Chapter 109 Her mother’s wickedness
~BRYAN ~
" I don't understand why you felt the need to bring the police to my door step. Or don't you think i don't miss her too? She has a new mother now, she came back prancing in fancy clothes and cars, so why don't you go meet the stupid woman and ask her to provide the daughter she adopted. I won't be surprised if she is laying somewhere murdered by now. It's obvious how these people work" Margaret said.
For a moment, I stared at this woman, wondering how she could talk so cruelly about the daughter she gave birth to herself?
" We would need you to come with us now to the police station Mrs Silvio for further questioning.
She grimaced.
" I already told you I don't know where that girl is. Or where Leon is either. If I knew I would have told you I don't have to hide the information to myself. After all she is still my child and I want the best for her. But whatever befalls her is as a result of her own mishaps. "
Suddenly, I found myself wishing I did not involve the police in this. I wanted to respect her. After all she was still the mother of the woman I loved. But she did not deserve respect.
She should be in a cage alongside Stella in my warehouse, being starved.
She was a monster.
" Please cooperate with us, let's all get along easily ma am."
She let out an exaggerated long sigh before picking up her shawl from the couch and heading outside.
Still no information about Akira.
The interrogation seemed too hot for me with every shake of the head she gave.
" I already told you, I don't know where either of them are. You keeping me here is not going to change anything you know that?"
I was so close to losing my cool now and I could feel the little patience I had begun to wane.
" So what the hell are you trying to say? That the messages found on your phone to Leon shortly after he broke out is just coincidental?"
Her face paled almost instantly.
" So you went through my phone?! How dare you? Do you know that is a crime in this state and I can have you sued?"
The police officer chuckled.
" Well in this case, it is for investigation purposes so you can't sue anyone. If I were you, I will start talking very quickly. I'm not a very patient man and so is Mr Bryan"
I watched her eyes thin as though she was thinking of whatever lie she could use to back herself up now.
" Fine. I did text him. But he never replied. I was just checking up on him and wanting to know where he was but he never replied"
" No, we read the whole chat and retrieved it. You were also asking him to capture your daughter and ask for a random once and for all. You called her a burden if I remember clearly"
Again, she sighed.
" Well sure I did. But you can't arrest me for just that. It was just talk and I don't know where the hell she is"
He hummed.
" Yes, we can see that. I think a few days in a cell room will help you jog back your memory"
Her face paled and mine grew urgent.
" We don't have a few days. God knows what they are already doing to her now that she has not been found. They may even kill her in fact!" I said.
The police officer turned to look at me, that unbothered look that all of them seemed to have in their eyes gnawing at his.
" I understand the need for urgency but you have to understand also that this is a case and there by, it requires tenacity. There are laws guiding these kind of things so we have to abide by the law of whatever evidence we gather would be inadmissible in court "
I gritted my teeth, running my hands through my hair in frustration as I turned to where the old hag sat, a small smile on her face..
" Tell me where the hell he is! Right this instant!"
" I already told you Mr hot shot. I don't know. Maybe the officer is right..I should spend a few days in cell and get my memory jogged back. By then she might be dead but oh well"
The heartlessness was clear, the anger that permeated the air almost sent me reeling.
All of them. They were just a bunch of no good and I should have never involved them with this case. I should have done it myself.
" I'm done with this shit" I said simply, storming out of the station amidst the calling of the officers.
I did not know where I wanted to drive to, but anywhere was better than here, with these men.
" How is unit one doing? Anything?" I asked, speaking into my phone.
The static cleared and unit one replied.
" Still nothing from her cellphone sir. We have swept the entire area clean and whoever it is, he is not using any gadgets"
I gritted my teeth. Leon was never this smart. Someone has to be helping him too.
" Unit two?" I asked, whatever hope I had now fading slowly.
" Nothing yet sir but we are still searching"
I banged my hands heavily on the steering wheel..I had no idea where I was trying to drive to but one thing was clear, I needed to find her.
" Maybe we should circle the forests and coastal areas. Most of these men build their warehouses in desolate places and I'm sure we will be able to find..." One of my men was saying but one suddenly yelled, interrupting.
" Don! Akira has been spotted close to the coastal area. She has been spotted!!"
