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
"Thank you for coming, Mr. Lewis. please have a seat," Detective William said, gesturing to the seat opposite his chair. "I have gone through the evidence. It was a letter to you, we couldn’t get the full details but we believe she was trying to pass a message across to you before her death.”Detective William brought out a photocopy slide of the paper and handed them to Jason. It was not clear enough but he could read the first few lines, which had his name bloody written on it.“What else did you find out about the incident?” Jason asked softly, he was becoming confused about the case and was curious to know if they had found any clue.“Nothing, yet. We are still investigating the situation.” Detective William said.Jason sighed, he was disappointed that there was still no clue on who was behind the death of the two maids. He felt a surge of frustration coursing through his veins.He remembered he had something to show the detective, Jason brought out a small envelope from his Jack
Detective William inhales and exhales sharply, “Mr. Lewis, the man here happens to be your stepbrother's legitimate father. I got it from a friend. Patrick’s father died a long time ago and to date, no one has been able to figure out how he died. I was told he fell from the staircase after he came back home drunk. But the neighbours said they heard some arguments inside the house before the incident. Not just that, look at this.” Jason looked at the screen again, he was surprised with what detective William had just said. He had been busy with work and he had forgotten to do a background check on Lovina and her son.“Here is your stepmother coming out of a 7-star hotel. Does your family have any business with the hotel owner or any meeting there in the last two weeks?” Jason shook his head, “, Where did you get this image,” Detective William knew Jason was going to ask so he lied, he didn’t know how Jason would react when he heard he had been trailing his stepmother. Since the i
Ruger pleaded for Jason to stop, and he was willing to speak. Jason’s gaze switched from Ruger to detective William who gave him a light nod before moving back to Ruger.“I will speak. Just stop, please.” Ruger said, pleading.“Then don’t waste our time, speak.” Detective William said giving no room for Ruger as his gun was still aimed at him.Ruger felt defeated, he knew the men weren’t willing to give up if he didn’t speak, and he would be going to jail even if he spoke or not. He opened his mouth to make a statement when a gunshot rang from an unknown direction. Ruger’s body jerked violently and collapsed to the ground with blood pooling around him.“Get down, Get down.” Detective William shouted at the top of his voice. Detective William and Jason moved towards a nearby vehicle, as they sought to protect themselves from the unknown person. Chaos erupted as the sound of gunfire filled the air. Both men hid behind a car, trying to pinpoint the shooter’s location. Bullets were fire
Jonathan without hesitation mouthed softly. “If you want to hit him again, I suggest you find his weaknesses, his vulnerabilities.” Lovina and Patrick exchanged glances at each other, they were trying to catch up with his line of thought. “His weaknesses. What do you mean.” Lovina asked with her voice barely above a whisper.Jonathan gave them a light nod, he moved a bit towards them. “ Everyone has something or someone they care about so much, something they will do to protect at all cost. If we must succeed we will need to find out what that is for Jason. Once we know, we can use it to our advantage.” Patrick maintained a bit, “What are you saying? Do you mean we should target someone close to him? Like, make him suffer through them?” “Sure, if you can break or get him directly. You can get hold of him through those he loves and cares about. We turn his strength into weakness.” Jonathan said smoothly.Lovina’s mind was eased a bit, the Jonathan she hated had Just dropped a punchl
Jason drew a deep breath, “I have a few questions for you, I want you to tell me the truth. What is happening at the Mansion.” Jason abruptly questioned in a serious tone.Robert moved a bit, he knew where Jason was going. But he didn’t have an answer to his question. “Robert, I want to know. Everything at the mansion is becoming scary, and if it continues like that the workers might want to quit. Think about it, losing two maids.” Robert inhaled and exhaled softly, he felt disappointed inside of him knowing he couldn’t help his colleagues. “Master, we are trying to find out who did it. We checked all the CCTV from that day and nothing was seen, I even had to check myself, go round the mansion to see if I could find anything and even ask people around but no one knows anything.” Robert said with his soft voice.Robert continues to state some things he noticed that have been happening around the mansion, and how the servants are becoming scared of staying at the mansion but after Mr
His mind raced through several thoughts, and he couldn’t stop thinking of what was happening. he remembered leaving home early that morning knowing everything was all right, and receiving a call now from his maid that he should come back home made his mind skip.He honked at the gate when he was almost closed, his mind was pounding fast in his chest. The gatekeeper immediately parted the door open, Detective William glanced through the mirror and he could see the sadness on the gatekeeper’s face.He drove in immediately, from outside he could hear the cry of people coming from inside the house. Detective William stepped out of the car in a hurry, he even injured himself but wasn’t bothered. His main focus was to deduce what was happening in his house and why is everyone crying.He strides inside and finds his wife and her mother, crying. The wife, Emma, rushed towards him. Her eyes had turned red and her nostrils filled with mucus. Detective William held her tight.He scanned around a
