Crystal paced around her bedroom as she contemplated whether or not she could trust Sara's lawyer and give him a call to confirm if the Will was legit.
He has looked like be wanted her to call him, or was it Sara's plan? She mused as she bit the fingernail on her left thumb.
Call or not call? She mused, and after a moment she decided that life was all about taking risks, and the bigger the risk, the greater the reward.
Although she hadn't anticipated this when she took up the job, but if it was true that Sara had made her the sole beneficiary of her Will, then she had to come up with a plan to secure it.
Harry didn't have to know about this. If she confirmed that she truly stood a chance to inherit Sara's wealth, she could easily get rid of Sara, get her remaining money from Harry, and then transfer all of Sara's assets to herself before absconding, Crystal thought with a smirk.
Without wasting more time thinking about it, Crystal picked up her phone and dialed Amos' line.
"Hello! This is..."
"This is Sara's daughter, Crystal," Crystal interrupted.
"Oh!" Amos exclaimed, glad that she had called as he had hoped she would.
"Yeah. I figured I should give you a call so you would have my number too, since you didn't ask for it," Crystal said easily.
"That is nice of you," Amos said, and waited to see if she would say anything else while Crystal also waited to see if he would speak.
After some seconds, Crystal cleared her throat, "Uhm, if you don't mind me asking, how long have you been working for Sara?" Crystal asked as she resumed pacing.
She needed to determine how loyal he was to Sara before saying anything that might give her away.
"It has been years. I've known her for twenty-eight years. I met her while she was pregnant. But I only started working for her recently while she was trying to find you," Amos explained since the first time he had met Sara, he wasn't her lawyer and then she had left the country and had only returned now to find her daughter.
"Oh, I see," Crystal said, thinking that if he had only recently just started working for Sara then he might not be all that loyal to her after all.
"If you don't mind me asking, don't you think she has another attorney? I mean someone like her can't possibly have not had an attorney all these years. I'm just curious to know why you are the one who drafted her Will when you haven't been her Lawyer all these years and you possibly don't know about the other properties she owns over there," Crystal said easily and Amos' lips twitched in amusement.
Sara had definitely given birth to her own kind. He could hear the greed in her voice despite her attempt to hide it.
"The Will is real," Amos said, knowing that was what she really wanted to know.
"I don't care about her money..."
"Are you sure you don't?" Amos asked, and Crystal narrowed her eyes.
"What do you mean?" She asked and Amos glanced at his wristwatch since he was pressed for time.
He had a plane to catch in an hour and he needed to make a couple of calls before disappearing.
"Don't play games with me, Crystal. I want to help you, but if you're going to waste my time by playing games, then we shouldn't be talking," Amos said firmly since he had nothing to lose whether or not she chose to tell Sara what he had said.
He would be long gone before Sara would find him, since she had no idea where he was going with his family.
Crystal paused her lips, should she trust him or not? Was this a trap?
"Help me? What do you mean?" Crystal asked with interest.
"Your mother isn't who she claims to be. She wanted me to draft out a fake Will but she doesn't know that Will is real. She plans to kill you after harvesting your liver...."
"Wait! What?" Crystal exclaimed, acting like she didn't already know it.
"How can you say that about your own client?" Crystal asked and Amos shook her head. n--OvelBIn
"I guess we have no business together. Have a nice da..."
"Wait! What do you want? Why are you telling me this?" Crystal cut in before he could hang up, wanting to know if he was telling her this because he wanted something from her.
"Because I would hate to see Sara do that. I might be corrupt in my own way, but I don't want any blood on my hands. I don't want to be a part of her crimes. You have the Will already, so you can do with it what you want. Also I don't know what she might have told you, but you should know that your father is alive and you have a twin brother. Your father's name is Aaron Jonas, and your brother's name is Harry Jonas. I will send you someone's number and she will help you get in touch with them...."
"What am I to do with all these information?" Crystal asked with false confusion.
"Do with it what you want. If you want to be safe, I suggest you reach out to your father and brother. And no matter what you do, do not trust Sara. She doesn't have good intentions for you. This might be the last time you hear from me. I've told you all I know. Do well to tell your twin brother that I saved your life by telling you all this," Amos said, hoping that would be enough reason for them not to come after him.
"Why the last time? Are you going somewhere? How do I get to own all these if something happens to Sara and you're not here? Where are you going?" Crystal asked with a frown.
"Take my complimentary card to the law firm, and you will be directed to someone why will handle it," Amos assured her.
"Aren't you scared that I might tell Sara all you have told me?" Crystal asked with interest.
"Do what you want with the information I have given you. I have nothing to lose, but I can't say the same for you."
"I don't know what to say. Thanks for telling me all this. I'm very grateful," Crystal said and Amos nodded.
"If you are grateful, then make sure you stay alive and don't die by Sara's hands," Amos said, thinking about how much mess he would be in if Sara killed Crystal and Harry and Thomas Hank decided to find him because they believed he was part of it.
Amos glanced at his phone when it beeped with an awaiting call notification from Wilson Peterson.
"I wish you goodluck. I hope you don't forget what I've done for you. Put in a good word for me when you meet your brother," Amos said before hanging up to receive Wilson's call.
Once the call ended, Crystal smiled. From the sound of things, Amos was really being honest with her. It didn't seem like he was on Sara's side one bit.
If the Will was real, then all she had to do now was kill Sara. She didn't have to report any of this to Harry.
Harry was wealthy after all, and she was certain that neither Harry nor his sister needed Sara's money. She needed it more than them, and since she was taking so much risk by doing this job for them, it was only right that she reaped the benefit too.
All she had to do now was find a very natural way to kill Sara. She would take out Sara before Sara had a chance to do anything to her, Crystal decided.
