Chapter 55


    Katherine quickly prayed in her heart that this wouldn''t be a dream. She pinched herself to be sure this


    wasn''t happening in her dream.


    "Oh my days!" excitement abound so much in her that she bursted into tears and started crying.


    "Marshall, thank you so much. I can''t thank you enough for all you have done for me," Katherine said.


    "So I believe you can resume work tomorrow. Our injured soldiers are still many and the war is just


    three weeks to start," Derrick said.


    "Definitely. Marshall, how about the amunitions? Have you spoken to the government about it?"


    Katherine asked.


    Derrick stood and said, "just take care of my soldiers, General Katherine." Then he walked out.


    Katherine''s face fell, was he angry? Has she said something wrong? She only asked out of concern.


    He had said he would take responsibility for what happened before the government.


    Katherine quickly called Samantha and told her the good news. Samantha literally screamed on phone.


    Samantha was on duty at that time so she asked if they could go celebrate at a bar this night to which


    Katherine agreed. When it was evening, Katherine started getting dress for the bar. It''s been a long


    time she go to the bar to have fun.


    While at it, her door opened. Who was so rude to enter without even knocking.


    "Donna, how dare you enter my room without knocking?" Katherine asked angrily.


    Donna smirked, "I can see that you are happy, of course, you have been vindicated from the crime."


    Donna then walked closer to her, "you are lucky this time but you may not be lucky next time."


    "I knew it. This was all your n. You were the person who covered her face and lightened fire on the


    amunition building. The coverage has already been recovered and trust me, they will soon fish you


    out."


    Donna smirked, "you underestimated how smart I am, Katherine. My advise for you is simple, divorce


    Derrick. I already know the both of you are married. After divorcing him, return back to Eastern Ocean


    City to live your life."


    "Who are you to tell me what to do?"


    "I want Derrick and I''ll have him. I''ll also get rid of anyone standing in my way. Also, I have heard that

    you have found out that Mrs. Kate and her husband are your real parents. This truth you know is too


    dangerous for you, my dear. For the sake of your children, return to Eastern Ocean City."


    "You can''t tell me what to do, Donna. Since you have chosen yourself to always stand in my way, then


    let''s see who is going to get rid of who. You won seven years ago but this time, I want to see your end."


    Katherine spoke boldly.


    "Wow!" Donna smiled, "Since I''ve advised you and you have refused. I guess I''ve got no choice but to


    show you how desperate I am," Donna said and whisper," I saw Marshalling over here.


    Before Katherine could make sense of herst statement, Donna brought out a knife, wrapped


    Katherine''s hand quickly around the handle and stabbed herself in the stomach.


    "What!" Everything happened in a second that Katherine didn''t have the time to process what just


    happened.


    The door opened at that moment and Derrick walked in, he sighted Donna bleeding in the stomach, he


    also sighted a bloody knife on the floor. He rushed to her and seeing how deep the wound is, he


    shouted, "get first aid!"


    Then he quickly called the ambnce. Katherine came around with the first aid box quickly and began


    to work on stopping the bleeding. The ambnce men soon stormed inside the building and carried


    Donna away.


    After the ambnce men were out of sight, he asked her, "what have you done to Donna?"


    She stuttered, confused, "This is a set up."


    "A set up?" He repeated. "You mean she stabbed herself?"


    Katherine shook her head and spoke quickly, "Marshall, please believe me. She came to my room


    and..."


    "And you stabbed her angrily foring, General Katherine." He said. Katherine''s head fell in sadness.


    Donna kept setting traps after traps for her.


    "Marshall..."


    "Enough!" He cut her off. Then he called the forensic men toe over. They came and picked up the


    knife that was used to stab Donna.


    "Let me know as soon as possible if General Katherine''s finger print is on the knife," he said.


    "Got it, sir." The forensic men said and walked away.


    "Meet me in my study," he said and walked out.


    Katherine was still half dressed for the bar. She was excited just this morning and now this? She then


    left her room and walked over to his study room.


    Standing before his desk, Katherine could only feel pathetic.


    "You may have your sit. I''m waiting for the forensic men to get back to me," Derrick said.


    Katherine sat. Her mind suddenly trailed to when Donna wrapped her arms around the handle of the


    knife. Oh! So that was why?


    "My fingerprint is on the
