Tears rolled down his face as Julius stared at him and bursted into laughter.
“Are you surprised,”Julius laughed and grabbed the wine in the glass cup and gulped it at once.
“How could you do this to me Julius. I’m your father for crying out loud. I didn’t expect this from you,”Leonard yelled at him in anger written all over his face”””

Immediately Xander left the hallway, anger was written all over Julius face .
“d@mn it, “he yelled punching his hand on the wall as a footsteps were heard and he turned to see Mitchell walking towards him looking pretty in the school uniform””
“What’s the problem. Didn’t he agree to abort the babe,”Mitchell asked folding her hand around her B??@š? as Julius sighed heavily
“I know that you are in love with my brother and that’s why you must help me if you want to have him all to yourself,”Julius said as Mitchell stared at him.””
“And how can I help you,”Mitchell asked rolling her eyes.””
“You have to ki|| Lyla,”Julius dropped the bombshell as Mitchell gasped””
“What the hell are you thinking. I can get caught for it,”Mitchell replied””
“You don’t need to worry about anything, ki|| her and make it look like it was Xander that ki|| her. I have to be on my way now,”Julius said.””
“Sure as long as she’s eliminated, Xander will become mine,”Mitchell said as Julius brought out a cloth from the trashcan behind him “”
“What’s this,””she asked confusedly””

(STILL ON THE FLASHBACK)
Julius drove out of the school dressed in black shirt and black trouser unknown to everyone as he put on his mask.
“This will be more fun ki||ing the parents of the girl you love Xander. I won’t stop at nothing to make sure I ki|| you and take over the properties,”he muttered””
He arrived at the Marshal house and alighted from the car and shot the three securities guiding the house.
He entered the house and met the couple who were eating as he smirked inwardly.
“Look who we have here,”Julius said as Mr. Martin Marshal spranged up in fear immediately with his wife””
“Who are you and what do you want from us,”Mr. Martin asked as Julius Ç0ç?ed the gun and shot his wife who fell on the ground and died.””
“Nooo, honey. Please wake up,”Mr. Martin screamed as hot tears rolled down his face as he rushed to his wife who was already dead.””
Julius pulled the trigger on him as he fell on top of his wife and gave up a ghost.
He picked a pen and write some words on a piece of paper before putting in Martin pocket.
“Bunch of fools,”he spat out and looked at the CCTV camera there as he smirked and left the house.””

Leonard Callaghan was in his room working on his laptop when the door opened roughly and Julius walked in with his mask on his face.
“Who are you and what do you want,”he muttered fearfully.””
“I’m your nightmare”he smirked and brought out a gun from his pocket and pointed it at him as Leonard gasped in fear.””
“Please don’t ki|| me,”Leonard pleaded as Julius laughed walking towards him.””
He brought out a time bomb and placed it on the wall in the room as Leonard almost peed on himself.
“Once I press the remote, it will explode and guess what. You will die, so just quietly follow me else you will regret it,”Julius said and pointed the gun at his forehead as Leonard shivered in fear.”
He walked out of his room with Julius trailing behind him and he gasped seeing all his securities and maids were ki||ed ruthlessly on the ground.
“The CCTV camera have been hacked boss, so there was no record of what happened here in his house,”one of Julius said””
“Good, now let’s go,”Julius said as they dragged Leonard to the car and he looked around before walking out of the house and press the remote as the house exploded.””
“Nooo,”Leonard screamed loudly as they sedated him and he went unconscious.””
He entered the car and they drove off heading to thier hideout

“And that’s how I keep you hostage here,”Julius laughed sarcastically””
“I h@?? you so much Julius, you will never get away with this. I promise you,”Leonard yelled as Julius hit the gun on his head “”
Leonard grunted in pains as blood ouzed out of his head.
His phone rang and he picked the call immediately.
“I have kidnapped that ?îtçh, she’s with me,”Mitchell said on the phone.””
“Bring her to the hideout,”Julius said and ended the call and left the room going into the control room talking to his personal guard.

“So it was you all along, you kidnapped my brothers daughter. How dare you,”he yelled In anger as his eyes darkened””
“Instead of getting angry, why don’t you come to the address I’m going to send to you. Let’s end this once for all,”he laughed and ended the call as John put his phone inside his pocket and moved into his room.””
He grabbed a pistol and a machine gun loading them with bullets and left the house entering his car and drove off speedily.

Tears rolled down his face as the memories of the past came into his head. If only he haven’t told her that he won’t accept the baby, all these things wouldn’t have happen.
He never expect to met her after so many years and it makes him feel guilty.
He realized himself when he almost crashed into someone but the person was fast enough to move out of the way.
He stepped on the brake as Alexa who was panting loudly came to the window knocking on it as Xander rolled it down and he was in shock.
“Alexa, where have you been all this while,”he asked in surprise””
“Lyla have been kidnapped,”she dropped the bombshell,”she dropped the bombshell as Xander froze on his seat.”
“What! You must be joking right. How do you know that Lyla is alive and what do you mean that she’s kidnapped,”Xander asksd””
“I know everything right from highschool, remember I’m the only friend that she ever have and we both trust each other. The day she was pushed from the rooftop, I was heartbroken and sad but she survived it. Her uncle warned me never to reveal it to anyone. As a master of fact right now, Karina have been kidnapped by Mitchell and she was working together with the masked man who ki||ed Lyla’s family,”Alexa dropped the bombshell”
“What the hell are you saying? You are confusing me, which Mitchell and who’s the masked man,”Xander asked with curiosity””
