2021-11-24 15:52:46All of this was disgusting. He squeezed the clipping tightly and caused some of the fragile paper edges to tug and tear. It's clear that Amanda Priston has a special relationship with Baron Priston. Whether the man was her husband or a relative, but he was sure that Amanda was the mastermind behind the murder of the Duffal family.
But to Calvin's frustration, he can't just use old clippings as evidence for Amanda's crimes. Indeed, there was the figure of Amanda, in a crowd of people watching the evacuation process taking place in the Gulf of Mexico. But maybe Amanda was just there just looking around like the others. The accusations against the woman were not strong enough to shift the charges against him on the woman. Not to mention the true identity of The Witness he can't reveal yet. That person was really very good at hiding. It could be that the figure of The Witness he is looking for is Amanda or someone else, who clearly has a strong be

It's as if all this weirdness hasn't finished looming over her. Gabe Anderson was found dead in her locked room after drinking tea spiked with insect poison. When found, the woman's mouth was filled with white foam and her face looked so pale it was almost white. Gabe Anderson's death momentarily shocked all of the trial participants, including the witnesses who previously claimed to still see Gabe chatting with them at breakfast this morning. The coroner has now brought Gabe's body for an autopsy along with tea and bug spray found in the backyard. Hazel lay her head down in frustration on her desk when she heard her secretary's voice inviting someone into her room. But for now she refuses to meet anyone. She had to evict her guest from her room immediately because she needed to calm down for a moment and think. "Your Honor Hayes." Hazel lifted her head and didn't seem too interested in welcoming her guest who was a man, well-dressed, friendly, and so

"I didn't know you were going to kill Gabe." Under the shade of a dark tree and relying solely on lighting from a garden lamp three meters away, the two people talked to each other. Seriously speaking about Gabe's death which wasn't actually caused by suicide. One of them had planned the death to escape their crime which would soon be caught by law enforcement officials if Gabe was left alive to testify. "At first it wasn't." Amanda exhaled roughly and then looked at her interlocutor with sad eyes. “Gabe is my favorite maid. I have treated her like my own daughter. Moreover she has same smile like Anna if she were alive now. But I had to do it.” The man snorted. “Your impulsive actions invite another danger. The plan is in danger of failing. Especially with Calvin disappearing like a ghost, we can't rely on him to be the scapegoat anymore." "Sorry." Amanda looked down regretfully. This kind of life was not the life she wanted. She was forced t

The funeral service for the Duffals did not take place at the Duffal residence and was carried out directly at the Seattle Church for various reasons. The police in charge of the case argued that the Duffal family's funeral service would attract the interest of civil society as well as journalists, so it was better to hold the funeral at the Seattle church and hold social gathering for the Duffal family's friends or relatives at their mansion after the funeral was over.Hazel had already guessed that a crowd of curious civilians would meet her in front of the church this morning and she should have left earlier to avoid the crowds that packed the churchyard. But because she was too exhausted last night, she made a reckless decision that resulted in her getting stuck in the car because of the long line of people looking for a parking space as well as people walking around the main road carelessly.Time and time again she looked at her watch just to sigh and complain tha

The decision to leave the car and cell phone among the thick bushes in the middle of the forest is definitely not the right choice for someone who is driving alone in the forest. Especially when it was night. The decision to leave the car and walk to find a way out of the dark forest was exhausting. But this is a different story if someone who left the car in the middle of the forest is a fugitive who is being chased by all law enforcement officers in Seattle. Including the FBI agents who have become so irritated by his attitude that he has been a constant troublemaker at the bureau since he joined seven years ago. But of course apart from having the title of troublemaker and rebel who often angers his friends, even his superiors, Calvin has always been able to show his credibility as a responsible agent. None of the tasks assigned to him have ever failed. Even though these tasks always reap controversy from various parties, but at least the task will end well in the end. It

She was sure that if she woke up it wasn't a coincidence. Usually she would not easily wake up in a quiet and deserted state like this. But for another reason, tonight she woke up in her new apartment room when there should be no one here but her.Refusing to be too defensive, Hazel then straightened herself and lowered her legs slowly from under the warm blanket. She looked around the dark and lonely room. There wasn't anything suspicious in her room like that night. The night when Calvin suddenly sneaked into her room and covered her mouth until she was scared to death.This apartment room is so quiet and serene. A few hours ago before she decided to go to sleep, she had missed Emily's noisy chatter. Living in this apartment alone feels like living in a foreign place. Especially with a variety of new furniture that feels very unfamiliar. Everything gave a strange impression on her mind which had just finished cleaning three hours ago.Tucked her hair that dang

Ignoring Hazel's cynicism, Calvin began his story with what little courage he had at the moment. He had not always been the kind of brave man who would easily be able to tell his past. If he is brave, he will not become an agent and decides to live in seclusion from the noise of the outside world which he thinks is too dangerous. He escapes from his miserable life to create a new life with new characters. Isn't he a coward? “The death of my parents left a deep wound, anger and fear in me. Even after the death of my parents I still try to live my life normally, but in fact I have never been free from that terrible shadow.” “You went to medical school,” Hazel snarled accusingly. She thought Calvin would just lie to her again with another boast. Having been lied to once—or maybe twice, wouldn't have caught Hazel off guard a third time. In her current sitting position that seemed so defensive, she was watching Calvin with piercing eyes filled with

Gulf of Mexico, 2014 Explosions broke out everywhere. Even though it was in the middle of a quiet and dark sea, the sound felt like the sound of lightning that kept on flashing without a break. Calvin felt this was the most failed operation he had ever experienced. If it wasn't for wanting to take revenge on Baron, he definitely didn't want to take part in the war of debacle that was followed by lawmen who only wanted to show off their strength. Look at the people who just an hour ago were joking and laughing loudly while vowing that after this they will party to celebrate their victory against the mafia. It seemed that their plan would never happen. Rado had just been shot dead by the enemy. The man who offered him scotch and roast chicken to celebrate their victory would in fact never wake up again to party. Instead, a party was held to honor him as a veteran who died on the battlefield. "Damn it! Catch got s

Hazel fell asleep with beautiful words filling her heart. Every cell in her body seemed to be vibrating madly because of Calvin. She repeatedly sighed Calvin's name in her sleep while thinking about the man's very warm embrace on her body. His stroked really amazing. The greatest part she ever had. But that was hours ago. Now that Hazel woke up, she was alone in her quiet and silent room. Just like yesterday when she entered this apartment for the first time, she couldn't feel any signs of life other than herself being left languishing. Her breath sounded louder in this silent room. She has been left for the second time. "Calvin." She knew the screams were in vain. Calvin had clearly left her after giving her a memory of a night that she would never forget. It seemed he had brought so much new color into her life that she had become so dependent on Calvin for a moment. Stroking the slightly wrinkled sheets next to her, Hazel wanted to convince herself

"Rick? I really didn't expect you to be here." They haven't seen each other in a long time. Maybe more than eight months after their talk in court. Rick then disappeared and never appeared in front of her again. Rumor has it that he has opened a law firm out-of-town specializing in criminal matters. “Hey Hazel, you look a lot better and—” Rick gestured at her bulging belly then smiled widely at Hazel's amazing pregnancy. "And what?" "And chubby. I didn't say you were fat," Rick said, looking innocent. Hazel immediately pursed her lips at those words. Lately many people say she is fat. Especially her annoying husband, Calvin! Oh my gosh, the guy kept rebuking her if she started eating sweet snacks at night. Whose fault is this though? Huh, that sucks! Even though having baby was her wish too. But he often teased her and made her grumble when he started talking about being overweight. “I always get annoyed every time I hear that word. So

Hiding among the tall tree trunks in silence and the drizzling rain that made his coat wet slowly was something annoying. This is not an option, it is a must. He had to wait there long enough for the person he was looking for to appear. But waiting is not fun. It's more like disgusting. He had never been this irritated by anyone before. And the girls he had seen playing in front of the terrace had been called in by a woman he didn't know. It wasn't Hazel of course. Hazel would always be with Calvin and would stick together like postage stamps and letters. And if the girls not been called into the house, he would have at least still had a more beautiful sight to behold than the dark surroundings and the occasional noise of the nocturnal beasts. A chill slowly began to creep over his skin from the wet coat he had been wearing for hours. He wanted to give up and go back to his warm car. But what if that person comes? Hadn't he been waiting for hours for that person? So he ignor

Pine street is very busy. The tourists crowded the sidewalk and were busy taking pictures with whatever objects they encountered on the side of the road. The colorful walls in front of the bakery, statues, walls full of disgusting chewing gum, even wooden benches on the sidewalk are also the targets of tourists to take pictures. There is nothing on pine street that doesn't look attractive to the tourists. Jason laughed amused at the strangeness that was happening in front of him. How ridiculous these people are, Jason thought giggling. It's better to take pictures with beautiful women in nightclubs than to take pictures with inanimate objects on the sidewalk who must be sick of them. Walking leisurely, Jason then turned into a narrow alley beside a nightclub. Today he was going to deliver a package to a European man who was stopping in Seattle on business. Once this area was controlled by a Mexican man who is very well known as the most dangerous mafia in this place.

Catherine was just about to tell the girls to go inside and clean up their toys that were scattered on the veranda when her instincts began to tell her of the dangers around her. Cautiously she swept her eyes all over Calvin's house. She looked closely at the giant trees in front of Calvin's house which suddenly looked scary to her. A gripping fear began to affect her brain so she quickly took action to lead the girls into the house. "Hurry in, your lunch will be cold if you don't come in soon." "What's on our lunch menu today, Aunt Kathy?" “Cheese burger with beef. Come on in quickly." "Yiippiee..." Emily shouted with joy and immediately dashed into the house. While the girls had trodden toward the dining table, Catherine was still standing in the doorway watching the area around Calvin's house that she found a little suspicious. The sound of rustling leaves suddenly increased Catherine's vigilance. Her eyes fiercely moved left and right, sca

Hazel stared at the modern-style two-story building in front of her, squinting. Before actually getting out of the car, she tried to make sure once again the address listed on the document was the same as the address written on the mailbox in front of the house. "Looks like this is her house." "Then let's go down." Calvin parked his car in front of the house and immediately stepped outside, taking a deep breath of cold air. Suddenly he became congested and also pounding because this house was their last stop before they could decide what to do next. As he and Hazel drove to the house, they had a discussion about what they would do if it turned out to be the Millers or if Millers wasn't the terrorizer. Thinking about it made him nervous. Previously he had also shown the cctv camera footage at the hospital to Hazel. According to Richmond's suggestion, he tried to watch the cctv footage again on his cell phone. And from the video he got a clue. Whether t

“I don't know if these kinds of things are necessary? Oh come on Calvin, I'm just pregnant, not invalid." Calvin didn't care at all about Hazel's long tirade ever since they came out of his house in the middle of the woods. Even if she didn't like his exaggeration or whatever he was doing to her right now, he would still do it. The people around them looked at them with confused looks and the rest gave them strange looks because he was so overprotective of Hazel that he had to hold her hand every time she took one step forward and even when climbing stairs. "You should be on bed rest, not wandering around the court." "Oh my God, I'm fine. My baby is fine too. No need to overdo it like this. After all I know this place as well as I know myself. Get your hands off it, Calvin! I can walk alone.” "Shut up Hazel. There's a rock in front of you, you could stumble." Hazel pursed her lips in annoyance and got even more annoyed when Calvin pulled her s

What does a man without a job usually do in the morning? Lazing in front of the house while enjoying a cup of coffee that is still steaming thin. The cold morning air lulled him along with the sound of rustling leaves that fell and littered his yard.But he couldn't really relax in this sitution. He had to think of something for his plan to take revenge on the judge. The last attempt to harm the judge had failed. Still he credited himself for sneaking into the hospital and creating such a mess that the bitch shuddered on the floor. At least it made his heart a little satisfied even though he failed to kill the judge. He thought that now his ambition had escalated from wanting to hurt the judge to wanting to kill the judge. Several of his colleagues told him yesterday at the bar that the judge had a big hand in changing his life. From an independent man with abundant money and a harmonious family to a poor ugly man who was abandoned by his family. If the judge hadn't made the

"Hey, am I bothering you?" At ten o'clock Hazel showed up in Calvin's garage to meet the man who had just finished checking on the cars. He quickly closed the hood as Hazel slowly walked towards him, avoiding the car repair kits that were splattered on the floor. "What's wrong with your car?" "There's no problem whatsoever. I just haven't made any repairs for them in a long time." Hazel's gaze swept over to Calvin's four cars neatly lined up in his garage. Two shiny-looking sports cars, a white Range Rover SUV, and a heavy track car with giant-sized wheels that were almost as big as her. “Nice collection.” “I like cars. Usually I will exchange it for a new one if interested in a new car. They haven't been here more than five years," Calvin said with a dismissive shrug. "I guess I'm quite sentimental about cars. The car I used to use was almost ten years old. And I don't intend to replace it until the car is completely broke."
DESPERATE LOVE NINETY
After a long day of playing and forgetting for a moment all the problems that have been haunting his life lately, it's time to get back to facing the reality of that damned terror. Even so, he didn't deny that he liked his new role now as an uncle and perhaps a father to the girls. After a very exciting lunch today, he and the girls then went to the woods. They walked past the big trees which looked scary to Zinny and Emily, but they wouldn't be afraid because he was with them. He would protect the little girls from monsters or anything that would disturb them. Looks really cool. Whereas before he didn't feel really cool when he spilled blood on the battlefield or killed someone he thought was evil. He actually felt cool when he was with Emily and Zinny. They made his chest expand with pride for being able to protect them as a formidable man. "Am I bothering you?" "Not really. Emma just fell asleep." The corners of his lips curved into a smile. He had
