Has it gotten to this? The police barge into our house as if we are a hardened criminal I picked a knife from the table and raise it up.
“I prefer to die than to go to jail!!” I said but as I was about to stab myself I began hear some commotion going on in the living room.
“Move right now before I blow your head!!” I heard the police said.
I put down the knife and went to check what was going. To my surprise the police men were actually pointing their guns to Raymond. My husband was standing at the stairs without saying anything.
“Officers what’s going on here?” I asked
“This man here is a notorious criminal he has been known for his blackmailing of people with alongside with his accomplice” he said and they pushed Clara in.
I opened my mouth in disbelief when I saw handcuffs in her hand she has been beaten seriously.

“And so what!! It is your fault you were the one that caused everything!!” She said
“How am I the one that cause it?” I asked as tears were flowing down my face.
“Since you have met George you won’t stop telling me about what he did and bought for you which is making to feel some how so I and Raymond decided to Blackmail you so we can extort some money from you so that it will teach you a lesson that it is not everything you can be saying to a friend but you are lucky that your husband is a detective and recognize Raymond if not….” she said and the police men took them away.
“Madam don’t worry we will help you recover all the money they have collected from you” one of the police said.
