Miron's storyBy Gloria's reaction, I could tell something broke inside her. She loved Rita like a daughter so she could not accept what I just told her. Little by little tears made their way freely on her riddled cheeks and she was balancing her head refusing to believe. - No, no, Miron please tell me this a bad joke. She is well at your house and I am begging you to take me to see her. I need to see her. - Grace... - No, you are lying! You have to be. Paul...Paul Smith was motionless as a stone, fixing me with wonder eyes. I am sure this is too hard to handle for them and I hate myself for breaking this news to them, but I had no choice. Grace was not talking anymore and her eyes expressed a sadness I had seen only at her son’s death. - Paul, please get it together. I need you to help me. - I am ok, son; just tell me what you need. - I need your connections in the Secret Services, someone that can help me locate Rita. - I will help you, of course, I

Miron’s storyAs I entered the warehouse everything was so quiet, a feeling of emptiness filled my heart. I was expecting to see her here, even though tied up, sad and tired but still here. I would have liked to rescue her, hold her in my arms, and assure her that everything is going to be ok. - Don't be disappointed Miron, we will find her. The good news is that she was here. See those bottles? That was water. So we are on the right path.- You are right Jack, it is just that I had this hope that this ordeal was finally over.- I get it. Don't worry I will do whatever stays in my power to bring her back to you. I knew Jack meant it and I have full trust in him but that doesn’t mean I am not worried. Rita could be hurt or worse she may not be alive anymore. I don’t want to sound too dramatic but she is with two crazy women out there and God knows what they will do to her. I can only pray that nothing horrible may happen until I find her. And I have to do it in time. I got used t

Miron's storyToday another riddle came on my phone. Jack hasn't been able to track them down again as Sarah never called. I guess she kind of figured this out as she decided to move Rita to another place. All this is making me crazy, not knowing what is going on, what if Rita can take this any further.Corrine, Sam, and Peter are also here. I needed Corrine to help me uncover the answer to the riddle. This time it is a little bit hard because it involves things from her past, things I cannot know. So I need Corrine's philological mind to help me. I trust her to read between the

Miron's story Receiving the last riddle was like a test to me. It was something I didn't know about my Rita but I am willing to find out. Paul promised to help with some intel about the situation. From my point of view, this is going to be very complicated. It seemed like we were starting from the very beginning. But I was counting on Paul's relations. This has to end well. We were waiting for everything to get started. I felt like this was the end of all and finally, Rita will come back to me, will come home. It was a long shot but I trusted Paul. Only half an hour had passed and I received the call I was waiting for my entire life.- Miron, good news my son. I spoke with one of my retired friends and he is willing to help. He knows pretty well one of the best agents of the Agency. I cannot tell you his name but he will definitely help.- No problem with names, I just want Rita back.- I agree.

Miron’s storyAll six of us remained petrified in front of the grave. We knew Pamela died in that car accident the night I met Rita, but we had no clue what so ever about her mother’s faith. Her name was Lucy and I see she had fifty-six years old when she passed away. I wonder what happened to her. What was her story?

Miron's story After one year… Hey, Noah, look what Daddy has here. Your favorite toy. Let's see where Mommy is. Rita was in the small garden she had set up in our backyard right next to the pool. She loved to grow and care for flowers. She had roses of all colors, peonies, and many tulips. She adored them and it seemed like little Noah too because since he saw her he started moving his little hands and feet. He was adorable. Let's see what Mommy is doing here. Rita was bent over the peonies and I intentionally pushed her a little and she fell on the wet ground. Noah began to laugh so hard with his tiny mouth that I was beg
Against all odds Has the jury reached a verdict?
Miron's storyToday Sarah was going to have a big surprise. The court had summoned her brother to testify. And besides, there's a second T-shirt sprinkled with Jenna's blood. Jack led us to it and from there to its analysis and the establishment that it belonged to Sarah was just one step.People were resuming their seats on the benches. The atmosphere, I didn't know why it was tenser. Maybe because the weather was darker outside. It wasn't long before Sarah was brought in and we then heard the echo of the bailiff's voice.All rise! The honorable judge Stone!We all rose as we always did. The feeling was still strange. Something was going to happen today, I was more and more sure of it. Even Michael mentioned to me that
Against all odds Who had the defendant killed?
Miron's storyJohn Maxwell came frightened through the benches right to the witness box, looking in all directions as if waiting for something to happen to him. I was really sorry to know him like that, to look at him and see that he has no defense.The fear was also that he had not seen the light of day in years, the taste of freedom probably since he entered that hospital. Of course, there were walks in the hospital yard but it was not the same.Like scared, he took the oath and took his seat. Again the defense had no questions. I can say that we were lucky that the lawyer didn't know the people and thus the time was shortened and it could only be in our favor.John, please tell us, who you are most afraid of?

Miron's storyAnd so the first bomb fell. We all watched Mandy dance with the baseball bat as if it were the most normal thing in the world. And that T-shirt that was presented and accepted as evidence in the file, was all my delight. From time to time I looked at Sarah, who could no longer find her seat in the chair next to her lawyer. I could say with all my heart that it was the final blow given to this criminal.The orthopedist managed to convince everyone that Sarah at the age of adolescence could easily have handled that bat and I would go even further and say that he also convinced the jurors. Their grimaces suggested many things and not exactly in favor of the defendant.Yesterday seemed to pass just as fast and today it was Father Maxwell’s turn to give statements. He had been summoned two days ago. The momen

Miron's storyThe whole room was already silent and everyone was waiting for Michael's answer. The answer was delayed but maybe he was preparing his ground. That was exactly what he did. He turned on one foot facing the jurors and then to the judge and with a sigh announced the expert's entry.Your Honor, I contradict the lawyer's words, and not only me but also the orthopedic doctor William Dale, also an occasional baseball player, in his free time but enough to tell us how things are. I know it was not quoted but I could not prove otherwise that the bat can be easily handled by a 15-year-old child.

Miron's storyThe days started to go by so fast that we don't even have time to breathe. Today, Rita's aunt, Darla, was called to the witness box. She came to us first. I offered to come and get her, but she refused. It was clear that she was nervous, but she would have to get over it and tell Sarah's relationship with both her parents and her sister, Lucy, in great detail.But she was very happy when she saw Rita again. They hadn't seen each other in years so they cried and hugged for minutes. They talked about Lucy, how much she loved life and how much she loved Rita. It's just that fate has been very hostile to them.Miron, Rita, I'm scared! It hurts so much to talk about Lucy that I'm afraid of making a mistake.

Miron's storyYesterday passed quickly. As we had agreed, we cooked together and fell asleep faster than we expected. Rita was really tired but they didn't need her today, so she just accompanied me. I still tried to get her to stay home to rest but she flatly and elegantly refused me.Love, my place is next to you for better or worse.

Rita's storyThe prosecutor's questions hurt me extremely, but I knew I had to answer them. That's the only way I could punish Sarah. It was cruel to remember everything I went through in that warehouse and then to all the places Sarah carried me over but if that was the only way to put her behind bars then I had little choice. Even the baby had become agitated. Instinctively I put my hand on my belly as if wanting to protect him. I kind of guessed what questions would follow.Do we understand, Miss Sinclair, that the defendant here kidnapped your mother and confessed to killing her?Objection! He is misleading the witness!
