S3-Chapter 134

Author: Maria Anita
Rita’s POV

That little rat was very well protected. I thought I was lucky when I saw her leaving the building, but she was the lucky one. I didn’t know where those police officers came from. I was going back home empty-handed. The worst part was that Calvin's deadline was almost up. But I had to find a way.

I got home and Madeline was waiting for me. She was a very useful friend, the detective's wife. He did everything she wanted, and she did everything I wanted. She was a religious zealot, always buried in church, but she was a sinner - a useful sinner. She gossiped about everyone's life in this city, knew everyone's dirty secrets. Well, almost everyone's, because she thought I was a saint. Everyone in this city thought I was a devout woman; sometimes I just wanted to laugh.

"Rita, where's your daughter? Didn't you find her?" Madeline looked at me curiously. It was better to play the victim.

    Rita’s POVI was having very bad days, and I still had not figured out how to get money from Orlando. The maid rushed into the living room, panting and gesturing like a madwoman."Oh, Rita, there are three men at the door. Three, Rita! One wants to speak with young Julian, says he's a court officer, and the other two, who look quite shady if you ask me, want to speak with you, say Calvin sent them." This woman talked way too loud."Why would a court officer be looking for me, Cida?" Julian was entering the living room and overheard."I don't know, he said he would only speak with you, sir." The maid replied."Ah, just let them all in at once." I responded, irritated by all the chatter.The maid went back to the door and told the three men to enter, and soon they were standing before me in the living room."What do you want, officer?" I did not know this officer, but I could tell it was him by his clothes and the absence of a hat."Mr. Julian Menezes Blanco?" The officer asked directly

    Cam’s POVThe woman who approached me was over forty, with very simple manners and eyes filled with tears. She was wringing a small handkerchief in her hands, and a young man stood beside her, supporting her."I apologize for my mother, but ever since the police officer came to our house, she's been restless and nervous," the young man said.I moved closer to her and gently held her hands. There was so much pain in those eyes; it seemed they had been crying for a long time - the marks around them told that story. My grandmother used to say that the heart of a mother who loses her child could never be consoled."I'm so sorry!" was all I could say before becoming emotional myself. I knew that baby could have been her daughter or my sister; there was a pain uniting us in that moment. "Could we talk for a while? Do you have time?" She just nodded.We left the cemetery and sat down at a nearby diner. My father and she connected through their shared pain, through the tragedies that had struc
