In The Name Of Trouble

Chapter 67

"I'm sorry but, how long have you known her?" He said as he got two cups of coffee from the kitchen.

"I'm her brother. What do you mean how long?" He plopped his legs on the coffee table. Thomas took this time to examine him. He had black hair, and brown eyes to match the dress he was wearing, a brown leather jacket and denim.

"Where were you all these days?" He handed a cup to him and sat down.

"We....... Were never close."

"...... Ok so Steve-"

"Steven."

"Right. So there's this international presidential meeting coming up and I'm going for it. Gabe is going to be there and so will Cash. Are you coming?"

"Yes. Anything to get her back."

"Very well Steven. One more thing.... How willing are you to get her back?"

"Is that even a question?.....

... I will die for her."
.............

She never came out of her room. The only thing Larson gave her to eat was some soup and bread two times a day. Water came early in the morning in a big bottle which she survived 24 hours with.

There was a knock on the door and the psychopath came in with a smile. Must be because of the dress she's wearing or something worse.

"I'm sorry baby. I got a gift to make it up to you." He pulled out a box and opened it and inside it was a beautiful ring. Cash looked at it with awe.

"Is that..... Diamond?"

"Yes. One of a kind. Black jewelry are rare you know." He took the ring out and motioned her to take it.

"Woah!!! This is black gold while the stone is black diamond." She kept staring at the beautiful thing.

"You seem to know your jewels..... Right... You've stolen these before?" He kept the box back in his pocket.

"Twice, but they're so hard to find. Those jewels went for a trillion!"

He smiled looking at her. Cash looked up at him "Why are you giving me this?"

"Why not? I can give my baby girl whatever she deserves."

"Seems more than that."

"Well no use lying. That's an advance gift. You'll receive more if you do the job right."

Thought so but it was nice thinking that she received it for something else but never mind. "Job huh? Who's it this time?"

"For years I've been waiting for this presidency post. And so was another person. I want you to kidnap them. Both him and whoever he used that plus one for. I know that he'll do anything to ruin this for me. We need to get rid of him."

"How's he even allowed in the party? You need to have a pass...... Unless.." She looked up at him with her eyes wide open.

"You're not the only child are you? There's someone else. Who is it?"

"My brother, James. He's actually the elder one. I managed to get rid of him..... For a while."

"Ooh lovely."

"Ok that's more than enough details. You look weak. Come down and have some food. I'm sorry I did this to you." He kissed her on the head and Cash froze but regained her composure.

Someone kissed her... She blinked. Yes she's kissed many but this felt..... warm, real.

Bullshit! You hate him.

And you will kill him.
