On their way to Elizabeth's place, Michelle started showing signs of having a cold and fever which got Mark scared. He tried to warm her up by wrapping his hands around her in addition to the pullover but it never helped her condition, it only got worse which got him scared to the guts.Luckily, there was no traffic jam on the way so they were able to get to Elizabeth's place before nightfall. Mark was allowed to go in by the security personnel and he sat in the living room with Michelle waiting for Elizabeth.One of Elizabeth's maids went to inform her of Mark and Michelle's presence which made her smile. Just as she had expected, they showed up. She quickly rounded up what she was doing as she couldn't wait to see her daughter again but on the thoughts of Mark, she frowned deeply, biting her lips.He was a huge threat to her which she wouldn't deny and he had already planned to use this opportunity to remove him from Michelle's life. As she had come back home, she would never go bac

Mark went to meet the manager to know about the announcement he made and other developments to be prepared for anything.The manager welcomed him and explained everything to him which he saw as a very good idea. They talked about other things and the manager promised to make sure he informs him of anything he has in mind to do before announcing it so he can be able to share and contribute his ideas as the company owner.Mark thanked him and left after making him know he would be leaving early. He later left around the evening as he wanted to meet up with Michelle and spend some time with her before his mother-in-law who he guessed was out would return and meet him.Mark thought about something he would buy for Michelle. He remembered that he needed to give her something special as it had been a long time since he got a gift for her.He searched his wallet and found one of his black credit cards."Please take me to the best Mall in town, I need to do some shopping," Mark declared and

After a thirty-minute chauffeured drive, the family alighted at John’s also expensive mansion which was situated in a secluded area, with minimal houses in sight. The couple shared a look before proceeding into the mansion. There in the upstairs lounge was John seated, engrossed in a magazine with a cigarette stick pressed against his lips.“Parker? What a surprise. You didn’t tell me you were coming over.” John said, looking away from his magazine on noticing his good friend’s presence.“I’m only here with my family without prior notice because there’s trouble,” Parker explained, putting his hand over his wife’s shoulders.“Trouble? Why!” John exclaimed, setting down his magazine.“They’re after the Safe. I swear, they’ve been following me all day and I feel it’s time I return the Safe to Texas, I shouldn’t have brought it back in the first place all it has done is endanger my family and myself.”“ So I presume you’re here to have me take it to Texas,” John asked, puffing out wisps

Mr. Parker bowed his head and shook it side to side in sadness and disappointment. That bullet wasn’t the one that killed his bosom friend, he was. He was the one who endangered him and his family and now, he was gone. Gone forever. All because of him.Everyone was shocked and scared, traumatized by not only this but the recent spree of bloodshed. Mia had shielded her daughter with her hand and used the other to cradle her son. John's two sons began to cry for their dear dad. No one knew where the bullet had come from, it could be anywhere. And that guaranteed that more shots may follow. They had to leave this place immediately.“Jenna got up. We have to leave.” Mr. Parker said to the bereaved woman. She ignored him.After waiting a while with no response, Mr. Parker decided to speak again. “Jenna I said we have to ““Leave me alone. Leave me alone Parker. Because of you and you're stupid Safe, I lost my husband today.”Jenna was right. It was his fault. Mr. Parker shut his eyes ti

Ma'am Elizabeth completed the story with tears in her eyes. That was how she lost all the members of her family.Michelle also couldn't hold back her tears, no wonder her mom never cared to tell her what happened to her grandparents whenever she asked after them. It was a painful memory as a child for her back then and she understood why she had avoided talking about it all this while but her concern was how it all related to her husband Mark so she went ahead to ask her mother."I was told that Peter, who killed my parents, was Mark's late grandfather. Why do you think I should accept him into the family his grandfather wiped off the surface of the earth," Elizabeth replied with hate and anger in her eyes."But you ain't certain about it mother. You cannot hold a grudge against an innocent man all because of the information you received that I am not sure you are sure of," Michelle replied and immediately her mother stood up burning with rage."So you don't believe me and want to sti
