After the sad event that occurred in the company Jerry invited some authorities to investigate the issue to see if they could find some evidence or clues that could be useful in detecting the culprit.
Unfortunately the authorities couldn't find anything, when they tried verifying the footage of the security cameras they discovered that all the cameras were disconnected when the event took place and the security who was assigned to watch over the cameras wasn't also around.
That very morning the security didn't come on time, he came after the event took place,so it was impossible for them to detect who was responsible for the poisoning through the security cameras.
After the investigation the authorities took the security to their unit for further interrogations.
Before their departure they informed Jerry that whoever was responsible for the poisoning knew the company well and had planned everything carefully before taking action.
After the departure of the authorities Jerry convoked all the employees to the conference room for an urgent meeting.
The atmosphere in the conference room was very tense, the anger that was boiling inside Jerry's heart was visible in his facial expression.
Once the whole employees were present in the conference room Jerry stood up and looked at each one angrily before speaking.
"Good morning everyone and thank you all for being present" Jerry greeted them all.
"Yesterday à very sad event took place in this company and fortunately you are all aware of it. I don't know who was responsible for it but one thing is sure, the person is among us and the person should be rest assured that soon he or she will be discovered." Jerry informed them all angrily.
"I have been working in this company since when I was just twenty three years old and I have never seen or heard anything like this until yesterday, what on earth will push someone to poison his colleague?, whatever the reason was his action can never be justified and do you all know the image that this act will have on the company?" Jerry inquired angrily but they all remained silent.
"The authorities are still investigating the issue and whoever it is should know that it's just a matter of time before the person will be discovered no matter how smart the person thinks he or she is." Jerry informed them all angrily.
"Boris is hospitalized due to the effect of the poison and he might be absent for almost a month or more and because of that there are going to be some cabinet reshuffles." Jerry informed them all and they nodded in agreement.
"Daniel, you will be taking over the accounting until Boris is back or until I find a new accountant." Jerry informed Daniel who nodded happily.
"Catherine, you will be the new assistant manager to Daniel because he can't be in accounting and also be managing, so you will be assisting him." Jerry informed Catherine who nodded in agreement.
"Mind you all that these positions are temporary, once Boris is back you will all go back to your various positions." Jerry informed them and they nodded in agreement.
"Does anyone have something to add?" Jerry inquired but they all remained silent.
"If there are no suggestions then you are all free to go" Jerry informed them and immediately they all stood up and started exiting the conference room.
Before leaving Catherine turned back and looked at Jerry who was still sitting in the conference room alone and immediately he smiled at her and Catherine too smiled at him before exiting the conference room.
When Jerry returned to his office he couldn't help but reminisce on the sad event that took place.
The event kept bringing back the bad memories of his mother's death.
She too was poisoned in the company where she worked and she died on the way while being taken to the hospital.
Just like a flashback the whole scene kept on replaying in his head.
He was just twelve years old when the event took place.
It was a Friday afternoon and also a day off for his father. They were at the zoo exploring the different species of animals when his father received a call through which he was informed that his wife had been taken to the hospital.
Without hesitating he drove directly to the hospital with Jerry.
Unfortunately when they arrived the doctor informed them that she had kicked the bucket before their arrival to the hospital.
It was one of the hardest moments in his life, and also being the only child and a mother's child the pain was unbearable for him.
Just like that of Boris the culprit left no trace making it impossible for the authorities to discover who the culprit was.
Two years later his father got married to Cynthia but the fact that Cynthia never showed him any affection made him hate her with all his heart and since then the both of them have never been on good terms.
At the age of twenty one when he was in his second year of university he hired a new lawyer who started investigating the death of his mother once again.
Even though his father had tried dissuading him from continuing with the investigation he paid deaf ears because he had made up his mind to bring whoever was responsible for his mother's death to justice.
Since then the lawyer has been investigating the issue even though it seems like an impossible mission Jerry kept on financing him to go on non stop with the investigation.
As these thoughts were running through his mind he didn't realize that tears were streaming down his face.
Without hesitating he took the tissue that was beside his table and cleaned his face.
Afterwards he took his phone and placed a call across his lawyer who picked up after some seconds of ringing.
"Hello Mr George, how are you?" Jerry asked through the phone.
"Fine Mr. Jerry and what about you?" Mr. George inquired from the other end.
"I'm fine too, I wanted to ask how the investigation on my mother's case is going?" Jerry inquired.
"Well Mr. Jerry recently I have gathered evidence that has proved to be useful and from what I'm seeing they are all pointing at one person." The lawyer informed Jerry.
"And who is this person?" Jerry asked brusquely.
"For now I'm not sure yet so I can't give you any names yet, I'm still working on the evidence and once I'm done with them I will get back to you." The lawyer informed Jerry.
"OK Mr. George, thanks a lot. I will be expecting your feedback" Jerry said to Mr. George before hanging.
After the call Jerry leaned back on his chair and heaved a sigh before taking his mother's frame picture that was on his table.
"Mum, soon I will give you the justice that you deserve." Jerry muttered to himself.
