The Lycan King’s Rejected Soulmate by Fire Sprout

Chapter 84

Avery

I was numb. My hand continued to clutch the phone Sadie left tightly. I could not will my fingers to release the phone.

It felt like holding the phone would increase the chances of Fredo appearing on the phone’s screen again.

I noticed that Fredo did not say he was working for Sadie. He did not mention the person he was working for.

He did not mention a name.

I had a nagging suspicion that the person behind this was that mysterious benefactor supporting Sadie.

I don’t know this person that saved Sadie. Why would this person conspire to hurt me and my family?

Anger, sadness and other emotions intertwined with each other to form something unknown within me. I did not even know what to feel.

I just felt off.

I did not call the driver to pick me up but I found myself on our front porch.

I did not know how I did it. I did not know if I ran all the way back or I walked.

I just found myself staring at the door to the Barrington’s mansion.

Everything was a blur and I could not think.

A numb ringing kept echoing in my head.

I knocked on the door before it dawned on me that I had a key to the house too.

I searched for the key before opening the door and letting myself in.

Chaos greeted my sights as soon as I entered the house.

Furnitures, appliances and decorations was strewn everywhere. The house looked like a whirlwind passed through it.

Dead guards laid on the floor and the smell of iron hung in the air.

The blood was so heavy that when I inhaled, I could taste the iron in the blood on my tongue.

My heart sank.

I knew I had already concluded that Fredo really took my kids but a tiny part of me wished it wasn’t true.

A tiny part of me wished I was mistaken and my kids were still in the house.

Seeing the house in this state snuffed out the flame of hope in me.

I was devasted all over again.

I saw Mrs Barrington sitted on the floor beside the upturned chair.

A surge of anger rushed through me.

I was angry at her.

イ

I wanted to scream at her and I wanted to cry. I wanted to know why she couldn’t protect my kids well.

Right then and there, I woke up. I knew my thoughts were naive and childish.

I could see the dead guards clearly. Mrs Barrington had done her very best by putting up a fight.
