Chapter 20

"Mr. Leo...You are no longer needed in this facility. You have been stripped of your position here and we no longer want to see you here. You caused us a great deal of stress and made us unjustly accuse Miss Hart. Security please escort him out." Mr. Gaspard ordered

"Wait!!" I stopped them, "I would like to speak to him first."

Mr. Gaspard looked skeptical, "Fine. Make it quick." He finally agrees.

"Thank you."

They walk away giving us privacy.

"Why? Just why?" I ask the only question in my mind.

"I'm sorry." He mumbles.

"I know we haven't spent too long together and we don't know each other well, but why would you do something like that? Are you being blackmailed perhaps?" I press on.

"Lisa, just know that I am sorry for what I had done and the trouble I caused you."

"That's all you're going to say?"

He remains quiet.

"Please tell me who made you do it." I beg.
