(oh my God, h...he tried to kill him?. Victor is such a devil I would say that again and again)

The ambulance stop at Hospital in the capital. The door burst open and the stretcher in which luke lay on was pulled out.
"What's the condition"
"A reckless driver accident. He's barely breathing as he has lost a lot of blood" the tending nurse replied.
"What's his name?"
"Luke" the nurse replied
The stretcher was wheeled into the ICU.
............,....
An hour after the accident everyone was still surprised, shocked as to how a perceived armed robbery or an accident could occur at the office vicinity.
"Ahem" victor cleared his throat.
All staffs quickly maintained their position.
"I know you all must be shocked but I want you to remain calm as before so as not to jeopardize any work of yours. I believe the man has been taken to the Hospital and well taken care of. I would not rest until that reckless driver is found and arrested because if not that man it could be anyone from this company"
Some staffs gasped
"Like I said, I want you to remain calm and resume your work"
All the staffs quickly went back to their seats after victor went back to his office but the only person who was unfazed by that speech was Alex.
..................
"Good evening Nurse....Diara" Alex quickly picked the nurses' name from her name tag.
"Good evening how may I help you?"
"Uhmm.This afternoon a man was brought here on the account of an accident"
"A man? Many people are brought here on an account of an accident. Can you please be more specific by giving the name?"
"Uhmmmm. His name is Luke....Luke Philips"
"Luke Philips...and who are you to the man?" The nurse asked as she scanned through the patients log book
"I...I am an acquaintance. A friend to be specific"
"Okay.Luke Philips. None of his family members are here as we still trying to contact whoever knows him. Since you are here, I would like to know your name"
"I am Sarah. Sarah will" Alex lied
"Sarah will" the nurse wrote down the name. "Age?"
"27 years old"
"Alright sarah, I am sorry to say but Luke Philips has been transfer-"
"Nurse Diara, the Doc Jude would like to see you"
"But-"
"Now!"
"I am sorry Sarah, but I need to respond to this. I will hand over to her" Diara should dropped the pen as she left. The woman who called on her resumed Diara's position.
"I am sorry for that. I am nurse Sheila and you are?"
"Uhmm Do not worry. Nurse Diara has attended to me. I would be taking my leave now"
Something was off.
"Boss she just left the Hospital"
"Keep a watch on her" the person on the other end of the phone answered.
"Alexa" Jason called over from his car
"Oh thank God you are here. Let's go"

"Alexa I can't believe you are gradually getting yourself into trouble. What is your deal with the man that testified against you?"
"But-"
"Ever since you came out of there you have changed. Alexa I am worried about you. First it was your Dad's Company now this?" Jason pinched his temples.
"I am sorry if I got you worried but I can't just sit by and watch people get killed by that murderer. Jason you have to trust me, that man is a devil and I am willing to rip off his face."
Jason sighs "Alexa please just leave this to the police"
"You know I won't do that. The police can't be trusted. Who knows, Victor may have paid them off just like he did with Luke"
"Alexa I am really worried about you, your mum and your aunt."
"Jason, trust me I can take care of myself"
"Chat with you later" Alex got off Jason's car.
" I will call you once I get home and please whenever you feel something is off, don't hesitate to call me"
"Okay. Good night"
Jason watched as Alex got into the house before he ignited the engine and drove off.

Thick smoke filled Loren's office as he pulled one long puff before he pushed his tobacco butt into the ash tray
"Hmm. Seems like the game is getting more interesting. Well-done" he smirked
