Jason was driving back home after going to inspect the Plantation and the boutique, he was looking forward to getting home as he navigated the winding road. He glanced in the rearview mirror and noticed a black van that seemed to be following himAt first, he dismissed it as a coincidence, but as the miles ticked by the car remained steady fastly on his tail. Jason felt a sense of unease crept over him. Jason decided to confirm his suspicions, he took a series of random turns, but the van followed his every move. It was now clear to Jason that he was being followed. He pulled into a garage, hoping the public settling would deter any potential threats.He stared through his side mirror, he noticed the van was still parked outside the garage. Jason looked around the premises, where he found several people moving around.He stepped out of his car and casually pretended to inspect his tyres while keeping his eyes on the van. The van pulled up a short distance away, and three men stepped
Jason was faster than him, he dodged the man’s attack with ease while delivering a series of powerful strikes at him, a punch to the gut and an uppercut to his chin. And a spinning kick that sent the man crashing against the pavement unconscious.“Woohoo,” the workers were enjoying the scene which looks like a movie series.The leader was finding the scene irritating and frustrated, he grabbed an iron from the floor. Moving closer to Jason.“Watch out, watch out.” The people screamed in fear, some had their eyes shot thinking the man had succeeded in hitting Jason with it, Jason moved sideways and the man flung the iron past. Jason saw it as an opportunity, he disarmed the man. Sending a precise punch against his face, the leader’s teeth fell on the floor and blood rushed out of his nose and mouth at the same time. Jason didn’t allow him to rest, he grabbed the iron quickly using it to hit the man’s kneecap and he fell to the floor in pain.The leader of the ground screamed like a ba
Jason walked into the house, he didn’t bother to utter a word. He knew how worried they were about him when they saw the video online.He ambled towards his room without looking back, even when he knew Loki was walking behind him. “Master, Do you need anything?” Loki asked softly, he stared at his master.“No, Loki. I am just worried, this is becoming serious by the day and who knows what will happen next. The police are not helping matters.” Jason said with his voice barely above a whisper.Loki exhaled sharply, he understood where his master was heading. “Master, Are you sure it’s not James Paterson who sent those men against you?” Loki asked.Jason paused looking at Loki, he shoved his hand into his pocket and brought out the slide of paper he collected from the leader of the assassin. “This is what I found in the pocket of one of the assassins,” Jason said, handing it to Loki.“This is an address.” “Yes. I know, Loki. The assassin said they were hired through an anonymous ch
Judith was trying to control her breathing pace and her unsteady voice. “ Master, I have made a difficult decision to resign from my position here at the mansion. I want to go back home and spend time with my family.” She said with her voice barely above a whisper. She slides the envelope towards her master.Mr. Benjamin’s eyes widened and his expression entwined from concern to surprise. “Resign?” He uttered. “ Judith, the police are still investigating Grace’s death. Are you sure this is the right time to leave?” He asked confusingly.Before Judith could utter a word, Lovina stepped into the room with another maid who had a tray in her hand. Judith’s heart sank deeply into her stomach, while Lovina was curious to know why she was standing.“What is going on here, Judith you are supposed to be in the kitchen why are you here? Darling, did you call her here.” Lovina askedMr. Benjamin shook his head, “No, Judith wants to leave us, I was just telling her that this might not be the per
The first thing the detective did was try to find out if Jason was having any issues with anyone, cause he seemed to be falling into trouble and if not for the fact that he was good with his martial arts skills he would have been gone by now.“Mr. Lewis, I have personally interrogated the leader and his men. They are still coming up with the same story and we didn’t find any agency as they claimed.” Detective said smoothly.“What do we do next, there must be something that will lead us to the clue, and those behind if we dig further,” Jason said with his voice barely above a whisper.“Yes, I will continue to dig for more information.” The detective reassured him.Detective William leaned forward, “Mr. Lewis, there is something else I would like to talk to you about?”Jason furrowed his brow curiously, “What is it?” He asked.He brought out a picture of Grace from his jacket and slid it towards Jason. Jason had his eyes fixed on the picture, he knew who it was and why bringing up the
Detective William inhales and exhales sharply, “Mr. Lewis, I am sorry. I have bad news, I received a call that another one of your father’s maids who had been identified as Judith, was found dead earlier, her body was discovered by the side of the road while she was travelling.”Jason felt like the air has sucked out of the room, “ Judith, No. What happened to her?” Detective William shook his head, “I don’t have the details yet, but I was told she attacked while trying to leave town. This can’t be a coincidence. We need to act fast.”Jason clenched his jaw in sadness, “First, it was Grace, and now it’s Judith. Detective William, what is going on? Why are the staff being targeted?” Jason asked with gritted teeth.Detective William’s jaw tightened, “We will find out, Mr. Lewis. But right now, we need to ensure the safety of everyone in the family. “I can’t believe this is happening, Grace and Judith. Both gone. Detective, we need to find out who is behind this. We can’t afford to l
Patrick just ended his call with his friends after informing them he wouldn’t be able to make it to whatever events they had planned for the day after the police appeared at the mansion unexpectedly.The tension was becoming uncomfortable for everyone at the Lewis mansion, Mr. Benjamin and the house were all in grief and fear. Losing two maids in the space of two weeks was something that needed urgent attention.The police surrounded the mansion, while they interrogated some of the staff and Mr. Benjamin himself. It was already noon, and the interrogation procedures were over, just the chief of police that was with Mr. Benjamin in his study room.Patrick ambled back and forth in his room, the situation was becoming alarming and might bring bad business for the family, investors would think since they couldn’t protect their house would they be able to protect their business interests.“What is happening, why is all this happening? Things were never like this at the mansion.” Patrick
“Yes, You think I didn’t see you kill my father that night. You killed him,” Patrick said, Moving close to his mother but Lovina moved backwards using her hands to stop him.“I saw you that night, Mom. You killed him, I had hidden it inside of me for a long time and I wouldn’t want you to kill someone else. I saw how you pushed him down the staircase,”Lovina's eyes were welling up in tears, All this while she had no idea someone saw her kill her ex-husband several years ago. She loved her ex-husband so much, but he kept on punishing her and her son. After his business collapsed, that night he came back drunk and hit her. She couldn’t hold herself and she had to do what she thought was right at the time. Patrick was a little boy when it happened and since then she had been jumping from one failed marriage to another until she met Benjamin Lewis.“Mom, I am sorry if I had to bring back the old memories but I am scared you might want to kill someone again if you haven’t done that alread
