She slipped off the engagement ring, her voice cold. “You’ll never be the man I need,” she said, walking out and leaving me broken. Years later, as I stood successful and untouchable, she begged for my help. My heart ached, but I turned away. “You made your choice,” I whispered.

Framed and imprisoned
“Mr. Norman, you're under arrest!” the officer barked, stepping forward, with handcuffs. Norman glanced up from his desk, unfazed, his eyes cool and steady. “Under arrest? For what?” “For accepting a bribe!” The officer’s gaze hardened, but Norman didn’t flinch, though a flicker of confusion passed through his mind. “There’s been a mistake, Officer,” Norman said, keeping his voice steady. “I’ve never accepted a bribe. Who made this accusation?” “I did, Norman.” Before the officer could respond, the door swung open, and Lana, Norman’s fiancée, stepped inside, her expression twisted with disdain. “I reported you to the police. Now to save yourself from more embarrassment. Go with the police and pay for your crimes.”She said coldly.Norman’s calm wavered slightly as he turned to face her, his brows knitting in surprise. “Lana?” he asked, disbelief creeping into his voice，“What are you saying?““Don’t play innocent,” she snapped. “You took a bribe, and I did what was necessa

Bethany was still really confused. She didn't expect what had happened. Infact, she was in shock. Everything being exposed was way too much for her to comprehend.“So you said it's an old gang, and you managed to disband some of its members, so how did–” Norman paused, his right hand on his chin as he paced around the cell.“Well I'm not sure I did that how. If their logo still exist, and you caught someone from the gang. It was obvious the gang was bigger than I thought.” Bethany’s heart drummed, and she stared at him, more confused. Did he just say bigger? She was already so close to getting a clue, and she found out it was only a drop in the ocean.Furrowed lines wrapped around her face, and she pressed her lips together, her head and eyes lowered as she sank deep with her thoughts.“You really think you didn't stop them enough some years ago? I'm pretty sure there's nothing against them. Besides, there are a lot of things going on right now.” No words were said, and she immedia

Timmy wasn't ready to do my biddings at first, but once I had explained to him about what had happened, he immediately went to his laptop.“So you want me to research about this criminal guy, right?” He asked and Bethany nodded. That was what she needed. She needed him to actually help her dig deeper into it. She stood close to him while he sat on the computer, his eyes squinted as he punched the letters staring at the file I had handed to him for a little while. “Mmmm, he sure has a lot of criminal records. What the hell!” He yelled, and was worried about the way things were. Once he had pressed the search button, he immediately laid back, and placed his hands on his lips.“It seems like there are a lot of things involved. I really don't know what you want to know when you have the necessary information on what was happening. I really needed to do something today, and you're not helping me out by being here.”She frowned. “Shut up and do what you need to do. I need everything for m

Bethany returned back home, troubled, and worried. Her expression was filled with wrinkles, and she couldn't stop acting around her room. Her right thumb, and index finger were on her wrist, and cheek.“So what's the plan? What exactly do you have in mind?” she asked, and there was silence. No one was actually there to respond to her.Asides from her worry about Hassan Drake meeting with an unknown man, she was still worried about the criminal that had been locked up and didn't want to say anything about his gang. “Now that I see Drake making some strange movements, I feel like there are other things underneath that I need to find out. Something I'm not being told.”She sighed, but tried before to contain herself. Everything about the situation seemed to overwhelm her, but she didn't want it to be so.“I'll ensure I investigate, and bring them down. But how do I do that?” she pondered all through the night, sitting on her bed to jot down some clues. She started by taking notes of eve

Once Drake was done striking the deal, he stood up, adjusting his clothes before staring one last time at his newly made business partner.However, there was something else he'll need to handle. His face turned dark as he walked out of the restaurant towards the garage where his car was packed.Upon getting to his car, he pulled open the door, but paused, raising his head to look upwards because something seemed off.His face was filled with wrinkles, his eyes moving around to check for something suspicious.“Hmmm…” he hummed, squinting his eyes as he wondered what was happening, but then he shrugged his shoulders and walked away. To him, there was nothing wrong with what was going onBy the time he entered the car, he inserted the keyhole, the engine roared, and he was set to make everything set. He was trying his best to ensure that things went well as well.Once at his destined stop, he stepped out of the car and also adjusted his suit.He looked around, and then nodded his head. I

Drake was in the restaurant with an unknown man and all these were being watched by Harris, and Bethany. Drake shook hands, and was even smiling, before sipping a glass of wine afterwards.“What's going on there, I really wish to know. I can't see him smiling like that with an unknown figure and not question what the hell is going on. Come on, we need to know what's happening. I mean, there's a lot already on our plate. I need you to understand the way things are.”“Yes I understand. I too want to know what the hell is going on. Drake can't be trusted, and the way he's smiling seems to show that there's something going on. Do you understand what I'm saying?”“Yes, yes I do. I really do. I just want you to know that there's a lot of things involved. But I really think we should storm in there, and interrogate them…” Bethany was the one giving this suggestion. Her eyes were focused on the clear glass that revealed the people in the restaurant, and she frowned her face.Harris on the ot

Bethany went home the day feeling refreshed. She was happy and excited about the dinner. Maybe as a form or a way to ease tension.“So I'm picking you up?” he asked, and she rolled her eyes.“It all depends on you. I mean you have the right to do whatever you want to do, and I'm sure it's better I understand with you, I'm going to pick it up. You agree with that right?” He asked with raised brows, and was shocked when he noticed that she nodded.Bethany was always a hardcore woman who was the most respected in the country. She was always trying her best to fix numerous cases which were okay to her.A smirk appeared on her lips, and she excused herself from his side of the excursion. “See you at 6 then…” she answered immediately, heading to her car which she drove home.On getting home, she couldn't stop thinking. She was worried, and at the same time concerned. Everything that was happening was indeed taking a turn on her, and she needed to relax her mind for a while.She got into

At the station, the robber was taken into custody. He was in the interrogation room, but all he did was stare blankly at whoever was questioning him and blinking.“Who's your leader? Who do you work for? Why are you guys terrorising the town” so many questions were on Bethany's mind, but she didn't know how to answer them. She was confused, and concerned at the same time.She thought the robber was going to be sacred, but it wasn't so. He was rather a tough nut to crack which was a bit concerning to her.“Listen, we are going to give you a chance. Give us the information we need, and we promise we're going to work on your sentence. YOU'RE going to be a hero for helping us think about it.” Bethany was seated, her eyes staring directly into his, but when he blinked again like he usually did, she lost it. She sprung up from the chair, and slammed her hands on the table. Her eyes were fixed on him. What was going on in his head was something she couldn't understand. Bethany knew that

Bethany seemed to be tense as their car raced to where the supposed robbery was taking place. She was so worried, and tried her best to be calm, but it seemed like it wasn't working out in any way.She took in deep breaths as she drove, trying to tell herself that everything was going to be fine. It was only a matter of time before they got to the crime scene, by report reaching her was that the criminals had sealed the exit.“And so? Do what I care about?!” she yelled, and immediately, ordering her square to immediately surround the area.“Yes ma'am!” They answered, and immediately went to work on it. She made stew that the doors were broken, and that they were in.“You're under arrest. You better drop your weapons, and surrender!” She screamed alongside her men that were inside. They were lucky that more men arrived.The robbers who were under masks turned towards themselves, and then before Bethany and her group knew what was going on, a gunshot was heard.The robbers shot a woman

Bethany was still asleep when she heard what was going on. She was shocked, jolting you from sleep due to the way her phone rang. Her eyes were still very heavy from the late night jobs she did, but she managed to search her bed with her bed closed. “Hmm?” she hummed as soon as she picked up the call, and placed it on her ears. However, there was something else involved. Her chest drummed faster than usual, and she was more than worried. Her eyes also snapped open.“What are you trying to say?” she asked, and there was more information following in.“I'm trying to explain that there was a robbery. The robbery was so much that some even got injured. You need to come check it out yourself. Do you understand?”“Alright. Text me the location.” she expressed, and was immediately shocked when she heard more .As soon as the call ended, she sighed, and then looked at the time from her alarm clock.“Five am? A robbery at five? What the hell?!” She screamed, frowning her face. Her brows neede
