“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! This is the last ti

    In all misery Megan was having a better time. Alex was a cold person. He had his guard up and built a wall around himself. He was always okay in his cocoon never bothering about anything else, especially after his previous experiences.He was used to the solitude but there was something about Megan that caught his attention. It made his walls slowly start cracking.“Thank you for agreeing to this”. Alex said in a gentle voice. “Thank you for accepting to go on this date with me” he said again.“Only because you helped me with the video” A small smile appeared on Megan's lips and Alex realised why his guard was about to be let down. Why did his cold heart start warming up?Maybe it was Megan's bright smile, the way it lit up a room and made his heart skip a beat. Whatever it was, he found himself wanting to be around her more and more, wanting to see her smile and hear her laugh every day. He wanted to be the one to make her laugh every single day.“Regardless, I thought I was going to

    Detective Ben was Megan's secret detective. He glanced at the picture on his screen again to be sure it was the same person. The lady sitting across from him was the same person on the screen, the same lady Elizabeth was talking to a few hours ago.The lady snivelled, cleaning her tears continuously. Ben waited for her to calm down before he started his enquiries. After Megan had tipped him that something was off about Elizabeth's company that was about to be launched, he stationed his men around her. He had already disappointed her with Hailey's investigation and he didn't want that to happen again.One of them sent the picture a few hours ago. He hurried over to meet her after she was led to the café by his underlings. The lady finally stopped crying and picked up the coffee Infront of her, gulping down half of the content."Are you okay now?" "A bit better." She replied, glancing around nervously."Don't fret, it is safe here. So tell me about your argument with Ms Elizabeth" He

    Megan went through the papers Detective Ben left on the table, she was excited to see the defeated look that will be on Elizabeth's face once her deeds are revealed. Hopefully, she will be a bit remorseful for causing someone pain this time. It was late but she couldn't wait to see Alex and informed him about her findings. She decided to call him first, knowing fully well that the man might still be in his office, overworking as usual. Alex picked up on the second ring. "Hi" "Missed me?" "Where are you? I have to see you now" Megan ignored his teasing. "Just rounding up for the day" Megan could hear the clicking of his keyboard from the background. "I'm coming over, wait for me" she disconnected the call before he could stop her. Alex wasn't expecting to see her so soon. They literally just got off the phone about fifteen minutes ago and she was in his office already. Megan walked over, excited to tell him everything she found out dark haired man pulled her onto his lap for a

    Megan smirked and walked towards Layla, she took the papers from her and handed it to the police officer. The stern-faced man went through everything attentively."Mrs Wilson, from these papers it was you are guilty of murder and plagiarism. You have the right to call a legal team..." "Of course, I will! My lawyer is on his way so tell these brutes to get their hands of me or I will press charges""A murderer threatening to press charges? I would like to see" Megan taunted.It was obvious that everything had been revealed but Elizabeth wouldn't submit like that. She was taken away by the policemen and a close down warrant was granted on the newly launched company.The guests were dismissed, much to their disappointment. They anticipated the company only to find out that it was a mere scam.***At the police station, Elizabeth was haughty and rude to everyone, she refused to go into the cell room until her lawyer and her father arrived. She insisted that she didn't know anything about

    Megan plopped down on Alex's chair, tired and a bit angry. She got the news that Elizabeth was allowed to go home and that made her feel like her efforts were a total joke."Stop sulking, their stock is plummeting fast and the company wasn't launched" Alex tried to console, rolling up his sleeves. He leaned against his large desk, facing her."Layla was wronged! She didn't get her justice""You did what you could, Megan. Stop being hard on yourself" Alex pulled her up and sat down, letting her sit on his lap. "You think so?""Yes. Now can I ask you a question?" Alex gently tugged the straying strands of hair framing her face."What? ""It's a warning actually""Warning?""In the next one minute, I'm going to kiss you and then strip you off your clothes and fuck you against this desk" Megan paused, her eyes boring into Alex's as if trying to search for something. A tiny bit of emotion to give out that he was teasing her at that moment, but his eyes were dead serious, no bit of playfu

    Things were definitely not going well with Evelyn, not that it was her who was accused of murder and neither was her family suffering from bankruptcy but. It was something else.She held her phone tightly as she dialled a number, the veins In her hands popping out as anger brewed within her.Hello, the voice from the phone picked up. “How can you throw all of my efforts into the drain like that Huh! You let yourself get caught”. She said her voice was barely audible.“Oh spare me all of that Evelyn, you only provided me with mediocre information”. Elizabeth replied back in rage. Apparently, they were working together to bring Megan down.“I did everything you asked of me, Elizabeth”.“And yet, you couldn't make Mr. Leonard have so much hate for his child that it will break her”. Elizabeth scoffed mockingly.“I let you hack into the song's database, I made Mr. Leonard angry at his own child, I did all sorts of disastrous things to make sure your plan to eliminate Megan succeeded”. But

    “What did you just say?”, Mr Leonard questioned with a fuming gaze.“I said what I said, father, I will be packing out of this house and moving in with Alex”. She said slightly, throwing her face away.“What! No daughter of mine will pack out of the song's mansion to live with someone else”.“Why! So that you can continue to control my life?”. “No, because I don't want you to make the same mistake you committed with Greg”.Megan scoffed, slightly pressing her palms together. “Didn't you want to match Alex and I together? What changed?.“That was before Megan, I know I told you to get along with Alex. But as the day goes by I realise he is even more dangerous than he appears”. Mr. Leonard said with glistening eyes. He didn't want to start to reveal some of the things he had heard.“No father, I made up my mind, just the way you decided to get married a few months after mother's death. Alex and I are bound by something great”.“Common meg, don't bring that up”. He knew that he wronged

    Mr. Leonard’s footsteps echoed softly as he descended the stairs, his eyes were dull as he scanned the room. Alex, Megan, Enzo, and Loyd stood, all eyes on him. Jake clung to his mother's side, his small hand gripping hers tightly."Jake," Leonard said softly, stepping forward with a smile. “You look so much like your mother.” Megan swallowed, her lips pressed tightly together, but she didn’t respond. Her grip on Jake’s hand tightened as Leonard reached out to touch the boy’s face. Jake smiled a little but moved behind his mother to hide. He knew Grandpa hurt mum, so he was also angry.Leonard’s hand dropped slowly, hurt. “Maybe I deserve that,” he murmured, sighing as he pulled back. Enzo cleared his throat as dinner was served and they all moved to the table, sitting in silence as the sound of cutlery clinking on dishes became the only noise.After a long pause, Leonard cleared his throat and looked up at his children. “I know I wasn’t a good father.”Loyd scoffed, muttering under

    Two years later.Things may have seemed like they will never go back to normal for Megan, it was from one trouble to another bigger one. However it says with trouble comes ease.Megan stood in front of the crystal like window as she admired the light blue sky. How she wishes she could just stand here forever. As it reminded her of her better and bad Days.“Mummy, we are going to be late, daddy is waiting”. Little Jake, who was not so little anymore, bugged his mother with his sharp and piercing tone.Yes, Megan and Alex got married last year and they have been happy together. You might wonder what happened to Evelyn and Brittany. Well Evelyn was dead obviously.However Brittany's life never remained the same.

    Life can be unpredictable right. Evelyn was still dazed, it felt as though her legs couldn't move.“No,no that is not true, she sniffed hard. It's not true. He died, I was winning and all of you were my puppets, everything was going according to my grand plan”. She kept emphasising on her words while pointing at Leonard.“Shut up woman, he interjected. I was never dead even if you did everything possible to get me out of the way. I heard the things you said to me while I was unconscious”.Evelyn gasped for the upteenth time. “How is this possible?” However instead of feeling remorse for her evil activities, she felt nothing but anger. It brewed slowly inside of her that it made her burst.“It's all your fucking fault. Did you think after how you betrayed me I will just let you into my life again. I accepted you because of your wealth and what you had to offer to our daughter”.“And I killed your wife to make sure nothing gets in my way again but your stupid witch of a daughter just ha

    Brittany was feeling feverish, a feeling that what she was doing wasn't good. However her urge to have Alex just to herself was even greater.“It's too bad we have to get separated in this way, Meg”. Evelyn whispered to Megan as she finally cocked her gun and pointed it at her.“Please, Megan begged weakly. I will go far away with my son and never return”. Jake was the only person she could think of at that moment. She needed to keep him away from harm.“It's too late darling, Evelyn sucked her lips showing false sympathy. You should have disappeared when you had the chance”. She said with a glint in her eyes.“Don't worry meg, Brittany is going to take care of him and Alex”. Evelyn pointed the gun at Megan, this time with the intent of pulling the trigger. She has said all that needed to be said. While Brittany watched with mixed feelings.Everything seemed to be in slow motion to Megan. The moment felt like an eternity. The air grew thick and heavy, pressing against her chest, maki

    The fear in Megan's heart was sharp, her pulse quickening as Evelyn stood over her, gun in hand, her expression twisted with a mixture of anger and satisfaction.Brittany stood nearby, her posture tense, her face a mask of conflicting emotions. Megan could see the hesitation in her sister’s eyes, a flicker of uncertainty that was an opposite of the cold malice she had shown earlier. But there was no time to dwell on it. Not with Evelyn so close, her finger poised on the trigger.“Stay out of this, Brittany,” Evelyn snapped, her voice hard and cold. “You’re just as stupid as Sonia was, and that’s why she’s dead.”Evelyn’s words cut through the air like a knife, and Megan’s heart lurched. She looked at the woman closely, wondering if she'd just misheard. Did she just admit to knowing about her mother's death? “What do you know about my mother's death? Megan asked with a shaky voice. She watched as Evelyn struggled to maintain her composure, her hand shaking slightly as she pressed the

    consciousness crept back into her mind. The pounding in her head was unbearable, a dull ache that intensified when she tried to open her eyes. “Damn," she hissed as the migraine hit her in full force. She felt like her head was splitting in half and she couldn't even help it. “Where am I?" She muttered as she turned. She blinked several times, trying to adjust to the dim light filtering through the room. It was then that the cold, hard reality hit her—she was tied tightly to a chair, her wrists and ankles bound with rough rope that dug into her skin.Panic surged through her, and she instinctively began to struggle against her restraints. The chair creaked under the force of her movements, but the ropes held firm. “Who is here! Help me!" She called out, wiggling. Panicked, she glanced around her, the memories of what had just happened assailed her. Someone had grabbed her from behind and she'd passed out with the pungent smell forced in her face. She'd been drugged and now she was

    Megan shivered, she had a bad feeling that her sister, Brittany had done something crazy. Why else was she calling just when she couldn't find her son and then she was laughing like a psychopath. “Brittany?" She called out over the phone, standing in the living room and shivering in her shoes. “I guess you're home by now, because I know that you wouldn't have answered my call otherwise," she said with a casual tone. “Why are you calling?" Megan asked carefully. She had a bad feeling in her guts that Brittany's call wasn't just a coincidence. “You know why I'm calling, Megan, don't play dumb with me," Brittany replied with a stiff tone. Megan sighed, taking deep breaths to steady herself. She was already trembling and she couldn't find her voice. "Brittany, what is this about?” She asked, already losing her patience. The anxiety was killing her and clearly Brittany was trying to mess with her head. How on earth did she know that she'd just gotten home? And what did that have to do

    Brittany stood in the doorway, a forced smile plastered on her face as she gazed at her nephew, Jake. She had a sly smile on her face. How lucky she was, as if everything in nature was just sending her a sign. Her mother's plan would work out smoothly. “Hey little boy," she said with a sugary tone. But Jake just looked up from his painting and gazed at her blankly without saying a word, his eyes almost bored. “Come on, won't you say hello to your aunty?" Brittany tried again with an even more sweet voice but inwardly she was rolling her eyes. “No," Jake gave a single monotonous reply and didn't bother explaining himself, he just picked up his crayons and continued stroking each color across his white paper. Brittany sneered as he turned his face away, he was indeed a miniature version of his mother, Megan, with the same piercing blue eyes and mischievous grin. It was almost like he was staring at Megan's younger self right there on the couch. "Oh, Jake, I'm sure you don't really

    Brittany paced back and forth in the fancy little cafe. She couldn't help the anxiety and anger that she felt. The thought of them made her nauseous. “She is in there with him as we speak!" She said and drummed her fingers on the table again. Evelyn had a very calm look on her face. But then that was typical. She wasn't easily ruffled, she always had a plan for everything and that was exactly why her daughter trusted her to find a solution. “Calm down, Brittany, anger never solved anything, what you need to do is plan," she advised. Brittany was exasperated, she hissed, “Calm? How can I possibly be calm right now?" She asked, spreading her arms. “She is with my husband and he won't even allow me see him, he told me to stay out of his way." Smiling, Evelyn waved it all off like it didn't matter. “Come on, Alex is just licking his wounds. You should allow him to do that.” She replied. "I don't know how long that will last for and frankly I don't wish to find out. All I know is that
