I Was Accused Of Murder
When Brigitta was done at work, she drove straight to her father’s house. On parking at the garage, she sighed very sadly. She remembered how her father had turned a blind eye to the numerous torture she received from her stepmother. Sometimes when her stepmother maltreats her, she screams her father’s name for help but he just ignores her.
She had watched him shower all affections on her stepsister whereas, she had only endured hatred. Then she walked inside the house with dignity.
Her father soon appeared with a smile all over his face, “Brigitta, oh! How much I’ve missed you?”
Brigitta wasn’t move by such pretense, so she asked, “can I sit?”
“Sure… sure my daughter.”
After Brigitta had sat, the man also sit. “Brigitta, it’s been a long time. You have really added weight.”
“Why am I here?” She asked. She wasn’t here to have jokes. She checked her wristwatch and said, “cause I must attend to my kids at home.”
“Firstly, let me congratulate you for being a wife of Ragnar Marshall.” The man smiled, “who would have thought that the paralyzed last son of the Wigglesworth’s family that we forced you to marry in place of your sister would have become the great Mr. Ubba that everyone fears and adore.”
Although her father was expecting a response for her, she just kept quiet.
Her father, Mr. Langbrók hummed and said, “well. I can also see that your grandmother is Hale and hearty now. All things seems to be working in your favor, my dear child.”
“Sir, you still haven’t stated what you want?” She knew her father doesn’t like her, all these acts were just a pretense.
“Your bestfriend, Cassie…”
“Ex bestfriend,” she quickly corrected before he would continue with whatever he has to say.
“Well, your ex bestfriend, Cassie is now the mistress of Ragnar Marshall but that is not what her family and my family wants, we want you to divorce Ragnar Marshall and let her become the wife. But if Ragnar Marshall means so much to you, you may still occupy the position of a mistress.”
She frowned, “you are even supporting Cassie over me? It has gotten that worse. Are you even my father?”
“Of course I am. And as your father, I know what is best for you, Ragnar Marshall isn’t the man for you. I can arrange another man for you though should you find it difficult to find a man.”
“What is Cassie offering you? Is it money? Or is it her pussy? Cause why in the world will you be telling me to leave my husband for a bitch that fucked my ex husband in the past?”
“I know that still hurts but you must come over it. Cassie may not be my daughter but her family is everything to me. You must do as I say, Brigitta.”
Brigitta smirked, she knew her father was just hiding something. Cassie must have offered him something huge just to make him convince her to leave Ragnar. First, they pushed her to marry Ragnar thinking he was paralyzed now they want her to path ways with him now they know of his true identity.
Brigitta stood angrily and said, “I confirm today that you are not my father. Don’t ever refer to yourself as my father now and in the future. I’m married to Ragnar Marshall for life and there is nothing you or anyone can do about it.”
Langbrók stood too and said, “well, I’m not sure you want to have a conflict with me. It won’t end well.”
She looked at the man with a face full of disgust and walked out of the building. When she was about to reach her car, she saw steps running towards her so she turned at once to see whom the person is but before she could see the person, she felt something hit her head and she lost consciousness at once.
By the time she opened her eyes, she saw herself inside the car but what stunned her the most was that she was handcuffed. She looked to the left and saw a police officer beside her , when she looked to the right, she saw another police officer.
How? What has she done? She soon realized that she was in a police van.
She didn’t however say a word until the car parked then she was taken out of the car. After she had entered the station, she had to ask, “what’s my offense?”
“You have been accused for the murder of your grandmother?”Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
“What are you talking about?” She was confused. How did she become a murderer? Plus the last time she checked, her grandmother was still alive.
“Mrs. Brigitta, you were caught laying with a knife in your hand beside the deadbody of your grandmother, and your grandmother died of ruthless stabbing.”
Brigitta wondered if she was dreaming. The last thing she remembered was that she was heading out of her father’s house. In a jiffy, she was taken to the cell. “You will be allowed to contact anyone you wish to contact tomorrow.” An officer said and walked away.
When it was the following day, Brigitta was allowed to call just one person and her phone must be on loudspeaker. She could have called a lawyer but she didn’t even have any, the only person she can call was Ragnar Marshall but she wasn’t sure if he would answer it.
Nonetheless, she called his line and to her surprise, he answered the call, “the nanny called me this morning that your children were longing to see you but that you have been absent. Did I not tell you to inform me about your movement?” That was Ragnar Marshall speaking.
“I have been arrested, sir.” She broke the sad news to him.
“Arrested for what?”
“I was accused for the murder of my grandmother but I’ve done nothing of such.” She said sincerely.
“Name of the police station?”
She mentioned the name of the police station and the call came to an end at once. Afterwards, she was returned to her cell.
