As early as 9 a.m. Kelvin jets back to Boston. He was filled with happiness and joy as he dropped by Boston's airport. He climbed down the jet and sniffed in with his eyes closed. It had been over 2 since he last visited.

"Home sweet home," he muttered to himself and smiled happily. A Lamborghini Urus was parked in. The airport to take him home. As they drove along the road in silence, he texted Cara to meet at COBMENIR tonight.

The weather was cool and boring as they drove into the family house. Beautiful scents of hibiscus flowers hung in the air, as the wind carried it into his nostrils.

He plodded towards the entrance, and when he entered the house, he realized that Christmas was really upon them.

Back in Vancouzer, he hardly had time to think about Christmas. One thing always bothered him, and he could hardly concentrate.

He plodded towards the entrance carefully, wondering what was going on. When he got closer, it became clear to him. It was an argument between two men about a little. Staring at the child before him, he wondered what was going on. Obviously, the child ain't theirs. He narrowed his gaze to the two men before him, and the one on the left stared at him in disdain. "Young man, what do you want? What's your business here? If you are here to buy anything you should wait out there.

He didn't pay attention to whoever entered, believing it was Pamela. His gaze hung heavy on the file, till a familiar voice spoke up."How is your day going?" She said, and he paused.

    "Shhh! Shhh! It's gonna be OK. Don't worry, I'm sure he'll come around soon enough." Pamela said, hugging Katherine tightly to herself. Her expression conveys a deep sense of sympathy for Katherine's situation, even though she had not been making things easy for Katherine either. A thought struck her mind, and she cleared her throat. She broke the hug, and her tender gaze fixated on Katherine's."But why would you do it in the first place? I mean you were married. And from the look of things, I think you guys were happy. Why did you betray his love? There are lots of things you should've considered, before making up your mind to divorce him.""Besides, there are better ways to get a divorce, instead of cheating on him on the day of your anniversary. What were you thinking?" Pamela's voice echoed in the office, and Katherine sniffed in and wiped her tears. Her face had gone pale. With a downcast gaze, she spoke to Pamela who was waiting to hear her defense."It's a long story, Pame

The street was filled with beautiful colorful lights that created a welcoming ambiance in the atmosphere. A distant thud from his left caught his attention, and he turned and saw Pamela walking majestically towards him with her hands folded akimbo. A grin found its way to his face, and he opened his arms for a hug."To what do I owe this unpleasant visit?" He asked playfully, and she narrowed her eyes in response to his question. When she got to him, he leaned forward to hug her, but she struck him on his left shoulder, and he cried out in pain."What the hell, and what have I done this time?" He asked with a soft tone and she furrowed her brow. "Why did you do that to my friend? I mean, it has been a while, why can't you just forget it? Besides…" she said, but Kelvin interrupted her before she could complete her statement."Woah woah woah!!! Hold on, what do you mean

Given the situation, it became obvious that Mark must be monitoring his movement, somehow, he managed to find out whatever he did or discussed with anyone. “Maybe he knows about Juliana already, or maybe he doesn't." Kelvin thought. He paced around the sitting room, thinking of the next move now that Frank was dead. His phone rang, and he glanced at the screen. It was a call from Dead Target.

    On a Monday morning, Kelvin woke up late, it was a new day to face the troubles in the family. He grunted, struggling to leave the bed, but he clearly was too tired and needed more sleep. He glanced at his side clock, past 8 already. He jumped off the bed, today was the day when he got to represent his Uncle at the Silverwood Associates. He knew he couldn't mess things up by showing up late, so he rushed into the bathroom. In the blink of an eye, he was done and was dressing himself as fast as he could. A knock came on the door, and he paused. “Come on in," he screamed, and the door opened gently. An old woman walked into the room, wearing white and a kitchen apron on her.“Good morning sir, your coffee is ready as usual. Would you like me to make something else for you before you leave the house?” She asked, and Kelvin sighed. "Naah! Don't worry, Carolina, I don't have any time to eat.

    “What does the cunny lady have for me this time? I trust that you bring good news? Spit it, I've got no time to waste.” Mark's husky voice said over the phone. Mariana swallowed nervously, her eyes darted around the room as she thought of the best way to say what she had in mind. Mark was someone she knew to be impatient and arrogant, his temper issues were something to be concerned about. She exhaled, darting her eyes around the room.“What is it? I don't have all day." He roared, and she flinched. She swallowed hard and pouted slowly."Uhm… there is a problem," she said. Sitting on his sofa inside his sitting room, he raised his brow, showing his concern for what she had to say. " Spit it out,” he commanded, and she swallowed.Fear engulfed her, thinking about what he would do when she told him the situation."It's Gregory. It happened just like you said.
