Peter's POV Frank and I didn't go to the gym, instead we hanged around, somewhere cool and quiet. I told him all the problems I was facing at home but he kept on saying everything will be fine. When I was calm at least, we talked about random stuffs, he wouldn't even stop telling me about his first date with Francisca. I wasn't jealous but I wished everything was fine between Bella and I..we too would have had a first date, gone on an outing, shared our first kiss; we would be happy by now but reverse was the case. It was getting late, I stay out forever just because i'm having issues with my mom. I do not have my own apartment yet and besides, I left Bella at home.

She promised not to change the date this time around" My mom said. "What a relief." I responded. "Okay so, how far have you gone with the investigation?" I asked, I was done eating after all. "Pretty much far, at least we have made some findings" My mom said. "Something new? What is it?" "I have come to figure out that your father used to work somewhere at Cenway?" My mom resumed. "Oh really. We only knew it was very far from home, I never knew it was as far as Cenway" I remarked. "You father was a secretive but lovey man. I wouldn't have hid this away from us, if only he had known that he would die soon" My mom mumbled. "He wanted to surprise us remember? Let's not blame him. He is the best Dad in the whole world" I said and my mom smiled a bit."He migh

Bella's POV I returned to the Benson's place the next morning. Last night, I couldn't sleep well because I was worried about who the culprit might be. Sooner or later, my mom, Aunt Flora and the assistant cop will be at The Benson's place to interrogate them too. This will cause alot Mrs Benson will definitely fire me because we are indirectly trying to accuse her and this will lower the chance of Peter and I ending up together. Infact, Mrs Benson wouldn't want to have anything to do with my family anymore. My mom doesn't mind anyways; Finding who killed Dad is what's at the uppermost part of her mind regardless of whoever the killer turns out to be. I guess I'm only being concerned and scared that it shouldn't turn out to be our loved one.

"Yeah" instead of my mom, the man responded. "Who are you please?" Mr Benson asked. The man brought out his ID card and showed it to their faces. "A retired police officer. My fellow police offers will take over from wherever I have stopped." He said, they didn't understand him though. "Why are you here?" "Ahem! " My mom spoke. "I'm sorry Mr and Mrs Benson, i'm not tryna disrespect you but..." She paused. " I really have to do this. I was the one who brought in the cop" My mom told them. "What? Why??" "Cop?" The Bensons exclaimed. Why do I feel like they all seemed suspicious now? God! "Please I'm not asking for anything much but total cooperate okay?" The police offer resumed. Mrs Benson looked at me suspiciously. "Wait! Does this have to do with yo

Peter's POV My parents and Monica's parents are the prime suspect for Bella's father's death? At first I was glad, haven realized that My parents and Bella's late father were once acquainted. I thought fate was trying to bring Bella and I together but no, it doesn't have to be this way and I don't ever think that my parents are responsible for her father's death. Nah! They are not evil besides for what reason will they murder someone? Like I have overheard, Mr Daves was their bossom friend, my mom often talks about him and Dad on the other hand can't even hurt a fly. He is easygoing. So no, my parents definitely didn't kill Bella's parent. What about Monica's parents? Gosh! I don't know. I looked at Bella, who moved away from me immediately after the cop announced my parents are suspect of her father's death. Oh God! Don't let it be. "What?

Bella's POV "You can still stay here Bella" Mrs Benson said "Err.. I do not think so. It's not okay not after what we have done" My mom said. "Actually, you did what was right. And we were only making a fuss about it" Mrs Benson said; "I mean you were investigating your husband's death and we were only being interrogated, so it's okay. I'm sending Bella away" She said. I couldn't help but to smile. I looked at my mom's face, I could see that she was glad too. This maid job has been so helpful to us. "Again, I'm sorry about Mr Daves death. May his gentle soul rest in peace. He was a very good man, I guess this is my little way of making it up to him. I promise you Mrs Daves, I'll take good care of your daughter Bella" Mrs Benson added. I couldn't believe my ears as I bowed my head in a respect. "Thank you so much Mrs Benson. I really really appreciate" My mom thanked her. "Go ahead, continue with the investigation.

Peter's POV "Hey dear" I heard my mom whispering, then she knocked on the door. "Go away" I yelled at her. "Please dear, let's talk" My mom said. "Once again, I am sick and tired of you. I'm fed up of your nagging. Just leave me alone!" I continued to yell at all. But she pushed the door and came inside instead. I stood up and confronted her. "Don't even think that you'ld succeed in convincing me or bringing Monica and I together. Instead, I'll rather die single. I won't be in a relationship. Not with Monica or the girl I love.." I paused.. "Bella". I said. "Uhmmn.. I'm not here to cause any trouble again" My mom said. I smirked. "I'm serious Peter.. I.." I interrupted her. "Good you know you've been causing troubles" I snugged. "Actually, it felt like I was being controlled. I didn't mean to be a burden to you. I don't know what happened to me, but one think I know is that after I have had a conversation with Mrs Withney, Monica's mom, th

Another day, Mrs Daves and her assistant; the police officer went to the Withney's place according to the directions the company has given them. Luckily for them Mrs Withney was around, so she generously let them in without knowing who they were yet. This time, her husband, Mr Withney was not at home. Monica was at home too, she was just planning to go to The Benson's place, thinking Mrs Benson will support her as usual and she might still get a chance from Peter if she disturbs the hell outta him. "Please have a seat" Mrs Withney offered them after they had entered. "Mommy, who are they?" Monica asked her mom.. bossy and rudely. "Who are you?" Mrs Withney turned to the unknown visitors. The cop brought out his card then he introduced himself, "I'm a retired police officer but being retired doesn't mean I have no right to investigate cases or interrogate people." He said. "Excuse me!" Monica remarked. "So what's a police officer doing here? I guess you ar

"His transfers, position and promotion was given to you. Mrs Withney, are you sure that you are not involved in his death?" The man asked in an authoritative tone and he looked really serious. "What??" Monica and her mom exclaimed at the same time. "How dare you?!" Monica yelled at the policeman."Are these your reasons why you think I must have killed that poor innocent man?" Mrs Withney asked the policeman. "Maybe. Maybe it was someone you know, maybe it was your husband or maybe it was even you" The cop answered her. "Are you trying to accuse me right now Mr policeman?" Monica's mom asked. " It's not an accusation " Bella's mom muttered. "Okay. I didn't kill the man" Mrs Withney said directly. "Monica" Monica was shocked that the policeman called her name. "Your name is Monica right?" "Why? So you could formulate rubbish and say I killed a man I don't even know?" She ran her mouth."No, so you could tell me what you think or what you suspect rather? Ha

Monica's POV "Mom! What did you just do? What did you just say to the policeman?!" Monica furiously yelled at her mother immediately after Bella's mom and the policeman were out of their house and sights. "I didn't do anything wrong Monica. So why are you making a fuss about it?" Her mother replied sharply. "I see you haven't realized the effort of what you have just done. You just accused Mr Benson for what he didn't do" I told her. Since she acted like she didn't understand what I was trying to say. "No I didn't. You are getting me all wrong Monica. I only gave them my opinion, I didn't directly point fingers at them" My mom said. "You did, I tried to stop you but you went ahead and mentioned his name. Mr Benson. That innocent man. Now they will go to his place again to arrest him. Oh jeeezz geez mom!" I screamed frustratedly. I thought she was on my side for Peter to be mine, why this then? "Whatever. One thing I believe is that if he eventually turns out in
