Steph walked out of the mansion to her the car. She opened the door and sat on the passenger. George walked out of the house in thoughts and entered the driver’s side of the car “I believe your mother is sorry. But that does not mean they were not involved in one way or another. They are hiding something.” Steph said as soon as George settled down on the seat. George turned to buckle his safety belt and sighed “I saw the changes. They know something. Whatever it is, I will help you find out.” George assured her before starting the car. He looked through the side mirror before reversing and driving out of the house. They didn’t waste time and headed to the warehouse. As soon as the big iron door were opened from inside, a pungent smell hit Steph but she did not react much to it except slight knit brows. She knew the warehouse was used to hold other chemical stuff before it was relocated. She followed behind George in the dimly lit hall towards the end of the hall. There was not much

George caught up to her She leaned on the car and tears could be seen threatening to fall. He knew he will have her back to normal.

John walked her to the alter and handed her over to Leo before giving him few words. He pecked Mercy on her forehead and backed away two steps and sat down. She hugged him and stood before priest “We are gathered here today to witness the union of …….” It went on for a while before it finally came to “you may now kiss the bride...” they kissed. Everyone stood on their feet and applauded The Bride and the groom walked dancing out of the venue. The crowd followed right behind them celebrating. Just as they were about to reach for their car to go for photo-shoot, they were gun shots in air. Few people came right in to the compound and started shooting in air. Everybody fell down on the ground. It became really chaotic. No one understood what was going on. Steph for once got panicked. She didn’t see that coming. The security outside the gate were her best men from the organization. How did they enter the premises, she laid down and tried to reach for her gun. “Hey, hey young lady. No

“I can’t buy that, he has to live. He has to live” She stood holding her husband struggling carrying him to the nearest car. John saw her determination and did not stop her. He ran to open the door for her. He then went to the driver’s seat. He drove out of the compound. The gate was open from the moment the men attacked them.Steph was covered in blood.
