The Billionaire's Trials 127: In A Wrong Row.
"Leo," Heaven sounded weary as she called out to him. "Heaven?," Detective Tom's eyes widened. He glanced at Leo then back to Heaven. So... This is what or who the rascal was tryna hide in the room. Why does his sixth sense keep probing him that something is fishy? Leo stood up, completely ignoring the detective's presence. One part of him was dying to know how much she heard while the other was simply worried. Seems like worrying has become a constant thing in his life these days... At least, after the whole scenario that's been going on. "You couldn't sleep?," He asked as soon as he got to her. She shook her head sideways as a response. But before he could say something, she whispered in a hoarse tone,"I... I saw mom. She was... She was lying on that bed looking all bloody and..." She choked, unable to complete her sentence. It seemed like she had cried before stepping out. Detective Tom's eyes widened when Leo suddenly pulled Heaven into a hug and wrapped his hands
The Billionaire's Trials 128: Her Secret.
"Then turn around and leave. I'm giving you twenty minutes to come back here with our lunch," Leo's tone left no room for argument. Jake grumbled lowly and turned around. As the door closed behind him, Heaven gave Leo a discerning look. "You shouldn't treat him like he's your servant. Show some respect. He should be older than you " Leo chuckled,"Did he complain? I'm not treating him like a servant. He's my friend." Heaven didn't reply to this. She simply looked around the office and then stared at the desktop on his desk. "Can I borrow this for some minutes?," She pointed at them. Leo looked at her and then nodded. He brought out his phone and just then, a picture came in. It was from Valerie. When he clicked on it, he realized that it was a picture of the dishes she has prepared for him. Noting that Leo was paying no attention to her, she walked to his system and went to the browser. Typing out a website, she inputted the log in details and as soon as she was logged
The Billionaire's Trials 129: Boss Lady (Not Edited.)
Leo clicked on the pictures to check them out but before it could load, a message came in from an unregistered number. He exited Valerie's chat and click on the new message instead. Because he had already viewed the message, it was marked read on Valerie's phone so she kept on refreshing the chat to see if he had replied or not. 'Boss, Larson mentioned that he's been snooping around and managed to find out from officer Joe that the new suspect is the mentally ill old woman he met at the doctor's house but unfortunately, no one knows her location so they haven't been able to question her. I managed to track down her location, should I send it?' Leo knew instantly that the message is from Q. He wanted to reply with a voice message but he remembered just in time that Heaven is also in the room. He resorted to sending a text instead,'Yes. And I just spoke with the detective in charge of this case. He's got some lead of an unknown Mr Hawk. Never heard of him before. But the dete
The Billionaire's Trials 130: Investigation Day One.
'Relax... Relax everyone. I'm perfectly fine. I just took a break for a few days. No need to worry so much and if you have an important message for me, send it to my inbox privately.' Heaven sat back on the swiveling chair after she had sent this message. I'm left reeling in shock. Is Heaven the boss lady they are referring to? 'Boss, take a look at this. This is what the client wants but— It's so difficult to get the appropriate design,' someone sent a message to Heaven, replying privately to the one she sent to the group. Heaven looked closely at the blueprint. I can't see anything on the screen except a pale white background with a few lines on it. Heaven moved her hands on the mouse and clicked on the cursor. The screen gradually began to bring out the theme of whatever picture it is. Just a few minutes later, I'm astounded at what I'm seeing. It seems to be the layout design of a lounge or is it a restaurant if I'm not wrong. It's a beautiful royal blue color desi
The Billionaire's Trials 131: The Old Janitor.
Detective Tom's hands flipped the pages faster. The next information displayed Hawk's personal life. It stated that he was divorced but had a child. Where is the child now? It also mentioned that he has a mother. Is his mother still alive? The remaining information was also useless to the detective because it only contained analysis about Hawk's job. Detective Tom closed the file when he reached the last page. He realized two things. There was not a single picture of Hawk in the file. There wasn't any personal, valid information about his address in the file. Did James not request for these two vital information when the file was being prepared? Besides, the file gave off the impression of Hawk having a good office relationship with his colleagues and his boss... Why then was he detained? Why did a large load of criminal records spring up on him all of a sudden? Detective Tom looked at the file in his hand. The file has caused him to reason if those criminal records of Hawk that w
The Billionaire's Trials 132: Don't Act Rashly.
The room shivered from the freezing atmosphere. The sounds of fingers tapping the keyboard grew rapidly. The officers were even more pressured to give officer Joe a satisfactory answer. They didn't dare to sit straight which ended up causing their backs to be in a stiff position. Officer Joe's eyes reddened as he panted in anger. He felt like he had just ran a 200-meters race with the way he screamed just now. He managed to calm himself and walked round the room, from one seat to the other. The officers were sweating profusely given the intense pressure his presence cast on them. Just when he was on the third row, an officer suddenly shouted excitedly. His loud voice filled with relief,"Boss, I found it!" Before officer Joe could take a step forward to the subordinate that had just spoken, another officer called out,"Me too!" Then another and another... Till every officer in the room had spoken. They all seemed to have found the location at once. Officer Joe stopped in h
The Billionaire's Trials 133: A Hidden Camera?
Detective Tom looked at Leo like he had grown double heads. "What the f* Are you saying?" He asked incredulously. "It's her right. She has to know." "But her mental state isn't really strong right now to handle all this!" Leo snapped irritably. "You know... The Heaven I used to know before all this was so tough, haughty, bratty and spoiled." Detective Tom kept quiet. "Then what happened? You guys should have left her at the hospital. The doctor mentioned it but you all were so adamant to get her out of there." Leo brushed his hair with his fingers. "That place isn't safe for her. In Fact, nowhere is safe for her. I allowed her to go out for just a few hours today and she was attacked. Almost abducted." "Attacked? Today?," Detective Tom inquired. His demeanor turned serious. "We really have to act fast. The murderer won't stop till he or she gets whatever they want." Leo's eyes snapped open. "You also think there's something this murderer wants right!?" He sounded relieved.
The Billionaire's Trials 134: The Identity Of The <Man In Mask> Accomplice.
"Don't fret," Detective Tom's calm voice broke into the chain of thoughts in Leo's head. "The camera is from the station. I bet Joe must have planted more cameras in other departments too." His voice grew lower so he literally whispered the last words. Leo's eyes turned cold. Joe is keeping tabs on the wrong person. He notices the discerning look detective Tom cast in his way. The latter was simply thinking, it's quite evident that Leo has nothing to do with James' murder. He'd also studied psychology in school and had a fair knowledge of reading people— body language. He's been observing Leo from the onset. He is willing to bet that the latter has nothing to do with the murder. The sooner officer Joe realizes this, the faster it would be for them to catch the main culprit. "Fine... Since you don't want us to go back to your office, though I'll suggest not hiding this away from her... Let's go somewhere else. You can call Jake there and I'll question him myself," Detective Tom sug
