I was angry. No! I was sad that I had fallen for my dad's murderer. The worst part was he knew he was the one but he kept getting closer to me yet deceiving me that we had something special.

That was cruel. I pointed the gun to his forehead to reciprocate the head shot he gave dad. Instead, he stood there calmly which began to annoy me. Both of them didn't look scared at all like they thought I was weak or something. They underrated me.

I wanted to pull the trigger at that moment but, I had to ask Bran just one question. "Why?"

"Why what?" He rose an eyebrow.

"Are you fucking acting like you don't know what I'm talking about?!"

"I don't know shit."

"Behave. If not, she'll send a bullet to your head." Kelvin chipped in. At least, one of them was getting scared which made me feel better lol.

Bran then looked at the chain and back at me. Then, his face lightened and he nodded. "Now, I understand." He walked to the table in the center and poured wine into a glass cup.

I got irritated instantly. "Don't you dare take advantage of the fact that I've not pulled the trigger. Answer my question!"

He cleared his throat. "I knew you and Cop Martial had some sort of relationship that day I witnessed him taking you to prison. I couldn't let him recognize me by the way, that's why I let him take you."

I frowned. "That's not the answer to my question."

"He made a statement that day....I warned you Teresa and look where your stubbornness has gotten you. I told you to stay out of this.... those were his exact words."

"How does that matter now?"

"It means that, he looked out for you so you guys are...friends. Which also mean that you go to his office from time to time because of your dad's murder. Incase he has gotten any info for you. Maybe that's how you guys became friends."

What was he doing? He was correct though.

He continued. " So you saw this chain...which is mine...in his office...you should've brought it back to me cause my dad was mad that I lost it..."

"Do you think I'm playing Bran? Are you that daft? You killed my...hero and you're busy doing an investigation on how I became friends with a cop!"

"I expected this whole thing to have occurred a long time ago so you disappointed me but, I also thought you were just playing along so you could get information about Demorte from me. Now I know the truth. You just never thought I could kill your father."

'Because I had feelings for you since the day I met you.' My subconscious added. "Now I know that you're a wicked and vile person who murdered my dad."

"You're wrong. I didn't kill your dad. Why would someone who wants to help you with the case be the murderer? Oh well, I can do something like that but I'm attracted to you so I won't do that to you." He said.

"You think you can deceive me?"

He shrugged and said. "I looked into the whole story and the reason why you burnt your dad's car. I figured that there was a Mr Charlie in the center of it all. I got pictures of him and noticed that I've seen him talking to Demorte before. So, I told Kelvin to help me out since Demorte isn't happy with me after that Charlie's case. That's why kelvin is here."

My eyes brightened but I still didn't believe him.
"Demorte is the drug lord Mr Charlie sold the car to. He is also the one that Mr Charlie was owing money."

Hey guys. Just in case any one is still confused. Check chapter thirty five (trienta y cinco) to refresh your memory on what Martial said to Teresa when he wanted to arrest her. Plus remember that Mr Charlie and Charlie are two different people. Charlie is Bran's late friend. Just clearing the air guys. Make that little star shine.
