no! I don't think so. Am sure it bola's ex and his dad that committed the crime, remember he vowed to destroy any obstacle hindering them from reaching to their political dreams, my opinion though.

CHAPTER TWENTY SEVEN

The whole city woke up to the news of Chief Olatunbosun's death, it occupied every newspaper headline and TV breaking report. By the last night when it was first reported, it was unconfirmed because the media houses had only been hinted by a source who lived in the mansion but the news was confirmed that morning from several sources especially the police who testified that the Chief was shot by his daughter during an argument, he died instantly. The daughter who also shot herself did not die but was under intensive care in the hospital. The CID team was currently concluding their investigation based on the recorded conversation they found on Bola's phone.

Bode did not believe his eyes when he first red the breaking news on Nairaland's front page, an online forum for citizens of the country, he only believed after he heard the same on the TV and radio.

He wondered why Bola had to shoot the father, what went wrong? Their deal was only to make him admit to killing Frank and provide the recording for police investigations.

Just the last night, he had been thinking of calling Bola to stop the move after thinking deeply about the plan. He concluded that am ordinary phone recording would not be enough to implicate the Chief, it might even complicate the matter. But now that the conversation recorded had been found by the police in the Chief's house and it was already confirmed that it was a recorded conversation between the man and his daughter, the information recorded might just be useful.

He tucked his shirt properly and put on the suit jacket and headed straight for work, hoping to continue his private investigation when he resumes from work.

Dennis could not concentrate on his job, there were lots of untouched files and unread emails that he was supposed to attend to bi couldn't because he lacked the zeal to do anything that morning. He was even forced by his mother to come to work that morning.

Hr remembered how Helen sent him out angrily of her office the day before after he tried to argue the test result with them.

"Wow! So Amarachi actually used the knife on the deceased" Helen exclaimed, reacting to the announcement of the result made by Dele. "I can't believe I was actually feeling sympathy for criminals"

"You see, that's why it looks like I'm cold hearted sometimes" Uche joined, "with their pity faces when being interrogated, one would think they are innocent not knowing we are dealing with hardened criminals who have only mastered the art of feigning ignorance"

"You're right Uche, I blame myself for not following what you said, you said we already had enough evidence and we should proceed to court but I gave them a benefit of doubt"

"No, I don't think you should blame yourself, those criminals acted well, they could have convinced the judge that they were innocent with their brilliant lies and faces. The judge would have still sent us to go and make the test"

"You guys should shut up! " Dennis who had been quiet since the announcement, suddenly shouted. "I know Amarachi cannot kill anyone, I believe that guy Kelvin planted that knife in her room"

"Oh! What makes you say so mister?" Helen asked calmly using hand signals to make Uche who was reading to vent his anger on Dennis calm.

"You see, Kelvin drugged Amarachi to sleep with her and he made access to the house that day without anyone's knowledge, it is possible that he had returned to the house after the murder and kept the knife there"

"Oh God!" Uche was the first to reply, shaking his head slowly in contempt. "Do you realize how dull what you just said is? You say Kelvin planted the knife there even when Amarachi already admitted to be the one who dropped the knife there?"

"But..."

"It's okay Mr Dennis, it looks like you don't have any relevant information to give us, so I'll ask that you leave now" Helen said, looking straight at him. "What I will advise you do now is get a good lawyer and prepare well for the court trail"

"But..."

"Shhh... Mr" she said placing a finger on her lips to shut him up. "Just leave now, if you have anything to prove, do that in the court"

"I just..."

"Get out Mr " Helen cut in, this time more authoritatively.

He had no option than to leave the place, he drove home quietly in confusion. He believed that Amarachi would not lie to him and that she was saying the truth when she said she didn't use the knife to kill anyone, what he couldn't understand was how the knife was the same used in the murder.

After thinking more deeply, he had to agree with Uche that his suggestion was really foolish after Amarachi had attested to the fact that she kept the knife inside the room.

A loud bang on the table jolted Dennis back to reality, there was the Chairman standing at the other side of the table.

"Welcome sir" he greeted.

"What's wrong with you Dennis? I knocked on your door several times and you didn't answer"

"I'm sorry sir"

"What's the matter with you?"

"Nothing sir"

"Are you sure nothing is wrong with you?"

"Yes sir"

"Then why are you here?"

"Here?" Dennis looked puzzled by the question. He asked himself where else was he supposed to be.

"Yes, weren't you told that you were supposed to be in a meeting this morning?"

"Oh!" He opened his mouth in shock, suddenly remembering that he was reminded of the meeting by his secretary that morning as he walked into the office and had been sent several reminders afterwards.

Sweat oozed out and trickled down his face as he realized that he wasn't prepared for the meeting. He started scattering his table looking for unknown files and reports.

"Son" the Chairman called calmly as he watched him in awe. "Are you alright?"

"Yes sir" Dennis replied, still scattering the table in a fruitless search.

"But you're not prepared for this meeting"

"I am sir"

"No, you're not" the man said and sat down in the visitor's seat. He held Dennis hand, stopping him from scattering the table.
"Tell me son, what's the matter? I can see you're distressed" he said to Dennis like a father, which Dennis never had. "I could have sent someone else to come and get you but I decided to come here myself because I already noticed you had something troubling you from our previous meeting this week. Tell me, is it Amarachi"

"Yes" he replied sadly, tears almost dropping off his eyes.

"You're in love with her?"

"Yes, I am and I don't think I can live without her. But now she might be sentenced to prison for something she knows nothing about"

"So, what are you doing to help her out?"

"I'm trying my best sir, I've gotten a lawyer and I'm trying to help the police with their investigation but things aren't working out, the way it is now, she might be found guilty by the court"

"Alright boy, do everything you can do to help her if you really trust her. This is your opportunity to stand by her"

"Yes, I will"

"Good, so you can take a week off to rest and strategize. I will delegate someone to take care of the jobs we have"

"Huh?" Dennis replied, not believing what he heard

"Yes boy" , the chairman replied, patting him on the shoulder.

"But remember you have to start work effectively whenever you resume", the chairman concluded and left the office.

Dennis arranged everything on his table properly, he quickly shut down the system and packed some files into his bag. After making sure the place was neat, he picked his bag and walked outside the office.

"Good evening ma" Bode greeted Helen as he sat into the visitor's chair in her office.

"Good evening Mr Bode, how was your day?" She asked, offering an handshake to him.

"Fine ma, yours?"

"Fine too. Well, you can stop the ma. My name is Helen, call me Helen"

"Okay Helen" he smiled. "The news of Chief Olatunbosun's death was all over town this morning"

"Yeah, it's a pity. No one ever thought a mighty man would fall like that"

"That's true, the most astonishing thing is that he was shot by his daughter"

"No, it was accidental" Helen explained. "Based on our investigation and evidence of the phone recording made available, we discovered that the gun went off in a struggle for it between the father and daughter"

"Oh! So she didn't shoot him as the news reports?"

"No, she didn't. The gun went off in a struggle and when she discovered that her father had breathed his last, she decided to end her life too"

"But I heard she didn't die"

"Yes, but she's still very unconscious in the hospital"

"Okay" he said and thought for a moment before he continued again. "Please ma, ... Sorry Helen. Do we have enough information to serve as evidence that the Chief killed Frank?"

"No, Bode. I'm sorry, the phone recording only proves that the Chief is innocent" Helen replied sadly. "Rather we have proof that Amarachi and her accomplice carried out the murder and that accomplice is very likely to be your friend Kelvin except she tells us otherwise"

"What proof is that?"

"The knife found in Amarachi's room has been proven to be the one used for the murder"

"No, that can't be true"

"It is very true, we've not had time to interrogate Amarachi again because of this Chief's case but I'm sure she wouldn't be able to deny anymore and even if she does, one thing is sure. We're heading to the court very soon"

"But... " he was saying when Helen's phone rang.

"Please excuse me" she said as she checked the caller and answered the call. "Oh! Ok, we'll be there as soon as possible"

She ended the call and dialed another number. "Uche, she's conscious now. Let's meet at the Etyle City Hospital"

"Bola is awake?" Bode asked with his eyes widely opened.

"Yes and I'll have to go there now" She said, clearing her table.

"I'll follow you"

"No, I'm sorry. You can't"

"Please, you have to allow me" Bode pleaded.

"No, I'm sorry. This CID team is an efficient one, you have to leave us to do our investigation"

"I just need to see her and probably ask a few questions"

"I'm sorry, No. You would not be allowed to see her"

"Can't you do anything about it?"

"No please" she took her car keys and stood up from the seat. Her phone rang again.

"Yes doctor" she answered the call.

"Ehen... Okay... No problem" She replied and looked at Bode's face as if the caller had asked of him.

"Alright, lets go" she said to Bode

"Let's go to the hospital?"

"Yes, the doctor said Bola had demanded to see you"
