LOGINElvira’s POV I tossed and turned when I couldn’t sleep. I closed my eyes but it was obvious I was deceiving myself. I stood up to get my pills when the door opened and it was Calix standing by the door. “I told you it didn’t work that way,” He said as he entered the room and shut the door behind him. “Do you need something?” I questioned politely. Calix shook his head, “I think it works because we are comfortable with each other.” “Huh?” I think I was lost in what he was saying. Without another word, Calix climbed into the bed and pulled me back into it, “Let’s sleep.” We lay straight on the bed with our faces facing the ceiling and only our breaths could be heard in the room.“Maybe it’s because we are comfortable with each other,” Calix said, breaking the silence.“Yeah,” That was the only thing that came to my mind. I badly wanted to ask him about his relationship with Chloe but I had already promised I wouldn’t do it.“This can be our new sleeping arrangement,” Calix said a
Elvira’s POV I paused while watching on the laptop and went to Becky’s laptop. I checked the date and time on the laptop I had with me and told them to fast-forward it to the same time on their own laptop. It was clear as daylight, I watched the footage from outside the penthouse after Leah entered with the food, a man who was wearing a hoodie entered, and a woman also entered but her face was covered.They entered with a key, how did they get the key to the penthouse? I had Karisa in mind but Karisa wasn’t this short. After a few minutes, the man and the woman walked out of the penthouse with Leah was who was unconscious then later on, Calix walked out leaning on the wall for support. “So that means they were all inside the house when everything happened,” I felt a bit of relief even tho I didn’t know what happened inside the house. I dropped the laptop containing the outside footage and went to the laptop with the living room footage. Calix was already unconscious in the living
Elvira’s POV “Huh?” I was still trying to process what was being said. “Mrs Kyrell, don’t you remember?” One of the engineers asked, “You gave us seven to keep for our personal experience and you had asked us to install the remaining three at the penthouse.” “You said people rarely go to the penthouse so it would be easy to test the camera without wondering what you might see,” Another engineer pointed out, refreshing my brain. The secret spy camera. The ones we were testing, how could I have forgotten something as important as that? “I’m sorry,” I apologize, “It completely skipped my mind, you know I have had a lot to deal with in the past few weeks.” “We understand,” One of the employees responded. “I will give you the key to the penthouse so you can pick them up and check if they are in perfect condition,” I said, “Then we can finally create a launch date for the product.” “So next on our agenda, is the appliance the camera will be a perfect fit for,” Another employee said,
Elvira’s POV When I got home, the door to Karisa’s house was open. Without thinking, I entered the house and everyone was in the living room. “Mrs Elvira, what are you…..” I slapped Karisa across the face before she could finish asking me her dumb question.“Mrs Elvira!” Casper yelled as he ran to hold his wife, “Can’t you see she is pregnant?” I almost laughed in their faces. I was pregnant too yet I was pushed downstairs, I was pregnant too yet I was murdered, “A slap won’t kill her or harm her child, it would only reset her brain.” “This may be your house but you do not have the right to slap my wife,” Casper said in defense of Karisa and I couldn’t even care. “What was that for?” Karisa yelled angrily at me with her hand still covering the place I had slapped her. “How dare you ask that question?” I yelled furiously, “Don’t you know what you did?” Karisa took a step away from her husband and stood eye level with me, “No, I do not know so please kindly refresh my memory.” “
Elvira’s POV The courtroom erupted into a place of noise. Keypads clicking, reporters writing this new revelation and my eyes fell on my suspect Karisa. She even seemed surprised but her eyes held curiosity that I couldn’t explain. That’s a new revelation, I lightly pinched Becky to get her attention, “How come I didn’t know about Calix’s allergy?” “You know,” Becky whispered while her eyes were focused on Leah, “When you wanted to make dinner for Mr Calix, I informed you about the use of nuts in the house.” “I thought he didn’t just like it,” I could swear Becky didn’t say much about it that day. “Really? I told your brother about his medical history, I know I told him it was confidential but I’m surprised he didn’t tell you,” She glanced at me then turned her attention back to the court. “That…. That…. That’s a lie,” Leah yelled in tears, “He was eating nuts on that day, I know the smell, I even touched it.” “Your honor, here is the evidence regarding Mr Calix Kyrell's medica
Elvira’s POVThe only thing that has been on my mind since I left Karisa’s room was the hotel footage. I drove straight to the hotel and went to the penthouse. I thought I was pissed, but now I’m even more pissed that they refused to give me the footage. I didn’t speak much; I called Calix, and Becky brought the footage to me.“You were the one who stopped them from bringing it earlier?” I couldn’t help but scoff. Becky nodded her head as she dropped the laptop in front of me, “I don’t think Mr Calix would want you to investigate this.” “Did he tell you that?” I questioned and Becky kept her mouth shut, “Or is there something I don’t know? You both seem pretty relaxed.” “Mr Calix isn’t relaxed, he hasn’t been able to sleep for days, the test results came back and they showed all three of you were drugged, he doesn’t know what to do or where to start from,” Becky said, “His grandfather wants to wash the case away but he doesn’t want to be proven innocent.” I have a strong feeling
Elvira’s POV “What? What did you say?” I asked Becky with surprise. “The lady who takes care of the house cleaning fell down the stairs and was rushed to the hospital,” Becky repeated what she said, “She won’t be able to work for some time.” What the heck? How did this happen? “Who else is aware
Karisa’s POV “Are you crazy?” Chloe raised her voice at me and I ignored her, “Don’t you dare keep quiet when I’m speaking to you.” “What are you yelling?” I questioned as I filed my nails. “How dare you go back to that house and beg for a job!” Chloe yelled at me. I dropped the nail file on th
Elvira’s POV“Mr and Mrs Jordan are here to see you,” Calix said from the door of my room while I was getting ready for the office. I glanced at him from the mirror, “Isn’t it too soon for them to come here? I mean we haven’t even thrown a bait.” Calix nodded his head, “I don’t trust them but you
Karisa’s POV “Babe, you good?” I asked as I entered the room. Casper was lying on the bed deep in thought. “You know we can’t stay at your brother’s place for long especially as he has gotten a job to be a private doctor for the Kyrell family,” Casper sighed and I understood his concern, “Have yo
