Chapter 96Shawn's POV.I stared at the door that had been destroyed and I was lost for words. The person who had broken into the house had done some sort of a good job not to leave any prints or hints on who he was… but at the same time, I knew there was always a way.I avoided eye contact with Ava and Amelia just when I knew all of this was my fault. I had hurried out earlier to go have a good time without locking the door.We were still outside of the house and Ava had whispered into my ear that they had noticed the house had been broken into, and when they walked in, it was really not the kind of place they needed to be in so they had to walk right back out, and since then, they had kept themselves out until I returned. They could not even involve the police in this because they knew they were going to ask a lot of questions and not try to solve the real problem and even if they did, they would take days, weeks if not months to help get them out of the situation. Ava was on her p
Chapter 96Shawn's POV.We had just gotten the first part right. We figured out how we could get together with who had done this to us, but we all knew that there was much more work to be done than this. The look on Amelia and Ava's faces said it all.After taking out the chip, which I speculated must have contained the video content we needed, I took it to my laptop and immediately played it there, rewinding it to the point we all saw the group of guys come to attack the house.That was just one piece of evidence, and we did not have all the evidence we needed to file a case or even present it to the police when they would come to ask their crazy questions… They always had a way of annoying the citizens by asking a lot more questions than even giving out a solution to the problem. It was the one reason Amelia and Ava never liked reporting any case to the police because nothing was going to be done.Ava and Amelia gathered just when the video began to play to watch all the action and
Chapter 98“You need to promise me that you are not going to tell anyone about what you know about this plan or whatever I will tell you right now” Mike's words kept on ringing in her ears like he had been right there beside her whispering.The clique of girls had been standing just right behind her waiting for her to give them the answer to the question they had asked “Did you not hear us? Tell me what is going on with you and that asshole!” one of them hollered at Leah.“I do not have to tell you anything. You know, you should just mind your business and stay out of mine. Just maybe we will enjoy our stay here in prison!" Leah said to them and was just about to take the bold step when one of the girls quickly grabbed her hair, pulling her to the ground.“You bitch!! You don't talk to us that way, especially not you who just arrived, fucker!” she cursed, eventually spitting at Leah.“Why the hell did you do that? Is it so hard to mind your fucking business? Or you just want to take
Chapter 99Everyone stood still, making no noise as they waited to see who was coming. They knew that if it was the guards, they had no other option but to end his life. They needed to be careful, and the guards knew all of their plans were going to jeopardize everything they worked hard for.Just then, someone crept out from the dark and he quickly showed himself.“Wait!! Wait!!" The man yelled quickly and tried to block all the hits that were targeted at him. He literally saved himself by speaking up.“What the hell? Where have you been the whole time?" The man, supposedly the leader, spoke up asking.“I walked out to get some water a couple of hours ago but then I could not come back," he tried to explain“What do you mean you could not come back?” “The guards, they were up but this time earlier than we had anticipated and I couldn't come back in time to warn you," he mumbled, looking right down at his feet.“Wait! Warn us about what?" Leah voiced out, noticing no one was going to
Chapter 100“911, what's your emergency?” the voice on the other end of the call, voiced ou5.“There has been a break-in, into my home. I don't know what to do now, and I think my house has been destroyed, I have no way to go now," Amelia answered the questions.“Ma'am, please you need to be calm, can you do that for me?”“Sure…sure!!”“Great… So where are you, in your house, yes?"“Yes!"“Alright, please tell us your location,” the voice on the other end of the call asked and just then, Amelia turned to look at Shawn and Ava, and they quickly gave her a nod to carry on.Amelia revealed her location and they promised that they were coming immediately to check on them and see what happened.Amelia ends the call abruptly and turns to see the sharp dull look on Shawn's face but quite the opposite on Ava's. It quickly clicked that something must have been wrong because Shawn did not look happy when the police were involved in the matter. It looked like he was interested in solving it alon
Chapter 101 "Can we come in?" The voice of the policeman echoed. It was the only thing Shawn heard from the conversation the girls had with the police. Shawn did not wait for the answers, there were already shivers running down his spine. He was already feeling sick in the stomach… It was the moment he felt a dart of electricity through his body. “Are these gonna be my last days?" Shawn mumbled, squeezing himself tight in the little space he had seen in the room. “Is There anything you need inside? I only called so we could talk and not come into my home," Ava said to the policeman that stood before her. “We only wanted to see the level to which the house had been raided. We could as well put that in our report as we head back," the officer said to her. "I am not sure that is necessary, officer, but you are prepared to take a picture of that if you wish," Ava said, pointing to the glass and wood from the door that had been broken by the same people who broke into the house. “Okay
Chapter 102Mike's Pov.I was tense, even Leah could notice, seeing the way u had been vibrating. One thing I was afraid of was that we were going to be caught, or maybe someone had spilt our secret. For what it was worth, no one knew all of our plans, except for the group of men we worked with, and of course, Leah who had promised to remain quiet and act alongside the rest of us. They reached the door where someone who looked to be his guard told us to wait until we were let in. During that time, I watched Leah the whole time and it seemed like this did not matter. She looked calm, cool and collected even when it seemed we were very much in trouble."What do you think he is looking for us for?" Leah asked suddenly."Does it look like I have any idea? Of course, I don't know. We just have to pray it isn't something bad that would cause coke drastic execution…” I mumbled, shaking my head in despair."Are you afraid?" Leah asked calmly, liking her face just in front of my face."Hey, d
Chapter 103Mike's Pov.I walked right out of his office, feeling the pressure, tension and exhaustion. My back aches like I had been sitting there for days. I looked toward the guard who stood there to direct us back into the prison yard where the rest of the prisoners were. At some point, I had a feeling that I did not make the right choice by accepting the offer, but it seemed very clear that I had no other choice but to do this. There was no way I was going to get free and not be killed. From the things I heard about him, he surely doesn't care if I die or live, unless I get the work done and he gets what he wants.The door swung open and I stepped my feet into the yard. I could feel the eyes of the other prisoners feasting at me like they knew what I had just done. “I have to be careful now!" I whispered to myself, trying hard to hold tight to the shredded confidence I had remained in me. I walked in like nothing had happened, reaching for my favorite spot but I knew it was no
