'What the hell is that? I am still shaken up," Trisha said.
Tiara was the one that talked to the cops, they had called the cops as soon as they confirmed that the man behind the wheels was unconscious, blood was trailing down his face and he had his head on the steering wheel.
Luci was the one that called both Zayn and Alexander while Sapphire remained huddled up in a corner with Gladys, the men arrived so fast that they wondered if they were just around the corner when they came.
They had to go to the station the next to give a statement later and the man would be taken to the hospital and kept under the police watch twenty four seven.
'I think of anybody else that can do this except members of the Conrad family. None of us have any beef with anybody, she is the one that just got the position assumed by every member of the Conrad Family," Tiara said to them and they all nodded in agreement, that was what she told the cops too, they were probably going to investigate all of them.
'It is not quite clear who it might be since all of them are against her one way or the other, but the only person that I suspect the most is Melissa, she is desperate." Luci said, glancing at Sapphire who was wrapped in Alexander's embrace, she looked so shaken up, since they had narrowly escaped the accident, the only time she had opened her mouth was when Alexander arrived, she was very attached to the man.
'Poor girl must be suffering from an emotional rush. She was shot, her son was kidnapped and then, maybe, her sister is planning to kill her in a staged hit and run accident." Gladys said when she saw Luci look at Sapphire who was in the car with Alexander.
'I think that Felix has been laying low for too long too. He is not usually the type of person to just sit around and watch everything unfold, I still have issues with not suspecting him, one fact that I know is that Late Madam Emiliana definitely does not trust her, the fact that he is doing nothing is unsettling, I would rather he is the one behind this accident," Tiara said and Trisha just glanced around.
'How are you all feeling? You just escaped a narrow death?" Zayn asked, he had been talking on the phone with one of his men.
'Just so-so, I definitely know that I would slip into a tired state when all the hyperactive energy has been exhausted. I would be in a trance then." Trisha was the first to speak and the rest nodded.
'Thank you all for being here for Sapphire," They heard Alexander's voice and jumped a bit, they didn't know when he got down from the car.
'It was nothing. We would have all died together if nothing was done anyway. Is she okay?" Tiara replied, staring at Alexander whose brow was furrowed in worry.
'Yes, she is stable now." He replied, but it was obvious that he was still worried about something. 'I would like to thank you guys someday but I would like to get Sapphire home more. Do you want to come along or would you prefer to go your own way?" He asked and they shook their heads at him.
'You go first. We will catch up with her later." Trisha said and he nodded.
'I would take it that you owe me one Alexander, I will definitely use that someday later," Tiara said, smiling and Alexander let out a small smile.
'I would be expecting and not forget that," he said and with that he went to his car with Zayn beside him and he chatted with him for a minute before driving off.
'Seriously, he is so cool," Gladys said and Trisha nodded.
'That's right. I wish that I can have someone coming to get me at the speed of light once they hear that I almost got into an accident. If someone was to call them at home, I am sure that they would start debating whether to show up next week," Trisha said with a chuckle and both Tiara and Luci snorted at her.
'Guys, I have got to go with Zayn now. Heather is on the road, I think that she has Andrew with her, it would be best to stop her as soon as possible," Luci informed them, glancing at Zayn who was standing beside his car and they nodded.
'Best of luck, I hope you are able to get him. It would ease your guilt." Gladys said and she nodded before hugging them briefly, she marched up to Zayn after that and they left.
'Should I drop you off at home?" Tiara asked both of them since it was her car.
'What do you plan to do?" Gladys asked, Tiara's phone rang at that moment and she checked it.
'Originally I planned to go home but I just got some info from my men. The kid is not with Heather, he is with some of her girls, I think Jessica, and so I plan to double cross them," Tiara explained.
'Forget about dropping us off at home, we had better hit the road now."
'I have some people after them," Tiara said as they entered the car.
'He would feel more comfortable if he saw his mom's friends instead, I am sure that Sapphire would have mentioned our name maybe once or twice," Trisha said and they both turned to stare at her in surprise.
'You are going with us too?" Gladys asked and Trisha nodded.
'What about your in-laws?"
'Fuck them all! They never cared about me anyways, it would be of great joy if they brain splatter in red all over the television screen," Trisha said and they all chuckled.
'That's so graphic. Don't make me imagine it," Tiara said as she continued driving and they all laughed.

'Park down Ms. Smith. You are advised to surrender yourself, right now and right here," Heather heard behind her but she would be damned if she listened to them.
She came out today to meet with Sapphire and Alexander, she wanted to negotiate with them but the clowns were taking her as some sort of joke and they sent cops down her ass.
'Damn it if I don't send that kid to some faraway countryside, they are pissing me off!" Heather said and turned her motorbike to a narrow alleyway.
She had a feeling that this would happen so that's why she used a motorbike and not a car, which is also the reason why she dropped the kid off with Jessica, she just didn't expect that they would not be here by themselves.
She looked behind her but didn't see anyone, she squinted her eyes to fish out the cop that was tailing if they were hidden somewhere. She exhaled in relief when she saw that she had no one after her.
She turned to park the motorbike and caught her breath, she looked left after she parked the bike and jumped off sideways when she saw someone had aimed at her with a gun, the bullet missed.
She remained on the floor and rolled for a bit, she was about to sneakily get up when motorbikes and cars parked around her. She looked at the men getting out of the car and resting on the motorbike while staring at them with amusement in her eyes.
Luci and Zayn got out of one of the cars and stared at her with leveled expression, she scoffed in disbelief when she sighted the duo. It made more sense now, the reason why the police had stopped chasing her, it is because they had done their jobs.
'You lured me here on purpose," Heather said.
'I see that you have figured it out," Zayn said, nodding his head. 'Smart. I would have to give you that, both that stunt you pulled with Miranda and the one with Andrew."
'I know that the kid isn't here. Where is he?" Luci asked.
'What on earth makes you think that I would tell you that?" Heather spat back.
'Unfortunately, you have got no choice," Luci replied. 'What do you want, girl? Tell me, maybe I would have some mercy on you."
'This is not supposed to be like this. Alexander was the one that was supposed to show up and we would negotiate. All I want is some good old billions of dollars," Heather said, she had managed to stand up and was staring at all of them.
'Don't think about any escape, Heather. You have got none." Zayn said.
'How much are we talking about right here?"
'Thought of it but I changed my mind. How about a hundred trillion dollars? The negotiation starts right there. If you want the kid, provide that."
'You are delusional,"
'It is not our fault that we need some urgent dollars for some reorganization," Heather answered with a shrug.
'We are dropping a dime to you."
'And we are not dropping the kid to you too. It goes both ways." Heather said in a mocking tone. 'I really want to see Sapphire though, good old buddy, we need to have a discussion, I see that she matured. Snagged a real man and inherited a fortune. It would be nice if we became real best friends now. She had turned to the kind of ones in my league."
'League of bitches right?"
'Damn straight, darling. I see that you are one of us. Welcome to the circle." Heather said and chuckled, she was moving backwards inches by inches.
Luci's phone rang and she went away to pick the call, she came back some minutes later with a smile on her face.
'Now let the bitches talk." Luci said with a small smirk while Zayn just continued to watch them, there is no escape for Heather, and so they might as well talk. Luci has a grudge on her for deceiving her. 'The kids are with Tiara. Turns out my bitches are smarter than yours, they won the fight."
Heather's face turned red and pale and she tried to hide her fears but her anxiety was obvious through the way she kept swallowing nothing, she is just acknowledging that she is at a dead end.
'Let us settle some scores. Why don't we?"
'Settle some scores your ass, we can do that another day, but for now, fuck off!" Heather said and lookedf behind her, she was at the top of a cliff and there was water underneath, she pursed her lips and smirked at them before she jumped.
