Chapter 114 - Cheers to Comeuppance
“He did. I was informed by your new public defender that Bart made a plea deal to avoid a long-term prison sentence.”
“What did he say!?”
“I don’t know. I didn’t get those details. But I don’t think it’s good.”
“He better not open his big mouth. If he so much as betrays me, I will—” Sadie was barely getting to the juicy part of her threat to have Bart killed if he were to betray her; however, several guards suddenly approached her before she could. “What’s going on? What do you want? Can’t you see I’m in the middle of my visitation!?”
“Sadie Galloway, we just received instructions to put you into the general population.”
“WHAT!? I’m supposed to be in protective custody! LOOK AT ME!” She screamed as she pointed to her still bruised face and ruined hair.
“Those charged with attempted murder don’t get to be in isolation,” one of the guards spat at her.
“What are you …” Sadie was about to question, but she realized what was happening. Bart must have sold her out. Only Bart knew that Sadie had planned to have Annika kidnapped, raped, and murdered. Bart was the one that had paid the thugs on her behalf. Even though the thugs promised to keep their mouths shut, it wouldn’t take much for them to turn their backs on her. After all, whether they got the job done or not, they had been paid. They had no loyalty to Sadie whatsoever. “BART! THAT SON OF A BITCH!”
“Let’s go, prisoner!” The guards yanked her up by her arms and forcibly took her away.
“Get your filthy hands off of me! I’m Sadie Galloway, goddammit! You can’t do this to me! ARGH! Unhand me, you pathetic excuses of women! Let go of me!”
“Sadie!” Mrs. Galloway shouted for her daughter, but it was futile.
“Ma’am, you need to leave immediately,” the remaining guard commanded. She was also forcibly removed from the prison. Once outside, she was told she was no longer permitted to visit Sadie and that she would see her at her official court hearing.
“Now, what am I supposed to do?” Mrs. Galloway mumbled as she made her way to the prison bus stop to be taken back to her vehicle. While she was waiting, however, she realized that she was alone. When she had initially arrived, there were about half a dozen people or so, but now, she was all by her lonesome. Though strange as she thought it was, no one else was waiting with her; she just figured that they were still having their visits with their loved ones. She felt bitter about everything. She was angry that Bart had saved his own ass and betrayed their family, especially after all the money they had paid him over the last few years.
Mrs. Galloway was so lost in thought over the turn of events in her life that she hadn’t realized that she was literally the only soul within a half-mile radius. As she contemplated how to turn things around for her and Sadie, her eyesight suddenly turned black. Her head was covered with a black bag, and her mouth was covered by someone’s hand. She was hoisted up into the air and thrown into a vehicle, most likely a van.
“Who are you!? Ah!” she immediately cried out when she felt that she had been slapped by one of her assailants. “What is the meaning of—AH!” she was hit again before she could even finish her question.
“Easy, man. The boss said not to hit her too much. Just enough to get her to shut up,” she heard one of the men say.
“Boss!? What boss! Who are you!?”
“Shut up, bitch. You have no right to ask anything. Just keep your trap shut, and enjoy the ride.”
“LEON PUT YOU UP TO THIS, DIDN’T HE!? How dare he have me kidnapped! Don’t you assholes know who I am!?”
“Oh, we know who you are, all right. And Leon Von Doren has nothing to do with this.”
“What?! No! You’re lying! AH!”
“Shut the fuck up before we tape your mouth shut, old hag.”
“OLD HAG!? I’LL HAVE YOU KNOW—”
“Lift the bag and gag the grandma!”
“Grand—mmmm!” the men quickly subdued Mrs. Galloway and covered her mouth with duct tape. Then one of the men covered her nostrils with a rag soaked with chloroform. The last thing Mrs. Galloway heard was, “Master Galloway will be pleased that we finally have her.”
