George took out his phone and looked up for any potential businessman that goes by the name. “There is no name of that such here.” Arielle drew closer and peered into his phone. “Are you sure he told you his real name?” “Why does he have to lie, he just helped me, so there is no reason for him to lie about his name.”“That's a good course, so why is his name not here?” “Let me a look.” He passed the phone to her and after going through the phone, she turned and stared at George. He shrugged his shoulder. “Maybe he has another name I don't know of, maybe a business name.” “Why are you coming up with as many excuses for him?”“I'm not. Ok, let me call him.” She searched her phone for his number but realized that it wasn't there anymore. “I think I lost his contact.” George groaned. “I think we have had enough for the night, is time to get some sleep.” She collected the phone from him. “You mean couldn't look him up?” Michael blurted. George narrated the event of last night to hi

“Nana said you have something important to tell me.”“Uhhhm, it's nothing don't mind her.” “But she sounded serious.” “Just get over it, if have something to say to you, I will say it.” “Ok, I thought as much, why will you need Nana’s help to talk to me.” Brielle let out a chuckle. They discussed other things as they drove home. George watched Brielle walk into their office with a solemn face. She walked and sat on the couch in the office. She left the office two hours ago to talk to Rafaelle, but with her expression, one can tell the outcome of it.“I think I have something to cheer you up.” “What's that?”“The Detective has reported back.” She popped up on her seat, facing him.“What did he say?”“Lucy is behind it.” “I knew it.” She leaped, walking towards her desk. George was mute he didn't know what to say. He never thought that she would do such a thing. It was at this moment that things started adding. “So she was the cause of the failed attempt to rescue you. She tells

The dining became silent once more as they dug into their food. Brielle decided to overlook what she noticed reasoning that maybe her wit was playing games on her, and she was just imagining things.They moved to the living room to have a chat after dinner, the conversation was mainly George and Frederick discussing business. “So you guys couldn't walk out with me?” Lucy bawled at her children as they entered her room. “Mom please it was your choice to leave, don't pull into your problem with Dad.” Clifford chipped. “And you?” She turned to Sapphire who was on her phone. “Mom not again, you know how he is when it comes to Brielle, please don't act all surprised.” “Your guys sat there and watched a visitor shut me up in my own house.”“You don’t expect me to talk back at him.” Sapphire defended herself. Clifford gaped at his mother and sister.“I'm off, see you guys later.” Clifford declared, leaving the room.“Why is your brother so weak?”“You don't expect him to talk back at Ge

Lucy dreaded the upcoming meal, she had never hated having lunch the way she despised this one. Despite the room being full of air conditioner, Lucy has been feeling superheated, unnerved, everything chose to be wrong with her at that moment she didn't know who to lament to, after her last encounter with Brielle, she had been ramming her brain about how to evade her upcoming doom, she was tempted to call Clinton but she decided against knowing it will give him the upper hand if he finds the deep mess they are in. When she couldn't bear it anymore she let out a big outcry. Sapphire ran into her mother’s room, she screamed when she saw the state of her mother.“Mom!” She shook her lifeless body. “Mom, please don't do this.” Clifford busted into the room. He froze when he saw his mother on the floor in a pool of blood, too shocked to move, but he managed to take a little step forward. “Let's take her to the hospital.” The Butler spoke when he came inside the room. “What happened?” Bri

“I think I fell for her pity story, which I'm not even sure it's true.” She avoided looking at him and threw her gaze out of the window. “I made myself vulnerable for her, she saw through my facade and took the opportunity, I couldn't stand her tears and her plea, so many emotions were swirling inside of me that I didn't know what to do.” She was so lost in her world, that she didn't notice that they had been driving around, for one hour now. He knew she needed the air. He went back to his hotel when he saw that she was asleep, he saw dried streaks of tears on her face, as he carried her up to his room. She woke up in the morning with a hand draped over her, she couldn't remember entering this room, and she was in his shirt. But she would remember the feel of this arm anytime, any day. She twisted and snuggled closer to him, burying her face in his chest. He stirred and drew her closer to his body by her waist. “Good morning.” He mumbled as he pecked her forehead. “Did I wake you
