Chapter Seventy-One

After calling the ambulance, she dropped herself to the floor and cried in bits.Her initial silent whimpers graduated into a deep wailing. Her heart was extremely heavy at that moment.She had no doubt at this point but to conclude that her Mom abhorred her. If not, why would she go as far as killing him?What pain is more higher than what Mrs Rhoda Bennett is about to make her pass through?She took out her phone and dialed her Mom's number. She wasn't expecting that she would pick up but she did.A deafening silence breezed in from both ends of the phone.There was no point in pretending or acting up. She knew that Evelyn must have found out everything by now.She was even shocked that the news hadn't flown into the radio station yet.“Don't pretend like you don't know that our home is on fire right now.” Evelyn started, speaking in her lowest tone.Since things have gone this far, she didn't want to risk getting caught by the corps or investigation team. She made sure to speak in

“Please calm down. You are going to hurt yourself if you continue like this.” Raymond said and consoled her.“Tell me this is an illusion.” Isa said, peering into his face. He tried to hold her tightly and hug her once more but she slipped out from his hands. She walked straight into the house. Her eyes locked with Douglas's eyes as soon as she walked in. For some minutes, she stood transfixed at her position staring at him with parted lips. She shouldn't act surprise anyways. Besides, she already knew that he came because of Evelyn.Her gaze shifted to Evelyn's face. She couldn't see any trace of sadness on their faces. There were still patches of excitement lingering on Evelyn's face from what Douglas had told her.For the first time, Isa didn't flinch seeing Douglas around her. She ignored them and made for the staircase.Her feet were heavy as she walked along the staircase. She didn't want to ponder on anything yet. She just wants to get into Mr Bennett's room.She wasn't sure

“Then, get to work and stop interrogating her.” Douglas shrieked at the Corp.The Corp made a silent scoff and looked away.“Who are you to tell me how to go about my work? You are not even married to her.” He mumbled, loud enough for everyone to hear.Everyone's gaze fell on the heavily bodied Corp who didn't seem scared of Douglas or bothered about his status. Those words caused Douglas's teeth to tighten in rage.“How dare you asshole?” Douglas threatened bitterly.Meanwhile, the man had continued going about his business as soon as spouted those words. He didn't care if his words would hit hard on anyone.“How dare you? Do you know I can sue you for this statement?” Douglas retorted at his own words.He advanced towards the man who was standing transfixed at a spot.Their eyes locked into each other's eyes. Douglas was panting like he was going to explode on the him but the latter didn't flinch one bit.“There are certain things that money can't buy. And there are things that can'

“Over there.” Raymond said, pointing at the back seat.Isa gently crawled into the back seat, making sure she avoided the navigator chamber.Her eyes traveled to the documents hanging inside what seemed like a bag attached to the back of the driver's seat.She quickly grabbed it and opened it. She scanned her eyes through the first page. It was the introductory part of Mr Bennett's will.Where he took his time to introduce all the staff and executives in Bennett's company. He also went ahead to draft out the relationship he had with each person and mentioned three persons she could trust the documents with.Isa's heart was beating nonstop as a series of thoughts drifted inside her head. She didn't know where all this was leading to.Before she went over to the next page; where she was certain that she would find the statement of his will, she paused and puffed out.She wondered why her father did what he did. She knew nothing about the company. She has been kept in the shadows all her

Chapter Seventy-Five

“Besides, when did it become so easy to get the priest's approval in a couple of hours?” The lab director retorted to his own words.“Right.” Raymond nodded in affirmation.“All I know is that getting an approval from a priest can take weeks before it could be approved since it passes through the priests to the bishop to get it signed.”“I thought so too.” The lab director responded and continued sprinkling the brownish substance on the plant shoots.“The priest said they are rushing the burial because of her health condition.” Isa mumbled and sighed in exasperation.“What sort of health condition?” The lab director asked, retracting the test tube from the plant shoots to cast a glance on his wrist watch.“I can't tell. She might have forged a medical report to deceive the priests…” Raymond cut through his words and paused instantly.The plant shoots were drastically changing to what he couldn't fathom.“What is going on?” “Does the substance lead to fast aging?” She asked, scrutiniz

Chapter Seventy-six

Just as Evelyn walked her Mom to her room, she made her lie on the bed and tossed the duvet over her body, allowing it to stop around her shoulder.She paced to and fro, thinking of the next steps to take. She had heard Douglas offering to walk the Corp around the Mansion, the pit of her stomach churned in uneasiness.What if the Corp finds something?No way, she would definitely go and find them and restrict him from going into some areas.Just as she was about to leave, her Mom called her with a soft voice.“Evelyn, come back.” Mrs Rhoda Bennett mumbled and puffed out hot air, shoving off the duvet from her body.Evelyn was astounded. She turned around and saw her Mom already seated straight up on the bed.She lost her words for a few minutes.“Mom…I thought you passed out.” She stammered, advancing towards the bed.“Hmmm…” Mrs Rhoda Bennett muttered with a scoff. She tilted her neck sideways for a crack.“I had to do what I knew how to do in order to tear off accusing fingers that

Chapter Seventy-seven

Back at Bennett's mansion, Raymond drove into the compound at a high speed. He drove in with a high speed, not expecting to see any other car in the parking space except for Mrs Rhoda Bennett's car.There was a black Acura parked beside Mrs Rhoda Bennett's car.As she climbed down from Raymond's car, she stared intensely at the car. “It's just a car. Why are you mopping at it that way?” Raymond teased, following her gaze.“C'mon, we have to go in. Once everything is over, I am going to get you exactly this type of car if that's what you want.” He added and jammed the car door.Isa's gaze wouldn't tear off one bit from the Acura car. It didn't seem as if she was staring at the car in admiration.The car reminded her of something.What exactly? She mumbled to herself and racked through her brain.“This car looks familiar, right?” She asked Raymond with a curious glimpse.“I don't think so.” Raymond replied with a shrug.“If you say so.” She responded and turned around to go into the ma

“But you know what, I aren't acting any drama this time around. I'm doing this for the safety of my health.” Mrs Rhoda Bennett mumbled and snapped her fingers.Isa ran her eyes over the latter's body in scrutiny.No matter what she said, she wasn't ever going to take in her words.She felt this was the only opportunity for her to pay her last respect to her father.That last picture of him couldn't leave her memory. She continued replaying his soothing voice in her head. She wouldn't have believed it if someone had told her that it would be the last time she would get to see or speak to her father.At this point, she felt like giving up on everything; her revenge plans. She felt like backing off and running away to a far away land.Because for some minutes, she wondered what would be her yield if she eventually won the battle.Would she be the only person to celebrate her victory? Her Mom and her father have joined their ancestors.What if she backs off and disappears to a far away c

Chapter Seventy-Nine

She stubbornly struggled with him. Corp Bellick's rage heightened instantly. He forcefully locked her wrists inside the cuffs and escorted her to the Hilux.He didn't care anymore. She must have thought that this case would turn out like the numerous cases where they got a special order from the general not to meddle into Bennett's family affairs.Not anymore. Not when Mr Bennett died a cold death. He knew the general and of how much he hated Mrs Rhoda Bennett.Perhaps, he would use this opportunity to reopen her formal cases; the cases that were buried due to Mr Bennett's influence.Mrs Rhoda Bennett turned around and her last gaze fell on Isabella.Isa bit her lips. She could feel the pit of her stomach churned in excitement. This is exactly how she would punish each and everyone of them.She knew that in no time, she would be granted bail. She assumed she would use Mr Bennett's burial as a key excuse.She didn't care, she just wanted to do what she always wanted to do.“An autopsy.

Chapter Seventy-Nine

On the express road to the city, Raymond had to ask for directions to the hospital where the ambulance came from.He couldn't bear seeing the look on Isabella's face anymore. She looked so pathetic, embracing the brown envelope like it meant the whole world to her.“Isa, I don't like what you are doing right now.” He mumbled and pressed the deceleration button. “What I'm I doing?” She mumbled, trying hard not to look up at his face.“If you are confident that you did nothing wrong, why then are you avoiding looking up?” He asked, keeping his gaze glued at her.Isa kept mute. She couldn't feel the breeze from the high speed of the car. She imagined that something had gone wrong and finally looked up to check for herself.“Just the traffic.” He responded before her eyes met with his.At that moment, she swallowed a lump. She felt wet tears gathering in her eyes. She must have been deeply in tears that's why she didn't notice it on time and now, Raymond's gaze.She just wished that he d
