Chapter 12

My father had his hands in ilegal business like selling guns. How could you do something like this? How could he hide this amount of gun in the house? why would he have something like this and I don't know about it .

This was so frustrating but I did not have a choice but to stand up due to the fact that Liam continues to pull me up.

"We need to leave here now. Now that I have seen this gun, I am also feeling suspicious that your father might have placed security cameras that we can't see inside here please let us leave you can be as emotional as you want later we just need to leave here, I need to hack into your father's security camera and delete our entrance" Liam said to me as I slowly got up arranging the wall back the way it was supposed to be before cleaning the things of ,my mother was right, what did she mean by she could not continue the marriage she was trying to say she could not bear the pain anymore.

"I know what your dad did was not right but we do not have the right to lay claims on him he definitely had his reasons for everything " Liam said to me as he tried to hack into my father security cameras while Cyrus just sat there in utter shock, of course she will be shocked my dad of all people was the one hiding tons of guns.

"I mean why didn't we think about all this before sneaking into his room. We did not even think about the security cameras for the dumb people we are," Cyrus said.

"Stop making matters worse Cyrus and just eat whatever you are eating" Liam said to Cyrus who rolled her eyes disrespectfully.

"I was just stating the obvious fact "Cyrus added. I didn't even have the energy to say anything to Cyrus.

"This is not a quarrel, Cyrus. Olivia is still trying her best to get over what is going on and you just want to make things worse " Liam said to Cyrus.

"I am not making things worse, I am just telling the truth. I mean do you know how much my ghost would have haunted Olivia's father if I found out that he had a hand in the Executioner movement, I mean he has a pile of guns hidden within the walls. What else do we expect from him " Cyrus said to Liam.

I could not blame Cyrus for anything because she was also right, I knew how much fear Cyrus had in her when she knew she was the next target by the Executioner, I mean she even lost the contract which she had been dreaming on and when I had finally decided to find another way for her the manager of the firm was killed…if I could just turned back time and investigate my father more….then all this wouldn't have happened.

"I am so sorry Cyrus,this was all my fault and I am trying my very best to make it up to you , please believe me " I said to Cyrus as tears poured down my eyes.

Cyrus stood up to hug me, stroking my back gently.

"Don't blame yourself for any of the things that happened…do you understand" Cyrus said to me while Liam just continued whatever he was doing.

"I have deleted any evidence that could prove we were in that room" Liam said to us few minutes after my constant sobbing…now I was feeling better and was stronger and ready to find out more about my father's illegal businesses

"You are the best in the field that is for sure" Cyrus teased as Liam faked a smile at Cyrus…my mom joined us at the dining table as Liam sneaked away to return the security camera's SD card.

"Mom, you look tired, what is wrong?" I asked my mom as she sat beside me, looking very tired.

" I really enjoyed staying in London alone compared to staying here"

" Do you mean you regret staying with your daughter after all these years ….is it because of Dad?" I asked

" It is definitely not that way,it is just too hectic and now your father makes it seem like you are getting influenced by me in a negative way" my mom said…so that was what all that argument between them was about…I haven't gone against him and he is giving her several warnings.

"Mom don't make him stress you too much no matter what, just always be positive and trust anything I tell you…please mother" I said to her trying to reassure her as I pulled her in for a hug just then Liam peeped his head out from my father's room.

"Come" he mouthed to me before rushing back into my father's room.

I turned at Cyrus who seemed to be dozing off

"Cyrus, please stay with my mother. I need to use the bathroom quickly," I said to her as she offered my mom a glass of milk she was planning to take.

I rushed towards my father's room and slowly went in before my mother would notice. I saw Liam going through a file as he walked up to me …I looked up at the security camera and something seemed to be pasted on it.

"Won't the camera detect us again" I asked Liam who also looked at the camera

" I placed a photo of the room in HD…on the camera so he would think everything was still the same way and I won't have to continuously erase our entrance" Liam explained handing the file he was going through to me.

"Your father has a file of dead people" Liam announced, what else is my dad hiding that isn't a shock to my existence.

"Dead people, how?" I asked Liam

"It means people who were killed anonymously but one thing I don't understand is why your father has such documents and mostly why they were killed. Was your father involved?" Liam said, staring at me like I had answers to everything.

"How do we go about it, should we investigate…." I was stopped immediately as Liam took a photo of the day, collecting it from me and placing it back in my father's drawer.

"You are too slow ..you can't be an investigator this way" he commented, dragging me out of the room as he locked it, my mom was no longer in her seat, only Cyrus who was definitely sleeping.

"Shhh, let's not wake her up" I whispered to Cyrus as I pulled him into the sitting room, turning off the TV.

"You really care about your friend too much…I just hope she cares for you that way" Liam said behind me as I smiled at his words.

" That is why she is my bestie..I ought to care for her" I said quickly turning around but instead I came lips to lips with Liam …who was shocked, did I just accidentally kiss Liam?, He tried to pull away but I held his cheeks with my two hands..I serious

ly don't know what got into my hands movement's, but I am making a huge mistake.
