Chapter 49 Regrets

He didn't know it would end this way. He didn't mean to murder her but she dares to tell him she wasn't going to continue the illicit affairs with him.
She was breaking off. How was he going to endure it that she would be sleeping with another man and not him.
He forced her, raped her and would have left her though. But she threatened him, she would expose their relationship. She would tell her mother what has been going on between them.
He can't take it if Kate knows what was going on, hence he was furious at her thoughts and ordered his personal guard to strangulate her.
To cover up, he shot Pascal as well and disposed of them through the help of his hired men. Now, the corpse he had buried, it's leg is outside.
Now, what he was afraid of has finally befallen him. He couldn't raise his head and looked at the men before him, throwing questions at him and taking his photographs.
The Billionaire Chief Dare Wilson is in handcuffed for sleeping with and murdering his step daughter. There's no way he was going to come out of this.
Everything he's got and all his wealth and money were Kate's. Kate owns the entire property. He was nobody she picked from the gutter and cleaned up.
She made him who he is and they got married. But then, she was a single mother with a daughter of a year old. That daughter was Kitty.
"You were accused of what crime Chief Dare Wilson", " Can you tell us what happened that led you to this point?", ``Is it true you are responsible for the death of the beautiful Kitty Wilson?", Why did you do it?"...
Many questions were being asked, some almost poke the microphone to his face hadn't it not been for the quick intervention of the police force.
Dare Wilson didn't answer any of the questions, of course he can't answer, which would he begin with?
His eyes had gone red and moist. The Journalists followed him until he was taken into the police van and drove off.
He would appear in court where his fate would finally be decided. At this point, Jordan and his men were done with the investigation.
They handed over the evidence to the appropriate office and were done temporarily except when called upon.
Kate Wilson stepped out of the force headquarters. Broken, shattered and betrayed. She never thought a day like this would come when she would experience her present predicament.
She thought such things only happen in movies and not possible in real life. She approached her car, the chauffeur who drove them to the force headquarters was shocked as he stood with his hands across his chest.
He had driven them to the force headquarters but now, it appears only the madam will be driven home.
Is the chief really responsible for young Madam's death? Was he a backstabber to his wife? He doesn't understand why his boss would be taken away by handcuff in the police van.
Kate groggily walked towards the car in her heavy mood, when she heard someone calling her from a distance.
She was shocked and paused in her steps. There was only one person who called her name that way. She temporarily shivered and carefully turned herself to face the direction where the voice came:
".. Jora, talk to Grandma. What would you have for Christmas?" Clara Duro asked, teasing her granddaughter and holding her by the waist.
"I will only tell my daddy when he comes for Christmas. I know he would buy me a birthday present" Jora chimed laughing and hugging her Grandma.
The television was on and suddenly they heard a breaking news. Clara looked towards the television and was surprised when she saw her son and three other groups of detectives.
"Detective Jordan Duro is the head of the group of detectives who had..." the news presenter was broadcasting and Jora paused.
She heard her daddy's name and even in her dreams, she would know that when her father's name is being mentioned, and the word detective is mentioned as well, she knows without an iota of doubt that the person being talked about is her daddy.
Jordan was shown stepping out of the force headquarters in bandage with his three colleagues. Journalists and press men surrounded him but the latter had this poker face that none of the journalists drew closer than necessary to him.
Jora looked at the aunt that was with her daddy. She looked like the aunt she had met in the amusement park some time ago. But why is she in Company of her daddy?
Her daddy had caught some bad boys but from the faces she was seeing on the television, not only bad boys but bad men as well.
Her father is a superman, a hero and she was going to prepare a present for him when he comes home to them.
Clara smiled. Jordan was doing what he likes doing. He loved being a detective and he succeeded in what he was doing. It's best to be good in what one loves doing rather than being remote to be what one doesn't have interest in.
Soon the news was over and Jora looked at her grandma. She smiled and Clara smiled as well. They both didn't say anything but smiled, they were happy at what Jordan was doing.

As they were about leaving, Tina knew Jordan was snubbing her after what she said a while ago.
She tried getting back to normal self but was not comfortable. Jordan had ordered the arrest of Kelvin and he was being interrogated.
They stepped out of the force headquarters and Tina walked behind Kunle. She was leaving with Isabella and Jordan was going to drive in Kunle's car home.
"Jordan, can I talk to you please?" Tina requested. She was going to tell him not to put it to heart what she said. She was anxious and scared when she said those words to him.
But when Jordan heard Tina call his name, his bottled anger let loose. What sort of senselessness was that. She said she loves him and he had pretended and not shown his displeasure, yet she is still after him.
He turned sharply to face her. He glared at Tina with hostility and looked at her from her head to her toes.
Isabella knew the words that Jordan was going to utter next will almost drive Tina to her death. His words would be suicidal.
" Ah! Jordan never mind, Tina was going to say goodbye, right Tina?" She asked, smiling and winking an eye at Tina.
"Why don't you let her say it with her mouth? When do you become her mouthpiece and a mind reader to know she was going to say goodbye?
What's the big deal about saying goodbye that she had to call me specifically for that?" He snapped at Isabella.
It is obvious that he was unhappy. Isabella was lost. She had no word for self defence and just looked away.
Before it gets too complicated, she went to pull Tina by her wrist when Jordan blurted...
