Miss Caitlyn told Detective Garrett the very same thing she told Julian and Mr Walker and when he also showed her a picture of David Thompson, she recognized him as well.

“I'm going to register you under a witness protection, your involvement in this is quite deep and I can't have you being in danger or at risk…… I hope you would be able to boldly testify when the time comes,” Detective Garrett asked.

“Yes I will Detective, I owe it to those innocent souls” Miss Caitlyn said with teary eyes.

“Thank you so much, here is my card……call me when you feel you need to” Detective Garrett said as he stretched forth his card to Miss Caitlyn and she collected it.

“I will be on my way now” Detective Garrett said as he took his leave.

As he walked towards his car, he brought out his phone and called his colleague, she was an older colleague in her early 40s and had been in that precinct longer than other officers.

    Julian and Mr Walker were finally able to get back to the residence and I was halfway through the painting. I had to stop at some point as I noticed that it was taking a toll on me so I took a nap. I suddenly woke up to the sound of the door creaking and it was Julian trying to shut the door behind him.“You are back?….when did you get back?” I asked with a frizzy voice as I rubbed my eyes with the back of my palm, trying to get back into reality.“A couple of minutes ago……. I actually tried not to wake you up” Julian said as he returned to my bed side.“I guess you failed then” I said with a soft smile.I tried to get out of the bed but then Julian stopped me.“Oh you don't have to get out of bed…..you seem tired” Julian said as he sat right beside me and patted me back into bed. “Yea, I got stuck while painting and did a lot of brainstorming…..how was where you went to?” I asked.Julian hesitated for a while as though he had wanted to tell me all about it but something changed his

    David Thompson went about his business low key unknown to him, he was being tailed by someone working with Detective Garrett. His first stop was at a gun store as he parked his truck and got out, dressed in a pair of blue jean and a brown jacket with a face cap. The stalker parked at a distance and watched as Mr Thompson walked into the gun store but he couldn't take pictures as Mr Thompson backed him when he entered so he had to wait until Mr Thompson was done and came out so he could take a clearer picture of his face. A couple of minutes passed and Mr Thompson stepped out of the gun store and it was at this time that the stalker brought forth his camera and took pictures of Mr Thompson’s face and posture in different angles. Mr Thompson got into his truck and drove off and the stalker didn't follow as he had gotten what he wanted- the pictures. ************************************************* Marve finally drove back to Xavier’s residence after he had dumped and taken

    I was still amazed at another hint that popped up while halfway through the Elysium. I placed the half done canvas in the angle I had viewed it from when I was on the bed and I finally saw it, another cursive letter and this around, it was not just a letter this time around as it was “ for S”. I wondered to myself what the cursive letters “L for S” could possibly mean. I knew that the cursive letter “L” was the first word judging from the starting point of the painting and then the cursive phrase “for S” was the second just as the painting went up gradually. The first thing that came to my mind was that the letter L stood for Lexi and with the phrase, it became “Lexi for S”. But putting them together like this didn't make any sense to me so I assumed that there was going to be more letters or phrases to make it make sense. To some extent I pondered what this painter couple were thinking to have hiden letters and phrases in their strokes. I picked up my brush and continued painti

    Xavier came closer to where David Thompson was forced to kneel, swung the bat and hit him right on the stomach as he let out a shout. The spy stayed in his car and took pictures while everything was going on.“I am giving you exactly the taste of what I was given!” Xavier said and hit him again.

    I felt choked and I couldn’t keep staying in the hidden room being reminded of what I had just found out so I stepped out of the hidden room and out of the study. I found my way to one of the rooms and entered there just to clear my head for a while. A couple of minutes later, Julian and Frederick got back to the house and the first place they came into was the hidden room but Frederick waited back in the study. “Lexi’s not here” Julian said frantically as soon as he came out. “What do you mean she’s not here?” Frederick asked surprised. “She’s not in the room Fred” Julian said as he hurriedly picked up his phone.“Wait who you’re calling?” Frederick asked.“My father!” Julian said.“Whoah! Calm down…….it couldn’t have been him, we were just coming from his place right?” Frederick said.“What if he sent some peeps here while we were away?” Julian freaked out.“We haven’t even checked around the house……she could possibly be somewhere around the house” Frederick said.“She hasn’t l

    Not like I had much belonging but I went back into the study to pick up my painting supplies. I was so hotheaded and I didn’t just want to listen but get away from all of this as soon as possible. I stood there and looked at the painting that I was almost done with and pondered if I should take it along with me or leave it here half done, it would be useless to Julian half done anyway so what’s the point in taking it. Just then I heard the door open and I knew it was Julian so I wanted to hurry off again but he stopped me.“Please wait and listen to me……you are not even giving me a chance to say something or explain myself” Julian said.“What is there to explain Julian? Your father is the same man who plotted with you to kidnap and put me in danger, all because of some painting!” I yelled out. “Yes!!…..it’s true that I initially obeyed my father to kidnap you to paint the Elysium simply because I thought he just wanted to have a copy of the painting” Julian said.“You really expect

    Mr Blackwood was still running away with his injured shoulder, accompanied by one security guard as they met with the back up squad detective Garrett requested for. They rushed over to him and had him arrested along with the men that fought with detective Garrett and Frederick while some came upstairs to where we were and arrested the investors, the pharmacist, the hitman and Marcus. I ran over to Julian the moment I broke away from the hitman’s grip as I held Julian in my arms.“Julian, I am here, look at me” I said as I tapped him gently on the face so he could be conscious.Julian was too weak to say a word as he stretched forth his hand and caressed my cheeks and then became unconscious as though he had been withholding until he touched me before he gave up. I held Julian in my arms and wept and cried until then medics came up to where we were and carried him onto a stretcher and out of the building as I and aunt Melda followed them into the ambulance and drove to the hospital.

    Marcus stood there with the gun in his hands and couldn't say a word but as soon as he was about to mention a name, Mr Blackwood cut him short. “Dont worry, I know exactly who is responsible for your mother’s death” Mr Blackwood said.He took Marcus’s hand that held the gun and pointed towards David his father. “There, there…..the man responsible” Mr Blackwood said.Marcus became comsfused as to why the gun was pointed ti his father.“No, no….it can't be my father, its Lexi’s fault that my mother died” Marcus argued.“Of course not! He has been feeding you lies all along, I am sure he can say the same, hmm?” Mr Blackwood said as he looked at David knowing that David was at a stage where he would collect every blame and guilt. “Marcus, I am sorry….. I should have—I should have come clean about everything with you, I am so sorry son” David apologized sincerely.“No, mom wouldn't have died if you had listened to her! All of this wouldn't have happened if you hadn't brought Lexi home!

    “Sir, Marcus is at the door” the hitman said. “Let him in” Mr Blackwood said and the hitman let Marcus in.“Where is my son?” Mr Blackwood asked from where he sat.“Sir, he—he escaped and I am sure he is headed here with the detective as we speak, I am sorry sir” Marcus said. “That's okay, that was my plan after all” Mr Blackwood said and this had Marcus confused.“ I don't understand sir” Marcus said.“Why do you think I let you handle Julian?….I knew you weren't up to par to handle him” Mr Blackwood said. Marcus felt inferior and like a failure at this point.“Not to worry, you have other tasks to fulfill” Mr Blackwood said.Suddenly the fourth investor stood.“What is going on here? What is this crap about a detective coming here? Are you trying to pin us all here on purpose and run with our money?” the fourth investor asked as other investors wondered if this was true. “Of course not, you don't have to worry about the detective, he is a minor issue that can be taken care of” M

She didn't want us to let you know she was with us” Marve said.“I understand…..Where is she now?” Julian asked.“To be honest, I have no idea but she mentioned she was going to return to you when she had cleared her head” Marve said.“There is a chance she might be back at the residence” Fredrick said.“We must have missed ourselves while coming” Julian said and headed back into the car, followed by Frederick.******************************************I was not back at the residence yet as I was still trying to find myself so I had lodged in a motel.
