Chapter 11 - Heartache

When they got home from the hospital no one was home. So she said to Oliver to sit down in his bed and rest a little bit. She go into his bathroom to prepare his bath. He only washed his face and brushed his teeth this morning before they left the hospital. She like Oliver to feel fresh and clean. She mentally take note as well that she need to call the school to let them know the reason of his absence today.

"Darling bath is ready."

"Okay mama, I'm coming!"

"I will prepare your clothes and put it on top of the bed. If you need me I will be in the kitchen. I will cook your favourite for lunch."

" Yay! Thank you mama!"

I give him a pat on his head and smile. I went to the kitchen and start preparing the ingredients. When I am done cooking I called Oliver so we eat our lunch. When we were done he said he wants to sleep, he said his tired so I let him. I just done cleaning the kitchen and finished washing the dishes when I heard the door open so I stopped what I was doing and I walk towards the door.

"Hi hubby! Did you forget something?" I asked but he ignored me. He walked past me and went to our bedroom.

"John are you alright? Do you have a problem? Do we have a problem?"

"Nothing is the matter. So stop asking question woman." He said.

"I am going to a business trip for a week " He added.

"I will pack your clothes." She said but she has this feeling that there is a hidden problem that she doesn't know about.

She went out from their room and go to Oliver's room. She said to her son that his papa is home so if he wants to say hello he can if his not yet sleepy.

After she packed his clothes and he was done with his shower he just left without saying goodbye or to where he is going for his business trip. She was so shocked again with his actions and he didn't even say hello to his son.

"Mama where is papa?" Oliver came to see his father.

"He just left darling." She said and she was about to bring Oliver back to his room to continue his rest but then she noticed a file on top of the bed. She pick it up and tell Oliver that they will have to make a trip to his father's office to bring the file he forgot.

They arrive at his company. She greet the receptionist and said that they will go up to her husband's office. The receptionist known her for a long time now so she know she will not going to stop her. But Oliver has his own idea. He wants to stay in the waiting area. There is a little corner with full of children books and he said he wants to read books. So she asked the receptionist to keep an eye of him.

She arrived at the floor where her husband's office and when she's about to knock she noticed the door is a little bit ajar. She heard slapping noises and when she peep she saw her husband banging his secretary. She covered her mouth to not make a noise. Her tears just keeps falling and she can't even run away. She can't move, her body refused to move. She didn't even know when they stopped doing it.

" Honey when are we going to get the death insurance payment of your wife and son?" She heard his secretary asked John.

"Soon honey, our contacts will make a move as soon as we leave for our holiday" she can't believe what she heard. John is planning to kill her and Oliver.

"I love you honey!" Then she can hear kissing noises again. She can't take it anymore so she forced herself to move and she run away back to the ground floor.

She grab Oliver and hurriedly run to the parking area. She can't believe it that John will do this to her and to his own son. Her and Oliver needs to pack their clothes but where they can go?

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

***The couple went downstairs after their kissing session.***

"Excuse me Mr. Johnson but Mrs Johnson was here she dropped this folder after she's been in your office." The receptionist informed John.

"What did you say? My wife was here?"

"Ah yes sir! She was here with your son Oliver. She said she wants to give this file to you that you left behind at home so she went up to your office alone and left your son here with me. But she came down crying and grabbed your son and they left. She didn't even noticed she dropped this file on the floor." The receptionist explained.

"Thank you!" He said, not waiting for the receptionist answer then they walk away towards the car waiting outside the building to take them to the airport.

"What are we going to do now? Do you think she heard what we said and seen what we done? Tracey said.

"I will move forward our plan. I will call our contacts to go in our house right now to kill them and make it out that the reason is burglary." John replied and then he call his contacts to execute their plan at this very instant.

"Are you sure this is what you want? The contacts asked and "we want payment right away."

"No problem! I will wire half of the amount we agreed and the rest when you finish the job." John said.

"You are a heartless man, even you want to kill your own blood but if this is what you want then consider it done." The contact said.

"Yes! I am very sure." John answered and he didn't bat an eyelid.

"Alright" then the phone call ended.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

When they arrived she parked the car two streets away. Then when they go in she asked Oliver to pack some clothes about 5 pairs of everything. She give him a backpack. She pack herself some clothes too. She go out at the back garden and dig the flower bed on her garden, she buried a container with some cash in their about two thousand and five hundred dollars. She knew this will come in handy someday but she never thought it will come true sooner.

When she's done with the preparation she give Oliver instructions that if they will get separated she needs Oliver to go to the address in the calling card. She give Oliver 1 thousand and five hundred dollars. She can only think of the address that given to her by their saviour.

"Darling whatever's happened if mama said run, you need to run faster and don't look back. Take a taxi and go to the address on the calling card. Pay the taxi of the amount you see on the taxi meter. I put money on your backpack."

"Yes mama" he replied.

When they are about to go out at the back door, the door suddenly open and unknown person came inside. He locked the door.

"Where do you think the two of you are going?" The stranger asked.

"Who are you? What do you want?" Amelia asked and pull Oliver at the same time behind her back so she can shield him.

"Who am I? He he he..I am your nightmare!"

"We don't know you and I haven't done anything to you." She keep talking and trying to find opening so they can escape.

"Well you don't know me but your husband contacted me to kill both of you. Ha ha ha..actually you don't need to know this but since you're going to die here then telling you the truth doesn't matter." He laugh evilly again.

" Please let us go."

"Ha ha ha..let you go? No way! Big money that at stake here." The stranger said again. Then he launch towards Amelia.

He grab Amelia's arm and punch her abdomen. Amelia almost lost consciousness but she needs to be awake for Oliver. She fight back, kick and scratch the man. She struggled to get away from his tight hold. He drag Amelia by hair and punch her face so hard. Blood oozing from Amelia's face and afterwards kick her rib cage. Oliver is crying so hard and tried to help Amelia but the guy shove him in the corner. Amelia's anger rose up when she saw her son shoved in the corner. She kick again and bite. She bite the arm of the stranger so hard that the flesh almost come off. The guy was in pain so he was a little bit distracted and she reach for the flower vase and hit the stranger's head with all her might. She is in so much pain but she needs to move for her son's sake. She saw that the guy lose consciousness so she grab her son's hand and they flee at the back door.

It's because of adrenaline pumping into her body she still manage to drive her car towards the address on the calling card. She see that the electric gate is opening she speedily drive the car inside. There was only enough space for her car to get through as it wasn't completely open yet.The guards was surprised and reacted right away to chase the car towards the main entrance of the mansion.

When she reached the entrance of the mansion there was a screech of her tires before she manage to stop the car. She step down from the car.

"Please help us" then she fainted. That was all she managed to say.
