DREDGE UP

Jefferson was very sad about everything that was happening. His supposed fiancée was proving to be difficult and there was nothing they could do about it.

"I'm so sorry Jeremy, I didn't mean for any of this to happen. I didn't know she came to me with another motive. I actually thought she loved me, but I didn't know that she was playing me the whole time, biding her time until she would strike," Jefferson said to Jeremy.

He was so worried about how this was going to turn out. If he had known that something like this would happen, he never would have agreed to date Chloe, not to talk of proposing to her.

"Sorry is not going to cut it, Jefferson, everything is a disaster, especially now that we know who your fiancée works for," Jeremy muttered. His face was thinner than usual.

It looks like he has not been eating or sleeping well for a while, Jefferson observed.

"Stop calling her my fiancée. I don't know how I got mixed up with that devil. She presented herself to me like

    SOMETHING ODD"There's evidence?" Chloe asked Jeremy, her confusion was palpable.At first she had assumed that Jeremy was bluffing because of how unserious they were about everything, but the pair of eyes that had stared intensely into Chloe's told her that he was as serious as he could be."Of course there is evidence Chloe, do you think I'm joking this time or thinking about playing with you, I'm as real as you get, so I would suggest you don't play any silly games with me," Jeremy warned, his eyes pointing in anger.He was tired of playing this game with Jefferson and now his bitch Chloe, he just wished it could all be over before it even started, so he could have some peace and quiet for once."I don't know what you're talking about and I don't care about the evidence you have," Chloe said, her tone showing that she wasn't ready to give up, not even for a second. Jefferson was disgusted by her attitude."You don't know Chloe? I'm sure when you see the evidence against you you'll

    FALSE IDENTITY Jeremy ended the call and looked at Agent Thompson and Jefferson. His expression was unusual."Is everything okay?" asked Agent Thompson, trying to read Jeremy's expression."Avery just called me and said she got some information on Chloe and wanted me to come over to the house right away," Jeremy spoke up. He wondered how Avery could do that in such a short amount of time when he couldn't."That's great news, please, there's no time to waste, do you need one of us to come with you?" asked Jefferson, looking at Jeremy for an answer."There won't be any need for that, let me go and meet with her first, then whatever she says I'll tell you later," Jeremy replied."Okay then, just keep us posted on any new developments." Agent Thompson said as they left the hospital. Leaving Jefferson behind.Jeremy drove down to his house at full speed. He was in a hurry to find out what his wife had discovered.

    BREAKTHROUGH "Who would that man be?" Jeremy asked, his brow furrowed in confusion. There are so many clues and pieces to the investigation and Jeremy is sure that if he isn't careful enough he won't be able to find any trace that would be positive for him."I don't know Mr Jeremy, but from how upset she was and how rich he is, I think he had something to do with your family. Maybe he was working for your family or part of it," Linda explained, her eyes glittering with sincerity and certainty.She didn't know what Susan was involved in, but from all indications it was something serious."You're going to have to help us with this Linda, anything you can do to help us catch him would be greatly appreciated," Avery added. She was rather shocked that someone who was part of Nathaniel's family was involved in the incident, but whoever it was, they had to bring him to book."I don't really know, he usually comes to see Susan at the hostel and I wasn't really involved in what Susan was doi

    EVIDENCE Jeremy laughed out loud, much to the surprise of Chloe and Agent Thompson. "Are you still talking about evidence, what makes you think we have nothing on you?" asked Jeremy with a grin on his face. "If you have something on me, then present it, I want to see it, otherwise you will get nothing out of me," Chloe muttered defiantly. She wasn't going to spill until they told her the evidence they had against her. "You must be so stupid to think that I am bluffing after all this time, especially now that my company is on the line, what do I have to gain by doing this," Jeremy asserted. He doesn't understand what she was feeling like, why was she feeling so important. Jeremy pulled his phone out of his pocket and flipped through it, looking for something. When he finally found it, he turned the phone around and showed her the picture of his uncle. Chloe's eyes went wide. She was shocked that her connection to Jeremy's uncle has been exposed.

There was no denying that Jeremy was sure of his words.Looking into his eyes, she could see how determined he was, there was practically no way she could deny that, not with the evidence staring her in the face."You'd better tell the truth Chloe, I'm not kidding this time, I'm bloody serious," Jeremy threatened, his eyes weren't friendly. He was so irritated by the defence Chloe was putting up and wished she could just get over the charade and get on with things. Time wasn't on their side lately.Chloe looked at Jeremy and back at Jefferson before nodding in agreement, "It's all right Jeremy, I'll tell the truth," Chloe finally murmured, her eyes glowing with her sincerity, the face that said she wasn't kidding this time."You can speak Chloe, I'm listening," Jeremy urged her, his patience was wearing thin and he needed to hear what she had to say."You were right Jeremy,

    CHANGE IN ATMOSPHERE As soon as the guests saw that the security man had allowed Tony to enter the hall, they were immediately filled with praise for Kennedy West."Mr Kennedy, I must commend you, your type is rare and you have done us such a great service," the man who had spoken earlier commented quickly.He seems to be the leader or pioneer of whatever was going on with them."You handled the situation professionally and helped to speed up the line. I've heard about your family fortune and I must say it's well deserved," the man added again with clear conviction.Kennedy just listened, wanting to see if others felt the same way like the man. He needed to be sure he would be accepted."It's nothing, I couldn't just stand by and watch a man being treated like a slave," Kennedy countered, his words calm and equally firm."You are far too generous, Mr West. Because of you, the rest of us didn't have to be checked, you gave us a free pass," the man blurted out, his anger as obvious as

The security man at the gate looked rather surprised that Kennedy West had stepped in for Jeremy, but he was still sticking to his words.Kennedy West, on the other hand, had been looking at Jeremy for quite a while and had noticed the argument he was having with the security man at the gate.He overheard the conversation and was sure it wasn't a big deal and could be handled. "I follow the rules at the gate. There's no entry without a pass," the security man said with determination and clear conviction."What are you saying? Do you think I'm someone who would come to an event without being invited, I can't believe you treat people like this," Jeremy snapped,his anger boiling.He was so angry and equally

    THE AUCTION As soon as Jeremy arrived at the gate, the security men stopped him, he was surprised because he didn't expect to be stopped at the entrance, but he decided to keep his cool and see what was going on.He had plans to join Avery and the kids on their little sightseeing tour, he expected the process to be as quick as possible."Good afternoon sir, please, how can we help you?" the security officer asked him. He looked at him from head to toe, probably analyzing his outfit.Jeremy was dressed casually, he didn't want to do too much. He had just arrived in the country and didn't want to dress extravagantly. That wasn't really his style, he just likes to look comfortable."I'm Jeremy Nathaniel and I'm here for the luxury home auctions," Jeremy said as he looked at the security officers.The two security officers looked at each other and then back at Jeremy.They were surprised that Jeremy was there for the auction. All registered members and interested buyers had their identit

His face was full of optimism."I can't believe it, your father gave us a company, wow, where is the company," Avery said. Her voice was full of excitement.They didn't know that Jeremy's father had another company somewhere else that was even bigger than the one they were currently running."Calm down, Avery. I can see the excitement in your face too, which means this is welcome news for both of us," Jeremy said as he looked into his wife's eyes."And for the location. We're moving to another state, far from here. The company is in New York City," Jeremy added with a smile on his face."New York City, this is amazing. I can't believe it. Am I dreaming, babe, please pinch me so I can wake up," Avery said with a laugh.For them, moving to a new city was welcome news. After everything they'd been through these past few months, a move to a new place was just what

    GRATITUDEJeremy's eyes widened in confusion, his focus fixed intently on the document on the table as his father's words echoed in his ears."Father, this is a huge surprise; I don't even know what to say. You're leaving the company to me?" Jeremy whispered, his eyes flickering over the document on the table.If anything, his father had given him an unexpected surprise, one that Jeremy had no idea how to react to. Everything he'd done hadn't been because he longed for the company or wanted it to be his, but mainly because his father's vision matched his own, and he wanted to be part of something good."You don't have to say anything, Jeremy. You're a good man, and I'm not saying this because you're my son, but because I've seen your nature, and it's filled with goodness," Jeremy's father said, his voice firm and steady.Even in the midst of their past disagreements, he had never once stopped seeing Jeremy for who he truly was. He was sure of his personality more than anything else."

The past events had been turbulent for them, but now this was a good way to start the day."Wow, that's great news. What are you waiting for, we have to go see Daddy at the hospital," Avery muttered. She was just as excited as Jeremy.Her father-in-law, who had been in a coma for so long, was finally awake. The joy was palpable and they couldn't wait to welcome him home."Do you think you can come with me? You know it hasn't been long since you gave birth and the doctor said you shouldn't move around too much until you're completely healed," Jeremy said. He didn't want to stress his wife out. She had been through a lot and he just wanted her to rest without any stress.She still has nightmares sometimes, and they're always not good ones, so her therapist instructed her to remove herself from anything that's stressful and try to

    APPREHENDED Jeremy was wearing a newly developed pair of sunglasses that could record everything that happened and display it on live TV.So when Preston stabbed Avery's stepmother in the stomach, everyone saw it on their TV screens."Stupid woman, why did you enter," Preston exploded in anger, what kind of useless woman was she that she gave her life for someone else."I will not allow you to touch my daughter and my grandchild. Better you take my life and let them live," Avery's stepmother said as she blocked Avery from the attack."Even if you try, I will kill both of you and nothing will happen, since my life is already ruined, you will be my sacrifice. Jeremy dared me, so he must also lose something that is very important to him," Preston ranted. He tried to pull the knife from Avery's stepmother, but she held on tightly with all her might.Blood dripped from her stomach and mouth.

    LIVE NEWSThe moment Jeremy said those words, Preston immediately pulled his phone out of his pocket, his eyes wandering to the current news on his phone. It was live and also trending."What does that mean, Jeremy?" Preston thundered, his eyes glowing with the frustration in his heart.He had warned Jeremy not to come with anyone, but Jeremy's decision to come with the media was actually something he hadn't seen coming, his eyes rolling in disapproval."It's just as you see Preston, you're live on the news, I'm pretty sure people would be amazed and shocked by what you've just said," Jeremy replied to him, his voice growling with displeasure and how much he despised him.The fact that Preston had kidnapped his wife and didn't care that she was pregnant was quite annoying to him, he hadn't thought that Preston would go that far just to get him to come."You are very bold Jeremy, I had something planned for you and you decided to plan something of your own as well.

Several people in the grocery store looked at him, wondering what had come over him to act the way he did.Jeremy was so devastated after the line went dead. He couldn't believe his uncle would stoop so low as to kidnap his wife just to get to him.He was still in a daze when his phone beeped and he looked at it to see the address of the place where his wife was being held.He immediately scrolled through his phone and called a private security company he had worked with before."Hello, I need about ten men disguised as civilians to accompany me on a rescue mission." Jeremy said to the head of the private security company."When will you need them, sir?" the operator said from his own end."I need them urgently. My pregnant wife has been kidnapped and we need to rescue her as soon as possible. So I need your men urgently and I'm willing to pay any price," Jeremy muttered from his end.He was devastated, he couldn't imagine the p
