TJL#8#The Hidden Heiress

Dark Mask!!!!

Edwin's POV

" You alright?!" Alan asked me as we both were standing afar away from the burning car.

" God!!! Alan. I was just dying thinking about you." I said and hugged my brother tightly without even bothering about crowd around us. I was hell scared.

" How did you manage to come out?" I asked breaking the hug.

" Eddie, I went to the coffee shop other side of the road just after you got down to get some water. I was dying thirsty and you were not coming back. So, I got down and went there. But I thought you were inside, I ran out and saw you were sitting here shocked." He said and I just kept holding him. What if I lose him like Hailey!!!

" Alright, ok. Sit down here with me. Cops are coming maybe. Call Steffan and Dad. I threw my phone away when I ran to the car." I said still was composing myself that Alan is alive and perfectly fine. I can feel my heart was almost coming out of the ribcage. I kept my hand on my heart tried to hold back. What was that!!!

" Here, drink it, Eddie." Alan gave me a water bottle. I drank water then poured some water on my face and head. I was hell scared. For the first time in my life after Hailey's death I felt that helpless. I was all blank for a moment thinking Alan was inside the car. I kept my head on the table and calmed down myself a bit.

" Eddie, called them. They will be here soon." I heard Alan saying. He looked at me.

" What happened, Eddie?! Chest pain again?!!!!" He said worriedly.

" No, I am fine, just sit down here with me." I said fighting for the control over the pain.

" Eddie, I am fine, don't think anything what has not happened yet." He said holding my hand.

" It scared my whole self nastily." I said in a funny way tried to make the atmosphere light.

" Yeah, me too. I am freaking out inside but I am controlling over it because of you." Alan said slowly.

" Then feelings are mutual." I said he laughed.

" Quite same." He said.

" Mr. Stewart, Mr. Christos!!!" I heard someone calling.

" Hello, Mr. Jonas." I said the cop and shook his hand.

" How that had happened?" He asked me and Alan. I started to tell him.

I and Alan was going to meet Mr. Hudson. He told Tasha to meet him but she was ill. I didn't want to involve her in this. So I hide everything about her. Just said I wanted to meet someone of my business associates.

We came out in this sports car as ours was sent for washing. In the middle of my way I got a call from my mom but couldn't get it what she said as network was not working properly. So, I told Alan to stop the car and I walked out. I was talking with mom then I heard a blasting sound. As I looked back saw the sports car we were riding is in air and burning with fire. I thought Alan was inside I ran to the car until Alan came and pulled me aside from the car. I was hell scared.

" So, that's what happened." I said and he nodded.

" Edwin, Alan!!!" I heard my dad.

" Dad!!" I said and he walked to us.

" Are you both alright, boys!!" He said worriedly.

" Yes, dad. Don't worry we are fine." I said.

" Let me handle this." Dad said and looked at Mr. Jonas.

" Mr. Jonas, I want the culprits behind bars within 7 days. I hope you will take care of this." Dad said in a very dangerous tone.

" Sure, Mr. Stewart." Mr. Jonas gulped and said.
