Expose Scott!
last update2024-01-23 22:30:09

Opening the door,Caroline was expecting to see Scott since they both planned earlier to hang out. But instead,she saw someone she has been trying to ignore lately,someone that has been getting on her nerves.

"Good morning,Caroline,did you sleep well?" Pedro greeted with a smile. "You look like you are about to head out,where are you going?" Pedro asked,noticing Caroline's clothes and make up.

"Non of your business." Caroline replied,annoyed by the question.

"You want me to drop you off?" Pedro ordered,pointing towards his shiny lamborghini.

"No thanks." Caroline turned him down.

"Anyways,is your dad home? I have something to discuss the whole family." Pedro voiced.

"Why? Did anything happen?" Caroline asked with a worried expression etched in her face.

"It's concerning Scott Carden." Pedro replied. "Can i come in?" Unable to wait for Caroline's reply,Pedro walked into the mansion.

Pedro walked into the living room and found the whole family sitting quietly and doing their own thing.

When Aunt Zaya spotted him,she shifted her gaze to Louis and Mrs Sjiela,giving them a mischievious smirk. Aunt Zaya could already guess why Pedro was here in their house.

Pedro did inform Aunt Zaya that he might have a way to prevent the wedding and kick Scott out of Caroline's life forever. But he refused to tell her what the plan is and would only inform her when the plan becomes a success.

Seeing Pedro right here in their house Aunt Zaya knew Pedro has succeeded in what he wanted to do.

"Greetings,Mr Fernando." Pedro greeted.

"Good morning,Pedro. What brought you here so early? Have a seat." Mr Fernando inquired,ushering Pedro to sit on the comfortable sofa.

Pedro sat down on the golden coloured sofa,grabbed a glass of scortch and gulped it.

"You said you have news concerning Scott?" Caroline asked hastily.

"Scott? What happened to him?" Mr Fernando questioned with a confused look.

"It appears Scott isn't who he claims." Pedro uttered. "Behind that innocent face,lies a chronic criminal."

"Hey,Watch how you talk to him!" Caroline shouted in anger after hearing Pedro's words.

"Relax,Caroline." Mr Fernando tried to calm his daughter down. "What made you jump to that conclusion,Pedro? You know it's wrong to accuse someone wrongly."

"This isn't a false accusation,sir. There was a witness and also proof to what i say." Pedro sounded with a confident look as he sips his scortch.

"Tell me,what happened?" Mr Fernando inquired.

"You remember that item that was suppose to be shipped to Itlay later today?" Pedro asked,taking a sip and stealing a glance at Aunt Zaya.

"Yes,The item that was suppose to be sold to Bonucci for 3 Billion Dollars?" Mr Fernando asked.

"Yes,that  item. When i got to the office this morning,i found out it was missing." Pedro explained and Mr Fernando's eyes widened in surprise. "So i called in all the staffs and began to question them. After so many investigations,i later found out the person who stole it was Scott Carden."

"What?!" Mr Fernando and Caroline exclaimed together after hearing Pedro's words,while the rest of the menbers couldn't help but smile mischieviously.

"That's a lie. Scott is not a thief. You are making it all up." Caroline spoke in disbelief.

"Well,tye item was found inside his locker and the survelliance camera recorded him going into my office when there was no one else there." Pedro voiced out.

"I knew it. I know this boy was a poser!" Louis sounded from where he sat. "We shouldn't have trusted him. He is a poor hungry bastard who would go extra mile just to feed himself!"

"That's how those riff raff's are. They try to sneak thier way into a wealthy family just to steal from them." Mrs Sheila blurted. "He should be sentenced to jail for this!"

Caroline stood there trying to digest the whole thing. She was still thinking whether Scott would be able to do such a thing knowing fully well they were about to get married.

"I can't believe what i am hearing. Caroline,how can you bring in a criminal into this house to wed?!" Mr Fernando shouted in anger.

"Let's not jump into conclusions." Caroline finally spoke up. "Scott might have a logical reason for doing this. Let's just invite him over and ask him."

"There is no logical reason to this. The poor rag is a thief!" Aunt Zaya voiced out.

"Yes,Only God knows what would have happened if he had married into this family without getting caught!" Mrs Shiela backed up Louis.

"Let's just hear him out!" Caroline sounded.

"What's the use? He would only deny everything claiming he's innocent just to escape the situation." Louis replied.

"Caroline,Call Scott and tell him to come over right now." Mr Fernando ordered,causing everyone to keep quiet. Mr Fernando wasn't the type of person who only listens to one side of the story and judge based on what he heard. He liked to listen from both ends then decide the way forward.

Caroline took out her phone and dialed Scott's number. "Hello,my dad asked you to come over. It's important."

***

Scott already knew why he was being called by Mr Fernando. He guessed that Pedro must have gone to their house to inform them about the incident that happened earlier.

Scott knew once he tells Mr Fernando everything,the marriage would be over. There was nothing Scott could do since every single evidence was pointing towards him.

It was obvious that Pedro planted the bag inside his locker just to frame him and make him look like a bad person infront of the family. But there was nothing he could use to prove himself. If only he had enough time to dig out a concrete evidence that would make them believe him.

  Scott finally arrived in the mansion and walked into the living room and saw the whole family waiting for him with hateful glares.

    "Come with me." Scott uttered, turning around and moving forward, but the lady's arm still pulled him back."What about the body? Are we just going to leave it here?" She questioned, her eyes filled with fear.Scott glanced at her frightful look, before shifting his gaze towards the body once more, confused on what to do."There is a lagoon few blocks away from here. But before the lagoon, there is a police checkpoint. If we can get a truck or something, we can go there by midnight and dumb the body inside the lagoon." The lady spoke. "But for now let's hide the body somewhere." She added."That is too dangerous. What if the police finds it before we arrive midnight?" Scott asked. "Come on, help me a bit." Scott uttered, moving closer to the body and lifting it off the floor with all his might."What are you doing?" She asked in confusion."I live in a deserted area. There is no cop around there and there is hardly anyone living around there. It's locted three streets away from here."

The man laughed before sitting back down to continue his sleep.***Thunder runbling, wind blowing, and rain falling heavily. Scott sat inside the truck, his gaze fixed on the road as he drove through the street. The rain made it difficult for him to see clearly, and he was somewhat a beginer in driving because back home he had bunch of professional drivers that drove him anywhere he wanted to go.'Now i can freely dump this truck along with the body. That way i will get rid of all evidence and put an end to this case permanently.' Scott pondered, his hand on the steering and his gaze fixed attentively on the dark road.'I still have the issue with Mr. Fernando, so i have to fix all these and then focus on digging up an evidence.'

    Meanwhile… Elsewhere on Scott’s estate…In a quiet, deserted section of the property, four guards sat in a loose circle on wooden chairs, their flashlights clutched in their left hands while their rifles hung over their shoulders. The air was cool and thick with silence, broken only by the occasional rustle of leaves or the chirping of distant insects.They were stationed near the outer boundary of the estate—a less-traveled area that bordered dense woods. "I can't believe boss is back, man." One of the guards said, raising his plastic and sipping the gin he held in his right hand."I can't believe that after all these months he finally returned. Many said he was dead, some said he abandoned the empire because of all the responsibilities. But he's finally back." Another guard spoke up, and a joyful expression evident on his face."I'm really glad he's back. Even though I haven't met him or see him, I know he's a good and generous man. He increases our salary every month back then. No

    Scott walked up the staircase, ascending toward his room with slow, deliberate steps. When he reached the door, he paused for a moment before pushing it open. Scott stood silently at the threshold, his eyes sweeping across the space as a distant, unreadable expression settled on his face.The room was exactly as he had left it months ago. Not a single thing seemed out of place. There were no cobwebs in the corners, no dust blanketing the surfaces—clear evidence that the maids had continued tending to it regularly. They must have believed he would one day return, and they had kept it in perfect shape, almost as if time had stopped here."At least he didn't touch my room," Scott murmured to himself, stepping inside and gently closing the door behind him.He moved toward the bed and sat down heavily, leaning his elbows on his knees, his back hunched and his mind consumed with thought. His face remained expressionless, but his eyes told a different story—one of confusion, disappointment,

  • Welcome back, boss!

    Scott ran his fingers through his sleek black hair and paced back and forth on the raised platform. The things he was hearing now were vastly different from how things had been just months ago. It felt like everything had changed completely—as if he had been gone for years—yet it hadn't even been a full year since his departure."You mean Sandro never used the money I sent him to support the companies?" Scott finally questioned, his voice edged with disbelief."No, he didn’t," Kael replied audibly. "Whenever I told him the company was running low on cash, he would say we should manage because you hadn’t been answering your calls. The company was slowly going bankrupt because there was no money to sustain it. That’s why I took those loans.""Sandro?" Scott echoed bitterly. "How could he do this to me? I trusted him.""I don’t think now is the time for you to worry about that, boss. You literally just got back home after months. You should’ve told me you were coming—I would have—""What

    Kael stood motionless on the raised platform, a puzzled expression evident on his face as his eyes locked onto the sleek black car slowly driving onto the green field. The murmuring of the crowd faded into a tense silence as all heads turned to watch the vehicle approach. A thick wave of curiosity and unease swept through them, each person wondering who could possibly be inside.They all recognized the vehicle. It wasn’t just any car—it was a limousine reserved exclusively for the highest-ranking members of the empire. But all known high-ranking figures were already present on the field. The presence of this particular car raised an immediate and unsettling question: who else could it be?Down on the wooden platform, Jude Gallagher remained on his knees, his wrists still bound. He squinted at the advancing limousine, his breath caught in his throat. Then, slowly, a wide grin crept across his bruised face.“He’s… back,” he muttered softly, the words barely a whisper, yet somehow still

    The sleek black limousine kept driving through the street, and after what seemed like forever, they finally arrived inside an estate. This estate belonged to Scott, and tall mansions could be seen here and there. Scott sat in the car, examining the whole estate through the window."How I've missed this place," he mused with a smile, and the Limo kept driving forward. But Scott noticed something was wrong."Where is everyone?" he asked, raising a brow."They're all at the green field. Kael is going to execute Jude Gallagher today. The man betrayed the empire, and today is the day he will be judged," Jerry responded."Jude Gallagher? The accountant?" Scott questioned."Yes, sir. Kael recently discovered that Jude has been stealing money from the company. He’s been using the funds he stole to build a gang. Kael found his little territory where he kept his weapons—guns, daggers, machetes... and other ammunition. He’s also been using the money to hire men to work for him. Kael says he's be

    Elsewhere...Scott had already booked the flight and successfully paid all the bills. Now, he sat inside the plane after waiting for several minutes. He was seated by the window, and beside him was Ali. Ali had his head down, cold sweat trickling down his face as he muttered prayers under his breath.It felt like he was right back in Scott's jet, and it was crashing all over again. He hadn’t recovered from the shock and fear he felt during that incident, so right now, he was freaking out while sitting there.Scott, on the other hand, remained silent. His arms were folded, and his back leaned against the seat. His head was filled with thoughts, wondering how his home would look when he returned. It had been close to a year since he left, and he couldn't help but wonder how much had changed while he was away.He knew one thing for sure—things wouldn’t be the same. A lot must have changed, and many people might have even forgotten him.Scott pondered for several minutes, and when the pil

    Mr. Leeray grabbed the wooden table with a single hand and lifted it into the air, and he instantly spotted the man hiding under it. He tossed the table to the side of the room and shifted his gaze back to Joe. Joe's heart raced, his eyes filled with terror, and cold sweat trickled down his face. "What's the matter? Come on, rise up," Mr. Leeray gestured, and Joe hesitated. "I said rise up, man. You have no reason to be scared. As long as you do exactly what I tell you to do, we won't have a problem," Mr. Leeray added. Joe hesitated for a few seconds before rising up slowly. Before he could rise fully, Mr. Leeray grabbed him by the collar and picked him up aggressively. He moved swiftly to the wall and pinned him against it. "Please... don't kill me. I haven't wronged you in any way," Joe whimpered, and tears gathered in his eyes. "I won't kill you if you tell me what I need to know," Mr. Leeray spat, and his gaze fixed intently on Joe.

    The officer marched into the office, his expression fierce and unrelenting, his hands tightly gripping his AK-47. He scanned the room for a few tense moments before speaking.“Time’s up. Back to your cell,” he said, his voice deep and firm.“Remember what I told you. I’ll be back in two days,” Chief Jim whispered just as the officer approached Perez, grabbed him by the arm, and lifted him from his seat. Perez gave a silent nod, then exited the room alongside the officer.Shortly after they left, Chief Jim let out a heavy sigh and rose to his feet. He adjusted his shirt, smoothing out the creases with steady hands, before walking out of the room. As he stepped outside the station, the cool air met his face. He headed straight to his car, pulled the door open, got in, started the engine, and drove off without hesitation.---Somewhere else in the city…Inside the lavish living room of an opulent mansion, a towering man stood with commanding presence.

I’m breaking you all out of there,” Chief Jim affirmed.“What? How? How are you even going to do that?” Perez questioned.“I have a plan already. Don’t worry about that,” Chief Jim responded. “I just came here to fill you in and tell you to get yourselves ready.”“Okay, but why do you want to do it? Why are you so eager to get us out of here? I have a feeling it’s not because you don’t like seeing us behind bars,” Perez questioned.Chief Jim sighed heavily, then leaned his hands on the table. “The last time I came here to visit you, I told you Jordan was the
