Andrew began to panic, what happened to his wife while he was gone. He tried entering the room again ,but he was grabbed by the two guards and dragged outside.

Andrew could not understand what was going on, but he knew he needed to get to the bottom of this. But when he was heading out the back door, he heard a familiar voice and followed it and it was his mother in law making a call.

"Yes, we have harvested Lily's kidney and heart after her fake illness, the drugs worked well and the doctors helped us," Mrs Nelson, the mother in law said on the phone call.

"Yes that fool she calls a husband doesn't suspect a thing, Paul will get her heart and kidney and Lily will die, that's why we adopted her after all, she was his walking donor, she grew up well," she continued with a cruel chuckle.

Andrew froze, he knew Paul the first child had heart problems and bad health, but did they fake her sickness to take her organs ,so no one will suspect a thing?

"What did you just say you did to my wife?" Andrew asked , stepping forward.

His mother-in-law turned immediately and saw him there, rolling her eyes.

"I don't know what you're talking about," she told him, ending the call quickly because she did not want him to get more suspicious.

"I just heard you say that you faked my wife's illness so that you can bring her to the hospital and take her heart and kidney. Don't you know that if you do that when she's alive, she would die?" Andrew asked his mother-in-law, his voice shaking with rage.

She rolled her eyes. "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Then what are you doing in the hospital? Why are you here, I didn't call you?” Andrew asked but she just scoffed.

“You know what, forget that, I want to see my wife. I don't understand but it seems like you are the family that came and took her body. You are no longer guardian, I am. So show me my wife," Andrew said as he took a step closer to his mother-in-law.

Out of nowhere, his father-in-law and two bodyguards rushed forward to step in front of him.

"Why are you harassing my wife?” Mr Nelson, his father-in-law asked him.

Andrew looked at this man. He knew very well Lily’s family did not take her as their own. She went to visit her parents weekly, and it was after her first visit to her parents that she became ill mysteriously. Until now, they did not know the solution to her illness. So hearing this now, he knew there was more to it.

"Where is my wife? It seems like you are the one who took her away. Take me to where my wife is, I want to see her," Andrew pleaded with his father-in-law.

"Did the doctor not inform you that she is dead?" Mrs Nelson asked him.

"If she is dead then show me her body." Andrew told him.

"Get him out of here," Mr Nelson said, and the two bodyguards walked forward and grabbed Andrew, dragging him away from the hospital.

"Let go of me, you criminals!” Andrew yelled fighting with bodyguards to let go of him.

“Someone please help me and call the police! They want to harvest my wife's organs while she’s still alive! This hospital is a criminal organisation, be careful of your loved ones who are here!" Andrew yelled at the top of his lungs, but that got him punched in the stomach, knocking the breath out of him.

"He is a madman, he escaped from my mental institution and came here to cause problems!" Mrs Nelson yelled ,so that the people paying attention to what he was saying would look away.

As if the hospital knew what to do, they immediately rushed forward, grabbed Andrew, and injected him with sedative, telling everybody there that he was a madman.

"We have been trying to catch him to put him in the mental institution, and he ran away. Don’t mind the nonsense he’s talking about, your family is safe in our hospital," one of the doctors who was working with his in-laws told the other patients as they took Andrew, tied him up, and took him into the hospital.

Andrew had already passed out because of the sedative they gave him, and when he woke up again, he was bound to the bed by hospital bands.

"What are you people doing? Let go of me! I want to see my wife!" Andrew yelled at the top of his lungs.

A doctor walked into the room and glared at him. "I don't understand the nonsense you pulled, but don't try that nonsense again. I have already told you that your wife is dead. If you want to see her body, then that is fine."

When the doctor told him that, he knew that something was awfully wrong.

"How long was I passed out?" Andrew asked the doctor.

The doctor rolled his eyes. "Long enough," he said.

Two bodyguards walked into the room and Andrew was let go, and the doctor took him to the morgue to see his wife.

When they got there, they opened the cover and it was his wife, but then he pulled off the cover completely and saw a fresh scar on her chest where her heart should be, and her stomach.

Andrew froze as tears stung his eyes, have they done to her?

Her body lay lifeless in front of him and it was because he was too weak to protect her.

"You told me that she died and I could not get the money for her treatment. So why was she operated on?" Andrew asked the doctor with a glare.

"Well she is a donor and we took the organs we needed." The doctor replied nonchalantly and Andrew began breathing heavily.

"That is a lie! My wife never signed any document like that. If she did I would know. Show me the documents." Andrew said.

"Look, you're making things difficult. For my sake and your sake as well, I think you should let this go, move on with your life and remarry, or else you end up like your wife," the doctor advised him.

He, who was in tears, grabbed the doctor by the collar. "What did you just say? I want to see my in-laws."

The doctor went to take him to where his in-laws were, and when he was getting there, he heard them say something.

"Yes, the operation has been done, my son is well."

Andrew charged at his father-in-law, punching him and knocking him down, but the bodyguards grabbed him and pinned him to the floor.

"Let go of me, you monsters! All of you are evil! So you killed my wife, even when she was alive, you harvested her organs to save your own son! How could such evil people exist!" Andrew yelled.

Mrs Nelson went to her husband’s aid and helped him get up.

"Make sure you take him somewhere very far away, beat him up, kill him and dump his body in a pit. I do not want someone like him bothering me in the future. Take him away," Mr Nelson ordered.

The bodyguard punched his face, knocking him out, and the next time he opened his eyes, he was tied up in a bush. The bodyguards who caught him were lying bloody on the floor, and a man was standing in between them.

"Who are you?" Andrew asked, and the man turned immediately and came to untie him.

And then when he untied him, he knelt down and bowed. "Young master, I have finally found you. I am your bodyguard. The master, your grandfather, is dead. You have to return to take the test and take over the empire."

"What are you talking about? I need to go to the police and report this crime. My wife was killed." Andrew said as he got up immediately.

"Do you think that you can fight against them without money and power? You should go there, they will kill you, and your wife’s death will go unavenged." The man's voice stopped him and he sighed, he clenched his fists helplessly, because he knew it was the truth.

"What should I do?" Andrew asked, because he needed a solution.

He knew what this strange man said was true. He had no power, and if he went against his father-in-law now, he would be dead.

"Come with me to train for the test. If you pass it, you can inherit the empire and all your enemies, you will get revenge." The man told him again and he turned to face the mysterious man.

"Then let's go. For all I know, Andrew Williams died here," he said as they walked away into the shadows.

    Andrew got a text from Alex before he closed for work. Alex wanted them to meet at their usual meeting spot. He slipped the phone into his pocket and headed for the elevator, but someone called him from behind. He turned and saw a young lady standing behind him.She looked somewhat familiar, as though he had seen her somewhere in the past, but he couldn’t remember where or when. She walked towards him, wearing a warm smile. Andrew was skeptical about her approach, but he stood still, and when she offered him a handshake, he shook her hand as though he knew her.“Longest time, Andrew,” she said, still wearing her broad smile. “Do you still remember me?”Andrew shook his head.“Oh, I don’t blame you for that,” she said. “But...” She searched her handbag and fished out an old picture. “I bet you will recognize this.”Andrew took the picture from her and gazed at it for a while. Old memories came rushing back. The lady in the picture was an old friend from his teenage years. She had left

    Mr. Nelson sat on his bed in his cell with his head bowed towards the floor. The last time he caught sight and scent of the world beyond the walls of his cell was the day he and his family were charged in court by the police. Now, not even his legal counsel was able to secure his release.The case had been adjourned. That meant he would have to stay a little longer in his cell before returning to court to bargain for his freedom and that of his family.Aside from the court hearing, he hadn’t seen or heard from the outside world since then. A prison warden stopped at his door with a baton. The warden knocked on the door with the end of his baton.“Mr. Nelson.”Mr. Nelson looked up. His face was heavy with worry and panic. The last thing he had ever wanted for himself and his family was to end up in jail for doing something they considered insignificant. To him and his family, Lily had served the purpose for which she was adopted in the first place. Now, the consequences of what they ha

    Though the police had strong evidence that the Nelsons could barely deny, their legal counsel managed to put up a good fight, leaving the court with no other choice but to adjourn the case. However, Andrew had already granted the press an interview, briefing them on what had happened to his wife and what the investigations had uncovered.The police spokesperson also did well to grant a press interview, stating that the evidence gathered by the police investigations department was glaring. No one could deny the fact that the Nelsons had murdered their daughter and offered her heart to the doctors for Paul’s urgent heart transplant.Though the Nelsons’ legal counsel did well to deny the allegations levelled by the police and Andrew, the news spread far and wide within a matter of hours. Andrew knew how fast news travelled, but he hadn’t expected the allegations levelled against the Nelsons to spread so quickly.They were supposed to have a top-notch damage control agency helping them wi

    Andrew wasn’t in a hurry to meet up with the police, but he arrived at the police station early enough to witness the arrival of the Nelsons’ lawyers. Indeed, the Nelsons had the fastest and most formidable legal team in the city, but even the best lawyers in the world wouldn’t be able to do much in their case. Andrew knew that, so nearly bumping into the lawyers arriving for their prestigious clients meant nothing to him.He parked at a safe corner, some distance away from the vehicle the Nelsons’ legal team arrived in. Alex undid his seat belt and alighted first while Andrew turned off the ignition and followed suit. The both of them marched to the entrance of the police station, and to Andrew’s shock, a group of press people blocked his way, holding microphones and cameras to his face.“Sir…”Alex waited by the door for Andrew to finish with the press, but Andrew didn’t seem interested in talking to anyone aside from the investigators and, probably, his lawyers. He pushed his wa

    Tina and Nina were home alone.This was the first time in a very long time that they had been left alone at home because everybody had been arrested, and they were making calls frantically, looking for a way to get their parents out of jail."Please, sir, look into this. My parents cannot just be arrested without much evidence. They did nothing," Tina pleaded with the lawyer who was speaking with her on the phone."Miss Tina, evidence was brought against your family, and your parents have a weakness that they ordered someone to do something evil, so I cannot get them out of jail now," the lawyer informed her.Tina bit her lower lip.She did not understand how bad things were happening to them one after the other because, right now, she did not know what to do. Her father was the main person running the company, and she and her sister had to go to the company to tell the shareholders and everybody that what happened was a misunderstanding. Instead, they were just bombarded with questio

    Andrew ambled straight to the parking lot downstairs. Work these days was no longer something he gave much of his attention to. Everything had lost its taste the moment his wife lost her life, the moment he set eyes on her corpse.He swallowed. People seemed to have noticed his indifference to almost everything existing around him since his wife’s passing. He made for his car, but as he approached it, he saw the parking lot’s security guard standing beside it with a white envelope.The security guard approached him as soon as he showed up.“Sir, someone asked me to deliver this to you. He said it’s from your ex-in-law, Paul.”Andrew shrugged the guard aside and made for his car. He gave the car a quick inspection just to be sure nothing had been planted in it, then he threw open the door and hopped in.The security guard came to his window and gave it a gentle knock. Andrew wound down the window.“Sir, aren’t you…”“Do you want to get fired as early as tomorrow morning?” Andrew asked.
