Ethan drove really fast, he soon found the escaping man running into an alley. Ethan immediately stopped the car, got down from it, and without even locking the car door, he gave the man a hot chase. The man's steps had declined as he felt he had outran Ethan and his men, he had no idea that Ethan was already few meters behind him and was catching up on him.He paused to catch his breath when he saw Ethan."Oh shit!" He exclaimed and began to run again.Ethan didn't give him a chance to escape, he had a medal for being the fastest runner in high school, so catching up with the man was not a difficult thing for him.He caught up with him just at the end of the alley. The man turned to him, seeing he was already trapped. He swiftly brought out a dagger from his pocket."Do not come any closer." He growled at Ethan, moving backwards."Who are you?" Ethan questioned, moving towards the man as he moved backwards."Stay away. I would stab you with this dagger in my hand and I mean it." The
Ethan went into the building to access it and to make sure everything was going well. Just as he was coming down the stairs, he got a call from someone. It was Valerie."Hey," he said, trying to sound like he was in a good mood."Hey, Ethan. Where are you?" Valerie asked, over the phone. Ethan then remembered she had gone to her family's house."I don't know, I'm out... somewhere." He responded."Somewhere?" Valerie questioned."Yes, somewhere." Ethan added."Uhh.... doesn't that 'somewhere' have a name?" Valerie questioned."Why are you interrogating me? I went somewhere, okay? You left for your family's house and I didn't say anything about it, you really don't have to say anything about my own movements." Ethan responded and Valerie scoffed."Really dude? I am at your house, and that is why I called to know where you are. Stop acting so petty." Valerie said and hung up the call.Ethan halted at the stairs and realized he had indeed been petty. He quickly rushed down and went to his
Renee gave Valerie a free chair to sit in so she could get her makeup done."I don't understand, Renee." Valerie said."Uhh, what don't you understand?" Renee asked, with a wide grin on her face."I don't know...I mean, you are being so nice to me...it's good though, but it is kinda weird, don't you think so?" Valerie stuttered and Renee laughed."We are adults sis, and I listened to what you said to me yesterday and I believe you are right. You know, unlike you, I always listen to dad, you know, I follow his rules, I try to impress him, and right now, I actually believe you are very very right. And now, looking back, I now see that I am not fulfilled, I am not satisfied with how my life is going, but then, I have gone too far. I only hope I stop living by father's rules." Renee said. Valerie could see traces of sadness in Renee's eyes. She leaned forward and took her hand in hers."It's fine sis, the fact that it is late doesn't mean you can't change anything. And I am glad you list
Valerie began to feel sweaty where she stood at the balcony with Renee who was engaging her in different conversations."Are you okay?" Renee asked, noticing Valerie's restlessness."Yes...uh...no. I don't feel so good." Valerie responded in between gasps.Renee raised a brow but she didn't move, neither did she try to find a solution to Valerie's problem.Valerie soon began to feel dizzy."Is there a seat or something?" She asked. Renee looked around."No, there is none. Why do you ask? What is going on?" She asked in reply."I don't know. I don't really understand how I feel. I need to sit down, I feel dizzy." Valerie said. She crouched, placing her hands on her knees for support."Did you eat something before coming? You always skip your breakfast Valerie, I warned you about that so many times." Renee said. "Sure, I ate...I did eat." Valerie gasped.Renee rolled her eyes in a nonchalant manner."Here, let me take you in. I think you just need some rest." Renee said. She held Valer
Renee stayed in her room, not wanting to look suspicious after what she had done. She hoped Jason had received what she sent to him and everything was going according to plan.After a few minutes of staying in her bedroom, she decided to step out a bit to join the event and also to access the state of things.When she descended the stairs, some of the guests surrounded her."Oh my goodness, Renee. I love your dress. Why have you been hiding it?" Someone asked."Yeah, exactly. Where the hell have you been? It is your engagement party." Another girl said."I mean, who shies away from her own engagement party. You wanted us to be here and here we are, right on time, but you have just chosen to remain upstairs. I even met with Jason earlier, he could not give a tangible response to your whereabouts. I was beginning to think something was wrong." The first girl said and Renee almost rolled her eyes. Why wouldn't they mind their own business?"Jason and I are fine. You said you had a conve
Renee could not believe what was going on, she blinked a lot of times trying to confirm if her eyes were deceiving her, But she kept seeing the same thing. That was not what she had planned. How had Ethan ended up in the bedroom with Valerie? She immediately stood up and made for the door, as she opened it, she bumped into Jason who was just about to come in."Hey." She said nervously, standing at the door to prevent Jason from entering inside. She couldn't let him see the footage. Good thing he didn't even try to come in."Hey, I was just about to come call you but I can see you are already on your way out. I told you yesterday to not be nervous right? I am in this with you, let's go." Jason said with a smile."Oh....um yeah. I was just about to come down,but could you give me a moment, I think I want to pick up something." Renee said.Jason raised a brow at her, he was about to ask her another question, but then he changed his mind."Okay, sure. I would wait for you downstairs. Do
Valerie and Ethan were sleeping together in a very intimate position as they were both drunk. Jason felt both disgusted and angry."Ethan!" He growled."Jason, let them be." Desmond said, pulling Jason out. Ethan was still the legion commander so he didn't want Jason to act rash."Damn him. You are doing this to save his name and reputation as the legion commander, you have to show the world the kind of person he is. How dare he try to ruin my engagement party?" Jason fumed. "Calm down Jason. Go to your room, you are not in the right state of mind. Renee, you too. Let's leave." Desmond replied.They all returned to the event leaving the sleeping duo in the room. Everywhere was disorganized when they went back as everyone wanted to talk about it and some wanted to gossip."We are sorry about the temporary interruption. Everything has been fixed and is back to normal. Can we go back to the main reason we are all here today?" Desmond asked as soon as he got there.He was able to get the
Ethan furiously drove away from the house. He stopped at a quiet spot where he brought out his phone and began to watch the videos online. It had been posted by an anonymous account which had just been created few hours ago. Ethan called Keith. Keith picked up the phone almost immediately."Hello, sir." He said, over the phone."Keith, I have just been involved in a scandal." Ethan started."The one at a sterlings engagement party?" Keith asked."Actually, yeah." Ethan responded."It is all over the internet. What would you like me to do?" Keith asked."There is someone triggering the whole thing. First of all, Valerie and I were drugged, we had no idea how this happened, and now the video is online, it was posted by a newly created account. Don't you think someone is trying to play tricks on us?"' Ethan asked."Yeah, that is right. It sounds like a fool proofed plan which is already going as planned." Keith added."Exactly, which is why I need you to find out everyone involved in thi
