Mr Godwin sat on the side alongside with Cindy and wisdom..they were dressed and were obviously going out.
"Honey please be fast." Mr Godwin said referring to his wife (Mrs Godwin) who was still upstairs in her room and turned his gaze to his wrist watch.
Mrs Godwin on the other hand sat on the bed and dialed a number in her phone and place it on her left ear.
"Hello madam." A thick and scaring male voice said immediately he picked the call.
"Hello zacco, we are about to leave the house now and we are going to pass through third express road, I want you and your guys to block us at the Fourth junction..kill my husband and his son but please don't harm the daughter, Sophia would also be with us." Mrs Godwin said.
"As long as you go give us better pepper (money), that one na small job for me and my guys." Zacco said.
"No problem, you will receive an alert after the job." Mrs Godwin said.
" As you wish madam." Zacco said.
"Thanks, have to go now...they are waiting for me." She said
"Okay bye." Zacco said before she end the call. She called Sophia to know where she was and she told her that she is close to their house, she end the call and went downstairs.
"Sweetheart am so sorry for keeping you waiting." She apologized innocently.
"It okay, we can just start going." Mr Godwin said standing up.
"Erm..honey, a friend of mine is coming and she is going out with us " she said
"Who is this your friend and when is she coming?" Mr Godwin asked.
"She will soon be here." She said.
"Here I am." Sophia said walking into the living room as everybody turned their gaze to her. Cindy and wisdom mood changed instantly.
"Mum, what is the meaning of this?" Wisdom asked angrily.
"Calm down son." Mr Godwin said tapping wisdom on his shoulder.
"Good day sir." Sophia greeted Mr Godwin then eyed Cindy and wisdom before hugging Mrs Godwin.
"Dad, I am not going to use the same car with her." Cindy said pointing at Sophia.
"Me too." Wisdom said.
"Don't bother, she will use my car with me." Mrs Godwin said.
"Is alright, let's get going." Mr Godwin said while they walked out of the living room and went to where their cars were packed. Wisdom, Cindy and Mr Godwin used wisdom's car while Mrs Godwin and Sophia used her car.
As they were driving along the express road.. wisdom, Cindy and their father were gisting when a girl from nowhere suddenly ran into the road, it was obvious she escaped from danger, before wisdom could control the steering, he had already hit the girl with his car...she fell on the ground as blood was coming out of her head.... Wisdom jumped out of the car followed by his father and sister, they rushed to the girl on the ground.
"God, what have I done?!" He said bitterly carrying the girl who has already passed out.
Mrs Godwin and Sophia went to meet them.
" What?..how did it happen?" Mrs Godwin asked confusedly but get no response, wisdom place the girl in the back seat while his sister sat with her, his father joined him in the front.
"We are going to the hospital, are you coming with us??" Mr Godwin asked referring to his wife.
"Yes." She managed to say after a long starred. Wisdom start the car and zoom off. Mrs Godwin hitter her hands on the steering so hard in frustration, she was boiling with anger.
"What do we do now?" Sophia asked breaking the awake slience.
"I don't know, our plan has be ruined by that bastard!" She yelled angrily.
"I suggest we call zacco and inform him about the newest." Sophia said.
"You are right." She concluded and took her phone from her bag, she dialed zacco number and informed him about what happened and when they are going to strake again. After the call, she drove to the hospital..

He walked in and sat on his seat prepared for him, everybody bow their heads and knees down as they greeted him, after everyone has settled down he began.
"As you all know, I am not a king that people messed with not even my fellow kings! A girl from this kingdom came to my palace yesterday and accused me of murder." He said and everybody shouted ("heeeyyyy!!")
"She said I killed her father and late onowu Udemba, so I sent for the priestess who is here with us to come and settle this case, if I am guilty I will be sacrificed to ikuku but if she is guilty, she will be sacrificed to ikuku." He said and turned to the priestess.
"Priestess over to you." He said.
"My people, we all know the consequence of one accusing the king of been a murderer, before we proceed I want kasima to be here." Said the priestess.
"Guards go and bring her here." King Maduka commanded...the guard hurrily went to the palace cell.. moments later they came back without kasima.
"Where is she? King Maduka asked.
"We can't find her, she is not in the palace cell." Ejike said when kasima's mother and sister came in.
"What do you mean by you can't find her? Who released her?!" King Maduka yelled.
"I did." Princess Adaeze said walking forward.
