Searching for Love, Found Wealth

Nancy was glad to see the police searching around the school.

Even gladder to see Charles the famous supermodel as her cousin’s best friend.

A kidnap had happened at school grounds and all CCTV camera were disabled. It would be big news. Against the school.

Cara was being interrogated.

There was a feeling that was off. Why the school just decided that the day should be a holiday and didn’t tell parents prior.

Only told them on the day of the holiday by 8am. By then some kids had already made their way to school. Also, the gate man, who should be at school all the times, wasn’t there.

“Someone tipped the school about the kidnap. They’re involved” Charles concluded. Chloe nodded in support.

That was the only explanation. That’d be brought to light after Kiera has been fund anyway.

A police officer came out from the classroom they were interrogating Cara in.

“That girl isn’t giving anything. And she looks like she’d been through hell. What’s her involvement?” the officer sounded frustrated.

Jasper marched into classroom with Chloe’s phone. He shoved a picture to her face. It was a screenshot he had taken from Jacob’s phone.

It was the mini conversation Jacob had had with the kidnapper posing as Kiera where he was told to address Cara with every of Martinez issues.

Now, the police had already understood, with respect to the kidnap letter, that it was the Martinez that was after Kiera’s.

Still, they needed higher power, more evidence to highlight the main culprits. Or to warrant an arrest.

“Will you say you have nothing to do with this still? Why did they mention you then?”.

But Cara turned her face from Jasper in defiance. Also trying to hide her surprise that the kidnappers would directly involve her.

“Let’s try again” the police officer pulled her face to him, “Who has the Kiera girl?”.

Cara scoffed, I said I don’t know. My threat was based on anger. No harm involved”.

Chris made to bring out the video where Cara had confessed to being involved with Kiera’s kidnap.

But he remembered it also had scenes of Chloe and Nancy beating up Cara. She could use that to play victim.

He goes behind them and try editing out some parts.

Mrs. Bob stomped to Cara and held her by the collar, the police officer went backwards.

“If anything happens to mg daughter, I’d destroy your reputation and the reputation of your unborn children” she narrowed her eyes at Cara.

Cara seemed affected but sighed, “But you have another daughter right? If anything do happen to Kiera, you have a consolation…” but a slap finished her up.

It was from Charles, “Bad child. Why would something happen to her if you’re not involved? And why’s your named mentioned in the text?” his voice was low but his eyes were flaming.

The police officer took Jasper’s phone and read the text, “Someone should call Kiera”.

Nancy immediately interjected that it wasn’t going. It was switched off.

Chris came forward, “Here is a clip I took of Cara admitting to planning Kiera’s kidnap when Chloe and Nancy had asked her”.

The police officer looked stunned yet played the video. The video showed Cara laughing while on the toilet floor.

“No matter what you do, It won’t make Kiera come back. I don’t know what’s happening to her now. But it’s fun” she had clapped cheerfully.

Mrs. Bob glared at her as tears began streaming down her eyes. Charles turned her face to his chest to console her.

“I have another clip” Chris added when that one was over and played another.

“I never knew my prophesy of Kiera’s death would come so soon. Or else I’d be at my house awaiting the news. I warned her but she didn’t listen” she had cried in the video.

“These are happy tears though. Who do you think gets Kiera’s inheritance if she dies? Me, of course” Cara cheered herself while tears streamed down her eyes.

“Ahh, how dare you take videos of me, Chris!” Cara barked limping from her chair to pull him into a cat fight.

She was dragged back to her chair by the police man and then handcuffed.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

She stared down at her cuffed hands in shock while Jasper gave a victorious smile.

“You are a wicked little bastard. You set your own classmate up to get inheritance. What’s your connection with the Martinez?” a female officer asked.

The students began leaving the room, knowing well that they had given the police enough information to deal with Cara.

Cara moved uneasily in her seats, looking for the right words to say.

The female police man showed Cara her phone and threatened to call her parents. Cara rolled her eyes, she cared less if her parents knew.

After all the Martinez were they business partners. It would be good if they did know so that she can be saved from all the humiliation.

Her greatest fear right then was Mrs. Bob’s threat on her reputation and Chris’s video to support it.

She worked dirty to be the feisty bitch she was. She didn’t want that taken away over some worthless girl.

“Why are you limping though? And why were you at the toilet floor in that video?” the policeman snapped his fingers bringing Cara back to her consciousness.

A glimmer of hope sparked in Cara’s eyes. Why hadn’t she thought of her disadvantaged position in the video.

“There you have it! I was being bullied. That’s why I look like sheeit. I was told to say all those things”, She began fake crying.

The officer didn’t believe the last part but called Chris back, “You weren’t supposed to take matter into your own hands. Why’d you have to go physical in her?”.

“Was that the point here? She admitted to her wrong doings” Charles ran his hands through his hair in frustration.

“As a representative of the law, I stand for all things being fair. Even to the offender” the officer replied.

Chloe and Nancy came forward and admitted to it, “But sir, she really confessed those things” Nancy added.

“Not out of my own will, of course” Cara barked. Chris literally face palmed.
