A minute with him was enough to tell you that Ethan was calm in some ways; or maybe he was just playing cool, just maybe.

“I really want you to know that this might be your last interactive shit with the cops before you join your brother in the cell,” Alicia broke the silence between them, using the back of her palm to wipe off the beads of sweat that had made its way to her head.

“Don't mention my brother's name, you whore,” the man spat, hardening his jaw as their eyes met. “I won't tell you again.”

Alicia finally took her seat, scanning the room for a while without any sign of fear. “You know, I heard your brother's soap fell in the bathroom some days ago, and I've been trying to ask myself, what happened in the end?”

The man tried to stand up but he was weighed down by the table, and out of annoyance he pounded his fist on the table, but still, Alicia remained composed.

“When I get out of this handcuffs, trust me, I'll come for you,” he grunted, gritting his teeth amidst his wo

    “What's for today?” It was Orion's voice, settling into the office along with the ray from the sun just as he raised the blind curtain. As she searched through the pages, Nessa remained silent, tugging her hair behind her ear since it acted as a source of distraction to her, but since she started the search her iris was still for the first time.“The location is Solace press sir,” she announced, mirroring the shocked expression that made its way to Orion's face. Just like she knew, he has prepared for something else; not a meeting with Elysia. “I don't understand,” his face contorted in confusion as their eyes met, and the latter rose to her feet. “What do you mean by Solace press?” That question acted as a stark reminder to the fact that he was surprised, but Nessa brought out the tab in her hand, placing it on the table, barely minutes after she unlocked it. She unbuttoned the first, heaving a sigh of relief as she bent low to zoom the meeting of the week, swiping it from the p

    Elysia drew a long breath, letting it out after a while. “You know, the last time she called me, she ended the call like something's wrong.” Whenever something like that was brought up, Calvin had always tried to hide the obvious look on his face, but at that moment it was not the same. He was trying to hide something different— the shock that was evident on his face. “A-Are you serious about that?” he stammered, the words barely making it past his lips as his fingers tightened around the sleek cuff of his custom-tailored black Louis Vuitton suit. “I’m talking about her tone now.” “I mean…” he shut his eyes for a second, shaking off the negative thoughts that kept making its way to his head. “We’ve always known Alicia to be fragile; so I'm just curious, what if it was her scared part talking?” Unease surged through Elysia, making way to her face, and even where she was seated, she shifted, pinching the bridge of her nose. “It was something other than that,” her forehead creased

    “Heard you paid up the salaries,” the pouring sound of coffee into a cup rhymed with Elysia's voice as her gaze darted between the cup and Calvin, whose hands were clasped underneath his jaw.Calvin let out a soft exhale, shrugging slightly. “Is there something wrong with it?” “If there was, you think I would be this calm?” She replied, narrowing her gaze on him. “Just asking though.” “Given your calmness while handling all situations, I can't say,” Calvin answered, arching an eyebrow. “So if there is anyone who can give me an answer, it's you.”“Clever,” Elysia chuckled, taking her seat as she crossed a leg above the other, passing a cup to Calvin who accepted it with a barely noticeable nod.Something that even Elysia failed to take notice of. “The answer is no,” she let those words out after taking a sip from the cup. “If you had done something wrong I won't be this calm.” Although he said nothing, Calvin's expression was enough to tell that it was also the answer he was expect

    Two months was all Orion needed to gain full entry to the school; he knew well enough that if there was anything he had to grow in order to get close to the children it was patience, and he exercised it. Irrespective of the fact that he was famous, the school had to do some findings on him— criminal record, how trustworthy he could be, and others, but above all, there was one thing they did not check. His financial status.Every breathing thing that knew Orion knew just how rich he was, and not just that, he was also influential.“When next will they be having a meeting?” Orion asked in the car, taking off his sunglasses. “Umm…” the driver paused, flipping some pages before he finally paused, tracing a finger above a line. “Two days from now sir.” Elysia had returned to the city, and ever since then Orion had been cautious, taking note of every time there was a chance she was going to show up at school.“Fair enough,” he inhaled sharply, stepping out of the car just as the driver

    Alicia walked up to where her face towel was. A white towel that had been decorated with the blood of Ethan, giving it a second colour– red.She wiped the sweat off her face, switching her eyes from one wespon to the other, and the clanging sound of the baseball bat filled the room just as she threw it on the floor, breathing heavily. “Superb,” she muttered under her breath and her lips curled into a smile. “The type of endurance I've been looking for.” “We both know you're pained,” the man groaned weakly, trying hard to catch his breath as blood flowed from his forehead, down to his cheek, in the process, some even entered his mouth. “So detective Lehman, don't try to… argghhhhh!” He cried out in pain as he felt that hot blade slicing off a part of his ear. It was the lower part, where his hearing won't be affected. “I thought I talked to you about mentioning the name,” Alicia recalled, squatting beside him. “You don't deserve to say that name; believe me when I say that.” “It

    Calvin pushed his suit up, staring at the Rolex wrist watch, although the reflection of the sun made him squint, and just like he lost interest, he walked into the car, before driving off. “Mr. Hemsworth,” it was Mr. Henderson, approaching him with a smile on his face, and just as he got there, Calvin stretched forth a hand and the latter accepted it without hesitation. “I’m sorry that I was away for long,” he whispered, pulling out his hand before turning to the books in Mr. Henderson's hand. “Thank you for covering up for me.” Mr. Henderson smiled, inhaling deeply. “Well, it didn't come for free.” He muttered under his breath, but the irony there could not be hidden. Not like he tried to do that anyway. “So tell me, how much do I get to pay?” Calvin inquired, leaning in as Mr. Henderson's lips parted open. He shrugged, holding the book in his hands tighter. “That was just another one of my jokes, so it's no big deal.” “Well, I think it's fine to appreciate your efforts,” sinc
