“So Mr Mortan, can you tell us a little about your former son-in-law, Denzel Wolin?” The female host asked, smiling politely at the man sitting across from her with his legs crossed. “Thank you for this opportunity. Although this is a very sensitive topic for me and my family, I will put it out there for everyone to hear and learn from it.” The man said calmly, feigning hurt.“ Denzel Wollin, was my son-in-law,who's now divorced from my daughter because we can't afford to have a criminal as a member of the Mortan’s family. “Despite having found out that he deceived my daughter into marrying him, we never hated him, we still accepted him and took him as one of us”“But that wasn't still enough for him, he went ahead to dive into a path that turned out very bad” “That's bad, and I am sorry to hear that” the interviewer said sympathetically, taking a quick glance at the piece of papers in her hands. “So when did you guys notice he was into hard drugs?”She asked, raising her head towa
“Miss Harlow, are these the copies of your diploma or not?” Mr Collins thundered, flashing the documents to a visibly shaky Anita. Anyone who saw how talkative she was a few minutes ago, would wonder why she was shaking and finding it hard to give out a simple answer. “Ye.. Ye… yes Sir it's mine” Anita stuttered, tears rolling down her eyes, she knew she was done for, her secrets were open in the air, and there was nothing she could do. “Miss Harlow, you are under arrest for fraudulently obtaining a nursing degree diploma” officer Oven said, approaching her with cuffs in his hands. “What! She's a snake” One of the women yelled, as the room burst into murmuring. “Take her! She deserves to rot in jail”“Can't believe I bashed an innocent man and praised a fraudster” People began throwing in their suggestions one after the other, while glaring at Anita in contempt. “Sir please, have mercy, please have mercy” Anita cried, dropping to her knees in front of Mr Collins. Mr. Collins
“ Don't you dare move an inch closer to him!” A voice roared at the entrance, causing the men to startle and halt in their steps. The room went silent, as every one snapped their head to the direction the voice came from. Anita's face went pale the moment she saw the man standing at the entrance, her heartbeat picked up as beads of sweat started forming on her forehead. Tom, the head doctor was shocked to the core at who he was seeing, but he tried to hide it, “ Worst come to worst, I will deny everything” he thought to himself, hoping that would calm his pounding heart. The middle aged 6 foot man stood intimidatingly tall, his hands tucked into the pocket of his black suit trousers. His presence emitted a powerful aura,and beside him was Mr Mike, Denzel’s butler. Together they ambled in, their Italian shiny black shoes tapping against the hard tiled floor. “I'm sorry for the whole Incident, young master, I am Collins Waffe, the current head of Stanford hospital ” The man sai
“Everyone, this is the head doctor, he's here to settle the case” Anita informed, her lips curling into a smirk. “ Yes, I was informed of what happened, and thankfully, I know this man right here!He is a known criminal” The head doctor Sam, said, feeling confident in his lie. Denzel eyes widened in shock, because he hadn't seen this man before, why then was he calling him a criminal? At this point he was getting fed up, and his heart was boiling in anger. “ Like I said, he could have harmed someone in the process of taking this card, take a look at him, doesn't he look like a criminal who hadn't had his bath in 3 days?” Sam said mockingly, causing an uproar of laughter in the room. His girlfriend Anita had texted him and explained briefly what had happened, and also asked him to add salt to the injury. So, that was exactly what he was doing. Denzel clenched his teeth, glaring at the slender man who had a devilish smirk plastered on his face. “He might have even killed someone i
[Beep] [Invalid card] “Yes! I said it!”“This thing right here is a thief” Anita bellowed, pointing a finger at Denzel. “I don't know why we listened to him, we could have just called the police right away!”one of the men in the room hissed , digging through his pocket to bring out his phone. “Thank God for you, we wouldn't have known that such a criminal was amongst us” Another woman said , flashing a smile to Anita. “Exactly! we need your type of people in our city” Another man added as other people joined in, showering praises on Anita, causing her head to swell in pride. “But It's not too late, we can call the police right away, he needs to face the law for stealing” Another person interjected, changing the topic. “Yes! Exactly!” Sounds of approval echoed in the room. Denzel stood frozen, his heart pounding furiously against his chest as he imagined what was going to happen when the police arrived. He was sure there was money in that card, because there was no reason for h
“How Vivian? How did this happen? Victor has no reason to commit suicide? I don't understand”Denzel asked, still baffled at what he just heard. “Same here, I'm confused and I refuse to believe that victor committed suicide” “How did this happen Vivian?”“He got a job that same day you left, the job promised to pay him $100 daily. So he decided to work and raise money for mom’s treatment, but since that day he left for the job, he's yet to be back and I haven't heard from him. I reported to the police after 24 hours, but just this morning, they sent this” she sobbed, stretching the white folded piece of paper to Denzel . Denzel took the paper and opened it, goosebumps enveloped his skin as he read his brother's final words. The paper was stained with tears, and he noticed a tiny word at the end of the paper. It wasn't in the same language as the rest, but he made a mental note to use a translator for it later. Denzel stared at the heart breaking words his brother allegedly wrote as
After 3 hours, the car finally came to a halt in a secluded part of the city, where only the; Elites members of the city, powerful businessmen and CEOs own properties or live.Denzel’s family, the Leon family, owned the largest portion of land in the area and a whole estate named after them. “ We are here young master” Amanda said as the automatic white gate slided, revealing the magnificent white mansion. Denzel’s mouth dropped open as he took in the sight before him. There was a huge white peacock fountain, the vicinity was surrounded by neatly trimmed and bright flowers as several men in black suits with headphones hung around their heads walked around,while talking. “This is one of the properties of your grandfather” Amanda said to Denzel with a polite smile, while packing at the open garage“Wow” Denzel said with his eyes darting around the luxurious cars lined up in the garage.“Welcome home young master” the servants said in unison,bowing their heads slightly as one of them
“Yes , I'm aware I also have noticed for a while now, I have been watching the car closely ” Amanda said, disrupting Denzel’s thoughts as she sped up the car attempting to give the other car space.Surprisingly, the other car also sped up, now pursuing their car with full force to double cross them. Amanda sped up to the highest gear, her hands firm around the steering.Denzel’s heart drummed against his chest as he tightly held one of the men. It was as if he was experiencing fast and furious in real life and the speed at which Amanda was driving, Denzel feared that the car would summersault but this time, he had no idea who was going to save him.Bang! Bang! Countless gunshots hit the back glass of the car. Denzel's heart dropped into his stomach as he waited for the bullet to pierce his skin. He sat still for a while amidst the sounds of gunshots but when he didn't feel any pain, he slowly opened his eyes and watched as the bullets bounced on the car window but were unable to pene
“ Young master, we are sorry we had taken this measure in making sure we rescued you, they turned him around checking for injuries, “Relax, you are in safe hands now, young master” The three of them bowed slightly as two gently lifted him up from the chaos. “ Young master?” Denzel asked,utterly confused Before Denzel could tell what was happening , he was seated at the back seat of an air conditioned range rover.His eyes darted around the car as he gasped taking in the car interior and posh leathers. The one that baffled me most was how this car managed to stay undamaged , like it hadn't hit a van , whereas the other van suffered terrible damage. His gaze landed on the gorgeous lady driving at the front, her white tailored suit hugged her slender body accentuating her well sculpted body even while she was seated. She looked so put together with her blonde hair nearly tied up in a bun. Without doubt she is a rich business woman and she really smells nice too. Denzel thought. As if
