Chapter 34
“Mother!”
I have
Where
me him
it happened before before he could run
“My God, you’re back.”
I hugged him and cried. tightly, she
“I will tell Mr. Sanchester.” Morris said with a smile.
I left in tears and looked to see who brought it. Someone brought him here, but I didn’t see anyone.
– cash?
Tristan’s voice came from behind. I turned around and there was a bullet.
look at him
When I heard the gunshot, I gasped and pulled Kaden to my chest. “all!!!”
Tristan screamed and grabbed my hand and took me home. closed
He quickly opened the door and looked at me. “Are you okay? How does it feel?” He’s sick?’
Tristan touched my face and asked if I was hurt.
– We like everything.
I said breathlessly. There was another shot as I tried to get Cayden out of my hands and we all scrambled to get away from the shards of glass flying off the wall.
“All down!” Tristan exclaimed. As I leaned over, I pulled Kayden to my chest and he buried his face in my neck.
“Baby, don’t worry, everything will be fine. Just close your eyes.”
I whispered as I stroked his hair. The guns did not stop, they fired and broke all the glass
Some artifacts and paintings on the floor were broken along the way.
I silently prayed that this nightmare would end soon. Things kept falling and shattering and my mind was blown as the large chandelier fell to the floor.
Cayden backed me up against the edge of the wall I was using as a shield. Why does this person want to destroy the whole house when we all want to die?
“Shit, I left my phone in the kitchen.”
Tristan cried. I saw him enter the kitchen.
“What are you doing? You could get shot.”
“I’m here to ask for help. “Tristan…”
i will be fine
He fell and I held my breath as he went.
The tears were flowing and I just hoped it would end like this. I kissed Kaiden’s head a few times to let Kaiden know I love him.
I closed my eyes and kept shooting and broke glass panels. It was far from what I thought my life would end up being.
Has the shooting stopped, ammo out or reloading? I waited a few minutes for any noise or commotion from outside but heard nothing.
I sighed in relief and laid Kayden down. He was still there, but he was confused and scared. I checked the wounds on his body, kissed his cheek and hugged him.
“good.” I whispered I stood back and looked at the ruins.
Tristan?! – Tristan!
I stood up, scooped Caden up, and jumped over all the debris in my way. I froze when I got to the restaurant. It broke my heart to see Tristan’s body immobilized on the floor.
I forgot how to breathe when I saw the blood on my right stomach and left hand. “Tristan?”
I put Kaiden down and ran over to his body to check his pulse. He was still breathing.
It was bleeding so much that I got up and ran to the kitchen to get something to stop the bleeding. I stopped with a look of horror when I saw Maurice lying on the floor covered in blood.
“Maurice?”
I reached out and felt his pulse and took a deep breath when I saw he was still breathing, but I wasn’t sure how long it would last. As soon as I saw Tristan, I grabbed his phone. Thank God it’s not broken. – Hey, come on!
I groaned when I saw it was locked.
It hit me knowing I could still make emergency calls even when my phone was locked. They called 911 and explained everything and gave me the address.
I grabbed three towels and ran to the kitchen, knelt next to his body, trying to stop the blood. I looked in the kitchen,
incomplete
with know-how
At the same time. help both
“Go outside.” Help
My eyes narrowed as my bloody hands covered his face. I looked at Kaiden, who hadn’t noticed the whole scene. I smiled not knowing what else to say. – It’s okay, dad spilled jam on his shirt.
I said smiling.
I wrapped a towel around his shot arm and put the other arm on his stomach. – cash.
He grabbed my hand holding the handkerchief and cried softly.
‘I’m here, Kaiden here. Be strong, they will come.”
I said crying.
I had to go to Morris to see the kitchen and stop the bleeding and I saw…
Tristan. He fainted slowly.
He bit his lip hard to keep the scream from his mouth. I got up, ran to the kitchen, got another towel and knelt next to Maurice.
As he tried to figure out where the blood was coming from, his hands were shaking, there were no bullets, and something fell on his head. Not knowing what to do, I cried enough to hear the siren.
I got up and ran into the living room and Tristan took Cayden’s hand but his eyes were closed. I checked her pulse again and sighed in relief when she felt something.
Paramedics raced in with stretchers and a first aid kit, one of which was quickly rushed to make sure Kayden was okay.
I gave them another body.
In the kitchen, I saw the police putting up yellow tape as one of the paramedics took me to the emergency room.
I suddenly felt dizzy and tried to shake myself but I couldn’t. A black dot filled my vision and I soon collapsed.
When I opened my eyes, I heard the ticking of that second of the clock. I blinked several times at the white ceiling before looking back at the hospital room.
When I opened my eyes, my eyes froze as I landed on the last person I expected to see. “Mother?” dry throat-Chloe!
He stood up from his chair and shouted. I looked at him
He came to me and stopped when I got the message.
“What are you doing here?”
‘I saw the news and had to meet you. I was so worried, but I know you hate me. But give me one more chance. I’m still your mother.
‘I don’t need your fake parental love. Just go, he said.
‘I love you Chloe, I know what I did was wrong. Sorry for the inconvenience. Please forgive me.”
she started crying
– I couldn’t forgive myself, I should have listened to you.
I remembered the day I accepted all the lies Tristan had told me when they kicked me out of his life. “Do you know how hard it is to be perfect? Mom, you don’t know me!”
I said with tears in my eyes. “I’m sorry, this wouldn’t have happened if I trusted you. You wouldn’t have been lying in a hospital bed or hiding your baby from the world.”
“When!”
I sat down and remembered what happened last night.
“Where is he?”
– I asked, clutching my chin. “Sanchester got her.” “What the?”
I grunted to get off the bed but he moved quickly and stopped me.
“It’s okay. I took a bath and ate.”
he said softly. I nodded and leaned back. His face was wet with tears. I lifted her hand and wiped away her tears. Maybe it’s time to forget what happened three years ago. I will not hold a grudge forever. This is right. Everything they did to me was wrong. But sometimes you have to forgive and forget the past.
I smiled at her and still loved her. Maybe not that much, but she was my mother. He tried to raise us the way he raised us, but it didn’t help me.
He hugged me and apologized non-stop. “It’s okay, mom.”
I whispered and hugged her back.
The door opened and we stepped away from each other. “Mother!”
Kaiden screamed and Nora ran to the bed and tried to get up but was unsuccessful in grabbing Nora’s hand.
has failed.
Everyone in the room laughed and mom helped her. She quickly crawled over my chest and wrapped her small arms around my neck.
“Hi sweety.”
I hugged her and kissed her cheek. “I miss you?”
I asked as I moved closer to him to relax him. He nodded angrily. -I miss you too.
I smiled and whispered. “Chloe”.
I turned to Sanchester and Nana avoided my gaze while Nora smiled at me. “How are you feeling?”
asked Mrs. Sanchester as she approached. “good”.
I said calmly without looking at him.
“I’m really sorry”
“Nothing.” I said I was tired of apologizing. Every time they apologize, I think more about what happened three years ago.
– What about Tristan?
Ask a question and prepare an answer. “It’s okay, I just woke up.” “And Maurice?”
No one answered and everyone looked sad. “What happens?”
“He is in critical condition and on artificial respiration.”
“Did the police catch the suspect?” “Unfortunately.”
said the mother. “But we’re sure we’ll catch this monster.”
– said Nana from behind. He gave me a sad smile. “I need to talk to Tristan, what room is this?”
“Room 35”.
Nora answered quickly. “I’ll be with him.”
Nora came and got Kayden and when he started crying she called him and tried to pick him up. He grabbed her and stopped twisting in her arms.
I went down slowly. I was wearing baggy pants and a top, not a hospital gown. I walked out of the room without anyone paying attention to me and they all tried to talk to Kaiden.
I followed a large hall
We were looking for room 35. It was four steps from my room.
I knocked softly before opening the door and Tristan tilted his head to look at me. – cash.
He smiled softly as I lay down.
I sat on the chair next to the bed, she was naked from the waist down, her stomach was bandaged, and her forearm was also bandaged. “How are you feeling?”
“I’m glad everyone is alive now.”
“Well, I warned you.” You didn’t even go to the kitchen.
He smiled softly. ‘It’s funny? What if I die? – I screamed. – But I’m alive.
“Yes, but you never…”
‘Cathy, it’s okay. Everything is important.”
“If you had stayed, you wouldn’t have been shot.”
“Still worth a try, so stop talking.”
He touched my hand on the bed. It was cold to the touch. “Even if you still think about me, you don’t know how I feel.”
He said he never took his eyes off my face.
“Well you’re the father of my child and I can’t hate you forever.”
I said looking into his sharp blue eyes. “The right side”.
– he muttered and let go of my hand. “Thank you for the opportunity.”
“Becoming a Dad Again.”
He added that he seemed to know what was going on in my head. “Why not, I’m already bad at parenting.”
‘Not. You were a wonderful mother.
I held back my laughter and we all knew it was a lie. He tried to get comfortable in the bed, but it was tight.
“Should I call for help?” I was scared. “No, please help me arrange the pillow.” “Oh good.”
I stood up, slowly moved the pillow and leaned against his body.
“You like this?”
I asked, looking at his face an inch away from me. He stared silently at a spot on my temple, moving his hand to follow the small gash I cut the other night.
– I’m fine, Tristan.
I said as I watched his jaw set. “Tristan”.
As he continued to cut with his thumb, he called and said nothing.
“success”
“You deserve to be happy, Cassie.” I can never be a nice person. I’m back, your life is already a mess and I tried to avoid you but I couldn’t.”
“OK. I hope you and your family never come back.”
To be honest, he was quiet for a while.
“Are you comfortable?” I asked him to gently move the pillow to the center. “I haven’t stopped loving you, I still love you, Cassie.”
he said suddenly.
I didn’t know what to say. Mouth open and closed and speechless.
“If you hate me, I deserve it.”
He combed my young hair back and his intense gaze almost reached my soul. Why did I have to say that? My heart is not ready and my heart is not ready. His hand wrapped around my neck and as our lips opened the door he gently pulled me to his lips.
We both turned to the door and Detective Emily and Detective Clooney smiled at us. – Excuse me. Should I come back later? he asked.
– No, everything is fine.
he told me to leave “thanks.”
Detective Clooney said as they entered.
“Hello, Mr. Sanchester?”
“Did you find the person behind this?”
Instead, Tristan said. “I’m still doing my best. I checked your house CCTV. It didn’t help much because the man was wearing a full body mask.”
– Honestly, someone took my son and tried to kill us, don’t you know about this monster?
I almost screamed.
“Will do everything possible. Miss Simpson, can you tell me exactly what happened last night?
I nodded and gave them all the details. – And Ryan?
I asked. “Who is Ryan?” Tristan asked.
“It’s a long story.” I told him “We’re still investigating, ma’am.”
Simpson.”
They promised to keep digging before they left.
I went with them to avoid awkward moments with Tristan. It’s been three days since the detectives arrived. I was discharged but Tristan was still in the hospital. I visited Morris every day and so did his family.
It was Tuesday and I arrived at Tristan’s with Kayden. I’ve been here for about an hour and Kayden
Sleeping next to Tristan in bed.
Detective Emily and Detective James visited the party. I hoped they would bring good news.
“I’m sorry, but he’s not. We investigated him and found nothing to lead him to believe he was behind the attack.”
I buried my face in my hands. Who would I be without Ryan? ‘But we have an idea for someone. We’re doing some research to find out, but I have a feeling it’s him.”
“who is he?”
I sat down and asked.
“Do you know who called, Gray Ashton?”
what the? “Does anyone know Gray Ashton’s name?”
I couldn’t answer his question. What does gray have to do with it? He didn’t even know about Cayden.
“Miss Simpson?”
Detective Emily snapped her finger.
For me. “It’s her ex-boyfriend.”
Tristan said before I could open my mouth.
– Hmm… that’s interesting. Are you two fighting somehow?
“Not!
That’s what we’re good at.
Good man.” Friends. believe me, this
Beside him came Tristan’s taunting noise.
Gray told them. I know about Kayden, I said
“really?”
Detective Emily shared a pleasant glance with her partner.
“I don’t even know how Gray got fat?”
in the picture?”
‘I asked all your friends and he triggered something. His alibi makes no sense. We don’t know what he’s hiding, but we can be sure we have something for him and he’s currently in custody.”
“Got it? Gray’s in jail?’
“Yes, until the investigation is over. You’ll be amazed at what we’ve found so far.”
He whispered his last words.
‘What are you talking about? There must have been a mistake somewhere.”
‘I will leave now and explain everything after the investigation is over. have a nice day.”
He smiled at me and left with Detective Clooney.
“Can you trust them?” They consider themselves gray.
They tried to kill us.”
I laughed and said without joking.
I turned to Tristan and saw that his eyes were closed and that he was sleeping. I groaned and sat down in the chair. Why did Gray want to kill me? Or did he kidnap Kaiden? ‘I won’t be surprised if you get out.
to be him.”
I heard Tristan’s voice and turned to him, but his eyes were still closed.
– It’s not him. I’m sure you will release him after the investigation is over.
He turned around without saying anything.
He pushed Kayden away from me
closer to him. He smiled at Kaiden’s small body as he moved closer to Tristan, Tristan.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
He lifted his head to make room for Cayden’s head.
I exhaled, looked at my usual nails and asked all my friends. Veena was still angry with me and I waited until she heard about the attack and came to me, but she didn’t.
I picked up my phone, dialed her line and waited for her to send me to voicemail, but she answered the call. “Okay?”
I sat up straight and he said nothing. He probably didn’t know he was calling. – Bina, are you there? “What room are you in?”
he asked with an annoyed sigh. “the room? are you in hospital
“Why would I ask again, idiot?” Well, he’s still mad at me.
“35, second floor. with you…”
He hung up before I could finish my last words.
“Will Vixen come?”
Tristan asked, not in a happy tone, but he was sure Adrien had told him about Vina. – Yes, I advise you not to call him when he is here.
“He hates me.”
– He spoke and turned to me.
