CHAPTER FORTY TWO
As Victor and Michael sat in the car, the tension in the air was palpable. Michael couldn't contain his frustration any longer.He was mad at Victor for not letting him to mention Mr Alejandro Martinez as his prime suspect. Didn't he want the police to have a hint of the internal feud there at the company. Michael thought it unwise to conceal his prime suspect."Victor, I need to know why you didn't want to tell the police about our suspicion of Mr. Alejandro. You know as well as I do that he's the prime suspect in all of this," Michael exclaimed.Victor sighed deeply, his face reflecting the weight of the situation. "I didn't want to involve the police yet because I want to handle this matter personally. If we go to the authorities right away, we might not get the evidence we need to prove Alejandro's involvement.""What are you saying?" Michael put on a disagreeable look. "I mean it is very clear that Mr Alejandro is the cause of all these. I have the audio record of the time he p

CHAPTER FORTY FOUR
Victor's breath caught in his throat as Steffen entered the hospital waiting area with this elderly woman. The memories of that fateful night when Patricia had betrayed his tust by cheating on him and openly saying that their time together was all but a lie.

As the car slowed down, he continued to watch Rachel, admiring not only her beauty but also the determination with which she engaged with her potential voters.A realization dawned upon Victor as he observed Rachel's campaign efforts.

"This Rachel, what department is she?""She belongs to the department of mass communications."Victor then looked arkwardly at Micheal. "Why does she want to run for director of socials when she is studying to become a journalist?" He asked. "I don't see the fit.""I think you should ask her that. I only know a little about her."

"Dude we are not even inside the school yet and you want to drop? Remember the venue for your class is about twenty minutes walk from here.""Michael. I guess I am usin

CHAPTER FORTY EIGHT
Victor looked confused, and he took out his phone so he could put a call across to Keegan in case anything ugly unfolds.He was proven wrong, when he saw Jose's macho men wait behind after he had said some few words to them. Both guys nodded and with that done, Jose began to make strides towards Victor.Victor took a deep breath. "I swear to God you are so lucky Jose, today might surely have been your last." Victor whispered to himself.Jose was now close to Victor and Victor chose to start off with a greeting. "Hello Jose…"Jose hurriedly gripped Victor's arm and dragged him rudely to a solitary place somewhere at the corners of the electronic library."Jose! What are you doing?" Victor asked, with his face displaying elements of surprise and uncertainty. "Let me go!"Jose was silent and kept on dragging Victor until they had reached the solitary corner of the library where Jose left him."What was that for?" Victor asked angrily."Nothing. Except that it was to keep people from sus

Today is the day you are supposed to examine Mr Steffen's mother.""Of course I am on my way, how could I forget young master.""That's great. Did Steffen sponsor your flight?"

"Hello, who is this?" Victor asked as he moved to a quiet corner just outside Steffen's mother's room."Hello Victor, it is Rafaela Kepas aka Raffy sugar.""Oh Raffy sugar what's up?""I am fine." Raffy sugar replied."Hope you are ready for this?""Of course I am ready for this. I am fully dressed and what remains now is for you to give to me the goddamn address." She replied casually."Okay yes. The address where Mr Steffen's duplex is located at Carrera De La Vigo, and few minutes drive from Carrera de las Estrellas. It is the only duplex there and it sure would not be much of a problem finding the house." Victor said as he glanced around to check if there were any security cameras."Okay. I will be there as soon as I can." Said Raffy sugar with a pop of bubblegum overhead at the background.Victor then hanged up the call, before walking straight back to Steffen mother's room.
