"I think this is all for today!"Thomas said as he packed up the rest of the papers."It is!"Celine replied as she helped him pack up the papers."I will be here tomorrow too, I hope nothing will keep you delayed as you were today"He said "You don't have to bring it tomorrow, you can just give it to one of the employees to Bring it to me"Celine said as she stared at him "What! You dont want me to come tomorrow?"Thomas asked "I just think that it's inconvenient for you to be bringing it back home for me, you can just get one of the.......""It's not a bother for me, at least that way I can get to see your face"Thomas said softly and Stacey who had been about to take away their cup of coffee stopped what she was doing to stare at Celine.Celine looked away from Stacey and stared at Thomas.There were some part of business she had to look into and so instead of going to the company, Thomas had decided to bring it over to the Clifford mansion.He has been doing that for a week now and sh
Celine woke up to find her self in a room, she turned her head a bit to see the beeping monitor and also to see that a drip has been placed in her hand.Was she in a hospital, she thought as she moved her head a bit to see the clothing on her body.It was an hospital attire, so she is definitely in a hospital, she thought.What had happened, she thought as she sat up only to see Nick sitting on the chair not so far from her.It's been a week, a week since she had last seen him, he hadn't even come to see her at all but he showed up when some thing was wrong with her.she thought sadly.As if he sensed her watching him, he opened her eyes and saw her starring at him.Immediately he stood up and went towards her, looking worried."Are you okay?"He asked "Am fine! Why am I here?"She asked "You don't remember ?"He asked softly "If I did remember,I won't be asking you?"She said "Some one attacked you three days ago and you have been in a coma since then, you just woke up today"he said a
Nick walked into the station to see Peter waiting for him."So? Who is this person?"Nick asked "Minister of health, George Drew"Peter said "So that man is also amongst the gambling den members"Nick said "Yes, the assassin also confessed that George has been the one visiting Zack before he died, Jenny also confirmed seeing the man coming to see Zack"Peter said "George had been the one black mailing Zack, asking him to do all sort of things before Zack died" Nick added and Peter nodded "Then we will need to pay George a visit" Nick said "We have a problem though! We don't have a prove that George did It and besides the assassin he sent told us that George had threatned him saying that if he was caught, he wouldn't help him out of it but instead he will kill him "Peter said "He will need to be watched all the time and even though we don't have proof, we can surely gather one, I will seek George out this after noon and see what I can get out of him "Nick replied "Stay at the st
"Stephanie my love, do not believe him,he is lying!"Bruce said as he began to walk towards Stephanie.He took her hand but she shrugged him off m, slapping his face at the same time."You Monster! How could you do that, how could you hurt my child!"Stephanie yelled at him "I didn't do it my love, I swear to you that I didn't do it!"He said as he tried to touch Stephanie again but she pulled away from him.She moved back feeling a bit dizzy and quickly Nick went to her,holding her so she wouldn't fall."My love are you okay!"Bruce said as he moved towards her but she shrank away from him."Please Nick, get me away from here!"She said and quickly Nick helped her into his car while Bruce stood by the door calling her."Right now, I don't have any evidence against you but be rest assured, I will get one and surely make you pay, you and every one else involved in the gambling den "Nick said and went into his car driving off too."Are you okay Mrs"He asked as he drove watching Celine mom
"Stop there!"Nick kept on yelling as he ran after the man who was dressed up as a doctor.Nick caught up with him when he bumped into a nurse and a patient.Nick caught him and pulled off the hospital mask on his face."Who sent you! Who the hell sent you!"He yelled at the man who gave him a crooked smile."Call the police, some one call ......."Nick couldn't finish his word because he was pushed away.While the man ran off in a hurry, Nick stood up too, running after the man.He ran through a hall, which was dark and has no one in it.Nick stood still looking for him in the little dark Ness that enveloped him.He ran further in and there was still no sign of the bastard.He was about leaving when he noticed some thing on him.There were three red spot of light pointed right at his chest through the large glass window.Nick stood starring at the window and he knew that if he moved,the gun would be shot and there was no way he could do it, he will be hurt too.He stood still and jus
"What you are saying right now is that Thomas was the one who sent you and that you think he is up to some thing with George?"Nick asked Bruce who nodded his head in return"I find that hard to believe, you are just trying to rid your self off the issue"Peter said "I swear on life it self, you need to believe me Nick, am not amongst the gambling den members and I will never want Celine dead !"Bruce said as he moved towards Nick."You don't have to listen to this Nick, he is.....""Let's give him a benefit of doubt, I will meet Thomas my self and once i get to talk to him, I will know which one of them is lying"Nick said."You go and talk to him and you will see that am not lying, I will help you in any way to get those bastards who are working at the gambling den"Bruce said as Nick began to walk off "That is if you aren't one of them"Nick said and walked off.Nick got to the Clifford office and got out of his car.He stood starring at the building, starring at the upper floor.Thoma
"I trust Nick,he wouldn't do what you ask of him even if you are his little sister!"Celine said and that made Alicia smile."Seems like you don't know him then, Nick will do what ever I ask of him, after all he loves me......""Like his little sister, Nick doesn't love you the way you are expecting him to, he only loves you like are his sister!"Celine said to Alicia"Shut up!

"You are taking long in answering me Alicia, should i just take that as a yes"Nick asked jolting Alicia back to the present moment "Of course not? I don't like you the way you are insinuating, I like you or better yet, I love you like my brother, if I were asked to choose between you and Thomas then I would pick you, you have been the best brother any girl could ever have,so stop misinterpreting my love for you"Alicia lied with a smile even fixed on her face."Am sorry I doubted you, I just wanted to confirm what Celine told me and now that have gotten an answer I certainly can't doubt you right?"He said "Of course you can't and besides you told me you had some thing to ask me"She said "Yes!
