The ladies decided to host the dinner on the balcony. It was a safer bet to avoid attracting unnecessary attention. “How did you know he’s Anthony?” Daniel asked as they sat for dinner. “That’s my superpower.” Dana giggled. Tyrell made an ‘o’ shape with his lips while the others joined in the humor. “Every one of his men I have met so far had some sort of a tattoo on their left arm except this one. I made a gamble.” Dana shrugged. The men nodded ‘Pretty good guess work.’ Daniel and team left taking the catch from the afternoon after dinner. The rest of the cruise was uneventful and enjoyable. Days went back on track for the ladies while Ben and the men got busy following leads and launching attacks either covert or open on every source of Anthony Tyson’s financial backers. Irene’s boutique opened shortly after becoming the talk of the town. No one expected the pampered young heiress to be so talented and driven. She was an Adalase after all! The only person who wasn’t having a

“Lara and Sarah are coming. Tyrell’s the culprit.” Ed tapped on his watch. He was not going to let the bastard off lightly. Ben pursed his lips into a lopsided frown as he received the message. He was going to have to come clean with Dana. He updated Dana on the events till they arrived at A&E on the way back from Steve’s room to the car after turning off his earpiece. Dana listened without any change in expression, she knew they were hot on trail so she felt it was only natural. Her expression soon changed into embarrassment. Ben was curiously watching her reaction and raised his eyebrows when he saw her embarrassment. “Did they then hear what we ….” Dana scrunched her lips into a funny shape. Ben chuckled as he pulled her into his embrace; His wife was really cute. “What’s there to be embarrassed about? If anything, they should be embarrassed to eavesdrop on a conversation between husband and wife.” Ben retorted righteously. If Tyrell heard this, he would be blowing steam through

“Hello” Dana’s voice and eyes had an undisguised affection. Ericson stared longingly at her face, ‘How nice would it be if it was for him?’ He stared unreservedly remembering the first time he met her on campus. Her innocent smile as she was introduced to him by the dean. He hated taking classes, he was a surgeon meant to be in the theatre. But for the sake of interacting with her, he agreed to take basic cardiology lessons and become a part-time lecturer. He never had the courage to confess his feelings. He was scared of losing the superficial friendship they had. He was happy to bask in happiness of the warmth of her friendship, silently watching her from the distance thinking he had time to move her heart, but he was wrong. As he stood watching she became another man’s. This was his second chance. Dana had no idea what was going on in Ericson’s head nor did she notice his gaze. She was engrossed in the warmth of Ben’s voice and care. “Wife, I know it will be difficult for you. So

The court resumed 10 mins later. The battle between arguments and counter arguments resumed with full vigor; The prosecutor’s side was weakly holding on when the prosecutor’s receptionist passed a message and an envelope. The prosecutor’s face brightened as he saw the contents. He requested permission to approach the bench on the basis of the contents he just received. Both lawyers approached the bench and after a heated discussion, the judge nodded his approval to present the evidence that was just obtained. The defense lawyer cursed under his breath as he walked back to his seat. He briefly updated his client on the contents. The accused seemed to have lost his composure, losing color on his face as he stared at the prosecutor. While everyone, on the juror’s bench and common public was debating what just happened; Dana smiled. The arguments resumed fiercely although the defense lawyer didn’t have much to refute the credibility of the prosecutor’s arguments. Ben was onboard the air

The package arrived at 10 pm as Granger promised. Ben was waiting at the door to receive the package. “No one is allowed to enter till morning.” Ben ordered Scar who was guarding the door “I have let the boys know. No one I repeat no one till Steve comes for his rounds in the afternoon.” “CEO” Scar bowed in acknowledgement. Ben sat back in his normal position “Wife, I love you. I have never done anything to let you down nor will I ever. You are the reason my heart beats. If my presence is the reason you refuse to wake, then I won’t hesitate. We are not fated in this one either. I will wait in the next. I will strive not to attract bees and butterflies in the next.” Ben chuckled as he caressed Dana’s face with affection. The next hour he sat reminiscing about the best moments in his life. The first time they met. How he despised her appearance and stupid reason he thought she came up with to get close to him. How he subconsciously wanted to kiss her and made up that stupid condition
