JACKIEReturning from the small clinic where I had gone to visit Saint, I kept replaying the conversation we had in my head.“I want him to rot in jail,” Saint had responded to my question.“Do you think the cops will really be able to get him arrested?” I had asked Saint. “We both know that he is the fiercest mafia in the city,” I reminded him.“I don’t care about that, Jackie,” Saint had said hatefully. “He has been getting away with a lot of things, but he will not get away with this,” he had insisted.“And what if he does?” I had asked deeply.I really wanted to know what Saint’s plans were because the truth was that deep down, I didn’t want any harm to come to Keith.I still loved him like I had always done.Even though I never wanted to be in the middle of the rift between Saint and Keith, I still didn’t want Saint to win. The only reason why I was there was to know what was going on in Saint’s head, so that I could protect Keith from it. Thankfully, I had been able to make Sain

MIAI was worried about Keith and the wrath I had seen in his eyes a few minutes ago.“This is why I don’t like to tell him anything,” I muttered to myself.I paced around my desk worriedly, checking the clock from time to time, but Keith wasn’t back yet. He left some minutes ago. Maybe even an hour, but he wasn’t back yet.“What if he had killed her?” I asked myself worriedly.If Keith could kill his best friend and father…well, biological father, it then meant that he was capable of killing anyone at all that crossed his path, and I would never forgive myself if she died because of me. However, I couldn’t help but imagine why she would have tried to poison me.After waiting impatiently and worriedly for another thirty minutes with different troubling thoughts running through my head, I decided to go to the cafeteria.“Waiting here without any idea about what is going on is just going to drive me insane,” I said to myself.I didn’t have to sit here and wait when I could find out what

KEITHI couldn’t get to the clinic fast enough, but I managed to put a call through to Detective Austin.“Saint Alexander is alive,” I stated the moment the call connected.“What the heck?!” He was shocked.Well, I felt that way too, only that mine was more intense.Saint wasn’t dead, but he was trying to rope me into a murder scandal so that he could make me rot in jail and inherit the Institute.“He must either be high on some cheap drugs or he was suffering from the damage of the deadly beating I gave him,” I muttered under my breath.But then again, he had obviously had this plan way before that incident where I left him for dead. However, that wasn’t all that Jackie had told me.“I just got reliable information that the bastard is still alive, but is trying to make me pay for a murder that never happened,” I informed him.“Who told you this?” He asked me.“Jackie,” I answered even though I didn’t think that was an important question at the moment.“Keith, are you driving?” He que

JACKIEKeith definitely left to go and confront Saint about what I just told him. I had driven out as well, trying to follow him, but I changed my mind and stopped.Then I started to call Saint, trying to warn him.“Maybe I shouldn’t have told him too soon,” I muttered to myself.Again, Saint might try to reveal things about me to Keith if he found out that I had betrayed his trust, and being that I was trying to win Keith’s heart, I couldn’t allow it.“I will simply lie to Saint and tell him that Keith had put a gun to my head and forced the information out of my mouth,” I said to myself. “I don’t know how he is going to manage it, but he will have to either find something convincing to tell Keith or get away from there before Keith gets there, regardless of his condition,” I added.However, I had been trying to call Saint but to no avail.“Shit!” I exclaimed in exasperation when I recalled that Saint was deliberately unreachable.I remembered that the whore warned me not to ever cal

KEITH “What is this about?” I asked detective Austin as soon as I got to the address he sent to me.It was a small isolated restaurant that didn’t have any customers, so as soon as I got there, I picked up my gun. I always had one in my car, but I rarely used it because there hadn’t been the need for me to. I tucked it into my waistband before proceeding into the restaurant, and I saw the detective waiting for me. He was the only one there. I would be damned to trust anyone fully, including a bloody detective.“Please, sit,” he said calmly.“I am not cut out for this,” I said with a snarl.I wanted to get back to the Institute as soon as possible to confront Jackie about her painful lie, and as such, I didn’t have the time for this, especially now that we really didn’t have much in common.“You already have what you want; the new Dealer is dead, and we don’t have need for each other anymore,” I added, still standing.“If you thought so deep inside, Keith, you wouldn’t have come,” he
