I put my phone back into my pocket and walked into the house. I picked some cash in my room and proceeded out of the house to purchase some clothes. I really needed clothes because most of my clothes are in Crystal's mansion.
I went to a clothes shop not too far away from my house to purchase some clothes and take them back home.
I sat on the bed and started thinking about Crystal. While is she so hard to talk too for God sake, following Juliet advice is the best because going to Crystal's house is like a suicide mission. The best thing for me to do is to keep on trying her number till she picks it up.
Crystal POV
Next week Monday
I walked out with my parents and my friends excluding Caleb. I have a feeling that a part of me is incomplete without Caleb.
The limo door was opened as we all hopped in and the driver drove us to the court.
Court
A lot of offenses were charged against Mr Edward including maltreating, killing when dealing business, to the extent that the defending lawyer could not defend the case well. If the evidence is audio, they may still deny the voice, but it is showing him, and even the drugs he kept in his room.
"Mr Edward is thereby found guilty of this offense and he is hereby sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labor... Court! Rise" the Judge said.
Mr Edward POV
I was led out of the bar to an armored police truck by some armed police men. And then I was taken to the prison.
When I got to a section in the prison, I was given prison clothes to change into and then they led me to my own ward leaving me to my fate. I walked into my ward to find some people in there.
"Hey, come here" An angry looking old prisoner said while I obeyed, "pa ah" a slap hit me, while I held my cheek in fear.
"Sit down here" he said while I obeyed.
I started thinking about Crystal and her mother that sent me to this Prison. If only she could forgive me, I would have peace of mind.
Crystal POV
Immediately I got into the house after the judgment, I went into my room to think about the mission accomplished. I really felt at peace, and also I feel like telling Caleb about it. But me and him are not on good terms. And I also pray that after sending Mr Edward to prison, my sleepless nights will stop and I will live happily ever after. but can I live happily ever without Caleb my subconscious said and I concurred to it. If Caleb calls anytime from now I may pick it. I called the maids from my room through the land line and ordered some food.
Later in the night, I told my personal maid to make me a warm bath. Some minutes later after the maid left my room, I stripped off my outfit, wrapped a black towel around my waist and went into the bathroom. I walked into the jacuzzi, sat down on it and rested my back. And the warmness of the water engulfed me.

The next day, I woke up in the morning, removed my boxers, wrapped a towel around my body, went out of the house to brush my teeth and take my bath in our bathroom.
I walked back into the house, cleaned my body dry, applied the cream I purchased yesterday, combed my hair, wore my boxer and clad myself in blue jeans and a yellow top. I walked out of the room to our mini dinning table to eat. After eating, the beans and bread finish. I carried all the plates to the kitchen to wash. After washing finished, I went into my mummy shop to sell the market, because she went to market to buy goods.
I dialed Crystal's number hopelessly and luckily enough she picked:
"Hello Cril, please let me explain" I said begging.
"What did you want to explain, that you are not dating Bella?" She said sarcastically as she laughed in the background
"Yes I am not dating her okay, can we meet" I asked.
"Hmmrmrm.. Okay no problem, meet me at Sweet restaurant close to my house. Did you know my house?" She replied and asked at the same time.
"Yes," I replied.
"Okay... I am expecting you by 12 P.M on the dot" she said.
"Shit!" I said in a low voice remembering I am staying in the shop for my Mum.
"Huh! What did you just say?" she asked.
"I am currently staying in the shop for my mum" I replied expecting a good response.
"Okay.. what time will you be available?" she asked.
"I will be there by 4 P.M" I said why she cut the call immediately without giving a response.
I kept on staying in the shop till 3:30. After my Mum came back, I dashed into my room changing into a cream outfit, wore a black palm slippers and took my purse. I went into the shop to inform my mum that I am going out and she asked me where to. And I replied her.
Immediately I got there, I sighted Crystal coming down from her sport car and she walked magnificently to where I was. And together we went into the First class restaurant.
"Good evening sir and ma" The waitress greeted us by handing us two paper slips containing the food list.
"You can go" I said, dropping the paper slip on the well designed table, trying to get straight to the reason why I am here.
"What! Let's eat first" Crystal protested.
"Let me go to the reason that brought me here, then any other thing can come after, if all is well" I said.
"Okay, waitress, you can go and come back in ten minutes.... Tell me about Bella and why an unknown person claimed that you love Bella and you are just using me?" She said and I was surprised about the person that lied this much to Crystal.
"Okay, this is when it all started. Bella confessed her love to me before you acknowledged that you love me. That day I told her I already have someone I love, but she made a statement when I told her to get rid of the love she has for me. She said that if she doesn't have me, no one else will have me. So I think that is why she is trying to get me by force. And one of her plans is turning you against me. I didn't know what her plan was before I went to the party. She summoned me to her room on something very important without knowing she is about to destroy our relationship.
Immediately I got into her room, she stripped before me, but I was not moved by her body. Then she forcefully kissed me and that Immediate seconds you appeared" I explained. After one minute of silence, Crystal stood up and hugged me immediately.
"I am sorry for not trusting you," she said, apologizing.
"It's okay, but promise me that you will always trust me during any circumstances" I said.
"I promise and give you my words, to always trust you" she said, withdrawing from the hug.
