The afternoon was gradually fading away to pave for the evening to set in.

Emily is still having a difficult time escaping from her room as she fears that her father might be lurking around somewhere monitoring her movement so he can grab her phone which has all the answers to his questions.

Her father might not be against her friendship with Stephanie, but he certainly cares so much about his daughter's safety and would do anything to guarantee that.

Hearing Emily speak about Stephanie's father's death raised his eyebrows that his daughter knows too much which would, of course, pose a threat to her life.

While he tries to make Emily open up to him as her father, she's proving obstinate and refusing to trust him enough with sensitive information, not after he had previously cajoled into a marriage against her wish. The last thing Emily would do right is make the same mistake by trusting her father again.

Moments later, Emily's prayer was answered after she heard the sound of a veh

    Emily's resilience."Good to have y'all gentlemen seated here. I have always waited for a moment like this to come and it had," Chris smiled and stretched his hand for a handshake but unfortunately he was ignored. They left his hands hanging in the air. Out of shame, he quietly dropped his hand and swallowed his shame."I understand your frustrations and I take all the blame. I should have stuck to time. Let me start by apologizing for keeping y'all waiting for so long. I had to quickly attend to something very important to enable me to focus on her meeting. It would have been inappropriate if I kept getting distracted while the meeting was going on. Yeah! That's what happened," Christian apologized after arriving in the conference room. He knew he was in for some big trouble when no one responded to his greetings. Christian wasn't angry by their snub as he already knew it was going to happen anyway. Rather than telling them the reason for his delay, he had to apologize again so he w

    Mission possible.Christian arrived at the hospital premises alongside the others after a fast ride."We are here now. What do we know? I'm so eager to know,"Emily asked Christian. Her soul burns in rage and she can't wait to deal with the doctor who wants to take advantage of her best friend "I'm talking to you, Christian. Are you ignoring me? What's next?" Emily tapped Chris while he was racking his head."What's the matter with you? Can you please stop doing this already?Can't you see I'm trying to think of the best solution to avoid any mistakes? You're just making this difficult for us," Chris yelled at her. He wasn't pleased that interrupted his meditation. "You should have told me rather than ignoring my call. You made me look like a fool in the presence of everyone.This isn't the time to keep mute. You ought to have decided on our next plan. We can't afford to waste time right now,""I owe you no explanation, Emily. If you're wise enough, you would know what's happening w

    Stephanie's awakening. “What's happening to her? Why's she not responding to treatment? You gave me your words, Jayden. You assured me she was going to be just fine. What's the use of the antidote if it wasn't going to help revive her?” Chris slammed Jayden after the antidote he infused in Stephanie's system failed to revive her. Rather, it made her condition more complicated.“I really can't tell why it's not working. In equally confused as you are. I trust my antidote so well. This isn't the first time I'm using it. It has worked on other patients, and Stephanie isn't an exception. I think there's a problem somewhere I need to figure out,” Jayden said as he looked scared that Chris was going to hurt him.“Shut your gutter-infested mouth. You're not even making sense, right? I thought you were a professional doctor. Can you just listen to yourself speak? What are we going to do now? She's not even showing any sign of recovery. Are you sure she's going to survive this?” Emily questi

    The investigation."I'm hurting. Please help me. I don't want to die. I don't know if I can hold on for too long." Scar rolled on the ground as he pleaded for help."What do you want me to do now? I'm neither a medical Doctor nor a surgeon.You brought it upon yourself and you should have yourself to blame. Only if you had listened to me and complied with us, you wouldn't have been shot." Job was proud of the decision to shoot Scar. He wasn't even bothered if Scar was going to survive the gunshot."You must be insane to believe I'm stepping an inch outside. The man on the ground is my friend and brother. We've been through a lot together and there's no way I am leaving here without him. He needs to get help. Can't you see that he's losing blood already? Are we just going to walk away and abandon him to die?" Chris confronted the officer while he was still handcuffed."Hmm!" Job sighed after gazing at Scar a thousand times. He may be a detective but he still has an atom of pity for Scar

    Jayden's fall.Emily can't get over her father's presence. He was the last person she expected to see."Officer, my daughter is innocent. Can you please let her go? She needs to come home with me," Emily's father pleaded for her innocence. Emily might be stubborn but certainly not a murderer."Dad, please stop. Don't do this please," Emily shunned her father."Emily, what are you doing? I'm trying to defend you. You should be happy about that." "Happy? You killed that happiness the moment you walked in and told Chris about Stephanie's death. Your statement is the reason we are still on this case," she scolded him.After realizing his mistake, Emily's father apologized. "I'm sorry. I didn't intend to hurt you. Is there a way we can work it out? I know you're innocent. There must be a mix somewhere,""Work it out? I doubt if that will ever be possible. Just pray I don't end up in jail."Where's Stephanie? I need to speak to her this minute. It's very urgent. Can someone please go cal

    Traitor.The sky is continuously cloudless and dark, paving the way for darkness to take charge. The weather was becoming increasingly cold which signaled an apparent heavy downpour. It's 7 pm already and they're still sleeping on the case. "Can someone please take these handcuffs off my hands? It's messing with my skin and making me so uncomfortable," Christian requested. He has endured the pain for so long bad couldn't bear it anymore. The handcuffs were too harsh on Chris's skin which made him have a bit of bruises."Okay. Just hold on a second. I'm coming to do that now," one of the cops walked towards Christian intending to unlock the cuffs with the keys when Detective Job leaned forward to snatch the keys from him."If you move an inch from there, I'll ensure you join the suspects. Are you insane? How dare you go contrary to my order? On whose order are you operating?" Job scolded the cop."I was just trying to set him free, sir.I thought the case was sorted out already?""S

Doctor Mario dashed inside Stephanie's ward with a document in his possession. Stephanie's conversation with her Mom was fruitful as they made peace and vowed to improve each other. Personally, Mrs. Rolando instructed everyone to join them inside the ward while she used the opportunity to apologize to Chris for treating him like a piece of trash while he was married to her daughter, Stephanie. The whole family is set to put the past behind them and embrace a new beginning that would be beneficial to everyone. Stephanie's near-death experience made them realize that there's more to life rather than beefing each other. "Not at all. Doctor Mario." Stephanie smiled. "I'm glad you're here with us.You came at the right time. We were just discussing my discharge date before you showed up. What's the update, doctor?" "Somewhat Positive if I must

    Family ties."How do you feel now?" Chris asked Stephanie while she lay on her sick bed. She had her bandages wrapped around her head to enable a speedy recovery. It's not even 48 hours yet and Stephanie has lost much weight due to the excess bleeding from her head."I feel some type of way right now. I just can't explain. I can't wait to stand on my feet again." Stephanie responded in a faint voice as she held Chris's hands so passionately and stared directly into his eyes, "Thank You!""For? I can't recall doing anything," Chris responded to pretend he didn't know what she was talking about."Come on, Chris. Don't act like you don't know. Of course, you know what I meant. Thank you for everything. I wasn't expecting you to come through for me in my distress and trust me, I don't take your kindness for granted. I want you to know that I appreciate everything you do for me and more," Stephanie buttressed and displayed her heartfelt gratitude. She forgot to address the horrible texts s

    Mrs. Rolando's venom.Heavy falls of snow in June are not uncommon, and only for a short time towards the end of July are the nights exempt from light frosts.The climate is hot and humid in the lowlands and along lower places, but in the uplands, it is dry with high temperatures and a cool atmosphere.Mrs. Rolando hasn't shown up yet and everyone's worried. Her hastiness would determine how fast Stephanie would get better."Have you figured out what to do? We don't have plenty of time to gamble around," Doctor Mario asked Chris. He was taking a stroll when he saw Chris and Emily standing at the reception. He expected Chris to have fetched Stephanie's family members previously discussed in his office."I know, Doctor. I'm working towards that I just called her mom and she'll be here pretty soon. Just buy us more time, please," Chris pleaded.Emily wasn't paying attention to their discussion.

His mind went blank the moment Mario disclosed traces of narcotics found inside Stephanie's system."I'm fine! I am just trying to process everything. I'm still in shock.' Christian placed his head on Mario's desk to nurse his pain.Christian is quite aware that Mario is telling the truth but he's scared to admit it. He would rather pretend not to know to avoid Mario from suspecting that Stephanie is into drugs. He wishes he could visit Jayden at the station and strangle him with bare hands. He's the reason they're into this mess."I want to ask an important question and I'll need you to be honest with me. Can you do that?" Mario asked."Sure!" Chris nodded in a faint voice. His baritone voice has disappeared mysteriously without a trace due to the overwhelming situation.Narrowing his gaze around his office, Mario slowly whispered, "Is Stephanie a drug addict?"

    Compound Woes"She's not even responding, Chris. Please assist me in taking her inside," Emily begged Chris. Stephanie is losing a lot of blood and Emily isn't about it. Just when she thought their problems were over, Stephanie's accident gave me another reason to trap them back inside the hospital's premises."Where are we taking her to? I know a nearby hospital where Stephanie would receive the best treatment. Let's get her inside my car," Christian said. He knew where Emily was driving but he just wanted her to spell it out."What sort of question is that? Why take her elsewhere when we are in the right place?Can't you see that we are in the hospital already? We should carry her inside where she would be treated inside." She responded with a harsh voice."Hell no! There's no way Stephanie would be treated in this same hospital. Have you forgotten what happened recently? To me, this hospital is bad news and must be avoided at all costs." Chris instructed at the expense of Stephani

    Breaking free.Brandy gritted his teeth, remembering how confident he was a couple of minutes ago. He doesn't feel the same anymore and fears the worst that's about to him. His sense of loss was so deep, that he thought it'd kill him some nights.He paced around the cell for a couple of minutes in his prison uniform looking restless. He can't withstand the pressure anymore."Calm down, bro. It'll be fine. You've got nothing to worry about. You've been restless since we got here. We don't need that negative energy right now. We just need to stay positive." Jayden walked up to Brandy and calmed his nerves. It's crazy how you're calming the same person you're banking on for your freedom."Get your hands off me. You're in no position to say that to me. How dare you ask to stay calm when you know the situation already? You don't expect me to sit down and fold my arms right? I'm working towards my freedom unlike you with no plan. My Dad isn't picking up his calls or responding to his texts

    Reconciliation Christian wasn't bothered about his potential arrest initially because he was quite confident of his innocence. He even made a declaration of becoming a Freeman who finally came to a manifestation.“I'll be going home at last. It's been a crazy adventure.” Chris smiled. He was so elated that he was going home. There's no greater joy than seeing Brandy and Jayden being arrested by the cops. If Chris was allowed to have his revenge on them, he doesn't mind shooting them in the head and watching them bleed to death. At least once in his life, he was able to do the right thing when it mattered.“Mark!” Chris halted Mark.“Where are you going? Please come back to me. There's something critical I need to discuss with you.We still have unfinished business.,” Christian called Mark when he noticed how scared Mark had become since he explained to everyone how Brandy destroyed everything. “Unfinished business? What are you talking about? Please make it make sense to me becau

    The Escape route.“What's running through your mind now, Brandy? Doesn't it bother you that you might be spending the rest of your life in jail for committing a serious crime? You haven't spoken a word since we entered this vehicle. Are you planning on something I should know about?” Jayden whispered silently as the cops drove them to the station. He's noticed how unbothered Brandy has been lately.“Nothing special. I don't have Skeleton up my sleeves. I just have this peace of mind that can't be explained. I'm certain my Dad would come for me pretty soon. I've got absolutely nothing to worry about,” Brandy boasted. He isn't bothered by the arrest because he knows it's just a matter of time before his father comes through for him. When the cops got Brandy's declaration that Brandy would be arrested, he never argued or fought with them. Majestically, he smiled and walked his way into their vehicle, while Jayden kept arguing and pleading for a second chance at freedom again.Brandy's

    Brandy's antics."Emily, is he telling the truth? I need you to be honest with me. You're the only one I could trust right now. Brandy is a jerk. No truth comes out of his mouth.I don't want to believe that Brandy erased all the data. What gave him the nerves to do that?" Chris focused his attention on Emily. She was the only person that wouldn't lie to him. He doesn't want to believe Mark's explanation even though it seems legit."I hate to admit this but it's nothing but the truth. Mark already said it all. If I wasn't there, I wouldn't have agreed to what he said. Everything happened right in front of me. You know what? I don't want to talk about this anymore. It saddens my heart each time I remember what happened out there.My head's spinning right now and I don't want to fall sick.," Emily narrated her ordeal in a soft tone. She's gradually losing her voice each time she opens her mouth to speak. She vowed never to speak until they reached the conclusion."Over to you Brandy. E
