Michelle's POVHer eyes pleaded with me to run but it was too late. Something heavy came down on my head from behind. My knees buckled and my legs gave way. Several feet rushed in front of me. I was pulled up by my hair.I couldn't see their faces as they had masks on and I was losing blood from the hit on head.“Where are the files?!” I refused to speak.A punch went to my belly, causing me to cry out in pain.“Answer the question!” He threatened me, “Where are the files?!”When I did not answer the second time, one of the men pulled out a gun and pointed it at me.“Speak!” I did not. I'd rather die than give that evidence away- it is my only hope at getting George to pay for his crimes.“Proving stubborn, huh?” the man holding my hair smirked and then tossed me to the ground.A series of kicks followed- to my ribs, back, hand, everywhere around me, I couldn't tell where to guide.I was half unconscious when they stopped and my vision became blurry. My hair was pulled again.“Do
Vivian said, “The file was traced to Michelle Crofwell's phone.”George frowned as he leaned in, “Michelle Crofwell?”Vivian nodded in confirmation, “I was just as surprised but it was confirmed again.”George leaned back, a devilish smile playing on the corners of his lips. He seemed to note that the two sisters have something in common- sneaking under his nose.“How does Michelle have my criminal records far beyond her birth date?” He asked no one in particular.“It must be Mr Crofwell's failure in hiding the deeds and she must have stumbled on them.”George shook his head, “Crofwell wasn't supposed to keep records of these things. I was unaware he was keeping track of our crimes together, how foolish could he be?? Did he really do that to bring me down one day??”Vivian shrugged, “I suppose.”George curved his fist angrily, “Glad I ended the bastard early.”“What can we do about Michelle?” Vivian asked, “I never thought she would be this smart. She has really beaten us to our game.
Michelle's POVHe said, “You're coming with.”I looked at him, my heart beating fast against my chest. His dark eyes pierced through my blue ones and I couldn't tell what he was thinking at the moment but we both enjoyed the silence and each other's eyes.We wouldn't have disconnected if Scott did not walk in on us.I gasped and immediately broke Myron's grip however, Myron remained calm. Scott's gaze darted from me to Myron and this was the second time he was walking in on us.“Did I interrupt something?” I shook my head and stepped away from Myron, “No, Scott. We were just discussing on moving Annabel to the house.”“Why?”“Someone tried to kill her.” Myron answered.Scott's face darkened and then he said, “Let's move her immediately.”Myron nodded. The Doctors arrived not long after. I reported the incident with Dr. Gabriel to them and they promised to look into it.Transporting Annabel to the house was a tough one. The machines had to be moved as well and the doctor given to us w
Michelle's POVNew York City was on fire.Not because of Annabel this time. Mr Davis' supporters were shocked by his heinous crimes and at least half of New York wanted him thoroughly investigated.To avoid protest from concerned citizens of New York, Mr Davis was not granted bail this time. He was locked up while investigations continued.Rumours claim that he had no money to hire a reputable lawyer. I couldn't help but feel proud of myself.It isn't over yet but at least, this is beyond damage.I sat by Annabel's bed, watching the news and smiling so hard at the fury written all over Mr Davis' face. Vivian tried to calm the reporters and nearby mob but got hit on the head by an egg from nowhere.Myron and Scott left this morning. Scott felt that he should visit his father and Myron wouldn't say where he was headed.Speaking of him, my mind diverted from the TV. He had asked if I could accompany him to the house as Miss Donna was unwell and caring for three kids are not really his th
“His death will be so excruciating he will wish he never crossed George Davis!” George fumed as the atmosphere became tensed.Vivian was also frustrated. It showed on her stressed figure so much that a few of her front hair pulled out. She had thought deeply on who the enemy could be however she just couldn't fathom it.Before George arrived, she had even gone as far as tabling their adversaries down in order to do a structural analysis. In the end, none of them fit into her category.“This feels off, George.” She finally gained the courage to speak her mind, however she did so from a considerable distance.The television gave a low background noise.He shot a look at her, “What do you mean?”“What if this is just Annabel after all? What if she's playing games with us. I did analysis of all our adversaries- all of them have been defeated by us, some in jail, others out of the country except Annabel.”“Have you lost your mind?” George sneered, “Annabel is on that hospital bed fighting
Michelle's POVIt was the second day since Annabel's accident and she is yet to gain consciousness. However, the Doctor assured us that she is steadily making progress.It made me relieved after gluing to her side for days, hoping that she pulls through.Myron came to see Annabel but avoided my gaze and acted like my existence did not matter to him.It hurt me but I had to mask my pain because in truth, Annabel would not have gone through this if I had revealed the agenda. Some minutes later, both Myron and Scott walked in. My body became tense. For a second, I stole a quick glance at Myron only to catch him glancing at me as well.The gaze broke before it was even formed.“Mich, go home if you need to.” Scott mumbled, “Don't punish yourself unnecessarily by rooting yourself to this spot.”“It won't change what you did.” “I’m not staying here to change what I did,” I replied, “I'm here because she's my sister.”“You should have thought that before watching them try to kill her.” Myr
