"Let's get this started," Bruno said, bringing her attention to him. "Please, have a seat.""Wasn't that Damien?" She asked, not sure of who she saw. She was sure she had seen someone like him walk in but the door was shut so quickly that she wasn't able to see the person properly. "You mean, Dr Damien?" He asked and nodded. "He is also here for some questioning. And that would be done after yours."Regina narrowed her eyebrows with a frown plastered on her face. "Why does he have to be here now? I hate to see that man," she muttered and went to sit down. "Let's get this over with. I've got somewhere I need to be at.""Alright," he said and scrolled down the questions he had prepared for her. He took a glance at her while scrolling and noticed how impatient she was, and not scared as he thought she would be. He went on to ask, "On the 18 of July, at 10 pm, where were you and what were you doing?""Didn't you make your investigations properly? I was sick and I was admitted to William

Damien gave her hand a light squeeze and averted his gaze back to the screen. "I am worried and my heart keeps breaking every time the truth comes out." She swallowed hard and looked at him. "What if Regina turns out to be the killer? What would I do then? I won't be able to forgive myself. I won't be able to survive it.""Bianca, let's not conclude yet. Let's allow the truth to prevail. If Regina turns out to be the killer, I know it would hurt but she would get the right punishment and that would make her realize the wrong path she followed," he faced her again. "You did your best as her sister. You shouldn't blame yourself for any reason. She chose this path alone."She stared at him for a couple of seconds before she averted her gaze back to the large screen and listened to their conversation. "Can I go now? I have proven I am not the killer," Regina said, pissed off about it. "Miss Regina, you avoided so many questions I asked. You only made me more interested in you concernin

Regina rolled her eyes in annoyance and answered, "How many times are you going to ask me the same question?" She took a step forward. "Did your boyfriend send you to do this? Is he trying to get me to talk or rather, confess to something I didn't do?""Regina, you went to meet Mike who Damien employed to investigate this case. You haven't met Mike for a long time now and you thought of doing it after he was paid by Damien. What do you have to say about that?""Wow sis, you and your boyfriend are out to get me," she answered and smirked. "Are you going to say you saw something with me too? Something that would implicate me?""Regina, the cops are unto you and if you keep being stubborn, it would be too late. No one will be able to help you. Just speak up and tell me the truth," Bianca pointed out. Regina kept quiet, with her gaze fixed on her sister as her words registered in her head. 'What if I tell Bianca the truth? Would she be able to help me?' she wondered. Could she trust her

Bruno glanced at Damien before he proceeded to open the bag. He brought out a bottle and when he saw the name of the content written on it, his eyes stretched open."What is it?" Damien asked with curiosity lacing his voice. "I guess she is not that smart after all. She left a big piece of evidence behind and now, this would be used to bring her down," he answered and gave it to Damien who immediately checked the name too. "Potassium Chloride," he muttered. "This is it," he looked at Bruno who was smiling proudly. "This was injected into Ethan.""You know the truth now. It's been revealed right in front of our eyes. The real culprit is none other than your ex-sister-in-law," Bruno answered. He let out a deep breath and pressed back against his seat. "That girl is a smart ass. How was she able to hide for this long? Unfortunately, her luck ran out.""This is⦠this is con-" His phone rang, distracting him. He picked it up and took the phone to his ear. "Sir, the footage has been re

"You better get me out of here. I have to leave here or I will tell Damien and everyone the truth," she threatened and leaned closer to the door. "You know what that means, right? Not only will you lose your precious Damien, but you will lose everything. NOW OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR!"Bianca wiped her tears and stepped away a bit. "No Regina, I am not going to listen to you. I don't care to know what truth you know," she answered and blinked away the tears gathered in her eyes. "The cops would be here soon. They will take you with them and you will get your deserved punishment.""No, please no, Bianca. You can't do this to me. The cops can't arrest me," she cried, banging the door hard. Bianca shook her head and raised her phone. She swallowed hard and quickly dialed Damien's number. "Bianca, are you alright?" He asked immediately he picked up the call. "Yes I am," she sniffed and looked at the locked door. "I got your message. But I have a question to ask." She took in a deep breath

Damien tried calling Bianca for the fifth time but she didn't pick up, confirming his fears. He averted his gaze to Bruno who was beside him. "Let's move fast. Something terrible must have happened to her," he informed, thinking about what Regina could have done to her. Even though they were sisters, he had a conviction she had done something to her. Bianca has done a lot of things to piss her off. He looked out the window, allowing his mind to wonder about it. They pulled over in front of the estate and he wasted no time in coming out and rushing in. Bianca was nowhere to be found and the door was opened. He needed no one to tell him Regina had found a way to escape and Bianca became her victim. "Bianca!" He called and rushed in. There were broken glasses, and a trail of blood in the living room, which led to the backdoor and it ended there. Damien's heart skipped a beat, realizing Bianca might have been injured. He ran upstairs calling out her name, but got no response. He s

Regina peeped out the servant door and rolled her eyes. Her plan had worked. "Idiots," she muttered laughing out loud. She had easily fooled them and they had no idea. She let out a deep breath and looked at her unconscious sister. "I know you wanted them to take me away, but darling sister, it's not going to be today. I can't get defeated while Damien Williams is walking about freely. If I am going down, he is going down and unfortunately," she cliched her tongue and laughed. "You will be the one to help me bring down your precious darling husband."She walked closer to Bianca and tied her hands well enough. The cops were far gone, leaving a clear space for her escape. As she did after she made Bianca unconscious, she took her hand and dragged her outside the room. She looked around again and when she was sure it was clear, she went on and left the living room. She dragged Bianca out to where her car was parked and put her in the car booth. "Sorry sis, but you deserve this. Becau

Damien fisted his hand and clenched his jaw as realization drawn on him. They were tricked and they easily fell for it. Bruno and the cops all ran to him and stopped. "Why are we stopping, Dr?" Bruno asked, searching around. He signal for his cops to go on. "There would be no need of going," Damien said, and Bruno drew his brows in confusion. "We need to catch them before they go far. The young servant said it, isn't that right?" He asked and turned back to look for her but she was no where to be found. "Where did she go?""We were tricked," Damien muttered, with rage coalescing into a ball in his inside. He tightened his fist and looked at Bruno. "How many men did you left behind?""What do you mean? We all ran out to capture her," he answered and Damien cursed under his breath. "They never came here," he revealed. "What do you mean?""I have been to this mountain before. It is the family's hunting ground, but it was sealed because of the wild boar moving around. There is no ro

Allen went back to the library and down to the basement. The door was still open a bit. He let out a deep breath and moved back, going closer to the door to avoid getting captured by the surveillance camera. He brought out two little explosives, which had been with him before he left for the meeting. He had slipped it into his pocket to use it when necessary. He activated it and threw it to the center of the basement. After waiting for a few seconds, it exploded and the building shook. The basement became smokey, blinding the cameras. An easy way to successfully rescue Josh and leave, he thought. He ran into the opened door and just as he had suspected, Josh was chained to a chair in the middle of the room with his mouth covered. "This damn people," he muttered and ran to him. He pulled the tape out of his mouth and Josh breathed out deeply. "You shouldn't be here. This is all a trap. Get out!" He said with his voice laced with panic. "I promise to always protect you and i

The second guard was standing before them, staring at them in horror. He was going to call his partner as he was taking too long and their bosses would soon be out, but he found him unconscious with the woman and a familiar man beside him. "Hey! Who are you two?! What have you done!" He said out, bringing their attention to him. He quickly brought out his gun but before he could point it at them, Mary threw the rod to him and it hit the gun away. Before he could recover, she ran and punched him hard on his face and the next to his chest, rendering him weak. He fell on his knees groaning in pain. "You should never have trusted me," she muttered and wrapped her arm tightly around his neck, to make him unconscious, while Allen went on to undress the other officer. The second guard finally went to sleep and she let him go. "Now, we have our perfect disguises," she said with a smile and made to undress him but Allen held back her hand. She looked at him with her brows drawn to

They both left the car and ran towards the state library. Just when they got closer, Mary suddenly held his hand and dragged him to the alley. "What are you doing? This is our chance to go in," he pointed out, not pleased with her sudden action. "I know we are two and I promised to fight with you, but are you a fool?" She questioned, which made him arch his brows. She never misses a moment to insult him. She went on, "If we go into that library as Allen Scott and Mary Jane, the project Erubus would be informed before we get to them and they will have all the time to escape and plan an attack. We don't even know where exactly they are in the building." Allen signed deeply, knowing she was right. He was going to make a bad decision but lucky enough, she was there to stop him. "So what's your plan? Are we going to disguise to go in?" She nodded. "We have to disguise. That way, we can enter as normal people and figure out what to do and where to go." "Won't it take a lot of time

"Mary?" He called, in shock. "C'mon. We don't have all day. My system is about to shut down!" She yelled out, getting ready to run. Allen nodded and hurried down the stairs. He put his glasses into his pocket and together, they ran into the woods, going as fast as they could. "We need to find a place to hide before the explosion," she pointed out, breathing heavily. "Come with me," he answered and took the next turn. He noticed a pit a few distance away from them and pointed it direction. "There!" They both jumped into the pit and a loud explosion followed next, shaking the ground and bringing everything on its path down. After the explosion, silence followed next with their heavy breathing loud to their ears. Mary Jane sat down and placed her hand on her chest, trying to calm her racing heart. "That was close," she muttered. Allen nodded and sat beside her, trying to steady his breath. She looked at him and asked, "How did you know there was a pit here?" "I took noti

Allen quickly made it for the door but found it locked. He tried opening it but to no avail. "Are there any escape doors close by?" He questioned, as he felt panic slowly seeping into him. "The left, the right, the the" Ultimate began to glitch until it went off. "Ultimate?" Allen called but the system was gone. "What the heck is going on?" He questioned and looked around for another door. He found an escape door but when he tried opening it, it was locked. "Dang it!" He cursed inwardly and went on to search for another door in desperation. If it was a bomb, the time would be ticking and he knew he had a few minutes to escape or that would be the end. He still had a lot to do. He promised Stephanie that he would be back. He still had to bring down the project Erubus and ruin his father. "I can't die today," he muttered, thinking about everything he had to do. He found a few more doors but they were all locked and the few that weren't, they led to a different room. It wa

"I knew something was off," Allen mumbled, bending low to avoid getting hit by the flying bullets. The driver immediately took a turn, while the security officers in the other car rushed out and started firing at the shooters. "Josh is in danger!" Allen muttered, realizing they had used Josh's phone and knew about the address for their meeting. "Stop the car!" He ordered, taking the driver aback. The driver didn't stop the car at first, thinking he had heard wrongly until Allen repeated himself this time, with fury. He quickly pulled over and Allen stepped out holding a gun. His security officers were so busy with the attackers, that they didn't notice when he stepped out of the car and ran into the woods, trying to use the backdoor. He took cover behind a tree and quickly wore his glasses, activating Ultimate. "You have two options for this mission: You either leave right now and call the cops to do their job or you will get an ultimate weapon, but you must kill all the enem

The case had been reopened, and the truth was finally coming to light. Bruno, with the evidence Eleanor had gathered, had managed to piece together a picture that no one else could see. It wasn’t just about Andrew’s death anymore. It was about the lies, the manipulation, and the sinister figure who had remained hidden in the shadows for far too long—Andrew’s father. With the new evidence at hand, Bruno had relentlessly pursued the man responsible. It hadn’t been easy, and it certainly hadn’t been quick, but in the end, it was worth it.George, the terrified man who had finally given up the truth, had provided the key to everything. The recording Eleanor had made of George speaking about Andrew’s father’s involvement in Andrew’s murder had been the smoking gun. It was the piece of the puzzle that tied everything together. Bruno had used that, along with the records from Texas, to take action.Andrew’s father, once a figure of untouchable power, had been brought down. His involvement in

It had been over a month since Eric’s murderer had been brought to justice. The case had concluded, and the aftermath had settled into a sort of peace that everyone was trying to hold onto. Life had moved on for most of them. Bianca and Damian were thriving, preparing for the arrival of their first child. Charlotte had moved out of state with Jason after he proposed, and the city seemed to breathe a collective sigh of relief. The storm that had plagued them for so long had passed. Or so it seemed.But for Eleanor, there had been no relief. No peace. Her mind had remained tangled with unfinished business, things she hadn’t shared with anyone. Especially Damian. She had left him in the dark, not out of malice but because she had to. He could never know the truth about her, about her involvement in the darker parts of the mystery they had all just escaped from. She had to keep her distance. He couldn’t know what she had done, not if her plans were going to succeed. If Damian, or anyone,

Detective Bruno leaned back in his chair, his eyes scanning through the files spread out before him. The case of Andrew's death had been an enigma from the start. At first glance, it seemed straightforward—a suicide. But after days of investigation, there was something that didn’t add up. The more Bruno looked into it, the more questions arose.His fingers brushed over the autopsy report again, and it was clear—Andrew hadn't died by his hand. The cause of death was poisoning. He had been slowly killed before being hung in what was made to look like a suicide. It was a well-planned murder, and as Bruno flipped through the documents, he couldn't shake the feeling that someone had gone to great lengths to cover their tracks.But who?Bruno had been reinstated back to the case after the previous detective working on it had missed several crucial pieces of evidence. The detective, for reasons unknown, had been convinced that Andrew was responsible for his death. He had been so sure of it t
