Dylan and the blacked masked assassin were on top of a tower, a skyscraper building close to the Court building.
She placed her sniper gun gently on a straight surface getting it ready to shoot.
“Why did you chose to eliminate Robert now? After he reveals himself”
Dylan asked.
“We should have done that before now if we want to”
“If we eliminate him in secret when no one knows who is he except a few people..
That doesn’t make a sweet revenge”
“I want Robert to be killed the same day he reveals himself. I want the whole world to know Robert suntherland is dead again.”
She replied.
Dylan sighs.
She placed the gun and adjust the camera. The sniper camera shows Robert suntherland was on target with the red cross on him among the mist of Andrew and the others.
The camera caught Liam and Olivia also on screen.
“This is what we called killing three birds with one stone*
She smile.
She breathe out and press the trigger slowly.
“This is the end for you, Robert”
She said and pull the trigger finally. The shot met Robert in the chest. He fell to the ground immediately.
Everyone saw him on the ground with blood on his chest and immediately everyone ran to different directions.
Andrew carried Robert from the ground. “Robert… He called.
Robert was gasping for air.
John and jean quickly ran over to the car. Andrew rushed with Robert in his arms. He stepped inside and John drive crazily fast to the hospital.
*******
Robert was rushed out of the car with his body soaked with blood.
Some nurses came out of the hospital and ran towards them with an emergency evacuation chair.
Robert was quickly placed on it and drived into the hospital.
Kate and Ben followed the nurses to the emergency theatre room before the doors was shut.
“Please… Will he be okay?”
Ben asked sadly.
The nurse looked at Kate who was about to cry.
“We don’t know… We hope”
The nurse replied and finally shut the door.

May God help the people of California… 🔶
Liam put off the TV angrily and took his phone from the table.
Olivia saw his mood as she came into the living room.
“Everithing will be fine, Liam”
Olivia assured him.
“Fine??
Andrew escaped the Court case, he is going to go Scot free”
“And so as us…
We also killed Robert.. but now he is alive, so we get cleared off the book”
Olivia replied.
“Yeah… I know that, but it’s just…
He sighs..
“It’s not enough, for me
“I still want Andrew and Robert killed..
He move closer to Olivia.
“Don’t you want to have it all?” There will be no one to compete with us when there is no Andrew and Robert.
The whole City will depend on us, we will be the only richest couple in California”
“But Robert has been taken care of… He was shot in front of the court building”
We should be celebrating about that”
Olivia said. Liam was still holding her shoulders.
“What about Andrew Williams?… He is the most stubborn and deadly”
“We will find a way… There is a lot of time”
Olivia smile.
“And I have some good news for you”
“What’s that?
“Am getting back my memories little by little”
“Hmm… Really?
Liam asked.
“Yeah ..
Test me”
“Okay… What can you remember?”
“I remember most of everything, just ask me anything”
Olivia smile and hold his hand.
Liam sighs..
“Alright?
How did you get in coma?
“Really? Liam…
Liam shrugged.
“Answer it”
Ofcourse, I had an accident which was planned by the black masked assassin.
“Okay…
That one seems easy”
He said and thought for a while.
“Do you remember we taking a vacation to South Africa?”
Olivia became confused.
“A vacation?
I didn’t remember that”
“See?? I told you…
Olivia looked at him.
“Are you sure you ain’t lying to me?”
“No?
We did.. it’s obvious you can’t remember”
“Alright, Can I see some pictures we took during vacation?”
She requested.
“You said you want no pictures”
Liam replied.
“Now I know you are lying… You and I both know I do like to take pictures whenever we are having fun”
“Alright, fine… I lied,
I admit you remember everything”
Can I go to the office now?”
I still need to clear my head off and think of what to do about Andrew.
“Sure…
Olivia replied and suddenly both their phone beeped at the same time.
“What’s that?”
“I don’t know…
Maybe you have a message”
Liam said and brought out his phone.
They both check their new messages.
🔶You are next…
It’s reads.
“The masked assassin”
Liam muttered.
“Yeah..
Olivia said and roll her eyes.
“So now he is threatening us?”
“He is just giving us a warning, I can’t still guess who the blacked masked assassin is ..
I once thought Robert was behind the mask”
“Robert can’t be the one behind those mask. He is one of the assassin’s targets just like us”
Olivia said and sighs.
“So whoever he is, he is going after you and I, including Robert…
And he is not after Andrew”
Liam face Olivia..
Olivia understand the look.
“It’s can’t be Andrew… Andrew can’t be the black masked assassin”
Liam shrugged.
Who knows…
Life is full of surprises”
He said and then walked out.

A smile appears on her face.
“Let me have a look”
Andrew said and knelt down in front of her. He touched every part of her stomach, feeling the little swollen stomach.
“I think you have a baby bump now”

“C’mon… It’s time for bed”
“Ain’t you going to eat dinner?”
Rose asked as they both walk towards the bedroom.
“Nah… John and I already ate out,
We knew who is going to cook dinner today”
Andrew replied…
Rose burst into laughter.
“But seriously, Jean isn’t a bad cook… She has been taking cooking lessons now from me”
“Still, she isn’t good yet..
“Well…
Her meals are still manageable”.
Rose still defended her.
“Okay.. I will try her meal again, one day.

(The next morning)
~7:30am~
Andrew and Rose were still asleep. Rose slept peacefully on Andrew’s chest smiling in her smile.
The alarm on the small table beside the bed rang so loudly waking up Andrew.
Andrew opened his eyes and put off the alarm angrily. He Carried his phone from the table and check the time.
He sighs and drop back his phone.
Rose was still asleep on his chest. He placed her head gently on the pillow and stepped down from the bed. He stretched out his arms and stiff legs.
His phone rang. He walked to it and picked the call putting it on speaker.
📞 Doctor naresh…
📞 Morning, Andrew Williams…
📞 Morning, doc… How is Robert? ”
📞He is responding to treatment, I assure you, he will be fine
Doctor naresh replied.
📞Thanks… Doctor
📞Yeah, Is rose ready for her pre natal session today?
He asked.
📞Pre natal session?
I didn’t know she had one today.
📞 Okay?
Maybe she didn’t inform you, but she have to be at hospital this morning.
📞 Alright, doctor naresh… I will get that sorted.
Andrew replied and ended the call.
Rose was already awake as she stares at Andrew. Andrew drop the phone back at the table.
“Good morning, honey”
Rose smile at Andrew.
“Morning…
Andrew walk to her and lie beside her on the bed. He straighten her loosen hair behind her ear, staring at her face.
“How was your night?”
Rose asked.
“Blissful…
He replied and kissed her.
” Huhm… I need more of that”
Rose muttered and wrap her hands around his neck.
Andrew smile. They kissed again and again.
“Why didn’t you informed me about your sessions?
Andrew asked.
“I guess it skip my mind, I was too worried about you and when Robert was shot, I was not in my right state of mind then”
“Well, don’t get too worried about me anymore… I don’t want you to get too stressed up
C’mon.. get up, let’s get you ready before doctor naresh calls me again”
Rose pout her face like a baby.
“I don’t want to go”
“You have to go, it’s for the benefit of our baby”
Andrew said.
Rose stretched out her arms.
“Okay?.. You asked for it
Andrew carried her up and walk straight into bathroom.
“You are really stubborn”
Rose said and smile.
“Everyone knows me already”
Andrew replied and stepped into the bathroom. He got her down and undressed her and himself.
“Since you are being lazy to get up from the bed and undress yourself, I will do that for you”
They both got into the bath tub.
“I don’t mind if you bath me also”
Rose replied.

Jean said.
“Alright…
He sighs.
“I wonder what’s keeping Andrew waiting”
“They will be here soon, I heard bath showers some minutes ago”

“Yeah…
*What are all this money for? I don’t know my brother has this huge amount of money”
“Are you underestimating your brother… Remember, he is the wealthiest man in California now”

“I don’t see him that way.. he doesn’t look like he spend money”
Jean replied.
“Well, boss doesn’t spend money on useless things and he has to make investment to keep staying at the top rank of the richest”
“So all this money is to finalize a deal?”
