Chapter One Hundred And Twenty Three
Max felt like his heart was sliced into tiny pieces, overwhelmed by so many emotions that he could not fathom. But as he froze right there, it felt to him like he had misheard. “What did you say?”“You heard me Max or do I have to scream it out to the whole hospital, I murdered Mrs. Bennett”“Mrs. Bennett, who is she?” Max was confused. He knew that Zara was the only female Bennett in the family and, since she wasn't married, he was not sure why his sister would address her that way.“Are you dumb brother? "I killed Zara's mother!” She finally explained, several emotions were flooding inside of him, mixed with confusion.“Zara's mom is alive?”“Yes, I had no idea about that until I was at their mansion. "I am so sorry, Max, everything happened so quickly and before I knew what was going on, she was already dead.She kept on mumbling through her words with the fear that was consuming her.“You need to calm down. How did it happen?”“We didn't have time to explain that. I told her I wa

Once Ethan is done speaking to his sister, he walks over to the police. “Good day detective!”“Mr. Bennett” the detective muttered as they both went ahead and shook hands. “I am sorry for your loss, but I can assure you that we will do everything in our power to find out if someone was truly responsible for this. In the meantime, we will need your permission to perform an autopsy on her.”“Go ahead, anything you need to find who did this”. Ethan gritted his teeth, trying so much to remain calm.He stood there as he watched them collect the rest of the samples from there. Once they were done collecting all the evidence that they would be needing, they all left and just then, Sasha hurried in.“Ethan! "What is going on?” There was fear in her eyes, even though she had lived here for a day, she was trying to stay away from Ethan as much as she could and only came out as soon as she heard the commotion.“My mom is dead!” He blurted the words so fiercely like it didn't hurt.“What! "How di

When Max left the hotel, he immediately received a call from one of the nurses at the hospital informing him that his father was awake, but he wasn't there, neither was his sister.Max quickly got into his car and drove over to the hospital, arriving there. Henry was looking much better. He sat upright at the end and tried to scoop some spoonful of soup that had been handed to him by the nurse.“Dad! Dad! "How are you feeling? "Does it still hurt anywhere?” Max asked anxiously as his gaze trailed through his entire body.“I am fine son”, Henry widened his lips in a smile, making the wrinkles around his eyes more visible. “I know that I must have scared you and your sister. I am truly sorry about that.”“Who is talking about that? None of that matters right now, all that matters is the fact that you are alive and well”Both men finally relaxed before Henry proceeded to ask. “I heard it was an expensive surgery and my insurance couldn't cover it. How were you able to pay the bill?”“I h

Max could not stop tapping on the table anxiously. After the call he received the other day, he was instructed to go to this hotel and was asked to go ahead and order whatever he wanted.While Max was told of the offer over the phone, it sounded too good to be true. He didn't believe that there was anyone ready to give such an offer, but their company was in a fiery situation. He was desperate and if there was any means possible, then he had to try.He had been seated at the hotel counter for a while now and even though he was instructed to go ahead and take whatever he wanted, Max was too anxious to go with the order, for fear that he might not be able to pay just in case the caller didn't show up.But after a while, a man dressed in a black suit with black sunglasses walks up to him and, while acting casual, he whispers to him.“Mr. Steele, come with me right now!” He ordered and started walking out of there, although Max had no idea who he was, but immediately followed him upstairs

Ethan stood in the VIP section of a grand hotel. He could not stop staring at his watch from time to time. He was meeting up with a very important client for a lunch meeting, but he had been there for a while now.“Liam! Are you sure you informed our clients of the details of the meeting?”“Yes Sir, they wanted to push it forward, but insisted on this time. I am also surprised they are not here yet since it was all their decision.”Liam grunted. Ethan felt like he had been belittled. He could not wait any longer as he rose to his feet.But just as he adjusted his tie and mask and was about to walk out of there, the client immediately arrived, accompanied by two of his men.“Mr. Bennett! I know that you must be truly mad at me right now. I am so sorry for the delay. There was an emergency at the office and I had to sort it out before I could leave, else it would have led to some damage in the office.”“That is no excuse. You are a professional. All you should have done was place a call
Chapter One Hundred And Eighteen
Sophia stood still for a while, staring at the old woman's flare-up at her and once it seemed like the old woman was done speaking, she smiled politely at her.“Mother, you need to calm down. I might have had a bad relationship with your daughter in the past and I understand that must be the reason you seemed so angry, but trust me, it's all sorted out.”“Sorted out?” She asked, Mrs. Bennett was finding it difficult to believe the words she was saying, yet she did not stop staring at Sophia with nothing but disgust and contempt.“Yes, in fact, I know you haven't been informed of it, but Mr. Bennett and I are really close. In fact, we might soon become a couple, which is why I wanted to see you and have some motherly advice from you.”Seeing that she had calmed down, Sophia drifted closer to her and tried to wrap her hands around her. But Mrs. Bennett had forgotten all about her sickness or how weak she was. She raised her hand and slammed Sophia pretty hard in the face.Sophia felt h
