Suspects: murder case

Chapter 24

Chapter 24

 She is alive?

She is the one

   Braxton must not find out.

My goodness! Why is Connor so stubborn.

  I picked up my phone and dailed Mrs Newton's(Brielle's mom) number.

Hello Kat

  Mrs Braxton

"Kat am in deep trouble."

  "What happened?"

"Shelly is alive."

"What? How?"

"What should l do? She is living with Connor and he likes her already."

"My goodness this is bad, this is bad."

    "What about Mr Abby."

"He is dead."

  "What? Don't tell me you killed him Helen."

    "Yes l did, he lied to us , he lied to us , he was the person that adopted the child,am doomed kat am doomed."

  "Why did you kill him Helen, what were you thinking?

He is the only person that knows the d**g.

  I checked the drugs yesterday and found out it was empty."

"What?how did it happen?"

"I don't know Helen but l think Brielle found out something."

"She what, my goodness we are doomed for real, Kat what should l do? What should l do?"

  "Calm down okay we will figure out something really quick."

"Shelly doesn't know anything yet but l think Brielle knows something and she was the one that took the drugs, so we have to handle Brielle."

   "Yes l will handle her" l said and hung

 up.

I went to my room after my little chat with Connor.

   Just talking to him is making my heart wanna burst.

  I wrapped a towel round my body and took a bath quickly.

  There are so many clothes in here what should l wear?

  If he had said it quite earlier,l would have told Ariel to come over to come pick me a dress.

   I heard a knock on the door and rushed to open it with a towel wrapped around my body.

    "Connor, why are you here?"

  "Hmm geez lzzy what are you wearing?"

"Huh what? I just took a bath."

"I bought this for you" he said and slammed the door shut.

  What the hell was that?

I said as l opened thr package.

Woooow! this is awesome.

  Holly hell

No way, no f*****g way.

Isn't this the same dress wore by that celebrity what's her name?

  What's her name?

Nicki Minaj.

My goodness! Am really going to wear this.

  Out of excitement l wore the clothes without wearing any undies.

 This is crazy l mumbled and took off the dress and wore my undies before putting it on again.

I look like Nicki Minaj l said and twirled in front of the dressing mirror.

There was a knock on the door again.

   Who is disturbing my happy moment?

I opened the door and met two ladies smiling sweetly at me.

  "How may l help you?" I asked.

They look like Barbie dolls.

  Mr Connor said we should attend to you miss.

  "Come in" l said and they entered.

 "Come sit" one of the lady said and gestured me to sit in front of the dressing mirror.

They started working on my face.

I was getting bored already.

   Do they want to use all the make up on my face.

"Done" she said and l opened my eyes immediately.

  Wait what?

Is this really me?

"You look different, you beautiful" she complimented and l smiled shyly.

"Wow, l really look different" l said and gave them a thumbs up.

My hair was braided and l wore a blonde wig.

  "She looks like Brielle" one of the ladies said.

"Yes with this wig on" the other added.

  "Now l know why Connor can't resist you" one of the ladies said and l smiled.

 She stretch out her hand and l took it.

  "My name is Della am Connor's best friend, though that prick has no time for me, and am the owner of Get in,be different."

"Wow! Nice to meet you" l said.

  "The pleasure is mine, this is my complimentary card, call me when you need me for stuffs like this."

 "Thanks Della."

  "Don't mention, l will take my leave now, have fun with your date."

My date?

  I took some quick selfie, Ariel has to see the Daniella am seeing in the mirror right now.

Never knew Connor has a best friend.

A celebrity best friend.

I wore a low heel and grabbed my purse.

  Am feeling extremely nervous.

I took one final look at myself in the mirror and scurried out.

   I got downstairs and my mouth opened slightly at the Connor am seeing.

Fine! I know he is hot but have never seen this version of his hotness.

  He looks like my goodness am speechless,is he a god or something?

Am clearly drooling.

 Ok l don't think am the only one drooling.

    Connor is clearly drooling too.

"Connor enough staring" l yelled and he woke up from his daze.

  His face flushed in embarrassment.

"You look breathtaking,l can't help but to be lost staring at you" he said and l blushed hard.

"You don't look bad either" l said.

  "Let's go" he said and took my hand.

   We got into the car and drove off.

After the long drive.

  "Here we are" he announced.

Whoa this place is beautiful l muttered as we walked into the cinema.

     "You booked this whole place for just you and l?" 

   "Yes you don't like it?"

"I love it,the view is breathtaking."

  "But l think you are more breathtaking" he said and l blushed.

  "Come let me show you something" he said and drags me along.

We got to a large room the lights were dim.

 There was a dining filled with lots of sea foods.

"Wow! Sea foods l love sea foods."

"I love sea food" she said and l sighed in relief.

   "Am glad you love it"

"Are we staying here for the night?" She asked.

"If you wish, have already prepared two rooms in case we might spend the night."

"That's great" she said .

  "Are we going to watch a movie?"

   "Yes we are" l replied and she squealed excitedly.

 Wow l love this childish side of her.

"Let's go wash the movie, this movie was specifically made for you." I said.

  "Really?"

"Yeah, come let's go watch."

"Here your popcorn."

  "Thanks" she said and collects it.

   The movie started and it was animated.

She squirmed uncomfortable and l knew she wanted to yell

  Why the hell is it animated but she kept calm.

The movie was a reenactment of the first day we met.

As l watched l was getting teary already.

  Connor!

"Shush" he said.

    "Just keep watching."

The first scene shows a young man lying inside a bush whimpering.

   "Save me" he said feebly.

A girl came running to meet him.

   "Save me" he told the girl and fell unconscious.

    Second scene.

The young man woke up to find himself in an unfamilar room.

    What the hell! He exclaimed as he stared at himself wearing a girl's cloth.

I smiled out tears.

 The door creaked open and a girl walked in.

   "You bought me here, thank you for saving me" the young man said.

  "You are Connor Braxton never thought l will meet you in person" the girl said.

   "What's your name?" The young man asked.

  "Am Daniella! Daniella Abby." She replied.

     "You need to see a doctor your wounds are deep and your skin is flabby, l just applied first aid you need a proper treatment."

"Do you have a cellphone?" The young man asked.

"Well l had one until yesterday l had to sell it to save a stranger's life" the girl said.

  "How do you mean?" The young man asked.

"The bondages, antiseptics and medicines were bought with the money" the girl said.

   "Stop it Connor, just stop it" l said as tears flowed freely from my eyes.

  "Izzy, this was the first and second day we met and l will forever treasure this memory,l love you Daniella, l love you so much."

 "The moment l saw you, l made a resolve and that resolve is never to let you go." 

 "Am sorry l made you cry l never knew you will become this emotional."

  "Its okay Connor, am fine" l said and gave him a small smile.

 He brought out an handkerchief and used it in wiping my tears.

  "I hate to see you cry" he mumbled.

   "Let's eat shall we?"

"Yes, let's enjoy the night" l said.

     "Eat up" he urged.

"No you eat up" l said.

  "Am fine, l want to watch you eat" he said l smiled. 

  "Connor!" I called.

"Yes lzzy."

"Connor l .........l think l love you too."

   "Hello Barbara."

  "Hey babes, how are you doing?"

"Barbara please come quickly l have something to tell you."

  "Brielle are you crying?"

  "Just come over will you?".

 "Am on my way" she said and l hung up.

  How could this happen

 How could they do this to me?

How could she do this to us?

  The door creaked open and Barbara rushed in.

   "Brielle wassup."

   "Like seriously you are crying, Brielle is crying, like like our almighty Brielle is crying."

  "Will you just keep shut."

"Am sorry, l was just surprised, come on babes stop crying and tell me the problem already."

   "Daniella!"

"Oh! Daniella she went out on a date with Connor swears she is damn goergous with that pretty face and sexy curves."

"Can you hear yourself, l never asked for details, did you come here to mock me."

  "Fine, am sorry, l was just blabbing."

  "What happened Brielle, have never seen you this disoriented."

"I once told you mom was hiding something."

"Yes l remember, so did you find out anything?"

  "I should never have found out."

"Why, what are you saying ?you were hell bent on finding it, so what's with this regret."

"Yeah,but now l regret it, l really regret it."

  "Okay calm down Brielle and talk to me, what did you find out?"

"Daniella!"

"Yes Daniella!"

   "Daniella is my twin sister."

"Holy babyJesus!"

"Am not done yet."

 "Mrs Braxton is my biological mother."

"What?"

  "You what?"

"I love you Connor" she said and l froze.

  I don't know if l should laugh, smile or just jump up in excitement.

"You do?"

"Yes l love you."

  "I love you more Daniella, l love you so much l said and slammed my lips on hers."

   I kissed her deeply like my life depends on it.

  Damn! This feels so good.

This is what have eagerly be waiting for.

She broke the kiss and we try to catch our breathe.

   She held her face down.

"You are shy? Look at me Daniella."

  "She raised her eyes slowly to look at me and l licked my lips seductively."

  "You tasted like strawberries"l said.

And her face turned red.

   "Fine! Stop being shy okay, l have something to give you."

   "Here is your admission later."

"Wait what? My goodness Connor you enrolled me into Weban, thank you Connor that's my dream college."

"I knew."

"You knew?"

  "Yes, there is nothing l don't know about you lzzy l know everything about you.".

"You are such a snitch."

   "Yeah yeah, everything have been prepared you can start as soon as they resume, l employed someone l trust to take good care of your mother when you are away, Don't worry everything is in order."

  "Thanks Connor, thank you so much."

"Did you receive an alert?"

   "What alert?"

"I sent your salary."

       "But l don't have an account, how is it possible."

   "Check your messages."

"What the........hmm Connor this sum l mean isn't this too much for a one month salary."

"It's okay Daniella! You don't how happy l am right now, l hope to do lots of tangible things for you .

I love you Daniella, from the first day l saw you, you unlocked something in me and l swore never to let you go."

"I know it's sudden but l want to spend every minute, every second, every hour, every day, every week, every month, every year and my lifetime with you."

"I don't have a ring but please will you marry me?"

     "Connor..........l "

"Please marry me" l said and she stood frozen to the spot and there was a grave silence.

Please Daniella l .................

     "Yes l will marry you, yes yes yes l love you Connor" she said hugged me tightly.

"Thanks Izzy, l thought you were gonna reject me but l want to make you mine as soon as possible, thank you Daniella."

"I love you Connor."

  "I love you too, thanks for giving us a chance,l will forever cherish you Daniella.

What the hell!"

"My goodness! Daniella is your sister? Your twin sister?"

"This is unbelievable, you guys don't look alike except for today when she wore a blonde wig she looked a little bit like you."

   "So you mean you, Daniella and Connor are siblings?"

"No we are not."

   "You are not?"

How did you find out?

  "A few Weeks ago, l caught a maid adding some kind of substance to my meal."

  "I was furious and confronted her and she told me she was following my mom's instructions."

   "I collected the substance from her and told her not to let mom know l discovered it and told her to stop adding the substance in my food."

   "I took it to doctor Ben and he told me it was a d**g that suppresses ones memories and if being used for a long time can make you forget all the memories you lost."

  "You lost your memories?"

"Yes doctor Ben said so, besides that will be the only reason for them to be giving me the drug."

  "He told me have been using it for a long time so the possibility of getting back those memories are slim."

"And he asked me about my twin sister and l told me , l am an only child and he said my mom used to bring the both of us to his hospital for check up and l was surprised and he found some the records and gave them to me."

   "He asked me if l had my name tattooed on my shoulder and l was shocked."

  "Only few people knew of the tattoo on my shoulder."

  "How did you know about this?" I asked him and he said he have seen it those times mom used to bring my twin sister and l for check up."

"At of curiosity l asked him if my so called twin sister has the same tattoo and he said yes."

  "Do you remember the name of my twin you are talking about?" I asked him.

  "Shelly, that's her name"he said.

"Shelly" that's the same name tattooed on Daniella's shoulder.

  "My goodness!".

"That's it Barbara remember you once told me, you saw a tattoo on her shoulder and that proved my suspicions.

I knew she and Connor will be going on a date.

  And l knew Connor sent Della to give her a make over.

   So l told her to please help me with a strand of Daniella's hair to see if her DNA matches with mine.

  And she brought it.

And l found out she is really my sister.

    How could they do this to us.

I can't believe l plotted against my sister."

"It's okay Brielle, it's a good thing you stopped before anything bad could happen."

I started to investigate my mother.

  Anytime she was away l will go through her stuff.

And just few days ago l saw a signed contract.

And the contract was between mom and Mrs Braxton.

   And l read everything and took some shot on my phone.

   According to that contract , l think they exchanged babies and those children happened to be l,Connor and Daniella.

And if the contract was breached from either party it's death penalty.

What?

So this means one thing, Connor is not a Braxton but a Newton and you are a Braxton Brielle.

"Yes that's it but to be honest Brielle this whole thing is quite confusing, the more l listen it the more confusing it gets."

   "Am confused as well,

    Why was l and Daniella separated? what's my mom and Mrs Braxton hiding?

what's there main reason behind these things? why will a mother exchange her own children?"

"You should stop calling Mrs Newton your mom, she isn't and doesn't deserve it."

  "And you think is better l call Mrs Braxton mother, over my dead body, there are both devils, l hate them, l hate them."

"Stop crying Brielle,stop crying okay, stop crying and be strong, you just found half of the truth you don't need to break down you have to find out everything and reconcile with your sister."

  "I can't Barbara, l can't face her."

"And there is another thing Barbara Connor is older than me, if we were exchanged as babies then why is Connor older?"

  "Sir he escaped."

  "How did it happen, why are you so stupid?"

   "Am sorry sir,am really sorry."

  "It's Felix, isn't he?"

"Yes boss, Mr Connor's personal assistant."

"He managed to get away because he was wearing a Janitor's cloth, he exchanged his clothes with a Janitor which made us to chase the wrong person."

"How interesting, such guts, he hacked into my account and sneaked into my masion and even my office, l can't let it slide and l can't let him deliver what he has either."
