Robert was met with the most unexpected sight, more like he was seeing a ghost or something. He stayed mute for a while just to carefully assess the reality before him if he was dreaming again. He cleared his eyes over and over again, staring at the lady who remained on the bed covered to the chest by the bed cover and undisturbed about his presence like she didn't know him.

He couldn't even tell when the expensive bottle dropped from his hand and made a mess all over the place. While in a state of shock, the lady decided to end his misery by speaking to him first.

“What?! Did you see a ghost?!” She asked him and returned back to her phone.

Robert snapped back to reality and called out her name,

“Sophia!” 

She was his wife and they have been married for four years now. He dreams all kinds of wild dreams, but never could he dream up, day or night, the reality that was before him. His wife of four straight years cheating on him with a total stranger in the hotel where he worked. And to make it even worse, he came to serve them and caught her himself. It would have been better if someone had told him about it and he doesn't get to see it for himself, maybe he could disprove the story and just carry on with his life and marriage. 

All the thoughts running through his mind all at once, his brain was so packed with thoughts that he couldn't even move his body. The final thought to hit him finally released his body from the frozen state it was. The same man he cheered as a fanboy and called the Award Winning Men's Champion of the Night really got his trophy from conquering Robert's wife on the bed for God knows how long and how rough.

Robert's head couldn’t hold this final thought, he began pacing around thinking about the situation before him. Finally, he mustered the strength to speak his next words.

“Sophia, so you're cheating on me?” He asked like he didn't just see it.

Sophia laughed at the statement he just made and answered him,

“No I'm not, honey. You have to be man enough for me to cheat on you. This? This is not cheating because you are not a man.”

Her words quaked his entire body from his head to his toe, rumbled his internal organs, froze half his brain for a second, and widened his eyes to full strength. He could imagine what she had just said to him. He was her husband for crying out loud, why would she say he wasn't a man for her to cheat on him?

Robert looked at himself well, mentally counting his features. Six-foot-two, muscularly built, abs and all, and above all, be touched in-between his legs to find his manliness still intact. Why would she say he wasn't a man? Is she drunk? He kept asking himself.

But amidst all his questions, the best person who could answer them was Sophia who made the statement so he asked her,

“What do you mean by that, Sophia?”

Before she could answer, the huge man joined them from the bathroom,

“Baby, what's going on here?” He asked Sophia.

“Remember my pathetic husband I told you about?” She asked the man and he nodded his head in response, “This is him, body, soul, and wretchedness.” She introduced Robert to the man and the man began to laugh hard and loud at him.

Another unimaginable thought to process for Robert. First, he caught his wife cheating on him and not only was she not surprised and ashamed, she didn't care. Next, she said he wasn't man enough, and now, she addressed him as her wretched husband to a man he doesn't know and who doesn't know him either. If he was told, he would never have believed it, but he wasn't told, he just witnessed it.

The man's mocking laughter made matters even worse and made him even more angry. Not being able to bear it nor gain control over himself, he jumped at him and took him on with punches. He succeeded in getting the man to the ground, punching him faster than the man could defend.

The tension in the room sent Sophia into panic mode and she grabbed a table light and hit Robert on the head. Robert fell to the ground with another unimaginable thought in his mind. Did his wife just hit him on purpose for this strange man to gain the advantage over him? He asked himself as the man got on him, taking dominance and effecting it with punches as hard as his soft bones could hit.

Sophia got to the landline beside the bed and called the manager,

“Come to our suite now. There’s a madman here fighting with my man.” She ordered him.

“Me…Sophia…a mad…man?” Robert asked in-between struggling to regain dominance over the man. Something has definitely taken over his wife, this wasn't her at all he thought to himself.

In no time, the manager and his security team rushed into the suite with Sophia opening the door for them to come in. Coming in, they saw the mess on the floor of the shattered bottle, and even more interesting was a wrestling championship match going on besides the bed. Robert had regained the upper hand and was all over the man with hard fist punches.

“Get him away from the man.” The manager instructed the two security guys with him. And they did as he had instructed, pulling Robert away from the man and holding him still. The man groaned in pain on the ground where they had wrestled.

After apprehending Robert, the manager quickly rushed to his high-profile client who groaned in pain and helped him up.

“Are you okay, sir?” He asked.

The man got pissed at him and responded angrily,

“How can I be okay when your untamed animal here just attacked me.” 

“I am very sorry, sir.” The manager apologizes to him, trying to clean him up.

“I don't want your sorry, what I want is this bastard locked in jail for all eternity. I am pressing charges for battery, assault, and damages.” The man yelled.

The manager left him after helping him to settle well and Sophia took charge of him, then he went to Robert. Three dirty slaps to the face of the wrestling champion of the night followed up by words of bashing.

“Had I known, I would have just sent you home when I fired you this morning but I allowed you to fool me. Now look at what you've done. I will make sure you're locked up to never see the sun until you pay for all the damages you've caused both to this man and his girlfriend and to this establishment.” His boss bashed him, passing his judgment without a fair trial or hearing at least.

“Take him away straight to the police station.” His boss commanded with a thundering voice.

However, Robert was just a body of weight with little life left in him.“Do you think he could be a member of the family? After all, his name is William.” Linda asked her husband.“He is no member of any family, he has no family whatsoever. I've been married to him for four years, I know everything there is to know about this piece of shit.” Sophia answered her mother, clearing the notion of Robert being connected to the William Family even though he

First, who are you?” He asked Robert.Robert wondered why the question of his identity, the police ought to have that information by now. But he answered anyway, summoning strength from within.“I am Robert William.

    The convoy drove through the city and entered a private road where they drove for a few minutes and finally arrived at a very large estate property. The entire estate was lit up, shining bring. Every structure in it was a testament to luxury and opulence.They drove through the estate and finally stopped inside the compound of a huge mansion. The guards came down and opened the doors for them to come out, and Robert's sights remained wide open in disbelief. How is this place even real? He asked himself. He had seen beautiful places, especially in movies and magazines but nothing of this such has he ever seen.Dozens of armed security guards were littered all over the mansion and the estate. As they came down, everyone bowed to him as he walked past them, his smiles were off this world. In no time, he had transitioned from a world where everyone insulted and abused him to a world where everyone bowed to him, that was only a reality in his dreams. But what he was experiencing now made h

But thank God that you're found, I'm getting old and I need to retire which is why you'll have to take over the operations and control of the empire as the new heir.” Robert listened attentively but was overwhelmed by the part of him taking over as the new heir, what does he know, he has no experience and no degrees to qualify him for such a task. This triggered fear in him as he wondered the magnitude of the task.“Grandfather, I am not in any way or form qualified for any of these. I am a mere hotel attendant.” He cried out immediately to his grandfather, fearing his incompetence for the job.His grandfather looked at him and smiled, “Of course, I know that, my child. You'll undergo a three-month training program which will be designed to bring you up to speed with the best professionals in t

    "Now listen to me, you creep. You are just bluffing and..." The call ended before he could say anything else. He grunted in anger and walked back to where he was before. Raymond had alerted the police officers inside, and a chase had began to get Olivia. Robert walked back to them, breathing heavily."The police are after her." He tried to catch his breath."I know, sir. Let's meet with the detectives at once. I got everything she said on tape.""Yes!" Roberts eyes lit up. "Let's go, then." The two men rushed in back in to the building. Fransisco followed slowly behind them, but when he saw that they were really ahead of him, and wouldn't notice if he wasn't with them, he moved back. He looked from side to side as he rushed out of the premises. Meanwhile, many policemen ran out of the building like a colony of ants, each person dispersing themselves into different cars. Soon, the cars were out of sight. Robert walked out of the building with Raymond beside him. "It's a good thing you

    The detective squinted as he looked at his colleague. He turned back to Robert with a stern face before speaking."That is a serious accusation, sir. Are you sure about what you are saying?""Sure? Not exactly. But I really suspect that they might have had something to do with this. About Michael, I do not know how involved he might be. But Sophia? She even went to Juliet's house once to talk bad about me.""And how do you know that?""I saw her leave the house. I tried to ask her why she had come but she ignored me, and left hurriedly. Also, Juliet told me about it when I went in.""Hmm..." He sighed softly as he wrote something in his notebook. "And why would this Sophia want to talk bad about you to your girlfriend?""Sophia and I used to be married. But we got a divorce right before I met my grandfather. After that, she tried had to get back in to my life, but I refused. I think that made her very angry because she said questionable things after, things I didn't take serious.""Sh

Robert immediately opened the door and walked out on hearing that. "Umm... Ryan." He called as he walked towards the car. "Some people will be here later today to do some fixing in here, let them in. They will show you their ID cards first.""Yes, sir." Ryan nodded. He left as soon as Robert waved him off."Sir..." Raymond called hesitantly. "Please, I need to speak with you.""What is this about, Raymond? You know this isn't the time for conversations that are not...""It is very important, sir.""Alright." He sighed and got in to the car. Raymond walked to the other side and got in as well. "What is it?""It's about Fransisco." He paused and swallowed hard. "I... I heard him in his room." Robert squinted with concentration. He didn't trust Fransisco one bit and with the way Raymond was speaking, he was ready to hear the worst."What

    Robert didn't sleep the whole night. His eyes were open, fixed to the ceiling and filled with tears in his grandfather's room. It felt like the night would never end, like the torture and pain he was feeling would never end as well. Raymond knocked on the door several times to find out if he was alright, but he asked him to leave every single time. Just as his eyes were beginning to flutter with drowsiness, a bright light pierced through the window. He got off the couch immediately and headed to his room. There, he had a quick change of clothes before heading down to meet Raymond, and of course, Fransisco."Good morning, sir." Raymond said as soon as he saw him walking down the stairs. There was a smile on his face. One that Robert could not fathom at first. "Are you okay?""I'm fine." He said sharply with very steady eyes. He didn't seem like someone who had sobbed all night, maybe because he was very good at hiding his feelings. "We need to go to the station now.""But you've not h

    "Gone? Gone?" She asked, totally calm. She was dazed for a moment. She stood still with tears running down her cheeks. "What is gone? What does that even mean?" She managed to murmer."I don't even know what happened. I met the policemen on my way to the house, and I saw her. I saw her right there being placed on the stretcher. And she wasn't moving."She shot an angry eye at him as he tried to explain what he had seen. He stopped immediately and looked down. It was clear that all he was saying didn't matter to her at this point. She didn't want to hear anything."What did you do to my sister, Robert? What did you do to her?" She yelled."No, no. What are saying? I do not know what exactly happened to her. But I will make sure they pay dearly for it.""You, liar. What did she ever do to you? She didn't deserve this. She didn't!" Mary yelled, crying bitterly. She didn't mind the staring eyes that looked in her direction. She just wanted to know why this had to happen to her sister. "

    "Police station? What for?" She asked with wide eyes. He couldn't see her but he could already tell the expression on her face. And that was because she sounded just as confused as she looked. "What does that have to do with my sister, Robert? Where is my sister?""I'm really sorry, Mary." He said with a shaky voice. He could no longer contain the hurt he felt. "They don't really know what happened to her, but....""But what?" She interrupted sharply with tears dancing freely in her eyes, waiting gor the perfect opportunity to pour out. She heard what he was saying, but she did not understand. She did not want to understand if it was really what she was thinking. "What are you talking about, Robert? Where the hell is my sister?""Just meet me at the station now." He ended the call immediately. He couldn't mutter the courage to tell her that Juliet was found dead just minutes ago. He took a deep, shaky breath and nodded at the police officer. "I'll be at the station."Immediately after

    As he drove closer, he could see bright lights in a distance. He squinted hard to see exactly where the lights were coming from, but he couldn't see clearly. He sped up and was surprised to see police vehicles littered all over the place. He parked his car close by and looked on. He could see some officers placing barricade tapes around that particular area. Thoughts started to fly once more in his mind, and for a moment, his throat tightened. "No, no. Don't overthink anything, Robert." He said to himself and took a deep breath. He got out of the car, and walked quickly towards the area. As he got closer, he thought he recognised the car that was parked on the side of the road. He shook his head in disbelief and got even nearer to the scene. But before he could go past the barricade tapes, he was stopped by one of the officers."You can't come here, sir." The officer said roughly, his hand against Robert's chest in a light manner."What is going on here?" He asked in confusion, stari

    About two hours after Juliet left the office, Robert decided to do same. Juliet suddenly came to his mind. "Isn't she home yet?" He said under his breath. "Why hasn't she called yet?" He picked up his phone from the table and called her immediately. The first time, there was no response. He called again, and still, there was no response. "Well, I guess she's busy. I'll just call when I get home." He stood up and arranged all the documents, piling each on top of the other. He tucked everything under his arm and headed to the car."Good evening sir." The security guard hailed from his duty post."Yes, good evening." He answered before placing the documents in the back seat of the car. He closed the car door and walked closer to the young man. "Umm... Tomorrow, some men will be here to do a few checks and fixings in the building. Do let them in, alright?""Yes sir.""Alright then. Have a good night." He nodded and walked to the car. In no time, he sped off. As he drove down the street t

    It was 5pm now. The once blue sky was slowly getting darker. Little golden strips beatified the now grey like clouds. Juliet had a pile of documents in front of her and was working on them with utmost focus. Robert sat right opposite her, doing the same. His eyes suddenly looked in the direction of the glass wall, and then, at Juliet. He stared at her for a moment. He agreed with himself one more time that she was indeed the most beautiful woman he had ever set his eyes on. It felt like time stopped during those few moments, and he was lost in the beauty he was beholding."What are you looking at, Mister?" She asked in a serious tone. Her eyes, pinned on the papers in front of her. Robert shook his head with a soft smile, and peered down at his watch."You should get going, honey. It's past five.""Oh!" She exclaimed calmly and placed the pen in her hand on the table. She looked up and met his eyes. "You really want me to go?""If there was an alternative at this point, then I would
