Chapter 35
Julissa stayed quiet all the way to her house where Antonio and Janet followed her to make sure she got home. Why Antonio was acting as if he cared so much, she would never understand or accept it. They walked in with her as she went straight for the fridge to pop open some sparkling water for them.
“I don’t know what’s so important that you couldn’t wait to tell me later,” Julissa complained. “I would prefer to be alone. Thank you.”
“No, you don’t Julissa. That’s why you went seeking Christavo. It wasn’t just for information. You needed attention. And because I was with Janet, you went to the next person available.” Antonio busted her out as she looked stunned at his accuracy. “I know you, Julissa. Regardless of what you think, I do know you.”
Julissa scoffed after taking a sip of her sparkling water. “Could’ve fooled the hell out o
Chapter 36Antonio woke from the sound of his phone ringing across the room. At first, he was just going to allow it to go to voicemail. He was comfortable laying on the edge of the bed with two naked beautiful women. There was no way in hell he was going to get up from that bed. His sexual fantasies had been fulfilled all night and he was truly a tired, happy man.Janet woke before Julissa. She looked up, her hair falling on her face. She looked well sexed and flustered with satisfaction. She smiled at Julissa sleeping peacefully and seeing him look at her. They truly made love to each other last night and for the first time, Janet could enjoy the threesome to the fullest. It was an experience for all of them.“Well, good morning sexy.” She whispered to him. The sound of the phone going off again made her turn to where his pants were on the floor. Antonio sighed, frustrated, and laid his head back into the pillows. “You not going to answer i
Chapter 37 Damien walked into the dealer’s lot looking for the new model car that was advertised to him for winning the car show. He was excited and he couldn’t wait to tell his uncle what he had won. A fresh new car to add to his collection was fairly exciting for him. He was young and having two expensive sports cars under his belt was an accomplishment. He walked over to the car to see someone already looking at it, with his back turned. “Hey…are you…” The man turned in a nice dress shirt and slacks, looking business-like. His eyes read recognition and he knew who he was instantly. The fear in his posture showed slightly, but the anger was the emotion that reached his eyes first. “What do you want?” “A chance to finally meet my son, Damien.
Chapter 38Jason and Janet sat at the restaurant with their drinks, which they were going to need for certain. Janet had a glass of sparkling water while Jason had some whiskey. They were both nervous and beyond pissed that they had to do what they were doing, having a conversation with Christopher Sanders when all they wanted to do was murder the man. It was a favor for Antonio. He found his house and needed to find Christavo Tate. Therefore, he needed Chris out of the house long enough for him to search without interruptions. It made sense. He couldn’t just knock on the door knowing Chris knew who he was. He couldn’t take any chances.Dan was entertaining Damien for a few hours, in the meantime. The house would be empty enough for him to explore. A message appeared on her phone as she saw Julissa’s text warning her to be careful and if she needed anything to call her. It
Chapter 39Meanwhile, during Jason and Janet’s estranged dinner, Antonio and Michael entered Christopher’s home. Michael was filled in on everything regarding Christavo’s disappearance and that this was his last location. He didn’t tell him, however, that he already knew Christopher was the suspect they were looking for. He needed more evidence to lock him away and connect him to Fairchild, Bianca, and the maid from Sweet Sweepers, and then the rest concerning Gerald would fall right into place. It was going to be a daunting task explaining why he didn’t come forward with everything that was happening, but he had some plans up his sleeve. “Stay on coms, but let’s split up and cover more ground. You take the west and I will take the east wing of the house.” Antonio whispered to Michael who only nodded and went left while he went right.&nb
Chapter 40 Meanwhile back at the dinner, Jason held on to his sister as Janet balled her eyes out begging Chris to not harm Antonio or Michael. Her pleas, however, were gone unnoticed as the atmosphere in the room changed once again. Jason’s eyes opened wider than he thought possible as he saw his father walk in very calmly and cool-headed. Chris was just about to take another sip of his drink when he smirked as Dan's presence was now known. “Daniel how nice of you to join us. Please take a…” before he could say anymore Dan lunged for him and pushed his arm in Chris’s neck as Chris held his arms. “What are you doing to my children?” Dan asked angrily. Janet looked up hearing her father's voice as she jerked away from Jason’s arms.
Chapter 41Julissa rushed into the hospital at Janet’s call. Her heart pounded thinking of Antonio getting hurt on the job, more so him being harmed by Chris Sanders. She saw the man shoot her father and get away scot-free as if he wasn’t truly a person. If he could do that to a man on his team, what sort of things would he do to a man who wasn’t? She didn’t want to know that answer.“Is he alright?” She stormed in asking a host of questions, but all seemed to be extremely quiet as Rock stood there with his arms folded. Dan sat in the chair legs folded, glaring at Rock. Janet was the only one who moved to hug her as she broke down. Jason was standing by the window with Alyssa and Jayceon who was sleeping in her arms. The entire crew was here and didn’t look happy or their usual selves. “What happened?”“Yes, Rock, that is the million-dollar question,” Dan said, leaning in with a s
Chapter 42Damien walked into the hotel Chris was staying in now to allow the air to the mansion to clear out before he entered again. He sat idly in a chair as Damien walked in his hands around a glass drinking dark liquor. “Where have you been?” he asked.“That damn brother of yours is a real piece of work,” Damien replied, coming closer to the light so he could see the bruises that were patched up. “I got the text to not go home so I assumed you would be here.”Chris scoffed.“I know he already found you.” Damien nodded very smug and with an attitude. “And what did you tell him?”“Nothing. That fucker is crazy. Knocked me out and took me to his house.” Chris stood after setting his glass down, towering over Damien. “For just meeting the man for the first time, I’m sure you have questions.”Damien shook his head. “You told me ev
Chapter 43Dan walked into the Sanders building with a basket of fruit and a stroller full of toys as he looked to Janet and Julissa there, Jason and Alyssa with his grandson. Antonio, luckily, made a full recovery and they were all heading back to the hospital as soon as they changed and got some food in them. “I’ve come bearing gifts.”“Well, well, well, Dan Sanders trying to be a good father. Hell is about to freeze over.” Julissa teased as she took a grape from the basket.“I may have come to realize I have been preparing my children for the real world a bit too harshly. I want a new start with my grandkids, including Jayceon. I can take him off your hands for a couple of hours while you guys…” His hands swirled in the air looking for the correct word to use, “…handle business for today.” He saw the look Jason gave Alyssa with doubt. “I will only go home and try to fig
