AFTER THE interrogation, Brenda recorded Damian’s information and fingerprint. Brenda also scheduled a drug test for him and a questioning to conduct further investigation. Since Damian was arrested without a warrant for a murder case, he needed to be detained at the police station for a certain period, at least while the investigation was ongoing. The court trial would also begin soon since the Medivien family officially filed a case against him.“Call us if you need something,” said the prison guard as he locked the cell door, where Damian was currently staying. “But it will be better if you won’t disturb me. A killer like you shouldn’t even be treated properly like this.”Damian sighed as he was trying to maintain composure, yet he failed. His blood pressure increases as he is enraged, seeing that he is the one being imprisoned instead of the true killer.‘The killer had a good strategy. In just a snap, he was able to frame me up like this and made every plan accurate so I won’t h

ALL OF a sudden, Veron stood up and gave Damian a warm hug. “For now, this may be the last time I will see you this close. But like how I didn’t give up on finding you when I lost you, I will not also give up on taking you out of here either,” said Veron.Damian smiled, feeling reassured by Veron’s statement. They were enjoying their little time of being with each other, but a few seconds later, they heard the doorknob clacking. It was the prison guard, who was opening the door using the master key now.“He will be able to go inside in a few seconds,” Veron said, and although he wanted to hug Damian more, he needed to let him go for now. “Be careful, son,” was the last thing he said before the lights turned off.Damian was shocked, not expecting that to happen. The surroundings became dark again, and there was suddenly a creeping fear inside his body. He wasn’t used to darkness, no matter how brave he might be.As expected, the prison guard went inside, and he was the one who opened

DAMIAN DIDN’T know that much about the law, but he knew that asking someone in this manner could be prevented by the defense lawyer… But his lawyer did nothing and even acted like nothing happened.However, everyone was shocked at his answer.“I didn’t kill her,” Damian said, his tone firm.“Answer properly, or there will be a high possibility for you to be convicted with the death penalty,” the prosecutor warned him. “What is your motive?”Damian looked the prosecutor in the eye intently as he answered again, “I didn’t kill her.”“Yes, you did.”Suddenly, a woman’s voice, which was familiar to Damian, reverberated in the courtroom. Everyone turned around and saw that it was Ava, who looked pitiful in her current state.“Ava, what are you doing here?” Ethan, who was sitting at the corner of the courtroom, stood up as he approached Ava. “You should be staying at the hospital since you just gave birth.”“I told her the same thing earlier, but she insisted on going here,” Carson, who was

‘IT WASN’T how a criminal should react after being convicted of life imprisonment. But why is Damian smiling ear-to-ear, as if he won the lottery?’That was everyone’s question in their mind as they watched Damian being held by two police officers on his both sides, ready to escort him to the prison bus as he was being transferred to the main prison.Damian walked past the Medivien family, and Ava gritted his teeth upon seeing how Damian twitched his lips, especially as they made eye contact.“What the heck… Why did the judges only give a life imprisonment as a verdict?” Ava asked, her brows furrowing. “I did hear them mentioning about the lack of evidence. But out of all the evidence they saw that was pointing to Damian as the killer, what type of evidence do they still need?”“I don’t know either,” Ethan answered, his tone colder than usual. “What I only know is that luck is always on Damian’s side. No matter what situation he is in, there will be a time that fate will be in his fav

WHEN DAMIAN woke up, he was already in a small room. It was dark and quiet inside. There were not enough lights to see the whole place, but the moonlight was enough to see the people surrounding Damian.They looked cruel, not to mention that they were carrying different weapons. Some were holding baseball bats, while some were holding knives.‘How did they even have those weapons here?’ Damian thought, his brows furrowing. ‘The killer had a connection even inside the prison, too?’“What’s with the expression? Are you afraid that we will kill you using the weapons we have?” Ricardo, the gang leader of the team in front of Damian, asked. “Don’t worry, we are instructed not to do it, but we had permission to hurt you.”Ricardo and his team laughed devilishly as they raised their weapons. Of course, they weren’t going to use it on Damian. It was just a prop to instill fear in Damian, which they thought they instilled successfully.But they were shocked when Damian smirked, despite being a
