Responsibility calls

"What's going on? What's wrong with the TV?" A female police officer asked her colleague.

"I have no idea, it suddenly began to act up," he replied.

"Look!" One of them shouted and pointed at the tv, making the others turn in its direction.

There on the screen was what turned out to be the CCTV footage of the whole incident at the cliff. The entire police station became silent as a graveyard as everyone's attention was solely on the tv. The only sound that was heard was Hailey and Alkira's voices arguing on tv.

The officers watched wide-eyed as everything unfolded. Starting from when the ladies jumped out of the window, down to when the police arrived.

"The young lady is innocent," One of the officers muttered.

"Who played this?" A senior inspector questioned.

His questions were accompanied by a series of murmurs as everyone came up with a theory as to who had the ability to hack the tv and play such a video.

"Silence!" the senior inspector boomed.

"Get the other lady here.

    "Megan," Hailey called, wide-eyed. Even Victor was in shock, he stared at Megan like she just lost her mind. "Why are you looking at me that way?" Megan asked, appearing confused at why they were looking at her like she did something out of the ordinary. "How can you smack a guy's bum that way?" Hailey asked. Megan smiled. "We are friends now, aren't we? Expect more," she said and winked at the duo, who stared at her like she had suddenly gone crazy. "Ahh, I almost forgot," Hailey said, bringing Victor and Megan's attention to herself. "What?" they asked simultaneously. "Why did that cop attack me? I find it weird that he accused me of murder without proper investigation and now he tried to hurt me," Hailey voiced out. "Well, he is just a depressed cop," Victor said. "Depressed? I'm not the cause of his depression and that day at the cliff was the first day I met him. So why would he attack me?" Hailey asked, confused. "Well, your family is related to the cause of his depres

    Hailey was discharged as she requested. Since the hospital belonged to her family, none of the medical practitioners could stop her from leaving as almost all of them were afraid of losing their job.Victor drove Hailey and Megan out of the hospital. After dropping Megan at her house, Victor drove back with Hailey in a comfortable silence. While Hailey was looking out the window, Victor was focused on driving. Looking around, Hailey noticed that they weren't going in the direction of her house, but Victor's."Aren't you taking me home?" Hailey asked and Victor glanced at her for a second and focused his eyes back on the road."Sleep at my place tonight," he said.Hailey, who was also uneasy with the idea of sleeping alone at home after witnessing Alkira's end, immediately accepted.Victor laughed"What are you laughing at?" Hailey asked, blushing."Your face," Victor replied.Hailey blushed profusely this time, she bent her head to hide her face from Victor."You look cute right now,"

    "Daddy, why is Uncle Victor on top of Aunt Hailey?" Rosaline and Frederick look at each other. "I told you to call him first," Rosaline muttered. "I just wanted to surprise him," Frederick replied. "Now, you are the one that got surprised," Rosaline said with an eye roll. "Mum, Dad. Can you remove your hand from my eyes, I want to look too," Tina requested. "You can't!" Rosaline and Frederick screamed at once. The couple who were lost in their own world heard their voices and immediately separated. "Finally," Frederick muttered and heaved a sigh of relief. They both removed their hands from Tina's eyes. Tina looked at the couch only to see Victor staring awkwardly at them and Hailey whose cheeks were reddened and was staring down at her toes. "This is not fair Dad!" Tima screamed. "What?" Frederick asked, confused. "You didn't let me look, now they are done," Tina complained. Victor and Hailey's eyes immediately went to her. Both stared at her in surprise. "Are you going

    NEXT MORNING "Good morning, sunshine," Victor greeted Hailey, on running into her in the living room. Last night after sending Frederick and his family off to bed, the couple decided to retire to bed too, since their time together was already interrupted."Good morning," Hailey replied, smiling.Victor held her and kissed her deeply."Ewwww, at least brush your teeth before doing that," Both heard Frederick say. Victor glared at him, Hailey coughed and cleared her throat."Good morning, Frederick. Swear you haven't done worse with your wife before," Victor told him, smirking.Frederick rolled his eyes and focused his attention on the coffee in his hands."I will be going to the company with you this morning," Frederick informed him."No problem, but you are not driving with me.""Why would I do that? I never want to watch your make out session with my sister again," Frederick said with a scrunched face.Hailey glared at him and folded her fist, gesturing to him that she will punch h

    "Megan, are you okay?" Hailey screamed and ran over to Megan leaving the door open.Megan lay on the floor nearly out of breath and stared outside. The male figure whose cologne fragrance she had breathed in, stared back at her. She immediately averted her gaze, her heart throbbing."Megan, what the hell is wrong with you?" Hailey screams."I'm…I'm fine," Megan replies even though she was far from it."Need any help?" A handsome young man asked from the door. His facial expression was blank and he seemed like someone that never smiled before, but then he had a friendly aura.Megan nearly fainted, on seeing him. She pushed herself under her table to prevent him from seeing her. But who was she kidding, she has already been seen."We are fine, thank you. Who are you and what are you doing on the private floor?" Hailey asks, unable to understand how a stranger was able to come up the floor."Oh, I'm here for the job interview. And I'm hoping to get hired." He stressed the last part as if

    "Mum, I won't be able to come back home today, I have to work overtime," Megan lied over the phone. After speaking to her, Megan hung up and lowered herself into the bed. After running into Vincent, Megan knew going back home was not safe for her mum and little sister. She decided to stay at a small roadside hotel. She knew that now that Vincent had found her, he would stop at nothing to find the remaining two people in her life and she was going to do anything to keep them safe. They do not deserve a family member like Vincent. She recalled her conversation with Vincent at the company."Where is my mum and little sister?" Vincent asked."Why are you asking me that? Aren't they dead?" Megan asked back. Even though her heart was pounding, it didn't deter her from trying to protect the people she had come to accept as her family."Don't play smart with me, baby. You know what happens when you do that. I'm still the same, I haven't changed," Vincent whispered, his breath fanning her ear

    "Not again," Victor muttered."I know what you are thinking, Victor. But I don't think that's what happened. Why don't you go check her house, while I search around the area," Frederick suggested.Without waiting to be told twice, Victor raced into the house and brought his car key then entered the car and sped out."Please, be safe, Hailey," Victor kept muttering as he drove to Hailey's house. His grip on the steering wheel was so tight that the steering wheel could break, his brows were creased. Finally getting to Hailey's home, Victor felt his head ache on seeing that the lights were turned off."Maybe she has gone to bed," He consoled himself. But deep down, he knew Hailey might not be home. Since he knew the password, he unlocked the door and entered. He slowly made his way to Hailey's bedroom, as there was no sign of her in the living room. Getting to the bedroom, he turned on the light, an empty room stared back at him, the bed was properly made, showing that no one had slept

    "Victor!" Hailey screamed. She shook him vigorously but there was no response. She kept calling out his name in fright, shaking him and even pinching him to wake him."Hailey," Victor called, as his eyes fluttered open."You…How could you suddenly fall and stop moving? How dare you frighten me like that?" Hailey cried and fell into his arms."Where is Megan?" Victor asked, making no attempt to console her."I'm in your arms crying and you are asking for someone else?" Hailey asked, tears running down her cheeks."Do I honestly mean nothing to you? First, you agree you ship me back to Las Vegas, now, you no longer care about how I feel," Hailey cried."You are very heartless, Victor." She hit his chest multiple times until he held her hand to stop her."Stop, Hailey. I do not have any time to waste," Victor said, hurting Hailey."So listening to me is now a waste of time?" Hailey asked.Victor rose to his feet and gently pushed her aside."Give me Megan's phone number," Victor requeste

    TINA You might say I made the wrong decision, you might say I needed a break from everyone, but I, Tina Mills say I don't. Yes, everyone close to me has hurt me in one way or the other, but getting hurt is one of the things that makes us stronger. I was finally at peace with everyone and held no grudge whatsoever against anyone, my past hurtful memories were forgotten and I no longer had a place to dwell. Oh, I almost forgot to mention. Liam and I were now officially married! Our wedding was tagged as the most expensive wedding in the history of Sydney! We moved into our new house, a house Liam and I jointly built to raise our family in. “Mama!” Blake’s piercing voice echoed, separating me from my straying thoughts. “What's up little man,” I bumped fists with him. “Grandma is calling you,” he pointed in the direction of the kitchen. My entire family and I were on vacation. Dad, Liam, Victor and Ryan were playing video games in the living room, mum, Tiffany and Aunt Hailey were i

    TINA It's been over six months since Lucas’ demise, six long months since everything died down. Lucas had been buried a day after he died. Liam was gloomy for a few days after his passing, which I didn't mind. At this moment, everything had gone back to the way it used to be before all the unfortunate incidents. Only a few things had changed, I was no longer the single spoilt princess of the Mills family, I was a wife and a mother now. “Mama,” Blake’s tiny voice resonated next to me validating what I had just said. “Blakey,” I smiled, pinching his nose. I picked him up from the floor and twirled him around. “Mama!” He giggled loudly. My little boy is now a year and a few months old. He has even started walking and spends half of his day going in and out of every corner of the house, he literally knows the entire house like his palms. “Where have you been Blakey?” I asked, settling down on the bed and placing him on my thigh. “I shall go down with Liar,” he giggled. “You mean yo

  • Her Accidental Billionaire Husband    Happy or sad?

    TINA Ever since that day Liam left the house to go find Lucas, I never felt comfortable. I was worried and uneasy. It was so bad that I couldn't even eat. Leah and Riley tried their best to help me calm down but I couldn't, I was just too worried. Each day I cling to Blake crying my eyes out. “Liam is a strong guy, he will definitely come back,” Leah sang these words like a song to me every passing day. Just yesterday, I was seated in the living room watching the door and waiting for the moment Liam would show up when the door was pushed open and Ethan walked in, alone. Seeing him walking towards me alone while he left here with many others filled my heart with uneasiness. “Where are the others?” I had asked. He sat me down and explained everything that transpired while they were out. “And Liam, where is he?” I asked, gazing at the door. “He decided to stay in the hospital with Lucas, he survived the hit.” I didn't know how to feel, It was all too much to take in and process.

    TWO DAYS LATER LIAM It's been two days now since Lucas got out of the Operation theatre, two days since he was put down on this bed, two days since he failed to open his charming blue eyes. I haven't had any sleep since the day everything unfolded, I haven't even gone home yet. Guilt was eating me up, for some reason, I kept blaming myself for letting things get like this. Lucas didn't deserve this, he got deceived. Marcus should be the one lying here in pain. These few days, I regretted pulling the trigger and ending Marcus that way. He had a way too easy death and I blamed myself for it. He deserved to gnash his teeth in anguish and cry out for help which wouldn't ever get to him. But sadly, I gave him an easy death. Sighing, I put my head down on the bed next to Lucas. “I should have tried harder to convince you. You wouldn't have chosen this path if I did that. I'm a terrible brother,” I cried. “Just open your eyes, Lucas,” I pleaded, grabbing his nearly cold hands. “Let go o

    LIAM One moment I was downcast and was about to cry about Lucas’ sudden passing, then the next, someone more shallow minded appeared. It broke my heart that he used poor Lucas this way and discarded him. I wondered if this would have been my fate if I never did a proper investigation into the cause of my father’s death. I stood still watching Marcus utter despicable words and confession of his multiple crimes. Each minute of standing there made me feel like shredding him to pieces but then I was powerless at the moment. When he revealed how he was indeed the one behind my dad’s death and everything thereof, I made a resolution in my heart at that moment. “Marcus’ blood will be spilled by me.” Anger and disgust bubbled inside of me with each passing minute, I watched him send out his men to attack Ryan and me. He stood at a distance watching us, probably to see how his men would rip us apart. In one swift move, I pulled out my gun from under my pants and pointed it at the men w

    LIAM “Do you still want to do it alone?” Ryan asked. His words made me pause in my tracks and turn to him. “I'll do anything to keep my wife and son safe, even if it means teaming up with you. I promised my wife I would get rid of Lucas and I'll go to any lengths to fulfill that promise.” Ryan stayed silent for a while, just gazing at me. “Are we going to capture Lucas or do you want to keep staring like you've suddenly fallen in love with me?” I asked, eying him unpleasantly. He snarled at me, then began walking away. I followed him. “There is no car available,” he muttered. Ethan and the rest of us had visited here prior to today and I knew there was a little garage behind the building, I also knew where the car keys were. We had taken a safety precaution of fleeing, just in case things went haywire. “Wait here, I'll go get a car,” I muttered. Walking into the house, I randomly grabbed a key and headed for the garage, the key turned out to be that of a Maserati MC20. I go

    Ryan I have been tracking my dad’s movement the entire time. My dad is someone who would do anything for the sake of his children. Considering how Tiffany wasn't his, but just my wife, I knew he was okay with using her as bait just to keep my mother and all of us safe. Starting from the moment they all agreed to use Tiffany as bait, I was upset, even mad that my gullible wife agreed to it. I mean, there is a possibility that she will lose her life in the process of being used as bait. I threatened to divorce her, just to make sure she didn't do it, but both she and I knew I wouldn't be able to divorce her. Earlier today, Tiffany suddenly went missing. It scared the hell out of me. I searched the entire house for her but she seemed to have disappeared into thin air and this was on the day I had found out my dad and the others planned to get Lucas. “They took Tiffany with them,” I concluded. Anger coursed through my veins and I rushed into my car. Instantly tracking my dad’s locat

    LIAM Things got all serious the moment we all got into the car. We had chosen one vehicle as it seemed more convenient and allowed us all to communicate easily. “What's up with Lucas, he hasn't made any move yet,” I muttered staring down at the screen that showed Luacs pacing up and down a shabby looking room. “He got a call earlier and is waiting for help to get to him. Help is already on its way to him,” Ethan said. “We have just a problem,” Victor said. “His men.” He fell for the phone call and thinks a rescue vehicle is coming for him. “How about we send the police to him?” Tina’s dad suggested, but Ethan and I were quick to push the suggestion aside. “He gets help from the police,” Ethan muttered. “You should have seen how the police tried to protect his impersonator the night I ended his life.” “That dude has the police backing him up.” “You didn't actually kill the guy, right?” I asked, staring at Ethan “You know, when you have loved ones to protect, you'll be willing

    LIAM I wanted to break the news of my sudden and urgent departure to Tina the moment I got home, but I didn't want to sadden her. The way she clung to my body, how she confessed her Love for me, all made me stall time. Even though I knew leaving was inevitable. I had planned with Ethan and the others on how to deal with Lucas and we came up with a plan to go away from our families while dealing with that Psycho. If we ever succeeded in capturing Lucas and keeping him in our house, it meant danger for our loved ones. Thankfully, Ethan had a hideout where he had hidden himself since the shooting incident to convince everyone that he was at the hospital. The moment Ethan and the others showed up and broke the news of my departure to Tina, her eyes became gloomy but then, she had that look of understanding on her face. The look that read “ I understand you're doing all these for me.” She had followed me into my room to help me pack up without saying a word to me. Facing my closet and
