Senator Colette proposed to the Head of the Security to remain close to the Vice President as much as possible and know her paths and secrets. The Head of the Security was hesitant but figured out that Senator Colette was right. Vice President had changes that weren’t good and kept her away from her virtue. Vice President Ariana Marie was a strong-willed woman. She’s willing to do anything to get something in her possession. That attitude changed when she had her children. The Vice President matured into a passionate woman but gradually returning to her wicked character.
The Commander in Army followed Vice President Ariana Marie in her office. He was unsure if he heard the right thing, and if it was right. At first, he was reluctant to follow her order to confiscate supplies, but he has no power to object.
“Madam, Are you sure about your decision about the people’s supplies in the suburbs?” The Commander asked.
“I thought everything was clear? I need to regain the trust of the people. And I can only do it if we I show them good deeds. Once I get their support, the Cities will be back to normal, and everything follows.” Vice President answered
“What about the people in the suburbs? They’re part of the community, too.” The Commander replied.
“Are you doubting my plans, Commander? I’ll declare Martial Law to the suburbs immediately, so you’ll have the power to get their supplies.” Vice President stated.
The Army Commander apologized to the Vice President and moved out of the office immediately. Vice President Ariana Marie was left alone in her empty office. Vice President was hoping to get things better, and she’s ready to get it whatever it takes. If people can brutally kill anyone, then Vice President Ariana Marie would do the same. She’ll use her power to protect herself and her family’s well-being. The authority that gave her so much control, since the president got hurt, that she didn’t want it to give up. The head of the security ran towards the office soon as he saw the Army Commander walked the hallway.
Vice President Ariana Marie opened the TV and saw the news about the President’s condition. The report said that he was already stable, but haven’t opened his eyes. His body is slow to respond to medicines, and the first family was asking for continuous support and prayers. She was not amazed at what she saw, so she took out her phone and dialed an identified number.
“Hello?” Someone from the other line answered.
“Hi, Doctor. I haven’t heard from you in a while. Why did you change your number after my husband died?” Vice President replied.
“Vice President Ariana Marie.” The Doctor replied.
“Glad you can remember me. I thought you’ve completely forgotten me after I paid your very huge check.” Vice President smirked.
“What do you want?” The doctor firmly asked.
“Well, I need your help again.”
“No, not again. You, demon.”
“Really? Not even for your family’s life?”
“Keep them away from this.”
“Then you’ll do what I want.” Vice President Ariana Marie replied, but the Doctor hang his phone. Vice President was disgusted and dialed in another number. When a stranger answered on the other line, she said:
“Threaten the Doctor.”
At Maryland Hospital, things were better compared to other places in the country. There have been riots, but the Army assigned got a better grip on the situation. The Doctor that the Vice President talked earlier was about to check the President’s condition when his phone rang, and his daughter’s number appeared. He pressed the answer button, put it on his ear and heard screams.
“DAD!” The Doctor startled, but before he could speak a stranger talked.
“I’ll kill her if you don’t follow Vice President’s order. Work with the Police, and I’ll kill every member of your family.” The stranger immediately dropped the call.
The Doctor felt weak on his knees and sat on one of the patient’s seats in the hallway. His hands and sweat were cold. His chest was pounding hard and fast. He knew that the Vice President bait her again. The Doctor dialed in Vice President’s number.
“That woman is a psychopath.” The Doctor uttered while the phone was ringing.”
“Hi again, Doctor. I knew you’d call.” The Vice President answered.
“What do you want this time?”
“Kill your most prestigious patient.”
“The President? Why? I thought you were friends?”
“Yes, that’s why I sent him to you. I know you’re a great doctor.”
“Then why would you want him dead?”
“Because I need his power to control people. I won’t give up what I have right now, so follow my rules if you want your family safe.” Vice President hang up the phone, and Doctor sighed profoundly.
Vice President did it once when she ran as a Senator. On campaign period, she worked with several unknown people to kill his husband to gain people’s sympathy. She hired serial killers to shot his husband. Their marriage was on the rocks because her husband had an affair. On the other hand, she badly wanted to win the election because she didn’t want to be a disappointment to her family. Desperation and rage consumed her.
When his husband was in the recovery room, the Vice President asked the Doctor to put poison on his medicine in exchange for a tremendous amount of money. The Doctor was still a practitioner back then, and he was in need of cash. If only he didn’t need the money for her mother’s treatment brain tumor before, he would never agree to Vice President’s ruthless agendas. The Doctor secretly exchanged the medicine.
The attending nurse put in the medicine to the intravenous. After a few minutes, Vice President’s husband died. They sent the nurse to jail, and she paid the crime she never did. The Doctor’s conscience still bothered him. When the Doctor passed the licensure exam, he watched the Nurse’s family who had a tough life and sent groceries secretly.
Years after, Vice President now wants the President to die. She didn’t know that the Doctor was working at Maryland. When she was searching for another doctor to use at the hospital, he saw the Doctor’s name. Vice President Ariana Marie immediately called the hospital and told them to assign the Doctor to the President. Then she called her trusted serial killers to kidnap his ten-year-old daughter. The death of Senator Forbes, the Marauders, and the power that she have has consumed her. Vice President Ariana Marie was ruthless, but no one dared to stop her because of her money and influence.
CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO
The Head of the Security has been quietly standing behind the door, and he listened to everything that the Vice President said while she was talking to her phone. He was sweating, and his heart was beating fast. It was not the same person that he loved. Then Vice President Ariana Marie suddenly appeared behind him.
“How long have you been there?” Vice President Marie interrogated.
“I just got hear.” The head of the security lied.
“Why do you look pale?” The Vice President inquired.
“I… must be hungry. May I grab something to eat? I’ll call for a sub.” He reasoned out to get away from the Vice President and clear his mind. Fortunately, Vice President agreed, and the sub security replaced him.
After breathing some fresh air, The Head of the Security realized that Senator Colette was right. As much as he hated the idea of complaining Vice President Ariana Marie, but it was the right thing to do. She needs help. The Security Head immediately went to Senator Colette’s office.
“Do you have time to talk?” The Security Head asked soon as he entered Senator Colette’s office who was reading his paperwork.
