Matilda POV

"I did it ,I killed him," she kept shouting she did it,now am confused if she really did it,Mr Derek smirk "who are you covering for?

The murder must be someone important for you to risk your life for him"

"Believe me I did it,"she kept chanting

"Let say you killed him,how did you do it? where did you stab him?how many times did you stab him?"

"in the chest two times I think" she replied "two times you think,not stab,this is getting interesting,now am wondering who the murder might be" Mr Derek said

Am confuse it seems am the only that doesn't understand what going on,"well you are right about stabbing him in the chest,there also a stab in the stomach,I wonder why you don't know about that," Mr Derek said looking at Mrs Felicia with attention,"that...it..just that I...."

"Let make it easy ,just tell me who murdered your brother?" Mr Derek ask cutting her off," i don't know,I was unconscious I was hit in the head by someone,"she answered

"Did you the person's face? " "Noooo I was hit from behind," "ok that enough thanks for cooperating,and don't worry I won't let you go to jail" Mr Derek said and turn to me

"It time let go." "How do you know she's lying?"I asked "you need to learn,when someone seems anxious or nervous when talking then it a lie

Then some will put blank expression,some will talk about something unrelated then it a lie," "wow!! that it??," "yes that it" he replied and "I think Mrs Felicia is still hiding something like she's protecting someone

I know the answer to that," "really?what it?" I asked "Mr hunter we have to get him to court he knows the answer to that" he replied ."No wonder he's the best, he's sooo good " I thought,"so our next mission is getting Mr hunter to court"

"Leave that to me" I said with a smile,"how would you...... " "If convincing him do not work maybe beating would work," "don't you dare hit him" he replied with anger

"do you really think going to hit him?? how am i suppose to beat a grown up man?" I said laughing "is that suppose to be a joke?" he ask ,"yes " I said laughing,"it not " he said and entered the car "he doesn't even know joke" I scoff.

"I need more evidence I thought,I hope she's able to bring him,even if it through beating I smiled just hope she's able to, what again I hope this counts I said looking at the kitchen knife. "

The Dday

"Are you able to convince him?" "No oo but go on I will meet you in court,with Mr hunter " Matilda replied

"Are you sure you can bring him?" I asked again,"don't worry just go,I will be there," "ok am counting on you," "you can do it " she smiled and left, "Derek you can do this right?" Mr Patrick ask, I look at him and smirk ,"I know you can do it good luck "he said waving "whatever" I thought

"My lord,look at this knife it the knife use to murder the victim"

I said "now look at the accused thumb if she's really the one that stab him she's suppose to have a small wound on her thumb but look at it no wound," "objection my lord"

"Permission granted," the prosecutor stood up and said "my lord what if there is an accomplice who knows maybe she planned it all along cause from what I know there's an insurance with Mr Desmond maybe that why she planned to kill him"

"When will Matilda be here??? " I thought and the court door open and here come Matilda and Mr hunter

"it time I thought my lord I have a witness," "ok he can come up," "Mr hunter," as soon as Mrs Felicia saw him

she seems surprise and anxious "I know he knows something" I thought "Mr hunter where were you on July 13 3am?" "at ho...me in ....my bal...cony..to be...precise.." he said strutting,"do you see anything unusual?yes..ss that...day.."

Flash Back

"Brother don't do this I love him," "love him? You love that crazy bastard,that drunkard that hits you

I will make sure you divorce him," "please brother I love I can't divorce him not now please"

"But if he hits you again I won't take it lightly," "ok brother just trust me," "but am afraid what if..."

"Come on brother it ok," "so this is where you are?" Mr Jasper Mrs Felicia husband said banging in

"What the hell are you doing here? what are looking for?" that came from Desmond "I came for you Felicia,let go home" Mr Jasper said staggering,"wasted he's wasted

You are going nowhere with that drunkard," "brother please let me go with him am ok," "noo you are going nowhere with him,brother it.... "

"I said let go" Mr jasper said raising his hand but Mr Desmond held him "what do you think you are doing? You want to hit her right here in front of me

"Brother you heard him he won't hurt me ," "what the hell is wrong with you? He tried to hurt you just now," "brother it a misunderstanding
