“I tracked down the phone Lily was receiving calls for and guess what?” Smart asked as Keith and Camila looked at each other.“It landed at Abraham Corner's hand,” Camila said happily.“Sadly no. It's in the hands of a madman,” Smart said, shocking them both.“What?” Keith and Camila shouted at the same time.“Yes and the name that was registered on the phone belongs to a dead man. So, there's no way of proving that Abraham Corner was responsible for anything,” Smart said as Keith gave a wry chuckle.“I can see what Abraham did there. Nice plan,” Keith said.“So, the only way for us to expose Abraham is if Lily confesses,” Camila said as Smart nodded.“Yes, and even if she does, there won't be any evidence to back it up and we'll still lose the case,” Smart said.“Abraham really planned this all out. Sheila was right. It wasn't over yet,” Keith said, pondering on what he would do.“Maybe, if Lily rots in prison, she would be forced to talk,” Camila said.“Well, it's there for the taki

Sheila entered her room as she stood behind the door with a sigh. She wouldn't lie and say she wasn't scared. She knew Abraham was capable of so many things. She also knew that she had crossed her boundaries today and might die. She quickly locked the door, then bolted it because she knew he had a spare key. She quickly removed her clothes, went into the bathroom and showered. When she was done, she turned off the faucet, doing her normal routine before climbing her bed, waiting for the inevitable.“Execute the next plan. Make sure everything goes according to plan,” Abraham said on the phone as he disconnected the call, tossing his phone on the table. He stood up, grabbing his glass of whiskey, going close to the window. He had a murderous glint, while looking at the moon. “No one, absolutely no one goes against me. I'll tear them apart,” he muttered to himself, laughing. It was the type of laugh that sends shivers down someone's spine. Not a good shiver but a scary one. His phone ra

“Are you ready for work?” Camila asked, handing Keith's tie over to him. “Thank you. I was really looking for this,” he said, trying to knot it. “Need help?” Camila asked as Keith nodded. She stood up from the bed, standing in front of him, helping him knot his tie. “Sheila texted. Said she almost lost her life,” Keith informed as Camila furrowed her brows. “What do you mean she almost lost her life?” Camila asked, fixing Keith's tie. “She said Abraham almost killed her. He wasn't just threatening her, he actually meant to kill her. Banging at her door after trying to open it and finding out that she bolted it. It was really a scary experience for her,” Keith said as Camila felt less concerned. “Well, that's how she made her bed, so she'll have to lie on it. If she dies, I won't even be shocked or surprised. I won't even be bothered. I'll take it as one of the biggest problems in our lives that has been eliminated. She was the beginning of your problems after all,” Camila s

Keith arrived at the office with his workers greeting him. He responded with a nod, proceeding to his office. He met Chris on the way.“Good morning Chris,” he greeted as Chris smiled.“Good morning sir. Hope you had a good time. I mean I know you'll surely have a good night,” Chris said, laughing nervously as Keith shook his head.“Back to work Chris,” Keith said, leaving for his office.“Oh, yes sir. Before I forget, a man came looking for you. He said he wouldn't leave until he has seen you,” Chris said as Keith looked confused.“Who is this man and what did he say his name was?” Keith asked as Chris shook his head.“He didn't say. He said he would only speak with you and no one else,” Chris said as Keith nodded.“So, where is he now? Is he in my office?” Keith asked.“No sir. I kept him in the waiting room. We didn't want to leave him alone in your office in case he is a spy,” Chris said as Keith was impressed.“Good thinking Chris. Send him to my office. I'll see him now,” Keith

Keith was pacing around when the door opened with Camila rushing in.“I heard you call and came as fast as I could,” Camila said, panting as Keith nodded.“What's going on? You sounded urgent and serious on the phone,” Mrs Genevieve said, coming in.“Because it's really urgent and serious,” Keith responded.“Who did you say came to see you?” Camila asked.“Ian Sinclair,” Keith answered as Camila and Mrs Genevieve looked at each other before looking at him. “Whatever you're guessing is right. He's a lawyer and he works for the government,” Keith told them.“We know that but what we don't know is why he came to see you,” Camila said.“Yes. Camila is right. I hope the government doesn't want you to work with them. I wouldn't agree. Those cunning people,” Mrs Genevieve said begrudgingly.“That would even be better. What they want this time is worse,” Keith said as both women were on alert.“What do they want?” They said in unison.“They want the land I took from the Hockings. The governme

“Did you get my present? I hope you liked it,” he said as Sheila came closer to him.“How could you do such a thing to my parents? How dare you?” She asked through gritted teeth.“Ah ah, I wouldn't do that if I were you. I have people who would do anything at my command. You wouldn't want me to order your parents to be killed here. If you act recklessly, this might be the last time you ever see your parents,” Abraham said with a cheerful smile.“You're really delusional and mad,” Sheila said as he smiled more.“I couldn't agree more,” Abraham said, not feeling bothered. Sheila clenched her fists almost drawing blood. She was still looking at Abraham when they both heard footsteps. They both turned to see Camila running towards them. Abraham furrowed his eyes, looking at Sheila while folding his arms. Sheila frowned, stopping Camila from moving forward.“Where is Agnes?” Camila asked, worriedly as Sheila scoffed.“Agnes?” Sheila asked. “Girl, what the fuck are you doing here? You bette

An hour had passed and yet, her parents weren't awake yet. She sat down feeling tired already. Keith checked his watch. He had a frown on his face. He seriously didn't want to be here, but Camila had to care for his ex mother in law. He looked at her and saw how comfortable she was sitting patiently.“You two can go. You don't have to be here. Actually, seeing the two of you here is making my day go bad and it's taking a toil on me,” Sheila said but Keith and Camila ignored her, doing what they were doing. “So disrespectful,” she muttered with a scoff as Max stood next to her.“The police found the CCTV of the house. We're going to find the people that did this and make sure they are punished,” Max said as Sheila sighed. All this was making her sick. She could feel a headache forming. She looked around, finding out that Abraham wasn't around. She stood up, signaling Keith and Camila to follow her. Camila looked at Keith who shrugged as they both followed her.“I'm sure you're happy th

“Abraham is behind this,” Sheila dropped as Keith and Camila turned to look at her. “I'm not sure but I think so,” she added.“What makes you think so?” Keith asked.“Some weeks ago, we went to the country club and he spoke to Asher Garfield,” Sheila said “Who is that?” Keith asked as Camila looked at her, waiting for an answer.“Oh my God! I can't believe you two right now. How can you not know Asher Garfield? I can't believe you two don't know him. He's the president's right hand man and I think he's close to Abraham,” Sheila said.“Is there anyone Abraham doesn't know?” Camila asked as Sheila noticed someone's shadow near the door.“We need to… shut up! I really do not want to hear anything from the both of you,” Sheila shouted, cutting Keith up. Camila and Keith wondered why the sudden change of attitude. Sheila signaled at the door. “I have had it enough with you two. The only reason I'm not embarrassing you right now is because this is a hospital. Don't take my silence for gran

"Abraham Corner, you are hereby sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole for the murder of Mrs. Genevieve. You are further sentenced to an additional 25 years for the murder of Adam Kurt and 15 years for the coercion and unlawful imprisonment of your employees. These sentences will run consecutively. May this serve as a reminder that no one is above the law." The courtroom erupted into noise as reporters shouting questions, spectators murmuring in shock, and some even clapping in approval. Keith turned to Camila, who sat in silent disbelief, her eyes welling with tears."It’s over. You’re free." Keith said softly as Camila looked at Evelyn, who stood tall and calm, a small but victorious smile on her face.The judge banged his gavel to restore order."Bailiff, escort the defendant out of the courtroom. Court is adjourned." The judge said as the bailiffs approached Abraham, he turned to Sheila, his face dark and menacing."You think you’ve won? This isn’t over."

"You’ll soon be free." He said as Camila nodded, her lips trembling as she smiled. Tears welled in her eyes, but she quickly brushed them away, determined to stay strong.Sheila walked to the center of the courtroom, holding a remote control for the court’s audiovisual system."Your Honor, with your permission, I would like to present a video to the court. Before I play it, I need to explain how I came into possession of this video." Sheila said to the judge. Mr. Nolan immediately rose to his feet."Objection, Your Honor. This is highly irregular. The prosecution cannot…" The judge held up a hand, cutting him off."Mr. Nolan, sit down. Ms. Hockings, you may proceed." The judge said firmly."Thank you, Your Honor." Sheila said, nodding as She turned to face the courtroom, her voice steady and commanding."This video was obtained during my investigation into Mr. Corner’s workplace. It was anonymously sent to me by an employee who could no longer remain silent. The footage, captured by a

"Overruled. Ms. Warren, proceed." The judge said firmly."Thank you, Mr. Wallace. No further questions." Sheila said, turning back to James. She called two more witnesses, each echoing similar stories of abuse, threats, and control. By the end, the jury looked visibly disturbed, and the courtroom buzzed with tension.Finally, Sheila took a deep breath and held up a document."Your Honor, I refer to Section 12.5 of the state constitution, which condemns any individual who uses power, intimidation, or violence to suppress others. Mr. Corner’s actions, as described by these witnesses, align perfectly with this behavior. This is not just a man who mistreats employees. This is a man capable of anything, including the crimes he’s charged with." She said as the courtroom erupted in whispers."What the actual hell! This man is a beast." Smart said, whispering loudly to Duncan."Focus, Smart. This is just the beginning. Let’s see how his lawyer responds." Duncan said, nodding grimly."Your Hon

"Your Honor, members of the jury, today we will uncover the truth about the heinous deaths of Mrs. Genevieve and Mr. Adam Kurt, the accused’s secretary. The evidence points clearly that Abraham Corner killed both of them . While Mr. Corner has denied any involvement, his actions, motives, and the surrounding circumstances tell a different story." She paused, turning slightly toward Abraham at the defense table. "Let’s begin by calling Mr. Corner to the witness stand.""Mr. Corner, please take the stand." The judge said as Abraham stood, his movements deliberate and unhurried. Dressed immaculately in a tailored suit, he exuded confidence as he made his way to the witness stand. His face was unreadable, a mask of composure.After being sworn in, he sat down, clasping his hands lightly on the armrest."Mr. Corner, let’s start with your relationship with Mrs. Genevieve. Were you friends? Business partners?" Ms Harding asked, approaching him with a calm but piercing intensity."Neither. We

Abraham's lawyer came to see him in prison with threatening news.“No one is on your side. They are all against you,” the lawyer said as Abraham clenched his fists.“Make sure you do everything in your power to get me out of here. I can't be here,” Abraham said as the lawyer nodded.“I'll do everything possible. We have a hearing tomorrow. We'll make sure you win the case,” the lawyer said as Abraham sighed.The next day, Sheila prepared for the initial hearing. She wasn't going to miss it for anything. She was going to follow everything so they don't end up losing. While she was preparing, she suddenly felt nauseous. She ran to the bathroom and threw up.“Are you okay? What's going on?” Duncan asked, going to her but she refused his help.“I'm fine. What are you doing here?” She asked him as he felt bad.“Just wanted to check up on you,” he said.“I'm fine,” she said, walking out.The courtroom is tense as Abraham was brought in. Dressed sharply, he carries an air of confidence des

They searched through drawers, cupboard for over an hour but still didn't get anything while Abraham was attending to his guests. Adam came forward to say something when the atmosphere changed. Abraham wondered what the problem was until he saw Adam. He clenched his jaw, getting angry.“I have something to discuss with you, sir,” he said as Abraham dragged him to a corner “Are you trying to get me angry?” Abraham asked.“Sir, I need to report something to you,” Adam said but Abraham wasn't having any of it.“Get out. Don't show your face till this is over. Don't you have any shame? Seriously, I'm already getting pissed,” Abraham said, walking away.“Guys, you need to get out of there. Abraham is coming your way,” Riley said as Smart ran out immediately. Keith found a secret room. Just as he was about to check it out, Duncan held him in his hand.“We need to leave now. Abraham is coming,” Duncan said as Keith nodded.“Okay. Let's go,” Keith said as they left. When Abraham came inside

“Are you boys ready?” Duncan asked, joining the team as Smart scoffed.“We're not boys. We're grown ass men. One of us has a child while you're still in a complicated relationship because you chose to while I'm just being myself,” Smart pointed out.“He is not in a complicated relationship. He just isn't into any relationship. I heard Sheila broke it off with him. She said she was no longer interested in his back and forth relationship,” Keith said as Smart laughed.“That serves him right,” Smart said as he and Keith fistbumbed.“Guys, I'm right here,” Duncan said, announcing his presence.“You are? We don't see you,” Smart said as Keith laughed while Duncan rolled his eyes.“Whatever. Everything is ready and planned out. We just have to enter his house without being noticed and get right back,” Duncan said as they nodded.“Then let's do this. Costumes check, the guys who would keep watch, check and what again?” Smart asked as Riley came in.“Your ears and eyes, check,” Riley said.“W

New evidence has surfaced, and it challenges everything we thought we knew about this case. Could it be that Camila Joffrey, accused of murder, has been wrongfully implicated? How is it that Mr. Corner’s secretary is now tied to the crime scene? Was this connection overlooked, or deliberately concealed? And what about Mr. Corner himself? Does he truly have no knowledge of this development, or is he feigning ignorance to sway public opinion in his favor? As the investigation continues, we are committed to uncovering the truth behind these mysteries. Stay with us as we dig deeper into this unfolding story. Reporting live, this is Nicki Samson.Keith turned off the television as he leaned on the table, folding his hands.“So, what next?” Smart asked.“We will investigate his office. Vincenzo and I,” Sheila said, resting her back on the chair. She could feel a headache coming and she felt like vomiting.“I want you three to do something for me,” she said as Duncan turned to her.“What is

"Yeah, I saw him leave too. He was driving really fast, and he didn’t seem like he was in a hurry to get anywhere. It was... suspicious." A neighbor said as whispers were heard."The court will now take a recess. We will reconvene at 3 o'clock to continue these proceedings. Please remember that all court rules and decorum remain in effect during this time. Court is adjourned." The judge said as he struck the gavel.The courtroom is tense, the murmur of the spectators subsiding as the defense lawyer Sheila Hockings, rises to her feet, ready to call the next witness. She gestures toward Adam, who was seated at the witness stand. Sheila moves forward, poised and determined, as the jury watches attentively.“Remind me why I love her again,” Duncan said as Smart looked at him.“I don't know. I think you don't know your problem,” Smart said. Duncan pretended like he didn't hear what his brother said."Mr. Daniels, you are aware that you have been linked to the victim, and to the crime scene
