Chapter 32Jay POV You need to see how excited Mom is about the apartment,she even forgot about the crime scene she witnessed. She went round the neighborhood bragging about how her son got an apartment. She even went as far as inviting them for Home warming. She was also the one that went shopping for the items we needed before we could finally move in. There is still no progress with the case,the result from the forensic is still not out. Ariel avoided me like plight,I was busy and wasn't able to talk to since the night she confessed. Betty was preparing for her training too,she's going in two days and she was all over the place.she can't wait and I can tell how impatient she is. "The result is out and just as Jay said,they died by drowning but that isn't what we should be worried about. The thing is their identities. The forensic team isn't able to find their identities even after using their fingerprints" Ariel broke the news as we gathered for fur
Chapter 33Jay POV"Hey" I yelled but he wasn't stopping,I was getting tired. We've been running for about 15 minutes now. He ran into a crowded fish shop.I ran after him,I pant and stopped to look around.I seems to have lost himI don't even know what he looks like,he was in black coat and a nose mask.It's really suspicious,black coats in summer are hot just wearing a light shirt, not to mention coats. I bent down and looked around again."Shit I lost him" I cursed and hissed.I came out of the shop and started panting.I felt tired and weak.Gosh I need to train this body As a gangster I ran and fought a lot but this body is kinda weak. I need to start exercising and might consider starting taekwondo too.I limped back to the scene"What's wrong?""I lost him""You look tired""Yes I am"Claire passed me a bottle of water in which I gulped down and sigh."Rest a bit and we can leave" I nodded and sat in the car we came with.After a while Claire came to join me in the car.
Chapter 34Jay POV The courtesan house wasn't what I expected.it looks like a hotel and it even has a big club in it. There are prostitutes here and there.Most of them are foreigners but there are few Americans."Gosh this place is so….yik" Claire covered her nose because of the strong smell of Alcohol."Thank God we didn't park the car in front of here,it would have alerted them" I looked around trying to figure out how I will get the job done easier."What did you mean? Are you arresting them? But that isn't what we are here for" Claire was staring at me, eyes widened."Can't you see,these girls are forced into this. I don't know how but they are forced and it obvious""I don't think that should be our concern though, I mean we are here for something else" she was trying to dismiss my idea."Since we are here,we've got to do the needful.""But Jay it….""Hey gentleman, how about I serve you?" A girl whom I can tell she's not more than 18 came to me.She was in a mini skirt,and cr
Chapter 35Jay POV"Madam F" Coral yelled and giggled,she was talking to no one in particular."Are you sure it is a good idea we followed her ? She is drunk and I don't think…..""Gosh Coral you got drunk again" Before Claire could complete her words a low sophisticated voice interrupted.I looked in the direction of the voice, and a small door leading to the rooftop opened.Coral was right Madam F was at the top."She was right, I thought she was just screwing garbage" Claire gasps when she sees the door."Come along" Coral chuckled and went through the door.Claire and I followed her.Hot breeze hit my face as I passed through the door.We came on the rooftop and from there you can see what was happening around the building. It is a perfect spot to know all about what was going on around here."Who are they?" The same voice we heard before asked.It was then I noticed the desk and chair placed on the rooftop. Two bodyguards surrounded the woman sitting by the desk.She must be Mada
Chapter 36Jay POV "Maya had this sex appeal,she's beautiful but not the most beautiful one here but she managed to get any man she wanted,she just got it in her. She made me a lot of cash and she somehow caught the attention of the senator""Which Senator?" Claire asked "The same senator you know. Senator Andrew scoots.he's a VVIP here. He wants her but she's not willing. I tried to make her serve him but Maya refused. I decided to use some method but Maya managed to escape. She came to me that night and lashed out. We had an argument and she left with her sister that was when I saw her last" "You mean you don't know she was dead?" "I don't,I was surprised when I saw that picture" she replied, trying to make it sound believable."Ok ,do you have any idea who might want her dead?""Noo I had no idea" I saw how she tried to avoid my gaze when she said that. "Of course you do""What are you….?""Why are you avoiding my gaze,looking at me and telling me you have no idea w
Changed 37Jay POV "So you are saying when you went on that mission you came in contact with the Caribbeans and they are involved in this case too?" "Yes" I replied quietly "Why don't you tell me?" Ariel flared up. "I don't want to bother you because….."She raised her brow daring me to continue but I kept my mouth shut. "And you,I don't know you are so stupid,if it weren't for you,you wouldn't have gotten involved with any Caribbeans. Don't you understand what a secret mission is?" She glared at Drake while he sat rooted in his chair. "About the sugar? Who and who knows about it?" "Nobody expects you guys," Ariel nodded."We have to find the Caribbeans or whatever they are called.and that sugar find it and bring it to me" Ariel ordered and left banging the door behind her. "I'm sorry Jay" Drake apologized."It ok,we've got a lot to do,Claire can you interrogate those girls" "Yes I can""Then I will leave that to you.I have to go home now" I move towards th
Chapter 38Unknown POV "He might have caught on,I heard he's very smart" He said, pouring my drink. "You think he will get to us?""I'm afraid yes,I heard he solved some cases" He added and I frowned."He's going to be an headache, I wanted to frighten him before but not anymore kill him" I ordered "But if….""Just kill him" I yelled and he shivered in fearI smirked,he's quite easy to direct. ***************Jay POVAriel was blushing and her cheek was red and rosy.She has been avoiding my gaze since we left the hospital. "Hey" I called and she giggled"What?" She turned to me"Eyes on the road" I reminded her,she turned back to the road. "You are beautiful" she chuckled and used one hand to drive while she used the other hand to hit me on my lap. "Stop it" "I don't want to" I peeked at her cheek."Jay,we might get into an accident" she half yelled in fear. I laughed and threw my head back."Naughty Jay" she muttered under her breath but I heard "Y
Chapter 39 Jay POV.I was served hot tea but I was in the mood to drink tea so I just kept it aside.I am now sitting face to face with the Senator of American,Senator Andrews. Maybe because he is rich,he didn't look fifty at all,he looked like someone in his thirties and every sip of tea he took screamed elegant. His presence is power and I can feel it. Since I became officer Jay I have never been so nervous in front of someone "You said something about Maya dying?" "Yes she's dead, not only her,but her sister too was killed.here" I passed him the picture and he frowned while looking at it. "That was tragic,and to think I was finding her it a pity she's gone" he muttered more to himself but I can still hear him. "You don't know she's dead?" I asked and he raised his brow in confusion"How am I supposed to know?" He sounded believable and didn't seem to be faking it. "To be sincere, I came here because I thought you were the culprit." He stared at me like I had
Chapter 50Jay POV "I think we might have got them this time," Ariel said, glancing at me but she quickly shifted her gaze to the road ahead of her. I frowned and can't help but feel bad about this"Are you sure?""Don't worry,my agent can't be mistaken"Ariel assured me,turns out she hired a private detective to investigate the Caribbeans.Now he called Ariel to tell her he found them and sent address to her but I was doubting it if it that easy I should have found the Caribbeans. I don't think they can found unless they want to be found but Ariel wasn't hearing any of this she believed her agent so I just decided to shut up until we get there. At least I won't be worried about Ariel since I came with her. "You aren't saying anything" Ariel pulled me out of my thought. "Let's just go and check" Ariel nodded and focused on the road,she stepped on the gas and speed up,she must be eager to know who and what the Carribeans are. We got to an abandoned factory"Is it here?"
Chapter 49Jay POV "Were you trying to solve the case all by yourself?" I asked Ariel and she nodded."I can't risk losing you again,it's too dangerous," she replied."But it is not dangerous for you?" I can't help but be bluffed. She doesn't reply and really cares about herself, always worrying about me. "It less dangerous for me""What made you say that?""Because,you know nobody will have the heart to kill this pretty lady" she blinked her eyes and pouted.I can't help but laugh. She's just soo…. "Come on Ariel I can help just….""Nope I can't risk it" she disagreed "But what about you? What if something happens to you?""Nothing will happen to me moreover I'm investigating in secret""Exactly I will also help in secret"Ariel stared at me and sigh "You can't…..""Yes I can" I interrupt before she could refuse"I can't say no can I?""No you can't" "Ok,but in secret none of the teammate should know""Be rest assured, this is between you and I" she nodded and pa
Chapter 48Jay POV 'Maybe I saw wrong,she can't be sneering or did she have a habit of sneering?' I shaked my head to clear the thought of Patricia. I just can't seem to forget the sneer she gave me.I can't shake off the feeling.I felt it meant something. 'Gosh Jay you are thinking too much' I groaned and dragged myself to the station. "You are back? Any clue?" Betty jumped in front of me as soon as I got in."I got nothing,but I need you to help me""What is it?""I need to check someone for me""Who?""Her name is Patricia, I don't get her surname""What about her pictures?""Nothing, I have nothing about her""That will be hard but it not impossible""Then let's get to work" I urged her and we both got to my desk and started working. "Here,check this out" I stared at the screen,and shake my head no"Not her,check again""There are so many Patricia's in America , you know," Betty complained, pouting. "I know but please check thoroughly""Ok" She muttered
Chapter 47 Jay POV"Here,this is her" Felix passed me a fileName: Cordelia SwiftAge: 28Address : 03 Aviles streetsWeight :53kgHeight: 162.36cmOccupation everything necessary was includedI scanned through the document and handed it back to Felix."Thanks man,I appreciate""Please make sure to find the culprit" Felix pleaded"I thought you don't like your uncle" "I don't like him but at least thanks to him,I'm not starving moreover I don't want my uncle to be murdered that way and the culprit go scot free""Ok I promise to find whoever it is""Thanks officer Jay""Noo I should be thanking you"we came out of the CEO's office,that was the office of the late Mr. "Who will become the next CEO?" I asked and Felix grinned."I of course,I'm his only relative so what were you expecting""Goodluck, I will let you know if I need your help again""Ok,byeeee make sure to keep your promise" Felix escorted me to where to get taxiWe bid goodbye and I left in a taxi. I got home
Chapter 46Jay POV"What did you think.you were doing? He's clearly the murder"Derek yelled but I ignored him. "You can't always be right,know this and….." Derek's voice faded off as I was deep in thought. 'If it is not Felix then it is who?I should interrogate all his employees and more importantly Felix himself,he should know something,I was thinking because the culprit was in haste he won't be able to cover his tracks but he did. He must be a professional but there must be a detail or loophole he wasn't able to erase if…..'"Jay!" I was jolt awake from my thoughts"Are you even listening to me"Derek shouted and I frownedWhat is wrong with him, he has been behaving out of character since I woke up from coma. I saw Felix opposite the building in front of the station,he was on the phone. I realized him.we can't keep him here anyways. Since I need to talk to him,I stood up "Where did you think you are going?" Derek tried to stop me. "Seems like I have been too easy on
Chapter 45Jay POV "Did you find anything?""Nope we still have to wait for the result"Drake spoke from the other end of the phone. "Ok,I see" I hung up"Did they get it?""Nope""But are you sure the culprit left his or her print?""I'm sure" I replied while grinningClaire sighed"Whatever you say,if it doesn't work then we use another method""But why do I have a feeling it will work?" Betty said, staring at me and Claire."Let's wait and see" Claire rolled her eyesBut I'm sure from my analysis there's no way the culprit cleaned his prints on the money.Everything was done in a haste so there's no way he won't have left his prints behind. I might just wait for the result because I have no idea who it might be "Jay,heard you got something" Ariel came into the invigilating room."Yes I did but let's wait for the result" "That was quite fast,I feel like sending you home but I can't you are just so useful" "I know right" I winked at her and she blushed"Hmmm" Claire clear
Chapter 44Jay POV "Have been in this team for about 2 months now after my training, Team leader herself took me in since I have no one." Betty continued blabbering but I wasn't listening. I was shocked and surprised Ariel took her in,I remembered she didn't like Betty much. "Jay,are you listening to me?" Betty bent her head to my eye level"Yes I can hear you,so how do you feel as a cop?""It's amazing,we cracked two cases after I came here and believe me it was thrilling.it felt good,no wonder detectives love their job,I also love this job" Betty grinned as she explained. "I was worried about you for no reason. It's good you love this job,well I have to know more about that so if you would excuse me" I pointed to the case file and Betty nodded in understanding.She went back to her desk while I continued with the file. "Claire, can I go to the scene? I need to see the cash""I'm afraid no,the team leader ordered not to allow you to go near the scene" Clair was typing on
Chapter 43Jay POV I'm finally going home today. Have been in the hospital for more than 6 months and I can go home now. "Jay love pass me the flask"Mom was packing some of the things she brought to the hospital. I passed the flask to her and she put it in her bag."Done,let's go"She turned and walked to the door while I went after her. It took time and exercise to walk again We went to the receptionist for final discharge and I was free to go. Mom called for a taxi and we both got in and left for home. "What do you think?"Mom stood in front of me smiling awkwardly while I looked around"It's perfect" I complimented and she giggled.She was showing how she decorated the house. I must say she put in a lot of work "Did you have your housewarming party?" "Housewarming ? When my son is at the hospital? What sort of mother does that?" She shook her hand and opened the door of my room. I peeped in and it looked clean and tidy."You cleaned my room?""Yes I
Chapter 42Jay POV"I'm sorry Jay, I have to go,I will be back" Ariel pecked me on the cheek and left in haste.I was alone again,I sighed and stared at the ceiling.I don't know how long I will be like this.it tiring and lonely. Why did I wake up when it won't make any difference? "Jay love,how was your night?" Mom whom I don't even know when she came in said. I turned my gaze to her and she looked better than yesterday. She looked less hagard and the circles under her eyes was disappearing. My accident must have bothered her a lot. "I made your favorite but I was told you have already eaten. Your team brought food for you,you know I wanted to ask,is she just your team leader or she's more than that? When you first got into an accident she rushed to the hospital crying, she cried for two days straight and refused to eat" Mom paused and placed the flask she brought with her on the table. "I was surprise, even I your mother looked more relaxed than her.she was
