What was Tasha even saying…her head felt like it was dipped in cold water when she heard those words. The suddenly she is out of the cold water than thrown to the flames, burning inside her, charring every particle in her body.
James Hermann was murdered.
Her dad was murdered.
He never died of cardiac arrest like she believed. Betrayal flashed in the irises of her eyes as she looked up at the former secretary. She had kept this from her for two years. And for what?
Chief Carlton got up, his chair scraping against the floor as his face went red, "Don't say useless things inside a police station!"
"Maybe they shouldn't keep useless police here too!" Tasha thundered back. The rest of the police men were waiting for Tasha to do something, a grab at the collar, a punch. Anything. One touch on a police officer and it's an offense. Direct arrest.
