Chapter 32
I've been trying to follow up with the inspector. Still, nothing. I don't know who it can be but I have a feeling it has to do with Maddox.
Its either he was betrayed, like he trusted the partner and the partner ended up leaving him in the fire, tricking him or he decided to hurt himself just to convince me that he doesn't have a hand in it.
I already got the names of those who attended the function and there's no possible suspect there. My enemies are Maddox, Chanel and Lucas. Maybe just all Lucas's family. I know I have more.
I've conquered a lot of them. Lucas is no more alive anyways. I have no idea where Chanel is and what she's up to. And as for Maddox, I'm watching him closely.
I dressed up in just a grey sweater and sweat pants. I was so exhausted. I just needed to know who the person was and destroy that person already.
I want to meet Maddox.I already told him to come over. He'll be over soon. He apparently would come cos Lexi is here. He's been looking for one way or the other to get to her.
I just had apple pie bake for breakfast. I barely have had a word with Lexi since the fire incident.
Sir, Maddox is here and you said you never want to see him here. Adonis said to me. I know. Let him in. Just now. Don't make him enter next time without my consent. I said and he nodded. He left and I sat on my bed.
Just then Maddox barged in. I never expected him to knock anyways. The next time your helpers or whatever you call them delay me by the gate just to inform you that I'm around, I'll break down the gate, destroy them and then you. He gritted sitting on my couch.
You're just mouthed. You can't do anything. I said. What do you want? He asked coldly. What do have to do with the fire incident? I asked.
Why would you ask me that?! He yelled. I know you have something to do with it. I said cool.
Good for yourself then. Why would I want to hurt myself?! He snapped.
You can try to be smart but you know I'm always smarter. You hurt yourself deliberately not to get caught or be counted amongst the suspects. I said looking at him quizzically.
He averted his gaze away from me. I don't have your time. He said. Neither do I. I just need you to answer this question. You know I would never call you to my house for no important reason. I said.
And you know I'd never come to your house when you want me to. I only came here because of Lexi. He said.
I know. You need to find more ways you can use to destroy her right without getting caught? I raised an eyebrow.
Look. If I have to do anything to destroy you, I won't be afraid of getting caught. I would be proud. I wouldn't destroy Lexi. Its because she means something to you and that's it. He said.
Then why are you afraid of being caught after trying to kill me in the hotel? I asked him. I wasn't the one! Why don't you ask others?! He snapped angrily.
Its an offence Maddox. Its arson and you'll have to pay fine. I said.
How would you know its me?! What is your problem?! What part of I'm not the one don't you understand?! I did nothing! He growled.
You don't have to be mad. Just explain using your words. I smirked at him looking away.
I could feel his hot gaze piercing through me. He was real mad. Just then, his phone rang. He looked at me. Then the phone. He picked it and walked out.
After sometimes, he came back. Who was that? I asked him. How's it your business?! He yelled. You spent so much time talking to the person. And it seems like its something confidential. I said.
Then if it is, why are you asking?! He said sharply. Alright then. So just tell me what you know about the incident? I asked him calmly.
I'm leaving. He said and turned. Why are you avoiding the question? I snapped.
Why again do you avoid questions?! Isn't it because you don't want to answer it?! He hollered and walked out. I sighed.
Its him. Its that easy to know. He's too dumb to do a thing without anyone finding out. I can easily report him but I've got no proof against him. It'd be of no use. I'll just inform the inspector and we'll work on the proof.
I dialed his number and he picked it almost immediately. Mr. Hurtado, how're you? Have you any clue? He asked. Inspector, I don't know. Haven't you gotten anything? I asked.
No. We're still on the search. The owner of the hotel is really furious. Don't you have anything? He asked. I don't know. I think I know the person but I have no proof. I said.
Just tell me who it is. I'll get to the bottom no matter what. He said. It's my brother. I revealed. Your family isn't normal right? He laughed and I smirked. Yes it isn't. I said.
Alright we'll try to get to him. Maddox right? He asked. Yes sir. But I have a request inspector. I said. What is it? He asked.
Sir please if we find out its really my brother, can you handle him over to me? I requested. Why? I doubt I can do that. We'll have to make him pay fine. I don't know him but he'll have to pay later. He said.
Please sir. Trust me. I won't take his side. In fact, I've been trying to destroy him ever since. I wouldn't help I promise. I said between my teeth. But why? He asked.
Its more of a family issue. I want to get rid of him myself. Sir, this isn't the first and it wouldn't be the last. We've got our ways. I pleaded.
But he's tampered with another person's property and its illegal. Its against the law and its our job not yours. He said.
He's to pay fine right? I'll pay it but I promise to bring his dead body to you or I'll kill him right in front of you. Believe me sir. I keep my promises. I said.
I don't know yet sir. I'll get to you later. Let's first find out if he's the one really or not.
Then, I'll get back at you. He said. Alright sir. Just tell me when you know. I said and disconnected the call.
I promise I'll get rid of Maddox. He doesn't know anything.
