All Chapters of The Crimson Trail of Death: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

[Sierra's POV]"Why would you do that, Nate..." I questioned, just receiving the word from Nate.I was shocked when I found out the news of the woman's true identity.While having some eyes on Dominic and Nate doing their investigations, I decided to check for more clues in the mansion, hoping to find more, something that could help me figure out what I could do next to bring Dominic down other than my plan of separating the two brothers and making them hate each other. What if the plan backfired? I needed a backup measure.But while digging further, I found an image of a child. It was a girl, judging from the dress, and with it was an image of Sophie, Adrian and Dominic's mother, carrying the child on her hand.I saw the image of no use, flinging it to the side, but my eyes caught sight of some words which were written on the back of the picture.'To my darling daughter, Angelica.' The words read. One that left a stun on me."What does this mean?" I had thought, digging further, chec

"Mam, you have a call. It's Marcellous, sir," one of my men who had dropped by to ensure my safety said.I was also informed that some of my men were also guarding the hospital nonstop, ensuring that the same mistake doesn't repeat itself.My uncle had been arrested as suspected. He had been placed on trial and was now awaiting words from the court."Alright..." I said, grabbing the phone from the man as he helped me in sitting upright.The exploding pain was still there, as I could hardly sleep properly at night, but I could tell it was receding by the second. At least that showed that I was soon to recover.I picked up the call, placing it against my ear."Good day, my dear. I must say I am sorry to hear what had happened. It seems some of those men I hired proved useless at their work. But I am sure this must have also been an improvement in your path..." I heard Marc say.But what did he mean by improvement? I was almost killed, and he called that an improvement?I left no word, o

My men came surrounding the whole area, their guns pointed and aimed at each of the men.The same man that had threatened to kill me was lying on the ground, trembling."Wh-who are you guys?" he stammered, as he stood up, immediately turning and running, but in that moment, another loud sound took over, and the man dropped dead, covered in his own blood.I turned to watch one of my men who pulled the trigger. "I didn't give an order to kill..." I said to him."I'm sorry, mam. It's just how dare him lay his hand on you mam...." he was saying."It's fine..." I cut in.But yet, seeing the man lying there dead, I felt he deserved it. Knowing he had just harmed this innocent little girl, he had to pay, even though death might have been too severe for such a crime.The cops arrived at the scene, not long after. Just as expected."It's her... she shot him! Please stop her. She tried to kill us all, her and those men..." the men, the same ones who were just engaging in their brutal actions, f

"What's going on, Dominic? Who are they?" Uncle Marc questioned.Nate had already arrived with Angelica and the kids."She is under some attacks, Uncle Marc. And I decided to bring her here for her protection, and I also wanted to ensure these kids' safety..." I explained, hoping Uncle Marc would buy my words.Adrain and Uncle Gavin were also present as my gaze went glarng at Adrain, trying to check his expression and Angelica's as well. But it was all too normal. "Or could it be that she didn't see the face of the person who had hired her? Maybe an anonymous boss..." I wondered, trying to put things together."Even so, she is a stranger, Dominic. You know how many enemies we have out there. What assures you that she is not one of them?" Uncle Marc questioned.I was sure he would want a good reason behind my actions. He cared less about any sort of protection, but one thing I knew he hated was the maltreatment of women. That was my ticket to having this done the way I wanted."I have

I sat down on the dining chair as the food was being served. I watched Adrain dig in, eating without wasting any time.Seemed he was surely starving, as he had mentioned.I wanted to ask him, maybe to look for a way to confirm my doubts if he was thinking of maybe facing Marc. The two weren't in a good relationship from the start, but I couldn't just bring out the words directly, hoping for a response."And what is in your mind now, dear wife?" Adrain questioned, snapping me from my thoughts, as I watched those forced smiles play on his lips. He seemed to be quite good at acting out this fake caring husband thing that I had expected."Nothing..." I replied simply, having a bite of the food placed in front of me. The taste was quite delightful, as usual.I dug in for more, and once done eating, I drank some water as I stood up from the dining chair, deciding to make my way back into my room. Even if I had doubts about Adrain's presence, I couldn't deny the fact that I had some work to
