Xavier stood there, his face as pale as he could imagine. He didn't expect to hear something like that. He never did. He was shocked to even hear it.

“Murdered, what do you mean by murdered?” He asked with raised brows which caused her to pause.

She knew he didn't know about this, but hearing this was something that could trigger him for now.

“You heard me right Xavier. She was murdered, and I know you won't be pleased when you find out who, but I am willing to help you find whoever it was, and make them pay.”

Angelica assured him more. All she wanted was his approval. She wanted him to know how serious she was to help him.

“How can you even say this? Where did you get this from, how–”

She interrupted him before he could finish speaking. “Join me, and I will give you all the info you need. You already know what I want. I am not asking for too much.”

Her heart drummed like never before, and she fisted her hands slamming them against the steering wheel with anger in her eyes. “Damn you Xavier. Why can't you just see I'm the only option you have at this point? You have no one but me!” She exclaimed, anger showing in every one of her words. She was pained about his refusals.

    Angelica's head was on fire, coupled with the investigator who had just passed out. Luckily for her, they had just arrived at the hospital. Immediately she arrived, she rushed out of the car, and the nurses at the emergency ward immediately charged towards her with a stretcher bed. Angelica moved out of the way, heaving while the nurses helped her. “Who's he?” They asked, wanting to know if she had any information about the man, but she didn't. He was her investigator, not her husband. “Just treat him. I don't know anything about him except his name being Mike. He's just a private investigator.” Angelica explained, running after them.

He came down the stairs with only a towel on and didn't seem to mind. "I think you would want to spend another week in a cell. Why are you barechested, and only a towel, seriously? Is that your seduction strategy?" She asked with raised brows and a thin smile on her lips. However, Xavier was quick to debunk her thoughts. "It isn't what you're thinking.

Kelanie smiled softly at her mother, one thing was certain, her mother was going to make it right.“No, she can’t come in here, she has done enough already, we can’t afford such bad press now” her father hissed.Kelanie frowned, “bad press?

    Xavier stood with a smug look on his face. This was just the cherry on the top, proving to kelanie that he was in fact Mr kareel’s son. Kelanie looked at the paper in her hand, they had stripped her of everything. She had no Alex, no money and definitely no house to stay. “Turn on the television,” Peggy said in a hurried tone ordering the maid that stood by the corner of the living room. “Tonight we would be airing a series which is a documentary on the life of Xavier Constantine and how he had missed a bullet, and the fails of a vengeful ex-wife kelanie Jenkins.” The air hostess said. Kelanie gasped, this was what melody was trying to warn her about. This was the show melody was gathering information about her for. Kelanie’s phone dinged, “there’s no way to hide, get my money ready,” the message read. Kelanie didn’t have to ask who it was, it was obvious the message was from Mr Russell.

Mr kareel wasn’t bothered about the appearance of the press, he was in turn going to give a speech at the end of the day. Mr kareel turned his gaze to Alex who looked like he was a few seconds away from passing out. “Alex,” Mr kareel called out gently. “fa.. Mr kareel,” Alex replied, fumbling over the words. It was obvious he was about to call Mr kareel father before he quickly caught himself. Mr kareel smiled, it was sad to see Alex go through the crimes Clarissa had committed. “I will be taking nothing from you, everything you have owned, they a

    Clarissa stood in shock, her first layer of armor had been taken away. Her lawyers had barely spared her a glance, standing with their faces to the ground. “Let’s take a trip down memory lane, shall we?” Mr kareel said enjoying the way Clarissa looked.“This is a forensic and post partum analysis I had done on my dead wife,” Mr kareel said giving the file to Peggy to pass the papers around.Xavier eagerly snatched the paper from Peggy’s hand, his eyes wide as he read through the details listed out.Xavier’s eyes watered as he saw a picture of his mother, her hazel eyes were a shade darker than his and Xavier could tell that he had gotten his nose from his mother.Angelica’s eyes watered, seeing the dejected look in Xavier’s face. She could feel how broken he was feeling and wished he didn’t have to sit through this.“I’m here,” Angelica whispered into Xavier’s ears, squeezing his palm softly, silently giving him comfort.Xavier nodded, his throat clogged as he read through the detail

    Mr kareel had always suspected the eagerness Clarissa had, she had used his mourning period to accomplish her plans. Mr kareel couldn’t remember what had happened, and all his life, he had never been that drunk to the point of blacking out. All Mr kareel could remember was waking up to a sobbing Clarissa in a room filled with bottles of alcohol littered around. The only person to fill in the gaps had conveniently been Clarissa, she had some how convinced the rest of the maids and workers to take a day off.It was also during the period that Mr Thompson was swamped in the office, since Mr kareel was too heart broken to function.The next few weeks were a blur to Mr kareel, all he had was Clarissa and a constant headache every morning from how heavy he had apparently been drinking.It was crazy how all Mr kareel could ever recall was just the first glass Clarissa had offered, and the rest was just a blank space of nothing.Clarissa had been very careful with her actions, she kept him

    Kelanie followed Alex around like a shadow. She was scared of Clarissa attacking her again. Kelanie frowned, watching Angelica and Xavier walk into the living room. If eyes were bullets, then Xavier and Angelica would have been six feet under by now. Kelanie knew it was Angelica that had made all these plans, trying to pay her back for everything she had done. “Fix your face” Alex hissed, looking at kelanie with an unimpressed look on his face. It was a wonder how kelanie still had the energy to hate people in this situation that they had found themselves in. Clarissa sat by the corner alone, glaring at kelanie who hasn’t left her son’s side for a minute. “she needs to leave,” Clarissa growled, pointing her fingers at kelanie. “She is a serpent who has done nothing but create havoc on this family,” Clarissa hissed. “nothing good has happened since she stepped into this house,” Clarissa hissed. Kelanie frowned, she couldn’t understand why Clarissa was still picking on her when

    The house was eerily quiet.The only sound that could be heard was Clarissa sniffling in the corner of the living room.The truth was dropped like a devastating blow, no one had survived it, at least for Kelanie and Clarissa.Xavier sat quietly in the room, his eyes had a forlorn look in them, he felt nothing but pity for Alex.It was devastating how Alex was the one suffering the brunt of Clarissa’s wrong doings.Xavier wasn’t much of Alex’s fan but he could only imagine how he must be feeling.“Father,” Xavier called out in a calm tone to his father.“something is on your mind,” Mr kareel said, hating the despair in Xavier’s eyes.“What is the plan for Alex?” Xavier asked in a soft voice, worry swirling in his eyes as he looked at his father.Mr kareel sighed, he wasn’t entirely heartless, he had made sure that nothing would be taken away from Alex’s trust fund account.“he is going to be sent off with enough money to start up something,” Mr kareel muttered.Relief washed over Xavie

Xavier rushed, pulling Angelica to his side, shielding her from the crazed woman. “Clarissa,” Mr kareel called in a low tone.Clarissa saw it in his eyes, his mind had been made up, there was nothing she could do any longer. “We have all been victims of your lies,” Mr kareel said. He wasn’t really in the mood to talk, he had accepted the truth a long time ago, he had only refused to make the information public so that he wouldn’t he burdened by the weight of it any longer. “My lawyers will contact you,” Mr kareel hissed, storming into the room.
