And that he had double cross Jane. He is there waiting patiently for Gregory only to see Craig.

You!

Yes me, you think, he will come so you kill him? Craig asked in anger. Wait, is not what you think?

What I think? You kill Jane, after you and are plan to take Whitney out of the picture and you are after Gregory's life. maybe because she want to back out...

No, I only...

Shut up! Tell me the truth. Craig bring out his gun. You should tell me, I could let you go off the hook because of cathy

No, I... He didn't finish his words, someone shot him.

Craig! He yelled, he rush to him before he could take Casper hand, he fall over the edge. Casper!

He yelled! That moment, Gregory get there. Craig!

Gregory run to him, he run his hand on his neck. I swear, I didn't kill him.

You have to get out of here now.

But...

Can't you hear the sirens, they will arrest you? Run!

Gregory yelled, he run through the other stairs. Where is he? The cops surrounded them, Gregory and Ian raise their hand.

Your cousin, where is he? The cops asked. I am the one who..

Enough, You and your cousin are making a fool of us, I give you forty-eight hours to produce your cousin or you two will go for it, conspiracy. The chief said and left, they could not arrest Gregory because they were watching the scene live, Brett connect his phone to the prison, Gregory look at Ian.

Do you think that, they will go after him? Yes sir; especially now that they know he has an underground house.

Craig wanted to ride to his house but the cops are there, he wanted to go to his mother, they are there too then he turned to Jeremy's the cops are also there.

Ugh! He hit the wheel, his tears drop. Should I go to...

He found himself driving to Roland, he thought of going to Cathy but that will put her into more mess, he hit the gate of Roland's mansion, Roe is at the roof top. What is he doing here? He asked himself, Craig hit the door.

Open up! I beg you, open up! He is almost in tears. Hey, open the gate, can't you see that someone is at the gate? Roe yelled at the security, Craig is not expecting they will open for him.

Even if they did, he is not sure that they will welcome him but this is his last hope, he walked straight to the door but he just couldn't tap the door, he stood there but then the door open.

Roland and Roe are standing in front of him, he fall to his knees.

Please, I beg you, let me stay for just to night, they are after me, I swear, I didn't kill him, I only point a gun at him but I never pull the trigger.

What? Roland yelled, this son of his, is very stubborn.

Yes, Casper is dead

Really? You kill a man and then you show your face here for solace? Rachael yelled at him, he close his eyes, then the tears came down.

I will call the cops that...

Mom stop it. Roe said, Rachael look at him. Yes, stop it, I am sure he didn't kill him. Craig look at Roe confused.

Yes, I know that we don't get along, you could be temperamental but, I don't think you are capable of murder and you can stay is your dad's place and you should rest now. He dart upstairs, even Roland is surprise, he didn't expect that Roe will accept Craig, if Roe did not accept, it would had been difficult for him to agree that he stay.

Come in, let me show you were to sleep. Roland speak after a long time of staring at him. Don't worry, I could sleep there. Craig said, Roland just nodded.

Will you want to eat anything? Roland asked again but he shake his head. Rachael, let's leave. Rachael is boiling, how dare this boy, for all the places he had to take solace is the lion den, he fall asleep at the couch, Roe walked down with a quilt and a pillow.

Here, you could sleep with this. Roe give it to him. Thanks! Craig said as she collect it, he thought Roe is leaving but then he returns with a glass of water.

Here, I didn't poison it. Craig smile, he gulped the entire content, his throat is dry. Thanks! Craig said the second time. Roe look at him, his smile is nice, it's just like his.

What? Why are you looking at me? Craig asked him. Do you believe in curse? Craig titter. No, I don't.

Okay, I go to my room, if you need anything let me know, I don't want Catherine, to kill me. He dart upstairs, Roland is watching Roe, he is doubting if he had interior motive, Gregory wasn't able to reach Craig, he is frustrated.

Craig is still lying on the couch when the cops walked in.

Craig, wake up,you have to leave,mother had called the... Roe find himself wanting to save him, yes they don't get along but he is family but it's too late, the cops are already inside led by Rachael.

Here he is? Rachael point at Craig. I am sorry sir, you are under arrest for the murder of Casper. The cops said

No oh! I didn't kill him, I swear. Craig plead in tears, they pull him, Roland stood still. Father! I beg you, I didn't kill him. Craig yelled, after many years, he called him father, his tears fall, Roe run after him.

Stop it, he didn't do anything. Roe try to stop them but they take him away, he run back inside.

Dad; do something, you can get him out of there, I know he didn't kill him. Rachael get angry and slapped Roe.

What is wrong with you? Rachael yelled. That bastard is taking everything from you and yet you are crying for him or you are making this up?
