JESSICA ANNA YUKA'S POV,

My eyes kept darting towards the door as I waited for Richard. Two hours had gone already since my father left to see him, and with each passing second, I became increasingly anxious.

A great sense of sadness overwhelmed me as I wondered if I had risked my life in vain. I had meticulously carried it out to get him trapped in self guilt, the fact that he hadn't shown up after two good hours made my blood boil with wrath.

As I pondered my thoughts, the rattling on the door snapped me back to the present.

I thought I hadn't heard correctly, so I sat up, my ears perked up in anticipation of another knock.

"Who's it?" I asked, my heart banging at the glimpse of excitement.

"It's me!" Richard's voice dropped into my heart, causing my lips to curl with excitement.

    LEONARD KISH'S POV,As soon as I was done with work that evening, everything within me wanted to return home. Although I couldn't understand the sudden desire, I just knew I wanted to be home."Welcome home, Boss!" Butler Joe cheerfully greeted me as soon as I stepped into the living room. He was standing in his post.I nodded my head in response, but a great sense of hesitation overwhelmed me. The thoughts of meeting Elsa drunk filled me with guilt."Where's Elsa?" I asked after about six seconds of hesitation."She went towards the garden Boss, she had a visitor." He replied, gesturing towards the garden.His words had barely left his lips when I felt a sudden jolt of urgency within.I didn't know what I was thinking, but I turned on my heels, and walked outside. My steps were heavy and purposeful as they carried me through the path that led to the garden.I was both nervous and uncertain. Although I couldn't comprehend why I was feeling that way, I just knew I couldn't afford to l

    ELSA ELKINS' POV,The rattling on the door that evening jolted me back to the present. With a hushed tone, I granted the person entrance. As soon as the door opened, Butler Joe began to speak."Excuse me, ma'am Elsa," he said with an exuberant tone. "You have a visitor downstairs," My brows furrowed as soon as I heard his words and I began to wonder who it was.I knew if the visitor was my mother Butler Joe would have said so. "Who's that?" I asked, confused."I'm not certain ma'am Elsa, but she claims to know you," he responded calmly, which further left me confused.As soon as he left, I walked straight to my dressing room and as I stood right in front of the mirror, I almost couldn't recognize myself. My eyes had lost their lustre, the sight of my reflection brought tears to my eyes even though I tried to fight it off.I quickly got dressed in a long flowery gown and applied a little makeup, since I didn't want anyone to find out how I was suffering in my husband's house.A grea

    JESSICA ANNA YUKA'S POV,"That's enough Richard. It's all in the past now, and long gone. Besides, your bullying has made me the strong lady I am today, so I should be grateful to you for that," I replied , a feigned smile in my face.But Richard didn't say a word to me."And then, it was what you did that night that led me to Leonard. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the chance to meet him at all," I continued, my lips spreading into a broad smile as I stared into space, reminiscing the beautiful memories I had made with Leonard.As I snapped back to the present, I saw him staring at me, which made me chuckle lightly, and as I did I felt choked.He quickly stood up and patted my back. "Are you okay?" He asked, his eyes filled with concern.We locked eyes for a few seconds and my smile broadened, only then did he break his gaze away."I'm fine Richard," I replied, glad that I had made great progress. He quickly stood up and said, "I'll go get you water." Just when he was about to lea

    RICHARD YUKA'S POV.As the distance between my father and I wore thin, the thudding of my heart grew faster.I was overwhelmed with a great sense of shame."Richard!" His voice sounded calmly behind me, only then did I turn to face him, yet I couldn't meet his eyes, I was too guilty to look at the man I had once resented for that same crime.My head hung low in remorse, until my father placed his hands on my shoulders, and gave me a gentle shoulder squeeze, only then did I lift my head and meet his eyes which were filled with compassion for me. Standing right before him I felt like a hypocrite, even though it was clear he wasn't mad at me, I just couldn't stop blaming myself."Come with me," He said kindly, a small smile tugging at the corner of his lips and without waiting for my response, strolled towards the balcony, while I followed suit after a few seconds of hesitation."Don't feel too guilty about what happened, Richard," My father's voice broke the uncomfortable silence tha

He called, snapping me out of my head.On his face was etched a mix of worry and fear as he stared at me with furrowed brows.But I didn't pay attention to the look on his face, I was glad I had seen a savor, someone that had saved me from that inner torment. Without waiting for another second, I rushed towards him and held onto his upper arms."James," i called out, "I'm not a murderer. I didn't kill Jessica," shaking my head as I sought for the slightest cue of belief in him."I know Boss, you're not a murderer," James replied, "Please calm down," but even his words couldn't take the guilt I was feeling deep inside away.I tightened my grip on his hands, desperation getting the better of me.
