Nichole's PovI opened my eyes slowly to the white ceiling above me that looked strange and blurry. The light from the small lamp on the wall was too bright, making my eyes burn. I tried to move my left leg under the heavy blanket, but a hot pain gripped my knee and hip, pinning me flat against the mattress again. I grimaced in pain,my shoulders jerking back against the flat pillow as my head was beating hard, so hot and heavy, like someone was hitting it with a big stone and every small breath I took made my chest hurt."Where am I?" I asked softly as my throat felt dry like sand in the hot sun, and my tongue was heavy inside my mouth."You are in the hospital," a voice said beside me as I turned my head slowly, wincing as the muscles in my neck pulled. Xavier was sitting on a low plastic chair right beside my bed. He held my right hand tightly in his own palms as I noticed his eyes were red and swollen, like he had been crying for hours. His clothes were rumpled and unbuttoned at

NICHOLE’S POVI stood near the bed with the paper in my hand and stared at the quiet wooden door. My knees were shaking, but my brain was working very fast because I needed to make a choice before anyone caught me. I quickly hid the folded note deep inside my dress pocket, trying to calm my breathing so my face would not betray my thoughts.Then the door opened slowly and Xavier walked inside, holding a small paper cup filled with warm water. "You need to drink your medicine now," Xavier said softly, reaching out his hand to give me the cup.I took a step back, pulling the note from my pocket and tossing it straight onto the white blanket where he could see it clearly. "Explain this to me right now," I said in a cold voice, watching his face closely to see if his eyes would twitch.Then Xavier placed the paper cup down on the table, and picked up the note with two fingers to read the black ink. "This is not my writing," Xavier said quickly, his eyes widening as he looked up at me wit

RAYMOND’S POVThe bank manager called me on the phone early this morning to tell me that they were closing all my business accounts. I held the steering wheel of my car with cold hands, knowing that if I did not get fresh money today, I would go to prison before the sun set. I drove straight to Madam Hemilighton’s big office building, hoping to convince her to join her company with mine so I could use her name to borrow more cash.I walked into her room upstairs and sat opposite her at the table, trying to make my face look calm."My business is having a small problem, and the banks are bothering me," I said, leaning forward to look into her eyes. "If we join our two companies together today, we can become stronger and stop all our enemies."Madam Hemilighton looked at me with tired eyes, holding her gold pen. "I do not have much power left in me," Madam Hemilighton said, sighing as she rubbed her head. "Joining our businesses will cost me a lot of money.""It is the best way for us,

NICHOLE’S POVThe television screen on the wall showed Mira’s face, and my hands trembled as I listened to her tell a complete lie to the whole world. She was sitting inside a bright news room, wearing a plain white dress and wiping small tears from her eyes like an innocent child. I stood in front of the screen with a cold feeling in my body because I knew that if I did not act right now, people would believe her clever stories and let her walk free again."Beatrice tricked me and used my good name to do bad things," Mira said on the television screen, holding a small tissue paper in her hand. "I did not know anything about the attack on Nichole at the old warehouse, and I am very sorry for all the pain she suffered."As anger boiled through my heart, I pressed the red button on my remote control to turn off the television set, and the room became very quiet. My heart was beating fast inside my chest as I walked over to my wooden desk. I pulled out my laptop computer and set it on

NICHOLE’S POVThe man standing in my kitchen had a long knife raised in the air, but before he could strike, three police officers rushed through the back door and pinned him down to the floor.My body trembled as I dropped to my knees beside Xavier, checking his bleeding arm while the officers dragged the strange attacker away into their vehicle outside."I am fine," Xavier whispered, holding my hand tightly while I helped him wrap a clean cloth around his cut arm.I looked into his eyes and made up my mind right there that I would follow this case to the very end so that everyone who tried to hurt us would end up in jail.The next morning, we walked into the central police station because the station commander had called us to sign the final papers for the criminal cases.The commander looked at me across his wooden table, his face serious as he held up a fresh stack of legal papers."Raymond’s company has officially gone bankrupt today, and every single asset he owns has been seize
