All Chapters of Tease Out The Truth: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

DAVE I was awakened to the sound of people murmuring. They seemed so engrossed with what they're saying that they haven't noticed me. I roamed my eyes around the white room. Judging by the white walls and the smell of alcohol that lingered around the room, I am positive that I am currently inside one of the rooms in the hospital. What exactly am I doing here? "Dave! I am glad you're finally awake," Monica was the first to notice that I have already gained consciousness. "What happened?" I groggily asked. "You were poisoned." I looked at Monica to see if she was joking, but she seemed sincere though. I also noticed that Chris and Reign were not in the room. I was wondering where they were. Reign was supposed to be my fiancé, yet she's not even here by my side. I guessed she was furious of the sudden announcement of

ARYA When I opened the door, an old fashioned lady greeted me. I looked at her from head to toe to determine if it was just my imagination, but it was confirmed. Ms. Dimalanta was in front of me now. "Hell! The enemy is here," Dave blurted so I looked at him and narrowed my eyes. What was he saying? "Ms. Dimalanta! What are you doing here?" Monica asked politely. Good thing Monica was here or else this old lady here would taste a thorough investigation from us. Fortunately, the angel of the group was here because without her, there would definitely be a commotion in Dave's room. I might not hesitate to tie up this old woman and let Zanaya beat her. However, on second thought, that would be too rude. "I came to visit Dave," she replied, not taking her eyes off me as if anticipating that I would attacked her. I glanced at my watch instead. It's

CHRIS Aboard Zanaya's van, we simultaneously observed the traffic in the car window. Actually, we were also with the president of the student council who was Zanaya's cousin-- Nico. We could hear the relentless honking of cars due to heavy traffic and anyone would think that it would never move. "Dave, do you think it's true when Ms. Dimalanta said that the former JDC was gone, and the young ones took over the organization?" Arya suddenly asked. We all looked at Dave who had been busy fiddling with his phone. He also avoided being too close with Zanaya who was next to him now. He looked up and shot us a glare. "Hey! They're just asking," said the one next to him who was obviously irritated as well. He sighed before answering, "I think that's possible. He might have retired or dead." Indeed. Maybe he retired because of his

ZANAYA We were here at a time when crime was rampant. Thieves and corrupt politicians were all over the world who steal from the treasury. Everything started at home until it was shaped in school. Our activities in life whether good or bad begin with ourselves. So I understand people who have chosen to side with the evil. Our destiny was in our own hands and I molded with my hands every decision I made in life whether it was good or bad for others. I watched the receding green dot on my watch. It’s a high-tech gadget designed for us, aspiring detectives. Right now, I am tracking Dave's watch using the GPS of my watch. They were now going to JDC's fort. Unfortunately, I couldn't go with them because I have task to do in the student council office. I was bored watching the green dot so I tried to shake the watch again. I clicked on the notes instead. There we

DAVE "Let go of me, pricks!" I shouted at the two men holding my arm and dragging me into a hallway. My sister Darlene and I were ushered into a basement and tied to chairs. The men left us immediately after that. I couldn't just believe that we got caught, and most of all my mind refused to believe that Reign was one of them because it's just too impossible. She's a detective student and she had helped me with my problems. She couldn't be one of them. I am sure she was just being framed up by those bastards. "Dave, I know you're confused right now, but Reign couldn't do that, could she?" my sister Darlene asked. "No. And I am hoping that she's still with us." Darlene tried to shift on her sit despite being held down by the ropes that bind her. "Dave, I think it's possible that JDC was the reason why mom died," I was shoc
