Chapter 46 He Won’t Lose Her Again!

“Shit!” Cedric cursed as he thought of the possibilities. He lit a cigarette as he got into the car, slamming the door hard.

Baz cowered in fear. He knew very well that Cedric was not a smoker. The only time Cedric had allowed himself to succumb to alcoholism and cigarettes was when he thought Maia had died. Yet here he was, smoking again because of her.

“Find out where she is at once!”

He would not allow himself to lose her again.

“Yes, sir.”

Ten minutes later, Cedric got Maia’s exact location.

“Mr. Larkin, Ms. Maia left for Eldertown 20 minutes ago.”

“Eldertown?” Cedric asked slowly.

Baz nodded.

“Get me tickets for Eldertown immediately,” Cedric demanded.

“I’m sorry, but the last train has already left.”

“Are there any other train stations nearby?”

“There’s one, but we’ll have to drive another 290 kilometers to Eldertown. Perhaps we could get tickets for the first train the next morning?” Baz asked.

“Get me those tickets tonight,” Cedric replied firmly.

“Yes, boss.”

As soon as Cedric finished smoking, he tossed his cigarette into the nearby trash can and drove off into the night.
