CHAPTER FORTY-ONE

Detective Garrett was seen trying to make some coffee back at the precinct when his informant called and he picked up.“Got anything for me,” Detective Garrett asked in a low voice to avoid being heard.“Yes, that’s why I called,” the informant said.“What have you got?” Detective Garrett said. “So I was able to find out some information about the Thompson kid….. apparently he was once charged for car theft so I asked around and I heard he left home of recent,” the informant said.“You mean his family home?” Detective Garrett asked.“Yes,” the informant said. “Any idea of where it is located? Or the last time he was there?” Detective Garrett.“It was a couple of days ago, he was seen storming out of the house after having an argument with a man in his 50s,” the informant said. “A man in his 50s?” Detective Garrett asked.“Yeah, that’s what I heard,” the informant said.“Any existing relative?” Detective Garrett asked.“Not that I am aware of………. his last guardian was his father” th

CHAPTER FORTY - TWO

“That must have been Miss Lexi” Mr Walker said.“Why do you think things went bad when the orphanage had the visit?” Julian asked.“After Mr and Mrs Carter handled the event, his spokesman delivered an invitation to the sponsor’s residence to the director” she said.“He told me about the invite and was quite skeptical about going but I encouraged him to go because I figured him going would make things better for the orphanage but I was wrong” she said, slightly sobbing.“What were you wrong about? What happened?” Julian asked, quite hooked and curious.“A couple of days after the director went over to this anonymous sponsor’s residence, he suddenly became distant and then I suddenly noticed that the kids started missing.” She said.“Missing? How” Mr Walker asked.“At first it was 6 year old Josiah then it was 4 year old Nyla and then the numbers kept increasing” she said, now fully sobbing. “How high did the number increase?” Julian asked.She couldn’t control her tears and this made

CHAPTER FORTY - THREE

Miss Caitlyn told Detective Garrett the very same thing she told Julian and Mr Walker and when he also showed her a picture of David Thompson, she recognized him as well.“I'm going to register you under a witness protection, your involvement in this is quite deep and I can't have you being in danger or at risk…… I hope you would be able to boldly testify when the time comes,” Detective Garrett asked.“Yes I will Detective, I owe it to those innocent souls” Miss Caitlyn said with teary eyes.“Thank you so much, here is my card……call me when you feel you need to” Detective Garrett said as he stretched forth his card to Miss Caitlyn and she collected it.“I will be on my way now” Detective Garrett said as he took his leave.As he walked towards his car, he brought out his phone and called his colleague, she was an older colleague in her early 40s and had been in that precinct longer than other officers. “Hey, I need you to assign a watch over this address please……I am gonna send it to

CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR

Julian and Mr Walker were finally able to get back to the residence and I was halfway through the painting. I had to stop at some point as I noticed that it was taking a toll on me so I took a nap. I suddenly woke up to the sound of the door creaking and it was Julian trying to shut the door behind him.“You are back?….when did you get back?” I asked with a frizzy voice as I rubbed my eyes with the back of my palm, trying to get back into reality.“A couple of minutes ago……. I actually tried not to wake you up” Julian said as he returned to my bed side.“I guess you failed then” I said with a soft smile.I tried to get out of the bed but then Julian stopped me.“Oh you don't have to get out of bed…..you seem tired” Julian said as he sat right beside me and patted me back into bed. “Yea, I got stuck while painting and did a lot of brainstorming…..how was where you went to?” I asked.Julian hesitated for a while as though he had wanted to tell me all about it but something changed his

CHAPTER FORTY - SEVEN

I was still amazed at another hint that popped up while halfway through the Elysium. I placed the half done canvas in the angle I had viewed it from when I was on the bed and I finally saw it, another cursive letter and this around, it was not just a letter this time around as it was “ for S”. I wondered to myself what the cursive letters “L for S” could possibly mean. I knew that the cursive letter “L” was the first word judging from the starting point of the painting and then the cursive phrase “for S” was the second just as the painting went up gradually. The first thing that came to my mind was that the letter L stood for Lexi and with the phrase, it became “Lexi for S”. But putting them together like this didn't make any sense to me so I assumed that there was going to be more letters or phrases to make it make sense. To some extent I pondered what this painter couple were thinking to have hiden letters and phrases in their strokes. I picked up my brush and continued painti

CHAPTER - FIFTY

I felt choked and I couldn’t keep staying in the hidden room being reminded of what I had just found out so I stepped out of the hidden room and out of the study. I found my way to one of the rooms and entered there just to clear my head for a while. A couple of minutes later, Julian and Frederick got back to the house and the first place they came into was the hidden room but Frederick waited back in the study. “Lexi’s not here” Julian said frantically as soon as he came out. “What do you mean she’s not here?” Frederick asked surprised. “She’s not in the room Fred” Julian said as he hurriedly picked up his phone.“Wait who you’re calling?” Frederick asked.“My father!” Julian said.“Whoah! Calm down…….it couldn’t have been him, we were just coming from his place right?” Frederick said.“What if he sent some peeps here while we were away?” Julian freaked out.“We haven’t even checked around the house……she could possibly be somewhere around the house” Frederick said.“She hasn’t l
