Chapter 53
"Should I be worried?" Lucas asks when he steps on the porch and his eyes meet mine. My hands are clenched and my eyes fuming with anger. I don't know what fuels me but I swing my palm until it connects with his left cheek. His eyes narrow as he glares at me. "What was that for?"
"You dare ask me that?..." I scoff. "You... liar!" I yell, hitting at his chest. I look crazy right now but I need to let go of this doubt in me. I need him to tell me that he didn't do this. I really need him to.

"You...you were in the house the night of the murder" I sob and his eyes fall. He didn't deny it or try to argue, he was really there. My chest constrict. Is Lucas who he really says he is?have I been sleeping with Ethan'

I'm not about to let anything happen to her, because even a single scratch on her arm, could lead to Elaine not ever talking to me in this life. She's already being so suspicious of me. Since she found out that little mystery of me being in the house of the Riveras the night of the murder, I've been threading thinly."Stay close toe at all times" I tell Ash and she rolls her eyes but still nod. The place is quiet just like Larry and Riley said. Old books are stocked in corners of shelves, there are cobwebs hanging around the place, dust on every table, and rats scurrying around. It's like no one has been in here for days. But Riley said the man that's been harrassing Ash was tracked to this warehouse, that means there's got to be something here. Anything actually, that even proves why he's a threat."Look around" I say to Riley, meanwhile, taking m

"Lucas Grayson?"Ashley nodded. She wasn't looking at me but at the giant mole on a man's head that just walked by. I snorted. The name Lucas does ring a bell in my head but I can't put my finger on it."Heard he bought this place like two weeks ago" Ashley took my hand and led me behind the bar stand. I wasn't ready to start working today. I'm not even sure how to mix anything. I only know how to make margaritas. And that's thanks to Ashley."So have you seen the boss?" I asked Ashley."Nope. Hardly comes here. I heard from Griffin that he's busy running his other businesses""Wow. Sounds like a busy guy" I cooed. A man came up to the bar and ordered a blue lagoon."Yeah. He is" Ashley filled a glass with ice, then added Smirnoff, vodka and lemonade together before mixing it. "Heard he's a cop too" I froze at that. I don't think it's a great idea to be working at a cops bar.
