Chapter 4 - Stand in for your sister

Linda raised a brow in an attempt to convince her cousin,"No! you can't go back to your father's house not after what he has done to you!".Linda's eyes turned red as she thought of all the ill treatment Monica's step mother Florence and her half sisters had put her through.

Monica was indeed the first daughter of Mr Liam spears,the spears household carried so much memories of her mother that she still considered it her home.It was only torn to shreds after the arrival of her step mother Florence."I just have to bare the pain,I have nowhere else to live as at now and Christina's treatment costs a fortune I need their help no matter what".Monica said with the lump of frustration building up in her throat.

In as much as Linda tried to change her mind she knew deep down that she didn't have enough funds to support Monica and herself.She had no other choice but to agree with her decision.Monica quickly dressed and freshened up,she collected all her courage and was headed for the spears Villa.

After she arrived at the spears household,she stood idol outside the villa's gate for what felt like forever gathering all her courage to face them.

It was really true when one said speaking is easier than action but she couldn't back down now,not after she had come this far not forgetting she was doing all this for her best friend who urgently needed her help.

She finally gathered her strength moved towards the door bell but before she could press it,a sound of a vehicle approaching her soon came in."Look who's here", Florence said as she alighted from her car with a prideful smile."Your the last person I thought would be standing in front of my gate,what brings you here?",it had been four years since Monica got kicked out of the spears household seeing her there again was shocking enough to Florence.

"I need some urgent help it's really serious", seeing Monica in such a fragile state gave Florence immense happiness.she narrowed her eyes as she pondered for a while thinking of how she could use her troubles to her advantage."Come in",Florence said coldly as she returned to her car.

Monica felt a little odd to how Florence easily agreed to offer her help,it hadn't crossed her mind that it would be this easy to convince her step mother into helping her.

"Honey your back early today",Liam cheered as he saw Florence approach him.His face soon turned cold as he glanced at who was coming behind Florence."What is she doing here!",Liam's voice suddenly became horse and cold.

Monica soon came forward, knelt down before Liam,"Father I need your help,I'm in great need of money to pay for my friend's medical bills".she had tears in her eyes and hoped for Liam to take mercy on her."How dare you legitimate child,who are you calling your father!",Liam shouted at the top of his voice causing all his other daughter's to quickly run down to where he was.

Seeing how tense the atmosphere was,Florence soon took chance of this opportunity as she thought of enforcing her plan."Monica money isn't that easy to aquire and you can't just pop out of nowhere and ask for it,you have to give something in return".she said as a evil smirk appeared on her face.

Her half sister Elsa who was watching the scene from afar soon came to a realization of what her mother was trying to do her lips then curved upwards as the thought crossed her mind.Elsa was engaged to the first son on the Hilton family at a very young age and had no idea what he looked like,but after hearing he became a cripple after being in an car accident she longed to end the engagement.

"A favour?"Monica asked as she looked puzzled."Yes you must stand in place of your sister Elsa and Marry Mr Fabian Hilton".
