“Is everything okay?” Jessica asked Richard. He was staring at his phone during breakfast and had barely touched his food.

“That is odd. Do you think maybe he left the phone in his car? It’s still early in the morning and he may not have noticed,” Jessica said. Richard shook his head in disagreement.

    Back at the Raymond residence, there was confusion and excitement amongst the staff. Only one driver was aware of when Ella had returned, and he explained how he had simply picked her up from an apartment complex. He had been with the Raymond family for years and he knew how to be discreet while releasing just enough information to generate some counter intelligence. The man could clearly recall the animated conversation which he had subsequently narrated to Blake.“Are you sure you picked her up from an apartment? I was there when the police dragged her out of the house. Blake must have picked her up from a police station,” Dora said. She had come downstairs with rage and explained to the other staff members how Blake’s criminal ex-wife had sneaked back into the house.“We picked her up at a middle class estate. I don&

    The sun was beginning to set in the calm and quiet suburb with about 50 houses. Ella stepped out of her taxi to gaze at the lovely sunset on the horizon. She smiled to herself as she realised that she would enjoy this view for years to come. She looked at her beautiful two storey house with pride and walked towards the gate. She was surprised to see curtains already set up on the windows in the upper rooms. She had planned to furnish everything herself but she didn’t mind if Kevin had set things up for her. Besides, she didn’t mind saving some money. Just as she was about to ring the doorbell, a car hooted from behind her. She turned around and was surprised when she noticed that the car was two feet away from her. It seemed to be ready to enter her property. The driver looked at her with suspicion and she walked to his window. He rolled it down and looked her up and down. A beautiful woman who was wearing too much makeup looked at Ella harshly.“Can I help you?” the man asked.“I was

    Ella woke up feeling confused in her new home with Blake. She stirred out of sleep and looked around the elegant bedroom tastefully furnished with brown and white hues. She sat up wondering how she had ended up in bed while all she could remember was drinking milk and eating cookies at the sofa.Ella took a cold shower and dressed as she wondered If Eddie and Bryer were ok. She looked around and could not see any of the bloody clothes from the day before. Ella used the brand new toiletries that had been laid out and she finished getting ready.She was feeling a little hungry and wondered what time it was. There was no clock in the bedroom and she still had no idea where her phone was. Her phone had been in her handbag which had remained in Eddie’s car. Tracy felt tears fill her eyes when she remembered how Eddie had been shot. She had never known that Blake could be so violent and cruel. The mem
