Anna Robinson sat quietly on her bed lost in her thoughts. She wore a dampened expression and her eyes were swollen from all her silent tears. Her heart throbbed from an anxiety attack and her head ached from so much thinking. Her mind drifted out of her body as she reminisced on Chloe’s beautiful childhood mories.
“Where did I go wrong in loving you, my sweet child?” More years flowed down her cheeks as she queried her troubled mind. “Didn’t I love you enough? Didn’t I teach you the right things? Didn’t I groom you to be a respectable young lady? Who did this to you? See what you’re making your father and I go through! You’ve turned your father into a monster.”
Anna quickly wiped her tears with the back of her hands as she heard approaching footsteps. She stood up and was about to walk into her bathroom when her bedroom door suddenly flung open.
“Albert!” Anna slightly scread in panic due to the way her husband barged into her room and scowled at her. “What has co over you?”
“Your crazy daughter!” Albert bood fiercely at her. His breadth reeked of alcohol and his reddened eyes flashed a deadly glow.
“If she weren’t from my loins, which I am beginning to doubt, I swear, I would have peeled the skin off her flesh.” He paced around in anger, looking for anything to trash.
.....
“Let ask you one question?” He suddenly paused on his track and looked ferociously at Anna, like a black jaguar about to devour a juicy prey. “Are you sure Chloe is my daughter? Did you really get pregnant for ?” Because if I find out that you cheated on , I swear...”
“Albert!” Anna’s suppressed tears poured out uncontrollably like a monsoon. “How could you even think or say that?” I could never cheat on you! Chloe is your biological daughter. You can do a paternity test if you want to.” She sat back on her bed and cried her eyes out.
Albert stared at his crying wife, with so much pain in his heart. He knew Chloe was his daughter and that Anna was his most faithful and loyal partner. However, he wished that Chloe wasn’t related to him. He wanted to badly punish her. He wanted to make her feel every grain of disappointnt and hatred she had planted in his heart. Above all, he needed to unburden his ominous rage on soone who deserved it.
“Oh, Frost! Frost! Frost!” Albert’s tone was chilly.
He made a fist with one hand and struck it severally on his other hand’s open palm like soone with a ntal issue. He spared his wife one sympathetic look and stord out of her room. He swiftly walked back to his ho office. He picked up his phone and sent a short ssage to Leon.
[I have kept my end of the bargain and your wife has gotten her confession and apology. Do this one thing for and we will be even. Send Frost over to . I own him now.]

After the APB fashion brand was vindicated from the alleged theft cri by the court, the organizers of the winter fashion show collection quickly had a brief eting. At the end of the eting, a decision was arrived at. A public announcent was made and the APB fashion brand was finally declared as the second-position winner of the winter collection fashion show.
Before long, the announcent of the APB fashion brand winning the second position in the winter fashion show went viral. There was a lot of jubilation and celebration in all of Amzone city as both new and old fans keyed into the APB fashion brand’s joyous monts.
The mood in the APB fashion company was one of double celebration. Staff mbers were so overjoyed that they expressed it in various ways. While so were chanting victory songs and dancing around, others took pictures, selfies, and Snapchat of the joyous mood.
They had all watched the confession and apology rendered by their rival fashion brand. When they listened to their CEO’s speech, so staff mbers were moved to tears as a majority of them knew how much work they had all put into the winter collection fashion show.
Finally, work could resu and staff mbers could move around the city with heads held high.
For the past two days, aside from the humiliation of their CEO, most staff mbers were looked down on and even insulted whenever they introduce themselves as staff of the APB fashion brand. Due to the excessive backlash and insults from the public, a few staff mbers had even considered the option of quitting. Hence, it was a big relief to them when the tables turned around in their favor.
In addition to the celebration mood, Ella sent a ssage of appreciation to every staff of her company.
In the ssage, Ella thanked everyone; from the least to the greatest, for their hard work and for not giving up hope in the company’s trial ti. She also declared a work-free day, encouraging staff mbers to go ho and celebrate with their families on the company’s victory.
In addition to the appreciation ssage, Ella instructed the accounting departnt to credit every staff mber’s account with substantial salary bonuses.
.....
Due to the viral court victory and the announcent made by the winter collection fashion committee, no one took note of the nearly assassinated Chloe or the grueso battle which took place about two kiloters from the courthouse.
In total, eighteen lives were lost during the grotesque battle between Leon’s n of the underworld world and Albert Robinson’s tugs.
Five of Leon’s n died from several gunshot injuries during the attack. While the remaining thirteen bodies were those of Albert.
The cri scene was cordoned off to a lot of onlookers, concerned neighbors, and news journalists.
Police detectives, paradics, and various investigation units crowded the cri scene as they sought different answers to whatever led to the battle.
Unfortunately for the investigation unit, they didn’t get much from all three black-tinted vehicles as they were all wiped clean of any incriminating evidence. So eyewitnesses to the cri, who were interviewed had little or nothing to say about the cri. They were too horrified by the cri and decided to play safe by not saying much.
Samples were taken from the cri scene and all eighteen badly maid bodies were taken to the morgue.
After a detailed search, investigation, and questioning, the cri scene was cleared and everyone went about their business.

Back at Leon’s villa, Ella was over the moon with celebration. The court victory and the announcent of the winter collection fashion show were just too much for her to handle.
In her high-spirited mood, she invited Denise, Tom, and so top officials of the APB fashion brand ho to join in the celebration. She threw a mini party to honor her guest for all their tireless work, efforts, and support.
Bottles of champagne were popped, mini refreshnts were served, light background music was played and everyone had a fun ti.
While the party guest were all having a good ti, Leon got an urgent call. He quietly excuse himself and went toward his ho office. He entered the office, shut the door behind him, and answered the call.
“Boss, a quick update!” Sky spoke almost imdiately. “Five of our n were killed during the attack by Albert’s tugs and others are currently receiving treatnt due to multiple bullet wounds. Also, the package is safe and out of the city.”
“Great job, Sky!” Leon said in a calm but slightly irked voice. “Albert will get what’s coming to him in due ti. Tomorrow morning, my wife and I would co to visit.”
“Okay, boss. One more thing, I think Albert is desperately searching for Frost. He is seeking blood at any cost.” There was a hint of warning in Sky’s voice. “I have credible intel that Albert’s tugs are currently rampaging Frost’s ho. If Frost or any of his family mbers should ever show up, they are dead at.”
“Noted Sky,” Leon smirked evilly. “If Albert likes, he can burn down the Earth. I will make sure that he never sets his eyes on Frost. Go back to work! I will see you tomorrow.” Leon ended the call and was about to leave his office when his phone beeped.
When Leon read the ssage sent by Albert, he let out an evil chuckle. “This bastard is playing with fire, and I’m going to scorch him slowly and painfully.” He deleted the ssage and returned to his wife’s mini-party.
Ella was in high spirits sipping a glass of wine and chatting freely with Denise when Leon took a seat beside her. He gently slid his hand on her waist, behind her back, and pulled her closer to him.
“Ahem! Denise cleared her throat causing Leon to chuckle.
“Denise, please can I have my wife back? I think you’ve had enough ti chatting with her.” Leon half smiled at Denise’s raised eyebrow.
“Of course, Mr. Treshvire,” Denise responded animatedly. “I can’t afford to be the bolder between you two as you’ve so rightly put it. I think it’s high ti we all took our leave and let you guys be.” Denise winked at Ella with a knowing smile and Ella’s face flushed with embarrassnt.
“Oh, Denise, you are so naughty!” Ella giggled and gently smacked Denise’s arm.
“Mr. Leon, am I not telling the truth? Denise pouted cutely.
“Absolutely! I can’t wait to be alone with this gorgeous lady in my arm.” Leon snuggled behind Ella and softly brushed his lips on the nape of her neck.
“Leon!” Ella’s body sizzled due to the electrifying spark Leon’s warm breath brought to her skin.
“My love, I still owe you a special out-of-town dinner and a body massage when all of this is over,” Leon whispered seductively into Ella’s ears.
“Sure, I can’t wait!” Ella giggled in response.
After a few hours of celebration, the mini party ca to an end and every guest left the villa to their respective houses.
Leon and Ella also left Amzone city for Bronx city for their special dinner.
Leon had been strategic in choosing Bronx city for their outing as this was the sa place where Frost and Jane were been held, as prisoners.
