“WILL gran-gran be alright, mommy?”Monique suddenly asks, worried and unlike her usual self where she always claims that Adriella is someone that no one could ever mess with. “Of course, baby.”Cath assures the little girl, as she drove the twins to the hospital to check their injuries and any further complications that happened. And just to make sure that everything is alright. “We are worried about gran-gran.”The first that Cath heard it from the twins, especially from Monique that isn’t easily scared, until now. “What do you mean Monique?”She asks confused, yet didn’t show it to the twins. “I do not think she can handle Cedric’s dad.”CEDRIC?The name that Cath confirms immediately is the one who spearheads the bullying toward the twins. “Is he the one who bullied you both?”With a quick nod from the twins, Cath is patching the information and what Monique is trying to say to her. “Cedric is the leader of the four boys that hurts Cole.” The little girl started to explain
“CHARLES GIDEON. GOVERNOR GIDEON.”With a sinister smile drawn on her face, Cath couldn’t help but chuckle at the end. For the name that was not just familiar, but a shady one is once more knocking on her door. “So, you decided to run for politics and from all places in this state.”Her mind is currently on the path that’s kicking her journalistic nature. For she already knew more than a thing and two about the person that will be her target. Not an easy one to cross, but she already put him down then and this time it is not that difficult to do so for a second time. “Now I understand your worry for your gran-gran Monique.” She assures the twins and especially Monique with his smiles and words. “Do not worry, gran-gran is alright, mommy will come for her aide.”“Really mommy?”The twins ask her in unison and excitement. She immediately nods in response and assurance that put huge smiles on the twin's faces and cheered her with. “For now, I want you both to be good and especially be
“DADDY!”The twins call in excitement and run toward Sam who just arrived and panting. He just went into a sprint and was in a hurry to arrive at the hospital. “Speaking of the devil.”Doctor Lee whispers with a sinister smile drawn to her face and winks at Cath. A bit puzzled, she just let everything flow and see what will about to happen. “Monique, Cole, are you alright?”Sam immediately asks his twins and looking at their bruises and wounds worries him more. Worse he is now disappointed and angry by what happened. “Did those boys get their punishment?” He quickly follows with another one and immediately looks at Cath with a mixed expression of anger, worry, and disappointment. “Cath, what happened, did you—”“Hold your horses for a bit daddy.”Monique quickly stops him with her little hands in front of him in a commanding way, rather than a request. “First of all, both I and Cole are alright. We have a few bruises and Cole with some wounds and two, but Doctor Lee is done examin
“FOOLS!”Governor Charles Gideon screams, slamming the table with both of his hands and throwing the stack of documents from his table. “I apologize Sir.”The bodyguard of his son Cedric apologizes. “I failed to watch over the young master and prevented such a thing from happening.”He poorly explains while holding his breath from time to time knowing the punishment that is like hell that he is about to have. “Stupid! I do not want your apology, go and make yourself useful. Do your freaking job!”Charles commanded in his deep and angry voice. Shouting at his employee and pointing his finger to the door that his son’s bodyguard immediately heeded. “You are all useless!”He continues to scream, throwing everything he sees in front of him. Shows his dominance, anger, and disappointment that his close employees and those who are afraid to cross him know him. “You know that nothing will be solved with that kind of attitude.”A sexy blonde woman enters his office. Locking the door with
“WELCOME BACK EVERYONE.”“Nanny Ester, everyone!”The twins cheer in delight after seeing the old woman nanny Ester greeting them in front of the mansion with all of the housemaids in two. “You are all here and already?” Monique asks in surprise and gladness before the two of them Cole looks back at their gran-gran expecting an explanation and two. Yet, rather a confirmation that they wanted to hear from her. “Mom?”Sam asks Adriella in surprise. Thinking of what just his mother ate and she changes her mind about letting Cath clean the entire mansion as her test and what she initially planned. “Does this mean, mommy, pass your test gran-gran?”The little girl excitedly asks with a bit of a squeal that Adriella is no surprise to here from her witty granddaughter. “What do you think?”She teases a bit. Especially that all along she knew that her grandchildren and her daughter Lindsey is helping Cath all this time by giving her the advice that she needed to win her approval. “Is th
‘IS SHE CHEATING ON ME?’The only thing that’s currently running inside Sam’s mind for almost an hour now since she heard Cath talking secretively on her phone. “That’s impossible.”He rationalizes. Calming his nerves weighing the facts and the possibility of things. “She wouldn’t do it. I am just overthinking a bit. I shouldn’t jump on the gun. Right?”Worse than convincing and trying to make things make sense for him. Sam is turning his mind into disarray and more than how chaotic it is right now. “Cath is not like what you are thinking, you know her.”He whispers to himself and might as well turn into a crazy one. He’s walking back and forth in the same spot and in a straight line that could straight up turn anyone dizzy just by looking at him. “Damn! This is driving me nuts!”Now having a headache and two and have been in the dilemma for an hour. Sam completely forgot his work and the pile of documents that he needed to go through for the day. “I should have spied on her.” He
“ONE thing that you need to know young lady. This job is unlike any other, if you are thinking that this is like a walk in the park then you are dead wrong.”The warning that Cath receives from the best detective in the entire police department of division seven. A kind of insult that she isn’t fun of hearing that is underestimating her. “First of all, I am not a young lady. Never wore any fancy dress to present myself like those dolly rich girls out there.”Cath emphasizes, contradicting the detective’s words with the stance of shutting everyone who is looking down on her. “Second, I didn’t choose my profession today to be scared of a mere gunshot.”She added, grabbing the disassembled gun in front of her and swiftly assembling it like a pro in minutes. “And third, do not dare look at me as a lady reporter and underestimate my skills.”Immediately pulled the trigger and fired directly on the dummy target a few feet from their location in the practice shooting field of division sev
“LOVE?”Jun smirks, taking the conversation to be the funniest and silliest thing he ever heard in his entire life. Even though he is always asking about the matter. “I do not have the time for that.”He briefly explains and drops the case like it was nothing and not even worth talking about for a second. “You do not have the time?” Nadia asks in a tone that is both intriguing and teasing him. Knowing that he knew more than anyone else why he is acting all reserved about the topic. “Why?” Nadia added. “Because you are this country’s best detective and had many things at hand to even think about it for a second.”She hides the term with its pronoun knowing how sensitive Jun is regarding the topic. Yet, she is a journalist, and a journalist had the habit of pocking into someone’s business especially if it is interesting enough to be sold. “What are you pointing out about Nadia?”Jun asks in a serious and a bit of a dismayed tone. But Nadia is not having any of it, and for being use
