🌹CHAPTER 26🌹
MATILDA’S POV
MONTHS LATER
Everything has fallen back to a normal state and peace had been reigning ever since Elon, his boss and his colleagues were put behind bars. His boss was sentenced to death by hanging, while he and his colleagues were sentenced to life imprisonment with hærd labour.

I had my exams and of course my friend and I both aced it. Anita was offered admission into the fashion school she’s always wanted to attend and she’s been attending classes ever since the school activities commenced.

I was also offered admission to study art which of course was my dream course too and I’ve been doing well in the field of study. My model business has always been in place too as I got more companies I work with.

With john’s assistance, I was able to secure and launch my own clothing company though it’s not as big as I’ve always wanted it to be, but with time I know I would be able to expand it. The business has been blooming ever since I launched it and I still can’t thank God enough for making my life take a good turn this quick.

I haven’t been able to secure an apartment of my own, so I’ve been living in john’s other house.

He dismissed Gabrielle, Danielle and his other housekeepers and gave them some money for them to establish their own business instead of working under someone. And he recruited another set of people to work for him and for me.

I was walking at the school hallway with some of my colleagues when I sighted Mia from afar and luckily she saw me too. “Hold up guys, I wanna say hi to the lady over there” I said to my colleagues and excused them while they waited.

Surprisingly, she walked to me too. Hey girl! What’s up, she said as she got to my front. “Nothing much”i replied and we hugged each other and exchanged pleasantries afterwards.

It’s so good to see you again. Are you a student of this school as well? I asked. “Of course I am and it’s so good to see you again as well. I’m so sorry for all I did to you, I learnt a great lesson while I was locked up. I hated you out of envy and it took me to a really bad place, I really hope you could find a place in your heart to forgive me” she replied apologetically.

Of course I’ve forgiven you since a very long time ago. I’m not the type that resent people for long in as much as you don’t hurt me, of course I have to forgive you. Besides, I would never have come to say hi if I’m harbouring resentment towards you… I said and she hugged me again.

Thanks for that. I can see again that you’ve got a kind heart. I gotta go now, I’ll be having lecture in few minutes time… She said

Alright! I hope to see you again sometime… I replied and bade her goodbye.

“I’m so sorry for keeping you guys waiting, pardon my manners” I apologised as soon as I got back to their place.

You both seem like one that’s just seeing each other again after a very long time… Carlos, one of my friends said.

Yeah! We were once colleagues at work. I just had to go say hi to her. I’m surprised to see her in this school though. I replied

I got back from school and went to freshen up and eat something’s I always do. I was watching a movie on the TV when the door opened and John entered and directed his gaze at me looking expressionless.

Welcome! What’s up with you, why are you like this? I asked him but all he did was stare at me.

Answer my question and stop giving me this awkward silence. What’s wrong, did I offend you or were you pissed off by someone? Or did someone tell you something bad about me? I asked again.

Why does it have to be you, why? Why! Why!! Why!!! He shouted angrily and I flinched.

Please explain what’s going on, what do you mean by what you just said, what have I done? I asked perturbed but he walked out on me instead of answering me.

You can’t just leave me in the dark, answer me before you go… I said as I held his hand stopping him from going further. “Let go of me now!!! He said sternly and I obliged immediately.

How come I’m so scared of this John right now. What could possibly have happened, why did he start acting cold suddenly? I asked myself as I watch him exit the house.

Of course he doesn’t come to this house everyday but just once in a while, but he spend the night here no matter what but here he is leaving without even having a seat… I thought and brought out my phone to ask Gabriel if his brother told him anything but I got a call instead and it’s from Chris.

Hello! I said as the call connected. Where are you? He asked. “I’m at home, I got back from echo not quite long and John came here few minutes ago and acted so weird that I couldn’t understand why” I replied.

“Just make sure you avoid him at all cost, he isn’t the John you’ve always known, I know it’s hærd to believe and that’s why I need to see you, I’ll be there shortly, just wait for me, we need to talk” he said

Alright! Please come on time I’ll are making me confused what’s happening… I said but he had already hung up.

🌹CHAPTER 27🌹
MATILDA’S POV
I chatted Gabriel up but he didn’t reply and that got me more worried and scared. I called him repeatedly but he didn’t answer my call despite the fact that he’s online.

I placed to and fro in the house as different thoughts came running on my mind, but I still couldn’t think of where the problem could’ve come from.

I decided to give John a try but remembered Chris’s word. Everything has always been fine among us and we’ve never for once had any misunderstanding and that alone is what I’ve always loved.

I guess it’s the devil’s doing. My mom once told me devil always find a way of ruining a happy and peaceful home and this is another time I’m experiencing that… I thought

I was guzzling water when the door flew open and Chris cane in. I didn’t even know where the force came from, I dropped the cup in my hand and found myself at his front almost in a flash.

Come shed light on the matter please, thanks for coming. Now tell me what’s going on please… I said as I pulled him to the couch.

Relax! Have you ever had a mental illness before? He asked and I arched my brow. “Sorry that sounds offensive. I mean, have you ever had a memory loss? Do you remember every you’ve done in the past?”

No, I’ve never had a memory loss. Why did you ask that question? I replied.

Well! If you could remember vividly, John or Gabriel might’ve said something about their parent’s murderer. Their parents were murdered in cold blood while they were out of the country.

They’ve been investigating the case ever since they grew up and it was yesterday John sent some doc-ments to my mail…. He said

Alright! What’s the doc-ment all about? I asked and he sighed. He brought out his phone and opened his mail. “Check these pictures out” he said and I collected the phone from him to check them out truly.

These are my old pictures and it shows that I was younger. What’s my picture doing with you and how did he get them? I asked.

Are you trying to tell me you don’t remember being at the scene they were murdered? He said and I laughed softly.

What are you trying to insinuate? Are you telling me I know who his parents are or are you trying to say I killed them?. I asked

Well! Those are pictures from one of the surveillance cameras that was secretly planted in the room and it shows you had the knife they were stabbed with. That’s why I asked you if you once had a mental illness.

What on earth are you uttering. Why would you say i killed someone, do I look like a killer to you? Is that why John was giving me the attitude? How in earth would I know who his parents were not to talk of murdering them. What offence could they have committed to make me do that? I was young for goodness sake and my parents were also murdered. Why would anyone think of me as a murderer, why!! Why!!! I yelled out crying profusely already.

I knew you couldn’t have done that, and that’s why I told them we have to investigate further. The video cl¡ps might be edited… He said as he patted my back.

This men helped me a lot. They fought so hærd and risked their lives just to make me get the proper revenge, so why would I have done that to them in the past… I said

I’m sorry you had to go through the accusations, but I think we’d have to visit the hospital you’ve been using ever since you were born to see if we could get any record of your health issues. You’re the only suspect here and trust me when I say the brothers could harm you anytime. The an they’ve always had foe their parents murderer isn’t a joke… He said

I sat down and started racking my brain to check if there’s something about my past that I didn’t know but every effort proved abortive as I couldn’t find anything.

Get yourself prepared, we will be heading to the hospital like I said earlier and please don’t over think about it, everything will get sorted out soon. I’ll try my best to find the real evidence… He said

I woke up the next day with a throbbing headache and I got dressed quickLy and hurried downstairs to see if Chris is around.

I was about calling his phone when I heard the screeching sound of tyres. I rushed out of the house only to be welcomed by Gabriel whom I met at the doorstep looking furious and scary.

H..hi..I stuttered as I walked back into the house while he walk to me.

I can’t believe the one my brother and I have been helping is the one we’ve been looking for. Matilda I loved you like my sister, why do you have to be the one?

What did my parents do to you that you made you kill them? Why were you so angry when you family was ruined too? Why did you chose to cabbage from a murderer when you know you can’t bring those you’ve killed back alive? He asked angrily

I’m sorry, but I didn’t do any of what you all are accusing me of. Why would I kill a human when I can’t even kill an insect? Let’s just find more evidence instead of the ones you have before believing I did kill them… I retorted.

“I need you to explain this video” he said as he dropped the phone on the table which I picked up immediately. The phone dropped from my hand as soon as I saw myself in the video.

What’s happening, I’m going crazy!!! I cried.

Get her!!! I heard him say and look up only for me to see the guys come to drag me.

TBC…
