Daniel waited patiently as he watched the rescuers try to get rid of all the rubble that was on top of the basement. With much of it removed, he could hear both Rachel and Craig talking. The clock was two in the morning, but he wanted to wait for the rescue to end and see to it that they were not attacked again.Gabriel arrived, still unable to get hold of his sniper. He had a gun in his car, but there were too many police officers and reporters for him to be the one to pull the trigger. But for safety reasons, he tucked it behind his jacket.He got out of the car while dialing the sniper's line again but could not get through.He kicked his car out of irritation. Taking Daniel out of plain sight was his last choice, but it was very risky.He looked around, trying to spot Daniel, but could not find him outside. He walked to where the perimeter was set, but an officer approached him and told him to leave."Sir, we can't allow you to pass this line," the officer said."Get out of my wa

"Daniel, are you okay?" Max asked after the long pause from Daniel.Daniel smiled, "Of course, let's go," he replied and got into the car.Rexa had just finished up with the search of the phone and apart from Rachel's invitation, there was nothing suspicious in his phone.Daniel ordered her to follow the ambulances that took both Craig and Rachel and ordered her to cause a fault to any ambulance that took the wrong route away from the hospital.Max cleared his throat as he got into the car and ordered the driver to start off."I overheard the rescuers saying you are the one that pinpointed where Craig and his mother were trapped," Max started up a conversation."Yes, Rachel texted me," Daniel lied."Thee Rachel Nash texted you?" Max asked surprised. "You mean the woman that hated your presence?" He asked.Daniel smiled. "Once you get money, everyone tends to like you," Daniel joked.Max laughed out"So is your wife back too?" Daniel asked. "Sorry I never got a chance to meet her," Dan

While Daniel was on the phone, the doctor walked out and nodded at Max."You can now see the patients?" The doctor said."Are they okay? Which room is the mother?" Max asked."The first room," the doctor replied.Max thanked the doctor and looked behind him. He could clearly see that Daniel was having a heated conversation with whoever was at the end of the line.He quickly walked into Rachel's room and closed the door behind him.Rachel looked up thinking it was Daniel, but to her disappointment, it was Max."Hello, Rachel?" He wavedRachel quickly sat up straight, not wanting to show any fear or that she suspected that he was somehow related to the partner."How is my son? Which room is he in?" She asked a question that any mother would ask."He is in the next room; I am yet to see him," Max replied.Rachel stared at him; the more he spoke, the more convinced she was about her suspicions."Ain't you supposed to check on your friend first?" She asked.Max smiled and took a seat, "Did

Thanks to the tough walls of the basement, they both did not have any major injuries.Daniel offered one of his apartments, but Rachel refused his offer. Even the investigators wanted to put her and Craig in protective custody, but she refused. She was not going to go into hiding while her daughter was supposedly with the enemy.What she was interested in was her daughter. She had been nothing but patient and was eager to know who was babysitting Cathy.The person who Max claimed to be his half-brother. She was tempted to ask Daniel who it was, but that was only going to raise suspicion and put Daniel in more Danger.Max warned her they were watching, and if she slipped, Daniel would find out. She was aware of who would be the first to kick the bucket.She was still in disbelief but had no time to use emotions. What bothered her more was the fact that Max had no grandparents. She did some digging around, she re

After a long discussion with Rexa, Daniel concluded it was a set-up and continued on his way to meet up with Elijah. But he sent all the evidence to the investigators and asked them to keep him updated.He then drove to Elijah, making sure he was not followed. By the time he arrived, it was late in the night.He found Elijah waiting for him outside."For a second, I thought you were not going to come, especially with the bomb," Elijah stated as soon as Daniel walked out of the car. "You were right, I should not have given Shelly a second chance. She was behind the bombing," Daniel stated."Ooh," Elijah said, with an, "I told you so" look on his face. "Should I go after her?" He asked."No, the law will deal with her," Daniel replied. "But I will need you to go and get George for me. I miss him," he ordered and walked into the room where Gabriel was tied to a chair.As soon as Gabriel saw him, he began shaking the chair. His mouth was taped, making it difficult for him to talk."Gaby,

Michael quickly dropped the gun and dropped to his knees. He had no idea why, but pulling the trigger felt very satisfying. He felt like he had been relieved of a load that he had been carrying for years.He made sure the bullet went through her head to avoid any chance of her waking up. He stared at her lifeless body as blood kept pouring out of her head with her eyes wide open.The police officers pushed him to the ground as they read out his rights and cuffed him.One of them checked Shelly's pulse and nodded his head. She was dead, and all they could do was charge Michael with murder and begin processing the place as a crime scene.Michael was taken to the car and transported back to prison. He had no regrets; he felt he did the right thing. And instead of requesting a lawyer, he kept requesting for Daniel. There was one last wish that he wanted to be granted.Morning came, and news of the shooting incident was all over the news. Daniel scrolled through his phone as he walked to h

Carol slowly leaned back in her bed; she was very tired, and the little energy she had was used to make Daniel stop draining the life out of Zain. Cathy, who was the nearest to her bed, moved a little backward, unsure of how to react. She was so scared and could hear her own heart beating. The man she loved with all her heart just lifted his best friend with one hand.Daniel dropped Zain to the ground and ran to his aunt's bed. Five years passed and all his energy to ever wake her up was wasted on his friends and enemies, and there was a time he had nearly given up on the hopes of ever seeing or hearing her voice."Aunty?" He whispered with difficulty. He was in disbelief and thought he was dreaming.Rexa was busy analyzing her, trying to understand what was going on. She was supposed to be aware of her progress but she was as surprised as everyone in the roomAunty Carol smiled and held out her hand, which Daniel quickly grabbed, crying. She could not believe her eyes too. Daniel lo

Daniel quickly ran to the other room, "We have to move, sorry aunt, but we are in danger!" He yelled."What do you mean?" Cathy asked."They know; they know you are here; that stupid Zain led them here!" He yelled, pissed. He shouldn't have trusted the stupid prick, who obviously deliberately led the enemies to the apartment."Calm down, who are you talking about?" Carol asked."The partner, the man who has been hiding in the shadows and after the Relic," he explained. "You remember the relic?" Carol nodded, even though she could not remember most of her life, but the relic was one thing that could not be erased while she slept in a coma for five years "What is the relic? What's going on?" Cathy asked."I will explain…" Daniel tried to speak, but she interrupted him."How long has Zain been in here? Why have they not come to us when it would have been easier for them to get us while you were away?" She asked.Daniel was quiet, she was making sense."Cathy is right, did you fully ac
