"Mary, may I ask before I proceed? Does Sam know about your secret with Zara?"
Mary's hand started to shake. Few years after she betrayed Zara, the news of her death reached her. She became too guilty that she never got the courage to see her even in her last day at the funeral. She lamented for her loss in silence and at a distance but somehow, she could never bring herself to regret the sin she had committed.
"Sir, before I'll answer your question, how much do you know about it?"
"I can support it with a legal paper."
"What do you mean?"
"I gave in to her desperation and executed the plan," he answered and a smile of satisfaction spread into his face.
Mr. Dioko watched Mary's eyes widened in fear as her face turned crimson in one moment then turned pale as a white sheet in the next. She stared at him in disbelief and in the next second, shook her head as if to wake herself up from a nightmare.
