S3-Chapter 157

Author: Maria Anita
Flavian’s POV

We left college and the police officers were waiting for me, leaning against their patrol car. I barely noticed Lexie and Peter Hank behind me. I approached the officers, about to explode with anger.

"Well, which one of you is certain that Manuela didn't leave the building?" I stopped in front of them, irritated.

"Detective, we didn't see the young lady leave," insisted the officer who had spoken to me on the phone.

"What the hell were you doing that you didn't stop that man?" I asked, feeling the urge to break both their faces.

"Detective, we didn't think it was necessary," the officer continued insisting.

"Didn't think it was necessary? You're here to protect her, she was under threat of kidnapping, and you see a suspicious guy but don't stop him?" I complained and saw the other officer nervously run his hand through his hair.

"You." I pointed to the other one. "You better tell me what happened here, or I'll report both of you to Internal Affairs and request your dismis

    Flavian’s POVWe arrived at Cam's house, and upon seeing the discouraged expression on my face, he immediately realized we hadn't found Manuela. I let my body collapse into a chair; I was going to lose my mind - I needed to find her."What happened, Flavian?" Orlando approached and sat next to me."She wasn't there," I replied dejectedly. "But I'm sure she was. The way things were there... They must have taken her away before we arrived.""That's exactly what I think," Albert sat down too. "Here's the thing, Flavian, the detective approached the police officer who was watching Rita's house and took him to the police station. He identified himself and explained why he was there.""That's how she got out without us knowing. The officer was removed from the location, and she was able to leave without us being notified," I concluded."Exactly. I've already sent that officer back to my city. He's new, inexperienced. It was my mistake bringing him. He said he thought there would be no proble

    Clavin’s POVI was riding through the plantation, thinking about my good fortune and the beautiful Manuela. Rita was worthless, trying to sell the girl. When she approached me proposing to marry Manuela to my son, I thought it would be a good solution - maybe he would settle down and stop wasting my money on parties and brothels around town. But when I saw that girl, I had no doubt - I would marry her myself. Now I was as anxious as a young boy. You know what, I was going to move this wedding up to tomorrow, Rita could throw all the tantrums she wanted.I returned to town, but before reaching the notary's office, I ran into the detective. That puppet only did what his wife told him and what my money bought. It was good he was like that, since my son was always getting into trouble and I had my own messes to cover up, especially regarding the people I needed to get rid of."Calvin, I'm glad I found you," Detective Roger said."What is it now, Roger? I don't have time," I replied curtly.

    Flavian’s POVWe arrived at the location Jefferson had pointed out. It was a small farm on the outskirts of the city. The nearest house was about two hundred meters away, but on the side, there was a narrow dirt road that led to the highway - probably the path the young man took when returning from college, which was how he noticed the activity.After parking at a distance, we could still see Calvin entering the house. We quickly surrounded the entire place, and it took less than five minutes from parking to having the thugs subdued. Then we entered the house. The door was unlocked; I pushed it open and saw Calvin and Rita standing in the living room."What did you do, Rita?" He was yelling at her just as we opened the door."Both of you, hands up, walk slowly to the wall," I called out loudly."What kind of circus is this? Who are you people?" Calvin asked, and while he was focused on me, two officers came from behind and subdued him and Rita, who flashed a cold smile."Police, you id

    Manuela’s POVI was curled up on that couch, crying and praying for a miracle. My entire body was already aching from the beating Rita had given me earlier. But to my dismay, Rita didn't take long to return. She probably already knew what she wanted and came back to terrorize me once again."I'm back, little rat! And guess what, your little brother Cam wants to negotiate with me." She smiled with satisfaction. "You know what that means? It means I'm going to get everything I want."She laughed and slapped me across the face again."You know, Manuela, I'm going to miss beating you, it's so relaxing." She laughed and slapped me again.But she wasn't satisfied; she never would be. She sat down across from me and crossed her legs."You know, Manuela, taking care of you all these years was the most boring and exhausting thing I've ever done in my life." She examined her nails."You never took care of me." Since she was being honest, I would be too."What's that, girl? Don't be insolent." Ri

    Cam’s POVWhat a hellish night we had. My father was devastated, Olivia was nervous, and Flavian was about to explode. Still no news about Manu, and it was already midday. The police officers had gone out during the early hours to patrol the city and check the addresses I had given them of Calvin's properties, but Flavian hadn't reported back yet.Neither my father nor I could go to work. I couldn't focus on the company, so I just told the secretary to postpone everything. My phone rang, and looking at the screen, I saw it was the devil herself calling. I put it on speaker so my father and Olivia could hear, but I signaled them to stay quiet."What do you want, Rita?" I asked when I answered."Well, to talk to you, obviously. What else would someone call for?" She was trying to act smart with me."Rita, I don't have time, and even if I did, I wouldn't waste it talking to you." I tested to see what she would say."Well, if I were you, I would make time. I'm waiting for you at my house."

    Manuela’s POVI did not get a wink of sleep all night. But even if I wanted to, Calvin snored like a broken exhaust pipe, I had never seen anything like it. When he woke up, I was sitting on the bed with my back to him."Already awake, Manuela? You're an early riser," he remarked, and all I could think was "oh sure, because I slept like a queen listening to your snoring." Oh, how this man infuriated me!"Calvin, please let me go. I will never marry you, there's no way in the world my mother can convince me of that." I stood up and looked at him."Girl, girl, I'll tame you." He laughed like a fool. I wanted to throw something at his head to wake him up from this delusion. "Look, Manuela, I'm going to tell you something, I've known Rita for a long time..." he started to say."Oh sure, you were even her lover! Indeed, you've known her for a long time and know her very well." I was seething with anger, not even knowing where I found the courage to say all this to him."So you already know.
