Chapter thirty-one: Roy. Roy turned and looked at her and he saw the followers and he asked: “Are those flowers from Dad?”. Roy gave his mother a serious look expecting her answer. “Look, umm... What about we talk about this tomorrow?” Pearl said. She kept the followers on the couch and moved close to Roy, her son. “Mom! I asked a question, are those followed by Dad?” Roy asked with a serious look on his face. Pearl now realizes that her son, Roy, is not joking. Pearl gasped and she looked down and said “It is… it is not from your father,”. She couldn't look at her when replying to his question. Roy was broken, he breathed out and said nothing. He wiped the sweat off his face and Pearl could see how disappointed he was at her. “Look, Roy, I can explain, it is going to be fine, trust me,” Pearl said. She moved close to Roy, her son, and she touched his thigh, thinking that would calm him down. But Roy removed her hand and he stood up and said “Everything is going to be fine with

Mike looked at his son, Roy, after hearing the statement and he then turned to Pearl and asked “Is it true? Is Roy lying about what he said?”. Mike was broken. Pearl gave both of them (Roy and Mike) a quizzical look and said “Fine! It's true okay? Can I go now?”. Pearl moved close to the door. “Just a minute, but Pearl it hasn't reached a month, you now have someone else?” Mike said. Mike looked at her with disappointment. “Look, I am running late okay? I don't want to be late and yes, it is what it is, so deal with it,” Pearl replied, she grabbed the door handle. Mike gasped and said, “That dress, I purchased it for you,”. Mike now buried his head. “I don't think you want it back or do you?” Pearl replied rudely, while Roy sat down watching. “No I don'
Chapter thirty -three: the identity Manson picked up one of the papers and to his surprise, he saw the perfect sketch of Mike. Manson was shocked and Officer Joe noticed it. “Is everything okay, sir,?” Officer Joe asked as he picked up the paper and observed Manson’s facial reaction of surprise. “No, I am okay, it is just that this sketch is beautiful,” Manson said. Manson held the sketch in his hand and gave a false reason why he reacted in such a manner. “Really? I appreciate your compliment, I really do, thank you very much,” Officer Joe said. He packed up the papers and placed them in the briefcase and he forgot the main facial sketch in Manson’s hand. Manson noticed it and he quickly put the sketch drawing in his back pocket and he asked “But wait, are you can artists? Because I would like to get some painting from you,”. Manson was still surprised and wanted to clarify his suspicion. “Oh! No, I am not an artist, I am a policeman by the way, that was my sketch of the suspec
Chapter thirty-four: The Birthday Plan. Mike smiled and said, “Manson, we have a new partner,”. Mike was still looking at the paper and he stared at Manson, who was still under pressure, with a smile on his face. “What?! Are you kidding me? He is a police officer for Christ's sake! And police officers don’t condole our (he pointed at Mike and himself) businesses, do you understand?” Manson asked, he was still sweating, showing that he was still under pressure. “Yeah, you are right. Police officers do not condone our businesses. But you didn't ask the right questions,” Mike said. Mike walked towards the waste bin he tore the paper that had a sketch of him and threw it into the bin. “Wait, are you trying to be funny, or do you just want to play with my mind?” Manson asked. Manson turned on the air conditioner because of the way he was sweating. “No, I am not playing with your mind, I am just saying…. All I am is That you didn't ask the right question, at the right time, that is all
Chapter thirty-five: A LETTER FROM MOM Miss. Jane looked around it and she found an inscription that said “A LETTER FROM MOM”. Jane was surprised. “Okay, I will look at it, you can go now,” Miss. Jane said. She sent the butter away while admiring the letter. Something came to Jane's mind and she called the butler who was moving away saying “Excuse me! Excuse me!! Sir!”. The butler stopped and turned to her and he asked “Is there anything you would like for me to get you, Miss?”. “No, I don't want anything for now, Maybe later but I want to ask, do you see who dropped this letter?” miss. Jane asked. She waved the letter to show the butler what letter she was talking about. Miss. Jane doesn't see her mother that much, maybe once or twice a year but this year, she hasn't seen her. “No, I didn't, it was the courier that dropped off the letter, is there a problem? Or should I call and tell them it is the wrong address?” the butler asked. He noticed the way Jane was surprised and anxio
Chapter thirty-six: Red light.“The plan is a go,” Mike said with a smile on his face as usual. Manson looked at him. Manson finished washing his hands and he stood upright and asked “Are you sure?”. He wanted to be sure of the plan, to avoid failure. “Yeah, it is my plan, never fails,” Mike said. Mike found a seat and he sat down. “Okay, if you say so. But what is the main plan?” Manson asked. Manson took a hand towel that was on his wristwatch show glass and he used it to clean his wet hands. “It's very simple, we attend and gather evidence against billionaire Andrew and add it to the evidence we have against police commissioner Reynold and we kill two birds with one stone and that's it,” Mike said. He gave Manson a brief rundown of how the plan was going to go. “Okay, I get but when are we starting?” Manson asked. Manson brought a chair and he sat down close to Mike but he didn't get the plan. “On D-Day,” Mike said with his usual smile on his face. Meanwhile, back at the pol
Chapter thirty-seven: the discussion. “Good day Sir, we need to talk,” police commissioner Reynold said. He requested to have a physical discussion with billionaire Andrew. “I hope all is well?” Billionaire Andrew asked over the phone. He was surprised by the police commissioner Reynold's urgent request to see him. “Sir, I don't know if I will say, yes, it is well or no it's not well because the situation is confusing,” police commissioner Reynold said. He expresses his concern over the situation. “Okay, I see, it is about Officer Joe, isn't it?” billionaire Andrew asked. He quickly deduced what was the problem, although it wasn't the entire problem, he deduced a major part of the problem. “Yes, but how…. How? Did you know that was the reason I called you?” police commissioner Reynold asked. He was surprised by the detective skills of billionaire Andrew. Police Commissioner Reynold opened the door of his office to check if anybody was eavesdropping but he saw no one. Billionair
Chapter: the findings. Officer Joe noticed something suspicious, so he decided to take a picture of Rose Royce's plate number as it drove off. After taking the picture, reviewed it, making sure it was okay. Police Commissioner Reynold didn't know he was being followed and was not aware that Officer Joe had taken a picture of the car and plate number. Officer Joe was still in his hidden spot, he made sure that the car was far away from the station before he could leave. The car vanished on the horizon, and Officer Joe came out of his hidden place. “What are you doing there?!” Officer Ruby asked with a loud voice and she scared the life out of Officer Joe because he didn't expect it or anyone to see. Officer Joe was scared and turned back immediately to see who asked him the question. “Nothing really, I am just checking something,” Officer Joe said. He moved away from his hidden spot, showing her that he was done checking what he was checking. “Really? You want me to buy that?” O
