LOGIN"Shouldn't we stop him?" Cara asked out of fear. "Why should we?" Camilla asked. They all turned towards her. Her brows were furrowed and her hands were clenching so hard. "Cam--" her husband called out to her but she cut him off. "That bastard deserved everything Romeo did to him in school back then and this monster isn't any different. He's not going to kill him, that's the most important thing. But he's going to confess, I know for sure." "But Camilla--" Cara started but was cut off too. "Aren't you tired?" She spat out. "Going back and forth for days on end, nothing is coming out of it because that idiot sees us as a push over. We're not going to get anywhere if we don't take measures into our own hands."And we're not doing anything illegal. The police know he's here, we promised to get a confession out of him as fast as possible but it's been three weeks! They'll take him away soon and there will be nothing we can do about it by then." Tori sighed. "I hate to admit it but
They got home to find Jessica and her son cuddled together on the sofa. Camilla had gone to rest, Tori and Miranda were in the bedroom along with Alice, Aria, and her daughter. Jastrow was in the kitchen with Cara's dad. The moment they got back home, Romeo announced Cara needed to sleep and they would have a meeting after she was well rested and the others were back. He took her straight to the master bedroom where they slept. The two women and Aria were together there with the kids. Cara climbed up in bed and cuddled Alice in her arms. The cheerful little girl was wide awake and wanted to play. "Did something happen at the hospital?" Tori asked. He sighed. "We'll discuss it at the meeting. I want to see the man they brought here, the chameleon." Romeo said. Tori nodded. "Okay, go ahead. But be careful. That man is a vicious one." "What makes you say that?" His brow twitched slightly. "I went to see him and before you say anything, I made sure he didn't see me. He's scarre
"Cara!""Cara!"Cara ignored them as they called out to her and rushed outside. Her chest had suddenly felt so tight and she needed air into her lungs. Her legs buckled and she leaned on the wall for support. Tears welled up in her eyes and poured down her face. "What is wrong with me?" She asked herself, gasping for air amidst her sobbing. She punched at her chest repeatedly, still finding it hard to breathe. Her face was wet with tears. "Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! Stop--"Romeo grabbed her hand before she could land another punch on her chest. He pulled her into his arms without uttering a single word and hugged her tightly. She sobbed louder now, finally breathing. "I'm sorry." She said amidst her loud sobs. "I don't know what is wrong with me, I don't mean to... I don't mean to do this to you... I'm sorry." Romeo was silent still. He just hugged her tightly without letting go. When her legs finally gave up, not able to hold her weight anymore, she crouched down to the ground
Micheal Knowles looked so different than he used to, almost like he had aged times two. His sunken eyes looked so exhausted and his skin looked so dehydrated. He sat down next to Chris' bed, staring at his son, almost teary eyed. "What happened to him?" Romeo asked, standing next to Cara. The man let out a quite heavy sigh. He gripped the side of the bed tightly. "My son really wanted to be good and get out of there earlier, they'd promised if he changed, he could have an early release. So he did everything right. "He did regret a lot of things, he was losing it in there. But he managed to push through each and every day. "Until one day, one psycho started picking on him. He said he was a supporter of Cara and didn't believe Chris could hurt you that way. So he hurt him every single day."Cara gasped softly. She stepped forward. "Why wasn't this reported? If he told you all of this then you should have brought it to the warden's attention." "Trust me, I did." Micheal admitted. "
Romeo stared confusedly at the message on the screen of his phone. He immediately called the attention of everyone. "Guys, I wanted to make sure Chris wouldn't be able to do any new tricks from prison, so I reached out to the prison where he's being held and explained some things to them. "They said they'd look into it so I naturally just waited. I reached out last night. I got a message from them just now and they're telling me the prisoner with the name I gave them has been in a coma for the past four months." Cara sprung to her feet. "What??!" "That's impossible." Abigail added, joining Cara on her feet. "I know." Romeo looked genuinely surprised and confused. "These attacks, they began three months ago which means that was when they got their first order. It doesn't make any sense." "Could it be possible that he has been faking a coma all these past few months just to get himself a strong alibi?" Andrew suggested. "That's plausible." Jastrow supported. "He could have
Jessica drove as fast as she could, hands clenching the wheels as tightly as they could. They had made sure her phone couldn't be tracked but Jessica still wanted to make it to the apartment just in time. In case the psycho had tried to track her phone and make sure she was at the apartment like she claimed. Looking behind her, she saw some cars following behind her. If she hadn't been notified, she wouldn't have known. They were so incognito. She felt a bead of sweat roll down her forehead and she wiped it off. Her stomach twisted and churned and her breaths grew short. She felt so nervous. She reminded herself of Romeo's words. "Inside the apartment are five agents who can protect you. Don't try to look for them, you'll give them up without even knowing. "On your floor, there are also five agents in different apartments. And it's the same on each floor. You're safe, as safe as you'll ever be. Don't worry." She swallowed hard, almost choking on her saliva. As she
“Did you hear? The hitman, your friend's ex boyfriend right? He's been sentenced to twenty years in prison.” Romeo said to Cara. He waited for a response but didn't get any. When he stared closely at her, he realised that she was there but her mind was elsewhere. He placed a hand on hers as he ca
Romeo blinked.It took a moment for him to understand what he had said correctly and the reason she was feeling so flustered. His eyes shone in realization."Oh wait no!" He exclaimed. "That is not what I meant. Okay, uh it's not what I meant to say. What I meant by what I said is that I want you to
Her eyes widened for an instant before anger dawned upon her. Her day had been going perfectly well until the universe threw such a bad luck at her.Chris’ eyes widened. “Cara…” he muttered.She frowned. “Will your insurance cover the damages? It is quite much.” She ignored any attempt at a friendly c
Chris’ eyes widened. “What? What nonsense are you spilling from your mouth?”Jessica snorted a laugh. “You might be an Armani but Mr Michael Knowles is Chris’ dad and who do you think he will listen to? A stranger or his own son?”“We'll have to find out, won't we?” Romeo's brow arched. His lips curve
