🔆End of flashback🔆
“Now i understand” Granny said..
“Granny i love braylen but i can’t abandon my mum’s last wish..Granny am confused,am truly in a mystery and i don’t think i can solve it..
I may have let go of the revenge plan but can i let go of my mother’s last wish.? It’s impossible..
“But Ara don’t you think there is something fishy about their deaths” Granny said..
“There is nothing fishy granny,i saw them that night,they were threatening mum and dad who were begging to be given more time to repay their money but the next thing i heard is gunshots..They shot my parents and ran out..But i didn’t remember seeing any gun with them but i know they must have quickly tuck the gun in their pockets and besides it was dark but i’m very sure they killed my parents…So granny there’s nothing fishy about it….
They are murderers who goes about ruining families…If not for braylen’s sake,they would have been locked up cos the evidence i have about this case is…
“Ara it’s ok..Just let it go ok?” Granny said and i nodded …
The doctor came in and examined granny.
“I must say, your recovery is very fast so you will be discharged soon” The doc said and walked out..
💕💕Braylen’s POV💕💕
..
We entered the police station..
“Good afternoon” Nanny and i greeted the officer..
“Are you Braylen Gregor?” The officer asked and i nodded anxiously..
“Your parents were caught involved in some illegal business but they kept claiming they were framed,so the ‘FBI’ agents will investigate them from the scratch..While all this is going on they will remain in our custody…Till the ‘FBI’ agents is done with their investigation” The officer said..
“If i may ask,what type of illegal business were they involved in ?” Nanny asked..
“Human trafficking” The officer replied and i felt weak with shock..
“What !” Nanny exclaimed in shock..
“No,my parents can’t do that” I said shaking my head not believing..
“Can we see them?” Nanny asked..
“Yes,they are in the VIP cell,just go through that corridor ‘cell 201’ ” The officer said and nanny rushed towards the corridor with me following behind her..

“Mum,dad..Please don’t let me believe what the officer is saying..What went wrong? I said facing them..
“Braylen,we were framed” Mum said with tears rolling out from her eyes..
Dad was sitting without saying anything..
“Framed..By who?” Nanny asked..
“We can’t also tell but our main suspect is jarett cos he threatened your father who refused to give him a contract worth billions..” Mum said sobbing..
“Jarett?” I asked..
“Yes the owner of ‘Edron College” Mum said and my eyes widened in shock..
‘Nicky’s father’..I said inwardly..
“Mum you have to tell the ‘FBI’ Agents about this..So he can also be interrogated..
“Yes we planned on doing that” Mum said..
“Sorry mum,dad..you will be out soon ok” I said..
“Nanny please go home and help my husband prepare his favourite dish..He hasn’t eaten anything,he keeps brooding ” Mum said looking over at dad..
“Ok let me hurry with it” Nanny said standing up..
“Braylen go along to help nanny ok” Mum said and i nodded following nanny..

I entered granny’s ward and quickly broke out the news for them..
“Braylen’s parents has been arrested” I announced panting.
“What !!” Granny and Ela exclaimed..
“How ?” Ela asked..
“They were said to be involved in some illegal business” I said..
“OMG,the poor boy” Granny said..
“Ela why are you smiling? this is a very serious case,the ‘FBI’ agents are already involved ” I said but Ela started laughing..
“Ela come-on” Granny scolded..
“Oh..Really,it will be very lovely to see them rot in prison” Ela said and my mouth dropped in shock..
“Ela we are talking about braylen’s parents here” I said to make sure she didn’t mis-heard me..
“Yes of course,i know it’s braylen’s parent,i don’t freaking care,they can go to hell” Ela said…
“OMG Ela what has come over you ?” I asked..
“Kristin,she doesn’t really have an idea of what’s she’s saying..She’s been frustrated lately” Grannh said to me..
“I thought as much” I said cos i know Ela can’t say such on a serious issue like this..
“So how’s the case going?” Granny asked..
“I don’t really know much about the case,i just overheard my dad” I said..
“I hope they are freed soon” Granny said and i nodded in affirmative..
“And i hope they rot wherever they are” Ela said but i know she’s just been frustrated..
“Granny hope you are feeling better ? ” I asked..
“Yes ,the doctor said i’ll be discharged soon” Granny said and i nodded smiling..
“Ela,are we staying with granny tomorrow or we are going to school ?” I asked..
“I will stay with granny,you can go just go to school” Ela said..
“No,you are both going to school tomorrow,as you can see i’m getting well..So you can come after school tomorrow” Granny said..
“Ok then,Ela i will come and pick you up” I said and she nodded forcing a smile..
‘What’s really wrong?’
‘I know there is something terrible behind Ela’s behaviour and i’m very anxious to find out…
💕💕Jerry’s POV💕💕
..
I entered granny’s ward with my mum who insists on checking on her..I met Kristin and my face beamed with smile..
We walked towards granny’s bed and greeted..
“Good afternoon granny,my mum is here to check on you” I said and mum went forward to greet granny..
“Good afternoon,how are you feeling now?” Mum asked granny..
“Thanks dear,am actually feeling better and will be discharged soon” Granny said..
“Ok,i bought you some puntas from the cafeteria,it’s a medicinal dish and i hope you will like it” Mum said stretching the puntas in a disposable plate to granny..
“Wow,thanks so much ..Puntas is actually my favourite meal and i love it” Granny said smiling..
“Really ?” Mum asked..
“Yes” Granny said opening the puntas..
“Wow,it smells nice and i know it will definitely taste delicious” Granny said..
“Yes it does” Mum said smiling..
I winked at Kristin and whispered to her to meet me at the reception..
“Granny i will be right back” She said..
“Ok Kristin”..

She walked towards me and i must say my krist is looking more beautiful in just s simple blue gown with blue flip flops..
She gave me a peck before sitting beside me and i turned kissing her fully on the mouth..
I’ve missed her..
We broke the kiss after some minutes..
“Jerry why didn’t you call me yesterday?” She asked..
“Sorry Krist,mum had to force me to help in the cafeteria and i didn’t had a rest till when we went,i was feeling so tired that i had to sleep on the couch even forgetting i had a bed” I said and she giggled softly..
“Jerry,don’t you think Ela is acting strange” She said worriedly..
“Yes i also noticed that,did she tell you what the problem is? I asked and she shook her head..
“Jerry, Braylen’s parents has been arrested over some illegal business” She said and i stared in shock..
“Really ?”
“Yes”
“How cou…” I was saying when mum interrupted me..
“Jerry time to go home” Mum said walking towards us..I gave a little frown..
“Kristin i will give you a call” I said kissing her before following my mum..
“Bye” she said and waved..
I waved back and blew her a kiss…She blushed and i smiled..
“I freaking love kristin”..
