FLASHBACKS
(~That morning before robert was murdered in hotel at Miami~)
Maddie drove fast in a small sport car across the street of Los Angeles.
She was over the phone with Dylan using an earbud to make a call.
“Can you see them now?
Maddie asked over the phone.
“Yeah.. . I think I got Andrew’s men location, I will send them over to you now”
“Thanks…
“Do you still want to do this?.. We can just back off now and let Andrew Willams men do the work. Or maybe Liam’s men should finish the mission”
Dylan advised.
“No, dylan…
Robert Sutherland must die by my hands and by my hands alone”
Maddie replied.
Dylan sigh…
“Alright, it’s your choice but you must get there before they do”
“Am on it…
She said and increase her car speed.
“Send me their locations right now”
“Sure…
Liam’s men location just came in also
I will send both of them now”
“Thanks…
Maddie smile as she drives.
“Let’s finish this up”
“Do you get the suit? You know it could get Andrew williams in trouble”
Dylan asked.
“Yeah…
Am sorry I have to wear that,
Andrew will have to forgive me for this”
“Just be quick, Robert is going to reach the hotel soon”
Dylan said as Maddie’s phone beeped.
“Yeah, I got the locations”
Maddie said and scan through the map.
“Am still way ahead of them, they are some miles behind me”
“Can you finish it off before they get there?
Dylan asked.
“I can’t… I will need more time to execute our plan…, but I have an idea”
She said and stopped her car by the side of the road.
“Maddie…
What are you doing?”
“Am going to meet them and tell them to back off”
Maddie replied.
“What??
But we have no time, Robert suntherland will reach the hotel in some minutes”
Dylan said worriedly.
“Don’t worry…
I will be quick”
Maddie said and turned back her car driving to the opposite way.
She finally stop on a T junction road and blocked the road,parking slantly on the road leading to Miami hotel. She looked at the internet map as she watches the two cars approaching her.
Minutes later, two cars zoomed in and stopped. One of the them from the vehicle came out with his hands in his pocket. He walked over to Maddie’s car.
“Ma’am…
Will you like to get your car off the road, I have an event to catch up quick”
He lied.
“Yeah… Sure.
Am going to do that”
Maddie also lied as she remain in the vehicle.
The dark hair guy looked at her.
“Then do it now…
Am waiting”
He said.
“I am going to do that, just wait and take your time”
Maddie replied.
“Didn’t you hear me well? I have an event to catch up with”
Another guy came from the second vehicle wearing a sun shade glasses.
“What’s going on here?
He asked.
“Nothing… We are just having a conversation”
Maddie said.
“I need to be somewhere quick and this lady right here here refused to get her car off the road”
The dark hair guy explained.
” Miss…
Can you get this car away from here, I also have somewhere important to go”
He said removing his sun shade glasses.
*Hmm… Am so interested in where you two are going..
What’s so important that you two had to go quickly”
Maddie asked.
The dark hair guy seems upset and shove out his gun.
“Relax, man…
I mean no harm,
Ain’t you both going over to ki|| Robert Sutherland?”
Maddie said.
The two looked at each other shocked.
“How do you know about that?
The dark one asked.
“Cos am also going over there to have him ki||ed and I need you two to back off
Am going to handle it myself, alone ”
Maddie replied.
“You can’t…
Andrew Williams sent me”
The man with the sun glasses said.
“Liam Payne also sent me”
The other guy also said.
“Yeah… I know and am telling you guys now that am going to finish the job for you”
“Who are you?”
“You don’t have to know, just turn back your vehicle and expect the job done…
I don’t have much time”
Maddie said and brought out a gun.
“Am sorry we can’t do that”
“Trust me, I have been meaning to ki|| Robert Sutherland myself”
Maddie added playing with the gun.
***********
Maddie drove off speedily across the road. Dylan’s call came in again.
“We have five minutes before Robert suntherland get to the hotel”
Dylan said.
“Yeah .. am already on my way
Am going to reach there in about three minutes”
Maddie replied.
“Alright…
Are you going alone? Do you get to talk to those men?”
“Yeah… I am going alone and I managed to talk to those men”
She said… Soon later, she scoffs.
” I can’t believe Robert got so much enemies, Andrew and even Liam Payne,his most loyal ally is after him”
“Andrew wants Robert suntherland dead?
Dylan asked.
“Yeah …
“Won’t it seems more glaring when you wear Andrew William replica of suit?
You can get Andrew Willams in trouble and put him in a bad place”
Dylan said.
“He is Andrew Williams… And he is kind of involved in his death afterall…. If we manage to ki|| him”
So he has to endure any future problems”
Maddie replied and stopped the car, feets away from the hotel.

And nothing has been done”
“Detective…
You ordered us not to carry any more investigation since we found out the black masked assassin is involved”
“Yeah….
What has been done after that? Ain’t you all supposed to find out who is behind the mask”

(Andrew’s resident)
Andrew walked into the bedroom. Rose was busy on her phone as she lay on the bed.
The way he dressed looks like he just get back from work. He unhook his tie of his suit and drop his briefcase on the table.
“Finally, you are back”
Rose said and drop her phone on the bed before stepping down from the bed and walks towards Andrew.
“Yeah ..
Andrew smile and spread out his arms. He receive Rose warmly and gave her a quick kiss on the lips.
“How was work?
Rose asked.
“Stressful… A department of Wells Fargo stressed the life of me today. The ordering department”
Andrew said.
“Am sorry about that… You must be really tired”
“Yeah,… And farmished.
“I saw Jean eating dinner already in the living room. Did she prepared dinner again? ”
“Yeah ..
She is improving in her cooking lessons”
Rose replied.
“Arrrgh, she cooked again…
Another trash food for dinner”
“But she is improving… Don’t worry too much you are definitely going to like the meal she prepared this night”
Rose assured him.
“Alright…
He said and bend down to kiss rose’s baby bump.
“How is she doing?”
“She is okay… She kicks three times today”
Rose smile.
“Really?
“Yeah…
“Wow…
She must be so happy in there,
Andrew said.
“Yeah….
“Just have a shower first before eating, let your body relax”
Rose suggested.
“Yes,I am going to have a shower first, am really tired. John and I really did a hectic work today”
He said and remove his suit. The same blue suit he wore on the day when Robert was murdered.
Rose noticed that.
“You still have this blue suit?”
Rose asked as he help him with his jacket.
*Yeah… It’s one of my favorites suits apart from the tuxedos I have”
“You don’t look good in it”
Rose said.
“What?? I’ve worn it more than ten times now and everyone said I look handsome in it”
Are you sure?
“Yeah…
The suit look old, maybe you should dispose it, am going to get you a new one”
Andrew was confused.
“Dispose it? Get me a new one? What’s going on? ”
“Nothing?
The suit just doesn’t look good on you”
“Rose…
Andrew held her hand.
“Tell me what is it”
Rose sighs.
“Are you still worried about Maddie? She won’t touch Robert, Am assuring you.
Andrew said again.
“I know her past is painful but still she has to learn how to forgive”
“Yeah… But it’s not about that”
Rose replied.
“And what’s that?”
“Maddie mentioned something about wearing a replica of your suit when she wanted to ki|| Robert at the hotel just to take the suspicions off from her”
“Oh …
Andrew now understand.
“I get it now,..
So now it seems odd wearing the same suit”
“Yeah…
Rose muttered.
“Am not going to wear them again then, I will get them dispose soon.
Robert also might be offended if he sees it on me”
Andrew said.
“Thanks….
“So, can I have my bath now?
Andrew said removing his white inner shirt.
“Yeah..
Rose replied staring at his abs. She sighs and scan his body from his waist to his head.
“Can you stop scanning it and actually touch it if you want to?
Andrew smile.
“Have really missed your touches.
“No, have your bath ”
She said and move back to the bed.
Andrew sighs disappointedly and walk to the bathroom.
