Andrews took the address and headed for the hotel. Ethan sat in the back seat browsing through his phone when his hands froze. He blinked twice and kept looking at his phone screen.

Andrews was about to make a turn so he turned his gaze to the mirror on the side to check for an oncoming vehicle. In the process, he caught briefly Ethan's face in the rear-view mirror. Returning to focus on the road after the turn, he looked at him again in the rear-view mirror to confirm what he had seen earlier.

Ethan was looking at something on his phone and he could tell whatever it was, was making him angry.

"Sir, is everything alright?" Andrews asked trying to find out what was happening to him.

"Nothing important, just drive," Ethan replied not taking his eyes off his phone.

Andrews could tell from Ethan's body language he was looking at something he didn't at all like but since he was not ready to share, he could only focus on his driving. They soon arrived at the hotel.

"Sir, we are here

    "So, I did some investigation and found something I want you to also look into. There is a third person in this crime," he began and Davis was very interested."What did you find out?" he asked and the lawyer placed some documents on the table for them to read. Davis and his boss picked up the documents and started going through them while the lawyer sat down patiently waiting for them to finish."Interesting," Inspector Davis commented."How did you come by this information?" the boss asked. "I can't disclose my source of information to you but this is evidence that Mrs Garcia is innocent. Someone is manipulating the system," the lawyer pointed out. "When you say manipulating the system, what do you mean exactly?" the boss asked looking at the lawyer with a questioning gaze."Someone in the system is leading us to false information," he replied making sure he didn't reveal what he had found out."I see," replied the boss who appeared to be more relaxed now unlike when he had first

    She stepped out of the car wearing a crop top with puff sleeves and a handkerchief skirt. She smiled staring at Ethan as she walked towards him from the shed where she had parked her car. "Is that how to greet your wife-to-be?" Jacqueline said striking a pose and resting her hand on her waist. "What was that about?" Ethan asked coldly "What do you mean?" Jacqueline asked closing the gap between them. "The interview," he said "Oh, that," Jacqueline said and got closer to Ethan placing her hands on his chest. Ethan put both hands into his pocket, staring at Jacqueline standing in front of him, almost resting on him. "Jacqueline, I keep my personal life out of the public eye. So why?" he asked still with his hands in his pocket. "I didn't know about that. You already know I am a public figure and someone took a picture of me and you entering Carter's restaurant. That was what brought about the interview. I couldn't say no," she replied wrapping her hands around his neck and tilti

    At Garcia's, Mr. Garcia answered the door when he heard a knock. He immediately frowned seeing who was knocking on the door. "We are here for Mrs. Eva Garcia," announced the officer. "What for you?" Mr. Garcia asked "She has been found guilty of kidnapping Ms Camila Garcia," announced the officer "How was she found guilty? We have not been to court so how is it that judgement has already been passed?" Mr. Garcia questioned "Mr. Garcia please step out of the way so we can do our job. If you have any concerns you raise them later. For now, we have an order to arrest Mrs Garcia," the officer replied and gave Mr Garcia an envelope. Mr Garcia opened the envelope and brought out the paper inside and his eyes widened when he read the court order. "How is this happening?" he thought and the officers pushed him aside and entered the house. Asira was coming from the kitchen towards the living room. Mrs Garcia was also descending the staircase when she saw her husband standing at the fro

    He dropped to the ground on his knees and fell flat on his face. Camila screamed seeing the gunshot wound on his back. Isabella, Mr Garcia and Inspector Davis ran towards where the lawyer had fallen to the ground from where they were standing, all wondering what was wrong with him.Inspector Davis scanned the entire environment but there was no sign of movement. He was wondering where the gunshot was coming from. Isabella got to the scene and held Camila who could not stop screaming at the horror before her. "Call an ambulance now?" Inspector Davis said checking the lawyer for a pulse. Mr Garcia quickly fetched his phone and dialled 911. He spoke to the operator and was given their location out when his shoulder was shot. "Ahhhhh!" he screamed and also fell to the ground."Get down," Inspector Davis instructed. Some officers moved to the scene quickly seeing what was happening and moved the lawyer's body from the spot to the station. Isabella held Camila leading her to the station

    Inspector Davis's phone rang interrupting the conversation. He excused himself and answered the call."Inspector Davis, where are you?" came his boss's voice who sounded angry."At the hospital, sir," he replied "What! Are you ill?" he asked "No sir, we had some casualties," Davis reported. "I want you back at the station now," he commanded"Yes sir," he replied "Make sure you come with the three officers you dragged with you," he added "Yes, sir," Davis replied and the call ended. He went to the ward where Camila and Mr Garcia were lying on beds. Isabella was in the room with the two."How are they doing?" he asked "They are both still sleeping," Isabella replied sitting on the sofa inside the ward for two. "Okay, I am going back to the station. Here is my card. If anything, call me," he said giving Isabella his card."Okay," she replied taking the card from his hand. Inspector Davis went to the word of the man who had shot the lawyer and Mr. Garcia. The two officers were st

    As they headed for the exit going into the reception, it dawned on Mrs Garcia, the whole thing was a set-up. A perfect trap. Isabella followed them to the reception and stopped at the waiting area. She stood there helpless as she watched the police dragged Mrs Garcia out of the hospital in handcuff. Mrs. Garcia stopped struggling with the officers as she realized the whole thing was trapped and she fell into it. "How did all this start" she thought.She recalled the day she walked into the same police station and reported Mrs. Carter. "I started this game and now it is game over for me," she thought as the officers put her into the car. The car drove out of the hospital compound back to the police station with Mrs Garcia sitting quietly in the back seat with her head lowered. Silently she cried within herself. She now regrets ever getting involved with Mrs. Carter. Her entire family is now in a mess. Her daughter is pregnant, her husband is lying on a hospital bed together with h

    Olivia on the other hand was getting herself ready to take up her new role in Carter's company starting Monday which was just a couple of days away. She was going through all the materials Mr Carter had given her so she could deliver. Weekend, Saturday morning, Olivia opened her eyes to the sound of chirping birds. She realized she had slept with books and papers scattered all over her bed. She pulled herself up and rested her back against the bed headboard. She packed all the books and papers on her bed and placed them on the side table close to her bed. She got down from the bed and went to the bathroom. She picked a simple top and wore it over blue jeans. She wrapped her hair and held it with a pin before stepping out of the room. "Good morning?" she greeted walking into the living room and finding Mr Carter. "Good morning, how was your sleep?" he asked putting his tablet down. "Good," she replied and sat down on the sofa opposite him."Something bad happened?" he said and Oli

    "Good morning sir, I was asked to report today. Please where do I go?" she asked and Ethan stared at her for a while. It was fifteen minutes to 6 a.m. and she was at the offices. Most of the employees would start walking in by 7 a.m. At 7. 30 a.m. everyone is at post. The official time for work to start is 8 a.m. She was in too early in Ethan's opinion. She would have to wait an hour and a half to see anyone. "Come with me," he said. She was very new and for some reason, he didn't want to leave her sitting in the waiting area for an hour and a half. "What is your name again?" Ethan asked as he led the way to his office even though he had not forgotten her name."Olivia Williams, Sir," she replied in her soft voice. Aside from her face that looked different, everything about her was just like his Olivia. Her voice, hair colour, skin colour, her body curves, her mannerism and the way she walks was just like Olivia's. There was that aura of innocence around her. "Are you married?"

    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

    "Do you have any other anything else you would like to present in defence of your client?" the judge "That will be all my lord," Mrs Carter's lawyer said. "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. "It is in the past now. Let's just move o

    "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
