The Secret Lovers

Chapter 38

An hour later, she arrived and Antoniyo had just gotten out of surgery. Kalleigh cried when she entered his room and she was in disbelief. Detective Kingsbury knocked and came in the room stating that he had a few questions for Antoniyo. He complied with every question and the detective left out of the room.

Back at the station, Rhyon was in the interrogation room and told them why he shot Antoniyo. He was a lawyer so he knew the ropes just was ready for a cell and asked for his one phone call. Rhyon called Kalleigh and she stepped out in the hall away from Antoniyo.

She accepted the free call and asked Rhyon what was he thinking. He apologized to her and for Bry'Conn and told her to let him know daddy did everything for the right reason and that he'd never get to meet his dad.

Rhyon hung up the phone and went over to the holding cell. The day passed and Kalleigh left Antoniyo to get the twins from her mom, so she could go to work. The next morning, Rhyon got a cell and an hour later, he banged his head against the metal bars until his head bussed open.

As he bled out he told God he was sorry and by the time the guards got to him he was dead. A medical examiner called Rhyon's parents and they called Kalleigh and had her meet them at the morgue. Kalleigh was confused, but packed up the twins and headed there.

Unaware of what's been going on, Rhonda and Rhyontay waited until Kalleigh arrived and they went to view and confirm Rhyon's body. His parents grabbed the twins from Kalleigh as they got closer to the room and once Kalleigh saw Rhyon laying on the table, she lost it.

She fell to her knees as she weeped calling out Rhyon's name. Rhyontay got on the floor with Kalleigh and comforted her for as long as she needed. Rhonda asked did she know the reason Rhyon was in jail to begin with and why didn't Kalleigh call her.
