Chapter 87: Chapter 87
Max looks all drenched after reading the diary of Jessica, Maya looks at him, he felt like his head is about to burst, and he closed his eyes.
The CCTV footage shows the monster of Fred in detail how he had hit Leah when she beg him to help her and how he dragged her into his car, Max's tears drop, watching his sister's body grabbed onto the floor.
The ride home was silent, with too many thoughts in his head, too many things he try to add up together, how greedy Fred had become that he even allows his child to suffer a crime, he didn't commit.
The door of Lee's mansion opened, and he told them he was going to arrest Jessica that he had found where she is and he had also informed than that Jessica is in critical condition.
How is she? Prime Minister Lee asked as he sat beside Leah.
Max heaved a confusing sigh before he replied.
She is stable but the baby is not yet out of danger, she needs to stay... Max paused, he knows that it was not his decision alone to make, he needed them to consent to whatever decision he made, stretch the diary of Jessica to Lee after he read through it, the man clenched his fist, he can't believe that his friend will think of having a union between their children only to get his property and wealth.
And to crown it, he had hurt his little niece, he is not going to spare him. He grabbed his phone.
Field Marshall was surprised to see the call of the Prime minister.
Hello sir!!!
Good day!!! Prime Minister Lee said, he is still very much mad at Field Marshall's son and one thing, he is not good at, is pretending that he is not mad at someone he is mad at.
Is...
I need you to insure the warrant for arrest, for Mr. Fred Rick, for the attempted murder of my niece, Miss Leah Lee, I don't want him to escape, I will be sending the information about the case to you and Xander, I need his release this very moment.
Alright, sir! Field Marshall said, Sara and Ashley, look at him. The prime minister is ordering the arrest of his best friend, Xander's father, Mr. Fred Rick, he is the real suspect and Xander's release
What? So that man is capable of such evil? Sara asked innocently, Ashley didn't pay attention to their confession anymore, she stand from the dining. Hey, where are you going? Sara asked.
Nowhere, I just want to use the restroom. Ashley hurries into the restroom and calls Rick.
What?
Yes, you do not have time, you should run away because, the prime minister already knows that, you are behind all this madness.
Fine, I will but they shouldn't think I am done with them. Rick ends the call. Dad; what about Jessica? Max asked, the man had been a good uncle and a father to them.
Leah is the victim, so she should make the decision, whatever she wishes that we do to Jessica is what we will do.
Leah look at the prime minister, she felt happy that she is part of this lovely family, even if she hasn't recalled everything, she is happy that for this one week, they have treated her well.
I bet she had learned her lesson and she is willing to take responsibility for her actions, I think we should let her be, after her birth, we could determine what to do with her.
Oh my dear, are you sure you don't want her to go to jail? Emily asked running her hand on Leah's head.
Yes, I don't want anyone getting hurt because nothing happened to me, her actions are all a mistake and I am sure, she regrets it now.
Fine then, if that is your wish...
I also have one more favor to ask.
Go ahead dear! Lee said, she look at him.
Is it possible that Jessica be brought here, so we could care for her, I know her father will never want her back, and even if he wants her, that may not be the kind of environment that she wants her child to grow up in. Everyone stared at her, Leah is now mature, back then, all of them could beat their chest, Leah will want nothing but for Jessica to suffer her misdeeds.
That is huge!!!
Please Dad and Alexia, can you please stop locking her up?
This girl!!! Prime Minister Lee called softly, her puppy eyes is enough to make him fall for her wishes.
Fine... He finally said Emily had tried to convince him to let his daughter out but he had refused this little girl didn't put in an effort before he agree.
Go get that annoying girl. When the guards let Alexia out of the room, she walked slowly out of the room, looking dejected.
Are you alright? Leah hurry to her, she nodded and run her hand through Leah's hair. Do you remember everything now? Do you remember me?
Partially, you will help me remember everything right? Alexia nodded, and Emily hugged her.
Oh my daughter, haven't you been eating the food brought to you by the maid? Emily asked her daughter, she fall on her face.
I don't have an appetite. Alexia said, Father, is it because you have forgiven me that is the reason you let me out? Alexia asked.
No!!! Prime minister said standing on his feet. You should eat because even if you starve yourself from now till the end of time, I will not shift ground. Alexia frowned at her father's words, the man didn't wait for Alexia to patronize him into accepting Beck. Come on mummy, I want my freedom and phone.
Stop being ungrateful, let Father has been, he will come around soon, and he is going to grant your heart's desire, Mrs. Beck. Alexia tittered at Max's words.
Anyways, I am happy that, at least, we could spend some time together now that we are together, you know I missed those days that we all shared. Emily smiles knowing that her daughter, will have something to keep her mind busy.
Oh, I want to meet with Xander, I need to apologize to him.
Why? He is innocent, right? Max nodded.
Yes!!! She screamed in excitement, she found it difficult to accept that Xander is behind Leah's disappearance, Leah look at Emily if she could tell her about Jessica, and Emily nodded.
After narrating everything and how the real culprit is Mr. Fred, not Jessica nor Xander, and how sorry she is for her words in her diary
What do you mean? Prime minister screamed as he is talking on the phone, walking down the stairs, they all look at him. This is bullshit.
Hon, what is it? Emily asked seeing the expression on prime minister Lee's face.
