All Chapters of A Night In Vegas: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Twenty- two.22.The loud brawling coming from outside the gate drew my attention. I stepped out to see who it was. Krystal was already asleep. I was taken aback when I saw who it was and burst out laughing.Mom looks confused but this is not time for explaining. "Let him come." I ordered the guards that were holding him back.He marched his way forward, full of confidence like a militant. "Where is she?" He fumes."Who?" I asked, chuckling.Chris must have been obsessed with Krystal or his share in the agreement deal and he's afraid to lose one of each. The audacity he has to come to my house to ask about Krystal baffles me less but makes me laugh. "What makes you think she's here?" I asked him with a stern expression this time. "I know you've abducted her, Lucas and you better bring her out now before I do something you'd regret." He brawled. "You're capable of nothing, Chris. Krystal is with me and she goes nowhere." I replied. "You bastard!" He screamed, running towards me b

Twenty - four. 24. "What should we do to the body? " Dalton asked sounding frightened. "What do you think we should do? " Anne asked. "Do you think we should dump it or…? " "Dumping his body is going to leak us out, burning him up isn't a good idea. We are going to melt him off his bones with this acid before burning up his bones. " Anne said pointing to some gallons of acid in the corners of the room. Her face wasn't visible but I could tell anywhere that it was her voice. "At least that would be better and easier to clean up. " "Ahhh! " I screamed, crying. I held onto Courtney. "It's okay, Krystal, " Courtney consoles crying too. "How could Mom be so wicked? Did you see what they did to Dad's body? Did you see how Mom killed Dad? " "Krystal, it is okay. ""How can it be okay, Courtney? " I asked rhetorically. This is what Mom has been hiding? How has Mom been comfortable after all these years, after doing something as dirty and evil as this?

Twenty-six. 26. Krystal. I waited patiently but uncomfortably in his living room. I had come to see Dalton. The maid ushered me in exactly fifteen minutes ago but I haven't seen Dalton. Just as I contemplated leaving, Dalton came in. The devil's attendant. Mom is the devil herself. I swallowed down nothing. Since I knew Dalton, I have never spoken to him directly or been in an enclosed space with him alone. He looks bigger than I last saw him. Dalton in his huge self landed on the last stair, smiling broadly immediately after he saw me. Is it just my eyes or that Chris looks nothing like his parents? I kept mute and started sheepishly at Dalton until he got in the living room with me. "Good afternoon sir, " I greeted, blinking rapidly. "Krystal? You requested to see me? Or do you want to speak with Chris? " He asked impatiently, not even responding to my greetings. "No. I am not here for Chris. I am here to see you, Mr. Dalton, " I said politely givin

Twenty-Eight. 28.Krystal. Lucas was dumbfounded and stunned after watching the video clips of Mom's escapade. He stared at me occasionally like he didn't believe it. Gradually, a smirk displayed on his lips as though he was beginning to enjoy it. I couldn't fathom his expression. I was confused as to what he found funny in the video. I intended to ask what it was all about but pushed the thought aside and waited patiently for Courtney to come. I had invited her over to Lucas' house to confide in. I now stay with Lucas for now, afraid of Mom's threat to kill me. "Guess what? " he suddenly asked and I stared at him squarely. "What? " I asked and he smirked. "This is perfect. The video is strong evidence to hold against your mom and Dalton. This is a ticket to your freedom, " he said and smiled broadly, patting my shoulders lightly before turning back to the laptop and replaying the video. I stared at him surprisingly and was left wondering how

Thirty. 30.Yolanda. "Look here son, I don't think it is advisable to carry on with this marriage anymore. I don't feel safe with it. I think we should just cancel it. " I said to Chris. He stared at me, questioning my disapproval of the long-planned and anticipated wedding. "After an engagement party has been done? " He asked as if the engagement party went successful. "Yes, I think we should cancel it. I feel there is more harm than good in this marriage and it doesn't feel safe. At least for the first time, we should follow instinct and just call it off. " I cajoled but he shook his head in objection to my opinions about the wedding. "We cannot just call it off Mom. We have waited too long for this. Not now that we are close to achieving plans. Have you forgotten that this marriage is a ticket to acquire all that belongs to Wallace? " "What rubbish are you talking about now Chris? " "Here is the deal, Mom. If I marry Krystal, I will become the head o
