Kayla Pov

I wasn't going to avoid him anymore, but the strange text message I kept getting was not letting me talk to him. I think it was from dad, and he was trying to use me to get Nicolas money, and I was not going to do that to him so instead, I ignored him for a whole week, okay almost a whole week because today was Friday, and he said he was leaving the office soon because he had to go meet someone. I was lost in my thought before I heard the intercom;

"Mrs. Argent please can you bring Mr. Morris file to my office, it was submitted just now at the front desk," Nic said and I noticed he had been keeping his distance, which was affecting me seriously, and now I was going to give up and let him talk to me so I said.

"Yes, sir. Do you need anything? its time for the worker's lunch"

"Hmm..... yeah, just ice lemonade, thank you," He said and I could hear the excitement in his voice, and I smiled.

I got everything and walked down to his office, and I knocked.

"Come in," he said

"Sir, this is Mr. Morris files, and your Ice lemonade," I said.

"Thank you, Kayla," he said smiling, and I knew that he meant more than just the ice lemonade.

As I was about to walk out, I received another text message from the same number and as I opened it, I screamed, and through my phone.

"Kayla, what's wrong?," Nic came running towards me, and I realized I was still in his office.

I was beyond frightened, I was scared. The message was so terrifying?

"Human....blo..od, me, phone" I didn't even know what I was saying anymore, I was already crying. As Nicolas approached my phone, and looked at the message his eyes became full of anger, it was something I never saw before.

Immediately Nicolas called someone, and also called the police, but before they arrived he asked me some questions

"Hey, hey look at me, it's alright, everything will be fine princess," He said trying to calm me down.

"I am so sorry, Nic, I should have told you from the start, I thought someone was just trying to scare me or pull a prank on me" It's okay princess we will get to the bottom of this okay.

I was beyond angry but I didn't want to scare Kayla, who would send such a message to her, I looked at the phone again, and I kept looking at the scenario, it was the dead body of two adults and on top, it said you would have been dead just like them, but I saved you so now you owed me. It was written in red and there was blood everywhere. I could only think of one person that could do this, and that was Cole.

I sent the picture to my phone and sent it to James, and I told him I won't be able to pick him. He was cool with it, and said he will call Leo. So I told him to come with Leo to my office. I also called the police.

I went over to Kayla, and tried to console her but I could feel her shaking.

The police arrived as soon as I called while Leo, and James arrived two hours later after the police left.
"Princess, this is James, My best friend from Italy and of course you know Leonardo," I said to her and she nodded.

"Hey James, hi Leo" she said and I can see she was confused about why they were here.

"Kayla, what I am about to tell you now is beyond anything you know but I am going to take it slow," I said as James brought out all the papers and pictures.

"Kayla, I think Cole and Camilla are not your real parents and these are your real parents," I said, showing her the pictures of Brandon and lily Argent.

Kayla didn't really look surprised but she began to cry.

"I mean I knew Cole and Camilla were not my real parents or at least I thought of it but now it is all real, now I know why they treated me so badly," she said, still crying.

"There is more to the story but I think they are behind your parent's death and they put your grandmother in a mental hospital but we don't know which one," I told her.

"Wait, grandma is alive?" she asked

"You didn't know?" I asked

"Cole said she died of a heart attack after she heard of my accident and they blamed her death on me," She said crying.

"I found it" we heard James say

"What?" I asked

"I found where they kept her grandmother, she is at Chicago lakeshore hospital," James said.

"Did you just say lakeshore?"Kayla asked

"Yes, Have you been there?" James, Leo, and I asked in unison.

"No but I always receive private files from there and cole always told me never to open it because it is private but I always have backup files on my laptop in case cole couldn't find them," Kayla said.

"Wait do you have your laptop with you?"I asked.

"Yes, it's right here, I will send you all the files," she said.

Kayla sent all the files to my laptop, and James went through it and apparently, we got a lot of answers including the fact that Kayla's grandmother, Nona is not really crazy and she is refusing to get any medication. We even found out they changed her name to isabella and we know her room number.

"Nic, we have a problem," Leo said

"What is it?" I said as I walked up to him.

"Isabella is in a restricted room, no visitation" James said and I knew we were at a lost cause but there was one way out.

"I will ask dad, he will know what to do and he can help us with the police," I said.

"That's a good idea." Leo said.

"Come on Kayla, I will drive you home, we will go to the hospital tomorrow. You guys should go and rest. We have a big day ahead of us" I said and we all left the office for the day.

I got home with Kayla and I could see she was still thinking.

"It is going to be fine, we will figure it out together princess," I said to her kissing her on her forehead.

"Hey, you guys are home?" Megan said.

"We were just making dinner," Agnes said and she was about to say something when she noticed Kayla's face.

"My dear child, what is wrong?" Agnes asked and that is when we narrated the whole story to her.

"OMG........ I am so sorry Kayla" Megan ran to Kayla and hugged her

"Oh child, I am so sorry you have to go through so much pain," Agnes said while consoling her.

"I need to go call father, and ask him to help us". I took an excuse not before giving Kayla an assuring look and she smiled.

I sent the files to dad, and called, he was beyond surprised that his best friend could do such a thing to his own brother. He went through the files, and he said he knew Kayla's grandmother and thought she died of a heart attack. He said they even had a burial for her, and the agent's family. I told him to inform the police about going to the hospital tomorrow, and he was more willing to help.
