Chapter 7 - Suspect

Next morning Helena, Aaren and their parents were eating breakfast when Bentley came down stairs to kitchen 

"Good morning" he greeted them with smile on his face

"Good morning" they greeted back expect Aaren

"Aaren why don't you greet your brother"

Aaren glared at Bentley

"He's not my brother" he said bitterly

"Aaren!" Miranda was about to scold him when Bentley cut her off

"It's alright mother, I don't care if he greets me or not"

He sat down and rest of breakfast was done in silence

At afternoon Miranda got call from orphanage

"Mrs. Chand?" Voice asked

"Yes?" She answered

"Good afternoon, here's Jane Malone. I'm calling to ask if you heard anything about our sister who visited you yesterday?"

Miranda was confused

"No I didn't heard anything from her"

Jane took deep breath trying to remain calm

"Okey, I understand. Thank you"

With that Jane hung up leaving very confused Miranda still thinking what did she meant.

That day they got another call. This time from police.

It turned out the nun was killed and her body was buried next to brige

But they didn't know who did it

The police called the whole family to police station for questioning. 

That evening as Michael drive his family to police station Bentley send Helena message on Instagram

(I - Bentley)

(I - Helena)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you tell, I'll kill Aaren

I won't

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bentley smiled and continued to look through the widow.

-At police station-

"The last time we saw her was when she left our house" Miranda said answering the last question 

"Aha and where were your kids that time" police officer asked still not believing the story

"Aaren was studying in his room while Helena and Bentley were out" Michael answered this time

Police officer looked at their daughter with suspicious look

"And where were you and your brother?"

Helena gulped "we were playing on the playground, then we went on walk and finally went to our tree house to paint something" Helena lied, she wanted to tell the true so bad but she wasn't going to risk losing her brother

She already saw what Bentley is capable of

"Hm..alright" police officer said seeing there isn't anything suspicious

He looked at the parents

"You and your kids are free to go"

They nodded and said their good bye.

That night while Miranda and Michael were watching TV, Aaren came in living room with sendjd look on his face

"Mom, dad"

Their attention quickly turned on thier older son

"Yes?"

Aaren sat down in front of them

"We have to talk"

"About?" Michael questioned

"About Bentley."

Both parents groned in boredom

"Aaren we get it you don't like Bentley, but this is utterly ridiculous!"

"You don't get it! I think he's behind that nun's murder! And I know Helena knows something but she won't tell us!!"

He tried to reason with his parents, he was so furious that they didn't believe him

"Go to your room now! I don't want to hear about this stupid conversation ever again!!"

Miranda said angrily.

Aaren clenched his fist "fine!" He yelled and left the room

'I'll prove them wrong!' he thought.
