Alfred cries bitterly while listening to the confession Mia and Harley were making, through the bug. Kayla smirked and tighten her grip on the steering wheel. None of them could believe that their closest person was the one behind everything.
“Who would think my cousin could do such a thing!” Kayla laughs in amusement. Right now all she’s feeling is rage.
“Kayla, I trusted her with everything. I’ve loved and adored her all these years and I never for once had the thought that she might be behind her death. She always talked about Selena with a smile on her face.” Alfred sobs quietly, clutching tight at his phone in his hand.
“Mia too?! I never thought someone that I took as my sister would plant my death because of a mere fortune, why?” he ask no one in particular.
“If she should have sat me down and narrated everything to me, I would have told my uncle to forget about giving me anything, I’ve had enough, I don’t need any of my father’s properties, I should have told them to take everything.” he drops his head in his hand, crying bitterly as the thought of his family planting his death break his heart in a million pieces.
“Because of them, I’ve been suffering from the illusion of my dead wife that I created in my head, I made my son my enemy and now they’re torturing my woman, making her suffer for a sin she never committed. Can this life ever get better for me?” Alfred feels his tears stream down his eyes uncontrollably.
March seat quietly in the backseat, she doesn’t make any sound as she listens to the conversation with her face hard in anger.
“Alfred, nothing is going to happen to Melanie, please calm down.” Kayla move her free hand to his shoulder, patting him gently and letting him calm down a bit.
Alfred raises his head from his hand and moves his gaze out of the window. “How can I calm down when they have their filthy guns pointed at my wife and d-daughter.” he stutter, the thought of Melanie having a daughter for him still surprise him, but he was more concerned about rescuing them than digging into the truth behind the girl’s birth.
“It seems they want her to join them, I don’t think they would pull the trigger yet.” Kayla sighs, she says what she believes is the truth. Any wrong move from Melanie, she knows they might have killed her before they get there but she doesn’t want to believe that.
“What if she proves stubborn and does not join in their dirty game?” Alfred asks with fear in his eyes.
“I fear they’ll do the worst,” she replies blankly. “But we can’t let that happen.” Kayla shakes her head nervously.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
Right now, she’s not the cop that always has her head up high. She’s just a mere citizen now that’s on her way to save her friend from every harm.
Alfred moves his hand to his head and pulls his hair real hard. “I swear I’m going to kill Mia if she does anything funny to my woman.” he groans out from his seat, his fist clench tight beside him.
“Did you forward the recording to the guys at my office?” Kayla asks, pulling to a route that leads to the Gordons’ abandoned warehouse.
~I can’t, and I will never join you guys in your stupid game. Go ahead and kill me, bitch. I don’t give a fuck about your reason.~
They hear the angry voice of Melanie blast from the recording device. Kayla grits her teeth in anger.
‘What the fuck is going on in there, Melanie please buy me as much time as you could before I get there. You can’t argue with those beasts, Mel, please I don’t want to lose you’ Kayla says in her mind, her tears flow like a river, and she bite her bottom lip while trying to calm her anger.
Alfred on the other hand grabs a handful of his hair and pulls it real hard until he feels pain in his head. He’s gradually losing his mind and he can’t wait to get to the warehouse and snap Mia’s head off her body.
The love he has for her as his family has vanished into thin air which now replaces with hatred. “How much longer to get to that fucking warehouse?” he yells at Kayla, if she’s a timid person, she must have peed in her pant at how deadly he sounds.
“One more turn and we’re there.” Kayla blunts out simply. She watches Alfred huff from the corner of her eyes. She sighs and takes the last turn that leads to the location.
Watching the warehouse from afar, Alfred made to open the door but Kayla stop him by yanking his hand off the knob. “Do you intend on getting yourself killed? Who’s going to stop those bastards if you get yourself killed? You didn’t think I can do this on my own, did you? Get your act together and snap out of it.” She yells to his face.
Alfred curse and groans as he ruffles his head sadly. The car pull to a halt and he rush down before the rest could. He grabs his firearm and walks over to Kayla when he sees a car coming their way.
A cab stops in front of them and Kayla positions her pistol ready to fire anyone from the car when the door opens and she recognises the figure at once.
“Fuck! Archie!” she groans and watches the boy walk up to them.
Archie walks up to his father and stops right in front of him. Alfred smiles sadly and opens his arm to take his son in a warm hug. He has missed the boy a lot but doesn’t know how to meet him.
Archie hiss angrily and walks past his father, he brushes his shoulder against his arm as he walks up to Kayla. He sniffles back his tears and throws himself at Kayla. “Miss Officer, I think Mom is in danger.” He hugs her tightly, ruining her shirt with his tears.
