It's All About the Love

Chapter 4

She turned pale, she fell back but managed to cling on to a chair. She grabbed the phone and dialled 999. They police arrived within several minutes. They brought her to the station to question her, they also brought in her father, her brother and Jeanette. They were all murder suspects. The only one without an alibi was Jeanette. She was released and she went back to the house. She began to talk to a young Detective Sergeant, her name was Emma Summerhayes. They were chatting for a while and then hey noticed a figure in the bushes across the road, DS Summerhayes ran after him, she caught up with him and jumped on his back throwing him to the ground. He was wearing a pale red hoodie and black skinny jeans. He was arrested and brought to the station for questioning.

"Name please?" DC Summerhayes asked

"John Smith" he replied

"I've only began questioning you and I'm already fucking sick off you, so either you tell me your name or I'll rip your motherfucking ears off. A mans been killed and you're now a suspect, so speak up you bastard"

"Gary Johnson" He said angrily

"Now we're getting somewhere dick head"

"I didn't kill him, I came to see him and his wife, I wouldn't waste my time killing a lowlife scumbag who doesn't give two fucks about his child"

"What's that meant to mean?"

"I'm their son, they put me up for adoption 19 years ago and I wanted to make them pay"

"So you killed him?"

"No, I didn't get there on time"

DC Summerhayes decided to keep him in custody.

Another police office this time male, arrived to talk to Charlotte, his name was DC Gordon Skinner.

After a horrendous day all the suspects were released except Gary. Charlotte went shopping to take her mind off things, she arrived at Jeanette's to find a letter lying in the hall, she opened it and in large black font it read "I HAVE YOUR PRECIOUS JEANETTE, I WANT £200,000 OR ELSE SHE DIES"

Charlotte fell to her knees and wept.
