PART 12: THE BREAK (I)

THE BREAK

Jake wrestler has divorced his wife; the entrepreneur who is married at 28. His marriage lasted for more than....

Mary scrolled to see comments.

I hope she better found another business owner

Its a surprise she divorced him at this age,

what she will do now for a living I never heard a bad thing about him.

It’s her loss though

“the society is ill, they leave the comments like trash, even they don’t know the complete story”

“what are you? Speaking alone”
Mark asked her.
Even though he thinks Mary knows something about the case, they behave normally. He never asks, she never tells.

“These comments make me crazy; how can someone criticize a woman not knowing her story,” she said. Mark climb off the bed and took the phone from her hand to see.

“ignore these people. I think they are not interested in their lives” Mark kissed her forehead, went to the bathroom.
Mary is worried about Marshall, so she said to Mark that they went somewhere to spend time, they won’t be home tonight Mark after getting ready, went to the guest room, today he and Smith have a meeting with Jake wrestler.

“hey Mark, I am not coming today,” Smith said with a smile.
“I have a date with Allison”
“Mark, are you married, I never seen you take a leave from work” Mark prepared few questions to ask Jake wrestler. But he had another plan, too.

“Smith, where are the gloves”

“why? Again, maternity test?” he searched his shelves, then he throws the pack to Mark.

“no paternity test,” he answered and put those gloves on, walked towards his bedroom.

“what are you doing in the waste bin” He opened and collected earbuds which used by Mary, and put them in the plastic cover. He opened the cupboard and searched the comb, hair in a plastic cover.

“handed them over to Smith” throw the used gloves in the bin.

“send this to the same lab”

“Okay where is another sample,” he asked.

Mark smiled, “I’ll tell you later”

After reading the whole case scenario and his jail meeting with Helen's brothers changed the direction of this case.

“I met Helen's brothers a few days ago,” Smith is shocked.
“what did he tell?” The phone ringed from Smith’s pocket, it Allison.

“I gotta go Mark, I’ll send this to the lab,” he practically running down the stairs.

“and I want full details about this case” He is gone.

A few days ago.

“Sir please turn off your phone,” the air hostess said, her mouth revealed a polite smile. Mark did that.

JV’s death affected him so much, nobody knows more about JV than the Helen brothers. So, he met him again. What will he react to JV’s death? He told none about his visits; he feels that someone always watches his move towards his case. So, he kept his visit secret.

The flight landed in Hirak he stayed in a hotel. “sir can I speak to Mr. Dean” he asked through the phone.

“I need your help”

“yes Mark,” the other end said; he said, and arranged the meeting with Helen.

“I have news for you,” Mark said. Helen sat uninterested; he has no choice but to listen.

“don’t you wanna hear?”

“no, can you send me back” Helen barked?

“of course not, JV is dead” Mark waited to observe his reaction. He is slightly surprised.

“Okay, why are you telling me this”

“You said he killed your brother; don’t you be happy”

“yes, it’s no surprise, everyone in this field either die or live in jail”

“I think this murder is linked to the fire accident case”

“If I tell you the information I know, what I got in return”

“I’ll get bail. I spoke to Mr. dean regarding, he’ll be your guardian”

“okay after I got the bail, I’ll tell you”
“no, you take the deal or not, I have no time to bargain”


“Okay man” Will’s foundation was used for foster children’s education and accommodation. Wrestler’s family had the highest percentage of the foundation. Lately, I heard some of them use this place to hide black money; we planned to rob it,

We got the blueprint and planned to rob in date. Back then I was young and reckless.

We got that information its JV’s area which means they have planned something in that place. But we ignored that warning. And then we successfully got into the building’s main office, we cut all the alarm services and tied the security.

We tried to break the locker with a razor. The sounds we made thrilled ourselves. Finally, we broke this we heard a siren at a distance.

When I opened the locker there is nothing to rob, it’s empty. The next week they gonna celebrate the 5th anniversary so that we planned before. But I never realized it's JV’s target. Police arrested my brother, we two escaped. They put us in the newspaper even though we are doing nothing. Helen's last brother was released and shot by JV. I asked JV what we did wrong you know what he said. He said it would create suspicion.

Mark listened silently, the guard interrupts them “sir time is over”

“Okay, five more minutes,” Mark said, and looked at Helen to continue. But he remained silent.

“then what happened?”

“nothing, we left Moshi, then I heard the money is burnt with people”

“so, you tell me that accident is not an accident, it planned already”

“that’s not I told, I told what happened, what about my bail?” Mark stood up from the chair, walked back.

“sir... sir... THIS WON’T BE THE END,” Mark returned after hearing,

“I do as I promised,” Helen calmed.

Then returned to the hotel. Thinks about how the accident of the foundation is the beginning of all.
