Mafia King & Model Queen

Chapter Thirty Six

(Chapters 1-35 were a dream! I decided to go a different way so it's back to the beginning and this time she won't remember anything from her dreams.)

Karly opened here eyes and looked around and saw she was in the hospital. She looked around and saw Austin and Eric sitting by her bedside asleep. She smiled. Austin was holding her hand and she squeezed it. He woke up and saw her looking at him and he jumped up.

"Oh god sis!" Austin said.

"What? Sis!" Eric said.

"Hey guys what happened?" Karly asked.

"We found you in your apartment, you were beaten," Austin said.

"Jason, he did this," Karly said.

"We figured so we had him thrown in jail, he's awaiting trail," Eric said.

"Did he confess?" Karly asked.

"No but there was video of him running from your building with blood on his hands," Austin said.

"Blood?" Karly asked.

"Sis, he really hurt you bad," Eric said.

"You've been in a coma for three weeks," Austin said. Eric showed her a picture of herself and she winced.

"Is that how I look now?" Karly asked.

"No sis," Austin said. Austin got a mirror and she looked at herself.

"Looks better," Karly said.

"Sis, I found some papers in Dad's safe, one was a marriage license," Austin said.

"Whose marriage license?" Karly asked.

"Hey beautiful," Kevin said.

"Kevin?!" Karly said.

"The marriage license says that you and Kevin are married," Austin said.

"When did that happen?" Karly asked.

"While you guys were in college, Dad set it up," Austin said.

"I looked into it, it's real," Kevin said.

"So what do we do?" Karly asked.

"Be married I guess, unless you don't want to?" Kevin asked.

"This is too big of news to wake up to so I need to get my bearings before I think of anything other than recovering from what that jackass did to me," Karly said.

"I figured that, beautiful, I didn't expect your brothers to saying anything as soon as you woke up," Kevin said.

"Oops," Austin said.

"Should we tell her what else was in there?" Eric asked.

"Tell me," Karly said.

"Well it wasn't in the safe, it was left with Jack to be opened at a certain date, well as soon as Dad died," Austin said. He handed the letter to Karly and she opened it and read it. She covered her mouth with her hand.

"Sis?" Eric asked.

"Ray Davis is not my father, a man named Rick Lawson is, Mom was separated from Ray and was involved with Rick for six months, she found out she was pregnant after she went back to Ray, oh god and it says I have a twin brother that she left on Rick's doorstep with a note, oh god why did she do that, split up twins," Karly said.

"I will go find out, beautiful," Kevin said. Kevin left. Karly looked at Austin and Eric.

"I can't believe this," Karly said.

"Karly?" Robert asked.

"Robert?" Karly asked.

"Hey, I heard you were here," Robert said.

"How?" Karly asked.

"I have a friend who is married to a sister of a police detective," Robert said.

"I thought the police were supposed to be quiet about cases," Austin said.

"He heard it from his wife who heard it from her brother," Robert said.

"So why are you here?" Karly asked.

"I wanted to see how you were, you know I still care about you," Robert said.

"Wait, how do you know each other?" Eric asked.

"We were involved before I got with jackass, it was after Kevin left for Paris and we broke up," Karly said.

"Are you two still involved?" Austin asked.

"No we ended things, too many complications for us to be together," Robert said.

"Are you still?" Karly asked.

"No, I resigned," Robert said.

"Okay what's going on?" Austin asked.

"He was my professor at Columbia," Karly said.

"Oh god," Austin said.

"We started seeing each other secretly, it wasn't for the grades because I certainly did fine anyways, we just had this strong connection and it became physical and it became a full on affair, we ended it because I didn't want him losing his job because of me and I needed the glass for my degree," Karly said.

"I can't believe this," Eric said.

"So are you here because you want her back, is that it?" Austin asked.

"I came to see how she was doing, I still care about her," Robert said.

"I just found out that my dad wasn't my real dad and he set me up in a marriage with my college boyfriend while we were at Harvard so I was married when I was with you and I'm still married and I don't know what to do," Karly said.

"What does your heart say?" Robert asked.

"Honestly I don't know," Karly said. Kevin came in with two guys behind him.

"Karly, this is Rick Lawson and this is Kyle, they want to do a DNA test," Kevin said.

"All right," Karly said. The nurse came in and did the swabs and Austin paid to rush the results. Robert said bye and left. They sat and waited for the results.
