Jessica looked at the clock. It read 10:45 p.m. This was the umpteenth time that her husband, Liam, has stayed out late. She finally heard the sound of his car as it drove up the driveway into the garage.“Hello dear, you are welcome back,” she said to Liam when he walked into the living room. He reeked of alcohol. Once again, he had gone drinking.“Hello. Why are you still awake by this time? I’ve told you not to wait up on me,” he said in reply while slumping down into the sofa. Jessica sighed in desperation, “How can I go to bed when my husband hasn’t returned from work? How do you expect me to sleep when I don’t know where you are, and you don’t pick up my calls either?”“Well, I’ve told you not to worry about me, haven’t I? Just pretend that I don’t exist.Jessica began to sob, “Why are you doing this, Liam? What have I done to deserve this?”“What have you done to deserve this? Are you seriously expecting a reply to that? How can you be so dumb?”Jessica continued to cry even h

Present Day“Hello, miss. I’m here to see a patient, Mr Arnault,” Jessica said to the nurse at the reception desk. “Are you a relative?” “No. I’m a friend. Sorry, an acquaintance,” Jessica replied. “Alright. Please wait in the lounge. I’ll have to let him know first.”She walked off while Jessica went to sit at the waiting area. She was at the private, executive suite of the hospital. She wasn’t surprised though. Mr. Arnault was a billionaire, afterall. “Please come with me, miss,” the nurse said when she returned after some time.She followed her into a room. Two cops stood at the entrance.“Hello Jessica, nice of you to come visit,” Arnault said when she entered. “I hope you’re doing ok, sir.”“I’m feeling much better now. I lost a lot of blood and an emergency operation had to be done when I was rushed in. But, the doctors say I’ll be discharged in a few days. I was lucky to have survived all thanks to your heroic acts.”“Oh, I’m sure anyone else would have done the same thing

Four Years Ago.Jessica’s mom, Olivia, stood behind her in the full length mirror, her face glowing with joy and pride for her daughter. Today was her wedding day.“I’m so happy for you, dear.” Olivia said to her. “You look so beautiful that I’m sure your groom may not be able to recognize you.”“Thank you so much, mom,” Jessica said, “and I’m really grateful for all your help. I wouldn’t have been able to handle all the stress of preparing for this wedding, alone. I’m so glad you’re here with me.”“Come on, you’re my daughter. This is the least I could do for you.”“Did dad call you?” Jessica asked.“No, he didn’t. I told you that man couldn’t be trusted. He has never kept his word and I don’t think he is going to keep it now.”“I thought that perhaps, just this once, he could fulfill his promise of coming to his own daughter’s wedding,” Jessica said quietly.“Come on dear,” Olivia said, “this is supposed to be the happiest day of your life. Don’t let that spoil your perfect day. You

Jessica walked down the lonely street towards home. She suddenly heard voices coming up a dark alleyway. She cautiously drew closer and peered from behind a wall.“Give us the pendrive,” a man in a mask said. “Don’t waste our time! We know you have it on you.” He struck a man kneeling before him across the face with the butt of a gun. The man fell on the floor writhing in pain.“You have 60 seconds to give it to us or yet still, tell us where you’ve hidden it, or we are going to kill you and go after everyone associated with you.”“I don’t know what you are talking about,” the man on the floor said. “I don’t know of any pendrive. Please believe me.”“The clock is ticking, Mr. Arnault. Tick tock. Tick tock. You have about 45 seconds more,” another man in a mask, possibly an accomplice of the first said. His posture and deep baritone voice seemed to suggest that he was the leader.“Please, you have the wrong guy. Is it money you want? I have money, plenty of it,” he continued to plead
