Chapter 119 Janet I let the phone ring off. “What is going on?” Gina asked. “Long crazy story.” I sighed. “Kevin isn’t the father of Rita’s baby.” “What? Who is?” “Jason. He set Kevin up, and also arranged with Rita to attack me. He and Rita have been working together all along.” Gina stared. “Okay, I am confused.” I told her to the whole story. She continued to stare at me open mouthed. “What the….? Wait, wait, wait. Tell me you are joking, or lying. Jason? And Rita? How the hell is that even possible? Are you sure about this?” “I am. I heard them myself. I probably won’t believe it if I had been told.” “I don’t even know what to say. Why would he do such a thing? I thought he liked you?” “He hates Kevin more, and he is a psycho.” “I can’t believe this! What are you going to do? Now you know what they are planning next.” “We are going to set up a plan to catch them and make them pay. We are already working on it.” I said. Gina looked dazed. “In the mea
Chapter 120 Kevin “What the actual fuck!” Brian exclaimed. “Keep your voice down.” I told him. We were in my office. I had just come from the police station. Earlier I had met dad in his office and told him I had something important to tell him and Mom. We had driven home and I had told them my crazy story. For the first time I could remember, they were both stunned speechless. I could understand, I had been too. Mom recovered first. “Kevin? Are you sure about what you are saying?” She asked. “I am Mom. I know it is wild but it’s true. This guy Jason is nuts.” “I want the name of the clinic that carried out the DNA test. I want to know how this guy was able to switch the results and who helped him.” Dad said breathing heavily. I knew he was really mad. “Sure Dad. I will give you all the info you need.” I said. “Have you gotten the police involved? This girl needs to be in jail!” “Not yet Mom. I agree they both should be in jail, but how do we make it happen?” “
Chapter 121 Janet “How could she escape?” Dad demanded. “Calm down Dad.” I said, worrying about his blood pressure. “How can I be calm knowing that psycho is out there in this city?” “I thought she was in custody of the F.B.I? How could they let her escape?” Anna asked. “Good question,” Fran added. We were all pretty rattled after Kevin showed us the breaking news, that Claudia Rivers, a.k.a, Lois Gold, had escaped police custody. “I don’t know, I will find out more, but trust me she will be found.” Kevin promised. “What about Richards?” Dad asked. “He is still in custody.” Kevin said “Breed called you?” I asked. “Yeah, he saw the news online and felt I needed a heads up.” Kevin explained. “She may not even be in the city, she may be out of the state.” Justin said. “Wherever she runs to, we will find her.” Kevin said. “We shouldn’t allow this news to spoil our afternoon.” Justin insisted. “ I am sure she will be found and soon.” “Yeah. But I think I wil
Chapter 122 Kevin I sat in the living room impatiently looking at my watch. It was a Sunday afternoon and the weather was hot and stuffy. Being indoors with the air conditioner on full blast was like paradise on earth. Aside the weather I couldn’t have gone out even if I wanted to. I was waiting for Rita. In a few hours she would be paying for all she had done against Jan and I. I had called her the evening before after leaving Jan’s house. “So you called huh?” She asked. “ I was thinking you guys had changed your mind about wanting the baby.” “I am doing it for Jan. Left to me I don’t give a damn what you do.” I said. “So what will it be? Although since you have called me I can guess.” “I will give you five million.” I said. “Great and I thought you were serious.” “I am. Five million is fair.” “I am not negotiating. Ten million or nothing.” “That is too much.” I said pretending to be angry. “Seems I am wasting my time then,bye.” “Okay, okay. You win. Ten m
Chapter 123 Janet “You look beautiful Jan, you really do.” Jason said. “Thanks.” I smiled. “Looking at you one won’t know you have been solely in charge of a million dollar company this past few days.” “Not solely in charge, I had a lot of help.” I said. We were having lunch in my favorite outdoor café. I had called Jason the previous evening and arraigned to meet him for lunch the next day. “My dad is better than I thought,” I told him. “So let’s have lunch and catch up.” “I will love to. I was even about to call you,” he said. I know you were. I thought. We had agreed on when and where to meet. Now here we were having lunch in the near empty café, and chatting, while I waited for the time to carry out my part of the plan. I tried to concentrate on what I had to do. I had been distracted since Lois’s phone call yesterday. Dad had told the others and we had all been worried. We had called the police, who had promised to send a patrol car past our house often u
Chapter 124 Janet “Jan are you okay? How did it go?” Kevin asked anxiously “As expected. The police have taken him away. The jerk didn’t know what hit him.” He laughed. “Would have loved to see the look on his face.” “It was worth seeing. And Rita? How was she looking when the police showed up?” “Like she had been struck my lightening. Come over let me tell you all about it.” “Later. I want to see my family first. Now it's over, I think it is time to let them know what happened, before they hear it elsewhere.” “Good thinking, but you are coming over later?” “Hmmm..?” I pretended to think. “Please do. There is food in the house, we went shopping yesterday remember?” I laughed. “Sure I do. And I am guessing that is the first time you have ever gone food shopping.” “No it is not…okay maybe it is.” I laughed harder. “Glad you are laughing, even if it is at me. Please come. I have a surprise for you.” “Okay. I will.” “Good. I will see you then.” I hung up.
Chapter 125 Janet I was half hearing sirens and loud voices but my lids were so heavy, I couldn’t lift them to see what all the noise was about. After awhile, I drifted into unconsciousness and couldn’t hear anything anymore. When I finally managed to opened my eyes, I saw Kevin’s anxious face looking into mine. “Babe! Thank goodness you are awake!” He exclaimed. He touched my cheek gently. “How are you feeling?” I looked around. Where am I?” I asked. “Hospital. But you are okay, just rest.” “Hospital?” I tried to get up and felt a sharp pain in my wrist. “Relax,” He gently pushed me back onto the bed. “Just relax.” I winced. “What happened Kevin?” “You had a little accident. Nothing serious.” “An accident?” I tried to think. “It was a car coming towards me. I tried to avoid it and crashed. My phone was ringing I think-“ “That was me. I was calling to ask you something. You didn’t pick up. When I called again, I was told you had been in an accident and were bei
Chapter 126 Janet “I knew it!” Dad exclaimed. “ I knew there was something fishy about this crash. I had a feeling all along that it was no accident, but I was hoping I was wrong!” He began pacing the room. “Dad calm down.” Anna said. “Calm down? You want me to calm down when a crazy woman is after the life of the people I love? No way!” “She is bluffing.” Justin said. “Do you call this bluffing?” Dad asked pointing to me. Kevin came in. He had been working with hospital security to see if they could find out if Lois was still hanging around, or had left. “Any luck?” Dad asked. “Well I yes and no. The security took it serious. They called the cops and they spoke to the florist, who gave a description of the woman who had asked for the flowers to be delivered. Form his description, slim, blond, blue eyes, a scar on the side of her face, seems Lois is up to her old tricks. She is changing her appearance. Security went through CCTV and saw her leave immediately after ma
