2024-04-18 05:51:27Stiles was still in shock as he stared at the pictures in his hand wondering how this lady was truly involved in her mom's death.
The situation was intense as Jonathan Jacobs pondered on the next possible move.
"I actually anticipated this coming, but not on this scale and level."
Jonathan Jacobs said as paced around, pulling out his phone he immediately placed a call to a secured line.
The incessant unanswered ringing of the phone only added more tension to the current situation.
"Who are you calling?"
Stiles asked as he threw the pictures onto the table which made a loud thump.
"It's Jack the IT guy back at your dad's mansion."
Jonathan Jacobs said as he had the phone etched to his ear expecting a response.
"Wait my dad has an IT guy?" Stiles asked as his eyebrows furrowed in a mixture of curiosity and disbelief.
"Yes, like I said there is a lot you don't know about your dad."
"Do you know that your dad recently bought the Fleeks private airfield some months ago?"
Jonathan Jacobs said, staring at Stiles who was shocked at what he heard.
"Wait a minute, the Fleeks private airfield is the biggest airfield in the region and isn't the government interested in that property?"
Stiles asked, his voice was laced with bewilderment.
"That's the kind of power you possess when you are the only living heir to the Henderson Global Conglomerate."
Jonathan Jacobs said as he dropped the call on Jack and pocketed his phone.
"So back to the main business… since the international facial recognition database centre can't help us identify this woman, we need to devise another way to get to her."
Jonathan Jacobs' voice was barely above whispers.
Standing up and pacing around, Stiles immediately screamed, "I think I have a perfect plan on how to finally find who this woman is and her connection to my mom's murderers."
"I'm listening." Jonathan Jacobs said as he gazed at Stiles.
"This woman was photographed right?"
"Right, clearly she was photographed, if not we wouldn't have her in the picture."
Jonathan Jacobs said, trying very hard not to be sarcastic.
Stiles immediately stared at him, understanding what he did there, he simply smiled gleefully and continued.
"Since we can't find her, let's find the photographer that took this picture, I bet he or she can tell us more about how we can find this lady."
Stiles' voice was laced with authority and intelligence.
"Wow!"
"Just Wow!!!"
"I'm impressed by your smart pants… I mean your smart brain."
"Why aren't you a detective? Oh, I forgot the orphanage thing."
Jonathan Jacobs said as Stiles just stared at him.
"So how do we find this photographer?"
Jonathan Jacobs immediately asked, his voice barely above whispers.
"Easy, very easy."
Stiles said as he immediately turned the photograph upside down and copied out a number, taking his phone, he dialled the number and it began to ring.
"What the hell!"
"Where did you learn how to do that?"
Jonathan Jacobs asked, his eyebrows furrowed in bewilderment.
"I really didn't think it would work…I'm as surprised as you are right now."
Stiles said as they both waited for the phone to be answered.
Just then the voicemail kicked in…"Hi, I am not available now, please leave a message."
Stiles immediately ended the call and saved the number.
"This is good news, we are now one step ahead to finding those who killed my mom?"
Stiles said as he stared into Jonathan Jacob's eyes.
"Can I have that number?"
Jonathan Jacobs asked, his voice was barely above whispers.
"Sure." Stiles immediately forwarded the number to him.
"I will have Jack track this number, she is now our only hope of finding out what really happened to your mom that night."
Jonathan Jacobs explained as he immediately sent a text message to Jack back at the Henderson's mansion.
"Well, it's a good thing we are moving forward."
"Stiles, I would want you to have this"
Jonathan Jacobs said as he immediately handed a smart wristband to Stiles.
"What's this?"
Stiles immediately asked as he put the smart band on his wrist.
"It's a tracker in a way, I can use it to track your location anywhere in the world, as long as you have it on your wrist."
Jonathan Jacobs said it demonstrates how the device works.
"It can double down as a wristwatch by just pressing the screen once."
"It used to belong to your dad, so he wanted me to give it to you."
Jonathan Jacobs said, his voice a little bit quaky as he coughed.
Moments later, Jonathan Jacobs packed his Lamborghini Aventador and walked out to open the door for Stiles but Stiles immediately opened the door by himself and came out of the car.
"Shit, I forgot my bicycle at the Lex Suites!"
Stiles immediately screamed.
"Don't worry young master, I had it waybilled to the Thomas's while we were upstairs."
"Young master, j highly recommend you move out of the Thomas's, I really don't trust those people."
"They may be rich, but something smells fishy about them, especially their daughter Raya."
The words of Jonathan Jacobs continued ringing through the head of Stiles as he made his way up the wooden stairs to the door of the mansion.
The wooden stairs creaked under his weight as Stiles opened the door he was met with a heavy blow that sent him off his feet and rolling to the base of the stairs.
"Where have you be
en all day?"
"Why hasn't my laundry been done?!"
"You worthless piece of trash."
The voice was cold, detached and laced with disgust.

Stiles quickly turned and rushed towards it, he took his cell phone up and immediately pressed the answer button.“Hello Sophia.”Stiles spoke, his voice laced with hesitation as he brought his cell phone closer to his right ear.“Give the cell phone back to your Boss, brat.”Sophia spoke, her voice laced scornfully as she took a bit from a cupcake she ordered earlier.“NO, Sophia.”Stiles spoke, his voice laced with seriousness as he turned and gazed at the left side of the glass window.“Are you listening to me, Stiles?”Sophia’s voice crackled through the phone, sharp and cold, slicing through the tense silence in the room. The sound of her chewing, the way her words dripped with venom, made the hairs on the back of Stiles' neck rise.Stiles took a slow breath, trying to calm the knot of anxiety tightening in his chest. The weight of the conversation, of the promises made, of the mistakes weighing on him, felt heavier now that he was facing the full force of Sophia’s manipulation.

The phone rang once, twice,each ring seemed to stretch the silence longer than it should. Stiles could see the tension in Mr. Jonathan’s clenched jaw, the way his fingers tapped nervously against the screen as if the rhythm could calm him.Stiles stepped closer, his eyes narrowing in suspicion. "What did she ask you to do, Jonathan?.”

"You shouldn’t be worried about how I got the picture. You should be worried about who I’m gonna send it to next.”The clink of a cup on saucer cut through the line as Sophia gave a sharp signal to the waiter, her movements fluid and deliberate.“Raya.”Stiles muttered under his breath, turning his gaze towards Mr Jonathan. His words were barely a whisper, but the weight of them carried through the room.Mr. Jonathan’s eyes narrowed. The air seemed to grow thicker.“Yes, she loves you, and this is how you sho

Stiles slowly took the cell phone from Mr and immediately gazed at the picture that was sent to him.“WHAT!, this can't be, who sent this picture?.”Stiles asked, his voice laced with shock as he still fixed his gaze on his cell phone.“What is it, Stiles?.”Miss Laura asked as she immediately walked towards him and then took the cell phone from him, her eyes widened as she gazed at the picture.“What in the world, isn't this Miss Sasha and you kissing?.”Miss Laura asked, her gaze still fixed on Stiles’s cell phone.“Yeah, I can see that.”Stiles responded, his heart beat in anxiety as he stood and gazed at Miss Laura.“KISSING, Stiles I thought you said you have a girlfriend?.”The princess asked as she stood right next to Miss Laura and gazed curiously at Stiles.“I do, tha

Stiles smiled, a wry twist to his lips. "Every day. But... sometimes the things that bind us are stronger than our desire for freedom. And yet, it’s that longing that keeps us going. It's the hope that one day, we might find a way out.”She studied him for a moment, her expression thoughtful. "Perhaps we’re not so different, after all.”She spoke, her face marked with a little bit of a smile as she gazed at Stiles. Who immediately let out a chuckle.“Yeah, you can say that again.”Stiles spoke.The princess's smile deepened, and for a moment, there was a quiet understanding between them. The weight of their respective burdens seemed to lift, if only for a second, as they shared that brief connection. Stiles leaned back in his chair, his gaze drifting to the far side of the room, though his mind was still tangled with the princess's words.“When I heard my mother was killed, my heart was shattered and I made a promise to myself that I am gonna do everything it takes for me to find o

Sophia spoke to herself as she stood up from Miss Raya’s bed and began searching for her phone. She checked under the pillows, between the folds of the blanket, and even in the drawers of the bedside table. Finally, she spotted it on the windowsill, half-hidden behind a small potted plant. Sophia hurried over and grabbed it, checking the screen for any missed calls or messages.“Raya, you are so easily tricked, you don't deserve to be happy not at all, I will make sure you and that low life brat Stiles will never speak again.”Sophia spoke as she gazed at herself at Miss Raya’s makeup mirror.“Sophia! Are you still there?.”Miss Raya asked.Sophia snapped her head up, her heart racing as the sharp sound of Raya's voice pierced through her thoughts. "Yeah, I'm still here.”Sophia responded as she immediately took out her own cell phone from her pocket and immediately went to Rayas contact.“Ohh, okay, I will be out in a second.”Miss Raya spoke from the bathroom.“Take your time cous

Miss Raya paused, her fingers absently brushing over the fabric of her bedspread as her eyes darted to the window. For a moment, her thoughts seemed far away, her expression unreadable."I... I don't know," Miss Raya murmured, almost to herself. "It's complicated."Sophia's gaze softened, but she didn’t stop pushing."Complicated how?" She asked gently, her voice dropping just a little.Miss Raya turned, meeting her cousin's curious gaze. Her lips parted, then pressed together as if weighing her next words. She crossed her arms over her chest, a habit she picked up when trying to guard herself.“He is at work, Sophia, I don't want to disturb him while he is working, his boss might get mad at him.”Miss Raya spoke as she gazed at Sophia, whose face was curiously gazed at her.“Alright fine, I don’t want to rush it, Okay, there, I said it!” She said quietly, her fingers drumming against her arm.Sophia raised her eyebrows, leaning forward slightly, the playful gleam in her eyes shif

The princess's voice trailed off, her worry clear in her eyes. She stepped closer, watching Miss Laura and Miss Anna work with urgency.Miss Anna glanced up from the diagnostic console, her expression focused and serious. "We'll have to take the chance. But we can secure the room with defenses. If anything happens, we'll be alerted.”Miss Laura nodded in agreement as she carefully removed a damaged circuit. “We don’t have a choice. Mia is a big helper around here, fixing her is the only way to make our mission easier. We need to trust that she’ll hold up long enough.”The princess chewed on her lip, her mind racing as she weighed their options. "What about the mirror?Do we still have time to uncover its significance in all of this?"The princess asked, her tone quietly as she asked. “The mirror isn’t the priority right now. The creature is. But yes, once Mia’s back online, we’ll focus on that next.”Mr Jonathan spoke, his tone steady as he and Stiles walked out from the Storage ro
