The Lost heir of somewhere unknown

Chapter 51: Chapter 51 Failed Attempt



somewhere across the world

"Boss, the head of the police force is here in the old man's study. I heard someone say that they found a tooth or something." The boss growls deep in his throat before rising from his chair. "Stay here, I'll find out more." He said storming from the office.

A few minutes later, the boss came rushing back in, followed by his other two accomplices. "You three have to leave now, " he said, opening his safe and grabbing some money. I told that idiot to give that furnace a good cleaning, so how the hell did someone find a tooth?" the boss asked furiously.

"I'll have his fucking head for this, now as it turns out, that tooth belongs to the old man's wife, now the head of the police force has organized a special tasks force to investigate this murder, they will be here any minute. They will be questioning everyone in this palace and everyone will be subjected to a polygraph, so you three can't be here when they get here." The boss points out handing each of them a wad of cash.

"Don't pack anything, just grab your papers and go as far away from this place as you can get, I'll contact you when the coast is clear." "But Boss, how do they know that it was a murder?" One asks. The boss growls and glares at the man coldly.

"Well, it is not as if she crawled into a blazing furnace of her own free will, you fucking idiot." The boss snaps. "What about you Boss?" another asks. "I can take care of myself, now go quickly, take the secret passage." The boss orders and the three men run from the office.

Back in Jamaica

Liah sighed heavily as she prepared herself to leave work, back in the past she used to love it when David dropped her off at work and came back for her in the evening. That showed her that he loved and cared for her, that she was important to him. Things were so good between them back then, she really wanted to spend the rest of her life with him, so why did her feelings towards him change?"

Why did she feel burdened whenever he asked her to spend time with him and work on their relationship? And why did it irritate her now whenever he showed up at her house to drive her to work and when he returned for her? And whenever he would insist on staying for dinner?

Ugh, and why was she asking herself these pointless questions when she already knew the answer? Somewhere along taking care of Moses, she had fallen in love with him. Now all she could think of was Moses, she wanted to be close to him at all times but she couldn't be, not when David or her family was around. She thought with a frustrated sigh as she waved down a taxi.

Not to mention that every time David came over to her house it made Moses more conflicted about their relationship. She realized that this morning when he asked her that question, she also noticed how hesitant he was at times to come near her, she had to do something to fix that problem and she needed to do it quickly.

But wait, was his question this morning an answer to her question about how he felt about her? Hmm, wait, was his question based on jealously? Was he jealous? Well if he was, that would mean he had strong feelings for her, right? She asks herself. Maybe, but she still needed to hear him say it. She thought biting her lips.

Having David around also made her wonder what exactly Moses thought about her. One minute she was going down on him and the next she was leaving the house with David, that has to stop. The other thing was that this sexy hunk of a man was literally confined to her house but still, she couldn't indulge in her sexual fantasies with him, mainly because of her sister, she also had to find a way around that and quickly before she went sexually insane. She thought stepping out of the taxi and paying the driver.

On entering her house she saw no one, so without even thinking she dropped her bags on a chair and headed towards Moses's door. She slowly opens it and then stops dead in her tracks, her fingers folding into fists, because in front of her was her sister and Moses sitting on the floor facing each other. Moses had his headphones over his ears, his eyes were closed and Zoey had both his hands in hers.

"What are you doing? "Liah demands marching over to them. "Shh," Zoey snaps closing her eyes and taking deep breaths. "Don't shush me, what the hell are you doing?" Liah asks through clenched teeth. "I'm trying to help him remember who he is," Zoey whispers. "You're so clueless, Moses getting his memory back isn't a game Zoey. How is this supposed to help." Liah snaps pulling Zoey's hands from his.

"What's your problem?" Zoey hissed as Michael slowly opened his eyes but said nothing. "Moses, are you alright?" Liah asks bending down beside him, his only answer is a slow nod.

"Did you remember anything?" Zoey asks. "Of course, he didn't...." "A black panther," Michael said cutting Liah's snorts short. "What? You mean it actually worked?" Liah asks in shock. "Yes it did and he probably would've remembered more if you hadn't rudely interrupted us," Zoey said disapprovingly. She then turns to Michael. "Why do you think you remember a black panther?" She asks.

"Not sure," He said getting up and walking towards the table that contains two bottles of water. "Maybe you own one." Zoey giggles. "Quite unlikely." He responds. "Or maybe it's your favorite animal," Zoey adds. "Possibly." He nods. "Was that the only thing you remembered?" Liah asks. "Hm-mm," He nods. "What was the animal doing?" Zoey asks. "It was striding gracefully across a lush green lawn."

"How did you feel watching it?" Zoey asks. "Peaceful," He responds. "I'm sorry you didn't remember more," Zoey said glaring at Liah. "So am I, but thank you for trying to help me," he said with another nod, he then turned and walked from the room. "Mama said that you should start dinner," Zoey said before marching away from Liah.

A few minutes after starting dinner Liah saw him heading towards the living room. "um...Moses?" She calls and he walks towards her. "I'm very sorry, I thought she was just fooling around, I didn't know it would actually work." She says without looking at him.

"Why does it offend you whenever she comes close to me?" He asks. "Why? Because I'm jealous." She grumbles. "I mean she gets to spend all this time with you and I can't, it's not fair and there is nothing I can do about it." She said softly. "Your sister is a child, a smart one but a child nonetheless, you have no reason to be jealous of her." He states.

"Actually I do because I'm still not sure of your feelings for me." "Have my actions not conveyed my feelings for you?" He asks. "No, not really, I mean, are you in love with me as I am with you? Or are you just using me to pass the time?" She asks again not looking at him.

"Look at me," He orders and she complies. "I do have strong feelings for you Liah and I would love to spend the rest of my life with you, actually I'm hoping I do get to spend the rest of my life with you." He said firmly. "Then why are you so hesitant? Why are you holding back your feelings?"

"Why? That's why." He said pointing to the Bible on the counter. "For over two months, you fed me with those words, night and day and now every move you make and every word you speak goes against what is in that book." "I already told you..." "That you will handle it, I know, you keep repeating that." He said cutting her sentence short.

"From what you've told me about your God Liah, he doesn't sound like someone that can be handled. I've also been on this Island a few months now and I can honestly say that I fear not one person that I've come up against so far but I get this strong sense of anxiety when I think of what your God is capable of."

"You don't need to worry, nothing is going to happen to you..." "Stop," He said holding up his hand. "Fact is, you're not in a position to say that to me right now, one, your God isn't flesh and blood, which means he can't be seen. Two, he's capable of destroying this entire universe and me before I even get a chance to figure out who I am. Three, I do not want him angry at us because of our actions and Four, that book says that what we are doing is called sin and the reward for sin is what Liah?"

"Death," She said with tears in her eyes. "You went against his word for me, do you still think I've no reason to be hesitant towards you?" "Wait, are you saying that you don't want to be with me anymore?" "That's not what I said." "Then what are you saying, Moses?" He was about to answer when David came barging through the front door. "This conversation isn't over." She said turning her attention back to her cooking.

"Why didn't you wait for me?" He asks angrily. "What was so important here that you couldn't wait a few measly minutes for me to get there?" He demands again. "Oh, she just couldn't wait to get here so she could tell me how clueless I am," Zoey says entering the kitchen.

"Moses was on the verge of regaining some of his memories when she barged in and interrupted us and ruined everything, now we don't know if he will ever get his memories back," Zoey adds. "Him? He was the reason you couldn't wait for me to get there? Seriously Liah, what the hell is going on with you?' David demands storming from the house.

"Fuck, another failed attempt?" Razor growls slamming his fist on his desk. "Sorry Boss, but the police guarding him won't let anyone into the room except his doctor and even he's supervised while attending him." One of his men explains.

"That fucker cannot leave that damn hospital alive." Razor sneers. "We probably have to go to plan B Boss." Bladesuggest. "What the fuck is plan B? Razor demands. "Let them take him to jail, we'll take him out there." "I don't have time for that, I've business in Kingston, the sooner that fucker dies, the sooner I can leave." Razor growls.

"Actually, I have a better plan B, tomorrow night I'll be cutting the power to that fucking hospital and you two have four minutes to get the job done, got that?" "Yes Boss." "Good, now get the fuck out of my sight." Razor growls and the two men hurried from the office.

"Boss," "What?" Razor snaps. "I know how badly you want to kill that asshole but cutting the power to the hospital will endanger many lives." Blade points out. "So, as long as it gets the job done, what the fuck do I care?" "Good point, but he's under heavy police guard right now, so we could cut the power, kill a lot of innocent people and that fucker still might not die." Blade adds.

"Do you have a plan C?" Razor asks. "Actually, yes, you concentrate on organizing everything you'll need for your business in Kingston and leave that fucker to me, I actually have a thousand ways in which I can kill him." "Really?" "Yes Boss," "Alright, you have one week, fail, and I'll fuck you up." "Yes Boss," Blade said nervously as Jermaine entered the office.

"You ask for me, Boss?" "Where exactly in that house did you set up that game?" Razor asks. "In his bedroom Boss." "So why the fuck am I looking at the fucking living room?" Razor demands turning on the camera.

"Shit, he must have moved it." Jermaine says "Which means he knew it wasn't just an ordinary game." Razor growls. "I swear, that fucker is really getting on my very last nerves." He snorts.
