Chapter 103: Chapter 103
THIRD PERSON'S POV:
The next day, when Samantha woke up, she was all alone in her bed, she looked around, wondering why she was alone, she was the last person to sleep, and it wasn't like she actually wanted to sleep, she just had to, since she didn't want to wake him up, she looked up at the clock in her room and it still shows that it is still in the early hours of the morning.
She wonders why she is alone by such an early hour in the morning, but she started hearing splashes of water, she smiles, knowing that he was there, so she decided to surprise him, by going to meet him. She initially planned not to put on her rope, she wants to just walk in there naked, and seeing his own nakedness, might bring him back to bed, he is the boss, he shouldn't be working as though he has no worker, but by the time she opened the bathroom door, Craig was not having his bath, as a matter of fact, he was fully dressed, as though he had had his bath earlier, but he was on call, but the shower was on, that was so that no one would know that he was making calls, or no one would eavesdrop on him. His eyes met with Samantha's eyes, he immediately ended the call, and they held so many questions, as to why he would do that, not like she doubts him, he would always do that, whenever he feels he is trying to be security conscious.
" What are you doing here? She asked, walking straight in to turn off the shower, so she doesn't have to shout.
"I didn't want anyone listening to the call I was making". He told her truthfully.
"And what are you hiding, that you don't want anyone to know about it? She asked. He stared around, wondering if he should tell her or not, but he later concluded within himself to tell her. He had made her a prisoner in her own house, telling her everything happening, is the ideal thing to do.
"I promised I would find the killer of Edward right? He started and she nodded, as she got really interested.
Well I guess the killer have been found, and he is currently being threatened". He says.
"He? She asked.
"Yes he. Were you expecting the killer to be a female? He asked, and he replied immediately.
"Well, not really, it's just that I was trying to run a little investigation of my own, and then I thought of everyone who had the motive to kill him. You are already ruled out, and Joe is claiming he didn't". Before she continued, he got up from the toilet seat, where he had been sitting, and held her by the hand to help her out of the restroom, back to their room.
"Why would you rule me out? He asked and she stared at him shockingly. He noticed the look, so he added.
You shouldn't rule me out, you were right to have thought of me as the killer in the first place, that shows you are a great detective, I need more of your kind, at the positional seats of the apple, because, when something happens like this, you shouldn't rule out anyone, the persons you least expect, are the ones that will surprise you with what they can do". He says, laughing hysterically at what he sees as shock on her face.
"Anyways, if you are trying to remind me of what I did wrong, I am sorry, I really should have trusted you. No matter how much you make it sound, all you are doing is to euphemize the whole situation, I should never nail you, before learning the truth". She says, and Craig noticed she wasn't looking too happy, with the way she was responding, so he decided to quickly change the topic.
"So what were you saying my love? After you ruled me out, and I am sure you also ruled Joe out, whom then did you count in?
"Well, Joe had the motive, but if he wanted to, he will end him and no one will question him, but since he says he didn't, I guess he didn't, but there is one person whom may not be so forgiven, and that is Joan". She tells him, causing him to look shocked at her.
"Joan is the woman Edward cheated on you with right? He asked and she nodded.
She is the wife of Joe right? He asked again and she nodded again.
Why do you think she would want to kill Edward, she used to love him, why would she want to kill him, when she is finally free to be with him? He asked, trying to get facts, from her investigative instincts.
"She might be clouded by hate and anger of the past. She was under the protection of Joe and his notorious group, but she never loved him, she was just using him. She fell for Edward, but it also felt like Edward used her, and not only did he use her, he attempted to kill her, which did not work, because I came to the rescue, and took her to a hospital in a remote village, with the help of Mary.
If Edward hadn't freaked out that day, he would have made sure she was really dead, because he was tired of living the double life, and he was very scared of Joe. She was saved that day, and almost immediately, my bad luck caught up with me, few things that happened around me, and then the accusations, I had to stop whatever that would bring me out, hoping she would be saved by the community and the government. I am not her family, and I was not expecting anyone to call me later, but I guess Pablo found her, and when she woke up, he took her back and continued using her, till Joe found her again. So from the little investigative skill I have, I believe she has the motive, but now they said it is a male, I guess she is ruled out. Edward did so many bad things, even I have a motive to kill him, but I have you, what more could I need?? She concluded. Craig nodded and even applauded her, before adding.
"The person was caught on camera, leaving his room, just after I left that day, he was on red, the face isn't clear yet, but I am taking that tape this morning to my computer room and I will work on it, the face will surely come out". He says, then grabbed his suitcase and is about to leave, without any form of intimacy between them, when she stared and called him back.
"Is that all? He knows what she is asking, so he came and planted a kiss on her lips.
"When Linda comes, tell her to take good care of you okay? He says and she smiles, as if she cannot take care of herself.
When he left, she sat back on the bed, and thought of everything he just said, she wants the video too, she might be able to know the killer faster. so she sent him a message, that she would love to see the video, she should keep herself busy, if she must be at home.
Linda walked in an hour later, and so did Sandra. Sam don't like seeing her face, but she must have come to check up on her, she shouldn't be so mean with her, so she smiles.
Sandra stood by the window, watching how Linda took care of her, she had a fake smile on, deep within her, she was so sad.
"So she really survived! She muttered.
