Amidst the whole drama, another unfolds when we took heed of a young lady running in.
"Methane, what happened?". Elena went to her.
We curiously got up and followed.
"Ma'am, the.. company..fire..at..the.. warehouse...".
She tries to grab her breath.
I looked on trying to understand, it made no sense.
however, when she got the chance, she explained that the warehouse in which they kept supplies caught fire and also took the lives of two of the workers who couldn't escape.
Elena gets startled by the news.
She almost fell to the ground.
She asked me to accompany her to the burnt warehouse.
I accepted and we left in a hurry.
We got there after a long drive, and the place have been burnt down to the ground.
I tried to go in further, methane takes me back and pulled me away.
"Who are you by the way?" She asked after recalling I was the same person who bumped into her.
Before I  introduce myself, Elena walks into the conversation.
"His name is Salem Baltimore, the new manager in charge of the finances of the company, and thankfully he's here because I need his help".
She explained.
It felt good seeing her sing my praises.
I asked for permission to help with anything I could.
Elena gave me the go-ahead and sends methane to also help me out in doing my job.
She shoots a fake smile and honors her boss's request, such a loyal worker, isn't she?.
The whole day ran by quite quickly, I returned home and the moment I took a step forward, a hand pulled me back and throws a push at me, luckily I had quick reflexes.
I bent down as it flung over my head.
" hello Salem"
David said.
I had two options, it was either I pushed his soul out of his body or walk away as a gentleman should, but in all David had so much to say, I almost considered the first option.
"What the hell is going on here?"
Riya rushed in.
Urgh! Ever since I took my step-in, everyone seems to get on my nerves, mainly Riya, she has a way of bringing the worst out of me.
(Annoying).
An hour later, I read through the financial statement of the company, it seems like a certain amount of money was missing because the numbers don't add up at all.
"May I come in".
I lifted my gaze and saw Elena standing at the entrance of my room, " yes ma'am" I said as she walked closer.
"Thank you so much for helping out, I know I am asking much but please this company means a lot to me, it was my late father's, but after my husband tried to steal from me, he left the company in disarray".
She lets out.
Wow.
There she goes again, blaming others for her crime, I should wicked witches can never change, a witch will always be one, and my mom is the queen of the witch's Kingdom if there is any.
I had no choice but to play in her game, someday, it will be my turn.
"It's okay ma'am, I understand, Riya told me everything, how have you been doing ma'am".
I replied.
Self-pity was the main aim of getting my fake sympathy.
(witch).
She poured out her heart to me, but that wasn't my main concern, I needed to find out something important from her.
So I said," erm, ma'am is there any chance that a certain amount of money might be missing from the company?".
She ran deep in thought trying to gather up the whole truth, "no son, I don't think so because ever since our account resigned from his post, Stan my sister's husband has been the one handling it.
She says.
Is it possible that stan might be responsible for the missing money and besides if I have gotten the chance to get to know him, he might as well have been called my uncle?
"Okay, ma'am, I'll go talk with him tonight". I said as we both left room.
We barged into stan's room and he gets surprised and in a hurry to leave.
"Oh good morning Elena, what brings you to my room?". He asked falling his eyes to me.
Elene gave me the go-ahead and I told on the reason behind our sudden visit.
He frowns for a while before talking.
Stan said, he had no idea there have been a theft at the company.
And that he wasn't the only one responsible,  his wife's sister also had a share in controlling the company's finance.
Stan shifted the suspicion to her,  and I knew if we go on to ask, she might direct us to the next person.
Something is up.
Afterward, we left his room, Stan poked his head outside and caught us ambling in opposite direction.
How am I going to find out that truth? It felt like everyone around here wore masks on their faces, I had to think of something unless I might end up running in circle. 
Well, luck comes off to be on my side, when I noticed a camera planted in my room, I pulled out a chair and climbed on to confirm my suspicion.
I never knew there was a camera home or maybe Elena planted it there, to check on me, she never seems to surprise me.
Or has this been here for long?.
Quickly I rushed out of my room in search,
I went to the storage room and viola, it was there, the CCTV footage was there.
Out of being careful, I pushed the door closed, sat down on a stool, and carefully watched through the footage.
Footage playing-----
Stan paced like he killed a person in the room, I looked at the other footage and caught Riya misbehaving in her room.
I saw her dancing to k.pop music, gosh, she was such a terrible dancer no wonder she locks herself in the room.
An hour passed nothing seems to gain my attention but everything changed when methane went into stan's room.
"Hello, uncle Stan, why did you send for me?" She says closing the door.
Something felt fishy,  I enlarged the image so I could hear their conversation.
"Methane, I am in deep trouble, Elena found out about the missing money from the company, all thanks to the new worker she employed".
Stan clarified.
Methane was in no way pleased by my coming, she let out in a creepy behavior.
"It's okay uncle, I can handle him, what's his name again, oh yeah! Salam Biltmore, and trust me, he won't be able to find out anything, okay?".
She assured him.
If only she knew who's she trying to mess with.
The minute she walked out of the room, I went to the door and it has been jammed shut.
What the hell?.
I tried all I could to break the door but I ran out of energy, hence I was left doing the only thing I never knew I would.
"Hello, anyone there, please help me".
I screamed.
In my quest of finding out the truth, I got myself in deep shit, and to add up to my problems.
I am claustrophobic.
My breathing increased as I banged on the door non-stop to the point I fell unconscious.
Luckily, someone heard me and rushed in.
I looked and saw Riya trying to call for help.
Thereafter, I woke up and gasped for air.
"Salem? Son are you okay?".
Elena sits beside me, Riya stood behind her mom stealing glances.
"I am fine ma'am! I just had a panic attack!" I said letting out a deep breath.
Elena pins a weak smile and laughs, attaining a confused look on my face.
She says " I am sorry for laughing but you reminded me of someone". And by that, she meant my father, her husband, Liam Khan.
A weak smile smudge on, being aware of who she reminisced about.
"Riya, kindly go to the kitchen and get Salem a glass of warm milk".
Elena says.
She walks away listening to her mom's, one by one everyone in the room left.
Riya walks into my room thereafter and placed the warm glass of milk on the table.
"Make sure you drink it, she says to me".
"Thank you, Riya". I replied.
9:00 am)
I couldn't get myself to sleep, no matter how hard I try, but a good stroll will help me a lot.
The house was as quiet as a graveyard, the fountain water seized working, I went closer trying to figure out the problem when a shadow ran past me.
Immediately I turned and saw Elena talking to a man wearing a jacket.
I hid behind a truck and listened.
"Don't give me that okay, and find a Sara, I don't want her anywhere close to me".
Elena shouted.
The strange man kept on insisting that she finds someone else to do her job, if the issue gets heard by the police, all hell will surely break loose.
The man walks away.
Do I need to know if it is the same Sara, is she, my nanny? Or someone else that bears the same name as her?".
The pending question I asked got cleared up when Elena swore, that no matter what happens, Sara Scott will never be free from her sufferings, and will get killed again, the same way she murdered her son and husband.
I was angered by her words, I closed my fist, and walked away.
But before, Elena gets a hold of Sara, I'll have to get to her first.
