A HINTOfficer Joshua looked over at the time on his phone. Just a little past four seven O’clock in the evening/ He’d taken a short dinner while he awaited Raymond’s call for the evening operation they had landed out.Opening the drawer in front of him right by the side of his bed in a little country old home. He sighs in relief, relating to the stress and pain he has to face to get the truth from all his investigations. The cell phone on the short night stand suddenly begins to chime like a little baby toy.He looks over, stretching his legs and hands out of place to get the phone. Apparently there is nothing he could do about David at the moment until he is sure with evidence of course. He grabs the cell phone and places it to his ear. “Hello” he speaks in a very clear but croaky tone.‘Well, I have been waiting for your call, give me a minute’. He spoke into the phone before letting it lay down on the stand again. Rushing to his wardrobe with the speed of light he grabs his cloak
EVERYONE'S A SUSPECT Maven was seated on her lush sit, stretching from long hours of working when the knock came on her door. With the secret guards Thomas had mounted at her door she isn’t scared of having any nonchalant visit from her uncles or David. Grandma seldom shows up in the office during working hours so she isn’t scared at all. When the door opens and she finds Officer Joshua strolling in, his intimidating figure maneuvering its ways through the door, she had a brilliant smile starched on her face waiting to receive him. “Good day Ms. Taylor, you seem to have a very busy day”. He spoke to her. “Good afternoon officer Josh. Any update yet?” She asked him with her eyes dancing and taking his face at the same time for a hint that would console her doubts. If her family name isn’t cleared out from the heavy lips of bloggers it was going to be a lifetime stigma on them. For now no client or investor had threatened to withdraw operations and she could tell that they were all h
I DON'T LIKE HIMGrandma sat on her couch with legs stretched forward when David entered the living room.“Have you come with any evidence?” grandma asked David the moment she caught sight of David walking inside.“I don't have yet”. David answered.“Then why are you here? If Maven is responsible for what happened like you said then you should have some sort of evidence to back up your points isn't that so David?” Grandma didn't raise her up at him for a second. “I have plans to dig out the truth from her. Trust me when I say this is all Maven's plan to run off with the company funds”. David was very much assertive.“You can't be so sure”. Grandma raised her eyes to look at him for a minute. “Look I have seen games like this play out and the Maven that I know is too weak to.plan such except ahw is getting help from someone”. Grandma's eyebrows were raised to the peak as she spoke about Maven. “Things like this should be investigated before being brought out. Maven has no sponsors ap
I HAVE NO IDEA The moment David saw the officers approaching the building his countenance changed. The first knock on the door made him curl up in bed. He had seen them drive into the yard from his window. “What the fuck are they doing here this early?” He had questions in his heart as he curled up in bed. He has no fear and whatever they were here for they were going to make the decision of finding it or leaving without proof. He had proposed in his heart to stay in bed not until his father came in to call him. “Son the police are here and they need you for some questioning”. His father told him in a very cold tone. “What do you mean, the police are here for questioning. We know nothing about the case and that's it!”. David snapped His broad shoulders rolling on the bed as he drags the comforter over his head. “Come on now. Keeping them waiting means we are hiding something”. Patrick said. “And what exactly could that be? Dad, we have absolutely nothing to hide from them.
Broken“What was that about?” Betty asked, giving Rowan a suspicious look. She stared straight into his eyes, and out of guilt, Rowan looked away.“What do you mean?”.Rowan inquired as he wiped the invincible dirt off the white bed cover with his hand before sitting comfortably on the edge of the bed.“I saw the way you looked at her, Rowan. Don't act dumb with me." She barked at him like he was some kid from the kindergarten a few blocks away.“I don't know what you are talking about, and I don't care. Alright, can I just have my peace? Rowan requested with his hands raised in frustration.“I saw the way you looked at her. You still love, don't you?” Betty pestered. She moved up to him and sat by his side.“Drop it, Betty. I just need to be alone.”Rowan protested.“Wait! Are you asking me out of your house?”. Betty asked coldly. She searched his face for any trace of unseriousness, but it seems Rowan was even more serious than she thought he was.“You can sit anywhere, Bett. You are
THE STRANGE OBSERVATION Officer Josh has always suspected something fishy with the way the young lad David acts each time they come for interrogation with any member of the family. Of course he has worked for much stronger cases and he knows when the architect of a crime is trying to either implicate others or run away from the truth. He squinted his eyes a bit while sitting in the tinted SUV. This is definitely a case he is very much interested in and if only he can prove his superiors wrong he would get the promotion. He pulled out the monster drink from the cooling flask and cracked the crown open. He had been giving new teammates to work with instead of the other officers assigned him before and now that the case was getting really serious there was absolutely nothing he could do about it. Nine years of working with the FBI was no damn joke. This is the only way he had to prove his intelligence and this was the first time leading a team on his own. “I don’t think we would
I AM SCARED The next morning the entire T&T vicinity was filled with cops and state security agents. Maven has done her part by giving them the information she knows and how she can help the little way just so the truth is out. Grace was sitting behind her desk but from time to time she would check the window and look down at the street. She knows that the cop will do a good job digging at all the evidence but then something was off about the entire process. Seeing that David and his father had not come to work for some days since the incident even makes it more suspicious but how does she tell this to her boss. When Mavens door flung open she sprang to her feet. “Send the email Grace. The meeting isn’t held until all of this is over”. She said then closed the door almost immediately. Grace ran off following her boss into his office. “Is everything alright ma’am”? Maven asked her with her eyes questioning every one of Mavens decisions. “You know the problem on the ground already.
A QUICK INTERROGATION The state security agents are part of the investigative team and I need you to take a good look at it”. Thomas said to the man over the phone. His shoes clicked on the ground as he walked straight to his office. His face held a little bit of disappointment. “This is the fourth day. These men shouldn’t take so long to hunt whomever is involved in this mess.” He spoke. The man looked at him and then back at his colleagues who was standing right next to him in the office. “Oh! I think we need to do more work than we have done. For now we have no evidence and we have tried to trail the number that called Ms., Taylor yesterday’. The man said. “I think there is an insider”. The man said. “You think so? Then you should begin an investigation immediately. Maven doesn’t think anyone in her family has a hand in this but with the way things are going I can tell you that something is cooking in there without her knowledge”. Thomas was so sure of his words and he knows t
"You have to understand my situation, Summer. I can't reject her. I can't hurt her." He pleaded, a look of helplessness on his face, making me chuckle.I could not believe him! After everything, am I the lesser option?"You can't reject her, but you'll cut off all ties with me in a heartbeat? You can't hurt her. Then what about me? Is it okay to hurt me instead? I yelled at him.This is so unfair! As much as I want to run to Alex and tear him into pieces, I can't bear to do it. He must have found it easy to hurt me, but I can't do that to him. My heart will break into millions of pieces if I do that.Pathetic right? Well, yes, I have always been pathetic all my life. Otherwise, why would my family despise me to the core?"Summer, don't make things difficult for both of us. I have found my mate, and she is what I want. I am sorry if I raised your hopes. I thought you'd turn out to be my mate." He explained, or should I say he attempted to explain?"You promised Alex. You promised me tha
