Melissa was rounding up for the day when a figure stepped into the room. She was surprised to see Stanley in here. He rarely came in here. The last time he had stepped into the records room was to get information on Jain. That was the first few weeks of her arrival. He had told her he was curious about his partner and wanted to know more about it. Stanley smiled as he stared at Melissa who seemed shocked. He hoped she didn’t know anything about this yet. “Detective Rogers,” Melissa called in shock. “What are you doing here?”Stanley chuckled to himself as he walked forward. It was a strange occurrence today. First, Jain had stepped into the office trying to place back the cases, then she had found out about the other unsolved cases. Melissa had watched Jain leave the office in a hurry after looking at the files. When Melissa had looked at the files, she had noticed something as well. The cases were all closed by Stanley himself. It was suspicious, but there were a lot of suspicious

Detective Jain Reynolds gulped hard as she stared at the barrel that was pointed at her forehead. Her heart was thumping hard against her chest as she stared at Stanley. His face was lit in the bright living room and it displayed a malicious smile on his face. Jain already knew what he was thinking. Her eyes fell to his finger that was gripping the trigger and it was trembling. It looked like he was fighting himself from pulling the trigger too soon. If there was one thing Jain had realized, it was that Stanley was going to kill her. She wasn’t going to make it out of here alive. Stanley had known that Jain would be here. She couldn't just resist being nosy. She had come here a couple of times, the other time he had been here searching for any clue that Tristan had fixed the video, but he had only stumbled across Jain who had also been in there. He had wanted to keep this away from her, but she had always been Tom persistent. She had a knack for nosing around, and that was going to l

“And when I mean big, I mean something huge,” Karen McCullough said. Frederick leaned against his chair and rubbed his chin as they brainstormed. His daughter had just opened his mind to something they hadn’t thought of until now. Carlos Borges was part of the Valdez cartel a few years ago, and so was he. That was where they had first met. He had left the cartel long before the feud between him and Ernesto escalated. What Fredrick didn’t understand was why Ernesto had left San Diego to Carlos’s control. He was the stronger and the most influential of the two. At least that was what he had thought. But tonight, Karen had opened his eyes to the bigger picture. There was a possibility that Carlos had wanted to rule San Diego by himself, and when Ernesto didn’t budge, it led to the separation. Ernesto had fled to Los Angeles while Carlos had remained in San Diego where he had become a menace. The cops couldn’t put him behind bars because they were never able to find incriminating eviden

Williams was pacing the room as he thought of what to do next. Rylan didn’t listen to him, and he feared that. Could he go out and stop Lana from doing something so stupid? Did she even know where to find Stanley? He had recently discovered that Jain was at the warehouse. Could there be a possibility that Stanley was there with her?The only thing Williams could do now was hope. If Stanley was there with Jain, then there was a possibility that Rylan was walking into a trap. How was he going to get out of there unscathed? He didn’t know, but he hoped that he would make it back alive. Arlene was going to kill him if Rylan ended up dead. She didn’t know much about what they were doing. That was why Rylan had been glad when she had moved back to New York. Keeping her in the dark was the best option. It kept her out of harm’s way. But now Rylan was in a lot of danger, and there was nothing he could do about it. Just as he was pacing around the room, a figure stepped into the room and Wil

A black Lamborghini arrived at the driveway of Tristan’s house and came to a halt. The door opened and Rylan stepped out of the car. He was hoping that he was late. Jain was somewhere in here and so was Stanley. He bet that Stanley hid her somewhere. This was a trap, and he was walking right into it but Rylan didn’t care. He had to save Jain. He had made a promise to her, he was going to keep that promise. Rylan got back into his car and pulled out the drawer on the dashboard. In there were two .40 glocks and a black mask. Rylan pulled out the mask and picked out only one of the glocks. He wondered if it was okay to wear the mask. Stanley should have known he was coming by now, so there was no need to hide his face. But it could be an element of surprise. Rylan shoved the .40 Glock into his inner suit pocket and wore the mask. He was ready now. All he had to do was get in there and save Jain. It sounded so waxy, but Rylan knew it wasn’t. This was just like that time he had saved La
