Lisa ask out of the blueI find myself continuously blinking "Huh?"."How old are you?"."I'll be 26 soon""Yea you're way too young to be my mum".

LUTHER'S POVWe really are in the tigers' den. We suddenly hear a knock on the door"Get rid of this stuff ASAP!". I exclaimed, Andrew carries the board and keeps it in the little store room in the office.He comes back out and opens the door, to our surprise it was "Lexi? I wasn't expecting you today".I noticed she was a little shaky "Mr Benjamin-kim". She said with an odd voice" Everything okay with you?". I ask concerned. She nods but her shivering says otherwise "Andrew assist her to the couch". Andrew wraps his hands around her and carefully leads her to the couch, I take a seat next to her " Leave us". I said to Andrew who bows a little before leaving us "Are you okay?". She raises her eyes and I see her teary red eyes. She suddenly grabs my hands."You have to help me". My eyes widen" What's going on exactly?". I ask curiouslyI notice her clench her fist, her lips shiver as she tries to speak "I feel someone's messing with me"."What do you mean?".She

LUTHER'S POV *FLASHBACK*"Big mouth? I don't understand, what lie?". She asked curiously "What I'm about to tell you Violet can't know about it, I will be the one to tell her myself". She raises an eye brow "Okay? ". She said with a confuse tone and facial expression I let out a sigh "You are going to tell the board that you know where Mr Chad hid is treasure". Her eyes widen "What treasure? What are you talking about?". She ask to whisper "You just have to trust me, if anyone asks just simply tell them Violet told you, and if they ask what it is, just beat around the bush". "And this is going get them off my back?". I nod "it's not like I have evidence that my uncle was the one who sent the threat, going to the police wouldn't do me any good, so I'll just do what you told me, but, what is the treasure? if I may ask and why would telling them that conserve me?"." Truth is, I don't know either, but they're a lot of people obsessed with it

JESSE'S POV I come out of the shower, with my towel wrapped around my waist, I see Benita in her lacy black nightwear, seductively laying on the bed. "I'm not in the mood". I said to her rather blunt, she adjusts herself and sits properly on the bed, she wears an ugly frown on her face. " I might as well just get myself a lover at this point". I scoff "Do whatever you want". I open my wardrobe and bring out my pyjamas " I have news". She gets up and walks close to me she gently puts her hand on my shoulders and caresses them "What news?". Her hot breath on my neck makes my skin tingle " I'm pregnant". Her words echo in my ears, I suddenly feel shaky. "You're what?". I turn to her and I see her amused expression " I'm pregnant!". She said with a bright smile "How did this-huh?". The smile on her face slowly disappears "Is there a problem?". " No-its just, the news, it came as a surprise, I'm happy". I force a smile "I'm really happy". "Well good, I can't wait to tell ev

LUTHER'S POV "Okay dad, I'm off to school!". Lisa yells from downstairs "Have fun honey!". I yell back, she follows Alvin who was to drop her off. I was finally able to knot my tie, I stare at the mirror admiring my reflection "I look good". I put a smile on my face " Are you ready?"Violet asks walking in on me "Yes, I am". I gasped looking at her outfit "You look great". She smiles at me "Thank you, you look good as well". I give her a look "What do you mean? You can't see me". She giggles " I can tell, you smell nice". "That I will agree with you, come on let's go". I take her hand and we both go downstairs together. We see Amanda and Leo in the living room they both stand up to greet us " Good morning".Amanda said with a bright smile "Good morning Amanda". Violet replies " Are we ready to go Leo?".

LUTHER'S POV We had a very busy day at the office, Violet helped me with a lot of paperwork I couldn't do myself when she was healing from her twisted ankle, I kind of felt embarrassed because I feel like no help at all. We were finally done and ready to go home, I walk Violet to the car "You go ahead I'll be home late today". Violet wears a concerned expression on her face "Is everything okay?". "Of course, I just need to take care of something personal that's all". "Are you sure you aren't hiding anything from me, Luther?". I could see how worried she was just by the look in her eyes, but what can I do? I'm not doing this because I want to, is because I have to, to keep her safe. "it's nothing to worried about okay?, you just go home first, I'll be there soon". She enters the car, and Leo gives me a bad eye I force a smile when I face him "Drive safe". He ignores me and just drives away. I let out a sigh. Andrew runs to me"Sir, are you ready?". I nod "Get the car". He turns

LUTHER'S POV"What happened that night?". I ask her constantly glaring "I can't remember, it's been two years". She said without a stutter"We both know you aren't old enough to have a memory problem". I tap Andrew giving him a go-ahead nod, he opens the tablet and shows us her file, I take the tablet from him"Bella Johnson, age 35" she starts to shiver "You immediately turned in your resignation letter right after the trial, why is that?".She gulps "That's because there wasn't any reason for me to continue working there".I scoff. "Yea right, you also changed phone numbers and moved to this dumb, and you expect me to believe that? Was it an act out of guilt?".Her eyes become teary "I didn't do anything wrong, Mr Chad died that night I saw Violet kill him".I nod "Okay fine, let's assume you are telling us the truth, how come you were still on duty that day?"." Because it's my job?"."Every other employee received a random text that night, that told them to

"Of course, but uhm-". " Hello!" I hear an annoyingly familiar voice exclaim"Benita?".I ask surprised" Yes yes, it's me". She responds with an unusual excited tone "Anyway, I came here to invite you and your husband for dinner at my place, I have something exciting to tell you both".I fake a smile " Of course, we'll love to come, time?". She doesn't say anything, I guess she's surprised how I immediately agreed to it.I suddenly hear her chuckle "Good then, 7 pm don't be late, I better get going, have to get some groceries". I hear her walk away.Leo immediately speaks up "Are you sure about this?".I smile at him "Of course, it's just
