“Could Georgina have been the one who tried to kill Zara? Otherwise, why would she ask after her all of a sudden? I actually thought it was Sandra or Jefferson, I forgot about Georgina and how vile she can be when she wants something.”“I need to talk to Max and find out if he has any leads on Zara's attempted murder. I won't be able to rest easy until all of this is over and Zara is safe and sound, out of danger.”Walking through the hallway on his way to his office absentminded, Jake suddenly stopped at his secretary's desk to ask her a question but she wasn't there which was very unusual for her, she was always at her desk if she wasn't there then maybe she was in his office or downstairs so he decided not to think too much about it.Jake decided to put a call through to Max to ask how Zara was doing since he couldn't go back to the hospital yesterday. Max picked up on the third ring. "Hey Max, how's it going? How is she doing now, any improvements?" Jake asks Max who just sighs d
Jake continued his routine of going to work in the mornings and spending the rest of his day at the hospital in Zara's room talking to her, taking turns with Max and his father to monitor Zara's progress and relieve her family for two days. Today makes it the third dayLaura, Jake's assistant secretary played a very important role in this new routine as she had to draft and adjust his schedule to suit the new routine. Laura always rose to the occasion and this time wasn't an exception.He made a promise to himself to give her a raise for she did most of the work and handled his absence very well.Speaking of the angel, she just came into his office."Sir, I'm here to give the feedback on the assignment you gave to me," Laura says upon her entry."Okay proceed, I'm listening" Jake answers, paying her his full attention."So as per your request, I asked Georgina's direct superior about her recent attitude, if there was any difference, and if she was now compliant and obedient. She said
“What do you mean Sandra?” Jake questioned irritably as he glared at Mike.“I know it's hard to believe, but she was the one who hired those hitmen. I don't know what she had against Zara though.” Mike sighed as he brought out his phone.“I can't believe Sandra would do such a thing,” Jake mumbled in disbelief. Of all people, he never expected Sandra to do this to Zara. From what he knows, Sandra only encountered Zara twice and those times were explanatory since he introduced Zara as his best friend then.“How sure are you about this information?” Jake asked seriously and Mike handed him his phone. “I'm sure. And yeah, she's got an accomplice, they were in cahoot. I was able to tap through her phone and hack her social media account. There's some guy she chats with. His picture is there, have a look.” Mike urged and Jake gulped down nothing as he grabbed the phone from him.As soon as he saw who the man that was in cahoot with Sandra was, his eyes bulged in shock and dismay.” What th
Everyone turned to look at Mr Osborne Robinson and wondered why he stopped the cops from taking Jefferson away. Mrs. Rosalie heaved a sigh as she knew at this point Mr. Osborne wouldn't want to tarnish his reputation further.“But Dad, Jefferson is guilty of everything, he cahooted with this bitch to ruin my wedding!” Jake half yelled and his Father sighed.“Even at that, I wouldn't want Robinson to spend the night in the prison cell. If this matter leaks, don't you know you will get affected? The company and everything you owned would be affected. And nobody would want to partner with us because of our fucked up family!” He spoke the last word in anger as he glared at the embarrassed Jefferson.“Have you seen where your foolishness has gotten you? Because of you, this family is about to lose its reputation. Your scandalous activities to bring your brother down have finally led you.” Mr Osborne Robinson spat out and Jefferson bowed his head low in shame. “Now take a look at you, hand
Georgina didn't know if she was in panic mode or not. She thought she had pushed her just a few steps back, not something that could have landed her on the floor. “Oh, geez what am I supposed to do? This is so much blood!” Georgina panted frantically as she stood up from Agatha's body. She looked around and sighed at the brown Envelope she had seen with her earlier while coming from the hospital. Slowly, she walked towards it with fidgeting hands and grabbed it…Georgina opened the envelope and slowly brought out the paper attached to it. “Oh no!” Georgina exclaimed as she fixed her hands to her mouth, making the paper dropdown. Tears filled her eyes as she glanced at Agatha.“She…she has cancer?” She mumbled these words as tears rolled out of her eyes uncontrollably. Soon after she thought of an idea and phoned the ambulance before escaping from the house without looking back.Yes, she had to run. She had endangered her best friend due to her useless thinking and jealousy. Thanks t
Jake gripped his phone tightly as he heard Maron's smirk from the other end. How could he not remember who the devil he was?“How did you get my number?” Jake asked coldly.“Chill bro, you don't need to get worked up. And as for your number, I've got ways too.” Maron replied.” Now back to why I called, you must be wondering how your dare Agatha died right?” Maron spoke in mockery“The fuck! Did you do this? How dare you!” Jake gritted his teeth in anger.“Me?” Maron started As he let out a short laugh.” I could engage in malicious acts but killing is not my thing.” He spoke casually.“Don't you dare lie to me!” Jake yelled angrily.“If you want answers, I'll text you an address, meet me there by 5 pm this evening. If you come with cops or anything related to the law, then forget about the truth. Bye.” Maron concluded before ending the call.Jake gritted his teeth as he banged his fist hard on the table.” How dare he!” He muttered, breathing frantically.Soon, Secretary Steve knocked o
Jake had just gotten to the location Maron gave him and was surprised to see it was a rather normal place, void of danger and people going around doing their business. Of course, Jake was expecting to see an abandoned, uncompleted apartment, fitting for a criminal like Maron. Just as he got to the expected meeting point, he saw Maron whose back was facing him, he was currently on a phone call. Moved with curiosity, Jake walked slowly and hid behind a garbage dump. That was when he could hear what Maron spoke clearly.“I've got the evidence against you, I have been following you secretly till you went to Agatha's house.x” Maron snickered and Jake wondered who he was talking to. It was the person who murdered Agatha, but what did he mean when he got evidence against him?“I fucking recorded you, don't act smart, you've been caught, by the way, Jake should be on his way here, I'm going to tell him everything and how you killed your best friend,” Maron spoke and Jake's eyes bulged in sh
The Robinson's residence was rather quiet than usual, it may seem as though most of the family members were not around, probably busy with Their work or other activities. Sat in the living room was Mrs Rosalie, she laid lazily on the couch as she was glued to her phone, grinning and smiling like a teenager in love. It was obvious she was chatting with someone,but who could be the person. Suddenly,her phone buzzed and she checked the caller. A bit surprised, she picked the call.“I thought you didn't want to hear my voice today.” She spoke timidly and a male voice chuckled from the other end of the phone.“I couldn't hold it in any longer, these chatting won't work out, let's meet up today.” The voice spoke and Mrs Rosalie suddenly stood up and rushed to a corner, she looked left then right before speaking in a whispered tone.“He's around today. As I speak with you, he's currently in his study. It would be rather hard for me to come without him noticing my absence.” Mrs Rosalie Frow
