Alex picks it up immediately and presses the phone to his ear. "Hello Detective? Please tell me you have something for me once again."His sounded relieved on the phone. "Yes, Mr Alex. She's just left the state for New York. We tracked her card movement and she's in New York truly. We were able to reach her..."Alex's heart jumps in joy. "She spoke to you?""Yes, she did. She told us not to worry about her and to tell you the same thing that she's doing pretty good in New York. Nothing is wrong over there and that she got a job there.""Oh." Alex sounded disappointed but then he masks it immediately. "I'm sorry for bothering you then Detective.""It's fine, I was getting a little bored at that desk anyway. I'll turn in for the day, have a great ni... Oh, it's morning already. Guess I worked all night."Alex chuckles at his weirdness and him rambling to himself. "How about I make up to you for the night I kept you up for? Let me please buy you dinner sometime."He pauses on the other e

(Back to the Past.)Very early in the wee hours of the morning, Lucas wakes up in the chair and sees that he's been tied up with a long rope.It doesn't take him long to see that it's a joint of long ties that seemed terribly familiar and also that he's been locked in what used to be his own former room before he moved out to start his own life, away from home.He fiddles with the ties with his tied hands as well and sees that they were tied quite well and he can't even figure out where the actual final knot is since there are knots after every single tie.He gives up in about thirty minutes of struggling to find and lose any of the knots at all but he doesn't succeed.He leans back in the chair and takes a deep breath of his own room. It's stopped smelling like it used to, it used to smell of mint leaves, oh how we loved that scent and never stopped buying the scented automatic freshener that always kept his room sprayed.He turns his chair laboriously to look at the windows and sees

While doing rounds through the mall,. Mikayla along with other relevant executives and Danielle, her secretary are doing the daily checks to know which of the shops earn well and those that don't so they can be on their way."What about Hermes?" Mika asks as they approach the shop."It's earns better than a dozen of others.""Hm. What's their average weekly income?" She asks Danielle who checks the iPad in her hands."It's about four hundred and forty thousand dollars.""Okay, that's fine."As they walk on, Mikayla notices a woman behind them.She turns to look and she branches away, into another shop.Mikayla whispers to Danielle. "Make sure security keeps an eye on that woman, she's been following us a while now."Danielle nods as she leaves the crowd to go do what she's been asked to do."You all can go, I want to stop by somewhere."All the executives behind her all nods and excuse themselves to go do some other activities as well and she walks forward.She stops in front of the S

Mika holds out the chair for the young girl to sit in.Angela sits and removes the cap, letting her deep brown hair falls around her shoulders as she looks around the office, curiosly taking it all in."How are you?" Mika asks first, watching her as she retains her composure."Fine ma'am. Thank you for meeting ma."Mika laughs lightly. "I would meet you in a heartbeat. Your mum told me all about you then, even showed me pictures of you." Mika smiles, nostalgic. "How is she now?"The girl looks down at her laps. "She's dead." She replies, her voice soft and emotional.Mika crosses over to her side of the table and puts a comforting hand on Angela's shoulder. "I'm so sorry to hear that. When did this happen?"She sniffles. "Last week Monday."Same time that the Anderson's had decided to swap husbands."Naturally?" "No. She was pushed into the mouth of a moving vehicle and it..." She's unable to finish the sentence and fully burst into tears. Mika hugs her neck from the back and pats he

Lily steps out of the police station and shields her eyes from the blinding sun that she hasn't seen for the last two days.In detention, waiting for the officer to come get her every two or three hours for exhaustive interrogations that she had always said the same thing over and over in. Thankfully, her parents had sent her a lawyer on the first day and he had let her know that no matter how much they question her, no matter how much pressure they put on her, they can't retain her for more than forty eight hours, that's two days, they can't keep her locked up for more than two days without finding some conclusive evidence with which they can charge her to court.And she had banked on that kept to her story...He had been an abuser of women, who had beat her so much that she's got those purple scars all over her body. They had asked about the previous scars since all the ones there seemed to be newly gotten and she'd said he really gives her scars only when deals don't come through,

Thankfully, the taxi drops her right off at the specific estate location and she gets off. There's even a bit of spare change left and in her good mood, she leaves it to the taxi driver to keep as a tip which he half heartedly thanks her for before driving away.She walks into the estate since just not any car can drive in there. Even when she'd come along with Price in the past, they'd had to go through some inspections before they were let in but by now she's already a familiar face and she walks right past the security posts."We heard about your husband ma'am, we're sorry to hear it." One of the security men consoles her as she opens the pedestrian gate for her to walk through."Thank you very much. It hurts so much and then to be detained for two days again. I feel so bad right now.""It was most likely a misunderstanding and it's usually like that in most spouse marriages you know? It must have just been a useless suspicion. You don't look like someone who'd hurt a fly."She chu

She walks past the first check point and sighs... Thankfully for her, she finds a taxi in a short while and enters into it.She describes her house... The one she lived in with Price and there it took her.As soon as they arrive, she exits the taxi and tells him to wait that she'll quickly grab her phone and make a transfer of her payment. The taxi man nods and turns off his engine and watches her go inside.She closes the main gate behind her and she sighs. The whole place has been cleared out, no single soul in sight. Different foot prints on the ground, so many wastes left behind by all the detectives and reporters and even the staff of the estate is gone.She walks in and grabs her phone which had been left in the room upstairs since the past two days. She chooses to not check anything yet and attend to the man waiting for her downstairs first which she does.As soon as he drives off, she goes back inside.Right there in the living room, the yellow and black bright tapes of the fa

A small sound in the room startles Stella and she wakes up immediately, and looks around.The bright digital clock beside her on the bedside table is showing the time to be two fifteen in the morning. She looks to her other side and it's empty.Her eyes slowly adjust to the darkness and she can make out Reese walking around, pacing around in the room."Reese?" She calls out, wiping her eyes, wondering the reason for his distress and restless walking around so early in the morning.Hearing his name startles him and he looks at her. "Oh, sorry. Did I wake you?""I guess. Why are you not asleep? Walking around like that.""I'm fine. I just can't seem to sleep, that's all. You can go back to sleep. Don't mind me.""How can I sleep when you can't?" She pushes back her blanket and makes to stand up but his steely voice stops her right there."I said you should go back to sleep." He says, his eyes trained on her.Slowly, she puts her legs right back under the blanket and covers herself, watc

Mr L. Santinello, I've Got Your Kids! Epilogue.
"Do you, Bethany Mikayla Callaghan, take this man, Lucas Pierce Santinello to be your husband?" "I do." Her crisp voice shouts in the beautiful wheat field where the wedding is being held. "Do you, Lucas Pierce Santinello, take this woman, Bethany Mikayla Callaghan to be your wife?" "I DO!" He yells even louder, looking handsome in his new haircut and tailored Italian suit. "This two are now pronounced husband and wife." "You're now fully mine, CEO of Mi-nello Group." Bethany laughs. "See a whole Conglomerate CEO talking to a small person like me." "Ooh, I plan to show you tonight that you're not small and neither am I." She laughs. "You naughty man." She whispers as she leans in for a kiss. Amidst the whoops and holler, Lucas kisses his wife on the lips, causing there to be a ripple of jealousy in the crowd. Both Miles and Maya comes forward to hug their parents and pose for a family picture. Lucas picks up Maya while Mikayla picks up Miles, all beaming at the camera, the f
Mr L. Santinello, I've Got Your Kids! Final Retribution.
Of course, after dramatically disrupting the ongoing funeral, Grey, Smith and a couple other officers walk to the front of the coffin."Sorry to disrupt this perfectly ongoing funeral of a woman who committed suicide..."The whispers begin. They had been told she died in her sleep after all."Mr Reese Anderson, you're under arrest for the murder of Ronald and Minta Callaghan and Price Woods, your daughter's late husband."The entire hall is thrown into intense chatter and chaos.For the first time in days, Lily's eyes regains focus. "What?"Grey turns to look at her. "You knew your father killed your husband and yet you protected him. You're also under arrest for aiding and abetting murder.""Who is Ronald and Minta Callaghan?" Lily asks, completely ignoring the words of the officer of her own arrest."The parents of Bethany Callaghan who we all know to be Mikayla Anderson."That's the final straw."I killed Mum... I killed Mum... I killed Mum..." Lily begins to mutter again, throwin
Mr L. Santinello, I've Got Your Kids! Home.
The same time, Lucas pays the taxi driver, gun securely in his back and Mikayla in his side.He holds her hands and since it's his house, he's able to know the nook and cranny of the house, including places where you can get in without being spotted by any cameras.He leads them to the side where there is a doggie fence. "I'm sorry." He whispers to Mikayla as they both have to crouch to pass through the place.Mikayla shoots him a smile and a thumbs up as she comes out after him.He holds her hand once again, and as slowly and as stealthily as possible, they make their way to the back door which serves as their entrance into the house.As soon as the door clicks shut behind them, they both sigh in relief.Just then, the lights turn on and they are standing right in the middle of the kitchen, lights shining down on them.The man who gets them immediately yells and pulls out a gun. "Down!" He yells and they comply. He is joined by two other men and they drag them out to living room whe
Mr L. Santinello, I've Got Your Kids! Reassurances and Ramblings
Lucas and Mikayla are laying flat on the ground, late at night with different cars speeding by, watching and peeking out at the scene with every one of them having something to say in one way or the other.Outside the car, the listening bug should hit be able to do much so when a police car arrives on the scene and out comes Grey, Lucas sighs in relief, happy that the officer had received his message in time and had come to help him out."Sir!" The patrol officers salute their higher subordinate."At ease. Can you release them? They are currently on a mission.""What?" The patrol officers look at one another in confusion. "There is a body in the car.""And if it's not a body?" Grey asks, stepping forward and using his higher up voice."Uhm..." The officer is at loss of words. "Well, it looks exactly like a body.""Well, let me tell you something. They don't want the help of the police as it may jeopardize the lives of their children. The children were kidnapped from school earlier tod

Mikayla begins to shiver in the cool weather.Lucas stands outside, a look of immense fury on his face from what Logan is asking him to do. He grabs his phone and dials Logan who picks up on the second ring."Do you like what the package looks like? Cute, isn't it?"Lucas, seething... "What the fuck are you asking me to do? Tie up another loose end for you? What do you want from me exactly? Stop tormenting I and my woman and my family and just tell me what you're after.""This is cute but you're forgetting that I am your family too? Anyway, I do want something from you but it's extent is what I'm yet to decide on. You can start by disposing off the body first. Maybe when you finish this mission, just maybe, I might have my request ready.""So you mean this is not the fucking end of it?""Depends on how you act and what you're doing now is making me think of murdering someone else, maybe your daughter since she looks the most scared here. I'm waiting to see the body at the bottom of th
Mr L. Santinello, I've Got Your Kids! Mission Number One
The day before, Lucas and Mikayla had left the school around six pm that evening, driving off in the direction of the apartment where Lucas had met him just four days earlier.Their meeting had not ended well then, and it does not look like it will now.Lucas receives a text message from his number, Logan. He pulls up by the sidewalk to check it."If you think you will find me at the same location as the other times, you're kidding yourselves. I told you clearly, you do what I ask you to do or you're in deep shit. You'll never see your precious children again. You'll receive the first directions in a little bit. I want you to keep going to the apartment though, your first mission is over there."Lucas punches the steering wheel, startling Mikayla a bit, her nerves are still frayed, getting so worried about her children and even worse, they are still in the hands of a maniac that no one knows where they are.Cursing under his breath, he starts the car once again and the journey continu
Mr L. Santinello, I've Got Your Kids! The Day of Retribution is Tomorrow.
About to head out of the cafe, Grey pays for the coffee both men had taken with his card.Stepping outside, he inhales the crisp cool air and sighs.His phone ringing distracts him from the search of his keys and he sees the caller to be Smith."Hello Smith? Can I help you tonight?""Where are you right now?""I had a meeting with Mr Santinello and I am heading off to my bed. Do you have something for me?""Certainly. Can you drop by the office before heading home?"Grey groans. "I hope for your own sake that it is something worth my time, if not, you'll spend the whole remainder of this week in the holding cell and I mean it."Smith laughs. "Sure then. Just come on over first."Grumbling, groaning, tired, weary, weak, sleepy... All of the states of mind Grey experiences before appearing at the office. He slouches up the stairs to the office where he meets Smith bending over a computer."What do you have for me?""Before I show you, I did it to show that I did not take my job as a jok
Mr L. Santinello, I've Got Your Kids! The Missing Duo.
Mikayla rushes into her car and drives off in the direction of the school, running late after a meeting, just barely ten minutes after the original closing time, she finally parks there.Not seeing any of the twins where she usually picks them up and wait for her no matter what, not even their bags to indicate that they probably just went to use the toilet, she gets down from the car and looks around to no avail.She locks up the car and walks over to the classes but it's empty, even down to the teachers, there is no one in sight that can be of help so she leaves for the school's administration building.She's immediately directed to the Dean who receives her warmly."Good afternoon ma'am. I hope all is well? Considering that you didn't call ahead to inform us about your coming.""I'm sorry as well but I ran a bit behind in picking the children up. I'm here now but I can't seem to find them.""I'm pretty sure they left the classes as soon as the school closed. You know what, children
Mr L. Santinello, I've Got Your Kids! Bethany Callaghan is Mikayla Anderson!
"It's after school time. Come on, Mum is coming to pick us up." Mikes iterates as he slings his small backpack over his back and carries the lunch bag in his hands.Maya does the same thing, grabbing her back and lunch bag as well as the two of them walk in tow to where Mikayla usually showed up to pick them up, almost immediately after school.Just as they arruved, a black SUV parks in front of them.Both of them walk to the car, waiting for Mika to come out and give them hugs as she always does before tucking then in and putting their seat belts on before leaving but this time, a tall man comes out.Miles immediately steps back, standing in front of Maya to protect her... Or something like that."Hi Miles and Maya. I am Ben. Mikayla sent me to pick you up.""No. We won't go with you." Miles replies immediately.The man laughs, removing his sunglasses to reveal brown, almost friendly eyes. "Mika told me that you will say the same thing and that when you do, I should show you this."
