Chapter 24

"You both go ahead I need to go talk to him" Lina pulled away. Before Archie could say anything more she was out of the gate.

He sighed, "Does she know what she's getting into"

"We are supposed to be happy for her not scold her" said Harry.

"Be happy, that man is a monster and I can't let our only sister be trapped by him?" he said back.

"We are not sure it was him and there is no evidence so it's time you let that go" Harry tapped his shoulder, "And Lina used to tell us everything but now we either find out from her friend or she slips up and does... If you keep doing this the distance between us will grow even more"

Archie frowned, "But am worried about her"

"I know but Lina isn't young anymore to be controlled by us now. She has her ideas & thoughts so for now let's watch her & when she needs us then we can intervene"

Archie scoffed, "You actually said something that makes sense"

Harry smiled, " It's all because I don't want you to interfere as she gets close to him. It's the only way for me to get a chance to meet him again"

Archie sulked, "You're crazy," he said and walked away.

....

Lina ran out to bump into Avril, he was standing next to his car. His eyes looked down to her and Lina smiled.

"Sorry, I thought you had left" she muttered.

"I decided to wait," he said.

"Wait? For me?" she asked.

"Mmm, so we could go back together," he said.

"Huh, what if I didn't come out right now"

"I would still wait, let's go" he said moving to open the door for her.

She looked confused but nodded and got in. He got in too and Tony with the driver sat in the front and set off.

Lina could feel his eyes on her so she turned to face him, "Something wrong or do I have something on my face?" she asked.

"No you don't, am wondering what is it that makes me act this way" he said.

"Act what way? She asked.

"Differently "he stated

Lina scowled not understanding what he was saying. What did he mean by different?

"Tony we are not going back to the company let's head to Mother's "Avril suddenly said.

"What, your mother's and why is that. I thought we were heading to the company "protested Lina.

"I changed my mind, "he said.

Lina dropped back to her seat in anger," Now your the lair "

"Am not, I just simply changed my mind " Avril said.

"If you said we are going to the company & then changed it to something else that definitely lying, "she said.

Avril sighed and silence filled the car, after taking a turn Lina noticed them now surrounded by long green trees. And the driver was still going on. Tony and Avril were quiet she blinked.

"What if he was taking her somewhere to kill her, she did threaten him," she thought.

Lina moved," Tony please stop the car "

Tony turned to them glancing at his boss who didn't say anything.

"TONY, I said stop the car "she repeated.

"Boss? "he said

"Go ahead "Avril replied.

After the car was parked Lina stepped out, and Avril turned to her still inside.

"Are you don't sightseeing so we can go? "he asked.

"No am not and who said I was, I tagged along because I thought we were going to the office but you decided to come here so now am going home "

Avril pushed her away and closed the door," Suit yourself, I just hope you don't get eaten up by wild bears "he said.

Lina sneered, turned away and walked back to where they came from. She heard the car drive off and didn't look back.

"One minute he cares the next his grumpy, what an annoying man "she said walking along the side of the road.

.....

Avril arrived at his mother's place.

"Oh son, I didn't expect to see you until next month "his mother said.

"Had time "he said.

She smiled hugging him," What's wrong you seem irritated "

"Nothing, I just wanted to see you but something upset me on the way, "he said.

"Did you meet one of those annoying wild bears? They have been on a rampage recently and giving us a hard time. The authorities have caught most of them but one seems to be still out there "she said.

"Bear, "he said and she nodded.

"But don't worry you arrived quite early, it's always out in the night attacking cars or passersby "she said.

Avril was up in seconds walking back to the door.

"Avril, where are you going son? "she called.

Tony and his mother followed him outside." Son, what happened? ".

"She's in danger, I have to go, "he said.

His mother turned to Tony," It's the new intern, she came with us but asked to be left in the middle of our way here ".

His mother gasped but by the time they turned to where he was Avril was gone.
