Rose was at home alone in the room watching a program on television when she heard the voice of her daughter and husband coming upstairs. "They are back." She said to herself. Some seconds later Gerard entered the room closely followed by her daughter. "Mom you are back from where you went to." Casey said."Yes love. I have been back since an hour ago." Rose said. "How are you?" Gerard asked Rose. "I am fine."She replied. Mom I have to go relax because school resumed tomorrow. When I am done relaxing I will have to start preparing." Casey said. "Oh! You are right. A new session starts tomorrow and you have not gotten anything for school." Rose said."Mom! You do not need to bother yourself so much. I really do not need much and besides on our way from the park, I got some of the things I need from the mall." Casey said. Rose' s expression changed. "But Cas, I always do the shopping with you when you are preparing to go to school every new semester or session."Rose said. There was disa
"Are you sure this is a good idea coming to your office at this time of the day?" Oscar asked. "What! can't I come to the office when I feel like there is something that I need to do?" Murdoch asked. "I know you can but I just think that you are going on a wild goose chase because I do not know what you are actually going to look for." Oscar said."Do not worry, everything will be revealed to you soon." Murdoch said and smiled. "I do not like it when you have that look." Oscar said. It was 7:30 p.m. when they got to Murdoch's office. His office was on the second floor of the building. Murdoch was senoir partner and M and Dash Law firm. When he opened the door to his office he sat down on his chair and looked around his office. "Now we are here. What is it you said you wanted to come and search for?" Oscar asked him. "Now let's us figure this out together coz." Murdoch said and he was loving the way he was putting Oscar in a lot of suspense. "Murdoch! I hope you are aware of the fac
After their conclusion that a hidden camera was somewhere in Murdoch's office, their search had produced nothing. From his drawer to his shelve, they searched but came up short. "Bro. I have not seen anything that looks like a camera in your office." Oscar said with frustration evident on his face. Murdoch searched every nook and cranny of his office but saw nothing. Murdoch was also frustrated and disappointed because they thought there was a camera hidden in the office."I am sorry man. I guess we were wrong about our deduction that there was a camera hidden somewhere in your office." Oscar said and sat down on the only single sofa that was in the office. Murdoch sat down on his office chair and he was thinking hard where the person could have hidden the camera. "But if we end up seeing and finding out that, a camera was hidden in your office, then the next question would be, who planted it in your office?" Oscar said. "That will surely be another possible puzzle that we might h
The next day Casey left for school but not before Ben left for work. On his way to work his mind was on Casey. He was really enjoyed their outing lasy night. She was a good girl with a good heart and Ben realised that hewas falling in love with her, something he was denying all along. He had a good reason for denying it. Infact he was suppressing it. He did not want to fall in love with her because of the gap in their social class. Ben was aware of the fear that he had fot Mrs. Rose and in spite of the fact that Gerard was so free towards Ben, he was conscious of the fact that Gerard might not be cool with the idea of Ben dating his daughter.Ben was deep in thought that he was not aware of the fact that he was almost at work. He got down from the and those who saw him the last time he came to the office thought he was just there on a visit not knowing that he was there to work. They were more surprised that it was Mr. Gerard's driver that drove him to work.As he entered the buildin
Ben got home with the image of that girl in his head. He had not felt like that in his life before. Even Casey did not make him feel this way. This worried him because he had not thought about Casey since that lady spoke and waved at him and then spoke to him at the lobby. He felt it was not a good act because he liked Casey but hewas not going to act on that feeling but this lady was starting to invade his mind and he did not know why.The house appeared quiet. Rose was not yet back from her outing. Gerard was in Texas. As he was in the about to take a shower, Mrs. Mendoza came to see him. "Good evening Mrs. Mendoza he greeted when he opened the door after the woman knocked. "How are you Ben?" She asked him. "I am fine ma'am." He said joyfully. "I guess work was good today?" She said. "It was very good. I am learning a lot as each day goes by."Ben said . "That is good to hear. Keep up because there is always going to be a reward at the end of it all because hard work pays Ben." She
Murdoch was a very good lawyer and he took his job extremely serious. He was not a man who enjoyed being on the losing side but when those times came when the case was so difficult and they ended up losing it, he took the loss and moved on. "Maxine, please get in touch with Mr. Bill and tell him that he has to be in my office tomorrow morning." Murdoch told his secretary. She did immediately as she was told. Maxine juststarted working with Murdoch after his former secretary quit to go and start raising a family.The events of a few days ago had not being forgotten by Murdoch. He was still thinking of how the camera came into the office. "Please Maxine, get me in touch with the people who sell those flowers. In a few minutes the call was put through to Murdoch's line. "Good morning. How may I be of help to you." The person on the other line asked. It was actually a woman. "Please, a bouquet of flowers were brought last week to a law firm."Murdoch said. "Oh! I remember because it was
"How are you doing?" Casey said immediately Ben picked up the call. "I am fine. I actually thought of calling you earlier on in the day but after work I went out with a buddy of mine." Ben said. "Wow! It's not up to twenty-four hoursz you already have a friend." Casey said. Ben could notice how dull her voice suddenly became after what he said. "Well it is all good. I am glad you now have a friend now. What is his name?" She asked. "Why do you presume that it is a guy?" Ben asked her."Is it a girl?" She asked with anxiety in her voice. "Nope! It is actually a dude and his name is Brown." Ben said."I am glad to hear that you made a friend." Casey said. "I guess school is going well?" Ben asked her. "Yea! It is." She replied. "Have you patched things up with Mellisa?" Ben asked her. He was hoping they had made up. Ben had forgiven her. Ben now agreed with what Mrs. Mendoza said, when she said that things happened for a reason. He understood now, that if Mellisa had not done what she
Since they cracked the mystery behind the month and year they had received on three occasions now, Oscar and Murdoch had a hard time getting it off their minds. They knew their grandfather who passed away two years ago was a lawyer but they did not know that he was one of the lawyers that were part of the defence council in the case then. They would have wished that he was alive so that they would have been able to ask him a lot of questions about the case. "But I think the person or people sending this note know that out grandfather is no more that is why they sent it to us."Murdoch said. "You are right. That means this peope know us much more than we think they do."What do we do now?" Oscar asked. It was seven in the morning. Murdoch called the office that he would not be coming to work that morning because he had something to handle in his family. "I seriously do not know but we need to have all the information at hand so that we can decipher who exactly we are dealing with here.
