My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 45: WANTED BY THE POLICE
KATIE’S POV“What do you know about the game afoot?“ I asked. She might know more than I did. After all, she had probably spent most of her life in that house.She shrugged. “little to nothing, but I know the most important thing. You're innocent. You don't strike me as someone who would do such anyway.“I had a sound mind to tell her that looks could be deceptive, even though I did know what I was capable of. “So if you know this, why don't you tell the police?“ I opted for it instead. It would be helpful to get her to give that statement on my behalf. Then, the police would have to investigate more instead of just concluding.She shook her head sadly. “I wish I could. I do. But what is my word against solid proof? They can easily decide that I'm lying, and where would that leave me?“As she explained, I understood her position in the case. She had to stay neutral or risk her job since Blaze was heading this whole conspiracy. And apart from that, she could be taken as my accomplic
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 46: KARMA CALLS
AUTHOR’S POV“She's not answering,” Hunter said, slipping his phone back into his pocket. His brother had asked him to call Katie, telling him he was the only one she would answer. Well, he was wrong; not only had she not answered, but she had also switched her phone off. His second attempt was met with a switched-off response.Blaze heaved a sigh, annoyed. Why did Katie have to give them so much trouble? And why didn't she answer Hunter's call? He was confident she cared very much for him and would not hesitate to do so, but that was all an act, too. “This is so fucked up," he said. Everything had been since he had found out the truth. And now, to add to it all, Katie was suddenly missing.How was that even possible? She had no idea what was happening in the home, and her secretary had said she came to work this morning. She also said she left early, and if that was true, she should have been back hours ago. Except if she hadn't gone to work and the secretary was lying. Or, more li
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 47: ENEMIES SMILES
KATIE’S POVI dozed off a couple of times as we wove in and out of the streets. I felt drained, and my legs ached, but at least I was sitting comfortably in a car halfway through the city instead of being locked behind bars. I wasn't completely safe now, heck, I wasn't safe at all, but at least this was something. As long as I could evade the police, I was safe. I wondered how long it would take them to realize I wasn't anywhere near and then alert police in the other districts, who would then spread their radar to other cities. That would be a process, and hopefully, it would be long enough for me to be safely hidden in the heart of wherever I was headed.That was what bothered me the most. Where was I headed? I had no idea. All I knew was I had to leave that city. But after that, then what? Where would I go? I knew no one else; the only family member I had was my stepmother, and she would not offer me a helping hand. I could already see the glee on her face as she handed me over
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 48: THE TRUTH IN DAZZLING LIGHTS
AUTHOR’S POV“So apparently, we have a lead,” Axel informed his brothers. He had just successfully arranged with that man an outrageously massive sum for him to bring Katie to them. He almost laughed at the excitement in the man's voice when the arrangement was concluded, and he had to be a fool to think that he would go through with his part of it.He thought he was at an advantage because he had Katie. Well, it was easy enough to take her and send him on his way empty-handed. There was nothing he could use to hold him to fulfil his part after all. If he chose to kill her instead of handing her over, then he had no problem with that. That was one less problem to solve.“A lead?“ Hunter asked, “Does anyone know where she is?““Not just where she is but where she's headed. He's driving her to Charleston.” He dropped, a grin playing on his face.Blaze felt impressed. Katie was a woman of big dreams, it seemed. Did Katie think she could get that far so soon without them finding her? And
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 49: BILL!!
AUTHOR’S POVBill's door was unlocked so Blaze didn't bother knocking. Fuck good manners, he was in a really bad state of mind already. If Bill wanted his visitors to knock, he should learn to keep his door locked.The minute he stepped in, hands grabbed him and his arms were pinned behind him. He lets out a groan, Bill still hadn't stopped this annoying way of first making the people who stepped into his house feel threatened. Well he didn't feel threatened, he was already used to it to some extent. After all he was never hurt. He wondered if there were any who had been hurt by this silliness.“You don't need to be so rough” He muttered struggling slightly against the man behind him.“The once in a life time experience to handle the revered Blaze Griffin like this, you can be sure I'll make the most of it.“ The man's breath was landing on his ear and it made Blaze wince. The smell of cigarettes and alcohol filling his nostril.“I heard that Seven.“ A man appeared at the top of the st
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 50: STAB THE STABBER
AUTHOR’S POVThe silence in the air thickened as Blaze’s blood boiled.He certainly wouldn't put it past him, and this man was as greedy as Scrooge. He would do anything to get more power than he already did. Over the years, Bill had had to do different dangerous things to attain power—things that were all a darker shade of Black and sometimes Red.Bill's eyebrows creased, and he leaned back, surprised by the sudden outburst. He had thought Blaze would be pleased to know he wasn't asking for much, and he was a little amazed to see that he wasn't.“What am I supposed to know about both of you?“ Bill questioned, his eyes trailing over Blaze’s face as he attempted to read his expression.“What you said tells me you know something more than others.“ Blaze continued, not wanting to reveal too much in case he was wrong.The man on the phone…Could it be Bill? Was that why he had a grin on? Even right now.Bill could tell that his client had something to hide. Now, it was left for him to ste
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 51: WHEN MR LUCK SHOWS UP
KATIE’S POVAs my thumb slid over my phone, my eyes ran through various things people were saying in the online space. I had hoped the news would have eased up by now, but I had no such luck. If possible, more people were talking about me unliving Maverick. And it made me wonder why the news was yet to die down. Was it because Maverick was an influential man or because people just liked to blow up gossip? A little of both, I guess. Sighing, I turned my data off. I still felt a little sceptical about using my phone, and it was a terrible feeling not knowing if I could be tracked by it or not. To be on the safe side, I had avoided using it since, but now I just needed to know what was going on. And, of course, I hadn't found anything comforting.I slipped it into my purse. My luggage was still packed. I had only taken out some essential things and a new change of clothes when I got up this morning. Now I was dressed in a dark blue maxi gown, my head wrapped with a blue vintage scarf
My Stepson Is a Bully CHAPTER 52: LUCK IS MY MAN
KATIE’S POVMy phone vibrated, and I pulled it out hurriedly. I was already expecting a call from Doris.“Doris,” I whispered, tilting my head a little and doing a rather lousy work of acting like a regular civilian who wasn't running away from the law.“Listen, Katie,” Doris immediately went to the point as though she had little time. “A friend of mine is already at the airport waiting for you. He's standing beside a silver sedan, and when you meet him, I want you to tell him this.” She whispered a code, and I wrote it down on the hem of my dress.Not that I even had to write it since, at this moment in my life, I could hardly forget important details like this.“From there, you will be given everything you need to escape,” Doris continued. “I believe in you, Katie.”I wiped off the tears that had gathered in my eyes. I shouldn't draw attention to myself like this, but I couldn't help feeling emotional.Deep down, I knew I did nothing to deserve Doris' good deed. She was just about t
