Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 68

Chapter 68: Trackers

"Aunt Gianna, don’t you think it’s weird that Mom isn’t back by this time?" Kathleen questioned, looking at the large living room clock.

Beside her, on the sofa, was Nathaniel and Kendra. Their hands were clasped on their thighs. They were like sitting ducks. Worried sitting ducks.

Gianna, who was sitting on the opposite sofa, sighed, and looked at the clock again. It was almost seven p.m.

She was beginning to get worried too. What was holding her friend up?

She refused to think that the event of last year was repeating itself again.

Surely, it wasn’t possible. She thought. She didn’t think her heart would be able to bear it.

Athena was the only family she had left, her and the twins.

Just then, her phone rang. It was Aiden.

"Hello, Aiden..."

"Gianna, have you been able to reach Athena since two hours ago? I’ve been waiting for her reply to a certain message, but she’s not available online. I’ve tried calling, but her phone is switched off. I can’t track it either."

Gianna’s hands started shaking. "I’ve been unable to reach her too."

A pause.

"Do you think something has happened to her? She hasn’t returned to the house since she left for the mall three hours ago. Surely, getting children’s cereals shouldn’t take much time. Or did she branch somewhere else?"

A significant pause on the other side spelt doom to Gianna.

"Aiden... you... are not saying ..anything. Is Athena okay?"

The twins exchanged anxious glances, and nodded.

Immediately, they stood up from the sofa, and walked toward their bedroom, with Kendra in tow.

As they moved, Nathaniel turned and gave Gianna a wink, after darting a glance at Kendra.

Gianna widened her eyes, then calmed down, then nodded in understanding, just as Aiden spoke:
