Ellie, jemmy and Harry stood in front of the basement door when the cops brought out Marcel and Lauren.
“Omg,… What happened to Marcel?
Harry asked.
“He was shot three times… We need to get him to the hospital now
He has lost a lot of blood and might die soon”
Lauren panicked.
Harry rushed to get his car ready.

(Mr George’s residence)
Luke hit the table so hard with anger. He stood up and walked to the living room.
Those words Marcel said are still in his head.
“We are just pawns?”
He said again.
Jack and Lucy just looked at him.
“Has dad been using us all this while just to get what he wants?”
“How am I supposed to know that?
But I think what Marcel said is right, cos if we looked at it in another way
Jack shrugged.
“Your dad is using us”
Luke looked at Lucy…
“Do you have anything to say?
“Yes, I do..
I think our dad isn’t cos we also want a share in Lauren’s assets. We both h@të Lauren Quinn and we are all working together to get it”
Lucy said.
“Okay?
What if your dad finally have hands on everything. Her wealth, her company and her shares.
Whose name will they be under? George Quinn”
“Obviously, that’s what’s going to happen..
Then our dad will give us part of it to control”
Lucy replied.
“And do you trust him?
Can he do that?
“Ofcourse…
“Look guys, that’s enough…
We trust our dad but still our dad can betray us”
That Marcel of a guy literally said we are just pawns, can’t you guys think about that.
Definitely, Marcel and our dad knows something”
Luke replied.
Some thugs walked in suddenly, and seconds later… Mr George walked in also.
His stomach was covered up with aid where he was shot.
“None of you came over to visit me at the hospital”
He said.
“We are sorry dad…
There are lot more important issues on ground”
Luke replied.
“What’s more important than my life?
I thought I can trust you all”
“No, dad… We are the one risking our trust with you
We are scared you might betray us one day and run with all Lauren’s assets when we finally get them”
“What?..
Who said so?
Mr George was surprised.
“Then what do Marcel mean by we are the pawns you are just using”
Luke asked.
“Marcel doesn’t know anything… He only wanted to drift us apart.
Don’t believe what he says”
“You know, dad..
We’ve actually given it a long thought, it’s seems you are playing us unless you prove it”.
Lucy said.
“There is nothing to prove here… We are on the same sides”
“Then show us…
When her assets gets to our hands, some of her properties should be on our names”
“Ofcourse that’s the plan”
Look, I will never betray any of you… You are my family”
Mr George fake a smile.
Luke and Lucy looked at each other before Luke sighs and smile also.
“Alright…
Lucy muttered.
“Right now, our focus should be on Marcel.
He okayed us”
Mr George said.
“Yes… Those cops who came in to saved them were fake cops sent by his father”
Jack replied.
“Who could Marcel be? Who is his father? His father must be a powerful man”
Lucy wondered.
“Whoever he may be… He is not as powerful as me..
Mr George boasted.
I control the police force, I control everything that power controls.
So who is there to stop me?”
Jack smiles.
“But still we don’t have to let our gaurd down… Our main aim now is to kill Marcel or whoever he is”
Luke took his phone off the table and walked to the bedroom. Lucy also did the same.
Mr George and Jack were left in the living room. He signals his thugs to excuse him.
” What are you doing?
Mr George asked.
“What am I doing sir?
Jack was confused.
“Did you told them about our plan?
“No, I would never do that…
I guess they were just suspicious about what Marcel said”
Mr George looked straight into his eyes once again.
“Just be careful, Jack…
Or our plan will get ruined and you will get nothing”
“Am sorry…
Jack apologized.
Mr George walked away.

Marcel was still lying on the hospital bed. His face was with small cuts and injuries.
His shoulder, leg and a side of his left chest was covered with band aid.
Everyone stare at him every seconds expecting him to wake up.
Lauren paced around the room.
“Just sit, Lauren…
He is going to wake up soon”
Harry said.
“Wake up?
When will that be? It’s been three days now”
Lauren replied angrily.
Ellie walked to her.
“Calm down, everything is going to be okay..
Believe, Marcel is going to wake up”
Doctor James came in.
“Morning, everyone
How are you all coping?”
“We are all good, doctor…
Is Marcel going to be okay?
Jemmy asked.
“That’s the reason am here…
I think we have some complicated issues. It’s a bad news”
Doctor James said with a sad face.
“Omg, what’s that?
Is Marcel going to be okay?
Lauren asked with a scared look.
“Marcel was shot in the shoulder, chest and in the leg.
I must say… He is a strong man to have survived this. It’s a miracle”
I guess there is something keeping him alive”
Doctor James said.
“Revenge…
Harry muttered.
“The bullet hit his left chest where his heart lies but he was lucky, the bullet passes right beside his heart even though with his anemia condition.
His legs are also fine also as his shoulder but the problem right now is his heart”
“Doctor James I thought you said his heart is fine”
Ellie asked.
“Yeah…
His heart is weak and he could die anytime soon. The bullet that hit his right chest made it more worse”
Doctor James replied.
“How long does he has?
Harry asked.
“I couldn’t say… Maybe three months”
Tears flowed down Lauren’s cheek.
“It’s over now..
“Have already explained things with his father and he will be on his way soon to check up on him.
I have to be with other patients now”
Doctor James said and walked to the door. The door opened and Marcel’s father walked in slowly with his walking stick. His bodyguard walked in also.
“So Nice to see you Mr baker”
Doctor James smile.
“Good to see you, doctor…
How is my son condition?
“Still the same, sir…
Doctor James replied.
Mr Baker sighs and face everyone. Doctor James walked out.
He looked at Lauren and Harry.
“Lauren Quinn…
So nice to finally meet you again”
He walked to her and held her shoulder. He noticed her sad look.
“Your husband is going to be okay”
Lauren nodded.
Mr Baker walked to marcel on the bed. Everyone watches him.
“You stubborn son..
You dare not listen to anything I say… You will still be alive if you had heeed to my words”
“What do you mean sir?
Harry asked.
“I mean no disrespect”
“Your friend here disobeyed me, I told him to let me handle Mr George and his family but he disagree claiming this is his fight alone”
Mr Baker replied.
“Marcel is really a stubborn one”
Lauren said with a little cheering up smile on her face.
“Yeah, where is my grandson?
“We drop him at his school”
Lauren replied.
“That school isn’t safe..
My grandson was kidnapped twice”
“Wow… I guess he knows everything”
Harry replied.
Someone walked in.
“Sir, everything is ready”
He said and bowed.
Everyone looked at the strange face. Mr Baker smile when he noticed it.
“That’s marcel’s friend. The house manager”
Mr Baker said.
“What?
Harry shouted.
And he didn’t tell me about it?”
Everyone smile.
They know how Harry will feel.

Lucy drove and stopped in front of a jax bar. A man entered into her car and she drove off.
She stopped again miles away.
“Am all hears”
“Lauren Quinn doesn’t keep docvments at her home or office. She keeps them at the bank”
The man replied.
“What about her assets properties?
“They are all in the bank, inside a vault”
He said.
Lucy smile.
“Wow… What a smart lady…
And what bank is that?
“Cherish bank in Beverly hills”
He replied.
“Thanks for the information…
Lucy said. She brought out a gun with a silencer and shot him within the space of four seconds.
He shot him in the head. His blood splat across the car seat.
“Am sorry… I don’t trust anyone.
Not even my family”
Now, am going to visit the car wash”
She said as she looked at the blood stain. She opened the side of the door and pushed his dead body out before driving off.
“Cherish bank”
She muttered with an happy face.
TBC…
