*A YEAR AGO*
Zach came down from his car as he walked towards the building which Jeffery said that they should meet. He didn't understand why his stepbrother wanted them to meet here, after all, they could have met in other private places.
He did know that Jeffery had bad timing though. Why couldn't they all wait until after he had broken up with Vivi then he could have used the call as an excuse to escape Vivi's waterworks which she always used to get her way. It worked on him during the early stage of their relationship but it stopped working when he realized that Vivi was using it to mold him as she wanted.
He didn't even want to be in a relationship with Vivi, she was just like the other girls he had a good time with but he somehow, found himself in an open relationship with her then they were exclusive and before he knew it, people were expecting him to propose to her. Ho

" Maisie asks Zach and when Zach glared at her she hurriedly continued. " I mean I always felt like something was off with Jeffery. Like, he was putting on an act but this is too far. " Maisie stood up unable to sit still anymore. " I mean why would he do that. " " Because he is my next of kin who is set to inherit everything when I die.

He recognized that name anywhere. He paid them to help him balance the accounts of his firm when it was still under him. And he visited them when Zach woke up to tell them that if anybody comes looking at clues that he should be informed. And although he paid heavily for that message to stick. He was glad that he spent the amount now. " Go on. " Jeffery said relaxing back into his seat. " We had a visit from a lawyer with your firm today. "" Okay," Jeffery said with a sigh of relief.

" And what was she doing in the water by this time of the night. " Zach asked because he could sense that Cassidy was keeping something from him. " It would be better if you don't know.

And now he would have to do something drastic because warning, threats and attempted murders are no longer enough. Jeffery was not as dumb as to believe that he could get away with killing his brother and his fiancée but since he was already going down he has no problem with dragging those two with him.Jeffery turned and look at Vivi, if he was less jaded, he would have smiled at her loyalty, he knew with all certainty that if it has not been him but his brother in this calamity, Vivi would have cut her loses a while ago, but she stayed with him and with the way she is giving him information which are useful to him like his brother words and the order he would soon get from
