💗CHAPTER EIGHTEEN ❤️
💚MEGAN🤍
I sat at the veranda in my house. A lot have been happening in school lately. We've lost Janice already. I have no idea who is behind all these happening at school.
"Megan"My mum's voice jerk me out of my thoughts.
"Yes mum"I said
"Have you been into any problem at school lately?"She asked.
"No mum. Why did you ask?"
"Some police officer are here for you"She said.
"Police officers? Mum I really didn't do anything wrong. I won't lie to you"I defended
"Meg, you should see them. Janice is your best friend. You should help the police in anyway you can"She said.
"Okay mum."I kinda regretted been Janice's best friend. I should have seen this coming but didn't.
I walked to the sitting room. The police stood beside the door. I slowly walked up to them.
"Good day sir"I greeted.
"Good day. How are you today?"The first and calm looking police officer asked.
"I am fine. Thanks for asking"I said.
"Will you like to follow us to the station for some questioning?"The second and mean looking police officer asked.
My lips couldn't move for some minutes. Do they think I am the k!!!er?. What will I do now?.
"Okay, we don't mind doing the questioning here"The first officer said. I guess he sensed how my heart skipped.
I let out a little sigh and offered them a seat. My mum stood at the other end of the room.
"How close are you to the deceased?"The second officer asked
"Em...."My heart skipped again. I don't know if am the prime suspect here.
"Am I the prime suspect?"I asked.
"Miss, every one is a suspect right now. Until we find the criminal, you are a suspect."The mean looking man said.
"Ok, we are best friends."
"So did you notice any strange things around her?"the second one asked
"No"I said.
TBH, I had always noticed something strange around Janice since Havel arrived to our school. She was always looking for a way to expose Havel. So she got so close to the principal. I had never suspected anything wrong in that so I can't just tell them anything.
"The few weeks or months before her death, have she suspiciously gotten close to someone?"
I don't know if I should say anything.
"I heard about your principal, she seems suspicious too"The first one asked.
"Huh?, My principal is a nice woman"I lied. My hands and feet were shaking vigorously. I can't bear the questioning anymore.
The first officer placed his hands on my palm. "You can talk to us. Everything you say here won't leave this wall"
"Ok"I got calm a little, "yes, my principal and Janice became close some month ago. And I guess my principal might have a hand in it."
"You are a brave girl. Is there any other thing?"The first one asked.
"She mad mention of a guy... I think his name was Francis or was it.... Ok James yes James. That's his name. I guess she and James were dating and the relationship was kind of suspicious."I added.
"Did you see his face?"The mean looking one asked me.
"I haven't seen him for a long time but if you can show me a photo I'd recognize him"I said.
The first officer brought out a picture from his bag.
"Is this the guy?"He showed me.
"Yeas, that's him"I said. The officer looked at each other.
"Is there any problem?"I asked
"No not really. Thanks for your compliance."They both thanked me, wished my mother good bye and left the house.
I quickly closed the door behind them. "Mum, I don't feel good about this"
"It's okay, you have done your part."My mum said as she touch my face.
🧡 AUSTIN💖
I opened the door for the police men to walk in. Well, I have been living on my own since the death of Janice. My dad suddenly disappeared.
I had actually paid a police officer to inform me about everything happening.
"How did things go today?"I asked.
"We have not gotten the puzzle together. I guess there's something else missing. We have found two suspects. The principal and your father's secretary."The officer said.
"My father's secretary?, Chris?."I said. I was really surprised to hear that.
"It seemed that your father's secretary and Janice were dating."
"You are joking"I chuckled, "Janice and I were dating and Janice cant possibly date someone else cos she's in love with me"
"You are really slow witted. I had no idea you are like this."The officer said.
"Hmmm... Continue"
"We found that out from her friend and the principal is working with your father."The officer said.
"He is not his father"Sam said. I had no idea that he has been standing there for a long time listening to what we are saying.
"What are you doing here?. And how did you get in?"I asked.
"You seem more curious to know about everything than knowing how I got in here and what am doing here. I heard father is on the run. Why?"Sam said.
"I have no idea."I said nonchalantly.
"Austin, you are only a son to Mr Jones' friend. His friend d!ed early so his wife due to the shock also d!ed. My father had to take you in and took good care of you. I am the only son of Jones but I was born out of wedlock. Mr Jones has a baby girl whom he sold out because he doesn't need a girl child."Sam explained.
"What about the child's mother?"The police officer asked.
"She died when giving birth"Sam said.
I couldn't say anything out of shock. So I wasn't the real son to Mr Jones.
I stood up and begin walking around the room.
"All suspects always lead back to my father. I know he's behind her killing."Sam said.
"The only way to know the truth is to see Chris. He's the only one with the truth"I said.
"Okay then let's go over there and see him"The police officer said.

💚CHRIS💜
I walked up to Havel. She stood up almost immediately. I guess she is scared of seeing me. I can't do that anymore, I can't work for Mr Jones anymore.
I can't keep risking my life to do his dirty business. And I also have to warm this young lady. I guess she's the only one that have the right to fight against me Jones.
She soon gain her courage, carried her nose up and snare at me.
"What are you doing here?"She asked. She looked more like a hen trying to protect her chicks.
I wouldn't lie, I almost chuckled. My plan was to tell her everything, the go home and k!!! myself before boss sends someone to do that.
"Am here to help. I mean no harm."I said to calm her down a bit.
"Okay. So what?, Are you here to ask me about the mission?"
"No, I want you to record everything I am going to say to you now. It will be of help tomorrow."I said.
I oblige and brought out her phone, "I have done some dirty business for Mr Jones since I was 10. What h does is to bring kids like us from the orphanage train us and then use us for his dirty business. The public doesn't know about this. They all think he is helping us. Your father is a product of Mr Jones. He had worked for him for a very long time. But when he said he wanted to get married, he became a target. All the children your father has is his except from you."
"What?!, What do you mean by that?. Are you joking with me?"She asked.
"Yes, your real father is... Mr Jones. He is your real father. You were so little about 2 months old when Mr Jones handed you over to us for you to be k!!!ed. But we decided not to do that. We kept you safe and that's why you are here."
"This is not possible. Now I know why no one in my house really likes me. Is my mother beautiful?"
"Yeah, she's a very beautiful woman."
"So why am I ugly?"
"Aren't you beautiful now?"I asked.
"No"She said. She brought out a wipe and begin cleaning her make up away. Her real face came out. I wasn't so surprised. She looks exactly like her mother but I don't want to tell her that.
"You are still beautiful. You just need to take good care of your face a little and stop depending on makeup."I said.
"Thanks"She smiled.
"So that's all for now. I'd see you another time"I said. She thanked me.
I have done my part. It's left for her to do her own part.
😍 HAVEL🥰
I have to get this news to Sam. I called him on the phone and told me to meet with me.
So, if Mr Jones is my father, that mean I and Austin can't be together. Geez, I had kissed my brother. OMG what have I done?
Few minutes later he arrived with Austin and a police officer.
Sam looked so surprised to see me but I didn't mind him at all.
I sheepishly greeted and tried not to have an eye contact with Austin.
"Chris came over here. He exposed something"I said.
I played the record for them. They all looked surprised.
"Is anything the problem?"I asked.
"Yes Havel what happened to your face?"Same asked.
I looked away for a while, "this is my real face. Does anyone know about Ray's whereabout?"
"No idea"Austin said, "you look good."
"Don't flatter me"I said.
"He isn't lying. Why did you hide this beautiful face from me?"Same asked.
"You must have decieved everyone"The officer said.
"Except me"Austin said.
"Wow, you both really have an history together"Sam said.
"Ray is really suspicious. I guess he's also working for your father"I said.
"According to Chris, you are that little girl that was meant to be dead a long time ago. But somehow lived."Sam said
"Wait. Aren't you guys thinking what am thinking?"The police officer asked.
"Thinking what?"Sam asked.
"For your dad's secretary to expose himself right now means he would soon be k!!!ed or he is planning on k!!!ing himself."The officer said.
"You are right"Austin said.
"We will have to leave Havel for another day. Let's save Chris first."Sam said.
"I'll call for backup."The police officer said as we all boarded a cab.
🧡SAM🤍
We got to Chris's apartment a little bit late and a little early. We hid behind a window and was shocked to see my father sitting on a seat. He had two boys besides him. One of them was Ray. I knew that Ray was working for my father. I had a bad feeling about that.
"Isn't that Ray?"Havel whispered.
"Yes"Austin whispered back.
"Let's watch quietly"The police officer advised. He brought out his phone and began videoing
"So you tried to expose me?"My father said. He kept smoothening the k n i f e.
"I already done that. So k!!! me if you want"Chris said. All his body was full of injuries and blood dripping off each one of them.
I guess he is in much pain. I felt like going in there. But we need enough evidence to use in court.
"I can see your aura. Lets go straight to the main thing. I will make your d e a t h a slow and clean one."My father said.
"Anyhow you want"Chris said. He poured out bl00d from his mouth.
"Give him the injection."My father ordered.
