“Because technically, if dad doesn’t arrest anyone, you won’t have anyone to represent as a lawyer,” Aaron answered, shrugging his shoulders.
“It’s because of a case I am working on,” Mary said.
“Okay, mom. Can you just get this done with once and for all? What do you mean? I can’t take puzzles at this moment,” Antonella said.
‘I’m representing a client who was threatened by a drug cartel to take the blame for some narcotics. Do you remember the case of $10 million cocaine that was discovered on our borders months ago?” Mary asked.
Who didn’t know about the case? It had been televised on all national channels for weeks until the public started tweeting against its airing.
The encounter between the police and the drug cartels had turned out to be so ugly that three police officers lost their lives, and so did four cartels. Only one cartel survived.

“Excuse me,” Julia said, bringing back Aaron from reverie. She saw how he had stared at her, and despite being uncomfortable, she had somehow been rooted where she stood.“Are you new here?” Aaron asked, casually, for lack of something to say.She nodded. “Today is my first shift,” Julia answered before asking, “Is there anything you might need?” She didn’t want to divert from her work.“Not really,” he replied nonchalantly.“Good, excuse me now,” Julia said.“How was it today?” Lucy asked when the two were at home.“Not as bad as I thought it would be. Do you don’t know whom I met?” Julia asked.“Spill,” Lucy playfully demanded as she got comfortable on the chair.Julia answered casually, “‘Aaron Tide.”“Are you for real?” Lucy asked while looking at her suspiciously.

“You must have charmed the guy. He is never that silent,” Ben told Julia.“How have I charmed him when we barely talk. I only serve him and disappear,” Julia responded. She was fed up with Ben’s nagging of Aaron and her.“I don’t know, you tell me,” Ben answered, then added, “You must be really lucky and am jealous.”“Hahaha. Jealous. Why? What for?” Julia asked.“If he were gay, I would pounce on him as a lion pounces on an antelope,” Ben answered, and Julie began piecing things together.Ben was so obsessed with Aaron, not because he was jealous of the number of girls who clung to Aaron but because he wished Aaron was gay and would at least be interested in him.“Try your luck someday,” Julia said though she didn’t mean it.Erick was with some of his friends when he saw a text from Aaron asking to see him. He was the only friend of

He stood and walked into the captain’s office with his heart in his hands. He didn’t trust himself to keep quiet if nothing much wasn’t being done to ensure their security, especially now that his family was falling apart.“I know why you came…” the captain started before sitting down. He then was looking at Dennis thoughtfully.“I thought so,” Dennis replied with a force smile, but his voice was cold and distant, and the captain could tell that he was trying to be cool.“I have enlisted the help of a trusted private detective and some IT expert. The IT guy has been trying to track down the IP address from which the emails are sent, but it’s private,” the captain said.“On any other day, your sentiments would have appeased me but not today. The guy might execute his threats any day, and I will have no one to blame other than myself,” Dennis said.“I understand your

“Of course it is,” Sally said, screaming and punching Dickson on the chest.Nelly took that as a cue to run away.Julia got home and found that Lucy wasn’t around. She got to the bathroom to take a quick bath, and Aaron flashed before her eyes.“Not now, please,” she told herself, applying soap all over her body. Everywhere she touched reminded her of Aaron’s touch, and she felt herself craving for his touch.She had felt so good being touched by him, and she felt she needed his touch daily. Her mind went back to her ex-boyfriend, and she started comparing him to Aaron.John was tall, good looking and had a light complexion. It had been love at first sight, and John was everything Julia wanted in a guy until she found out he was gay.“Are you kidding me?” She had asked. She had applied for a job at a hotel, and as fate would have it, John had been in the same building with his lover. “Wha

“No. what about her?” she asked. Anything about the tide family was of interest to her, especially after Julia beat Aaron in the game. “Word has it that she has handed over her resignation letter. She said something about moving out of this place,” Sandra said. What do you mean? Lucy thought. How could that be possible? If the whole family was moving, was Julia even aware? Maybe not, she thought to herself. She would have mentioned it to me. “It’s the grapevine. We are still not sure about it,” Sandra said, and when she saw Mr. Gory, the firm’s manager, walk towards them, she told Lucy that she would see her later. Lucy reached out for her phone from her handbag and sent a message to Julia asking her if she had heard anything special about Aaron. “No. Why? Is everything okay?” Julia texted back. “I think so. No cause for alarm. I will talk to you tonight.” Lucy didn’t think much of what Sandra said unt

“I wanted to for you,” Erick said as he looked at her solemnly. He added, “I really want to get to know you better.”“Ask a question then,” Lucy replied, and Erick said that it would be fun if they played truth or dare.“Good point,” Lucy said.That was the cue Erick had been waiting for. He sipped his wine and poured more into Lucy’s glass.“Don’t feel shy. It’s just you and I,” he encouraged her.Lucy sipped more and more, and despite the fact that she started feeling drowsy, she couldn’t stop herself.“How close are you to Aaron?” she asked but immediately regretted it.She looked at Erick’s face, but he didn’t show any sign of being shocked.“He has been a good friend though I have been jealous of him,” Erick answered.He knew the only way to get Lucy talking was to spill a few of his own secrets.

“I am sorry, Julia. I know I messed up, but I will help you fix this. Please forgive me,” Lucy said.Julia looked at her sister, and her heart went out to her. She couldn’t stay annoyed forever, and if she did, how would that change what had happened?When Nelly had found out about her pregnancy, she was devastated, especially after realizing that she had been a mistress all along.“Aaargh,” Nelly had screamed, throwing the pregnancy kit against the wall.It had to be wrong, right? She couldn’t be pregnant, right? What was she going to do? How would she comfortably raise a child on her own?At the office, Dickson avoided her like the plague.
