THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW MURDER
Jackson did not return on Saturday, nor was he seen on Sunday. And by Monday, Andrew was already fuming with anger at his betrayal. Unfortunately for him, Jasmine keeps teasing him. "Did I warn you or not? The young man had disappeared into the thin air. I won't be surprised if he had sold the car and escaped to another country." "He can't," Andrew answered back. "His children were still with Simpson, and she informed me that she had never set eyes on him." "Did you tell her to inform the police as soon as she set eyes on him? We can't let him escape with your car." "The car is not mine. I bought it for him. How many times did I have to remind you that?" "Hey. No need to yell at me. I was just trying to help." "What did you give to him?" "Some cash for Ajay. Joined with the one you gave to him and the money he will be making from the sales of the Bentley. He had enough cash to take him far away from us." "I hope nothing bad had happened to him. I called all the police posts al
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW LIFE IS ABOUT WHO YOU KNOW
"Help. Someone is dying here!" Andrew opened his mouth to shriek, but he doubted that his throat produced a sound. He had seen dead bodies before, dead and mutilated. But it wasn't like this gruesome scene before him.Whoever did the job had done a nice and professional job. "Help!" He saw the receptionist as she raced into the room, gawked at him with sombre eyes, and then at the dead man on the floor. "What happened to him, Sir?" "I have no idea, I met him like this." "Oh my gosh! He was alright when I served him liquor some minutes ago. Did you say that you met him like this?" "I sure do now go and call 911. And tell them to come with an ambulance." "You won't run away, will you?" "Why should I run away? Oh my goodness! You must be insane to think I do this." "You must come with me, Sir? I won't leave here without you." "Don't be a jerk. I can run away now if I want. Now be a doll and go and call 911. This man is losing a lot of blood." "He is dead. No need to hurry the
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW FRAMED UP
In truth, nothing is hidden under the sun. Even though the police promised their utmost secrecy, the reason for Andrew's arrest soon became trending news, and it was followed by Isabella's escapades. And in a few days, the city of Orange County was soon buzzing with the news of the murderous prince and his nymphomaniac sister.Since Mr Elizabethan has ordered Andrew not to step into the office until all the mess is cleared, he decided to spend his days indoors and avoid all the friends and sympathizers who come to visit his family. Dressed in short pyjamas and an armless shirt, Andrew seat on one of the cushions in his room and gaped like a lost kitten. When the door to his room was knocked from the other side, he jerked awake, stared at the door and mumbled, "Come inside." Jasmine led two officers in a black and white police uniform into Andrew's room. She pointed at some chairs beside Andrew and let out, "Please sit over there." "Thank you, Jasmine-. Hello, Andrew. We were inform
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW GOT CAUGHT IN THE MESS
After passing through their long corridors, Andrew emerged at the grassland in front of the Villa. His eyes darted around the large compound and then fell on Isabella. Dressed in a long gown, Isabella sat on a chair, and was operating her laptop computer when Andrew walked closer to her and let out, "Hello, big sister." "Hi, Andrew. I was about to call you. Please sit down." Andrew sat on the chair beside Isabella, then looked into her eyes and asked, "Why did you want to call for me?" "I will be acting as the general manager until you can clear your names." "Oh... Is it all about the post of a general manager?" "What are you talking about?" "My set-up. Did you frame me up so that you can resume your duty as the general manager or did you have any other reasons for this? Or maybe you need someone to take the blame for your reckless lifestyle?" Isabella's smiling face immediately becomes angry when Andrew accuses her of setting him up. She sprang to her feet, raised her arms an
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW THE GOLDEN RULE OF SURVIVING
"Where have you been, Jackson?.. What happened to you that made you disappear for a whole week?" "I lost everything, Andrew. I lost the car, the money you gave to me, and Jasmine's money. Everything is gone." "Relax and tell me what happened." "I don't know what happened. I woke up disoriented some days ago, and everything is gone." "What are you talking about, Jackson?" "I think I am still disoriented. All I know is that I woke up from a deep sleep, and found some blood on my hands and some men who claimed they had to take everything for their mouth to be sealed." "Sealed... What did you mean?" "I had subconsciously killed someone, Andrew. I saw the video, and it was real. I slashed his throat with a very sharp dagger and then giggled with contentment, but I can swear that is either I am in a trance, or under the influence of a bad drug." "Where are you?" "Arkansas city. Though I don't know my precise location." "Did you have your passport with you?" "Yes. But I don't have
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW PLAYING WITH FIRE
Cleveland is right. Everything always seemed important to Jasmine. As long as Cleveland could remember, Jasmine had dabbled with things that didn't concern her, and it was a miracle that she was still breathing. Being born into the house of a wealthy family didn't stop the adventurous lady from living a fun-filled life, and her charisma made her one of the most admirable ladies in Orange County. Her popularity is not limited to the elites alone. She was known even among those who dealt in the dark world. The drug peddlers, the assassins, and the political thugs. All of them seemed to have heard of her or connected with her during their nefarious journey in life. After her conversation with Cleveland, Jasmine drove into a street that was filled with stoners with misty eyes. "Welcome to downtown, this is where you will meet the bad and the ugly of Orange County. And the fact that Daly's murder takes place close to here made me believe the murderers will visit here," Jasmine mumbled,
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW DIED AND WOKE UP
Back in the villa, Andrew, Jasmine and Mirinda were seen sitting on the grassland. "Who defaced your car with such obscene words?" Miranda asked. "Someone who knows where we are, and what we are doing there. Did you think Daly's assassins were still around?" Jasmine asked. Andrew bobbed his head in reply. He breathed out loud and mumbled, "His killers were still downtown, and I am sure they trailed us down to White's lair. Did you think we have put him in harm's way?" "No. White can take care of himself. We should worry about you, and how to clear your name." "I am at a loss, Jasmine. What can I do to catch those guys ?" "Is there anyone from Arkansas who may want to hurt you?" "No, Jasmine. Except for the O'Connor family, I don't have any known enemy in Arkansas." "Did you think Ajay may be responsible for this? He seemed pissed off with you when we last met." "Who is Ajay?" Miranda who seemed to be left out of the discussion asked. "Ajay is the heir to Brian's wealth. He
THE LOATHSOME SON-IN-LAW ARREST
Andrew's dreams over the night were filled with torture and screams, and he up with a disoriented brain the following morning. After having a hot shower, and getting dressed in a brown suit and pants. Andrew stepped out of his room and walked towards the villa's main parlour. A young guard in a blue uniform bowed at the sight of the grimly-looking man and mumbled, "Good morning, prince. The police are here to see you." Andrew smiled and waved at the guard. He increased his stride, whistled softly and arrived inside the parlour. My Elizabethan sat on the chair facing the door, and beside him sat Isabella, followed by Mirinda. And at their front sat three menacingly looking officers. "Good morning, Dad." "Welcome, Andrew. These three gentlemen are here to see you, but I told them to wait till you wake up," Elizabethan mumbled, grinned at Andrew, and gestured to him to come and have a seat at the empty chair beside Miranda. "Good Morning, Sir. We have some questions to ask you

THE HYPOCRISY OF MEN
A year later, Andrew had almost forget about his estranged queen, and only the vacant position of the queen keeps Jasmine's memory fresh in his brain. During the chiefs meeting one late night, the chief chamberlain cleared his throat and muttered, “When is our kingdom having a new queen? It’s over a year since Queen Jasmine left our palace.” “The chief chamberlain just spoke my mind,” An older chief in a white regalia let out. “ As our custom demand, the throne of the queen must not be vacant more than twelve months. We must choose another queen as soon as possible.” Andrew Inhale louder and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. “I can’t just make a random woman my queen. I need to first find a woman that I like, fall in love with her and then choose her. Don’t you think this is a long process that can’t be achieved in a few months.” “We all know this, your highness,” Another chief in a blue regalia and extra large hat mumbled. “We have all think this through and decided to choose Andrea

ACTING ALL SWEET
Jasmine barged into Andrew's chamber one night and met him staring at some family photos. “You don’t bother to check on me since Andrea arrived.”Andrew offered a sardonic smile and gestured to her to come closer.“I’m so sorry. You have been acting cold and making it difficult to talk to you.”Jasmine fixed her eyes on Andrew's face as she stepped closer and stood beside him. “You know why am angry, yet you keep doing the same thing to drive me to anger... Did I do wrong by marrying you?”With an innocent smile pasted on his face, Andrew shakes his head sideways and asked, “What did I do wrong? You have been avoiding me since Andrea arrived in the Palace.”“You know what you did, Andrew. So stop acting all sweet.”“I only knew Andrea’s presence here is not agreeable to you. But as you already know, she is the mother of my heir and I can’t stop her from visiting her only son.”“Oh!” Jasmine exclaimed. “Are you shaming me because I haven’t given you a child or you just hated me?”

A MATTER RELATING TO THE HEART
The legal battle was tougher than Andrew had imagined. But at last, Jackson was given the option of parole only after five years and a commendable behavior. Though it wasn't exactly what Andrew wanted. Yet still, he was glad that he was able to reduce his punishment. A year later, Andrew was attending to some political guests when he was informed of Ajay's arrival in his palace. "Take him to my private chamber. I will be with him in a few hours." He quickly dismissed his guests and rushed to attend to his childhood friend. "What brought you to my palace at this time of the night? I thought you had gone to Arkansas City for the Yuletide holiday." "Yes, I just came back some hours ago," A smile appeared on Ajay's face as he muttered," Andrea is back at the O'Connor's villa." "Oh! Why doesn't she come to me?" "She can't. She knows that you are happily married and she won't like to be a distraction to you or your wife." "Married, yes. But not happily… Do you have her new mobile n

LOVE IS NOT ENOUGH
Jacob was found dead in his room the following morning. As expected, Jackson was arrested for the murder of Teddy. During the interrogation, he refused to mention Andrew's name and insisted it was an accident. Nevertheless, he was found guilty of manslaughter and was sentenced to ten years imprisonment. Though Andrew was happy that he had avenged his father's and grandfather's death, he felt sad that Jackson ended the scapegoat. But because of the sensitivity of the case, he had no choice but to sit and watch the law take its full course. A few days after Jackson's judgment, Andrew was seen gazing absent-mindedly into the sky when he heard some footsteps behind him. He turned and a smile appeared on his face at the sight of the unexpected guests. "Hi, Simpson.""My king!"Andrew stepped closer and held Simpson in a tight embrace. He then picked up his daughter, hugged her and then ruffled Jimmy and Tommy's hair and mumbled, "You guys are growing fast," He turned towards Simpson

THE POISONED RING
Andrew was right. Bad news travels faster than its counterparts. His rumour of death had reached his enemies even before Jackson arrived. Sevreachedmen were seen in a jovial mood as Jackson stepped inside a splashy large room with a blinding light. "Welcome, Jackson. We have heard of the usurper's death, and we realized this is your handwork," Jacob announced as he held Jackson in a tight bear hug. "Now that he is dead, let's see how he wants to wear the crown.""It's my pleasure to serve you, people," Jackson mumbled as he offered his hand for a shake. And he was aware of the poisoned pin as it pricked Jacob's palm. Jacob also feels a light sting and his eyes immediately gawk at the ring on Jackson's finger. "Where is the poisoned ring?" Jacob asked as he released the breath he had been holding. Seeing a different ring on Jackson's finger brought immediate relief to him. "Here… Here it is," Jackson said as he dipped his hand into the pocket of his suit and brought out the deadly

NO PERMANENT ENEMY OR FRIEND IN LIFE
Though Andrew didn't believe Jasmine's explanation. Nevertheless, he decided to let the sleeping dog lie. Yet still, this seemed to bring a bigger hole in their imperfect relationship. And the two of them live like cat and mouse for months. A year later, Andrew was still wondering why he ended up with Jasmine when he was informed of a guest awaiting him. Thinking maybe it was Andrea, he immediately asked if it was a man or a woman, and disappointment could be seen on his face when he was told it was a man. "I can't see him tonight. Take him to the guest quarters until I'm free to attend to him.""Yes, Your Highness. Though he claimed that it was very urgent and begged for your immediate attention.""What is his name?""Ajay O'Connor. He seemed to know you from your days at Arkansas City.""Send him in," Andrew mumbled. He wonders what Ajay wants with him and his curiosity makes him restless until Ajay arrives. The young man was a shadow of himself. His once smooth and shining ski

WHEN THE DESIRABLE IS NOT AVAILABLE
After their first night together, Andrew and Jasmine seemed inseparable. Though their relationship can be termed one-sided, Jasmine appeared to be happy and satisfied, and it looked like Andrew had at last forgotten his lost love. Since the royal chief won't stop disturbing him from getting married, Andrew has no choice but to propose to the excited Jasmine who immediately agrees. In truth, when the desirable is not available, the available becomes the desirable. Six months later, the pair decided to tie the knot. Their marriage was the talk of the town, and a week was declared a public holiday to celebrate the important occasions. During the royal banquet, Andrew was seated among his family and friends in a deep conversation when he noticed a silhouette of a woman who resembled Andrea. "Excuse me, please," Andrew muttered, standing up from his throne and hurried towards the outgoing lady. He ignored all the well-wishers who called out to wish him a happy married life and smiled

HISTORY WITH HIS EXCELLENCY
The sun was already glaring in the sky when Andrew woke up. After having a light meal, he decided to visit his ladies, at least for courtesy's sake. They came from far and near, and sending them home without attending to them seemed very insulting. They were put separately in different rooms, and Andrew knocked on the first door and stepped inside.A tall and shapely lady with a beautiful face stood up from the bed and walked towards him. "Good morning, my lord. I have been waiting for you since yesterday and I am glad that you finally come to visit me."The lady hugged him seductively and dragged him towards the bed in the middle of the room. But Andrew gently removed his hand and then motioned to the lady to sit down, while he sat beside her. "What is your name?""Janet, my lord.""And your profession?" "I'm a barrister and I'm working with a private company." Janet placed her palm on Andrew's chin to caress him, but Andrew held her hand, frowned and shook his head. "Take it eas

REAL BEAUTY LIES BENEATH THE SKIN
Three months later. Andrew was seen walking to and fro in his palace, and the grimace on his face showed his state of mind. His body shivered, and his eyes were cloudy. A red line shows around his eyes and a patch appears on his forehead. After yawning twice, he suddenly whirled towards the men at his back and asked, "Are you telling me she had grown wings and disappeared from the surface of the earth? I have spent millions of dollars to look for her, sent people from one end of the earth to the other side, and the result is always negative." "I'm sorry, my lord," A tall man with a large scar in between his eyes answered back. " I guess she didn't want to be found and had been evading us." "We heard she was in Orlando, and we immediately flew down there. But she must have heard of our arrival and disappeared before we reached her hideout." Andrew's frown deepened as he stared at the men on his front. "Why am I unfortunate to be surrounded by letdown people? I want a result and no
