He angrily placed a call across to Donna and once she answered, he spoke angrily, "Donna, how dare
you make me embarrass myself?"
Donna smirked, "I'm not so foolish to tell you the truth. I just want to see how you will react. The truth is,
it's not the drink that is poisoned, it's the apple. And I won't be needing you anymore, don't worry. I'm
done with you."
"And my mom?" He asked.
"Your mom is in her house already," Donna said and hung the call up.
Coleen immediately sped over to where a powerbike is and drove it to his quaters. From there, he got
inside his car and drove to his house. Seeing his sick mom, he couldn't help the tears that rushed down
his cheek.
"Mama..." he called happily.
"Coleen..." Nanny Tammy raised her two hands up and Coleen leaned and hugged her. She had been
laid gently on the bed.
"I was so sad when I couldn't find you anymore, were you hurt by those men who took you?" Coleen
asked his mom pitifully.
"What greater pain can they cause a sick woman? They didn't touch me," Nanny Tammy said and
added, "I think they kidnapped me to be able to get to you. Did you offend some powerful people?"
Coleen sat on the edge of the bed and held his mom's arm ," don't worry, mama. I have it all under
control now. No one will take you away again. Plus I'll employ two security men to be guarding this
place from today."
Nanny Tammy simply nodded and sighed.
Whereas, at the party, the Grandwar kings were gisting and having fun, they were drinking and eating.
Katherine ate a lot of beautiful food on the table except apple and that's because she didn't like taking
apple.
About fortyy minutes into the party, the Grandwar kings started complaining of stomach ache.
Katherine became disturbed. It even got more intense when they started falling to the floor, clutching
their stomach hard in pain and groaning in pain.
Katherine sent for the ambulance at once and the nine Grandwar kings were taken away. That was
how her promotion party ended. How come all the Grandwar kings had stomach ache and she didn't?
She ate most of the things they ate too.
About two hours later, Katherine was summoned to the grandwar master's building. The Grandwar
masters were old men who had fought for the country in their youthful days and instead of retiring,
decided to be useful for the military still. These set of people had signed to live the rest of their life
serving their country as military men..
In the grandwar master's building, there was mother majestic presence present there. He was Derrick.
So they were six seated in the large and Beautifully decorated living room of the Grandwar masters.
Katherine was extremely nervous at the entrance. Samantha had escorted her to the entrance of the
Grandwar master's building.
"Samantha, I'm scared." Katherine confessed how she was feeling to her.
"You don't have to. I'll be waiting outside for you," Samantha said.
Katherine nodded and knocked on the door. The door opened by itself, apparently, it was a digital door
that uses remote control.
Katherine walked in and saluted everyone in the room. She was surprised that the god of war was
present here too.
"General Katherine," one of the Grandwar masters began in a cold tone, "you ate and drank with the
Grandwar kings but they were all poisoned except you. Can you explain that?"
"Poisoned? I have no idea that they were poisoned. I ate everything they ate, I should be poisoned too
but nothing happened to me," she said innocently. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
"That's because amidst all the food and drinks, it was the apple that was poisoned. We observed that
you ate everything on the table except apple. Can you explain that?" The same Grandwar master
questioned her.
"Oh my days! I didn't eat the apple only because I didn't like it," Katherine said. The only person who
knows she doesn't like apple was Donna. As ex bestfriends, they knew eachother's likes and dislikes.
"Because you didn't like it? That doesn't sound like a reasonable excuse, General Katherine." The
second Grandwar master said. He added, "you are the primary suspect here. General Katherine, there
had been many conspiracies around you. If we are to summon you before everyone again, the officers
would start rebelling cause you should have been killed a long time ago yet you kept getting spared but
you kept commiting different offences."
Katherine knew and understood that she had been set up again. She looked at Derrick who sat quietly,
he must be tired of her troubles. He had helped her several times but she kept getting into trouble.
After a few seconds of silence, the third Grandwar master spoke, "but you are not the only suspect
here. Your friend, Coleen is a suspect too. He had said the drink was poisoned, when asked, he
claimed he sensed it but that wasn't a
