All Chapters of Betrayal's Embrace: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Morris's Point of View."You have been awfully quiet since you got into the car." Maybe it was all the bumping. Or perhaps it was the pizza, but Carson hadn't said a word since we left the house.He turned and stared at me for a while, as if trying to decode what I had just said. "Huh?" He asked after a few seconds, proofing my point. Something was up with him."You have been quiet. Are you having second thoughts about this?" I knew I was having second thoughts of my own, there was no need denying it to myself. Maybe the fact that I was a little bit nervous that we were going on a mission as dangerous as this on our own would make me more agile. More quick and fast."No. No, I just... I think I overate that's all." He said. He was lying. I co

Katy's Point of View.I hated this. I hated that Carson was going to sacrifice his vest for me but I was over here lying to him. He was ready to go there bare and all for me and I was going to send him to jail. I clutched the steering wheel as my heart burned. I couldn't stop the tears as they continued flowing. I was supposed to be searching the car for anything implicating and taking notes of this area just in case the court needed it for evidence, but the thought of doing it made me sick. I was about to pull up his phone and call Mrs Smith. I couldn't do this. I couldn't keep lying. I just couldn't. It would be easier if I just called things off now. It would be much easier for both of us. I searched for his phone and a paper fell off. I picked up th

Katy's Point of View."Is everyone okay? Is anyone hurt?" I heard Carson's voice echo through the dizziness that surrounded me. My eyes hurt, but my head hurt more."I'm alright. I'm fine." Morris said. I couldn't quite see his face clearly through the haze."I'm not exactly great but I'm good," Annabel said. Of course, she was cool. She had the guts to smile in a car that was about to get blown to bits."Are you okay, Jo?" Morris asked again. It was Carson's arms that I felt around me. Then it dawned on me. We were in a moving vehicle. There were bumpings and tire screeching from the heaviness every few seconds. The truck had to be old. I was going to have to check the place out later. That is if I could stay. I doubted I coul

Carson's Point of View."You mean you just grabbed the chip and you're still alive? Is that even possible? Unless he let you grab the fake one." Abel concluded, unbelief consuming him."You can't even do a duplicate of this thing. That could cost like a few million dollars. The limited version that is. I doubt that Verde would let them take that amount of money from his account to build that stuff."I said. I'd had only two meetings with him before and the both of them had been from a distance. The man was ruthless. Too ruthless if I did say so myself."Woah. Are you sure we can't just sell this thing and take the money? I mean it could make us real millionaires." Abel joked, as Morris entered the office.

Katy's Point of View "What are you doing here?" I whispered. I wanted to scream, but luckily I whispered. What in Earth was she thinking? She couldn't be here.Mrs Smith chuckled and shook her head. "You know they could be watching you now, you're being sour to a neighbor who wants your help. How does that make sense?""You're breaking protocol." I whisper-screamed again. My heart was beating very hard. "You know that. Why couldn't you just send a message since you know where we were.""You're supposed to have checked in yesterday and the last three days, why didn't you, Katherine?""It's been really crazy around here. So crazy that I'm beginning to get all use to the ruckus. You might think me incompetent but I'm trying my best, Mrs Smith. I'm trying my best, I'm trying to do everything I can so that this mission would not be a complete disaster. And believe me when I say that there
