Since he had been in this company, nobody found it worthy to request an interview.His gaze narrowed at the journalist who was busy having the time of her life interviewing one of the most successful men she had ever been fortunate to meet and he was very displeased. "Sorry to barge in. I thought I heard voices when I walked in." He said.Leonard knowing that all he said was a complete lie, decided that he would not allow him to go without showing on the screen. "I have a meeting right now, but my brother is here to answer all your questions." He said.Antonio was angry at the way he was acting as if he was doing him a favor by allowing him to be here. "I don't..." he said but his sister placed a hand on her chest signaling him to be calm which annoyed him greatly.It was as if since Leonard arrived his sister had lost her sense of reasoning. Ha wasn't still over the stupid stunt he tri

Sophie stormed out of the office angrily, slamming the door shut behind her as she cursed underneath her breath and utters words unintelligible to anyone listening to her, the thoughts going through her mind caused her blood to begin to boil and her eyebrows furrowed. Antonio opens up the door and runs after her, telling her to wait and to be calm. "Why the freaking hell are you following me? " Sophie shouted out to him angrily when she realized it and walked even faster after taking a glance at him, but he didn't stop and also rushed after her then stretched out his hand to hold hers. But she angrily snatched her hand out of his grip and turned around with an expression filled with righteous fury. "Come on Sophie please remain calm, " Antonio pleaded with her as he looked up at the people passing by and watching them, "I know that you are angry but this isn't something to discuss in this manner...""Crap, " Sophie replied in the same angry tone of voice and her fists clenched tig

Not long After Kelvin had stepped out of the house, Sophie who was still extremely annoyed and fuming greatly stepped into her car and began to drive to the hospital to see her daughter Ava where she was admitted. And when she got to the ward room that her daughter was in, she forced herself to put on a bright smiling face and to change her demeanor, after all just because she had been having a bad day did not mean that everyone else had to experience the very same thing, and especially not her daughter. She exhaled lightly when she was certain that her expression bore no trace of what was actually going through her mind and then she pushed the door open gently. Ava was awake already at this time and looked like she was a whole lot better, by Ava's side was Emma watching her quietly. As she laid her eyes on Emma it could be seen on her face how much her expression quickly changed into one laced with jealousy, and the anger she had hidden under seemed to be fighting to come out to

Leonard got to the hospital late at night, but even the night shift seemed a lot busier than he had anticipated. I found his way through the crowd of people and got to the hallway that led to his daughter’s private ward.‘God, I hate hospitals,’ he thought to himself and creased his nose before heading into her ward. It was already past eleven at night, and he wasn’t expecting a child to be up, but Ava was not your average child, he knew that there was every possibility that she had tried to stay awake, waiting for him, but when he opened the door as gently as possible, he was surprised to see her cuddling her teddy bear, deep in sleep. Leonard smiled and walked into the hospital ward and dropped his bag, loosened his tie and sat down in the chair close to the door. There was another chair in the ward, next to the bed, but Emma was seated in it, with one of Ava’s story books in her hands as she slept.‘Even Emma is more of a mother to our own daughter than you Sophie,’ he thought to

Leonard and Emma stepped out of the vehicle at almost exactly the same time, both of them feeling equally exhausted from the journey and from the trip in general, the business trip was no small matter and it lasted three work days with the two of them being extremely busy for a larger portion of the days. The ride back had been a very strange and awkward one, not to mention as the two of them had different thoughts weighing down on their minds which highly prevented them from speaking and caused a great wave of awkwardness. Leonard was busy with thoughts about the company and about the deal he had made on the business trip, as well as thoughts about what to do concerning the sisters Emma and Sophie. He knew very well without the help of a fortune teller or a soothsayer that Sophie, his potential ex wife was not very pleased with the fact that he had taken her sister Emma on the trip instead of her, which was something that he considered highly illogical putting into consideration t

Estelle walks into Leonard's office with a rather gloomy expression on her face, written clearly as the result of the meeting they had before along with the follow up email. Leonard who was not entirely sure about what had happened and had not yet received the message was rather lost though and looked at her before he inquired, "what is it? ""You remember that contract that we hoped to secure the other day? " Estelle asked him and Leonard at once took a pause from what he was doing on his laptop and turned his attention to her unrivalled. "Which contract do you mean Estelle, what are you referring to? " Leonard asked solemnly, his expression saying everything that one needed to know about his state of mind at that moment, while he had made himself to stop thinking about Sophie and the little run in that he and Emma had with her not too long before, it did not stop him from feeling hurt and it did not rid him of the exhaustion that he already had most of the time in his back and in

“Hahaha, very funny" Antonio laughed hysterically, glaring over at his brother from the corner of his eyes.“And when exactly did you become a police officer that you think you have the right to tell me to freeze?” Antonio scoffed with malice in his voice.“I always knew you were dumb-witted but this is a whole new low,” he laughed again uncontrollably. “Do you think being a cop is transferable or something? Just because you’re an in-law to one?” Antonio asked sarcastically, but Leonard left Antonio's words hung in the air unanswered while giving time for the police to surround the house. "Leonard, Leonard, Leonard, " Antonio called out his name, his teeth making ‘tsk-tsk’ sounds as he shook his head in disapproval.“You amaze me sometimes, you know brother?” he continued. "Always thinking you were better than everyone else and had it all together but we both know you never did.” He said while he laughed moving towards Estelle but she pushed back from him. “Even taking our sister'

Leonard frantically looked through the CCTV cameras at the venue of the wedding, his face was beaded with sweat but he somehow managed to remain calm compared to the rest of them he was the one who was calm the most. The day before which was the last day before the wedding he had spoken with Estelle so how was it that she had just gone missing on the day of her wedding? How could she have just vanished into thin air without a word of warning? It had been a couple of hours already but the family wasn’t in a hurry to let the media or the public in general know anything about all that had happened, at least not until they got the bearing back together and had figured out at least something about what was going on, could she have run away on her wedding? That didn’t seem feasible, particularly because of how happy she was during the preparation, she was truly excited to be with Silas, but at the same time, she was afraid that something would happen and perhaps as a cruel joke played on

But what he was seeing in the books did not put him at ease at the very least, on the contrary,, it made him feel rather disturbed, what exactly had Antonio been doing for so long in the company, what had he been spending so much money on that he didn’t care about the losses it incurred so frequently?He asked himself inwardly and then with a sigh he stood up and decided to question the people who worked for Antonio starting with Alice.She was the only one he actually trusted to tell the truth about what was really going on in the company and every office, as for the others he could not exactly be certain which ones among them were still in contact with or still willing to work for Antonio.

And as it was in that moment this monster was mere minutes away from finding her and choking her to death, as she pondered she recalled what Antonio had said before, both what he said about having more affluence and what he told her to do then with Emma, but it was as she thought about it that she shook her head and decided not to, she was already in hot enough soup, she didn't need to add any more fire. She really didn't know everything about Antonio or what his endgame really was, but one thing she knew that she could count on if she decided to work with him was the fact that somebody was going to have to die, it was just a matter of who, and

The next dayAs Leonard looked up at the exterior of the company's building, memories started flooding in, he began feeling a sense of nostalgia.The company was a sleek and modern marvel! It appeared as a gleaming giant, its facade a vast expanse of silver-gray glass and steel that seemed to stretch up to the very sky. The entrance was marked by a bold, oversized logo in a bright, electric blue color that seemed to pulse with energy. The walls of the building appeared to be made of a shimmering glass material that reflected the surrounding light, giving it a sense of depth and dimensionality.Overall, it was one damn of a cutting-edge technological company and Leonard couldn't imagine how Antonio might have managed to ruin it.As he climbed the wide stairs leading to the entrance, he cleared his throat trying his best to ignore the nervousness he was feeling.Questions like–would he even be able to fit in? What if no one wanted him there? What if he couldn't catch up and missed ever

A week laterIn the courtroom, filled with a shimmering sense of hope, Leonard stood in his small wooden cubicle before the judge.Everyone present, expecting nothing but good judgment. Through the thick lenses of the judge looking down on everyone from her high seat, with a hand she picked up her gavel with one hand and struck it twice on the gavel stone.“Leonard, you are hereby acquitted and released from all your charges,” she declared with a sounding voice as light applause began to fill the room.As Leonard made his way out of the court, a whole flock of people including the press, news reporters, broadcasters, the media were outside waiting for Leonard to emerge and once they got sight of him, they all came running to him at once.Lenoard tried his best to stay composed as multiple cameras and mics were getting shoved in his face. “Leonard, look here!” One reporter said, “No, Leonard look here,” another blurted out. “So you were really accused?”The questions kept rolling and

Estelle adjusted herself on the seat provided before Leonard, sitting upright so she could get a clear view of her brother's face through the security glass partition.“What do you mean by that Leonard? You don't want to work for the company anymore when you come out?” Estelle asks, trying to clarify.Leonard noded, “Just as I said Estelle, I don't think going back to that company is what I want to do.”“Don't think like that Leo,” she started in a convincing voice. “I mean, the company's faith depends on you. Speaking of which, it has already run down significantly, although we haven't run into any debt. What I'm saying is if you leave now, it will be in total shambles.”Leonard looked away for a moment sighing and if he thought Estelle would give up so easily then he was mistaken.“I honestly don't understand how Antonio is running that company, people literally loved you Leonard! In fact it was those same people who advocated for you to be released after all the evidence came out a

In the boardroomThe atmosphere in the boardroom was thick with anticipation. Silas, a commanding presence with an air of authority, stood at the head of the table, his eyes scanning the faces of the gathered board members.“Thank you all for coming,” Silas began, his voice steady and firm. “Today, we address the matter of the DNA test results.”He looked over at the corner where the police officers he was here with today stood. And with a flicker of his wrist, one police officer came forward, handing him over a brown envelope.Silas took the brown envelope, bringing out the documents within, lifting it up in the air so everyone present in the boardroom could see so there'd be no chances of anyone accusing him that he'd slip anything in.“May a neutral person come forward?” Silas announced and a junior officer appeared before him from the crowd. He hands the documents over to him. “Distribute them.” With that the junior officer nodded, beginning from the first person, he went one aft
