Chapter 56 EVIDENCE The man looked at the serious expression on laura's face, he wasn't sure anymore that he was going to make it out of here alive, He couldn't just say something against Mr Montero as he was more scared of what the man could do to him, Unlike this woman, not only was he going to kill him but he was going to kill everyone in his family "Won't you talk?" Laura asked, the man looked at her nervously "I can't even if I wanted to" he finally said "And why is that?" She asked suddenly looking interested "Because the person who made me do this will kill my entire family, I have a five year old daughter, I only do this so that I can provide everything she needs, please, just let me go" the man tried to beg but Laura was laughing as if he had said something funny "You know the funny thing about all this is that I don't have a family of my own, I don't even have any children and neither do I plan to have one, so if you think this sweet talk of yours will move me then y
Chapter 57 STARTING ALL OVER AGAIN When Steve got to the room Daisy was kept in, he found her at the far corner of the bed covering her eyes, she was crying and he didnt know if it was because of the wound or if she had heard the screams of that man when Laura was torturing him, "Daisy" he called her name but she didnt respond or look at him, it reminded him of the time she was almost raped in that police cell, she had been looking exactly this way, He took a deep breath, Laura was right, Daisy was the water he needed to put out the fire, she had not saved him once but three times already, first it was at the police station when she got herself arrested, then when he had lost his memory and that man tried to kill him and now she took a bullet for him, If it was any other person, he would have been grateful but since it was Her, he didnt know what to do, He touched her hands and looked at her face, "Don't touch me" Daisy pushed him off and ended up hurting her arm, she began to c
Chapter 58 Alex watched the video and saw Daisy laying on the floor covered in her own blood with Steve beside her "What happened?" He asked Lizzy, "Well apparently, the article says someone tried to shot Steve while he was at a restaurant and Daisy pushed him aside and took a bullet for him" lizzy explained, Alex felt left out, how come no one had told him about this?, "When did this happen?" He asked "Yesterday, I only saw the video today when a friend sent it to me" lizzy replied "No wonder Steve and Daisy are both not home, where could they be?, did the article say if Daisy was taken to the hospital afterwards?" He asked "No, it doesn't say anything more, I called you here because I thought you would know what is happening but it seems you are just as clueless as me" Lizzy throw her phone aside as she laid on the couch "I hope my Steve wasn't kidnapped or something, his line isn't going through, am just so worried" she breathed out in frustration "Am sure he is okay" he sa
Chapter 59 Daisy with the help of the maid had taken a bath and then laid back in bed, she was given some food which she took, when she was about to sleep again, she received a call from Steve "Good morning" he greeted "Morning" she replied "Did you see my note?" He asked "Yes i did" A smile appeared on Daisy's face as she replied "I am caught up at work but I will be home in the evening as soon as I am done, if you need anything, ask mom okay" he said " but mom hasn't come to see me yet" Daisy stated, she had asked the maid and was told Mrs Dante was in her room, Usually, the woman would have already come to see her especially since she was injured, she wondered why she was suddenly acting like this "Am sure she is just busy, ask the maids if you need anything, I gotta go, take care of your self" "Thank you" Daisy said and then the call disconnected, she heard a knock on the door and wondered if it was Mrs Dante "Come in" she said but it was the maid that entered "Your fat
Chapter 60 When Mr Montero got home, he immediately asked Martha to come to his office, the older woman followed nervously, "I am from seeing Daisy" Mr Montero began sitting on his chair "Is she okay?" Martha asked "She was shot but she is going to be okay" Mr Montero replied, Martha only nodded, "She asked to see you, why?" He then asked studying her face, "I don't know" she said with a blank expression "Okay, you should tell me exactly what she wants the moment you come back OK " "Yes sir", Mr Montero quickly dismissed her. It was in the afternoon soon, Daisy sat in her room wondering why Mrs Dante had not yet come to see her, she wanted to call Steve and ask him but thought perhaps she would be bothering him, She let out a deep sign, What was happening to her mother in-law?, she Wondered "Someone is here to see you, she said her name was Martha" a maid peeped into her room "Show her to my room" Daisy said, About a minute later, Martha walked into her bedroom, "Daisy y
Chapter 61 Lawsuit After Martha left, Daisy was left wondering why she didnt tell her the truth, Martha knew exactly who wanted Steve dead, why couldn't she just tell her who it was?, She then began to think about Steve and fell asleep shortly after. "Here" Daisy was woken up by a light tap On her other hand "Steve you are here" she said as she slowly opened her eyes, "Yes, I actually came about two hours ago" Steve told her, Daisy's eyes immediately looked at the wall clock, she had not known she slept for that long, "Its already past 10, did you eat your supper?" She asked, Steve smiled at her " I should be the one taking care of you not the other way round" he laughed, "Am Okay but" Daisy paused choosing her words carefully "What's wrong?" Steve asked her "Mom didnt come to see me today, could she be angry with me, did I do anything wrong?" She asked worriedly, up until this moment, she always thought her relationship with Mrs Dante was good, There was no way she was t
Chapter 62 HE LIED Daisy was bothered out of her mind when suddenly she received a call from jonas, she found it weird that Jonas would call her, he never called her, she began to worry about her father's health, had he fallen sick?, She had a lot of questions as she answered the call, "What happened Jonas?" She immediately asked "Mr Montero has been arrested" Jonas told her "What?" Daisy said "Why, what happened?" She asked "Your husband had him arrested," "I will talk to you later Jonas" Daisy said and immediately hang up on him, She stood up from bed, her hand was hurting badly but she bared with the pain, She made her way to her Mother in law's room her face covered with tears, why would Steve get her father arrested?, wasn't it enough that he had made her suffer? Did he want to finish her completely?, she banged on Mrs Dante's room with her other hand, "Who is it?" She heard the woman's voice say "Its me, open up" she said Mrs Dante opened the door for her a few se
Chapter 63 JEALOUSY Steve knew Daisy had gone to the police station so he followed her there, upon arriving, he was surprised to see his brother carrying her in his arms as he took her to his car, He immediately got a grip of himself and rushed over to Alex, "What do you think you are doing?" He asked "What does it look like am doing, am trying to take care of your wife something that you can't do" Steve felt the strong urge to hit Alex but because he was carrying Daisy, he couldn't, "Give her to me, what happened to her?" He asked "She just passed out" Instead of giving her to him, Alex instead put her in his car and got in, "Damn you Alex, am going to kill you!" Steve yelled as he rushed to his own car and followed him, When they got to the hospital, Daisy was immediately admitted, the Doctor said she had an infection on her wound and he had to clean it up and change her bandages, while Steve waited Outside, Alex did not go either "What are you still doing here, Alex you a

Chapter 108 THE FALL OF MR MONTERO "They dont want money Dad, they said they want to see you turn yourself in or they will kill me" Daisy told him, "Oh Honey" Mr Montero covered his face crying "Please save me Dad, I don't know why anyone would want to frame you like this, am so sorry, I love you Dad" she coughed more blood making Mr Montero touch the screen of his phone "Honey, I will save you, please hang in there" he cried, Steve pressed the button and ended the call "Do you think that will do the trick?" Daisy asked worriedly "I think it will, all we have to do is wait, Alex, get rid of the phone" he said to Alex "Not before I send a text" Alex said, he texted Mr Montero telling him that if he didn't admit to killing everyone he has ever killed the next day before the verdict, then he would receive Daisy's dead body. " I will be on my way, you two be ready for tomorrow, Mom will come and pick you up" Alex said, "Alright goodnight" Steve and her said at the same time. Whe

"I don't believe you are okay, I was so worried about you" Steve admitted when they sat to talk on the bed "I was on my way to see you when the accident occurred, Daisy removed the necklace around her neck and opened it "Please get the laptop" she said, Steve got Alex's laptop and they put the memory card, Daisy played the video and they watched in silence, When the video was done, Steve turned to look at Daisy who was looking away, she seem not to want to watch the video again and he could only understand why "Thats your mother?" He asked and she nodded softly "Am so sorry" he said "Yeah, me too, I feel sorry that I didnt realize this sooner, I hate Jeff Montero so much, the only way we get passed this is if we get him arrested and we are going to do that by all means possible" she said "Martha told you?" He asked "Yes, she told me everything, its funny how I didnt realize what kind of person my father i
Chapter 106 A BROTHER'S KEEPER Alex got home and found his family gathered in his father's study, everyone looked worried especially Steve who looked like he was about to cry any moment now, "What happened?" He asked breaking the silence when he entered the room "No one knows where Daisy is, even Mr Montero is worried sick about her, I need to find her, I can't help thinking if she is fine or not" Steve spoke "Am sure she is fine, we should all go to bed" Alex said, Both his parents and Steve gave him a deadly look "You expect us to sleep in a situation like this?" Mrs Dante asked with disappointment "See, that's what I always say, this boy will never change no matter what, he doesn't care about anything" Mr Dante spoke, Steve wanted badly to side with his parents as he didn't like what Alex said but he couldn't put Alex in the same situation again, he had realized his mistake so he couldn't repeat it again "I think Alex is right, there is no use of staying up being worried, we
Chapter 105 Alex's PLAN "what are you going to do then, keep me here until God knows when, I need to speak to Steve" Daisy said but Alex shook his head "Am sorry Daisy but I can't let you do this, not now, not yet" he said "Then how long will I be here?" She asked "Until Mr Montero pays for everything he did, I want him to be arrested, if I let anyone know that am behind this, I might get caught and I can't risk that, My parents and Steve's life are on the line right now, please be more understanding and let's work together" Alex pleaded, Daisy was thoughtful for a while "Fine but i hope this plan of yours works" she finally answered "Am hoping it does" the two were sitted in silence for a while each deep in thought. "How are you even connected to my father, I mean there is no where he would just want you to kill Steve out of nowhere" Daisy asked "You are right, I did something a while ago, Mr Montero had me covered in exchange for any information I would have against Steve"
Chapter 104 ONE COMMON PROBLEM Mr Montero ended up getting One of Judge mathew's children and ordered jonas to take him away, he was warned not to go to the police or do anything stupid if he wanted to see him alive again, All he had to do was make sure that he did exactly as he wanted, the judge was left with no choice. Just as he left the house of the judge, he received a call from one of the men he left at home "What's wrong?" He asked "Its miss Daisy sir" his heart skipped a bit"What happened to her?" He asked "She is missing, there was an accident on the way, she insisted on going somewhere and one of the men drove her there but when we got there, we only found the guard passed out, Daisy was nowhere to be seen" he explained "How dare you, didn't I tell you to make sure she didnt leave the house, find her or you will pay for this" he said and hang up the call "What happened sir?" Jonas who was driving asked "Daisy is missing, I think Steve had something to do with this"
Chapter 103 "Daisy, look at me" Martha said holding both her cheeks "You have to help your husband, Your father is a bad man, no matter what, he deserves to go to jail" she said "But how can I help Steve, he doesn't even want me" Daisy cried "Those were all lies, Steve brought you to the hospital, he sat next to you after you left the ICU until your father kicked him out, when he was arrested, Steve spent the night waiting for you, I spoke with him, he loves you more than you can imagine Daisy, go help him, he needs you right now" Daisy was surprised to hear that Steve had been there all along "But how, I don't even have any evidence except from what you just told me" she said "Look around your neck, that was your mother's necklace" Daisy looked around her neck to the necklace which she always had ever since she could remember, she took it off "What does this have to do with anything?" She asked confused "Open it up and get the memory card that is inside, I will leave you to it
Chapter 102 A MAN WHO GETS HIS WAY Mr Montero and Jonas went out to see the judge's family. After realizing that the evidence Steve had was solid and he was more likely to get jailed, Mr Montero was rather getting desperate, he came up with a plan to visit the judge and two members of the jury, this was the one way he was sure to win the case, if he had his way of knowing where Simon was, he would have already shot the old man dead. Jonas finally stopped the car in front Of the judge's house "Are you certain he is not yet home?" Mr Montero asked just to be sure "Yes, he has another hearing and is still in court, I cross-checked his schedule" he said "Are you sure?" "Yes Sir". Jonas got out of the car and opened the door for Mr Montero handing him a gun, they both went to the front door with two more of their men following behind. Jonas then rang the doorbell and soon after, a teenage boy opened the door for them, "Yes, how can I help you" the boy asked looking at his phone, h
Chapter 101 MY FATHER THE ENEMY Daisy went inside the house still deep in thought, she began to look for Martha and when she found her, she led her to her room, this was her only chance to confirm what Steve told her since her father was currently not around. "What is it Daisy, how did the case give, where is your father" Maria asked as they walked to her room "Dad might be found guilty, the evidence has is quite solid but I think its not enough, the final videct will be in two days" Daisy said. Finally they got to her room and she locked the door behind "Daisy, what's all this?" Martha asked confused by her odd behavior, Daisy made Marths sit on the couch and stared at her for a few seconds, "What's wrong, why are you looking at me like that?" She asked, in response, Daisy got hold of a picture which stayed at her bedside, it was of her mother holding her when she was only a little baby She stared at the picture, then at Martha and then at the picture again, Suddenly, she fel
