Chapter 33

"I will like to ask some questions if you don't mind" Mr. Vincent said.

"You are free to" Liam replied.

"Have You in anyway offend anyone?" Mr. Vincent asked. Liam was quite for a while trying to think. But he just can't recall offending anyone.

"I... Don't think I have..." Liam replied.

"What about your family... Does your family have any enemy?" Mr. Vincent asked.

"I don't think there is any" Liam replied feeling a little confused.

"Huh... This is really complicated..." Mr. Vincent said with a frustrated tune.

"sir,.... Why did you ask this questions all of a sudden?" Liam asked.

"Just trying to see ofif we can have a clue of the person responsible for this" Mr. Vincent said pointing at Liam's abdomen. Liam recalled everything thing that happen last night. The man on black cardigan... His body structure, the way he walks, his voice... Everything is somehow familiar. But he just can't remember where or how they meet before.

"I will need some time... The man who stabbed me... I think we've meet somewhere, but I just can't remember" Liam replied.

"'It's OK... You have all the time in the world to think about it." Mr. Vincent said.

"Thank You sir..." Liam replied.

"I should let you rest" Mr. Vincent said while standing up to leave.

"Sir... Please help me tell Cassandra I... Want... To... See... Her..." Liam said feeling a little bit scared. Mr. Vincent halted at the door and smiled before going out. He eventually bombed into Cassandra.

"Oh... You are here..." Mr. Vincent said.

"Looking for me?" Cassandra asked with a big smile on her face.

"No... Your boyfriend is..." Mr. Vincent replied with a mischievous look which made Cassandra shy.

"Uhmmmm.... Ok" Cassandra managed to say and ran into her room.

"Hey" Liam said with a smile immediately he saw her.

"Hey... How are you feeling?..." Cassandra asked with her head down.

"Much better" Liam replied.

"I'm sorry... I couldn't do anything yesterday..." Cassandra said.

"Come here...." Liam said stretching out his hand.

"You have really helped. If you weren't there at that moment... I would have been dead by now" Liam said while patting her head gently. After a while of silence, something popped into his head.

"I guess I asked you to go home before the incident happened?" Liam asked thoughtfully.

"Yeah...." Cassandra replied.

"You did not leave right? Because you should be at home or... Almost at home before the fight" Liam said as a matter of fact.

"I... I... Actually hide in the bushes... Was scared he was going to hurt you" Cassandra stammered.

"Thank You... For being stubborn" Liam said and smiled.

Cassandra:"....."

.....

"Sir, the boy is nowhere to be found" Gary reported to Mr. Robert.

"Could it be that... Someone helped him or, he died and someone hide the corps?" Mr. Robert asked but the question was more to him than Gary.

"I went there this morning and there is no trace of blood on the ground." Gary said with his head down.

"On trace... Of blood...." Mr. Robert repeated.

That morning, David and James made sure there was nothing that will lead the enemy to were Liam is.

"Are You sure no one else know about this?" Mr. Robert asked.

"I made sure of that. Not even Diana" Gary replied.

"Good... But you have to find out where he is..." Mr. Robert said with a devilish smirk on his face.

Unknown to them, David saw Gary at the park that afternoon and he suspected him so he disguised as one of Mr. Robert's guard and eaves dropped on their conversation.
