Estelle stared utterly shocked. Who could have left this package on her doorstep, and what did they want? With trembling hands, she carefully sifted through the baby clothes, her heart pounding with fear and confusion. She searched the things trying to figure out what it meant when her fingers brushed against a piece of paper tucked inside one of the tiny onesies. With a sense of dread, she unfolded the note and read the words written in neat, blocky handwriting. "If you don't want your brother to lose his job in the company, meet me at South Haven." Estelle's breath caught in her throat as she read the words, her mind racing with questions. Who was threatening her brother, and why? And what did they want from her? Without a moment's hesitation, Estelle rushed to the gate, her heart pounding with urgency. "Did you see who dropped off this package?" she demanded, her voice frantic. The gate man shook his head, his expression troubled. "No, Miss Estelle," he replied, his voice tinge

Leonard ended the call with Estelle and returned to Ava and Emma, who were still bonding. Emma frowned at the look on his face, which was visibly disturbed. "What's going on again?" Emma asked, and Leonard hesitated, not wanting to lie to her. "There's a bigger problem," he said, and Emma sighed. "There's a rumor going around that I'm not my father's child again." Leo said, and Emma chuckled. "Does it sound funny?" "Sorry for laughing, but it does sound quite funny," Emma said. Leo's phone rang again, and he frowned. "Who is it this time?" he muttered, picking up the call. "Hey, brother, guess you liked my gift?" Antonio said from the other end, and Leo released a sly smile. He thought as much; who else would have done that if not Antonio? "You've bitten off more than you can chew, Antonio," Leo said in a low, hard voice. Antonio laughed. "Let's see what you can do about that, adiós, brother," Antonio said, then hung up the call. Leo gritted his teeth. "Antonio," he mutter

The board members, taken aback by his sudden decision, filed into the conference room, curiosity etched on their faces. Since everyone settled down, Leonard presented a folder containing all the evidence he had gathered against Antonio's deceitful actions. He was thinking about how to broach the topic.

I can't bear the thought of anything happening to her." Leonard's instincts screamed warning. "What do you know, Sophie?" he demanded, his voice firm. Sophie feigned shock with her eyes darting around. "What are you talking about, Leonard? I'm just trying to support you during this difficult time." Leonard's anger simmered just below the surface. "Don't play dumb, Sophie. You know something. Tell me the truth." Sophie's mask began to crack. "I don't know what you're talking about.

Leonard had conducted a private investigation on the location Sophie was sending the money to and he decided to go there by himself. He arrived at an old cottage house and he could easily tell this was the place because it reeked of alcohol and smoke. He tiptoed gently and was surprised to find the door a jar , he went in and saw Sophie tied to a chair. He looked at her and saw a mixture of sadness and relief in her eyes , he immediately untied her and gave her a very big long hug so tight she whimpered a little due to the pain before he realized and let go of her.

“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'

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.

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
