Outside the detention chamber, an old man approached the counter where the receptionist arranged some files and typed some things on the computer in front of her.

This old man was none other than the general, the same cop who had instructed Tristan to be put into the detention chamber until the investigation was over.

"Excuse me?" he called out to the clerk while walking to the counter.

"Sir?" The clerk stood at attention and greeted him with a stern look.

"Where is the phone belonging to that young man who was locked up a few hours ago?" he asked in a stern and serious tone.

"The one accuses of attempted rape sir?"She asked.

"Yes, the detective had asked for it, once unlocked we get access to a few pieces of information related to Paul's whereabouts at least we hope to," He answered and without further ado, she took Tristan's phone out of the drawer underneath the counter and handed it over to the general.

" Thank you," the general left immediately with the devices in his hand. As so

    "Something illegal? what is that supposed to mean, man?" Tristan asked, he felt offended by the unexpected approach."I don't know okay, dude I don't know what to think, you got back this morning suddenly super rich, you paid the fees of over a hundred students and more, and you suddenly have a Range Rover, and a bodyguard yet the cops are after you, what do you expect me to think, I'm worried that you are into drugs, man I'm not going to lie," Harry couldn't believe he just confessed to Tristan, but he felt that it has to be done."Oh, you thought I was into drugs? I'm disappointed man, why do you even think I'll do that?" Tristan couldn't blame him much, he also never expected to be rich overnight, and with the sequence of events one may think that he was into drugs or something dirty."I don't know man, only you know what you are doing that got you this rich, and also the cops said something about you being involved in Paul's disappearance which, I won't lie, made me feel like you

    5:00 amTristan had instructed the system to wake him up as early as possible so he could leave the dorm without being noticed. Taking the same appearance as last night, he walked out of the dorm while Harry was still sound asleep.He had a lot to accomplish today, from interrogating Laura to apologizing to Claudia, and finally finding Paul and completing the task before time ran out because he had until 10;00 am the next day to complete this.While seated in the car, Max asked where he wanted to go, he was surprised to see Max wide awake as if he hadn't gone to bed the previous night. "Did you sleep at all last night?" Tristan asked."Yes, and I hope you had a good rest, sir?" Max inquired with a smile on his face."Yes I did, right now I have no idea how to start, I just have to leave the campus before the cops come here again, and before studens realize that I am here,I can't let them see me. Also, I need to go to Laura's house but it's too early and her parents would get suspicio

    Mr. Ortega was not shocked nor impressed with the sudden change in demeanor, he had experienced it before so it did not make a difference."Listen, young man, I don't want to stretch this for too long, here is a document with everything you need to know about the house, you can sign if you are willing to buy it," without regard or respect, he handed the paper over to Tristan who took it with an apathetic attitude.His jaws dropped at the price of the building, despite having a lot of money at the moment, the prices of these things still surprised him a lot."70 million," He whispered and contemplated whether or not to purchase it, he wasn't sure about his next reward and how much it was going to be.Also, he was not confident in completing the quest as it seems a lot trickier and almost impossible. But he didn't want to be looked down upon by the old Man before him so he signed it in the hope to acquire more and if not from the system, then from his position as a managing director."D

    *Knock knock* The knuckle on the clenched fist of the young detective knocked gently on the door of Claudia's apartment. Her mother had already prepared breakfast and rushed to the door to check who it was, only to be faced by a man dressed in a black suit and dark shades."Good morning sir," She greeted."How may I help you?" "I am looking for Miss Laura Benson, can I speak with her if it's okay?" The detective answered in a cold voice."Uhm... sure come in," Although skeptical, Laura's mother let the detective in and ushered him to take a seat on the sofa, while she ran off to inform Laura that she had a guest."Detective!" Laura exclaimed in shock two minutes later upon seeing him seated like there was a problem."Is everything alright sir?" She asked and the detective stood on his feet and said."Is there any place where you and I can speak, alone?"With a hint of trepidation in her facial expression, she nodded her head and directed him to the back of the house, where there was

    Tristan was not so surprised, besides he had suspected before that Paul might be hiding, but what still didn't make sense to him was how Paul and Laura are doing this together, but Laura called some boys to rob Paul that night."Tell me everything that happened," Lowering his voice, he sat down in front of her, to listen to the tale he longed for, the tale of freedom. And to secure the evidence, he put on the sound recorder on his phone without Laura realizing."He is at his friend's house, that is all I know," Laura said with a straight face trying to avoid the real story she ought to tell, but Tristan/detective played along."I see," he said,"And is he aware that people are looking everywhere for him?" he asked and Laura nodded her head without saying a word."Tell me, Laura, is this a plot among the both of you?" he inquired and yet again Laura nodded her head, her face flushed with embarrassment and she kept her head low to avoid meeting the detective's gaze."Trust me Laura, I w

    "Hope everything is fine?" Laura's mother asked with a worried expression on her face as the detective was about to leave the house, she could not understand the pale expression on her daughter's face, and from the window, she had seen her pleading with the detective and it piqued her curiosity."Everything is fine mam," said the detective, before leaving for the car parked in front of the house, only one person saw something strange and that was Laura.She realized that the car in front of her was the same one she saw Tristan step out from before he was arrested and it dawned on her."Tristan was already rich before he was arrested, but how is that even possible, he paid the fees of over a hundred-plus students?" it did not cross her mind that the detective was driven in Tristan's car.Getting into the car and driving off, Tristan heaved a sigh of relief before changing to his usual form, a satisfactory smile crept upon his face and upon noticing this, Max asked,"Successful?" and to

    Staring from the pleading eyes of the mother to her shocked and speechless son, and his confused girlfriend, Tristan knew that he had to make a choice he would not regret and that was making sure both of them got punished."I could send both of you to jail," he began and at this point, Laura fell to her knees. She had been trying to hold it for so long but she was overwhelmed by guilt and trepidation."Please Tristan I beg you," she tried to touch his feet but the officer came in between them."Please I am so sorry for what I did to you, I was foolish, Paul blinded me and I feel for it, please I beg you, it's not me doing all of this, I don't know what pushed me to ... please," She cried, her head facing the ground ashamed to meet his gaze.Paul however remained at a spot unmoved by the sequence of events, he could not picture himself bowing to Tristan and pleading for forgiveness like Laura was doing, instead, he gave Tristan a weird deadly stare that caused Tristan to be more annoye

    "I just got the baby to sleep, damm," Claudia sighed and sat next to her husband on the couch."I guess the maids can't do everything, " she added."You gave birth to quite the town crier," Tristan chuckled and Claudia laughed,"We, gave birth... not just me, by the way, I found this in one of those old briefcases that you no longer use," she held up a string covered in glitter and Tristan's jaws dropped in shock."I can't believe it," He took it from her, staring at it with a mix of so many emotions. He remembered that string from five years ago when the system had asked him to play the philanthropist role and visit that orphanage. "She'd be a grown-up by now," He uttered and Claudia raised a brow wondering who he was talking about."I can't remember her name, but it was a young girl, about 5 years old I met her at an orphanage once, she was so happy to make me a bracelet, and I gave her my wristwatch in return, I can't believe I still have it after all these years.""Awn," Claudia

    Getting rid of the barrier that stopped her hand from touching his skin, Claudia did the needful, and anyone might think it's massaging but that would be wrong, she played with it, constantly looking into Tristan's eyes to ensure that he responded accordingly to her punishment. With every trace of fluid, she could tell that he was at the breaking point, but she wanted him to say it, believing that a man who is thirsty enough wouldn't hesitate to beg for water to drink."Please," He finally gave in, he no longer saw the need to keep his thought to himself. He lost his mind a long time ago but has struggled to keep it together. That was all she needed to hear, the pleading voice of her man, his surrender to her, his submission and notng more, as much as she tortured him, Claudia tortured herself equally, so she was more than happy to begin the process.Letting Tristan get rid of her clothes, they both indulge in doing the needful, as Claudia took the lead like she wanted, but Tristan

    "You wore this dress on purpose tonight, didn't you?" Tristan asked, gazing lovingly at his wife who sat on the bed where he lay. Her red silky short dress was alluring and no doubt tempting to whatever eyes see it, her red painted nails added to the mix as though she has untold agendas. She turned to him and replied,"What do you think, what's if I did?" She asked and Tristan could already tell what it was that his wife demanded.She had been busy all week, and this weekend she got a break, she had clung to him as though there was a piece of honey left that she had yet to taste."I think you did," Tristan replied and sat up, he leaned forward to kiss he on the lip but Clauide pushed him backwards. "No no," she said,"Lay back down, Tristan," she added, her voice was both soft and demanding, and what more could he do than listen to the woman who seemed to know what she wanted? He had been at home all day, rested enough and was always ready for her.Claudia climbed unto the bed and

    "I can't believe you did this," Claudia uttered whilst staring at the ring on her finger. She was lying in bed next to Tristan who was tired and would be going to bed soon."At least you said yes," Tristan uttered, stroking her hair gently because she was lying in his arms."Imagine how much I would have cried tonight if you had said no," He added jokingly.Claudia faked a frown and turned to face him,"Why would I say no?" She asked him,"It's been four years Tristan, and I always felt like I'd know when you would propose, but you took me completely by surprise. My friend and coursemates have been texting me nonstop, I can't even respond to all of them today, I'm too tired.""Look," Tristan pointed at the clock hanging on the wall,"it's past midnight, 1:44 am. You can reply to them tomorrow, it's not that urgent, I'm so tired too.""Of course, I won't reply to them tonight, they should be asleep too, it's just me who is too excited to sleep, you look tired and you should sleep, don'

"I'll never tell," Tristan smirked before being enveloped in a warm hug from her, "Thank you so much," she uttered with tears in the corner of her eyes, after which she vanished into the crowd and began greeting everyone she met.Firstly, her mother. It has been nearly two years since they last met in person, her father was also present and she couldn't use words to express how grateful she was to them for showing up.Next was Tristan's mother, even since she moved to LA with Tristan, she barely saw the lady, and she was more than happy to meet her again.

    “Sleeping?” Claudia smiled as she walked into the room and gazed upon her handsome man on the bed. Her entrance had disturbed his sleep but he didn’t mind.“Welcome back,” Tristan greeted her while running his finger over his sleepy eyes. He quickly stole a glance at the clock to ensure that he hadn’t slept past the time he wanted to, unfortunately he had. But he didn't panic so much, Claudia had gotten back an hour earlier, so all he needed to was to get ready and urge her to get dressed too."How was work?" He inquired, trying to keep the conversation simple because he had told her nothing about the party."Stressful, as always," She sat next to him on the bed, she placed a kiss on his cheek and stood up immediately, she wanted to take shower before anything."I told you not to go to work on your birthdays, it is not that big of a deal, if your boss as much as threatens to fire you, I'll buy the hospital and make you the owner."

His mother tapped his back with a smile. "By the way, when does she get back from the hospital?" she asked."5 pm, " Tristan answered, and suddenly noticed that he wasn't seeing his cake."Where is the cake?" He asked."Her cake?" his mom asked and he nodded,"I don't know, but it can't be here by now, it'll melt before she even shows up, it's just noon. I want to go get my nails done, and it's going to be a grad party." His mother excitedly walked out of the hall."I'll go with Mom, don't worry brother, she will love it," Ariana hugged him before running out of the hall after her mother, she also wanted to get her nails done.Tristan drew a chair from the set-up, and sat down with a sigh, he couldn't believe that it had been four years since the system left, and it had been four years since he met Claudia.
