Chapter 24
“Happy now” Zasha asked in handcuffs. Darrell wrapped his hands around my waist pulling me to himself.
“Well I’m happy and sad… happy that you won’t be a bother to us and sad that you are leaving… You really did alot of mean things Zasha but it still doesn’t change the fact that you were my ex. In your next life be a better person” Darrell told her as she sheds tears.
“I’m sorry Darrell for all I did… I don’t want to die”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“But you killed people, don’t you think those people deserved a second chance? It’s called justice Zasha and you can’t escape it… take her away”
“Darrell, Darrell” she cried as the policemen took her away.
“Wow so touching” Lee said walking into the conversation. Seriously? doesn’t he get tired?
“I’m seriously not in the mood for your nonsense”
“I want to talk to Claire alone”
“That’s not possible… Lee go get your own girlfriend and stop running after mine”
“That should be my business… I still want to talk to Claire”
“Well I don’t want to talk to you and stop being a jerk. Darrell let’s just go” he smiled broadly as we walked away from Lee.
“You can’t run away from me Claire. Lee always gets what he wants”
“Screw yourself” I yelled back.
“Inna get ready for our next case and it’s gonna be against Lee”
She chuckled. “Very funny”
“Well I’m serious”
“OK, I should be on my way now” she waved at me slightly and left.
“Are you guys like friends now”
“Maybe, but you seem to know her alot”
“Not really but she happened to be my senior in high school”
“So I guess I should start getting ready to go back to the states” I giggled as we headed to the parking lot.
“Yeah, we are leaving tomorrow”
“I can’t wait to finally see Danielle, I miss her so much”
“Danielle? Daniela’s twin”
“Yeah… Darrell can Daniela come with us? Please”
“She can come along if she wants to but she’s coming back”
“Of course, thanks Darrell” I giggled kissing his cheeks.
“That kiss should have been on my lips” he pouted. I smiled wrapping my hands on his shoulders as I pulled him into a short kiss.
LEE’S POVA
I felt my blood boil as I watched them kiss, I must have you Claire. Let’s see how long she can stick to him when he looses everything.
I will ruin you Darrell and take your beloved from you. You will pay for what you did to my father. You think you can be happy, let’s see how long your happiness will last.
CLAIRE’S POV
“I got a something to tell you” I giggled.
“What is it? or are you pregnant” she grinned.
“Geez no, guess some more”
“Zasha was sentenced to death” I hit her shoulders playfully.
“I already told you that”
“Well I’m not good at guessing. Just tell me already”
“Darrell agreed to let you follow us to the states” I screamed.
“You must be kidding me”
“Do I like like I’m joking? I’m dead serious”
“Oh my God” she screamed happily hugging me tight.
“Am I dreaming or something”
“No it’s real”
“Thanks Claire. I love you so much and you are the best friend one can ask for” she hugged me again.
“You too. You will finally get to see your family again”
“Danielle is the only family I have and she’s the reason why I want to go back”
“What about your mother”
“She abandoned me and left me to the cruel hands of my foster parents. I don’t regard her as my mother Claire”
“I bet she regrets it everyday Daniela”
“I don’t want to talk about my mother, let’s talk about something else”
“Fine… Darrell did say you will have to come back with us”
“That won’t be a problem… I don’t plan on staying there for long anyways”
“Ok” I nodded slightly.
DARRELL’S POV
I sigh tiredly as I sat on my office chair. I just had a meeting with the board members. I had to return to work after the court trial. Asher smiled as he walked into my office.
“Darrell you are such a bad ass genius” he smiled.
“Lee will sure fall into this trap” I smiled.
“Darrell I’m sure gonna miss you”he pouted.
“Don’t give me that look, it’s just for a few weeks, no biggie. So while I’m gone, you are gonna be in charge”
“Yeah of course” he said sadly.
“Stop making me feel emotional with that look. I’m not running away” I rolled my eyes at him.
“You really are cold” he muttered.
“Asher… come on in for a hug”
“Darrell I can’t remember the last time we hugged, I guess that was in preschool”
“That’s a big lie”
“But it’s true”
“Do you want the hug or not”
“Of course I do” he grinned and pulled me into a hug. I smiled slightly still hugging him. Asher is really important to me, he’s one of reasons, I had to take on my uncle for the company.
Had I let him take over, he would obviously had made us miserable and I didn’t want that for Asher and myself.
