The news of Mr Anderson started trending on social media platforms, and gradually, the story was turned against Angela. From the belief that Angela could be innocent, and the murderer was still out there on the street, to Angela's accomplices were still out there carrying out Angela's orders. Bryce became furious and became extra cold.Patricia's body was released for burial and Devon quickly took care of it as he didn't want anything to interrupt the upcoming engagement party scheduled for the weekend which Bryce didn't care about. The funeral for Patricia Moore was held on after her body was released Wednesday evening. At the small ceremony which was held at the family home with very few people, Bryce found himself standing next to his mother's casket. The report from Ian which he had read occupied his mind. His anger towards Angela grew and so was his hatred for her. He felt betrayed and regretted ever allowing himself to fall in love with her. He was now doubting the paternity of
At the station, one of the officers went to see Angela in her withholding cell. "How are you holding up in there?" the officer asked, but Angela sat on her bed in silence. Well, tomorrow, a judge decides your fate. And from what I hear in the news, there is no salvation for you," she said, and Angela kept her head lowered, not showing any reactions to the officer's words."The Moore family are having an engagement party tomorrow after burying Mrs Moore today," she said and Angela raised her head to look at her. "Ah! Finally, something got your attention," she said and giggled. "Such is life, people enjoy happy moments, while others cry and some are in your kind of situation, facing a judge," she said and Angela wondered why the officer was there running her mouth."Okay, I will leave you now. Just came to let you know, your days of staying in a withholding cell end tomorrow," she said and left the place."This could only mean Bryce is moving on with Susan," Angela thought feeling hur
Bryce left the police station and went home. When he arrived, Josephine welcomed him, but he ignored her."Sir, your father was here. He asked me to give you this?" Josephine said holding out a brown envelope to Bryce. Bryce paused in his steps and turned to look at Josephine. His gaze moved from her face to her stretched-out hand. He stared at her hand for a while before accepting the brown envelope from her hand. Josephine left his presence immediately. Bryce went for his study. He sat behind his desk and placed the envelope in front of him. He stared at the envelope for a while before picking it up to open it. He brought the content out and it was a threat from his father requesting him to marry Susan after the engagement or risk losing everything. Bryce frowned after reading the content of the letter from his father. There were other documents inside the envelope. The document listed all the properties owned by the Moore family. They were all in Devon Moore's name.Bryce droppe
"What the hell are you talking about?" Bryce asked, turning to face Mrs Anderson, who was standing on her feet."Yes. Ten years ago, your father, my husband and I turned Angela into an orphan," Mrs Anderson repeated."I already know the story of how Angela's parents died. The greedy man whose greed had no end caused his own doomed," Bryce said through gritted teeth. "What do you hope to gain, twisting the truth and accusing my father?" he questioned. "Are you looking for salvation for your murderous adopted daughter?" he threw the words at Mrs Anderson."Paul Adams was greedy and that is why we killed him," Mrs Anderson said."If you killed him, that is your family's business, don't involve my dad in your crime," Bryce said sternly already believing Mrs Anderson was just there to make up a story to defend Angela's criminal act."Give me ten minutes of your time. That is all I ask for?" Mrs Anderson requested."You have already exhausted ten minutes of my time. So get out," Bryce said
"You are an intelligent man. Look into it," Mrs Anderson said. "Thank you for listening to me. I have to go now," she added.Mrs Anderson has heard about Bryce and the way he does his things. She knew he would look into what she had just told him. Hopefully, that would save Angela from going to prison and Susan will be exposed.Bryce stood there and watched Mrs Anderson walk away. He went back inside and retrieved his phone from his pocket. He dialled Ian's number but it went straight to voicemail. He tried again and got the same results. He called Martin."Sir," Martin reported to Bryce.Bryce was standing at the end of the staircase resting his left hand on the stair rail."I need you to look into the murder of the Adams family," Bryce said."Sir, do you have specific information you would like me to get?" Martin asked."I want everything," Bryce said."Yes, sir," Martin replied and Bryce dismissed him."Sir, dinner is ready," Josephine announced."I am not hungry," Bryce said and w
"I am not sleeping again," Bryce said to himself and got out of bed.Bryce exited the bedroom and went to his study. He decided to distract himself with some work. The interview for the movie premiere went great, and they were preparing to shoot another movie. He decided to go through the script. He was not a man who was into stories. He stared at the script, not sure if he was the one not interested in the story or if the story was that bad. Bryce ran his hand through his hair out of frustration. He recalled Angela was the one who worked with Don on the script they used to shoot the amazing movie that has now become the talk of the city.Out of frustration, he tossed the script to the side and worked on other things that were within his area of expertise. The night slowly passed and it was soon morning. There was a knock on the door and Bryce lifted his head from the table. He realized he slept off while working on some documents. The knock came again and he invited the person in."
"Bryce, what is wrong with you?" Devon asked, signalling Bryce about the presence of the media and guests, but Bryce pretended he didn't understand."The proper question should be, what is wrong with you?" Bryce replied."Bryce, my love. Today is our engagement party. Why are you embarrassing me like this?" Susan cried looking pitiful."Oh, am I?" Bryce asked, moving his gaze from Devon to Susan. What gave you that impression that I want to marry you?" he asked, and the people around him gasped."Enough! Everyone out," Devon shouted, and the people around him began to move. "Guards!" he called out, and four men entered the hall. "Ensure everyone leaves this premises," he instructed, and the guards moved to carry out his orders.Bryce stood there in silence staring at his father. Susan stood there crying her eyes out while Eva consoled her. In a couple of minutes, the hall was empty leaving Bryce, Devon, Susan and Eva. Bryce stood just a distance away from Devon, Susan and Eva."Bryce,
"I have heard from both sides, and this is my verdict," the judge said. "With all the evidence presented and witness interviewed. I hereby find Angela Anderson guilty of the charges levelled against her. For taking the life of two people, I hereby sentenced Angela Anderson to life in prison with no possible parole," the judge said and slammed his hammer on the table."No!" Zora and Mrs Anderson screamed. Angela lowered her head as tears streamed down her face."Your honour, she is pregnant," Angela's lawyer raised."That is no excuse. Once the child is born, the family of Angela Anderson can have the baby," the judge said."Mrs Anderson, calm down. We have 8 months to do something about this," James assured."What are you going to do? You presented all the evidence and they still sentenced her. What else are you going to do that you have not done already?" Mrs Anderson cried.Zora stood there watching Angela being taken away. Tears flowed down her face as she kept her gaze fixated o

"Good morning Mr Moore, my name is Detective Darren. I am with the police headquarters," Darren introduced."Detective Darren, I am listening," Bryce said thinking the officer was calling to inform him that his mother's body had been released for burial."Mr Anderson would like to meet you for a very important discussion. It has to do with his daughter, your wife," Darren said and Bryce frowned. Aside from his family and the chief, no one else knew he was Angela's husband. If this detective knows Angela is his wife, does it mean the chief recorded this? Bryce thought, but he calmed himself, knowing an investigation was ongoing so anything linked to Angela could be recorded."What is the discussion about?" Bryce asked."I am afraid this is not a conversation to be done on the phone. He is willing to meet you anywhere convenient for you," Darren said."I don't want to meet him," Bryce said recalling the report Ian shared with him which proved that Angela was guilty of the crime she was
