Chapter 110 Pedro had finally made a decision that made some sense to him. He had decided to go and meet the seer who certainly was the only one that could give him the answers that he needed, it was something he knew, even when he tried to let go of that idea. He was already close to the store where he had seen the woman the previous day, but he sat glued to his seat as if he could not move to go out on his own. He was tensed, and knew that she had the upper hand now, especially when he needed another favour from her… she always did. Pedro grabbed hold of the car steering, putting his head there and mumbling inaudibly some affirmations to help him get through everything until he was back to the car. Pedro suddenly cleaned his face as he quickly withdrew his car keys from the ignition box, putting the car to an end. He walked calmly towards the store as he slowly breathe in and out until his eyes caught up with the woman's, and there he saw a sudden smile on her face. "Why the he
Chapter 111( 5 Years Later: End of flashback )It had been days if not weeks. Shawn, Amelia and Ava had not returned to school. The incident left them struck into their beds at home and they felt like they never needed school anymore. They had found a way to be comfortable without school, as long as there was some income to sustain them.Shawn on the other hand, up until now, knew nothing of where the money came from. He only knew they had some stream of wealth and it never ended. One time, a few days back, the girls had ordered some buffet with a bottle of champagne, one that cost thousands, if not millions of dollars. When he had been told by the girls how much it costs he thought they were only joking and were not serious with the amount they mentioned, not until he was shown a tag that accompanied itShawn was speechless, he glared at the girls with mixed feelings, thinking if he was supposed to be happy that they were enjoying themselves. Or worried that he had no idea where al
Chapter 112Shawn's eyes lighted up as tears filled in. He felt his body freeze for a minute until he heard his voice mutter."Hello, young master!”It was really Pedro… and how he got to his house, Shawn had no idea but at that moment, there were mixed feelings."I am supposed to hug him? Or I'm just going to stand here and see what unfolds next?" Shawn whispered to himself as he let out a tear."What's going on?" Ava's voice asked just behind Shawn and she placed her hands on Shawn's shoulders."Who is there?" Amelia joined to ask as she walked towards the door where Shawn stood to check why Shawn stood still like a plank of wood."How are you doing, young master?" Pedro asked with a shaky voice and just then, Shawn lifted his face to meet his teary eyes of Pedro. This was a surprise and at the same time an emotional moment for Shawn and Pedro. The two couldn't even hug themselves with the level of emotions that flooded the air.“I… I… am okay!" Shawn responded with a stutter as h
Chapter 113It had been 5 hours since the girls last saw Shawn. 5 hours after the man that came in to look for Shawn walked out. Still, they had no idea who he was and what he came for. Shawn refused to speak to them about Pedro, who they knew nothing about. They waited for him to come out of his room, and when he finally did, they knew they would have the chance to ask him whatever they needed to know.Shawn stepped out of his room in an attempt to head for the kitchen when the girls walked up on him, blocking him before he could sneak in and out back to his room."What the hell? You shared the shit out of me," Shawn yelled as he held his heart in his hands."We did not scare you, we only noticed that you were trying to sneak to the kitchen to do whatever it is you wanted to do…" they both chorused as they gave Shawn a stern look."No, no! That isn't what I was doing… I only tried to dash to the kitchen because I needed to get something and immediately return to my room, that's all,
Chapter 114Shawn had his eyes on the door now. There were only two things that would be if all he thought of truly happened. One was that he was going to see himself in jail sooner than he expected, or just maybe he was in some serious trouble.Ava took the bold step to twist the doorknob as she opened it. She poked her face slowly through the little space she had created, checking to see who knocked on the door and what they wanted."Bring the boy out… we need to take him with us now!" They ordered, and Shawn could feel the anger and authority in their voice."Who are you talking about? We do not know who you mean, we have not heard that name around here before," Ava said to them with a glare, showing them that she was not afraid of them or the guns they carried around in the name of security."Are you sure you are telling us the truth? We need to know the truth and as citizens you need to be truthful else you will face the law," the officer who stood before Ava lectured her."Crazy
Chapter 115Mike's return from the president's office to the yard had caused a lot of problems and had brought so much trouble to him. He had not been told by anyone that he wasn't supposed to get any information from the president because whatever he was going to promise to give was just a scam… it wasn't real.He was not the kind of person who kept to his word, and if Mike had known this, for sure he would not have shaken hands with him. He, for sure, had made a huge blunder on his part. All eyes were on Mike and Leah now. Everyone had their eyes and ears on him just in case he had reasons to be suspected of anything. The men who stayed in the prison longer than Mike did have given an order to the rest of the guys in the prison to watch out for him… when Mike's bunkmate was no exception to this.It had been a few weeks now, and nothing had been mentioned to Shawn by anyone. Plans had been made to escape prison in 4 months when the digging was going to be completed but Mike this tim
Chapter 116"Hey, you!!" A loud voice uttered pointing towards her as she turned her face in the direction of the voice."Huh…!!" Those were the only words she uttered as her heart shook when she knew she was the one being called."Come with me!! The voice commanded and Leah could feel her legs already tickling to get going before something happened to her.She could feel waves of shivers through her spine. As though it was her fate, her heart pounded like this day would be her last.She rose from where she had sat and tried to clean herself up but there was simply no time for that as the man quickly grabbed her arm ferociously and moved her in the direction where she had seen them take Mike.Now it was getting scary and she could not bear this on her own. She tried to be calm as they approached the area in the yard where there were no lights, and the closer they moved in the more there was a noise up front in the building ahead of them."Where are you taking me?" Leah voiced out afte
Chapter 117Shawn had been arrested and was taken to a detention center where he was going to get interrogated by some policemen about the murder of Erica.The news and rumors had been put to bed for a long time since Shawn and the rest of his friends had moved away from the home and anywhere possible where they would have been found.Someone was responsible for this because none of the police officers had wanted to go in search of Shawn, knowing fully well that he wasn't going to be found that easily.The police had been informed that someone was coming to speak to Shawn as they had locked him up in the dark so he would have no idea where he was. He had been there for over two days and was weak. No food, no water, and in the most heated hours of the day when he would find himself sleeping for no reason, he had nightmares, much more times than he would have ever imagined. But the part that got him upset was the fact that he would wake up and not remember what the dream was about. Th
Chapter 120The alarms sounded, shimmering into the ears of the inmates waking them up from their sleep. It was quite earlier than the rest of the days and that was because it was a special day. Most of the Inmates that had been in the prison for years were finally getting their freedom back and they would be going home finally, after a long, long wait.The timetables for the day had been set and the inmates were made aware of what was going to happen today. New inmates were going to roll in either from a transfer from another prison or sentencing. And at the same time, a few people were going to leave— only those that survived though.It had been said that most of the inmates that would have gotten their freedom the next day were likely killed by their fellow inmates because of envy and other reasons which weren't made known to the General public.Mike and Leah after hearing all of the horrors had their eyes and their ears open throughout the night. They knew they had no excuse for n
Chapter 119(Hours Before The Mission)Pedro had been in constant communication with Grace. She had something Pedro needed and that was to be able to know what was happening even when he was with Shawn, and what was going to happen with his friends in the prison.Grace was the only one who Pedro had seen with such a gift, and in a long time, nothing had been heard of them until now. Pedro knew there was a big reason why she had offered to help him with Shawn's issue, even at the same time offering to help Mike and Leah out.She had an idea of how she was going to get them out of the prison. It was not convincing enough but Pedro had a much bigger reason to believe in what she had told him.Pedro was out of town and did not need Shawn's parents, who were in constant communication with him to know what was going on. He had to handle this alone and find a way not to involve or put any of his people in trouble.Shawn's parents needed to see Shawn as soon as possible. They feared that some
Chapter 118"Erica!! How are you still alive?" Shawn voiced, taking in a deep breath."Did you expect me to be dead? So much for the plan you had set up…" she said with a big smile as she gave Shawn a glance from head to toe. It seemed she was liking all that she had seen at the moment."Why are you in these ropes?" Erica asked, pretending to have nothing to do with this, she had on a pitiful face"Ohh fuck! Why is she acting like she has no idea what I am going through? She ordered the guards to do this to me and now she's here acting all innocent. Girls!!! Never to be trusted!" Shawn thought to himself as he shook his head in disapproval.It was just unbelievable. The news had been everywhere that he was the one who murdered her, but here she was standing before him with a scary wicked grin. "Why are you acting like you did not have a hand in this? I know you are the sole reason why I am tied in this fucking—" Shawn spoke furiously as he lifted his hands to show Erica what she had
