" Are you sure you found nothing? " Inspector Peter asked. "Yes " the policemen chorused. " Have checked the gateman's quarter?" Sheila chimed. "No, it wasn't checked but it can't be there now" Philip said. "Why don't we just check, even though after the checking we can now conclude, there is nothing like such in the compound" Inspector Peter advised.. "Your wish, go ahead with the checking" Philip shrugged as then, Inspector Peter commanded the police who went on checkingand came out after few minutes with a suitcasewhich Philip found out that it was his own. He was disappointed in Frank but he wasvery happy he found the suitcase because he had earlier thought of where he would retrieve every document that was in the suitcase if really he had not seen it. On the other hand, Frank was astonished he could not believe his eyes seeing the policemen bringing out a suitcase in the quarter he lived where he never met with such suitcase. He closed his eyes and opened it back not believing what was really happening, thinking it to be a dream but opening his eyeballs, he found out he was really facing a reality, the bad side life immediately, he knew that someone planned it against him. " Frank, I am disappointed in you, I would not have believed that this suitcase will be found with you, if they had told me, but now I am highly disappointed in you". "Master, l can swear to this 1 know nothing about this case most especially the suitcase.I have never seen it before until today, and I never stole before, this was a set up Boss. please pity me " Frank said shedding tears. "All this I can't believe and at least no evidence to show that you did not take it. The suitcase was found was found in a secret place in the room... I don't talk too much, Philip turned to inspector Peter. " Inspector, please take him away" "Okay" Inspector Peter handcuffed him and took him off from the building and then Sheila and Philip turned to each other. How much will I thank you my dear wife for saving from latter destruction," " Come off it, why then are we married ?, is it not to help each other during tough times, for you to help my weakness, and I yours, Philip smiled and said " But all the same, thank you very much, can't love you less" Philip hugged Sheila and was about to kiss her he looked sideways only to find out that the house workers were there staring at them. "Will you go to your respective places of work" Philip said ruefully. immediately ,they all trotted away and Philip kissed his wife for a moment after which philip took along with himself the suitcase as he entered the building with his wife, Sheila. While Philip was in the sitting room, watching a business programme as Sheila was setting the table for Philip to have his breakfast.. when she was done, Sheila came to inform Philip that his food was ready .. "Wait before you, I remembered a man that lives around my supermarket who helped me out when my vehicle had fault. I asked him if he had any job but he told me no that he only bege alms from people, so now that Frank is gone, I think we should give him a chance". "Okay, good Idea but what is his name?
