Chapter 26
Christavo walked into the office. An officer immediately walked up to him with a photo. “Analysis of the tire tracks say the car has to be some exotic sports car. New, specially made Michelin tires made for the Bugatti Chiron—only tire made for that model car.”
“Wow, that’s great work. Do we have the purchaser's name or anything?” Christavo asked, looking at the picture of the car. She handed him another folder. The name of the purchaser was Damien Withers. Christavo looked confused, expecting the name to read Chris Sanders. “Who is this kid?”
The officer shrugged. “Some young kid apparently into cars. He entered into a car show coming up in a couple of days. We ran his background and he doesn’t have much on his record. His parents seem to be anonymous. We have to do some more research on that, but he was just an orphan, out of state. We do have the last address he got the ti
Chapter 27Jason saw his twin try and look happy about this date with Antonio. She dressed up not wanting the pending danger to stop her from what was important. The explosion had her shaken up which caused the need to tell Antonio the truth. Her hand was placed over her stomach as she looked at him while she gathered items.“Wow! Someone is ready for her date. Look at you.” Jason complimented, trying to cheer her up. Jayceon walked over to her wanting to be picked up by his aunt. She obliged him and kissed his cheeks, wiping off the smear marks afterward.“Well, thank you both. I wanted to dress up to tell Antonio the news.” She placed Jayceon back down. “I’m sure Alyssa told you.”Jason smiled, knowing she did already. Out of pure excitement, she couldn’t help but tell her husband which Janet was completely okay with. She knew her brother wouldn’t tell anyone else. “She did tel
Chapter 28Janet and Antonio laid together spent and satisfied as they panted while Antonio held Janet close to his body. Their sex seemed to be super intense feeling the flutters of her now carrying his child maybe children inside of her. It was sexy and erotic. Janet’s body was far more sensitive than she imagined.They talked about the past. Janet told Antonio about Dan’s past and Chris’s past, their hardships, and now the newfound information about the sister, Myra Sanders. She also bounced the idea of counseling off of him.“How the hell are you and Jason going to get Dan to go to counseling? I don’t even know the man, but I know for a fact he would never go to a therapist or counseling. It would take some pretty set of legs to get him to talk openly.”Janet turned around looking at Antonio as he looked confused. She was smiling. “You’r
Chapter 29While his family carried on about their lives, trying not to let Chris Sanders ruin the time they had, Dan obsessed over finding him. It was a good thing. At least his family was as carefree as they were to go about their day, scared shitless, but determined not to allow their uncle to torment them. It was admirable, but not Dan. They shouldn’t have to worry anyway, not when he was on the case. Dan’s determination for revenge outweighed anything else on the agenda.His first move was to go back to the Sweet Sweepers. He thought long and hard about the things that the police wouldn’t be able to figure out. The other way to cutting a man’s pride is through his money. Gerald was supplying Chris money, for sure. But any smart man wouldn’t just rely on the investment alone.Dan put himself in Chris’s shoes. He got out of jail desperate for money, used Gerald's hate against him to manipulate Gerald into h
Chapter 30Jason, Alyssa, Janet, and Antonio walked into the car show cautiously with Jayceon in the stroller, looking amazed and clapping at every car he saw. It warmed Jason to the core to see his son so happy looking at all the cars. Alyssa bought him a toy car to play with while he strolled through the aisles looking at the cars. He looked over at his sister holding Antonio’s hand as they walked together. It was the weekend and they all wanted to double date since things with Chris Sanders had died down. They could unwind with the sunglasses on and hats to disguise themselves, keeping unwanted attention away.Jason looked around for the kid who invited him, hoping to see his car again and introduce him to his family. The many sports cars there aroused his fancy as he pushed Jayceon over to view them up close. Antonio walked over with them, leaving the girls behind.“Jason and Jayceon seem to love this a little too much I think,&r
Chapter 31 Jason and Antonio found the kid Jason was looking for. His car had been cleaned. He stopped talking to a passerby when he noticed Jason with a smile. He walked over so excited to see him as he looked down at Jayceon. “Hey, you came. I didn’t think you would remember.” He greeted, shaking Jason’s hand and then Antonio’s. He stooped to Jayceon. “Hey, lil guy. High five.” He held his hand up for Jayceon to place his palm in his and he did slap his hand as he laughed which caused the kid to smile. “This is a really nice car,” Antonio replied, now getting flashes of the car that drove away from the lake house. His eyes looked suspiciously to the kid. “Where did you get a car like this?”&
Chapter 32“So that kid was at the funeral and that car was used by Chris. And this was at the hospital the same day Dan was poisoned.” Jason sat in the back seat with Alyssa and Jayceon, shocked and confused as to what it all meant.“Julissa told me Christavo got a match for the car and ran out. Can you call him and see what he has found out?” He asked Janet in the front seat. She nodded and pulled out her phone dialing Christavo’s number. The phone went straight to voicemail so she tried again. Same result. Which caused Janet to worry.“He didn’t answer. I will try later.” She replied.“How did Julissa know about him finding a match for the car?” Alyssa asked, causing Antonio to sigh.“She’s fucking him now, apparently. He called me to tell me we were right about everything, so far, and that he was stopping by to counsel Julissa. I’m assuming he found Gerald’s b
Chapter 33Jason and Janet walked into Dan’s home, very cautiously, using their key as the house was eerily quiet. Janet was the first to move through once they realized Dan was in his office. Flashes of the night that Fairchild was there were etched into her mind. She hadn’t stopped shaking from her meeting with Chris, but now, being back in the same house that started all of this was maddening.“Janet, Jason, it has been a while since you both have come to visit me.” Dan was the first to speak as they walked up to the open door. They were a bit quiet. “I assume you both have something important to tell me.”It was just like Dan to know them better than they knew themselves. Despite their anger for him, despite time and time again of them putting themselves in danger, they would always come back to him. He always had the answers. Once they admitted that to themselves, they would be better off.“W
Chapter 34Julissa’s leg bounced up and down as she waited at the police station for someone to locate Christavo. No one would tell her anything as far as the case he was working on and honestly she hoped he wouldn’t be in any trouble for her being there. But she couldn’t stay at home anymore, not with her feelings and, definitely, not with the silence. She was as alone in the house as she was on the inside. She didn’t even bother texting nor calling Antonio. He reached out to her a couple of times, but she didn’t even bother to text back.He made his choice so now it was, for sure, time for her to move on and get her life back together. Regardless, she was having his baby he didn’t have to be in her life now. She wanted him to be, but every ounce of her told her to just let him go—even as friends. He wanted Janet and that was that.She stood anxiously as a police officer walked by her with folders in his hands. &ldquo
