The Daughter Of Rachel Mason - Book Four

Chapter Fourteen

It was two days after Rachel had gotten Max arrested. He was still at the police station. Chloe had gone back to her house with Aubree, Isla and Emily.

It was 5am and Chloe was sitting on the sofa watching DVD's. All she wanted was Max back with her. Emily started crying so Chloe stood up and went to get her. "Morning babygirl. You normally sleep later than this," Chloe said. Emily blinked her eyes and nestled her head into Chloe's neck.

"Mummy?"

Chloe turned to see Aubree and Isla standing there. "What's wrong?" She asked them. Isla started crying.

"I want daddy," Isla said. Chloe smiled and hugged Isla as best she could with Emily in her arms.

"Daddy will be back with us soon and then we can all get excited for the new baby," Chloe told them. Isla giggled and kissed Chloe's stomach.

"I love you baby," Isla said. Chloe grinned and took the girls downstairs. Aubree had fallen asleep under the fleece blanket with Isla and Emily was asleep in her bouncer.

Charlotte woke and looked out the bedroom window. She saw Chloe's TV was on and sighed. Chloe hadn't slept again. Heading downstairs she decided to text Eddie :

Is everything okay? - Charlotte.

Everything is fine. Do you know if Chloe's okay? -Eddie

I think she's okay. I'm going over to check on her soon - Charlotte.

Okay princess. If she needs anything then tell her to call me. She's my daughter too - Eddie.

Charlotte smiled, Chloe loved Eddie like her dad. She needed someone after Rachel said she never wanted her. "Morning beautiful," Tom said sleepily. Charlotte smiled.

"Morning handsome. You're up early," Charlotte commented. Tom nodded.

"Its because my beautiful wife wasn't here to keep me warm," Tom told her. Charlotte grinned and kissed Tom with as much passion as she could.

"I love you Clarky."

"I love you too."

9am came and Charlotte told Tom she was going over to Chloe's. "Give her my love," Tom said. Charlotte smiled and nodded.

"I will," she replied. After sharing a brief kiss and an explanation to Taitlyn as to why she couldn't go, Charlotte left the house.

Chloe was making some breakfast for the girls when the doorbell rang. Knowing Max would use his keys she knew it wasn't him. "Chloe?"

Chloe sighed in relief when she heard Charlotte's voice. She opened the door and broke down crying. Charlotte held her. "Shh, its okay. I'm here," Charlotte said.

Chloe was inconsolable. "I want him here! He never abused me," Chloe cried. Charlotte held her still.

"I know Chloe. Rachel was horrid for doing this," Charlotte said. Chloe looked up.

"You're right. She did something I hated so now I'm gonna do something she'll hate. Can you keep an eye on the girls?" Chloe asked. Charlotte nodded and watched as Chloe grabbed Max's car keys.

"Wrong carkeys Chloe," Charlotte said. Chloe grinned.

"I'm taking my mans car. He's coming back in his car," Chloe said. Charlotte smiled and puck up Emily.

Chloe pulled up outside the police station and took a deep breath. She wasn't leaving until Max had been released. Once she was inside she walked up to the reception. "Hi, I'm here to make sure Max Tyler is released. The domestic abuse he was accused of never happened," Chloe said. The officer at reception looked up.
