Eye to eye | Book 2 - Trent Alexander Arnold

Chapter 22🤍

How could an individual be so sick? How low of a person could someone be to possibly endanger two children and a teenager? Trent and Ella were asking themselves those sort of questions in their head. Some people were really wicked and that was a fact more than an opinion. Trent made sure that they were all safe, seeing as Ella had alerted the police about the ongoing matter. It was times like this that made Trent not even think twice about not posting his children online, that made him realise how dangerous the world really was, especially for girls and woman. He hated every second of the treacherous situation. The worst part was that he couldn't punch or set the person straight himself because he knew that he had to be a role model for his kids and other children around the world. He also knew that the media would explode over this. If someone were to harm his family in any way, he would a hundred percent throw hands however and that was for certain. As there were better ways to deal with this particular issue, he would make sure to not draw more attention to this. Ella was sat on the couch with her son still in her arms as internal rage filled up in her. She could never have peace. Time after time after time, an unwanted, unexpected, crazy situation propped itself into her life. This wasn't something she wanted for Tahj and Tayah. This wasn't something she wanted for their future or the future of her family. She was sick and tired of it all. Jobe held Tayah while Trent made another check of the house to make sure everything was safe. She was calm in her uncles arms, wrapping herself around him as he rubbed her back slowly. Tahj felt peace and security with his mum, but he and Tayah could both sense her stress, which in turn caused them to worry. The police had told Ella that they were on their way, making her feel slightly better but she was still extremely vexed.

Once the police had arrived, Trent answered the door with relief as his main emotion. Jobe still wasn't scared, he was just annoyed at this whole thing, wanting to protect his niece and nephew more than anything. He could see that Ella was silent, lost in her train of thought before the police called to speak to her. She gave Tahj to Jobe, leaving him with both the twins as she faced the officers, only a few steps away from her children and brother.

"Did you guys hear anything suspicious or did you just see this individual?" An officer spoke in a serious tone. With children at the scene, this was way more serious.

"I only saw them. I didn't hear anything." Trent confirmed as he put his arm around Ella, seeing her visibly angry.

"Okay, so we also inspected the area and we found this note." The tall man showed them the letter, not physically but by showing them the photograph he had taken to not tamper with the evidence. The note wrote...

'I'm going to get you Ella
                                        -B'

"Well they're not really doing a good job." Ella remarks sarcastically, rolling her eyes. She wasn't afraid, only worried for her children and aggravated. Trent's protectiveness couldn't let this slide. It only angered him more. This was the love of his life and absolutely nobody was going to hurt her and walk away fine. He wasn't going to let anyone harm the mother of his children. His future wife. If anything, that note made him more enraged than her.

"Now as for suspects, we are getting closer and closer to finding this person. We do have a lead suspect which we can't tell you at this point in time unfortunately since it isn't confirmed. I'm really sorry about that. What I can tell you however is keep watch of the people around you, close friends for example, colleagues and such. I would also advise that you hire private security and security cameras as you've probably already thought of." Trent nodded immediately at the officers words. He had ordered security cameras while they had been waiting for the police to arrive and private security was next on the list anyway. "Since you guys have children, we are treating this matter very seriously to ensure that there is no harm done. I can assure that your children's safety is our main priority along with catching this individual and we're on the verge of finding out."
