Chapter 40 An hidden truth

Elle opened her closed eyes and then looked up at him. Langford was groaning, throwing his head backwards. Then her eyes trailed down to where she shot him and she realised that she shot him on the leg.

Elle heaved a sigh of relief and then brought down her hands still glaring at Langford.

"I could have killed you but you are still very useful to me.." She said.

Elle smirked.

"Well, I won't. I will kill you when I'm done using you…" Elle said and then turned to leave but Langford's voice stopped her.

She rushed to him and held him. That was when she discovered he was unconscious already.

"No! What's was he about to say? He was saying something important..' She told herself.

"Hey.." She called tapping him lightly.

"Mr. Mayor, continue. Go ahead with what you were saying!" She snapped at him but there was no response.

Elle sighed and stood straight and that was when it hit her. She remembered his words again.

"If he can kill his wi.."

Her eyes widened.

"But then, Lauren is his wife. So how then is she alive? Dang! This is confusing.." She says and loosened her hair.

"Could it be that he was talking of his late wife, Jason's mum? But didn't she commit suicide?"
