Marcus and Callum walked silently to the interrogation room where Eric was already seated and twiddling his thumbs. They saw him first from the windows before they entered the room through the door. Marcus took a seat first before Callum did and pulled out a recorder and a notepad that he could jot on. Callum flipped through his note pad looking for the questions he had meticulously wrote down to ask while Eric and Marcus stared at one another, one not really knowing where this interrogation would lead and the other confused as to why he was even in the interrogation room being accosted by a family member. Callum found what he was looking for and broke the ice. He turned on his recorder.“This interrogation is being carried out by Detective Callum Bennet. Marcus Wei is sitting in on the interrogation. The suspect is his uncle, Eric Wei.”After Callum had introduced himself to the recorder for reference purposes, he turned to Eric and began the interrogation.“Mr. Wei, you are here as

Ever since the impromptu meeting that Marcus had attended with his family, the emotions in the mansion had shifted. While some people were rallying up against the police force and whoever they thought had put them up to framing Eric, the rest of them were confused at what had happened and right now, had no idea what route to take. Mostly because they trusted Eric but it all seemed very convenient. One of the latter being Marcus, already had something working in the background as the house was in a state of utter confusion. He sat in his room, at his workstation trying to wrap his head around not only the whole Eric situation but also the standing of the company in terms of their records when he received a call from Lori. He had called her earlier hoping that she could help him find something that could prove that his uncle was either innocent or guilty like Callum had insisted but something felt off.“Hey. You’re calling very early. Do you have anything yet?” Marcus spoke as soon as

Marcus left the mansion in a hurry with the new found knowledge that his uncle had been watching him. It irked him as he got into his car wondering how long Eric's spying had been going on. He knew that there were cameras at every inch of the mansion but he didn’t think that his uncle would be keeping such a close eye on him. Now that Lori's family had been taken by Eric, of that he was sure, he had no choice but to turn in the evidence that they had just uncovered. It was annoying that Callum was right to say the least, but he couldn't risk having anything bad happen, especially to Lori's little brother. She would never recover from that and he would blame himself explicitly. Marcus swerved through the streets trying to decide whether to go to the police station and tell Callum what had just happened or to go straight to a place he knew could disable the cameras of his prying uncle without being noticed.As he made his next turn he noticed that a car turned with him. It wouldn't ha

“Another thing. I need that laptop back. It’s important that I get it back.” Marcus said as he turned back to the smirking men, wanting to get one thing straight. That laptop was still important. One of them shook his head. “We can’t. We still need to get paid by our previous employer.” He said, a small sneer forming on his face. “Do you still want me to pay you or do you want nothing?” Marcus slightly threatened. “What do we tell him when he asks?” Green eyes asked. Marcus rolled his eyes as he couldn’t believe that these men were able to kidnap people in broad daylight and not be caught but can’t lie to save their own lives. It was truly unbelievable. It was a let down. “Tell him that you got the evidence and destroyed it. As for me, let him know that you couldn’t kill me. I went straight to the police while the girls came over here and did the exchange themselves. Assure him that you’ll keep on trying and soon enough, you’ll have me killed.”The men glanced at one another bef

Marcus, Rachel, Micah and Elias got down from their respective cars and walked into the precinct where the evidence Marcus had promised was waiting in Coleman’s safe of personally kept evidence. Marcus looked around to make sure that they weren’t being watched and when he was sure that the coast was clear he entered into the building with the rest of his family.Some officers stood up at the mere sight of almost all the Wei family entering the precinct. It had never happened. At least, not after they had been here asking for help to find their son Marcus in the past. It was a rare sight as most of them knew that this family liked to handle their businesses on their own most times and if they were all here at the same time then something wrong was going on. The officers greeted them as they walked by and as Marcus led them straight to Eric Coleman’s office. The same man his uncle had introduced him to.“Who is it?” Coleman shouted out as he heard a rap on his door. The door opened up
