Three days later, Pamela discovered Jack’s plan to use Patra against their mother and Kelvin. She could not stay silent.

She got into her car and drove straight to Jack’s office.

“You went to see Patra?” she asked.

“What about it?” Jack said without looking up from his desk.

“You offered her money. You tried to get her to move in with Kelvin. To ruin things for Mother,” Pamela said.

“I offered her help,” Jack replied. “She is alone. She has a five-year-old son. She is about to have another baby

    Kelvin walked out of the hospital.They doctors had told him to rest. A police officer had given him a card. The officer said to call if he remembered anything about the attack.But Kelvin remembered everything. He remembered Jack’s face, close to his. “Leave my mother. Or next time, I will not just hurt you. I will kill you. And if you tell her about this, I will make sure she gets hurt too.”Kelvin was very afraid. Jack’s warning was real. He had to leave Clarita. It was the only way to make Jack stop. He went home. He took a small bag. He put in some clothes, his passport, and a little money. He did not take much. He did not feel he had the right.He wrote a note. The words were simple. They had to be.~Clarita,~I am leaving. It is not safe. Do not look for me. Please, for your safety, let me go.~Kelvin.He put the note on the table. He placed her favorite coffee mug on top so it would not fly away. He looked around the room one last time. He picked up his bag. He left.He had

    Jack would make Kelvin disappear.He needed a different plan.He stood up, walked to the closet, and took out a black duffel bag. He packed a heavy flashlight, a roll of thick duct tape, a pair of leather gloves, and a small, sharp knife. He added a change of dark clothes and a ski mask.He got into his car and drove to the industrial side of the city, where he bought a small can of gasoline and a new, heavy hammer.He drove to Kelvin’s house, parking far away on a side street. He waited for Kelvin to return from the new mining site he was managing. Kelvin would come home alone after midnight.The hours passed. In the car, Jack put on the dark clothes, the gloves, and the ski mask. He gripped the heavy hammer.Just after one in the morning, Kelvin’s car pulled in. He walked toward the building’s side entrance, where the streetlight was broken.Jack moved. Silent. He came up behind Kelvin just as Kelvin reached for the door.Jack swung the hammer. He did not aim for the head, but for t

    Clarita went home, her heart heavy. She stared at a family photo on the shelf. Jack was just a boy in that picture, but that boy was gone now. He had become a man consumed by hate, a man who would not listen, would not reason. Clarita had begged him, pleaded with him. And now, there was nothing left to do but punish him.She opened her laptop. She began to make moves.First, she emailed the board of the company. She wrote that Jack was removed from all management duties. He was no longer a director. His voting shares were suspended. She attached the legal forms. She copied the company lawyer.Next, she called the bank. She instructed them to remove Jack’s name from all joint accounts. She removed his signatory authority. She moved his personal funds into a new, separate account. He could access only that one. The family wealth was now locked away from him.She then wrote to all their business partners. She stated that Jack no longer represented the family or the company. Any project h

    Clarita attended a high-profile business dinner with Kelvin. She wore a long, simple black dress, and Kelvin wore a formal suit. The couple looked absolutely wonderful.Clarita felt proud. She felt happy to be here with him. She saw the way people looked at Kelvin. They saw a successful young businessman. They respected him. She held his arm a little tighter.Then she saw Jack.He stood across the room near the entrance. He was alone. He wore a suit, but he did not look like he wanted to be there. His expression was hard.Clarita’s happy feeling faded. She hadn’t known Jack was coming. He must have gotten a ticket through his business contacts. It didn’t matter anyway.Kelvin felt her tense.“It’s okay,” he whispered. “Just ignore him. This is your night. Our night.”They began to move through the crowd, greeting people Clarita knew. Kelvin was polite and charming. He talked easily about his work. Many people seemed impressed.Jack did not approach them. He stood by the wall. He watch

She sounded worried.“I need to talk to you,” Pamela said. “It’s about my brother, Jack. And about the offer he made you.”Patra stared at her, then stepped back and let her in.The apartment was very clean today. Mike was playing with blocks on a thin rug. He looked up at Pamela with curious eyes, then went back to his toys.Patra didn’t sit. She stood with her arms crossed over her stomach. “So? Talk.”“My brother came to see you,” Pamela began. “H
