WRITTEN BY LADY ANNY 🌺🌺
Caleb drove home and angrily went into his room without talking to his father even when his dad was calling him, he refused to answer. He entered his room and coll@pse on the be-d. (“What the fv¢k!! I can’t believe what Betty said to my face!! She must pay for this!”) He said aloud angrily and stood up from the be-d and was pacing up and down when his door opened and his dad c@m£ in.
“Caleb, what is wrong with you?” His dad asked as he walked fully into the room, Caleb didn’t answer him, he kept walking around.
“Son talk to me, what is the matter with you?” His dad asked again.
“Betty! That daughter of a nob©dy dares me.” He said angrily.
“What did she do?” His dad asked.
“Betty told me to my face that she will not kill Richa-rd as we agreed and the worst p@rt is that she is alre-ady in love with him.” He said.
“What? Then we must kill the both them.” His father said.
“No dad, you know we can’t kill Betty, whoever that kill Betty is in trouble.” He said.
“Then what do we do?” His dad asked.
“I don’t know I can’t even think straight, am confused.” He said.
“Ok, let’s call Jackie to come over she might has an idea, what do you think?” His dad asked.
“You are right, let me call her.” He said and took his phone from the be-d and called Jackie, she picks instantly.
“Sup honey.” Jackie asked.
“Am not fine, can you come over?” He asked.
“What happened?” Jackie asked.
“plea-se just come over.” He said.
“Ok, am coming.” Jackie said and end the call.
“What did she said.?” His dad asked
“She said she is coming.” He replied.
“Ok, I will be in my room, just calm down and wait for her and whatever she says when she comes let me know.* His dad said as he walked to the door while Caleb nod without saying anything and his father left.
55 minutes later, Jackie knocked on Caleb’s door.
“Yea come in.” He said from the be-d wearing only bo-xer, no shi-t , and Jackie entered, seeing him with no shi-t she began to feel him.
“Looking S-xy without shi-t.” She said smiling and bitting her lower l!pas she sat on the be-d.
“That’s not the reason I called you.” He said sitting up on the be-d.
“So why did you call me, the look on your face says something is wrong, what it’s?” She asked.
“It Betty.” She said.
“What did she do?” She asked.
“She told me directly to my face that she will not kill Richa-rd and that she is going to protect him.” He explained.
“fv¢k off!! What the hell are you talking about!?” She asked almost yelling.
“I am damn serious.” He said.
“So what do you suggest we do?” She asked.
“That’s why I called you, I don’t know what to say, think or do.” He said sadly.
“We nee-d to do something because Richa-rd nee-ds to die.” She said.
“So what do you think we should do?” He asked.
“I can remember you told me that one of Richa-rd ‘s female friends name by Dina is in love with Richa-rd but she is not happy because Betty is always around him. I think we should use that girl and Liam Mr Bruno’s driver, what do you think?” She asked.
“That’s a good idea but how do we go about it?” He asked.
“First try to convince them to un-derstand our game, I will personally talk to Dina while you talk to Liam after that we will s£nd some of our boys to kidnap Richa-rd ‘s mum and Betty’s mum and tell them to tell Richa-rd that his love Betty is the one that s£nd them to kidnap his mum because she wants his father wealth. Them we will tell Dina to decieve Richa-rd that she wants to show him something or take him to a save place meanwhile Liam will be the one to drive, on their way, Richa-rd will be adopted and bought this us in our usual place then he will be kill and Dina will be the one to shoot him or even stappes him after which we will call the police on her she will be arrested alongside with Liam, Betty and Jordan.” She said.
“Hmm, nice idea but how do we kidnap Richa-rd when Jordan is all over him?” He asked.
“Leave that to me, I will handle it.” She said .
“Master planner, this is why I always talk about you, come here let’s merry over our victory.” He said smiling.
“Hmm, it seems you know what I want.” She said as she claims the be-d and they engaged in a pas-sionate k!ssas Caleb give her the r0m@nç£of her life.

Meanwhile, Betty took her phone and called Jordan.
“Sup Betty?” He asked as soon as he picks the call.
“Can we see tomorrow?” She asked.
“Hope no problem?” He asked.
“I think there will be problem if we don’t handle it now.” She said.
“Ok, at what time do you want us to see?” He asked.
“After work.” She replied.
“Ok, I will informed the others.” He said.
“Alright bye.” She said.
“By good night.” He said and she end the call.

They all listen to Betty and conversation and the file was transferred immediately into their own devices.
“Hmm this is serious, what do we do?” Olivia asked. Everyone was slient looking at each other.
“We nee-d to act fast before Caleb strikes.” Betty said.
“You are right but what do we do?” Carla asked.
“I will go to Richa-rd ‘s house and tell him to leave this town with his mother for the main time, Jordan you will prepare their flight ticket while I face Caleb and his father even if I die I don’t care.” She said and stood up.

“Good day mum.” She greeted.
“Oh good day my dear, how are you doing?” Mrs Marsha asked.

“Better seeing you.” He said and they laughed.
“I want to talk to you about something.” She said.
“What’s that?” He asked.
“I want you and your mum to leave this town for now because of what is about to happen.” She Said.
“And what’s about to happen?” He asked.

“Son! Richa-rd !” Mrs Marsha called crying and the person took the phone.
“Now listen, do what you are asked to do else your mother’s corpse will be bought to you.” The person said and the call went dead.
“No my mother!” Richa-rd screamed claiming down from the be-d while Betty held him, she heard everything because Richa-rd put the phone on speaker.

“Hey consin, what’s popping?” Caleb asked pretending to be innocent.
“My mum has be kidnapped by some fv¢king nigg@s.” He said.
“What? When I mean how?” Caleb asked like he knew nothing about it.
“Few minutes ago and they said I should come over to meet them else they will kill my mum and you know I don’t want to lose my mum.” He said.
“Just wait for me, am coming to the house now, dad is not at home he would have come with me but don’t worry when I come we will go together.” Caleb said.
“Ok thanks bro.” He said.
“What are family for?.” Caleb said.

“Hey consin.” He said as he rushed to Richa-rd .
“My mum is out there suffering and Jordan has refused to let me go out, Betty was the first to st©pped me.” Richa-rd said, Jordan didn’t say anything because he don’t want Richa-rd to know that they are trying to save him from be killed by his so call consin.
“And why didn’t they allow you to go out?” He asked.
“I don’t know, they said my life is in danger.” Richa-rd replied

“Ok, you know what, you go with Richa-rd to the address and i Will call the Police, They will meet you guys on your way.” His dad said.
“Ok dad.” He replied and the call went dead. Off course Richa-rd and Jordan heard everything because Caleb put the phone on speaker.
“Go get dressed let’s go.” Richa-rd said referring to Jordan.
“I can go this way.” Jordan replied.
“He is coming with us.” Richa-rd tells Caleb.
“Alright no problem, let’s go.” Caleb said and they left. They went with Richa-rd SUV Jeep, Jordan was the driver.
On the other hand, Betty was walking home, she was close to her house when a message entered her phone from same unknown number, she opened the message and it re-ads (“come to this address below if you want to see your mother.”) She ran backward and boarded a taxi, since she doesn’t has a car. She didn’t know that it was the same place Richa-rd , Caleb and Jordan were going, she didn’t even know that Richa-rd still left his house, she was fast enough to get there before them. She pu-ll-ed out from the taxi and paid the driver, she walked gently into a building that was burnted, she looked around and nob©dy was there.
“You are Betty Lee right?” A voice said from behind, she turned instantly.
“Yes, where is my mum and Richa-rd ‘s mum?” She asked. The guy that was standing before her laughed.
“Bring them here.” He said and Mrs Marsha and Mrs Antonia were dragged out.
“Betty!” Her mother called.
“Betty Lee!” Mrs Marsha also called.
“Let them go.” She said.
“Betty, what are you doing here?” Her mother asked.
“I c@m£ to take you guys.” She replied.
“Liar! Your daughter paid us 5,000 dollars to kidnapped you and Richa-rd ‘s mother.” The guy said that was when Mrs Antonia knew that the woman with her was the mother to the guy her daughter is in love with.
“What? Betty!” Mrs Marsha called
“That’s a lie.” Betty said defending herself, her mother couldn’t say anything because she was too shocked to say a word.
“She asked us to kill you, her mother and Richa-rd who is on his way here because of your late husband wealth.” The guy said just then Richa-rd , Caleb, Jordan and police people c@m£ in.
“Betty!!” Her mother called as Betty turned back, one of the police woman sh0t her as she was trying to run and the bullet meet her on her hand and she jumped out from the window, the police woman pursued her, she kept running with her hand that was bleeding, she jumped some stuffs till she ran out of the police woman’s sight.
Meanwhile the guy and his boys were handcuffed.
“He is also among, he and Betty s£nt us.” The guy said pointing at Jordan.
“What? Jordan!?” Richa-rd called in shocked as he turned to Jordan.
“I didn’t do anything.” Jordan said defending himself but Richa-rd didn’t listen to him because Caleb has poisoned his mind, Jordan was handcuffed and was taken alongside with the guys.
Mrs Marsha, Richa-rd and Caleb went home leaving only Mrs Antonia who find her way home crying like a baby.
Two days later, Jordan was re-leased after some investigation and they found out that he was innocent but they never knew it was Caleb and his father’s plan and also police were still looking for Betty because they checked her name in computer, they found out that Betty has Killed before in br@zil and also in England, therefore she is wanted. Jordan went back to Richa-rd ‘s house but unfortunately he was sacked simply because Richa-rd uncle (Mr Benjamin) told him not to allow Jordan work for again because it dangerous and Jordan might kill him so Richa-rd did as instructed by his uncle.
Jordan went to his own house and called Carla to know if Betty was with her and he was told that Betty was with Olivia. Jordan called Mr Bruno’s driver, Liam, to his house.
“Once again you are welcome to my house.” Jordan said.
“Thanks so why did you s£nt for me?” Liam asked.
“I s£nt for you because I want you to help me.” Jordan said.

“I guess I know why.” Liam said.
“You do?” He asked.
“Yes, some days back, Caleb and Jackie called me and Dina saying that they want us to work for them so I asked them what kind of work, they said they want us to help them kill Richa-rd and bring you and Betty down.” Liam said.
“So what then did you tell them?” He asked.
“I agreed but down in me I can’t kill Richa-rd , he is a good guy he hasn’t done anything wrong.” Liam said.
“And Dina, what did she said?” He asked.
“She also agreed but I don’t know what’s in her mind, am telling you this because I want us to work together and save Richa-rd before he so call consin and uncle kill him.” Liam said
“You are right and we are working towards it, you are going to pretend as if you truly wants to work with them and whatever information you have you will come tell me and I will give you an audio recorder whenever they are talking always put on the Recoder, Richa-rd must not die.” He said .
“Ok I will do as you said.” Liam said and his phone start ringing, he starred at the phone and look at Jordan.
“Caleb Is the one calling me.” He said.
“Pick it and put it on speaker, let me get my recorder.” Jordan said as he reached to his recorder and out it on while Liam picked the call and put it on speaker.
“Hello boss.” Liam said… Caleb likes when people address him as boss and that’s why he wants Richa-rd dead by all means so that he can enquiry more wealth and powers.

“Good dad sir, Good day boss.” He greeted Caleb and his father.
“Yea you are welcome plea-se sit.” Mr Benjamin said as Caleb nod while Liam sat down.
“Alright!! The reason for this meeting is for us to discuss our next plan on how Richa-rd Bruno will die, since we have succeeded with the last plan, so what do you guys have to say?”. Mr Benjamin said.
“Well to me, since we have be able to take Betty and Jordan away from Richa-rd , killing him is very simple.” Jackie said.
“Give us the details.” Caleb said.
“First, Dina will get closer to Richa-rd , make him trust her without doubting her after that, tell him that she wants to take him out for dinner or lunch.. when he accepted, Liam will be their driver meanwhile they will informed us before they leave, on their way to any restaurant, Zac and his boys will attrack them and take them to the building where we will be waiting for them and when they arrive we s£nd Richa-rd to where his father is.” Jackie said.
“Hmm, when I call you master planner don’t argue with me.” Caleb said.
“You are indeed a master planner.” Mr Benjamin said.
“This is just a perfect plan.” Dina said.
“Yes it’s, so when are we going to strike?” Liam asked.
“Let’s wait a bit for like two to three weeks.” Mr Benjamin said.
“Ah dad, that’s too long.” Caleb said.
“Yea I know but we have to wait till then so that everywhere will be calm..” Mr Benjamin said.
“Alright no problem.” Caleb said.

“I missed you too, tell me, what was the out come of your meeting with Caleb and his father?” Zac asked.
“Trust your girl the master planner herself.” She said.
“I trust you baby, I can’t wait for the both consin and Mr Benjamin to die so that we can leave this country to another country to start a new life.” Zac said.
“Same here but don’t worry everything is in control.” She said.
“Are you sure?” Zac asked.
“Yes sugar.” She said calmly.
“Then come here let’s merry.” Zac said and they start k!ssing.
**
On the other hand, Jordan had s£nt the record which Liam had bought to him to Olivia, Carla, barista Daniel and Charles. They couldn’t believe it that Dina could betrayed Richa-rd just because of money, Betty kept crying and blaming herself for everything, she wish she hadn’t agreed to Caleb and Jackie’s evil plan things wouldn’t have be like this but it wasn’t her fault.
The next day, Betty decided to go to Richa-rd ‘s company to see him and also tell him what happened because Richa-rd and his mother believe that Betty was truly the one that s£nt those guys to kidnapped her. She dressed in black and put on long black jacket and went to the company,She got there too early and decided to wait.

“I c@m£ to explain what…..”
“To explain what? Oh you want to explain how you s£nt your boys to kidnapped my mum and how you want me dead?” Richa-rd interuppted her.
“No that’s not true, I will never do anything to hurt you, listen your life is at risk, your enemies are behind you, they want you dead your consin is……”
“Shut your mouth! My consin has done nothing wrong, Caleb and I grew up together.” He interuppted her again.
“Richa-rd , plea-se listen to me, I don’t want you to die, I don’t want anything to happen to you.” She said alre-ady crying.
