Now reading as MR Smith
Smith Drew POV
The following morning, I got up from the bed, still having a slit effect of the drugs I had last night, my feet walk downstairs and I took notice of my son seated with some business associate of the company, they turned their eyes the second my presence was felt.
"Good morning sir," one of them said, sewing my son's attention back, immediately he gets up from the couch and rushed over to me, "father!! Why are you here? You should be resting?" Darren says with a worried look on his face.
"Urgh!! I am fine my son, you do know how much I hate bed resting". I answered as we walked back together.
(An hour later)
Darren left together with them and at the same time, I veered and saw Karol strolling out of her room.
She smiles her way downstairs, oblivious to my presence, and the second her eyes fell on mine, it lits up.
"Good morning father in law!! I hope you're feeling better now". Karol says to me, and I felt she being sarcastic, so I muttered back, "good morning, and to answer your question, I am feeling much better, thanks for asking".
We both shared a weak smile, and she walks away, maintaining the exact look on her face, a weird feeling covers every time, Karol presents her presence to me, who exactly is she? And why do I have such a weird feeling about her?". (Frowns).
"Honey!!! Why are you out of bed, I was worried about you?"
I repaired my attention over and saw my wife ambling close to me, she wears a frown and middle to hear my response.
"My love!! I am okay, don't get worried about me, and besides, a little scare can't make me seize from being myself". I shoot a warm smile and walked over to the dining room for breakfast.
I waited for the food to be served, and the second my ration was given to me, my wife took and tasted it before I could, lifting my head.
"Huh!!! what's that for? I asked her.
"Nothing I'm just being careful" she airs out, donning a smile.
I know the reason behind her weird behavior, my wife figured it was best to get the food prepared by the cook, just to avoid not getting poisoned again.
"I think we should all be careful, seat down, and let's have our breakfast".
(She dimes her smile and sat down next to me).
Now reading as Karol Fisher
Karol POV
After a long day, sending time with my aunt, I returned home, the whole house was quiet, and it seemed kind of weird to see that no one Including the helpers was around.
My feet walked further and as I contemplated to myself, "where's everyone?" That's when I walk past Mr. Smith's room and caught the entire helpers was clogged up In his room, quickly I ran back to gain access to the reason behind the situation on the ground.
He says, "can anyone tell me where Jenny is? I haven't seen him for two days now and yet no one seems to know her whereabouts?".
The maids all talked amongst themselves, trying to figure out the truth, deep down I hoped no one knew anything about her whereabouts.
I figured it was best I left and returned to my room, but something dragged me back the moment one of the maids airs up a confession.
"I think I know where she is, sir!!".
Heeding to her words I veered and saw how itchy Mr. Smith was to hear her conversation, he proceeds again and ordered her to tell the truth and nothing more, we were all curious to hear her speak and so was I, unfortunately, another drama unfolds when Darren runs into the living room and yells out his father's name, which immediately gained our attention.
Mr. Smith ran out and saw me at the entrance of his room, he was so engrossed with the consistent yelling of his son, I viewed as he ran downstairs to meet him.
"Son!!! What's going on?" He inquired
Darren drops to the floor and airs out the truth to him, "father!! I  got news from Ajay, he just told me that the warehouse our goods was stored in, caught on fire".
Darren's dad almost fainted after heeding to the news, and if that wasn't enough, a man rushed in like he was behind chased.
"Abdul!! What's going on?".:
Abdul was the driver, in charge of taking Ravi to anywhere she wanted, he wears the same look Darren wore and said, "sir!! I drove ma'am to the market, and when she strolls close to the car, a gun was fired at her.
{Thunderstorm goes off).
"What!!! Where is my mom  now?" Darren inquired, thus without hesitation, dragged Abdul out to the hospital she was admitted to.
They left and not quite long, aunt phones me, "hello baby!!! Hope you finally got the news?" She says through the phone.
"What! What exactly do you mean?" I asked oblivious to her words.
(Inaudible conversation)
(A while after listening to her speak, aunt mentioned our conversation an hour ago)
"Now!! Do you remember?" She asked, fiddling to hear my voice.
Although we both discussed a lot of things, I didn't know trying to get Ravi killed was amongst, all I could remember was, trying to find a way to gain the property papers from Darren and now this happens.
"Look aunt, I don't understand why you decided to kill Ravi, minus the fact, we never discussed that". I answered through the phone.
She waits and after a few minutes, speaks loud to my ears, "excuse me!! I never tried to get Ravi killed, and even if I did, you should be aware of it, all I did was to set the warehouse on fire, that's all".
"Huh!! Then if not you, who else wants to kill Ravi and why?" I contemplated when my eyes veered and took notice of a man ambling through the front door.
