.... The case was getting though by the day,my wife seems to be the prime suspect, Mrs Williams was a strong woman,she made sure justice was served her husband,she was always at the police station,not wanting my wife to get freed at all, according to her,my wife has been the reason her husband was never home with her and the family, because he was always taking her to different parts of the world...
on one of her visit to the police station,she confronted my wife,I shall make sure you end the rest of your miserable life in jail,you ,you and the likes of you had been the problem in my home,where were you,where were you when my husband was nothing,where were you when we lived from hand to mouth,where were you when I starved to bed so my husband and kids could eat something, where were you when I sacrificed my all to build my home,now that am supposed to be relaxed and enjoying my sweat you and your kinds are busy reaping where you did not sow,to make matters worse,you are the most worthless of your kind,even after getting married,you weren't satisfied with your husband's pleasure stick,that you have to keep coming after my husband day by day,you still went as far as to take his life and make me a widow in my fortiest,one thing am sure of,is the fact that you will pay for this.mrs Williams had said.
Ma,I know I can't apologize for all the pains I caused you with my illicit act with your husband,but I am regrettably sorry,if only I can turn back the hands of time,I am so ashamed to face myself please forgive ma,I am deeply sorry, Beauty said...
You are sorry,you are sorry,can been sorry bring my husband back to life,can been sorry stop my kids from being fatherless in such ages,you haven't seen anything yet,by the time you are in Lagos maximum prison,I bet you will be more story,she said and left...
I looked at my wife in anger and ran after Mrs Williams, excuse me ma,I know what my wife did to you is beyond forgiveness,but please temper justice with mercy,have mercy i said,what kind of a man are you,you still refer to that woman as your wife,she asked.well she's still my wife ma, I said,I see,she is still your wife,you still have someone to call your wife,but I lost my husband,and had become a widow in my fortiest,my children have become fatherless in their young age and you want me temper what...Mr Cyril we shall meet in court.excuse me.she said and walked out on me....
In court?, oh my God,this is serious,it's been 5 days and my wife had emaciated, looking just like a shadow of her real self. The barrister said the police presented an autopsy result which says Mr Williams was strangled to death,but would my wife have the strength to strangle a full grown man in his late 40ties or early fifties,,,,The barrister interrogated everyone in that hotel,but non seems to have a hand in Chief's death.
Soon the case was charged to court,we were all worried and confused,I had saved my pride,and surpressed my anger,I asked Beauty to confide in me ,at least there was nothing more she could do to me that would be more humiliating than she already did,,so tell me the truth,Did you Murder Mr Williams,I had asked,she looked me straight in the eyes and said,I know I had betrayed your trust and love for me,and you would probably not have any reason to believe me anymore,but please,just hear me this once,I Don't have a hand in Chief's Death,she had said
....the first hearing was in few days,all hope seems lost,my mother in-law had become worried over her only child been in cell, probably on her way to jail or death,she had stopped eating well,she was looking sick already,my father in-law may have tried acting like a man,but I know deep down he's as hurt as the rest of us.
I turned to God,he alone could see us through this, because even my barrister who happens to be one of the best in the State seems confused as well.
One evening,I got a call from a lady who I knew not,asking to see me as regards my wife's case,we met that evening to a small fast food.
Who are you please,and how did you get my contact,and please what's the help you say you have,calm down Mr CY,I called you right,i would want our meeting to remain between us,I AM a helper in the Williams mansion,and I think Mrs Williams knows something about her husband's death,she had said.......
