Chapter 5 - CHAPTER 5: MURDER

All Adria could do since her and her dad had met the lawyer was listen to their back and forth because what they said was either too boring or she had no other choice but to listen. She just wanted to get over with this process and go back to her mom even though she knows that her life has already changed because everyone knows that Adria Morris daughter of Rohanda Morris is the one and only heir to the Martinez money and stuff.

Only one thing caught her attention that the lawyer said was," She only needs a DNA test as evidence in court and everything will go well." And in her mind she was all like,' Scoff, why waste time on this bullsh*t I'm his daughter and if I ain't it's my doom.' Then the lawyer added that,"I recommend you to a security tight hospital ." He said that in form of a whisper because just like him she felt as if someone was eavesdropping on their discussions therefore making her look around the place until she caught sight of a thin man with raven black hair sitting behind the lawyer clearly eavesdropping. So what she did was to text her dad that,'Someone is eavesdropping would you know who or what.' Then her dad replied by texting,' I'm not sure but I think the Lucas and Luisa business twins are spying on me again.' So she texted back saying,' I'm going to change the topic tell the lawyer so he doesn't get confused let him just give you the hospital's card.' So Alexander forwarded the texts to the lawyer and Adria started her act.

"Yeah sir tell us the hospital Mr Martinez's real daughter/my bestie is in the hospital in her labours as you told us earlier today we can find her there and finish the DNA sh*t there. "Look she's not only your bestie or Alex's daughter but my girlfriend too. I took her to St Joseph's hospital you can meet her their." "Thanks Pete for telling me, due to the stress my friend was feeling I had to do her a favour of pretending to be your daughter meanwhile her maternity and stuff. It's alot to do." Adria added. "We shall be on our way Pete my grandchild is on the way." Alexander said. " I'm gonna be a dad bye." The lawyer said. As soon as the lawyer, Alexander and Adria went out, the thin guy called Luisa.

"Hello ma'am." "Yes Dave tell me." "Adria isn't the daughter it's just an act which is a favour to the real daughter since she had maternity stress lately and they are going for the DNA test." "Good job Dave keep on following them and get the proof to see if that pregnant girl is really the daughter." "Okay ma'am."

Adria had listened to Dave's conversation over the phone even though she couldn't here what was being said on the other side. She confirmed their suspicions and told them the plan she had in mind and the all agreed . So the lawyer took Alexander's car before Dave went out of the restaurant and Alex and Adria took the lawyer's car. Then the lawyer drove off as soon as he saw Dave getting out hence Dave following the car in persuit for more information. Adria and Alex followed Dave at a safe distance but not allowing any car to overtake them. Then the lawyer took a right heading into an abandoned alley which made Dave suspicious but a voice told him that 'Even rich people do illegal things just to keep their secrets safe.' Then the car stopped and the lawyer got out and Dave tried to take a turn back but his tyre was punctured and it was a bullet that was shot into it. He saw that it was Adria who had shot since she was holding a silencer.

"So you were stalking us right," Adria asked,"answer or I'll shoot your brains out as you see," pointing at the tyre,"I have really good aim so if you attempt to run I'll shoot those nice legs and you may never walk again." Then Alex intervened,"Ok Adria enough, no bloodshed at least now that is if he doesn't answer." "Okay sir."Adria replied disappointed but she never lowered her gun because she really missed using it.

"I won't tell you, I never betray my clients and that's how we are known even death can't cause me to say it."Dave said trying to act tough. "I'd rather talk if I were you because she might shoot and she looks forward to doing it so you have one chance to confess." The lawyer said.

"Never,"Dave said. "Okay then I guess I have no other choice, Adria."Alex said."With pleasure."Adria said then she shot next to his foot causing him to blurt out everything, It's Lucas and Luisa from the textile industry."Thank you I wasn't going to kill you even though I felt like doing so. It's called reverse psychology."

Dave felt like an utter fool after hearing Adria say that. How could she face Luisa after this so he smashed his phone to prevent any forms of tracking and Alex feeling sorry for him handed him a 500 dollar bundle," Have this might work for you until you get a more reasonable job just don't meddle in my life." "Thanks so much." Dave replied. "You're welcome boy." Then they returned to their respective vehicles and Adria got out a spare tyre and gave it to Dave saying,"I don't damage and fail to replace." Then she returned to the car and they all drove off leaving Dave behind.

As soon as they left, some men who looked like they lived in that alley came out and said,"Give us the money or tell your last wish." so he ended up giving the money since he was afraid and decided to board his bike and drive off but they shot him dead and also took the bike.

On Lucas and Luisa's side,

"Why isn't his phone on? I don't understand and I tried to track him down but couldn't get a hold of him his heartbeat can't be heard."(There was a tiny mic planted on his chest.) so we've lost a man and every reason to beat the Martinez." While they were still talking, Adria came in disguised and shot them both. "I left Dave to live but not you I have a life ahead of me and I don't want you as a distraction in it." She said retired from the building boarded a taxi and went home.
