Chapter 150
- KILLIAN -
You may wonder what my intentions were when I left Hazel alone for nearly two weeks.
I had every reason not to but did so regardless. Liam needed me. Natalie needed me. We are one step closer to uncovering the mystery behind my parent’s death. Just knowing who killed them isn’t the only thing involved now that certain things have been unfolded.
For starters, my father was owing. Not anything of monetary value, but something dire that would cost his life. The weird part about that is his signature was forged so neither he nor my mother were aware of that contract. Not even after death. Every single trace of whoever and whatever could’ve conspired against them had been wiped out long before we were aware of its existence and it just brings us back to zero. Whoever is the mastermind behind this is messing with us on purpose and giving us clues little by little and I cannot begin to describe how sickening that is.
Infuriatingly sickening and it makes my hand itch to kill someone even more. I take a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves. The last thing I want during this drive frustration and the thought of the things I didn’t do during my business trip.
Like erasing the asshole responsible for my parents’ death from existence. My fist clench and my other hand dips in my pocket to play with my zippo.
I was tempted to torment the murderer but if I succumbed into the urge, especially as heightened as it was, I would’ve spent much longer than I intended to and I wanted to meet Hazel before her exams. I’m her biggest supporter.
So despite leaving her alone, in a way, I left two men to guide her every move from a distance. Just so she feels comfortable and unsuspicious of her environment while carrying on her day to day activities. Owen is alive and he’s in the same state she’s in.
There couldn’t be anything but bad news to come out of that.
I let out an exhale as I pinch the bridge of my nose. I’m in my suv, sat in the back seat as my driver drives me to meet her.
My men will give me a full report of their duties when I arrive, both which can be deemed meaningless and dire. I also hope Hazel spent her time in my home as well. Every staff of mine is well skilled in martial arts. That would have left her protected if anything were to occur, which is why I suggested it before leaving.
