Chapter 71

ALEX'S POV As I sat in that cold cell, I was surrounded by the stench of sweat and desperation. The guy next to me, a burly man with a thick beard, kept trying to strike up a conversation. "Hey, what's your story, friend?" he asked, eyeing me with a mixture of curiosity and suspicion. I've been wrongly accused and imprisoned, torn away from my loved ones and forced to endure the harsh realities of life behind bars. It was hard to want to relate with others.I shrugged, not wanting to get into it. "Just a mistake, man. I didn't do what they say I did." He chuckled, a deep rumble that made me want to roll my eyes.

DANTE'S POV  I sat at my desk, staring at the stack of papers in front of me. Landon was pacing back and forth across the office, his mind racing with thoughts. "We need to do something, Dante," he said, stopping in front of my desk. "We can't just sit here and do nothing." I nodded in agreement. "I know. But what can we do? We've hit a dead end." Landon sighed. "We need to involve the police. It's the only way we can clear Alex's name and catch the real culprit." I nodded, knowing he was right. "Let's go talk to Rhonda first. See what she thinks." Landon nodded, and we headed out of the offic

LINDA'S POV  I sat in the prison visitation room, trying to make small talk with my parents. My dad was being his usual jovial self, but my mom seemed off. "Hey, kiddo, how's life behind bars?" my dad asked, chuckling. I laughed. "It's not so bad. I've got my books and my thoughts." My mom sighed. "Linda, this isn't funny. You're in prison." I rolled my eyes. "Come on, Mom. Don't be so serious. I'm fine." My dad jumped in, trying to lighten the mood. "Hey, at least the Addams family is getting a taste of their own medicine. I mean, who would have thought that Alex Addams would end up in prison

RHONDA'S POV   I walked into the living room, where Olivia was sitting on the couch, staring blankly at the TV. My mind immediately flashed back to what I had seen and the suspicion I had been having. I couldn't help but think back to when we first moved into this house. Olivia had seen Dante's picture on the mantle and had blushed, telling me that he was her crush in high school. I had thought nothing of it at the time, assuming it was just a harmless teenage infatuation. But now, seeing the way Olivia and Dante interacted, I couldn't help but wonder if there was more to it. I didn't want to believe it, though. They were step-siblings, after all. It was unlikely that they would develop romantic feelings for each other

KENOLLY’S POV  I was about to make my escape, my bags packed and ready by the door. I had been watching the news, and I knew the police were closing in on me. I had to get out, and fast. Just as I was about to leave, I heard the bang on the door. My heart skipped a beat as I realized it was the police. I didn't hesitate, I jumped out the window and landed hard on the ground below. But unfortunately, there was an officer down, waiting to ambush me. He had anticipated my move and was ready for me. I fought him off and I took off, my heart was racing with fear. I could hear the police shouting behind me, but I didn't look back. I kept running, my legs pumping as fast as they could. I darted down a busy street, weaving in and out of pedestrians. Some of them shouted a

DANTE'S POV I was about to leave the police station, feeling overwhelmed and frustrated. Kenolly's refusal to speak had left me seething with anger. I couldn't believe he was being backed up by someone, though I wondered who. I needed to take a break, from the asshole and his smirk. As I reached the door, I saw a familiar face walking in. It was Jill, Linda's mother. My ex-girlfriend's mother. I hadn't seen her in months, not since the trial. But now, here she was. And I was still reeling from Kenolly's interrogation. I felt like I was being punched from all sides, like I couldn't catch a break. I stopped in my tracks, my anger boiling over. What was she doing here? Did she know something about Kenolly? Was she invo

Chapter 77

UNKNOWN POV Detective James observed Kenolly's demeanor change from arrogance to desperation, his confident smile slowly slipping away as the hours ticked by. It had been eight hours since their last interrogation, which had led to nothing. He had been boasting about his high-powered law firm, Smith and Associates, but it seemed like he had been abandoned, left to fend for himself. As the detective watched from the one-way mirror, Kenolly's eyes began to dart back and forth, his mind racing with the consequences of speaking out. He knew that if he cooperated with the police, he would be a dead man in prison, targeted by John's henchmen. His only option was to accept the charges and take the fall for John's crimes, but the weight of that decision was crushing him. Kenolly's t

ALEX'S POV I sat in my cell, mindlessly reading a book to pass the time. The words blurred together on the page as my mind wandered to all the things I would do if I were ever released. I had only been in here for a week, but it felt like an eternity. Then, I heard the sound of the warden's keys jingling outside my cell. I sighed, wondering what was going on. "Addams, you're coming with me," the warden said gruffly. I didn't respond, didn't even look up from my book. I set my book aside and followed him, curious. Where were we going? As we walked, the warden didn't say a word. I began to wonder if I was in trouble.

UNKNOWN POVMeanwhile, Detective James had been questioning John Anderson for hours, but John had remained stubbornly silent, confident that his legal team would get him out of this mess. John Anderson sat in his cell, his mind racing with thoughts of his impending release. He had hired the best lawyers in the city, to defend him and his company in case of these eventualities, and he was sure they would find a way to discredit the evidence and get the charges dropped. Just as he was starting to feel a sense of hope, Detective James walked into the cell, a smug look on his face. "Anderson, I think you're counting your chickens before they hatch. You have no legal team anymore." he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. John looked

ALEX POV I sat in the courtroom, my heart racing with anticipation. The trial of John Anderson, the man who had ruined my life, was finally here. I had waited for this moment for so long, and I was ready to see justice served. As I looked around the courtroom, I saw the familiar faces of Detective James and Mrs. Jill, John's wife. She had been a surprise witness, and I was grateful for her bravery. The prosecutor, a tall, imposing figure, began the proceedings. "Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the case before us today is one of deceit and conspiracy. John Anderson, a wealthy businessman, used his power and influence to frame an innocent man, Alex Addams, for a crime he did not commit." I felt suddenly emotional as
