Please pick it up! It is about Ezra!

Ever since Evan saw that message from Vera his heart hasn't been at ease. He stepped out of the car towards the restaurant before him and started to march towards it.

His hands dug inside his pockets as his eyes darted around in search of Vera.

"Evan," Her calm voice sounded from his left and he slowly turned towards where the voice came from.

Vera was seen waving at him and gesturing for him to come over. Evan walked towards her and took a seat beside her.

"Hey, what happened to Ezra? And why can't it be discussed on the phone?" Even asked as he adjusted on his seat.

Vera smiled softly and she moved her phone towards him. "I am sorry that I had to ask you to move over here. I was in a hurry and couldn't talk much,"

Evan glanced at her and nodded without saying much. His eyes fixed intensely on the video before him as he wondered what Vera wanted to show him.

"I was at home yesterday after a busy day at work when I noticed something was ami

    “W-what?”Ezra's eyes widened in shock as her face went pale in fright. She glanced at Evan as her mind raced on what she was going to say next. Evan on the other hand had a calm expression on his face as he studied her expressions, but on seeing that she was refusing to speak or continue the subject. He decided to ignore her. “I won't be around for some days. Do make sure to get along with Vera,” Evan said as he turned his back on her and started to make his way upstairs. After he had walked away, a heavy sigh escaped Ezra's lips as she stood there in silence, but one could still see the beards of sweets that formed on her forehead. ***The faint click sound of the door being locked sounded in the calm and dimly lit room. Evan looked around and sighed lightly. He was just about to head to the bed when a soft beep sounded from his phone. He dug his hand inside his pocket and took out his phone to see that Claus had messaged him. (Davis needs your help, sir. I've been able to trac

    A few days later it was time for the event! The event hall was spacious as table stands were arranged neatly in rows, and the place was well-brightened with magnificent chandelier lighting. One could tell it was an event made for the elite and big names in the country. Everyone at the gala event was in groups of two and some three or more as they chatted and made side talks with one other. Some just sipped on their glasses of champagne and wine as they waited for the chairperson to address them. "Attention everyone" the presenter called the attention of the crowd and they directed their focus to him. While some just continued their discussions."Ladies and gentlemen the moment we have all been waiting for, the person assistant of Sir Evan, Sir Claus." He announced, there was a brief applause as Claus walked majestically to the podium. "Good day ladies and gentlemen, I am Claus the secretary of Sir Evan who unfortunately won't be able to attend this event and is representing him

    A few hours after Claus saw the message. He had left the company and drove speedingly back home with a slight frown on his face.He had tried calling Vera's number but she wasn't answering her phone. “Ezra…. What happened to Vera?” That was the first thing that came into his mouth the instant he alighted from his car and went to the living room inside the mansion.Ezra was seen seated in the living room going through an article with a slight frown on her face, but when she heard Claus's voice, her hands froze slightly, as she looked up at him. “Oh, you are back.” She started as she closed the file and stood up. “When Vera arrived home today I informed her of Evan's departure.”“And after that?” Claus probed. “She stormed off to her room visibly enraged, and after a while, she walked out of her room and took the Range Rover. I do not know where she ran off to, and it has been 2 hours now,” Ezra calmly replied. “Damn it,” Claus cursed silently as he took out his phone to try and see

    “Get the girl! We can't allow this filthy rat to get away from here!” A man's deep voice boomed among the crowd as lots of people, both men and women picked up sticks and stones at the fragile child in front of them. The petite girl tried to run away but one of the women held her arm and yanked her to the ground, which led her to collapse on the floor and dislocate her arm's joint.“Ahh!” A heart-wrenching scream escaped the girl's parted lip. And even after seeing her in pain, none of them stopped to help her. " Stop pretending you witch! Did you think this time someone would show you pity and come to your rescue? How dare you!” The man from earlier roared in rage as he raised his left hand upwards and slapped her cheek hard.Due to the force of the slap, the girl's face went sideways and her forehead slammed hard on the cold rough floor. A strong metallic taste filled her mouth as a strong stench of blood drifted into her nostrils. "P-please," She tried to beg them but none wer

    "Papa?" This single word hung up in the air and was the only thing that echoed in Evan's ears. "W-What did you just call me?" Evan's eyes blinked rapidly and he stared flabbergastedly at the 8 or 9-year-old child before him. Her round sea-green pupils bore at him with nothing but Innocence in them. As though terrified by his reply, the girl's shoulders slumped down as she hung the blanket to her chest, and stared at him with tears slowly weiling up in her eyes. "Why?" She mumbled as she gazed hard at Evan. "Do you hate me?" Evan stood there in shock at how innocent and yet heavy her words were. 'Did she get hurt from the beating? or is she pretending to know me when she doesn't?' Evan frowned as he thought more about her strange behavior. "Why are you silent, papa?" Her soft calm voice sounded in his ears, prompting him to stop thinking and glance at her way. "You must be hungry. I brought you something to eat," Evan cleared his throat slightly as he walked towards her with a

    Silence fell on the duo the instant those words left Evan's lips. Come to think of it, Davis did realize something odd when he booked a room in this Inn. "It was no wonder they showed zero interest in me," Davis sighed in realization as he couldn't help but cover his lips to hide the shame welling up inside him.' That was so...' He shook his head and then glanced at Evan who was going through something on his phone."What is it?" Davis asked and Evan stopped with what he was doing and glanced at Davis. "The census will be conducted via a website named 'Pigboll'?" Evan's brows raised slightly at the weird name... and on seeing how curious Davis was, he showed him the website. After glancing at it for a while, Davis slowly nodded his head as his back slowly leaned against the wall. "I see. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing for us... but let's just wait and see how it rolls!""Hmm," Evan nodded as he shoved the phone inside his pocket. "Earlier when I got here. I as

    The sound of gunshots echoed through the air as a gigantic military warehouse appeared to come into view. Soldiers could be seen firing in a particular direction... more like... at the two men who were running towards the north. A loud groan escaped from Davis's mouth, as he felt his chest burning in pain. He gasped in fear at the sight of the blood flowing through his chest. Damn it!. How could he have not dodged that? Huge sounds were heard from different directions, and Davis kept looking back at where they were coming from.Sirens blared and one could see some soldiers getting to their positions. He could hear the soldiers's voices clearer from the distance they stood. He was sure they were getting more soldiers notified now. He could hear more voices from the direction they had escaped. "Can you stop glancing back and forth already?!. You will get us killed at this rate! "Evan gritted his teeth hard as he jumped off a rock before them. Davis did the same but landed on his

    A few days before the attack! After Evan had already discussed their plans, Evan decided to stay low-key for a few days and at the same time deal with something that had been bothering him throughout the day. "Rosetta... My name is Rosetta," The fragile-looking child muttered fearfully to Evan. Although Evan had taken her In and treated her, she still couldn't help but feel fearful anytime he gazed at her.And she noticed that anytime she called Evan 'Papa' He always had this... Cold expression on his face. "Where are your parents?" Evan's lips parted slightly as they blurted out the question that had been bothering his mind."I am sure by now they should have noticed that you aren't at home." He added and was about to continue speaking when he noticed how quiet and downcasted she was. His brows arched slightly on seeing that and he wondered if he had said something wrong. "Are you okay?" He inquired with a slight frown on his face, and on hearing no reply from her, he slightly a

The digital realm had become our battleground, a space where we could amplify our voices and mobilize support for our cause with the click of a button."Our latest post is live," I announced to the group of young activists gathered around me, their eyes shining with excitement and anticipation.

    As the sun cast its golden rays over the bustling streets of Venton City, a sense of anticipation hung in the air like a tangible presence. The seeds of change had been sown, and now it was time for them to bear fruit. With determination coursing through my veins, I set out to meet with a group of citizens who had taken it upon themselves to uncover the truth behind the corruption that plagued our city.The grassroots journalism initiative had gained momentum in recent weeks, as more and more Venton City residents grew disillusioned with Edward's iron-fisted rule. Now, as I approached the modest office that served as the nerve center of their operation, I could sense the simmering energy of a group on the brink of discovery.Inside, the atmosphere crackled with excitement as I greeted the dedicated individuals who had dedicated themselves to the pursuit of truth. Their faces were alight with passion and determination, their eyes shining with a fierce resolve that sent a shiver of exci

    The sun hung low in the sky as I stood before a gathering of eager volunteers, my heart swelling with pride at the sight of so many willing hands ready to make a difference. We had organized a community outreach program to provide much-needed resources and support to the marginalized communities of Venton City, and the turnout exceeded even my most optimistic expectations."Thank you all for being here today," I began, my voice carrying across the bustling square. "Together, we have the power to make a real difference in the lives of those who need it most."The crowd erupted into applause, their enthusiasm contagious as they eagerly awaited their assignments for the day.

Everywhere I turned, I could feel the weight of Edward's oppressive presence, his toxic behavior poisoning the very air we breathed. But despite the growing resentment simmering beneath the surface, the citizens of Venton City remained powerless to challenge his authority.I watched in disgust as Edward threw trash recklessly onto the pristine sidewalks, his actions a blatant display of disregard for the environment and the community he purported to serve. But as much as I longed to confront him, I knew that doing so would only draw suspicion upon myself, further fueling his relentless pursuit of me.Instead, I kept my distance, observing from the shadows as Edward continued his reign of terror unabated. His vulgar language echoed through the streets, offending the ears of passersby who dared not speak out against him for fear of reprisal.But amidst the chaos, a glimmer of hope emerge

    The search for Davis had led us to the outskirts of Venton City, where rumors of his presence had been circulating. As my team scoured the area, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that gnawed at the pit of my stomach. Davis was a master of deception, and I knew all too well that he could be hiding in plain sight, waiting to strike when least expected.I trudged through the overgrown foliage, my senses on high alert as I scanned the surroundings for any sign of Davis. The sun beat down relentlessly, casting long shadows that seemed to dance mockingly around me. But amidst the oppressive heat and stifling humidity, I remained determined to uncover the truth.Suddenly, a rustling in the bushes ahead caught my attention, and I froze, my hand instinctively reaching for the gun holstered at my side. But before I could react, a familiar voice called out from the darkness."Evan, it's me," came Davis's voice, tinged with desperation.I hesitated for a moment, unsure whether to trust him.

    Rosetta found

    As I sat in my dimly lit office in , my mind raced with worry. The news of Rosetta being found by one of the hidden families struck me like a bolt of lightning. I had taken pity on her, buying her from that wretched auction house, hoping to give her a chance at freedom. But now, she was in the hands of another, and I feared what they might do with her.The family who found Rosetta was the secretive Montague clan. Known for their ruthlessness and secrecy, they operated in the shadows, pulling strings and controlling outcomes without ever revealing themselves to the public. I knew dealing with them would be tricky, but I had no choice if I wanted to ensure Rosetta's safety.However, my plans were thrown into disarray when I received word that Edward, a key figure in Venton City, was suspicious of my involvement in the attack on the military base. I had been trying to save Davis's sister, but now it seemed my actions had drawn unwanted attention.Unable to risk exposing myself further, I

    “What do you have?” He asked immediately he spotted her after returning from the meeting. “So this is what I saw” she announced, turning the laptop to him for him to view what was on display. It was a CCTV camera footage, the black and white quality made it difficult for him to see the face of each passerby but he could identify their genders with their physiques.It seemed like a regular street scene , with people walking in and out of frame going about their day like no cares in the world until one particular figure caught his eye. A lady figure wearing a caught with a distinctive gait, appeared on the screen. She looked suspicious as she kept looking back and forth for some reason before disappearing into the mansion.'What am I looking at, Vera?' Evan asked, his voice low and urgent.'That's the south entrance to Rose street where the event was held,' she replied, her eyes locked on his. 'And whose that lady entering there” “Keep watching and find out” she simply said.Evan's mi
