“Jason Lewis,” the lady said.

Jason furrowed his brow in confusion,

“It’s me, Clara Mathew. Your coursemate at Kenworth University.” He said.

“Ooooh, Clara. Wow, it’s been long. How have you been.” He questioned, with his gaze fixed on Zachary Reed who was at the other end of the hotel waiting for him.

Clara said smiling, “I am fine Jason, What are you doing in Venice?”

Jason returned the smile, “I came for a business meeting, what about you? What are you doing here.” He questioned.

“Well my husband is the manager of the hotel, and I work here.”

“That’s nice,” Jason was feeling uncomfortable with the conversation. If he knew he would see someone he knows he would haven’t taken this direction. He was running out of time.

“Where are you heading, I can introduce you to my husband. He is at his office. It’s nice to see you after many years.”

Jason stared at his wristwatch with a mixed expression.

He stopped when he noticed two guards approaching him with their guns aimed at him, their faces obscured by black ski masks. They search him thoroughly before gesturing for him to follow them.

He watched as the guards moved towards Christian handing him the document, and his face changed.Christian Rafael opened the file to confirm it was the real one, he skimmed through each page slowly before raising his head to face Jason.Jason felt a surge of frustration and pain within him, he couldn’t hold what was in his mind so he voiced out. “Why are you doing this, why are you trying to play the hero when we know you didn’t kill any of the ladies,” Jason uttered, he was trying to gain more evidence and wanted to know who did it.Christian Rafael glared at h

    That night, Mr. Benjamin couldn’t come to terms with sleep. He was restless, his mind racing through several conflicting thoughts. He was still waiting for a response from the police, but nothing had been found. He paused back and forth in his study room with one of his hands clasped behind his back and the other hand he used to hold the wine glass.“Who could have done this to my son? Why will he always have to face difficulties.” He questioned inwardly. He sipped from his wine glass, consuming the liquid content slowly. He perceived a subtle knock on the door and turned his gaze to deduce who it was.When the door creaked open, Robert ambled inside with a saddened demeanor. He tilted his head while standing before Mr. Benjamin.“What is it? Did you find anything?” He questioned with his face etched with worries.Robert sighed softly, as he nodded negatively. “No, Master.

His recovery will depend on him.” The doctor uttered Calmly.Mr. Benjamin felt a surge of sorrow and sadness within him; his face was lit up knowing his son was alive, but another part of his heart was pounding in fear and pain hearing his son was in a coma. “Doctor, can we see him?” Oscar Morgan muttered calmly.“No, you can’t see him.
