With what I'm seeing, I feel like my wife is connected to this case in one way or the other and I'm trying to free her from the shackles that may hold her whenever this case gets revealed." Dean explains as he runs his hands through his hair at the other side of the call, placing his hand on the table gently.
"Are you trying to say everything is connected to whatever issue I had faced in the past? Do you feel your wife could be connected to my case? I doubt it. Evelyn is a nice person and she will never stoop so low to get herself in a murder case and how did you even know this? She behaving awkwardly in the house doesn't mean that she has something to do with the case or whatever that has happened. By the way, is she speaking to a stranger you do not know about? "Bianca said as she kept quiet waiting for Dean to reply as she looked at Leah who had confusion etched on her face."Listen girls this is my wife we are talking about here. Over the years since I've gotLeah tried to control the car but she couldn't. She lost control immediately. Immediately they were hit by the car which was coming with force in front of them."I'm trying Bianca…oh my god damn! "Bianca shouted as she had a car run them over again from behind causing the glass of the car to break into pieces thereby hurting her and Bianca. "We need to get out of here now! "Bianca shouted as he tried to open the car which was already locked from behind.Leah tried to kick the car but she couldn't because she was in a drunken state and she could not even defend Bianca as she is."Leah what's going on I need a little help from you, I'm trying to open the car from my side but it's not opening. Press the command button fast! "Bianca shouted at Leah who was also trying to survive as the smoke from the car began to choke the both of them. "I'm trying, it's not working! I think somebody must have fumbled with the car." Bianca shouted at the b
Leah looked back and saw that it was Bianca who was holding the wall in a patient's gown that looked like she was admitted to a hospital. She dropped the knife and quickly ran towards Bianca, hugging and tight."Hey baby are you okay? "Bianca asked as she hugged her while she wept on her shoulders."What were you thinking when you were attacking the good Samaritan of ours? "Bianca asked as she laughed a bit with her hand which was still hurting. "I'm so sorry I thought they came to kidnap us. I never knew that they were good men. I'm sorry." Leah replied as she detached from Bianca. "Do you know who these men are? And did you know who sent them? "Bianca asked as she looked at Leah who shook her head negatively."Am I supposed to know them? I thought you just said they are good Samaritans. At least they have done their part. Can we go home now?" Leah asked, looking from one person to another and back to Bianca."I don't think we
Bianca's povAs the blood spilled out of his mouth and dripped onto my white shirt due to the glass puncturing his lungs through his back, the words he had told me before the accident resounded in my brain. "Knowledge is power, Bianca. Did you know that?" He had asked softly. I looked at him and smiled. His gray hair was balding in the middle of his head but that didn't stop him from thinking so much, and saying 'wise' words out of nowhere."Of course, Grandpa." I rolled my eyes, "That sentence has been thrown around quite a bit, don't you agree?""That's the problem, my lovely girl. Just because a phrase is popular, people undermine its value and that's exactly what makes them miss out."As his lips paled due to the eerie amount of blood he was losing, he stared down at me, distinction bold in his brown gaze. And as the car came crashing down the cliff, I felt his grip around my body tighten while I closed my eyes and held back a loud piercing scream. I was shaking horribly and I c
Bianca's pov"Miss!"My eyes fluttered open when I heard a voice, along with a firm grip on my shoulder that shook me awake. When I saw that it was Dean, I felt an overwhelming sense of relief which made my eyes water."Dean," I stood up from the ground, whilst aware of my own weak legs. "My grandfather…"I looked behind Dean and saw the masses of helpers that were cleaning up the scene. My grandfather and the driver's body were now nowhere in sight."Unfortunately, the chairman passed away, as well as the driver. I'm sure you know that by now." Dean said sympathetically.I nodded and averted my gaze to the ground.Now that someone else was telling me what had happened, it made me feel weak and jelly inside, especially when I remembered how clearly my grandfather had protected me with his body when clearly I didn't deserve it. I was his grandchild! I was the one that was supposed to be agile and quick to save him, but I was useless, utterly useless!I swallowed under the impending gaz
"Leah, are we there yet?""Just hang on a bit longer, signorina." I sighed and leaned back on my seat in the black Ford jeep. Newsflash, Leah could speak Italian.My eyebrows furrowed and I clenched my fists as the aching of the past overwhelmed me all of a sudden. I looked out the window and the chilly air tousled my hair back, making me feel a little bit better.We had just got off the plane to Rome thirty minutes ago and we had been driving ever since, but that was too long in my opinion and Leah was convincing me to be patient but I knew I wouldn't. At least, not for long.The driver took a turn and Leah exhaled as she typed away on her tablet. Perhaps our destination was very close?"Leah," Just as I spoke, the driver pulled over in front of a tall gate."We're here, miss."I unlocked the door and pushed it open. I could see only the perch of a light blue roof beyond the gate. I wondered what more it would hold.Leah exchanged words with the driver in Italian and collected the
Bianca's povDominant sea blue eyes, clean shaven face, and the perfect amount of black shiny waves dancing over his face. His suit was sleek and stylish but I hadn't taken note of that before because of my desperation to use him to enter the club. But I saw my mistake now. My eyes opaquely discovered his Oxford black shoes that glistened under the bright club security lights.He tucked his hands in his pocket, his face unassuming as he scouted me with his curious bright eyes. Then he turned back to the security guards and they started exchanging words in Italian. I could only stare at him in wonder.This man was perfect! And he had a confidence that roared in his body language in a precise, daunting manner. There was no doubt that a man like this would be proud! Especially with the stare and expression his face naturally held.With a face like that, I truly understood why he would reject me without a care in the world and this infuriated me.So what if he was handsome, that didn't gi
"So he was kissing another woman?!" Leah looked astounded by the news and I didn't know how to respond."Yes," I said dryly."And you still want to pursue him?"I sighed and turned to Leah with crossed arms, "Do I have a choice?"Leah looked at me, her eyes glooming with sympathy. I hate sympathy."No," I pointed a finger at her, "Don't look at me that way if you can help it."Leah caught herself quickly and bowed her head, "Sorry.""Whatever. I'm going to try and figure out if Bennett Adams has something deep with that chic or if she's just a fling.""Right.""So stay in position and only watch from afar. Remember, don't drink!"Without waiting for a response, I strutted off, smiling at the men that looked my way. I stylishly scanned the room for Bennett and I spotted him walking out the club with a bunch of grown men. The woman he had been with on the other hand stood by the corner looking dejected. I did not know what might have happened between them but I sure as hell saw opportun
“So what would you have us do now sir” Leah asked, her eyes staring suspiciously at the man driving“I’ll have you do nothing than to follow me and let me get the bullet out of her arm , she’s going to die soon if not treated fast” the man said, swerving to his right direction."Huh?... Are you a medical practitioner?" Leah asked.."Damn, do I need to be a doc to save a life?" He fired back"Yeah, because I can't imagine someone who isn't in the medical field to endanger her life.. she's so..""Alright..alright, I'll get my doctor friend for you" He answered, reassuring them“But I told you I can ... .... Ahhh” Bianca mellowed, holding the arm where she was shot.Leah tried to get another rag that she can use to wrap her arms since the other one was soaked with her blood already.“You can have this” the man said, passing his face towel to the duo at the back seat “Don’t just look at me like that, just do what you have to do and save her life” he said to Leah who still stared at him.“
