Claire blinked her eyes countlessly, trying to understand what Jake said. There was no way she was marrying him, but how would she tell him?“Umm, should we be thinking about marriage now? I mean, there's a lot on the plate and marriage shouldn't be a priority right now.” Claire finally spoke, shifting uncomfortably in her seat “I know, once all the charges against me are gone, we will get married and have our baby. I don't want this child to be out of wedlock, the baby would be a legitimate child of mine.” Jake boasted and Claire faked a smile“Are we.. really going to get married?” Claire asked before scratching her head.“Why? Don't you want to get married to me?” Jake asked, slightly hurt.“Of course, I'd love to marry you, but I just feel we should still calm down a bit till when I give birth, then we can properly plan a wedding. I don't think it's wise to get married with a pregnant belly.” Claire suggested as she touched her stomach. “Are you worried about what people would s
“What!” Jake yelled in shock and stood up from his seat. The maids thought something had happened to their boss so they rushed to the living room to understand what was happening. Mike just called Jake to deliver the news of Cyrus's death. It came as a shock to him and his hands fidgeted as he held the phone to his ear. “The police are inspecting the house at the moment and have already taken his body to the mortuary. Sadly, he was found dead early this morning by one of his neighbors. His front door was open and curiosity made her check why his door was open. “ Mike sighed dejectedly.“Oh my Goodness, this is so sad. How did it happen? Did he commit suicide or what? Was he sick? We still spoke yesterday afternoon.” Jake spoke and Mike sighed again.“He was stabbed countlessly till he breathed his last. Unfortunately, the killer didn't leave the knife behind. “. Mike explained.“Who could have killed Cyrus? Does he have enemies? Or what exactly?” Jake questioned.“Cyrus was a very
Jake's eyes widened in shock after hearing Mrs Rosalie's name. Although he had his suspicions, never for once did he think all the deaths were linked to her. Especially Zara and his Father.“How are we sure she hired him to do everything, I mean, She won't kill her husband right?” Jake questioned.“How did the spying of a thing start? Wasn't it when you found out someone was seeing Mrs Rosalie? The late Cyrus yet confirmed when he started spying from Mrs Rosalie's house. What evidence do you need again?” Mike said.“Ah, geez! All these are just too much for me to handle. I need to think… ah fuck!” Jake exclaimed.“I understand, I would give you time to think. But we would have to arrest him very soon so he won't kill another person.” Mike spoke and Jake nodded. But“How about Mrs Rosalie? What are you going to do with her?” Mike asked.“I would confront her, get her confession, and have her arrested. not today. I need to think. I just need to get everything off my mind.” Jake spoke a
Mrs Rosalie weeps profusely as she begs for Strausser to spare her life. She couldn't understand why he was acting violently towards her. What could she do to save herself from this situation?“I thought we were accomplices, please don't kill me” Mrs Rosalie continued begging but Strausser paid deaf ears to her plea.“I thought we were accomplices but you went to tell Jake everything, you told him I’m the Mastermind behind everything that happened in your miserable family! fuck you !” Strausser yelled angrily and Mrs Rosalie shrieked.“I didn't tell Jake anything, please believe me.” Mrs Rosalie spoke amidst tears. “I can't believe a devil like you. You are evil and Will be punished. I would send you to the place where you'd be punished.” Strausser announced and her eyes widened in shock yet fear.“Don't… I beg of you, please spare my life, how much do you need, a million? Billion? I would get it for you.” Mrs Rosalie tried bribing him.“I don't need your fucking money, you'd go to h
Claire sighed for the umpteenth time this afternoon as she thought about everything that happened. She couldn't help but think she was at fault and blamed herself. If only she didn't call Strausser to warn him, probably Mrs Rosalie would still be alive. Claire feels guilty that things had to end that way for Mrs Rosalie but then, she has to be extra careful, no one knows where Strausser is at the moment, what if he comes for her and kills her?“My baby.” Claire unknowingly touched her slightly protruding belly in fear. She didn't want to do anything that would harm the baby.“My Father is a military man, why should I be scared?” Claire tried to console herself but deep down she knew her Dad might not be able to save her. Suddenly, General Ismael Larryson came into Claire's room and stood in front of her in worry.” What is the problem, Dad?” His daughter asked.“I haven't seen Osman in days, I went to his hideout but found only his phone.” Her father answered.“What? That's strange…
Strausser and John were partners In crime ten years ago. They had met after Strausser was kicked out of his military camp and was stripped of his position. At first, he was angry that he was kicked out knowing fully well he killed him to protect himself. After a while, Strausser sobered up and believed no one deserved to live.On a fateful day, he sat lazily in the bus station, waiting for the bus when a pregnant lady sat beside him. From her look, she had been crying and he was moved to ask her what had happened. That was when she told him how she was embarrassed by her husband's mistress because she was rich. Now, her husband had turned away from her and wanted to divorce her. “If there's anyone that can kill those two, I'd pay half a million.” Those were the words of the pregnant woman and Strausser became interested. He could do it and earn a lot of money. Besides, he had no source of income. After a lot of briefing, Strausser agreed to help her out and that was how Strausser
It may seem as though the gloominess that covered the Robinson's residence was swapped with an anxious one. It's been days since Jefferson promised to find Strausser but it was to no avail. At some point, Jefferson became scared of the consequences but seeing his mother lying in the morgue boosted his efforts. There was also an alarming matter arising that Jake had to call for an urgent family meeting.It was about Clara wanting to bury her mother immediately and Jake had ordered them not to touch her corpse from the morgue or they face his wrath. Jefferson heard it and became angry, thus the issue of the meeting.At exactly 2 in the afternoon of that day, Jake majestically walked to their regular meeting rule and was rather to see their Angry yet scared faces. Jake had expected to meet a scornful one since that was how they treated him in the house.“You organized a meeting scheduled to be held about thirty minutes ago. If you wanted to come late, why did you tell us to come at that
Claire held the phone tightly in fear, fingers crossed hoping Jake hadn't found out about her involvement in everything.“I can't believe you'd do such a thing,” Jake spoke again and Claire gulped in fear.“Wh… what have I done?” Claire stuttered“You are still asking what you did? What did you do?” Jake asked and her breathing changed to a heavy one.“I don't know what I have done,” Claire stated“You went to see the doctor without me Again. Why do I have to find out through the doctor!” Jake yelled and Claire heaved a sigh of relief. Thank goodness that wasn't what Jake wanted to say. She almost lost it at that moment.“I'm sorry babes, It wasn't time for my check-up but I had to go and explain some symptoms I was having. She prescribed some drugs which were supposed to be delivered today.” Claire explained.“It's the same drug the doctor called me to pick up, why didn't you tell me about your symptoms? Aren't I part of the responsibility?” Jake asked in disappointment.“You're part
