262: THE FEELING

ARIEL’S POV

Gazing at the screen, I could only wonder why Laura was calling again. It could be that she had found Harriet. I hoped so; I didn’t want that psychopath to get away.

I answered the phone call. “Yes, Laura?”

“Ariel, you have to come here quickly.”

“Why? What happened?”

“I found two dead bodies here. Two of my servants are dead. And it’s obvious Harriet is the one who killed them.”

“Harriet killed them?” I spoke, trying to grasp the situation.

“That’s what I think. Is this woman that brutal?” Laura quizzed.

Well, what do you expect from a lady who killed a priest?

“I don’t know, but I’m on my way.”

“Okay, hurry up,” she said before ending the call.

I set my eyes on Janice, and she was still sleeping. I didn’t want to wake her up, so I think it would be best if she just stayed with Luke in the meantime. At least she gets to have fun with the two little boys

around here.

I also wanted to visit Andre at the hospital to check up on him, but I would have to postpone that until later. I needed to go to that house to see this whole Harriet situation.

With Janice still sleeping, I walked out of the room. I went to Luke’s room, and he was making a phone call. I waited for him to end the conversation, but it went on for minutes. He eventually turned around, and that was when he saw me standing at the door.

“Hold on, I’ll get back to you,” he said before ending the call. “Ariel? I thought you were gone.”

“No, I’m still here. But I’ll be going now.”

“Okay, that’s great.”

“Yeah, about that. I’m not going to be taking Janice along with me.”
