"I guess you know George Melmer, your boyfriend's brother-in-law," Dan said out loud, repeating the question he had asked Sally in her dream.

"What do you mean by that question, and why are you asking me?" Sally asked furrowing her brows.

"Calm down, I mean no harm. Do you know him or not?" He asked me to fold his arms.

Sally sighed softly and replied, "Yes, I do."

"You have to work hand in hand with me, I know you're also after The Melmers' inheritance," Dan said, moving to her back. He caressed her shoulders gently.

"You know, we could make a team." He said and moved away from him.

"I don't know you, and I'm not in the mood to discuss nonsense with you, just let me go, someone is waiting for me outside."

Sally didn't allow him to say anything before she walked out on him. She sighted Austin from the window and rushed downstairs, She wondered what he wanted.

Austin waited impatiently for Sally outside, he wondered where she had been.

He sat on a block, and as soon as he saw her

    Anna walked into the living room where George was sitting on the couch, reading a book. She looked worried, and George could sense that something was wrong."Hey, what's going on?" George asked, setting his book aside and giving Anna his full attention.Anna took a deep breath before answering. "My foster parents called me today. They're about to lose their bakery."George raised his eyebrows in surprise. He knew Anna's foster parents had a bakery, but he didn't realize they were struggling."What happened?" George asked.Anna shrugged. "They didn't give me all the details, but it sounds like they're having trouble making ends meet. They sounded really upset, and I don't know what to do.George nodded, understanding Anna's concern. "Have you talked to your dad about it?"Anna hesitated before answering. "I don't want to bother him with this. He's already done so much for me, and I don't want to be a burden."George put his arm around Anna's shoulder. "You're not a burden, Anna. Your d

    After George got home, he met Anna sleeping on the couch in the living room. She must have been stressed. He didn't bother to wake her.He walked into the kitchen and dished food from the microwave himself. After eating, he took a blanket from their big-sized bed and laid it on her, ensuring she didn't feel any sort of cold.He entered the bathroom and took a quick bath. While he was in the bathroom, his mind went to the way Austin ignored him earlier, he felt rejected. Anna was the only person that made him stay and endure.After bathing, he changed into his nightwear and slept with the bed lamp on.George's phone rang in the early hours of the morning. He rubbed the sleep from his eyes and answered groggily."George, it's Sir Matt. I need you to do me a favor," the voice on the other end of the line said urgently."Of course, Sir Matt. What do you need?" George replied, now fully awake."I have some documents that I need to be delivered to someone very important. They're incredibly

    The other masked men approached the car, wielding baseball bats and crowbars, and quickly pulled George out of the car. The Uber driver was immediately scared and took off without looking back, leaving George to face the attackers alone."What do you want from me?" George asked, trying to keep his cool."Hand over the briefcase," the leader of the group demanded, pointing his baseball bat at George."I don't know what you're talking about," George replied, trying to hide the briefcase behind his back."Cut the crap, we know you have the briefcase. We were tipped off by someone who wants it, and we're not leaving without it."George could see the determination in their eyes and knew that he was in serious trouble. He tried to run, but one of the attackers quickly caught up to him and hit him with a crowbar, causing him to fall to the ground.The group then proceeded to beat George mercilessly, hitting him with their weapons and kicking him while he was down.

    As George kept on following the man, he was attacked again, when he looked back he discovered the man he was following was one of the masked men. George stumbled down the lonely street, nursing his bruises and cuts. He couldn't believe what had just happened. He had been so foolish to follow the man, and now he had not only lost the briefcase but also disclosed the owner's identity to the masked men.He looked up and saw the same masked man standing in front of him, a smug look on his face."Didn't think it would be that easy, did you?" the man sneered.George gritted his teeth in pain but managed to speak through his clenched jaw. "Who are you, people? What do you want?"The masked man chuckled. "We want what's ours," he said. "And you, George, just made it a whole lot easier for us to get it."George tried to stand up straight, but his legs were shaky. "I don't understand," he said. "What did I do? Haven't you gotten what you wanted?"The masked man stepped closer, his breath hot o

    The masked men gathered in a secluded location, their faces hidden behind masks. One of them pulled out a phone and dialed a number."Hello?" a voice answered on the other end."It's done," the masked man said. "We got the briefcase.""Excellent work," the voice on the other end said. "I'll transfer the payment to you now."The masked man waited as the payment came through on his phone. He checked it and nodded, satisfied with the amount."Thank you," he said. "Is there anything else?""Yes," the voice said. "I have another job for you. Something bigger."The masked men exchanged glances, their curiosity piqued."What do you have in mind?" the masked man asked."I'll tell you when the time is right," the voice said. "But for now, rest assured that you'll be well compensated for your services."The masked men nodded, pleased with the prospect of more work and more money."We'll be ready when you need us," the masked man said."Good," the voice said. "I'll be in touch."The call ended,

    Sir Matt believed what the Uber driver had to say because Austin was involved. He had earlier contacted Austin to tell him about the issue and Austin had promised to look into it which he did and came up with the Uber driver.He shook his head as he felt so bad about it. He had never expected that George would do such a thing. They had only hated him because he was a man of no level and class and all the while he lived with them, he never stole or got accused of stealing.This was the first, to know that he had actually planned this out with the guys that attacked him got Sir Matt angry."Why would he do such a thing when they were giving him everything he needed? House, shelter, food, and clothing. It was very strange and uncalled for and it got Sir Matt very disappointed."Dad, let's do something quick about this. This useless man here is evil, I have been trying to point it out but none of you saw it. He is mean and wicked, after everything we had done for him, he chose to repay us

    The summer breeze whooshed past George's face as he stepped out of the compound of the Melmer's Mansion."The smell of summer is so nice," He said out loud to no one in particular. "It smelled especially nice today" He noted again, smiling sadly.He took in a deep breath of the summer's fresh air, and it felt so calming, so soothing. It went through his lungs, down to his veins, and deep down his core with a new level of relief. Finally, he was free from the shackles of the Melmer family and their bitter hatred towards him.He looked behind him, at the mansion, promising himself that it was the last time he was going to ever look back at it. The sad smile on his face vanished instantly, and the pain was evident in his eyes. The Mansion held a lot of memories for him. Sir Matt had always tried to treat him like his own biological son, even when the whole family had been so opposed to the idea of making him marry Anna, Sir Matt had still stood by him then.George had been seeing Sir Ma

    Three pairs of eyes were staring at George with a kind of indecipherable expression on their faces, blocking him from moving any further. He stepped back subconsciously, as his mind began to make quick calculations as to whether to start running away.He calculated his chances of escaping from these mean-looking men but soon discovered he had a very slim chance of getting away from them. He had no choice but to just stay, whatever the problem was, he just had to settle it with them. Then a thought occurred to him, accompanied by a feeling of dread. "What if Austin had sent out people to kill him?" Austin was extremely dangerous and would do anything just to get his enemy out of the way. But was there a reason to do that? He had already been chased out of their house, why was he after his life now?He scanned the faces of the men in front of him and they weren't smiling at all. Three of them wore a pair of suits each. From a closer look, they kind of looked like businessmen and not

    On getting close to the penthouse, George stopped the car, making the other people to do so too."Why are you stopping?" Jane asked him."It's dangerous, remember the group of dangerous men that was seen entering the penthouse," George pointed out."Yeah, I remember," Jane replied.George decided to involve the police in order to have assurance for safety.

I and Chris had checked almost all the CCTV cameras in search of Anna. The house they are staying at on the outskirts of the city is unusually cold. As of today, I don't think Anna is safe anymore.

He checked it and saw it was a strange number, he hesitated before picking it up, a strange number hadn't called his phone so he was skeptical about picking up the call but since he didn't know the reason why whosoever that was calling him was using a strange number, he decided to pick the call."Hello, I guess you are good, George Melmer!" A deep masculine voice said."Of course, who is this?" George replied."I heard about your wife and I can be of help. I know who has her, and where she is and if you think I am lying, check the CCTV footage I will forward now to your phone," The voice said and immediately

    They all stared at Sally as she brought out a gun from her cloth. "Guess I came prepared too." They all moved back in shock as more SWATs entered. "Everybody out!" The people in the restaurant were allowed to go outside, leaving George and Sally with the SWATs."You don't want to do this Sally, just surrender and let's all forget that this ever happens." George said.George had called the SWAT on his way to the restaurant. He wanted to arrest Sally and he had put a recording tape on his body, which recorded everything and enhanced the SWATs to hear everything said by them."This is exactly what I want to do, to finish everybody off and return to my mom." She pointed the gun at George and pulled the trigger unexpectedly, cursing a distraction for them all. She used that medium to run out of the restaurant, she met one of the SWATs outside waiting for them and shot him before he was able to lift his gun to shoot."Oh my gosh!

    George exchanged a look with Sally before starting his questions. "Why are you like this? You wouldn't have been born to be evil." He has been wondering about the question for a long time now and he only had time to ask about it then.Sally sighed. "That should not be your concern George but if you want to know, I was born as a sweet girl but that sweetness suddenly disappeared when my father lost his job. Your family caused that and my mom wanted revenge but couldn't do it by herself. She had been bittered since the death of my father who died recently because of the delay when ma'am Patricia opposed the marriage and got hospitalized. My mother wanted her revenge then, so she put up a test for us all which I was able to pass without much stress but I was a child that's not trusted, I was too sweet to do evil tasks, so another task was brought up which got me thinking and all that.""Do you know that I had a lover then?"

    "George?" Sally's smile dropped immediately. "What are you doing here?" She asked as she looked around, trying to detect if George was playing a prank on her."I'm here to see you, you know Chris right, don't look for someone else!" George said, snapping his fingers before her face, he noticed how she was glancing around like she was searching for someone.Sally stared back at him and watched as he pulled out a chair and made himself comfortable on it with his legs crossed on each other. "Come on Sally, why are you silent? We're here for business, then let's proceed with it or isn't that why we're here?" George asked her as he pretended to be removing the dirt from his nails.Sally laughed crankily, desiring to play smart. "What are you talking about George? We're here for business? Will you mind me asking you which business that is? Because I don't remember engaging in a business with you." She said with a fake confused look."Oh Sally! Allow me to refresh your dumb brain then.

She asked, spinning around for Austin to see.He was just staring at her, unable to move any part of his body, even his mouth felt so heavy."You don't have to talk, I know I look beautiful, even more beautiful than I used to be." "Look at me very well. Do you think I'm the most beautiful girl in the area?""Well." She laughed.

    "Like I was saying, you shouldn't trust these women, they are evil. You don't even know their motives for coming here," Josh said as he stood with Anna looking at Sally and her mother, Elizabeth who was sitting beside Austin who had been hospitalised and was receiving intense care."But they look so harmless especially today," Anna said in reply as she also looked at them.Sally had apologized and confessed to treating Austin badly but she didn't mention she was the one who put him in such a condition. Anna, who had a soft heart, forgave Sally when Sally's Mom got involved. Sally begged her to look after Austin for the last time."Of course, they would look very harmless but they are Austin's greatest nightmare who he never prays to meet in his life again. Sally has never loved him, I can attest to that. Even Austin knows too," Josh replied as he watched Sally and her mother who had already sat on a couch in the ward."What are you suggesting I should do now?" Anna asked as he looked a
