A Slumdog Heir Chapter 136
136 At the station, both Axel and Martin were locked up in a cell while Shawn, Eric and Jenny sat with the detective, giving evidences of all what they've done."I think there is one more person that needs to be arrested" Eric said"Who?" Shawn asked"Jackson Dream. I think he works with them too" Eric replied "About that..." The detective meddled "Our boys are on our way to get him""Really?" Shawn blinked in surprise "does he really work for them?""Yeah. You remember the doctor who died in our cell, right?""Yeah" Shawn nodded "Turns out he was actually the one who came in and strangled her""Ugh? How is that possible, what in the world were your boys doing?" Eric scoffed in disbelief"He paid the lieutenant in charge a handsome amount and also paid the security in charge of the CCTV so the footage was deleted" the detective explained, looking kind of disappointed that his fellow officers joined hands with a criminal to kill a human who they should protecting"That's just so bad
A Slumdog Heir Chapter 1
Chapter 1 Colin's phone pinged. He had a message, who would send a message this late? "Could you come over to the room? It's pretty urgent" the message read. It was from Catherine, she was his wife, Marissa’s sister. He hurriedly rushed to the other part of the house where her house was located without as much second thought. "Catherine? Cate? Are you in there? Please open the door" Colin called out when he heard no answer. Colin was troubled, he wondered what could have gone wrong that was so urgent. And to think he had left their room in a hurry without telling Mary first. He had a lot of explaining to do knowing how his wife was. He had moved into her family's home after they had gotten wedded as the family would have it no other way. It was either he agreed to move in with them or risk losing Marissa. He had chosen the former as he is so in love with Marissa. Not that they had treated him any better than a servant. He endured it all for Mary. She was the only reason h

Chapter 2"What do you want from me?" Colon yelled, to no one in particular. This was all a plan, a very good one at that to get him to divorce Marissa. If he agreed to the divorce, he would give them what they have always longed for: him being out of their lives. If he didn't, he would be risking his image and the reputation of his wife, something Marissa would not want. He was left in a dilemma, perhaps dilemma was an understatement for what this was. It wasn't always like this. No, it wasn't this way 3 years ago. Three years ago, Colin was someone they had wanted. He had gotten married to Marissa then, all thanks to the old lord of the house. He was a great man of honor and respect and treated him as such. Perhaps, they only endured so much because he was here at the time. Just a few months after he had died, Colin noticed a change. They no longer served him food, he was made to perform domestic chores. Hell, they became so bent on getting him to divorce Marissa. Only
A Slumdog Heir Chapter 3
Chapter 3 Colin was left speechless, if anyone had told him Marissa would betray him like this, he wouldn't have believed it. For three years, she had stuck with her, come rain or sunshine. Despite his love not being reciprocated, he never looked at another woman. Yet, this is what he got in return. She said she wasn't ready to have or be intimate with him, so he waited. Patiently, he waited for when she would be ready and come to him. Today, he sees her in the arms of another man, a stranger. He fights the thought in his head. The one of her being in bed with another but him.The thought of her moaning to someone else's touch but not him. How could he live like this? Like a fool, one with no direction or purpose. For three years, he was their puppet and did all the dirty work they dared not do. He did every last thing they had asked him to do yet, it wasn't enough. They wouldn't even let him go find a job and work like everyone else. They had insisted he stayed home and

Chapter 4 "Are you denying these allegations?" The judge had asked "Yes, I am" Colin answered, almost in a whisper "Then we have no option than giving you a weightier punishment" the judge had declared."A weightier punishment? Why?" Colin had asked, already knowing the answer. He should have known better, that he was fighting a lost cause and his would be no different. "You know why. You have refused to admit your crimes to reduce your sentence" one of the members of the families gathered had said "There was no crime in the first place, this is all a setup" Colin had objected "Do you have any proof?" Catherine had asked and Colin went silent. There was no way he could prove what he had just said. The text message she had sent to him, the cousins had made sure to delete. There were photos of him holding her inappropriately. They had too many thongs to prove that he did what he did. Any judge in a court of law would readily accept the evidence before him. It would be fooli

Chapter 5 So much for trust and love, Colin thought and gave a wry smile. Just then, when he was about to go see what to do with his life, his phone rang."Why would anyone be calling at this time?" Colin wondered and decides to not pick up the call. The phone rang another 2 to 3 times and Colin finally decides to answer, perhaps it could be important. He feared it could be one of the Williams calling to further humiliate him. Or give him a piece of their tongue, something he was tired of listening to. He had heard enough to last him for a lifetime. "Hello" the caller had said at the other end "Yes, hello" Colin had answered, he had immediately recognized the caller and it was not who he had feared. The voice was one of an elderly man, probably in his late fifties or middle sixties. "I just saw the news" he started "Of course you did, so much I had to take" Colin answered, his voice sad. Besides, he already knew what the caller would say next, talk about Marissa. "I warne

Chapter 6"You have three months to do whatever it is you have to do. After the three months, I am not sure there is anything I can do to convince your father anymore" The housekeeper finished, sighing."Three months is more than enough time for me to get my revenge" A smiling Colin had said, he knew his plans were starting to come to life"One more thing though, activate my deactivated accounts" Colin ordered "All of it?" The housekeeper asked in surprise"No, just one of it""It is done, I'll send you your card and bank details right away, be careful" The housekeeper advised "Will do, thank you. How much do I have in this account you just activated?" Colin inquired"About 300 million?" The housekeeper responded proudly, he knew he was going to get in trouble if Colin's father found out, but ig was worth the risk"That should do, thank you" Colin replied joyfully"I'll be waiting for when you are done then" "I will keep you updated" Colin promises. Taking one last look at the Wi

Chapter 7"Call a member of this family in charge of the hotel and ask about it," he says "Yes, that I can do" Marissa agrees. Marissa takes out her phone quickly and dials a number. "Yes, did we not judge to your satisfaction?" The voice had asked when he answered the phone"No, you did too well. However, it is not why I had called" Marissa says "What is it then?" He inquires"It is about Colin" Marissa starts"Him again? Didn't you say there is no problem?" He asks confused"I did but this is about you" Marissa blurts out"I'm listening" Marisa could hear him take in deep breaths from the other end of the phone"Did you not promise to keep him out of play and without a job?" Marissa asks"Of course and I intend to keep it" He answers sharply"Looks like you are not" Marissa objects"What do you mean?" His voice twitches "It looks like Colin might likely have been offered a job in your hotel" Marissa explains in a haste, she wanted to make sure Colin's life was miserable"That i
