He stared at her for a few minutes and was confused by the stupidity that he was busy expressing. "You're unbelievable." He replied and she grinned at him wickedly while making sure that the door was shut permanently to her."Now tell me, why are you here? Do you want me to plead with me but you're pretending as if you don't want to? Instead of pitting my daughter against me and claiming to be her father. Why don't you just concede defeat?" She smirked at him in annoyance mixed with a dash of gloating.Leonard went silent for a minute gathering his thoughts and searching for the best way to be able to convey his words without acting annoyed by the way she was speaking."Even you would choose me as your child's guardian. If you had done what you ought to, she wouldn't be here begging not to be with you. That says a lot about you don't you think?" He replied angrilySophie's face went flush in embarrassment but poke her chin outward just to show that she was not affected by his words. "

When Leonard and Estelle got to the office the next day, they were surprised to see a litany of workers outside but shockingly, they didn't protest like he had thought that they'd do and he commended them."Are you sure that these people are okay this time around because they aren't even attempting to make any trouble which is making me a bit afraid. Don't you think that there's a problem in the land?" Estelle panicked.Then they stared at each other for a minute before Leonard replied. As they neared the people, they saw Antonio sitting on the chair and addressing them."What's your brother playing at?" She asked him and he shrugged. He really didn't care as long as it didn't affect him.The enraptured attention they gave to the mastermind of the fall of the company was laughable. "So I urge you all to be calm, he will surely pay your salaries." Antonio changed the subject of the matter when they got closer."Coward!" Someone shouted at the workers. " You were just telling us now tha

Leonard's hands stopped midair as he received the call. He wanted to believe that it was all a lie and that his brother wasn't even waiting to ambush him but he knew that it was nothing but the truth and the only way that he could dispel all for these was to make sure that there wasn't anyone who could make sure that there was nope problem. It was meant to be the fastest and easiest way to solve a problem but he couldn't help but feel worried that lots of things were not working according to plan."Can you repeat all of these in front of him?" He asked.That was the litmus test. If they could repeat it then ye could only believe a bit but if they found it difficult to, then he'd know that something was fishy. If there was anything he hated, it was being wrong. He preferred to roll with the flow until he got the right answers, only then could he safely accuse whoever was involved. He didn't like doing something and ending up overreacting.That was the reason he was the alway the voice

There was something that was peculiar to Antonio and it was the fact that he was gifted with scheming so badly that one would almost forget that he was just a human. He knew all the people in the right places that could aid his ambitions. On one of these days, he was just trying to get out of the house when an idea struck his head. He was just acting as though he didn't also possess the ability to think thoroughly and it was very annoying then he proposed that he was going to make sure that he was able to get through with a lot of things. "Maybe I should try to win Emma over?" He thought but was met with disappointment. " That is not a good idea, she would be very quick to go tell Leonard all that was happening. At the end of the he remembered someone who had a common beef with one man that he also hated more than anything in his life and it was none other than Kelvin and Sophie! He didn't waste time in trying to locate them. He went to the office and went to his records. They had

Kelvin walked into the establishment with his hands deep into his pocket to stop his fear from showing. There was something that was stopping him from going back already because he knew that once he did, that was all for the day, there was no way that he would be able to rearrange everything back to the way they should have been. "You're welcome, just head over here!" Antonio called as he saw Kelvin looking around warily as if he was lost or something like that. There was something that was making him laugh. "Do you know that there are several people that want to have this opportunity that I'm extending to you? I just hope that you're wise enough not to allow it slip through your fingers. Anyway, when you're ready, kindly let me know." Antonio told somebody on the phone. It was the way he had expected it to be. Kelvin sat down and watched how things were going. It was almost as though there was a problem that he was supposed to solve and that he would need something to change the wa

Kelvin looked about filled with shock about what he was just hearing regarding the proposal he and Sophie submitted, why would Antonio even think something like that? "What? What do you mean? Take a look at the proposal you'd see that it's very much genuine we had no such thing in mind, " Kelvin said defensively and hurriedly, "why would you even think something like that...? ""No it's alright, " Antonio interjected, "don't even bother trying to defend yourself I completely understand. ""Understand what...? I mean that really wasn't it, " Kelvin insisted but Antonio was no longer paying any attention to what he had to say. "I understand why you would do that and I'm ready to forgive you. I'm not really annoyed after all, " Antonio. At this moment Kelvin was completely taken aback, he didn't know and couldn't understand what was going on or why Antonio was behaving strangely, if the guy knew for real that he and Sophie were truly trying to rip the company off or to do something ul

"So Kelvin, " Antonio begins after taking a sip of the drink, "before we begin this new partnership of ours I need to make sure that we're on the same page, first did you tell anyone where you were going? And I mean anyone at all we cannot afford to have anybody at our backs watching us to take note of our moves or to report us to Leonard as you know it's not something my brother would be extremely pleased with. ""No of course not, I didn't tell anybody, " Kelvin answered immediately without even thinking but then he suddenly remembered, "or wait I think I told somebody, just one person. ""What? Who was it? Who did you tell? " Antonio asked. "Sophie, I told her a bit about it before coming here but only I swear, " Kelvin replied. "Whether or not it's a bit doesn't matter at all, not even in the very least, the mere fact that you told anyone anything proves that you're not as trustworthy as I thought, and not to mention the fact that the person you told just so happens to be Sophie

"What the hell was wrong with you?! " Sophie asked Kelvin in anger when they met, "how could you go along with him? Why did you go out with him despite me telling you over and over not to even think about doing anything as stupid as that? ""I was just trying to..." Kelvin began to speak but was sharply interjected by Sophie. "You were just trying to do what exactly, despite me telling you not to even meet him at all you decided it best to perform some kind of experiment or what? You think I didn't know what I was saying or why couldn't you at least organize yourself even if your plan was to do something as stupid and as foolish as that, " she face palmed and cursed inwardly while thinking self deprecating thoughts, after all all of this was her fault she had already begun to regret raining acquainted with Kelvin, "why in the world did I end up with a fool like you, what you did was incredibly foolish and even if there's a slight chance of us getting out of here, we'd have to do so w

“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

Leonard began to go through the accounts book and began to see a large number of errors regarding the money going in and out of the firm, at this time Antonio had been arrested so it was up to him to take over the company and oversee all that was going on within it. 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. He couldn't be more angry at

Sophie paced back and forth in the place she had decided to take shelter which wasn't anywhere comfortable but was some place in the slums, her past self would never once have even imagined that she would ever have a day of such humiliation, a day when she would be trying so hard to fight a losing battle against the monster that was the law. 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
