CHAPTER THIRTY ONE
Her heart almost out of place and not knowing what the near future held for her, Ludo walked quickly to the gate that she dropped some files in her hand. She bent down and picked them all up. While standing up, she felt a cold rush of air on her neck, she turned around. She felt like someone was watching her. She tried to look around but there was no one around. She walked into the building, her eyes everywhere. Upon entering, she saw Lance and Caesar’s cars in the parking lot. She cussed herself about what happened on Saturday. She entered and found Lauren on the reception busy typing something on a laptop. Ludo passed her without saying anything and went directly to her office. As soon as she put her handbag on the table, Lance was standing on the door with his hands in the pocket.
“Goo … good morning sir,” Ludo stuttered.
“Follow me,” Lance turned around.
Ludo didn’t know what to touch or carry. She just started off

Trying to think of what had happened in the two villages in two consecutive nights bothered and gave Hunter a terrible headache. He had first thought of Ben and Devi and knowing them, he knew everything was about the land. What if they planned on getting rid of Chief Chovu’s whole family including his daughter in the other village? He asked himself. What was the big deal with the land that they were willing to go to the extent of killing everyone in their way? He knew they worked as contractors but who was behind all the scheme? He remembered what Walutanga’s sister said before dying. She mentioned something about children, did she mean her children? That wasn’t his concern at the moment but Walu was and he had to get to him as soon possible. He didn’t know why but there was some sort of urgency in his heart and through his job in the past, he learned to trust his instinct.The truck he had gotten onto had many problems on the way. They had to stop sev

Hunter shoved a table out of his way and grabbed Devi by his coat and pulled him, smashing him against another patient's bed. Some patients were now awake wondering what was happening. Hunter quickly checked on Walu who was having a hard time breathing but he knew he was going to be fine. As he turned around, a punch landed on his cheek knocking out his molar instantly. This small man had the power of Goliath, Hunter thought as he spat the tooth out. Devi grabbed a table and threw it on Hunter who briskly missed it. The two men stood panting heavily looking at each other. Hunter was bleeding.“So my suspicions were right,” Hunter said and went, “But why Devi?”“You know me?” Devi seemed shocked.“Who wouldn’t know the duo Ben and Devi and the mess they leave when handling things?”Devi laughed, “Are we that careless?”“Always have been.”“May i know who you a

Devi drove into his yard and found Ben’s car parked there. His head felt like it could drop off from the neck. He got out of the car and slowly walked to the front door limping. As soon as he entered the house, he directly went to his little bar in his living room and grabbed a quarter bottle of Jameson and gulped it all the way down his oesophagus. He then put the bottle on the counter and wondered where Ben was. He heard footsteps behind him and turned around, there stood Ben with a weary face.“Damn!” Devi gritted his teeth. “Sometimes you act like this is your house.”Ben didn’t say anything but walked past him and grabbed the same bottle he had drank from and gulped as well. If Devi knew, he would have noticed that Ben was in turmoil.“Why would you need that for?” Devi grabbed the bottle from him.As Devi wanted to take another sip, he heard footsteps coming from the other room and knew there was anoth

Ludo was wide awake early in the morning. She never had much sleep during the night. She saw the sun rise when she was about to dose. When leaving for the firm, she went to the room Walutanga had slept and found him conscious, arguing with her mother. When he saw her, he started shouting and screaming quavering Hunter’s name. She introduced herself and made it clear that he was there following Hunter’s request.“Where is he?” he asked.“He will come, don’t worry. He has to take care of some things. There are some people who wants to hurt you.”Walutanga remembered what had happened last night. When Ludo mentioned her name, he remembered Hunter talking about her to him and gradually became calm.She left him with an assurance that her mother would take good care of him till he got better. He was reluctant at first but he had no option. For Hunter to bring him to these people, it means he trusted them and therefore

“I didn’t like the way he looked at me,” Ludo told Hunter.Immediately after leaving her office, she got on a cab to Central Park where she found Hunter waiting for her. She wasn’t sure how she would meet him at first because she didn’t get his phone number. She just went trusting that he would show up and he did.“Perhaps you've both met somewhere before,” Hunter said.“He’s my boss' cousin. There is something about him that i didn’t like. Enough of that, any progress on the search for the two murderers?”“Not really but i have been asking around. No one seems to know where they are found these days.”“I think my new boss can help us. We will just have to wait.”“How?”“Leave that to me.”He stared at her and looked away. “How’s the boy?”“On my way here, i talked to mom. She said he&

Lance woke up to a text from Anderson telling him about the preliminary trial date set by the judge. Lance and his team had three weeks for prep and both attorneys from each side had to trade information they had that was pertinent to proving their client’s cases. After getting done preparing, he called his wife and asked how she was doing with the pregnancy and promised to visit her during the weekend. He also mentioned to her that his cousin Stone was with him for a couple of days. She didn’t like the idea because she had never heard of him and where has he been all this time? Lance attributed her suspicions to the pregnancy but after hanging up the phone, his wife’s intuition was always right, he thought. Where was Stone all this time? Yes, he told Lance that he had been moving up and about but where was he exactly?“So, your sister-in-law sends her greetings over the phone,” he told Stone when they were having breakfast.

Feeling accomplished over the last three weeks, Mapulanga was on top of it all. He never thought he would ever be this close to becoming chief when he exiled himself with Grace. The last few weeks had been a handful for him. Against the wishes of some village members, He went ahead and planned the funerals for his brother and family. There was nothing anyone could have done but just watch and hope for a miracle. He had made himself Chief but it wasn’t official because Walu was apparently missing and nobody knew where he was. Mapulanga had theorized to the elders that the boy was dead because the hospital he had been taken to had no records of him. This raised suspicions but no one dared to ask. They were only waiting for the day when some other elders would come to Chisoti village and crown him as chief.He sat next to his wife he now referred to as Queen with no trace of shame. They were both happy and were really convinced that this was the work of Karma for what happ

Hunter instructed Ludo and Walu to hide under the bed as he caught a glimpse of the outside one more time. He saw nothing again, but the squeaky noise at the door was increasing. He slowly reached for it too and pulled the door. The door was also forcefully pushed from outside it widely opened. Standing before Hunter was a tall giant figure of a man staring directly into his eyes. Hunter didn’t want to take any chances he threw a punch at the man and boom, the man was knocked down to the floor. He pulled him into the room and grabbed his head and struck him with his knee. He then jabbed him in the stomach, now looking at him clearly.“I come in peace,” the man shouted, his hands in the air.Hunter didn’t recognize the man. “Who are you? Identify yourself.”“I am Dumi from Chisoti village!” the man responded with fear in his voice while coughing.“Dumi!” Walutanga yelled from under the bed.
