By the next day, the streets of Dalton were buzzing with break news once again, newspapers carrying varying headlines, newspapers displayed on different News stands even before the citizens awoke, waiting for them to be picked up,[AIDEN AND HIS ACCOMPLICES ARRESTED – JUSTICE SERVED][RICHARD DAY: THE MAN WHO BROUGHT DOWN DALTON'S MOST WANTED CRIMINALS!][SHOULD RICHARD DAY RETURN AS MAYOR?]Dalton City had seen its share of betrayals, corruption, and scandals, but this one was unique,The entire nation had been affected by Aiden's apprehension, not just the city. The streets outside city hall were bustling with activity, many people arrived with banners and signs in hand; some were chanting Richard's name, while others were demanding Aiden's execution,"Have Richard return!""Mayor Day!"It was a demand rather than merely an expression of gratitude. News reporters were positioned across the city, interviewing residents and gathering opinions from public servants, business owners, an

The smell of freshly brewed coffee blended with the subtle perfume of worn books and polished wood, creating a crisp atmosphere in Tony Caldwell's workplace,It was a place of power, not the corruption-derived kind, but the power that comes from experience, fortitude, and well-considered choices.Andrew Morris had walked into other offices like this one, where prominent figures sat behind opulent desks, their names inscribed on plaques, and their photos hung on the walls as a constant reminder of their legacy,However, this was not like the others because he was ready to confront a leader who wasn’t just any leader but a legendary one.In addition to becoming Ravenwood's Mayor, Tony Caldwell was a legend; he had once been in Andrew's position, struggling to save his city from financial collapse after a scandal nearly brought it to ruin. But Tony, unlike Andrew, had made it through successfully,It was for this sole reason Andrew sought him out, to ask for his help as he was in dire ne

With Andrew running helter-skelter looking for help in the predicament he found himself in, Cassandra was busy with her father who had finally been discharged from the hospital,"Dad, be careful," Cassandra smiled as she helped her father into the house, her father had been discharged after the incident as he had gotten better, but it was still difficult for him to walk,Hence Cassandra had no other choice but to help Harold into the house. As she walked, she found herself grateful that her father was still alive, as the accident had almost had him killed, it was surely a miracle that Harold Delaney was alive."Father, you take a seat, I'll prepare you a meal," Cassandra broke the silence as she helped her father sit, after handing him the remote to the TV, making sure he was comfortable and content with the fruits and drinks she kept beside him.Walking into the kitchen, Cassandra sighed as she started cooking; looking at the empty kitchen, for a moment, she couldn't help but tense

"What should I do?" Andrew muttered to himself, under his breath, his gaze darting around his surroundings,He had been thinking of a way to make Tony do what he wanted, as the latter seemed rather stubborn.All because he had opposed Richard, he was unwilling to help him. Andrew sneered as he recollected Tony's refusal to help him,“Who does that?" He mused loudly, staring darkly,Apparently, no one but the selfish Tony Caldwell didn't see that Andrew was only after the prosperity of his city, yet for his selfish reason, he was unwilling to understand or even lend a helping hand.“Stupid fool who thinks he's all that!" Andrew continued with his complaints, mumbling and narrowing his eyes at nothing in particular.The more he pondered on the situation, the more a sinister thought crept up his mind; if push came to shove, he wouldn't mind making use of extreme measures, and he definitely wasn't going to spare the stupid Tony,As he paced the ground, Andrew continued muttering, his eye

"Sir, you have a visitor," One of Andrew's men rushed over just as he was about to walk out of the office, Andrew's brows furrowed at the words, "A visitor?" He questioned, freezing on the spot as his brows shot up a little, the corners of his eyes squinting; he wasn't expecting anyone. "Do you know who it is?" He asked, storming through his brain for a moment before raising his head to look at the man, The man shook his head as he equally responded, "Well, sir, no..." pausing a little before answering, At his confirmation, Andrew's brows creased further, "No?" Andrew suddenly found himself wondering who had come visiting, he wasn't expecting anyone. Was it someone from the capital, or had his father sent some people over? He couldn't think of anyone who could seek him out, except someone sent by his father. Raising his head, he arched his brow at the man, "Are you sure it's not one of those old men's representatives?" he asked, the expression on his face changi
