GETTING CAUGHT

Angelina ran as far as she could out of the building so he wouldn’t reach her neither find. She couldn’t believe she was such a fool for trusting Ethan. She sniffed in and wipe the tears gushing out of her eyes. She reached the road and boarded a taxis.

“Malcons masion”. She said and the cab man nodded before he zoomed off. She covered her mouth so she won’t sound too loud while crying. She’s such a fool, she has been fooled by someone she cares about, someone she choosed to love with her all heart, neverdid she knew…perhaps all men are just the same. She looked out through the window as she inhaled from the sound breeze fanning her face, trying her tears. She knew she needed to be strong, the only person she needs right now is Mariah. She couldn’t wait to get her revenge on everyone that has offended her, especially her father.

She groan and buried her face in her palm as she sob. She wish she could just forget what has just happened in front of her, she wish she could ever forget the moment the time she spent with a betrayer, a backstabber that wants nothing but to get rid of her. It’s hard to believe because it hurt her the more.

The car halt and she turned to see a group of broadcasters at the entrance of the mansion. The house was surrounded with cameras all around. She step down from the car and rushed into the crowd.

“What’s going on here”. She asked, pushing through the crowds to get into the house.

“A woman corpse was found in the house of Mr. Paul agene, popular worker of Connery Dover”. The broadcaster who was taking live video in front of the mansion said.

Onhearing that, Angelina rushed into the middle of the crowd and found Mariah’s corpse on the ground.

“No Mariah, no…”. She screamed.

Her body wasn’t in a pleasant form, it was smelling badly and had worms eating up her decayed body.

Angelina fell on her knees, she tried to touch her but the ambulance arrived and carried out her body.

She cried her lungs out, she knew her father must be behind this. It shattered her heart and hurt her so much that she wasn’t there for her when she needed her. If she has never left all this wouldn’t have happened. She blamed herself severely for the death of Mariah.

She stood up and ran into the mansion, scanning the whole empty room in search of her father but couldn’t find him anywhere around.

“Please who are you and how are you related to her”. The lady broadcaster asked Angelina and before she could respond a group of crowd asserted.

“Isn’t she the wife of Connery Dover, the cheater”. One of the women inquired.

“She’s so shameless, sleeping with her husband brother”

Angelina was flagabasted when she heard those word coming out from an unknown stranger. The phone beeped and she unlocked it to see a message pop out.

“Like what you see mi amor”. She read and a screenshot of the video been posted.

Her eyes wide open and her legs weaken. She could feel her heart raced out of her chest and wish the ground would just swallow her.

She felt dizzy all of a sudden and landed on the ground.

“Someone should call the ambulance before she dies”

“Catch her”

“She’s falling”

Those are the words she could hear coming from the crowd who was rushing towards her to her rescue before she blanked out.




**********

Paul increased the speed of his car as it speed up on the road. His heart was racing so fast than usual.

Few hours ago, he had dragged Mariah’s corpse from her bathroom where he had hidden her in an attempt to bury her outside but was caught by one of his neighbor. He had no idea when the news broadcaster arrived at his house and he had to flee out through the window.

He was in haste to reach the airport, he doesn’t wants to be taken behind bars for the crime he had committed. He needed to leave the country to somewhere no one could ever find her, not the cops, not his daughter, not even Conner or anyone who knows about him.

He has all the money he needed to change his identity and flee out of California. He halt his car when he had arrived at 1, Los Angeles international Airport. He quickly unlocked the door and stepped down from the car before slamming it locked.

“I’m gonna start a new life and I will Dam fine”. He assured himself and let out a mocking laugher before he rushed into the airport after been scanned.

“Hey man, come back here you look familiar”. The bodyguard who has just scanned him called and he increased his pace. Paul wore his cap, shoved his hands into the coat pocket and lowered he’s head. He ran into the crowd so the guard wouldn’t find him. “Stop him, someone should stop him, he is a criminal”. The guard hollared as Paul raced so he wouldn’t get caught by the man chasing after him.

The people around who overheard the guard from behind began to run Helter shelter out of fear, some of them began searching around for Paul but couldn’t find him.

The airport was so extremely huge and the people around every corner made it uneasy to find him.

Paul tried sneaking into the plane when he heard a gunshot and he paused. He was terrified by the gunshot.

“Put your hands behind your head”. The cop that has been after him yelled behind and Paul did as he was instructed. “If you dare move I will be forced to pull the trigger”. He warned and it made Paul tremble in fear. The cop approached him and handcuff both his hands. “You have the right to remain silent”. He said. “If you do say anything, what you say can be used against you in a court of law”. He said, before pulling Paul along with him.
