He read the message and there was a picture of Olivia lying in a pool of blood on construction debris. He dropped his phone to the ground and sat down heavily on his chair with his heart broken and shattered into many pieces.

He got up and paced up and down the office recalling memories of Olivia when she was born. He was there at the hospital. Her mother held her briefly for what seemed like thirty seconds before passing away. The baby was given to him. He held her in his arms and looked at her beautiful cutie face. She kept opening and closing her mouth indicating she was hungry. Next, he heard her cries. A nurse prepared a baby's food and brought it to him to feed her.

He fed her and put her to sleep. He took care of the paperwork and brought her home but his wife, Eva, did not want the baby in the house. She will not even look at her. Jonathan was just a two-year-old boy and Camila was still a baby. With his wife's refusal to help him take care of the baby, he did what he though

    She was not sure what was worrying her the most, the fact that Olivia was dead, the fact that it was her fault or the fact that she didn't know where to find her husband. She left her room and found Camila still standing in the corridor. She walked past her and she wondered what was happening. She followed her and realized she was going out of the house. Unable to follow her. She went back upstairs and knocked on Jonathan's door. "Please open it?" she cried."What is it Camila?" he said as soon as he opened the door."Mum just left the house," she informed him with her hand holding her belly."So?" he asked surprising Camila."Jonathan what is happening in this house, It is past 10 pm, Dad is not home and now mum has also left the house and you comfortably ask me this question?" she replied angry at his unconcerned behaviour."They created their problem so let them fix it. What has that got to do with me?" he replied."Jonathan what are you talking about?" she asked."Dad is not hom

    At the Carter's Ethan decided to get serious with Jacqueline knowing Olivia was no more. He sent her a message and she called him immediately. They spend the night chatting and Ethan felt it was a good distraction at the moment.The next day, at the Garcia's, Jonathan was awake getting ready for work. When he came down to the living room and headed for the front door about to step out of the house, the servant approached him and asked him if he would wait a while for breakfast."No, I am already late," he replied and went out the front door with the servant watching him get into the ride he had requested. She closed the front door and went back to the kitchen to continue making breakfast. Jonathan had only done fifteen minutes of his journey when his phone started ringing. He checked the caller ID and it was from the office."Who is at the office this early to be calling me?" he thought since it was just 5 in the morning. He answered the call and frowned. "Hello?" he said. "Please

    The call dropped and the phone started ringing again. Just then a hand touched him on the shoulder. He turned to find out who it was and frowned."Geez!" he exclaimed and got up from the seat."Who are you?" he asked looking at the strange-looking man in a baseball cap, shades and a nose mask. "Come with me," said the person."I am not going anywhere with you. Who are you?" Jonathan asked again looking at the person's eyes.The person does look familiar but he was wondering who the person was and why the disguise."I will tell you once we are outside," replied the person and the voice sounded familiar too. Jonathan looked around and followed the strange-looking man out of the hospital. He realized he was walking towards the hospital's parking space. He followed occasionally looking around to ensure he was safe. He went to a parked SUV with tainted glass and opened the door for him. Jonathan looked around, looked inside the car and back at the strange person. "Don't worry, you are

    "He tried to take his own life," Jonathan replied and Camila's hand flew to cover her mouth in shock.'What happened?" she asked after she had calmed herself down."I don't know. Maybe out of guilt for how she treated Oliva," he replied. "What do you mean?" Camila asked. "Wait did I not mention to you Olivia is our half-sister?" he reminded. "You did but why will Dad want to take his own life because of that?" Camila asked already feeling there must be another reason her father would want to do that to himself. "Camila, if you have a child you ignore all her life and when she shows up at your doorstep, you turn her into a house servant. Treating her like she wasn't human and when she got married by fate, you allowed your partner to destroy her marriage, will you be able to bear the shame when the people you adore find out?" he asked. "Well, it is shameful but unless Olivia is dead I don't see why that would be a reason for him to attempt suicide. I agree he messed up but that is

    "First Olivia and now Camila. I will be next if I don't leave this place. Crazy family," he said and entered the requested ride heading for the airport. Jonathan arrived at the airport and went through the checking. He was in the waiting area ignoring the multiple calls from his mother and the lawyer. His flight number was called and he decided to send a message to Camila.Dearest sister, I am sorry I chose to leave this way but with everything happening, I don't think I want to stay around any longer. Take good care of yourself and if you get the chance also leave. Trust me, you will be better off on your own than being with our parents. Tell mum, I will call her when I get to my destination. I love you, sis. take care of yourself. He typed and sent it to her. He stood to his feet and looked straight ahead of him as if giving the city one last look. He grabbed his small bag and headed for the plane. He got onboard and sat close to the window. He put his phone on flight mode and pla

    "I would love to," Jacqueline replied."We have a wedding to plan," Mrs Carter said with excitement in her voice."Yes we do," Jacqueline said with a smile at the other end of the call.The call ended for both parties and Jacqueline quickly called her father waiting for the driver to pick her up from the agency, where Ethan had dropped her off."Hello sweety," came Mr Green's voice on the other end of the phone."It is done. We are in," she said with a smile."That is good. Let's make the wedding grand. That way we will have the whole world behind you when we strick," he said."Yes Dad, that is perfect. I hope it will be a show because I don't want to marry this guy for real. Hrr," she said making a disgusting face."Really, I thought you liked him," Mr Green asked."Yes, he did attract my attention and I wanted him but he is a home guy," she replied."Home guy? What do you mean?" Mr Green asked."You know, the family-oriented traditional men. With everything I did, I had to drug him

    "This can't be right? Why would Mrs Garcia have her daughter kept away and report her missing?" he asked looking at the information before him.He spent his entire night going through one file after another and finally called in an expert to trace the accounts that were used in making the transfer to Camila's account and also for paying the man found dead at the location. The two men sat behind the laptop early hours of the morning working. The man was done and he turned to face the lawyer. "Okay, whoever did this must be very good. Everything traced back to this account as the original account," he said pointing to an account on the screen."Multiple ghost accounts were created behind this account to make the various payments. On the surface, tracing the accounts would bring you to this account making it look like all payments were made from the account with the ghost accounts," he explained. "Don't you think, the real culprit could fake this?" the lawyer asked. "Unless the culpr

    "Camila tell me, who sent you that money?" Mrs Garcia asked and Camila went silent alternating her gaze between the lawyer who was looking at her and her mother."What money?" Camila asked wondering why a question would be directed to her suddenly. "A week before you said you were leaving for your new job. If I remember correctly, you mentioned receiving some money from Mrs Carter," Mrs Garcia reminded."Yes, I think so," she acknowledged with a frown retrieving her phone from her bag. She quickly unlocked her screen and checked the notifications on her bank transactions. She found the notification but was surprised to see her mother's name. She scrolled up and down the received messages but none showed she had received anything from Mrs Carter."This is strange?" she commented in shock."What is strange?" the lawyer asked. "I thought I had received some money from Mrs Carter before. A huge amount of money was transferred to my account but I don't see it anymore," she replied. "Me

    Ethan knocked and entered Camila's room and closed the door. The moment he closed the door, Camila came to him and kissed him. Ethan froze and for a moment didn't know what to do. She was heavily pregnant and pushing her felt like a terrible option. Opening the door was also not a good idea, what if Olivia sees them? She might misunderstand the situation. Ethan held Camila's shoulder and held her at arm's length pulling away from her. "Get a hold of yourself. I am neither your boyfriend nor husband. Do you go about kissing every man you are attracted to on the street? Have some dignity and respect for yourself. You make yourself too cheap and that is why you never attracted me and with this attitude, you will not attract any good man out there," Ethan said in one breath to Camila looking very angry. "You think I am cheap?" Camila said almost on the verge of tears. "It was one thing to be cheap and another to act like one. You are not cheap, you just present yourself as one," Ethan

    At Mr Garcia's home, later in the day, Mr Garcia heard a knock on his door and he went to answer it. It was Mr Carter and a young lady. He invited them in and ushered them to the living room. "You are welcome," Mr Garcia said and Olivia stood to her feet looking at Mr Garcia.Mr Garcia looked at the young lady wondering what she was doing."Daddy," Olivia said and Mr Garcia stared at her."Olivia?" Mr Garcia said."Yes," Olivia replied."How? I saw the image, I.....I....," Mr Garcia said alternating his gaze between the lady before her and Mr Carter. "Mr Carter found me and saved me," Olivia replied and Mr Garcia instantly became emotional.Mr Garcia covered his mouth with his hand and uncontrolled tears began to fall from his eyes. Olivia got emotional too and hugged him."Forgive me, my daughter. I didn't protect you as a father. I abandoned you and watched while people treated you badly. I don't deserve you. I am so sorry," Mr Garcia said while hugging Olivia."It is okay, Dad. I

    The next day, a Saturday, the news channels were hit with shocking news of Mr Carter being alive. Mr Garcia was sitting behind his TV when he saw the news of Mr Carter being alive. His eyes widened. "Isabella, come quick," Mr Garcia shouted from the living room."What happened?" Isabella asked as she descended the staircase into the living room."Look," Mr Garcia replied with his eyes fixated on the television set as he pointed to the screen."Mr Carter is alive?" Isabella asked in shock."So who did we bury?" Isabella asked and Mr Garcia shrugged his shoulders.Isabella sat down and Mr Garcia increased the volume to listen to what the reporter was saying."The city of New York woke up to an interesting news about Mr Carter the well-known billionaire whose burial service we held at the church a couple of months ago and later sent to the grave to be buried to be very much alive. As you can see behind him, he was supported this morning by one reporter when he was exiting the courthouse

    At the prison, Mrs Carter was told he had a visitor. She was so happy. She left the prison yard teasing Mrs Garcia and Jacqueline."You see when you marry the right man. Everything works in your favour," Mrs Carter said and left knowing Mr Carter had come to get her out. Mrs Carter entered a room and frowned seeing the person who had come to see her."Who are you and what do you want with me?" Mrs Carter asked proceeding to the provided seat."Hello, I am a representative of Mr Carter. He asked me to give you this," the lawyer said and Mrs Carter smiled."Aww, my handsome hubby. I know he would always come through for me," Mrs Carter said and took the envelope from the man as she sat on the seat opposite the man.She quickly opened it to see the content. A white sheet came out and she frowned seeing the title on the sheet. DIVORCE. "I would advise you not to give him a hard time but just sign your part and you will be promised a peaceful day in prison," the lawyer said offering Mrs

    Mr Garcia was immediately shuttered. His wife will be in prison for 15 years. "This is all my fault. I failed to put my feet down as a man and allowed all this to happen," Mr Garcia thought unable to get up from his seat. He watched as they took his wife away to begin her jail sentence. "What does this mean?" Jeremy asked Mr Carter. "I don't have to do anything. The properties will come back to Ethan," Mr Carter said. "Jeremy, you and Ethan have come a long way. I know you had your difference from college but I beg you to be a better person than my son is. Aside from honouring a great woman, he did something great for me, I chose Olivia for Ethan because I believe, that with Olivia, Ethan would be a better person. Just forgive him and let's move on as a family. I appreciate what you did. Standing for what is right despite family relationship," Mr Carter said to Jeremy."It wasn't a difficult decision to take. Growing up, I heard some stories about my uncle even though I didn't kn

"Okay, this case is adjourned till late afternoon," the judge said.The judge left and the courtroom became noisy. Mr Carter stepped out followed by Ethan, Olivia and Jeremy. "With the way things are going how do think this would end," Jeremy asked Mr Carter. "Well, at least the side of Mr Martin and Mr Green is clear. My wife and Mrs Garcia may go down together. They worked together on this," Mr Carter replied "Will you reveal your identity and testify against your wife like you earlier planned?" Jeremy asked. "It may not be necessary with the way things are progressing but if anything changes, I will," Mr Carter replied.Just a distance away from Jeremy and Mr Carter, Ethan was also engaging Olivia in a conversation."I am so sorry for everything you went through," Ethan apologized.

    "Mrs Carter found out that Mrs Garcia had filed the case against her and Mrs Carter decided to teach Mrs Garcia a lesson. The kidnap was on the stage and Mrs Garcia was framed. The documents here prove, that all the payments made from Mrs Garcia's account were false. Exhibit D shows Mrs Garcia's statement from the bank. The two documents were printed days and you can see, in one document, the numbers were manipulated to make Mrs Garcia look guilty," Mr Wilson said.The judge looked at all the documents presented. "Council, what do you have to say in defence of your client?" the judge asked"My lord, thank you. My colleague presented a lot of facts with evidence to prove his point. I must say he presented a convincing story but here are the questions; Mrs Carter and Mrs Garcia had conversations on the phone had always been about the welfare of their children. It was true Mrs Garcia misunderstood the late Mr Carter's choice of a bride for his son and assumed it was her daughter, Ms C

    Ethan thanked the servant and left for his room. In his room, he sat on the sofa in deep thought of everything his father had told him. Ethan realized when it comes to life and living it, he fails to think on his behalf. He rather allows close relatives to think of him. In his anger, he never gives the one who offended him a chance to at least explain. Ethan lay in bed recalling lots of things that had happened in his life and how he handled them. Unable to sleep, he got down from his bed and exited his room. He wanted to go to Olivia but looking at the time he decided not to disturb Olivia. He heads for the balcony. The light on the balcony was off and the city light was the only light providing some visibility to the balcony. He entered the balcony and found Olivia sitting on the chair. He sat next to her and took her hand in his. "Olivia, I am sorry for how I treated you when we were married. I never protected and never listened to you. I caused you more pain than I claimed to lo

    "Ethan, I am sorry for all the trouble I caused you during our college days. They were not deliberately done," Jeremy apologised and the two hugged each other. "Ethan, please stay and work with me," Jeremy requests and Ethan obliges.Ethan put aside his resentment towards Jeremy and they did a great job at the company together. All the guards Mr Martin brought on board to monitor everyone were sent away. The guards were unhappy but since they didn't have any contract with the company and the one whom they had a contract with had been arrested, they had no option then to leave. The operations of the company were placed back in the previous working system. Employees who were terminated by Mr Martin were all called back and compensated for the injustice done to them. While Ethan and Jeremy handled restoring the operations of the company, Olivia was tasked with handling the new client's request.It was soon 6 p.m. and Ethan asked Olivia to call it a day while he stayed back with Jeremy t
