    “Well, I think I made a mistake by saying he was like my father because my father is better than him in some aspects, he is worse than a monster. Charlotte wasn’t born in the hospital but in the house because Diane is an illegal immigrant and hence she didn’t have her papers and let’s not forget that he hid her throughout her pregnancy so when she had to give birth, it was done in the house with his assistance. Charlotte is not in the system so if he kills and bury her right now, the world won’t know a thing about it nor will they ask questions. He never intended on marrying Diane until the cries of the baby got the attention of the neighbors and murmurs began going around in the community and raising alarm. He had no choice but to get married to her and make her a legalized citizen. So now they both know what he’s capable of and since Charlotte doesn’t technically exist, he can get away with killing her and leaving the only witness to be Diane who he also plans to kill and put an end

    Alexander sat quietly in the couch and leaned back a bit as he observed both Richard and Romeo, especially their body language and facial expression. He turned quietly to glance at Philip who felt the hot gaze at the side of his face and turned to him. The two stared at each other for sometime before the light bulb light up in Alexander’s mind and recognition became evident to him.

I don’t know what I’ve ever done to you since I came inside but I don’t do married women and I most certainly don’t do any woman. They are not exactly my mmm-preference, my name might be Romeo but I’m not like that Romeo in literature.

This is too draining and suffocating because for the first time, I’m now thorn between doing what is right, what is wrong and what feels right and sincerely speaking, I can’t decide which path I want to take.” Alexander turned around to face Alice then at the guys before he spoke on the behalf of all of them present in the room.“You have our word, whatever you say here, stays here with us and not a soul away from this group will hear the wind of it.
