Chapter 48

Unknown POV

"What! "  *banging noise of slapping the table* "after all she's not dead! "

"Yes! ", another woman said. " She's quite the fighter. But don't worry I've got people to kill her before she could wake up from her coma".

"Well done! ", the woman in red dress praised. " The sooner she's dead the better, I really hate her, ugh! "

"Don't worry, we'll have good news sooner", another woman in her mid twenties smirked. Looking at her watch she said, " We might get the good news at anytime ".

As soon as the woman said that there was a beeping noise of new messages.

" That was fast", the woman in red dress said.

"Yeah, she texted me, the work is done", the another woman laughed in joy.

" Let's celebrate ", the woman in red dress opened up a red wine bottle.

In the hotel suit the two women were celebrating their victory with red wine cheering. But before they could sip the red wine there's a loud banging noise of door breaking. They were startled because of the banging noise. But before they could inspect what is going on they were Saraounded by a few cops and black suit men. All of them were aiming their their gun at them. Panicking the two women screamed about what is going on, who are them! But those man didn't say anything, they only told them they were under arrest.

The two women were dumbfounded, why they were being arrested. They also feared that their scam about killing Jade/Jessica were exposed. But they still didn't admit defeat. They screamed at the officers but in vain. The officers tied them up in handcuffs and they weren't at bit of gentle while doing so. They were pissed because of the scene and screaming those women were doing. But their screaming silenced after hearing a domineering voice.

"Well, isn't it Sandra? I thought you were dead! But here you are alive and doing well."

The woman in red was indeed Sandra. Aspen's biological mother.

Looking at the direction of the voice the woman in red's eyes became big.

"Yo-you! Weren't you severally injured and in coma? " Sandra asked.

Xavier and Jessica indeed knew about someone keeping their eyes on them long before. So, they planned all this to catch the mastermind behind the scenes.

But not answering the question Xavier looked at the other woman.

"I never thought Jade's cousin would also be here, Katie isn't it? ", he smirked.

Katie began to panic. Panicking she blurted out, " You don't have evidence, we didn't kill Jade ".

Smirking Xavier said, " I never said anything about Jade. Aren't you a guilty little girl? "

Not knowing what to reply Katie could only open her mouth then close it.

Hearing that Sandra could only face palm seeing the stupidity of Katie. She knew they were doomed. So, she said nothing only laughed like a insane person.

She began to scream, "even if you caught me, Jade is already dead, haha", she laughed like a insane person. " Also 8 years ago, I did their accident! I kidnapped her and hit her hear, I also brainwashed her to forget about you, I tortured her until she forgot everything, haha, that was fun watching her being brainwashed, haha! Everything I did", she said like a psychopath.

Hearing all those things Xavier shrivered in rage. At last he couldn't control it and slapped her so hardly that she fainted. He wanted to attack again but the people stopped him to calm down. Xavier never raised his hands on women but hearing all those things that Jade had to go through because of Sandra, he couldn't control his anger and slapped her.

The officers took the both women in the police station.

Reaching at the hospital private room Xavier slowly opened the door and saw Jessica playing with Zian and Aspen. Seeing the scene in front of him Xavier couldn't control his tears, he remembers the things Jessica has to go through. He quicken his pace and hugged all of them in his embrace. Giggling both Aspen and Zian called out, "daddy"!

Kissing both kids forehead and Jessica's lips he mumbled, " I'm full now!

Jessica didn't understand the meaning behind his words but she smiled brightly anyway hugging him. They did a family hug and laughed happily.
