Chapter 65
Joe Bandit P.O.V
I ran towards the door after John and pulled out my phone to call my dad and alert him on what was going on. He picks up the phone right away.
“Dad, Andrew is here,” I quickly informed.
“Yes, John called and told me.” Replied my father.
I took a look at John in confusion. “You called my dad?”
John nodded his head, but he wasn’t looking at me. He was being quiet and tried to look through the window by the door.
“I’m already on my way there now. The cops will be there too.” Said my father. “Stay in the car and don’t get out.”
“But dad,” I started to say, because I was already out of the car.
“No buts Joe,” he started to argue.
I growled and hung up on him. Not wanting to extend the conversation when this moment was a life-or-death type of situation.
John put his hand on the d

Joe Bandit P.O.VAndrews eyes widened and he smiled widely. “Ben!” he shouted in fake delight and arms open wide in gesture. His smile then dropped, “What a pleasant surprise,” he sneered.“You should have never came back,” growled my father. “Joe, get my son and Annie out of here.”“Ben,” Mrs. Dawson got ready to argue. She shook her head, not wanting to leave.I looked at my father, not wanting to leave either. Is he stupid!? If he let his guard down, Andrew will kill him.My father looked at me, knowing I was ready to argue. “Go you guys. Now.”John held the gun to Andrew, and backed away slowly. Making sure Mrs. Dawson and I were at the door before him.Hoping John will listen, I look at him with a serious look, “Stay with dad.”He nodded his head, accepting my order. I then turned to Mrs. Daw

Belle Bandit P.O.VI groaned in pain as I start to wake up from my sleep. My head is pounding from a serious migraine and my ears are ringing. I’m sitting on a chair with my feet tied with ropes and my arm tied behind my back to a chair. I feel like I got hit my Muhammad Ali in a fight and lost.Feeling Clueless as I scanned the room that I was in, “Where am I?”I was in an empty room with nothing else, but the silence to fill me. My mind tried to recall what I was doing last. Ben had already left for work, and Joe had left to pick up Chasity for school. I was the last to leave and as I was heading to my car, I turned around when I saw a reflection of a man approaching me from behind. They knocked me at the back of the head before I got the chance to turn around. Next thing I know, I wake up here.“Someone please help me!” I shouted as loud as I could, knowing that there’s a chance no one might come.

James Cotton P.O.VI smile as everything that I’ve waited for fall into plan. I accept the call, and watch Belle as I pick up the phone. I put it to my ear waiting for the onslaught of threats I know I will receive. If ben is calling me then obviously that idiot Andrew Dawson failed. No matter, I always have a backup plan anyways.“Hi Ben!” I greeted with chipper.“WHERE IS MY WIFE!?” shouted ben from the other side of the line.I cringed and pulled the phone away from my ear.“GIVE ME BACK MY WIFE!!!” he continued to shout.“BEN!!!” Screamed Belle.“BELLE!” shouted Ben, when he heard her voice.I put the phone back to my ear, holding it a bit away because I know he wasn’t done yelling.“You know how this is going to go ben,” I drawled. “We’ve watched enough movies to know what happens here.”&ldq

Joe Bandit P.O.VI watched as the man my father brutally beaten groaned from the immense pain he was feeling. His face all bloodied up and bruised, he looked almost unrecognizable. Then again, I’m sure any man would if they were beaten the way Andrew was.“So, what now dad?” I asked, as I watched him pace back and forth.He looked at John instead of me, “I want all the men to be at Owls Tower at eleven. We are meeting James at midnight. He wants me to sign over the rights to my company.”“Yes sir,” nodded John.This is so weird seeing my best friend acting this way. As Andrew was getting a beating from my father, John confessed that my dad hired him as my body guard. John’s family are a part of a secret organization that protects very wealthy men. It doesn’t matter if the person is good or bad. If the money pays well, then the bodyguard the client receives will be even better.
Speak To Me Chapter 70
Joe Bandit P.O.VThe whole car ride to the safe house, was spent in total silence. No one spoke and no one needed to. I didn’t know that my dad had a safe house. Did my mom know about it? If she did, why didn’t she tell me? It was now an hour and we still weren’t there. We were heading to the mountains and the deeper we went I saw less and less proof of civilization.An hour later, Gio finally spoke up, “We’re here.”I watched as he pulled into a lane that led to a small shack.“You’ve got to be kidding me Gio,” I couldn’t help but say. “I don’t mean to sound spoiled but my father is a rich man. I assumed that he would have bought a bigger safe house.”Gio got out of the car and smirked at me. “Your father is a very rich man indeed.”I raised my brow at the way he spoke. As if he knew something I didn’t.Gio went to Annie to help her walk,

Joe Bandit P.O.VI looked at Chasity’s eyes and couldn’t believe how lucky I got to have this girl in my life. Our situation is weird, considering the fact that her dad tried to kill my parents, but I’m still grateful that one of the results is something that led Chasity into my life.Not wanting to say this, but needing to come clean I tell her my secret, “Chasity, I knew that your dad was alive.”Her eyes widened. “Why didn’t you tell me?”She didn’t pull away from me, so this was a good sign.“My father advised against it. We argued so many times, because I wanted to tell you and he didn’t feel like it was the time to do it.”She looked down, “I heard you guys arguing one time in the office. The door wasn’t fully shut. You were screaming at each other and one of the things you said is something along the lines of, a girl having the right t

Joe Bandit P.O.V“You want to know what’s so funny?” I laughed out loud at the sudden thought.Gio and Chasity looked at me. “What?” they asked in unison.I shook my head, “Earlier I could have sworn I saw Payton, as we were coming down the elevator.”Gio’s fork dropped from his hand and onto his plate in shock. “You saw Payton? Here?” He rushed out, looking around in alert.The smile that was on my face fell.“Well, I think I saw her.” I said starting to feel uneasy. “I could be wrong. Why? Is that not a good thing?”Gio stood up and shook his head.“The call that I just had, was from one of our men. He said that he found videos of Payton meeting James Cotton last week and was at your house today while you and your parents were out. She was there when your mother was abducted. Your mother didn’t se
Speak To Me Epilogue
Joe Bandit P.O.VI felt like someone punched me in the gut and I couldn’t breathe. When Gio told me, what happened to John I almost joined him in destroying the house. That didn’t happen, only because Chasity heard Gio throwing things and came running downstairs. When I told her that John died, she threw her arms around me and hugged me tight as she cried her eyes out. My eyes flooded with tears, and I tried to keep it at bay but it was useless.If John saw me crying right now, he’d tell me, “Only girls cry Joe.” Then I’d push him and say “You’ve cried before too! So that makes you a girl!” We’d laugh and head to the theater room to watch a movie. It pained me to know that we would never get to do that again.When the exchange for my mother had been made after my dad signed the documents that would give James complete control of my father’s company, shots were fired.
