How could you do that, how could you hurt my child!"Stephanie yelled at him "I didn't do it my love, I swear to you that I didn't do it!"He said as he tried to touch Stephanie again but she pulled away from him.She moved back feeling a bit dizzy and quickly Nick went to her,holding her so she wouldn't fall."My love are you okay!"Bruce said as he moved towards her but she shrank away from him."Please Nick, get me away from here!"She said and quickly Nick helped her into his car while Bruce stood by the door calling her."Right now, I don't have any evidence against you but be rest assured, I will get one and surely make you pay, you and every one else involved in the gambling den "Nick said and went into his car driving off too."Are you okay Mrs"He asked as he drove watching Celine mom

"What you are saying right now is that Thomas was the one who sent you and that you think he is up to some thing with George?"Nick asked Bruce who nodded his head in return"I find that hard to believe, you are just trying to rid your self off the issue"Peter said "I swear on life it self, you need to believe me Nick, am not amongst the gambling den members and I will never want Celine dead !"Bruce said as he moved towards Nick."You don't have to listen to this Nick, he is.....""Let's give him a benefit of doubt, I will meet Thomas my self and once i get to talk to him, I will know which one of them is lying"Nick said."You go and talk to him and you will see that am not lying, I will help you in any way to get those bastards who are working at the gambling den"Bruce said as Nick began to walk off "That is if you aren't one of them"Nick said and walked off.Nick got to the Clifford office and got out of his car.He stood starring at the building, starring at the upper floor.Thoma

"You are taking long in answering me Alicia, should i just take that as a yes"Nick asked jolting Alicia back to the present moment "Of course not? I don't like you the way you are insinuating, I like you or better yet, I love you like my brother, if I were asked to choose between you and Thomas then I would pick you, you have been the best brother any girl could ever have,so stop misinterpreting my love for you"Alicia lied with a smile even fixed on her face."Am sorry I doubted you, I just wanted to confirm what Celine told me and now that have gotten an answer I certainly can't doubt you right?"He said "Of course you can't and besides you told me you had some thing to ask me"She said "Yes! It's about Thomas""What about Thomas?"Alicia asked "There is some thing I want to find out? Do you notice that he has been coming home late recently?
