Cage couldn't believe what he was seeing as his eyes ran over the contents of the message. It was just too much for him to understand. He scoffed, wondering I'd this whole thing was a joke. Maybe it had been sent to the wrong person or it wasn't actually Chloe who had sent the message. But reading it again, he knew it was her and the message was more than clear. He read it a third time and the shone dropped from his hands. It felt like a punch to the gut. It knocked the wind out of him as he thought about what must have brought this up. Yes, he had expected their relationship to go downhill since she lost to him but this was too far. Was she really going to divorce because she loved her grandfather that much? He thought to himself as a sad laughter escaped his lips. It was just unbelievable how some people behaved, he thought. Could she be really serious or was this some sort of joke? Those rhetorical questions were left unanswered and something nagged at him. It was a feeling that

His phone beeped with a notification from Daryl who thanked him and asked if he had time so they could see anytime soon. He didn't reply to the message, not because he didn't want to or because he didn't want any sort of meeting with Daryl, but because it soon skipped his mind. Nothing seemed to make sense to him any longer. He felt like an empty, hollow shell of a man.The lonely feeling continued to engulf him over the days. He couldn't shake off the weight of her absence no matter how much he tried. Her presence seemed to haunt his thoughts like a relentless ghost. Yes, he had told him that he would stop thinking about her but it was harder than he thought. Every corner of his mind seemed to echo memories of her and every single one was a painful reminder of what they had lost. He hoped that somehow they would have the chance to make things better but that didn't look like it was going to happen. He still wondered if she was still going to send over the papers. He couldn't even im

Cage was already far from his house when he got the shocking news. His heart was pounding as he stared at the news article, after pulling over into an unfamiliar neighbourhood to know why his phone kept ringing persistently with another news. He was shocked by how things were going right now. And if unchecked, it could get worse very soon. The headline blared. "FBI Raids Cage's Home; Suspect on the run!" His stomach chucked. It looked like he was running from the law when he actually wasn't. It was just the perfect description of the universe being against you, he thought. Everything was moving against him now and he was happy that the cops hadn't been alerted because they would have surely had him apprehended and arrested. All he had to do not was to get to his lawyer's office and do what needed to be done. He knew ghat explaining himself would be futile now and there was no need doing so. He needed to act quickly and decisively else his life would be fucked. He dialled his lawyer'

That evening, he returned home and made his way to the living room. The events of the past few days were still taking a toll on him and he couldn't for the whole thing to end. He had just finished talking with Mark about their next move. Plopping down on the couch, he rubbed his temples while trying to ease the headache that was slowly starting to throb in his skull. He shut his eyes for some time, until he heard something. He opened them immediately and wondered where the sound had come from. It sounded like something had fallen but it was closer to a thud than a loud crash. He was the only person in the house and that made him very confused. He didn't expect that anybody would try to attack him, so he pushed off the thought. But the foreboding returned and he decided to check it out. He turned off the television and slowly made his way to the window. Once he got there, he slowly opened the blinds and peered into the distance. The room was very very now and it was only the soft hum

The fact that she was still fidgety despite my attempts to calm her down was a very clear message that she was still very worried and didn't trust us to say what she had to say. But at the same time, her proposition was a very tough one. In one way or the other, she was still going to be dragged into this case no matter what. She had to pay for what she did, but since that was what she wanted before she could give me the answer, then I would do my best to help get her name out of the case as soon as I'd found the mastermind behind this whole scheme. I nodded before replying."No problem, Marcia. Just give us a name and we will be good to go. All you have to do is to tell us who made you do this and we will take care of the rest from here. I'm sure you don't want to suffer for nothing. Is that what you want?" I asked, but she gave me an unsure look. I chuckled internally, knowing that it wouldn't be bad if she went to jail for what she did. She deserved to suffer but there wasn't an
