Their Calls
"Well, Mr. Caleb Gavins, you seemed to have just confirmed that you know the witness already. Thank you for that," Edward's lawyer smirked, walking towards the lady in the witness box for questioning.Caleb's mouth widened. He wanted to protest, but it was like something had trapped his tongue, so he just stared. His lawyer rubbed his palms together. Why was his client making the whole case get worse and worse?The fact that Caleb seemed not to tell him everything that was going on was making him get tired of the case. The reason he had agreed to be Caleb's lawyer was because he was the fifth richest man in Goldmere. He paid him really well. But now, he was already considering quitting before he put his career in fire because of this man.Still, he managed to disagree with what Edward's lawyer had said. "My client never said that. He is just shocked as more and more witnesses are coming up without any tangible evidence against him."Edward's lawyer glanced at him for a moment before
The Woman In The Veil
Junior Tank stood up then walked to the window, his eyes glancing at the sky. He stood there for a few seconds, thinking of what to do. He inhaled deeply, making up his mind. He quickly walked to his bed, searched through his contacts, and his eyes rested on a particular number.He had secretly sourced for the number a few days ago. He exhaled, then sent the attachment to the number with a write-up. 'Do whatever you deem fit with this evidence.'After the message was sent, he decided to step outside to feel the cool breeze of the evening. His mind was filled with so many thoughts. After a while, he decided to head somewhere.He entered his car, then drove to a supermarket. He picked a few toiletries, provisions and flowers, then sent them to an address before heading home.His father had done so much. The little he could do was at least try to correct some of those things. He exhaled, his eyes fixed on the road ahead as he drove back to the hotel.***The next day, Ethan was escorted
Junior Tank
Caleb turned slowly, his heart hammering against his ribs as his gaze moved around the room.Police officers lined the warehouse entrance, their weapons pointed at him.For a moment, all he could think about was running.But he pushed the thought away. One wrong move and they would shoot him before he made it two steps.He could still get away, he told himself, drawing a sharp breath. There has to be a way."Caleb Gavins, I said put your hands on your head!" one of the officers barked, keeping his eyes fixed on Caleb.Caleb's mind raced as he looked around, thinking of what to do. Then an idea came to him.He forced his face into an expression of confusion and spread his hands apart."Hey, man... what's happening here?" he asked, making his voice sound as innocent as possible. "Why am I being surrounded like some criminal? I haven't done anything. I know I have cases in court, but I haven't been found guilty. I've been diligently attending every proceeding."He slowly lowered his hand
The Hunter was haunted
The drive stretched on for several minutes, Ruby and Caleb both unaware of the plans the other held.Ruby's car swerved into a narrow side street before pulling up outside a modest building. She stopped the engine and sat still in the car for a moment, scanning the quiet street through her rearview mirror.Caleb slowed his car a block away. He watched her through the car glass, waiting until she climbed out and disappeared through the building's entrance before he moved. From the center console, he retrieved a pistol, then tucked it into the waistband of his trousers, then he stepped out.He moved towards the building, his footsteps silent against the pavement. The place was clean enough, but it was far from the luxury he had introduced to her all these years.This is where she's hiding? he thought, a mocking scoff escaping his throat.The woman who had worn his name, who had dined in Goldmere's finest establishments, was now settling for this cheap thing? She had never earned a singl
The Devil's Apprentice
Caleb felt his throat tighten. How the hell had they gotten their hands on such information?His eyes swept through the congregation, searching for two familiar figures, but when he didn't see them, he concluded they were still on the run. He had been too busy yesterday to have time to go find that mother and son. But he didn't dwell on it, knowing there was no way Ethan would be allowed to leave Goldmere since he had an ongoing rape case, which meant Ruby and Ethan were still in Goldmere because Ruby wouldn't leave her son behind.With what the lawyer said, one thing kept Caleb's mind calm and steady 'there was no way they would find out it was him' He was completely sure of that. In the end, it would all lead to a dead end, and they would have no choice but to let him go.But then his breathing completely stopped at the next thing Edward's lawyer said."We have the evidence to support the claim that Mr. Gavins here has been the one sending out these payments."He extended a file i
Not Guilty
"Wait... What, how is that even possible?" Adriana couldn't help her curiosity, so she asked immediately. "Was she really bold enough to record everything?""We've been working on it, but I didn't want to disturb you until we had something tangible," Edward explained carefully."The drugs administered to her were listed?" Adriana asked."Well... Yes," Edward replied, nodding as though Adriana could see him."Can I come check it out?" Adriana asked.Though she was mad at Camila, she still knew there was no way she was going to stop helping her. She was going to find justice for her sister. Another thing Adriana kept wondering was that since Camila was behaving this way, it was definitely because of the trauma she had passed through, so she might be thinking this was the best way she could help herself. With that thought, Adriana renewed her promise. She was going to be with her sister and help her heal, no matter how hard it turned out to be.She sprang to her feet and headed for the d
