This revelation left Harper in a state of shock, unsure of how to proceed, yet still plagued by doubts and rendered speechless. Sophie then turned to Harper and confessed, "Very well, Harper, I will disclose the truth and nothing but the truth; all I ask is for you to lend me your ear." Harper nodded in acknowledgement. "Indeed, I was previously married to him, but I ended the marriage upon discovering that he was mentally unstable. I had been married to him for two years without realising that he had been deceiving me regarding his occupation," Sophie explained. "What do you mean by he has been lying to you about his job?" Harper inquired. "He claimed to be a worker on a rig, but I later discovered that he was, in fact, a drug dealer. This revelation prompted my decision to seek a divorce; however, he objected to it. I then took the initiative to contact a lawyer to prepare the divorce papers, but he has refused to sign them," Sophie elaborated. "Hmm, please continue; I am list

"Very well, what was her action after he refused to sign the divorce documents?" Ethan queried. "Ultimately, she managed to extricate herself one day, and that was how she left the marriage," Harper explained. "Hmm, did the unusual individual corroborate her account?" Ethan asked. "Yes, he claimed that she was lying and asserted that she had been a prostitute before he fell in love with her and subsequently married her. The entire situation was perplexing, and I felt unsure of whom to trust," Harper stated. "Are you certain he was not lying about her past?" Ethan asked. "As I mentioned earlier, I am uncertain whom to believe between them," Harper admitted. "Understood, what did you do next?" Ethan inquired. "Actually, I insisted that she accompany me, but the unusual individual intervened," Harper replied. "And why did he prevent you, if I may ask?" Ethan queried. "He expressed that if she left, he would never see her again and requested that I allow him to take her

complete payment means no package,” Edward responded. Ethan took a deep breath and inquired, “This situation is becoming rather absurd. I ordered a pair of shoes for fourteen thousand pounds. Kindly clarify the source of this twelve thousand pounds; did the company mistakenly send me someone else’s pair of shoes valued at twenty-six thousand pounds?” Edward slide through his iPad and opened a journal which has the history page of Ethan’s purchase and said, “Actually, sir, it is recorded here that you ordered two items.” “Two items!!!” Ethan exclaimed. “Yes, sir,” Edward confirmed. “Hmmm, that is peculiar, for I only ordered one item, a pair of shoes. What are the two items to which you refer?” Ethan asked. Edward examined the history page closely and replied, “It states here that you ordered a pair of shoes for fourteen thousand pounds and a T-shirt for twelve thousand pounds, totaling twenty-six thousand pounds.” Ethan was bewildered and quickly retorted, “Well, Edward, as you

"There must be some error; I did not commit this act. There has been a misunderstanding," Steven implored. One of the officers delivered a resounding slap to Steven and declared, "You are under arrest, and you have the right to remain silent, as anything you say or do may be used against you in a court of law." Despite his pleas, the officers forcibly escorted Steven out of the house and transported him to the police station. Ethan waited patiently until the police had taken Steven away before emerging from his hiding place. "Oh, I am now relieved; this is merely the beginning of my retribution against Steven. I must leave before anyone notices me here," Ethan mused. In contrast, the police summoned an ambulance, which arrived to transport the corpse. Ethan feigned ignorance of the events and contacted Angela, informing her not to come to his house. Instead, he would visit her residence, as he was already dressed. She agreed, and he departed to her home, and they went to spend ti

but that is quite uncharacteristic of him; something is indeed amiss," Ethan replied. "Whatever the case, do not tell me he misses you already, as I intend to have you all to myself for two days," Angela declared. "Oh, my dear, let it be three days," Ethan exclaimed as he lifted her. "Three days? No problem, the expenses are on me," Angela replied, and they both shared a kiss and laughter. Meanwhile, Officer Smith remarked, "You should not have ended the call until I instructed you to; you were also supposed to ask him when he would be returning." "Oh, my apologies; was I meant to inquire about his return?" Alfie retaliates. Officer Smith shook his head disapprovingly. At that moment, the detective assigned to the case, Detective Vincent, arrived. "Good day, gentlemen. I am Detective Vincent," he introduced himself. "Greetings. I am Officer Smith, and beside me is the murderer and the individual who resides in the apartment where the incident occurred," Officer Smith stated.
