Jason was eventually taken by the police, he spent three days and night at the cell because, Audrey couldn't afford to bail him, since the hotel never paid him.
On the third day, he was finally able to raise some money for the bailing levy, after working for more hours and begging a few friends.
Although, Donald still threatened to take the issue to court. He wanted a verdict to be passed on Jason, for assaulting him. As they walked along the narrow street leading to their small apartment, people looked at Jason and murmured, while the others laughed."Guess the news has gone viral ugh?" Jason asked in a sad tone, with his head facing the ground in embarrassment.Audrey slightly nods his head, before Patting Jason's back. He was so depressed and life sucks at this point of his life. People around laughed at him everywhere he went, he tried allowing it not to bother him so much, but it was so difficult. A sigh of relief breathe through his lips, the moment they got into their apartment. For the few hours he was going to be inside, no one would mock him.The next day came too quick. For the first time, Jason felt reluctant to go to school or meet people. But at the same time, he couldn't shut himself in his room forever as he needed to work and earn money, else he would have to drop out of College.Jason was a final year student, studying business administration, while Audrey was studying Electrical engineering.Audrey suggested that they went to school together, so he wouldn't feel lonely, especially when people begin laugh. They parted ways after entering the school compound, going to their different department.The first lecture had just began when suddenly there were sounds of loud siren, coming from the school compound. The lecturer tried to ignore and focus on his teaching, but the siren grew louder as the cars drew near.The students seem distracted already, so he left the class to figure out what was happening. Hardly had the lecturer stepped out, when everyone ran to the window, in order to also get some clue about what was happening. Fifteen identical black cars, were parked in front of their department; they were all lined up accordingly. They were still staring in awe, when different able bodied men in black suit and dark eyeglasses step out from the cars, running towards one of the car which seemed quite different from the others and more expensive. From the look of things, they were protecting a prominent person. "Poor Jason, they are here to pick you up again." A boy said mockingly.The deputy vice chancellor of the university also drove in, and went to speak with the prominent person who just arrived. He spoke with the person through the window, making it difficult for the curious student to figure out who it was. After ending the conversation, he glanced at the class window and his eyes met with Jason's, but Jason wasn't frightened since he knew he hasn't committed any crime.However, he hoped silently that they weren't here for him, as he walked back to his seat, trying to hide his fear from his classmates who were already giving him sympathetic looks.
"Jason Jones, you have been summoned by the School Vice-chancellor. Meet him at his office now," The information was broadcasted by the school announcing team.Jason rose up from his chair, immediately heading to the Vice-Chancellor's office as he pondered on why he might want to see him. The Vice-chancellor was barely around, not to mention, having time to meet with student; the case must be a serious one.
At that moment, he wished for the ground to swallow him, different thoughts ran through his head that he barely took notice of students looking at him, until he finally found himself in front of his door. Jason knocked and entered without being ushered in."Mr. Jones, nice to have you in my office today, please come and have your seat." He had a bright smile on his face, like someone who had just won a lottery.If Jason wasn't the only one in the office that moment, he would have probably thought there was someone else whom he was greeting. He stared at the Vice chancellor who was acting in an absurd manner.Jason looked around constantly, hoping to find someone he might have probably greeted, but after much doubt it became clear to him that, he was actually the one. He sat on the chair opposite the vice chancellor just as he was instructed, and fixed his gaze on him. "Is there any problem sir?" Jason asked, dying of curiosity as the vice chancellor wasn't saying anything yet. "No, not at all. We are just waiting for your father," He said adjusting his glasses, without looking up at Jason. "My father?" Jason questioned, but before the Vice chancellor could reply, the door creaked open revealing an elderly man probably in his early sixties, with other able bodied men surrounding him.Even if nobody told Jason, he could actually see the resemblance between him and the man, who was now sitting opposite him.His mother died when he was young, she had told him that his father was dead. Now someone appears and claims to be his father, he was speechless."Your mum never told you about me because I hurt her, I hurt her so much my son," The old man said with a very low voice, and all Jason did was stare as he took time to scrutinize the man."When she found out she was pregnant, she tried telling me by sending letters, since she didn't have a phone. My parents never gave me any of this letters because at that time, I was processing my documents to study abroad. When I eventually found out about her pregnancy through a friend that saw her, it was already late," He continued, clearly his throat constantly. One could assume that he was suffering from an illness due to the way he spoke."Ever since I came back, I have been looking for you both but all my efforts were fruitless. Not until the video of you circulated and I saw the mark on your neck. That's no ordinary mark, my boy. Your mum gave you that mark so that anytime I find you, I would believe you are my son." The man pointed on the black mark that had been on Jason's neck ever since he was a child. His mother always told him that it was a birth mark and his father also had one.
By now tears streamed down Jason cheek, he couldn't believe what he just heard. He didn't know if he should be angry or happy. His father moved closer to hug him tightly, which he couldn't resist even if he wanted to. Surprisingly the hug did wonders by calming him down a bit.
"You should come home with me son," His father said with a bright smile on his face, while the vice chancellor nodded his head in affirmation."I would follow you, but I want a DNA test to be conducted," Jason finally said a few minutes later and his dad agreed.
The rumor that Jason was the billionaire's son quickly circulated throughout the school like a wide fire. No one was aware of how they obtained the information, since it was intended to remain a secret until the DNA test was completed and the results were made public.However, because it had already spread, nothing could be done. Jason never returned to class; instead, he went to the hospital with his father after leaving the vice chancellor's office. Although, he promised to explain everything to Audrey when they met. He contacted Audrey, letting him know that, he wouldn't be returning for the time being. From the hospital, Jason went home with his father. On arriving at the gate, he stared at the exquisite mansion in astonishment, with his jaw dropped. He had never seen such a magnificent house, much alone lived in one. His father noticed and gave him a little smack at his back while laughing aloud. "This is the least of them, wait till you see my villa," The old man told him as
Jason was dumbfounded while looking at his father's corpse, he pondered on why life was so unfair to him. In a way, he felt it would have been better if life, had just left him the way he was before, until he met his father. Nevertheless, he was grateful he had someone he could call dad. The ambulance arrived, and the loud siren could be heard from every corner of the mansion. Shortly, the medical practitioners, hurried into the room with a stretcher. Jason watched them place his father on it and covered him with a white garment. Memories on the day his mother died, flooded his head and he suddenly cried out loud again, clinging to his legs firmly. The medical practitioners began to carry the corpse outside, accompanied by the Mr. George. Jason wrapped his arms around his body as he walked behind them.Jason was nearly blinded by the flashlight coming from various photographers, as they struggle to get closer to him. Mr. Dante stood beside him, protecting him from the vulnerabl
"You! Hurry up with the cleaning, this hall needs to be ready before 10am." Donald impatiently shouted at his staff, looking at his wrist watch. There is a press conference going on today in The Vons company, one of the largest companies in New York, that deals with international manufacturer, Fashion and beauty design, household materials and personal care with other profitable categories involved.As the CEO, he needed the world to see how well he handled the affairs in company. He was famous for his excellent business skills and lot of companies always wanted to work with him or invest hugely.He was looking forward to this press conference, it was an opportunity to get more international partners and consumers.Before 10am, various reporters from different media channels had arrived and were seated, drafting out their questions. The meeting started at exactly 10am. Donald was called to the podium to speak about the company, before they start asking questions. Donald adjusted hi
Jason heard Donald scream his name as he left the building; he must have seen the content inside the bag. Donald had given him a demotion letter; he was no longer the CEO, but now an ordinary manager. For Jenny, he returned back something which she asked him treasure, until they got married. According to her, it was going to make their love and relationship stronger and their marriage would last longer. It was Jenny's undies. She had given it to Jason, on the day he took her virginity, a few years back. Although, her superstitious act was apparently abnormal, Jason did it, and even foolishly treasured the undies. Guess her superstition has been proven to be false now.As Jason walked, he was lost in his thought. He didn't know if he was to be angry with Jenny or happy for her. But at this moment, he was clearly angry. She threw their years of love away, all because of money. The fact that she got married to a scumbag like Donald, who humiliated him, infuriated him more. "My reve
"Good morning, sir" Evelyn greeted Jason who was still looking at her with a confused expression on his face.He suddenly realized he had been acting stupidly and came back to his senses. Evelyn was the girl that spilled her wine on his suit at Jenny's wedding, he could not forget such a beautiful face within a short period.At first, he didn't want to believe that she was the one when he saw her legs, but on seeing her face and how she look so attractive on the body hug gown she was putting on, he had to admit it to himself."Who are you? Where is my secretary?" Jason questioned, feigning not to know her. He observed that she looked disappointed, but it was the least of his problem. Evelyn entered Jason's office, shutting the door behind her. "Stop there, where do you think you are going? " Jason asked her with a stern look on his face. Evelyn froze for a second and nearly fell because, she was taken aback. She was about to explain that she was his new secretary and didn't think
"Why do you choose to embarrass me?" Donald firmly fixed his eyes on Jenny as he walked closer to Jason's desk. He was here to deliver a file to him, only to find his wife kneeling before the man who humiliated him, begging for his forgiveness. He was enraged and couldn't control his anger. Quickly, he jerked Jenny up from the ground and roughly pushed her out of Jason's office without submitting the file anymore.Jenny thought that Jason would come to her rescue on seeing how Donald manhandled her. Surprisingly, Jason didn't even bother to look up at her, not to mention standing up from his seat. "Well deserved!" Jason whispered after they were out of his view.However, he couldn't deny that he felt bad with the way Donald treated Jenny, yet he did nothing and would do nothing even in the nearest future. She hurt him so much and he wanted her to regret every action she took; every words she said on the day she was proposed to.For a few hours, he found it difficult to concentrate
Jason looked up and saw Mr.Dante standing by the door which was left wide open. He saw Evelyn eyes widened; she reacted like someone who had just seen a ghost, he knew something was off about her.In fact, he had always suspected that something wasn't right about her from the very first day she supposedly barge into him."Uhm, you did sir. Him..yo...you told me your name."Evelyn stutter and appeared to be scared, but still try to maintain her composure."I did? All right, I was actually making a video for an upcoming project of mine while I was talking, I should play it and we will find out" Mr. Dante lied, bringing out his phone from his briefcase."Oh no! You didn't, It must been when we met in court, you are a lawyer right?" Realizing that she mentioned court, Evelyn bit the bottom of her lips so hard and endured the pain, she was angry at herself for being so stupid.Now, Mr.Dante stared at her, looking more confused than ever. It was obvious that she was lying and he blamed hi
In a classy living room with expensive furniture, Jenny is weeping profusely. Never in her widest dream did she think Donald, her husband, would hit her but he did.She looked at the bruises he caused on her arm, it was really a terrible sight no one should ever see, else she did be a laughing stock to the world."What was I thinking when I went to beg that unforgiving soul." She said to herself inaudibly as more tears rolled into her mouth.Donald didn't let her explain herself, he didn't give her the chance to talk. All he did was beat her for causing his misfortune and even going as far as begging Jason.At this point of her life all she thought about was a divorce, but she was scared. It was too early and people will definitely call her a gold digger. Truth is, now she realized that she got married to Donald because if his money not love. Maybe she shouldn't have been so selfish and remained faithful to Jason.The fact that Jason didn't make any attempt to stop Donald from treat
Through the help of the detective, they figured out that Dave had helped Donald in withdrawing the money from the Deceased account. Before killing him, Dave had forcefully instructed him to disclose his bank information in order not to get killed, but he ended up killing him. Raymond did a good job in also finding out the deceased friend and other people associated to him.Luckily, he was able to get in touch with the best friend who he had told everything that happened that night and how he witnessed Donald and a girl he couldn't identify trash the body into the river. Every investigation made led to Donald but he couldn't figure out his accomplice who had remained low key in this matter.While the Van was about to move, Raymond moved closer to Donald and asked, "Who is your accomplice? A witness attested to the fact that you had an accomplice in the murder of Jenny, who is she?" He asked with his eyebrows furrow and seriousness on his fave while waiting for an answer. A smile slo
"Shit, I couldn't even get her number!" Donald said adjusting his trousers while Dave laughed out loud. "It's not funny, you scared the poor thing." He said and laughed out."You can still find her as long as she works here, that shouldn't be a big deal." Dave said, stretching out his hand for a shake. "Thank you for the money once a again, know that I've got you always." "Na, I should thank you for a job well done." Donald said. "Let's drink""Sure!" "Any latest update?" Donald asked curiously, sipping his drink gently while looking at the stage, watching the strippers do their thing."For now, nothing but you just have to be careful I can see you are acting all free now." Dave said bringing out a lighter and a cigarette from his breast pocket as he watched Donald nodding his head continuously."Hmm okay, but I'm quite free now though." He said with a smile on his face."And yeah, I noticed a car was following me today, I tried as much as possible to get their information but fa
Donald walked into the club with different thoughts filling his head while he kept on living in imaginary world, thinking about how to enjoy his life and spend his newly acquired money. He couldn't believe he was now free to do whatever he wanted and the whole case of Jenny's murder would never be linked to him.He jolted back to reality after hearing the sound of a popped wine. A soft smile appeared on his face and he turned his head to look around. He noticed the club's interior is a symphony of decadence, with plush leather seating, glimmering chandeliers casting a soft glow over the room, and the air scented with exotic perfumes. Finally, Donald got to the already reserved VIP section and sat on the chair uprightly while nodding his head continuously, enjoying the irresistible music. From his view, he could see the dance floor pulsing with life and the music intoxicating and the rhythm.Two waitresses, who were half naked walked into the room, to serve him some wine and immediate
Jason left Evelyn in his apartment, assuring her that everything was fine and she shouldn't bother the detective. "You can remain here if you like, just rest. No need to go to work today, I will be back later." Jason told her rushing to the bathroom to have his bath.Evelyn didn't know how to feel at this point, if things keeps going on like this then getting pregnant for Jason at this point might be quite difficult. She layback on the bed, staring at the ceiling while listening to the soothing sound from the shower while Jason had his bath."What if things doesn't work out? I will have to spend my entire life in jail because other truths will definitely be revealed in process." She thought, biting the bottom of her lips absentmindedly until she felt a sharp pain and stopped. Lots of question flashed through her head but she got no answer, slowly, she dozed off even before Jason was done bathing.It was another bright morning and Donald was preparing to go to work for the first time
Jason titled his head backwards with his furrowed eyebrows. One could tell that he was in a confused state. In as much as he wanted to touch Evelyn badly and allow her satisfy him now she was offering herself, this wasn't the right time. Although, after everything that had happened, he was considering getting married to her since he had proposed and forget about his revenge, in order to avoid more death as he wouldn't stop blaming himself for Jenny's death. He tilt his head backward, avoiding to look into her eyes knowing she might feel bad because he was going to turn her down. "I can't do this now Evelyn, not now." He said softly, rubbing his fingers gently on her palm."But it's going to make you feel better." Evelyn said, placing soft kisses on his cheek while proceeding to his neck, knowing that Jason would not be able to hold on for too long and would eventually give in.Evelyn had gotten to the point where all she needed at the moment was to get pregnant for future purposes a
Jason had to accompany the police officers to their station where he was asked a few questions and he told them everything and his reasons for coming over there to see the man only to find him hurt.Raymond had to come to the station and bail him out after providing evidence that Jason had no hand in the murder of the stranger. Walking out of the station, Jason couldn't help but think about the whole case. Their were a lot of things he needed to figure out asides finding the killer. "Who could be behind all this?" He asked himself while opening the car door filled with frustration. All he needed now was to be alone for sometimes and think properly. He couldn't stop thinking about the whole issue for even a second and it hated how bothered. Deep down within his heart, he hoped for the man not to die. " I will do anything to protect him this time, He shouldn't die." He said to himself, using his right hand to hit the steering in anger. Jason was just driving into his compound and the
Just as the stranger had said, he sent a text to Jason which contained his account details and telling him that he was going to send the address where they could meet after Jason had sent the money.Filled with anxiety, Jason forwarded the account details to his manger immediately, instructing him to send $25,000 Million to the account. He had just entered the room and was removing his cloth when his phone suddenly began to ring out again and immediately he rushed to get the phone which was lying on his bed.Upon checking the caller, he was disappointed to find out that it was his manager and wished it was the stranger who had called earlier."You received my text, do as I say." Jason immediately said after answering the call, without giving room for his manager o say a word."I just wanted to confirm,""Do as I say right now or get fired." Jason screamed on top of his voice and immediately hung up the call, throwing his phone back on the bed roughly due to anger. "Fuck!" He screamed
A few hours passed without Donald, realizing that he had been sitting on the floor thinking of ways to escape paying Elvis the amount the demanded for and the only option he could think of was to kill him, that way his mouth remains shut forever. The knock on his door jolted him back to reality and he raise his head up and looked at the window and was in shock to find out that it was already getting dark.He heard the knock again which became louder this time and it got him angry. He wondered who the person could be, but he suddenly occurred to him that it might be Elvis and he became more furious than ever. Donald walked towards the door, boiling in anger which was completely written on his face."What do you want from me again!?" He yelled the moment he opened the door without waiting to see who it was."I beg your pardon, have I been here before?" Jason asked, looking so surprised as he turned his head backwards just yo be sure that, Donald wasn't yelling at him but someone else,
It was a hot bustling afternoon, the time where people were at their different work places, trying to meet end meet.Especially those who weren't entrepreneur or had a business of their own. Donald sat outside his house; at the verandah, continuously looking at the passerby like there was particularly person he was hoping to see.He poured himself a glass of whiskey, sipping it slowly which gave him peace ams he felt no remorse for killing Jenny. Though the murderer, he was the least person that cared about her death. The fact that no one saw him and Evelyn, dumping her body into the river, gave him utmost peace."Jason is going suffer for a crime he knows nothing about." He thought, smiling sheepishly as his mind he suddenly remembered what he need to make Jason seem like the culprit. After she died, he used her phone to text Jason, telling him about her pregnancy and begged him not to kill her. Then he also sent text messages to himself, making it seem like Jenny was begging him
