A NIGHT’S MISTAKE
EPISODE FOURTEEN
? ALEXANDER ?
We got there in no time. I was glared they were at home but there was an heated argument going on in the large house.
“We are here to see Mr whatever his fcking name is.” Ryan’s mom said angrily.
The security man by the gate frowned at her. “We don’t have anyone here by that name ma’am.”
I stepped out. “No… It’s Mr Brooke. This woman wants to see him. She’s the mother of the boy who’s been locked up. ” I explained.
” Oh, I see. You can’t go in. As you can hear…. There us something going on right now. ”
” I don’t give a shit what’s going on!” Ryan’s mom yelled and forced her way in.
I followed sharply to hold her back but she was just too forward.
She forced her way into the main entrance and entered the house.
Mr Brooke and his wife, ma’am Anna were yelling words at each other.. hateful words.
“I don’t want to ever see you again in my life! But make sure you leave my son behind!! ” Mr Brooke raved.
Ma’am Anna laughed. ” Son? Did you say son? One whom you’ve ruined his life!” She yelled back.
” You did! With your ruthless night outings.. you’ve destroyed our daughter too! ” Mr Brooke roared.
I stood, transfixed. I glared at Ryan’s mom but she was confused too.
“You are so shameless, Martin! You’ve slept with all the women out there on the street and you have the guts to tell me that! I’m leaving today and with my kids!
I will come back and get divorced! ” Ma’am Anna shouted. Tears were beginning to cloud her eyes.
Mr Brooke laughed. “You’ll do what? I don’t give a fck where you wanna go. Just leave my kids behind. Of course you can take Chloe with you but not my son! ”
Ma’am Anna laughed loud. ” You are mistaken Martin. If I should leave any of the kids behind that would be Chloe cos she’s your only true child! ”
Mr Brooke’s face fell. Everywhere became so still and I wondered if the world was still rotating.
If I heard right.. that meant Daniel isn’t Mr Brooke’s son!
“What… Did you say?” Mr Brooke stammered quietly.
“You heard me Martin Brooke. Daniel isn’t your son.
Yes, he’s not. I should let you know that so you won’t continue claiming what’s fcking not yours! “Anna said, breathing heavily.
I watched Mr Brooke’s hands clench into a tight fist.
His hardened muscles stirred up. My heart started beating fast.
“Let’s get out of here.” I whispered to Ryan’s mom.
We were still standing at the end entrance of the hallway.
“No kid. I’m not leaving here till I’m able to talk to that man! He’s Mr Brooke, right?”
I nodded and returned my eyes to the silent scenario.
” Who’s Daniel’s father?” He asked quietly.
Ma’am Anna breathed in. ” Maxwell Edgar. The doctor at Royal care.
That night…. I was furious when I saw you with two of my eyes making love to a nurse there in one of the hospital rooms.
I was furious and frustrated and I got the doctor to sleep with me in his office.
You should remember that day… We went for a blood test…. ”
Before ma’am Anna could complete her statement, Mr Brooke ran forward with his hands like claws and grabbed her neck.
Ma’am Anna screamed as Mr Brooke’s hands squeezed at her neck.
Within a minute, ma’am Anna was on the ground. She went limp instantly.
I covered my mouth from screaming. He’s killed her!
Ryan’s mom grabbed my hand and together we hid behind a wall, panting hard.
It appears that Mr Brooke didn’t Know we were inside the house with them.
The door bursted open and three security men came in.
“Get out!!!!!” We heard him roar at the men. They scampered back out.
I tried taking a peep at Mr Brooke… To know what he was going to do with ma’am Anna laying at the ground but I couldn’t see anything cos Ryan’s mom was dragging me back.
“Being a witness is dangerous and risky. He must not get to see us! ” Ryan’s mom whispered with fright.
I went still too. How could someone be so callous to the point of killing his wife?
“What do we do now?” I asked.
“We wait here till we can get out.. then we are gonna inform the police and then I can be able get my son back. ”
I managed to strain my neck and saw him wrapping up ma’am Anna with a big white blanket.
