11 Chapter 12.

Flora felt as bad as she looked, with her matted hair and rumpled clothes. Chris didn't come home last night and his number was not going through. She had also been calling Lily, who was not picking. She hoped it signified that the assassination attempt was successful. She ran a hand through her hair again.

Chioma had convinced her that Lily was the real problem that needed elimination, not Iyke. So she had sent Bulldog a description of Lily and address, telling him to go for her instead, then reassured him that she would indeed date him. Now, she simply couldn't understand what was going on.

She thought of her wayward mother's favourite quote; "Never start what you can't finish."

And of course her mother said that to men who refused to pay after having their way with her. She shook off the memory. She'd got to complete this plan. And she would. The madness of desperation glinted off her eyes.
