“Answer me”. Greg screamed like a maniac making Elizabeth shake a little. This was the first time ever Greg was going berserk on her.“I swear, I wanted to tell you, Greg. I am so sorry”. Hot tears streamed down her weary eyes. But of course, they were just pretences.“I lost the baby before I jumped off the balcony. I had a miscarriage Greg, I almost lost my life”, she heaved heavily to stabilise herself.“How can you say that Greg, I didn't want you to feel the kind of pain I felt that was why I blamed Megan? And since we wanted Megan to suffer mercilessly, I thought it would be a good idea”.Elizabeth's face all of a sudden was very red, her nose flared up, and her eyes were red rimmed.Greg's eyes widened in realisation, indeed he had gone too far, Elizabeth would never hurt him deliberately.“I am so babe, I…I lost my mind”. He whispered with his eyes blinking fiercely.Elizabeth looked at him, it was working and he believed her. “No Greg, I am a bad person, I hate myself for thi
"Where are the files I asked you to get?" Officer Fin asked the intern assigned to him. A renovation was ongoing in the Police headquarters and so some officers had to change their offices. "Here it is," The intern replied, placing the case box on the table. They had just finished sorting and arranging the new place given to them. "Thank you," Officer Fin replied. He brought out the files, and started going through the files, he separated the files which case had been closed and resolved from others. Until he stumbled on Richard Stone's file. Fin flipped through the contents of the file and it contained barely nothing, the accused on the file was Miss Megan Song and the only relationship tied to the case was Elizabeth who happens to be the victim's Ex. "This is quite unclear" Fin muttered to himself as he traced his pen on Megan's name. He could remember her exact reaction when he was asked to arrest her by officer Gabby. "Is there a problem sir?" The intern Leo asked. "I ju
On getting to Elizabeth's office, which was the first location on Fin's list, luckily for him, Greg was also present. The husband and wife were leaving the office together when Fin spotted and approached them. Immediately Elizabeth sighted him, fear enveloped her as she turned to face Greg who was also confused. "Good day Mr and Mrs Wilson, I am detective Fin" Fin said with a smile on his face. "Em.." Beth started. "Good day Officer, how may we help you?" Greg cuts in. "I need a little bit of your time, the thing is that I have some questions and I need your answers, ten minutes is all I ask for " Fin stated. "Officer, we are quiet, busy as we are about to go for a party now, and we cannot provide you the answers you seek. Please contact our lawyer" Elizabeth replied with a smile on her face as she kept on looking around. "Ms Elizabeth, there is no need for a lawyer yet unless you are proven guilty, this case is really important and it is not going to take time at all" Fin said
"Greg, is anything the matter?" Officer Gabby asked immediately if he answered the call. "You had one job and you couldn't do it properly" Greg barked angrily. How could he let that officer belittle him like that. "I don't understand Greg, what are you talking about?" Gabby asked in return. "Just now Elizabeth and I were being questioned by your officers, I thought I told you to close Richard's case?" Greg narrated. "What! That is impossible" Gabby replied, banging his fist on the table. "So am I lying then? Is that what you are trying to say?" Greg threw back. "If what you are saying is true, I will get to the root of it and give you feedback" Gabby said, ending the call abruptly. "Fucking bastard " Greg cursed out loud. "What did he say?" Elizabeth asked. "He will get back to us," Greg answered in annoyance. Greg drove Elizabeth back to the house as they got ready for a party hosted by one of the elite members of the society. Mrs Wilson Greg mother was invited along with h
Chapter 73.“Greg, don't you believe me?” Elizabeth asked, crying.“Give me something to believe in, Elizabeth, what am I supposed to believe?” Greg yelled in return.“You can't trust those reports Greg, I was pregnant with your child, but I had a miscarriage,” Elizabeth insisted in a shaky voice.“Enough with those lies, at first, you blamed Megan for everything, and then you lied you had a miscarriage, but this is on you Elizabeth and you are going to admit it” Greg retorted.“Greg…” Elizabeth trailed off; she was completely confused and short of words, different thoughts running through her dreadful mind.How did the reports get to Greg's hand?What was she going to say, and how was she going to get herself out of this fucking mess?Greg was fuming with anger and when he saw that Elizabeth was still quiet, he grabbed her by the arm, pushing her to the wall.“Give me an answer, Elizabeth, did you know that I have azoospermia? Did you fake your pregnancy? Was all these between us a l
Chapter 75. “You're still working on that case, aren't you?”. Officer Gabby asked, peering over the stack of files on Officer Fin's desk. The file at the top had ‘Richard’s murder case’ boldly written on it. “I know you asked me to stay away from this case but I can't” “The case has been closed, Fin, knock this out. Give yourself a break”. Officer Fin only adjusted his glasses and kept on with what he was doing. He was determined to carry on with the case even if it went against the orders from his superior. He couldn't understand why Gabby was trying so hard to push this case under the rug when the poor man deserved justice. “Mind you, you're new here and I suppose you don't wanna get on my bad side”. Officer Gabby Threatened. “My gut tells me otherwise”. Officer Fin pored over the file in front of him. “I talked to Greg and Elizabeth, and I am aware you are in possession of the evidence, why won't you submit it for proper investigation?” “That is none of your business, Fin!

Meanwhile at the party.....Greg pulled Elizabeth by the arm, dragging her out of the event hall, Mrs. Wilson was fuming and embarrassed at the same time, but Greg couldn't care less.When they got outside, Elizabeth refused to get in the car, “We are going home Elizabeth, you don't have an option" Greg stated.“First you pulled me all the way here like an animal, and now you are going to force me to go back with you?” Elizabeth threw back.All these while Mrs. Wilson remained silent, she kept quiet, but everything still felt like a shock to her, she was extremely furious. But seeing Elizabeth behaving in a crude way triggered her. “Elizabeth, you have said enough, and you have done enough, do you want to disgrace us further, you want to cause a scene outside here as well”.You know very well I warned you not to lie to me, but you deceived me. What insolence.Elizabeth threw her face away like Mrs. Wilson wasn't talking to her.“Greg, let her be, leave her here and let's go home, " M
