GWEN'S POV “An arrest warrant? Why?” I asked immediately."Mr Ricky Steve has been identified as an accomplice in the robbery that occurred at Savvys' Stores two months ago," one of the officers told me, handing me a photograph."The investigation has been ongoing for a while now. Yesterday, we came across CCTV footage that clearly captured Ricky's face."I stared at the photograph in disbelief, recognizing Ricky's face but refusing to accept it was him.Two months ago? That was when Ethan had his surgery. My eyes widened to this realization."Officer, when was this footage captured?" I asked in hopes that it was not that same night.“On the 7th of September at exactly 7:28 PM” The other officer replied to me.My heart broke up into little fragments. That was the evening Ethan had his surgery. That was the same evening that Ricky came to the hospital with the substantial sum of money needed to cover Ethan's expenses and with an injury.I remember asking him several times how he got

ANDREW’S POVI opened my eyes slowly and groaned in pain.I was unable to move, and I felt a respirator covering my face. My body seemed to have a mind of its own, and I could not control it after numerous failed attempts.It was obvious to me that I was laying in a hospital bed but why and how I got here was what I couldn't remember.My last memory was leaving my cabin for some fresh air, and what happened after that was blurry, I could not recall.“Babe, you are awake” I heard Elena's voice and then I felt her hands on mine. Her hand felt incredibly warm.“Do you see? I am here with you now. I didn't leave you in the hospital alone like when you were shot in Turks and Caicos”“Aunt Katherine isn't here to send me away. I am here for you, I care about you” What is she rambling about? Was this really the perfect time for her to be saying all this? For heaven's sake, I just opened my eyes.I attempted to speak, but my mouth did not move. I tried moving my hands to get the respirator

Andrew's POV"Let us go, officers," I said as I led the way into my father's house.I was certain of what I saw and knew Rickard had pushed me into the water, but what I am most concerned about now is convincing my father that his son is responsible.Whatever happens today, Rickard will go behind bars.I was the first to enter the house, and the police officers followed. My father was seated on a couch, his legs crossed, his gaze fixed on a newspaper.He stood up as soon as he saw me and had a shocked expression on his face.“Andrew, Why are you here so early, and why are you accompanied by cops?"I did not respond to him; instead, I moved closer to the staircase and began to yell.“Rickard, you bastard, come down stairs”Rachel, who appeared to be busy in the kitchen, was came out when she heard my voice. She dashed out of the kitchen and looked at me puzzled.“Andrew, what's going on?” My father drew me by the hand and directed my gaze toward him.I totally ignored him."Officers, h

Elena’s POVThe doctor arrived, and I led him to Andrew's bedroom, where he lay unconscious.My phone started ringing, and I excused myself from the room, leaving Andrew to be examined by the doctor.“Why are you calling me Rickard? I specifically told you to message me whenever you need something” I said in a very low tone. “Can we meet?”“What is wrong with you? Andrew is not feeling well; I can't just abandon him," I said, irritated.“That's the problem Elena, Andrew knew I pushed him off the ship, he remembered.”“What?” I yelled on the phone. "You bastard, you told me you had nothing to do with it!"“That is not what you should be worried about right now Elena, Andrew is onto me. Get me out of this or…” He laughed maniacally. "I don’t need to tell you what I can do.""You son of a bitch!" I cursed. "Are you threatening me?""I know you will handle the situation perfectly. Catch you later, Elena," he laughed before hanging up the phone.I smashed my phone against the wall but th

Gwen's POV “You look gorgeous Gwen” Granny complimented me. She was right; I had not felt this beautiful in a long time. I was dressed in a sleek metallic gold bodycon dress, it's length was above my knee and had intricate lace sleeves delicately embroidered with golden thread. The dress hugged my curves accentuating every contour while the lace sleeves added a touch of elegance and allure. I wore a black high heel that matched my Chanel purse, the last gift Andrew gave me while we were still married. I would not have used the purse, but I did not have another one that matched my outfit that evening. My hair was styled into curtain bangs which complimented my carefully applied makeup. “Is this not a little bit too much Granny?” I said, feeling a little bit uneasy. “No it's not. You look perfect Gwen” Her reassurance made me smile. “Alright Granny, the nanny is already on her way here” “You didn't have to Gwen, I can handle them” She said smiling. “Hell no,

Gwen's POV“What are you doing here?” I asked, taking a step back.Gary looked at me with a mischievous smile. He started getting closer and closer to me."Stay back!" I yelled, my body already shaking with fear."There is no need to panic, hunny; all I want is for us to have fun," he said, laughing hysterically."I am not interested," I said, attempting to push him away but he was too strong.He pushed me against the wall and used both of his hands to lock me in. The smell of alcohol permeated every part of his body. He was visibly not in his right mind.“Help, anyone” I began to yell.“No one will hear you hunny” he said with a smirk on his face.I kicked him in the balls, causing him to release me from his grip. I quickly pushed him aside, but just as I was about to open the door, I felt a sharp pain on my head."Argggh!" I exclaimed, clutching my head tightly. The pain was excruciating. I was having difficulty maintaining my balance, and my vision was becoming fuzzy.Gary let out

Gwen’s POV"Is she the reason you have not been answering my calls?" The woman asked, trying to maintain a calm tone.“What are you doing here?” Mr Miller asked angrily.“I just want to talk to you babe. Who is she?” She asked, looking in my direction."It is none of your business, Martha."He grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the house. "We were about to leave, excuse us," he said in rage.“James, I am sorry. Please listen to me” She said, holding him by the hand which made him stop.I could feel him tightening his hold on my hand. He was unmistakably angry."Ouch, you are hurting me," I cried, pulling my hand away from his.“So she is the reason you don't want to listen to me?" She queried, casting me an evil glare.I really did not want to be involved in whatever was going on. I was still drowsy, and the last thing I wanted was drama, especially after recalling the incident with Ricky's ex-lover.Mr Miller ignored her and began walking towards his car which was parked in front

Gwen's POVThis man's nerve to show up at the office with police officers.Mr Miller came to the scene some seconds after me.He appeared to be very calm, with his hands tucked inside his suit. That posture made him look intimidating.“What are you doing here, Gary?” he asked.“Mr Miller?” One of the officers asked.“Yes, why?” Mr Miller responded."You are under arrest for physically assaulting Mr Gary here."What the hell were they talking about? Gary was the one who tried to sexually assault me and drugged me in the process. I was not going to stand there and say nothing."Officers, there is a clear misunderstanding. Gary attempted to sexually assault me, and my boss simply came to my aid." I tried to explain, but they did not listen.Gary was undeniably influential, but so was Mr Miller. The police officers did not cuff Mr Miller, they just asked him to follow them."Call my lawyer, Gwen," he said, walking away with the cops.I promptly contacted Mr Miller's lawyer, Attorney Josh

Gwen’ PovI rushed downstairs with a piece of croissant in my right hand and my bag in my left hand. I was late to work and my cab was waiting outside for me.I overslept last night.“Nanny Rose, please make sure the kids take their vitamins and Granny needs some vegetables.”“I might be home late today, so don't wait up for me, once it's 8pm, put the boys to sleep” I said hurriedly.“Okay ma'am,” Nanny Rose replied.“Don't stress the woman Gwen” I heard Granny say.I chuckled and went out of the house.“I am sorry” I apologized to the cab driver for making him wait for me.I would not hear the end of it from Mr Miller today. He never fails to remind me how he detest people who don't keep to time.Luckily, his schedules are free today, so there was no meeting whatsoever that he might need my assistance with.I got to the office about thirty minutes late. My skirt was too clingy therefore limiting my walking steps.“Damn” I cursed. This was one of the reasons I don't like corporate wea

Gwen’s POVMy head felt like it was turning over. It took me a while to understand what was going on.I clenched my head with both hands as my vision grew fuzzy and I started to feel lightheaded.I fell to the ground, blood oozing from my head. Seems like my head had been severely injured.I dragged myself across the room, and then used the center table for support to get on my knees. When I finally managed to turn my head, I saw a feminine figure. “Wha….t do you want?” I managed to ask while preventing my eyes from closing.“I warned you to stay away from James now didn't I?”As soon as I heard Mr Miller's name, I knew it was Martha. She sounded crazy when she threatened me last night, but I had no idea she was completely insane.She bent down and remained in a position that allowed her to face me directly.She wore a sly smile on her face and had a bat in her hand. "You see, Gwen, I am an obsessive person who does not like losing." She paused and stared at me in disgust. "Especia
