Chereads / The Journey Of Crazy Love Mr. Ceo / Chapter 21 - A Promise

Chapter 21 - A Promise

That morning, around 10 o'clock, a man in a gray coat entered the police station. His clothes looked neat with a black metallic suit and in his hand was a bag.

"Good morning, Sir!" who is that man? He pulled his hair back with his hands. Perfect.

"Yes... good morning, sir! How can I help you?" the policeman on duty at the front returned the greeting.

"I am the attorney Mr. Jack sent for Miss Katty, may I see him, sir?"

"Ooh...Katty! Please follow me." The policeman pointed the way to the meeting place between the visitors and the inmates. The two of them passed through a long corridor. And then turn left, "Please wait here. I will confirm with the prison officials first," said the policeman after arriving.

The man who is a lawyer is waiting in one of the empty chairs. He put down his bag, then the files that Jack had given him were taken out. Then he read a bit about Katty's case which he had to defend in court later, even though Jack had already given her a ransom to free Katty.

While the lawyer was waiting for Katty to come out, the policeman was seen seriously talking to the prison officials. His eyes occasionally glanced at the lawyer. Then the prison officials went inside, to where Katty was languishing.

Inside the prison, a calm atmosphere can be seen. The inmates no longer dared to disturb Katty who was seriously looking at Jack's business card. "Is this person going to help me?" thought Katty. She saw Jack's name written on it and its important position on the card.

"Miss Katty!" The prison guard opened the prison door.

The girl turned around, then woke up. "Yes, I am! What happened, sir?"

"There's your lawyer outside!"

"Lawyer?" said Katty repeating the prison officer's words.

"Yes, please come out and follow me!"

Katty didn't say much, she then followed what the prison officials told her to do.

Her eyes were fixed on the man in a gray coat, with a parent's appearance and very sleek, neatly styled hair. The man was very serious reading the file in his hand.

Katty approached uncertainly. But she had not forgotten what Jack had said an hour ago. Katty sat with her eyes fixed on the man whose name she didn't know yet.

Knock.

Knock.

Knock.

Katty knocked on the glass that separated her and the lawyer. The man gasped, shocked and the sound broke his seriousness in reading the file.

"Oh, sorry!" The man rushed to grab the phone that was beside him. Katty too.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Brandy. The lawyer Mr. Jack hired for you!" replied Brandy, the man in front of him.

Katty's expression was normal, she could already guess the man in front of her was the lawyer that Jack had promised her. "And then, when will you release me?"

"Today. I have read and studied your case from Mr. Jack. Don't worry, Mr. Jack has also given me a ransom to release you if the judge is stubborn to imprison you!" Brandy exclaimed at length. "And now, may I know, what kept you in prison?"

"Kidnapping and torturing a rich man's child!"

Brandy's forehead frowned slightly. "What's your motivation for doing that?"

"Revenge!" answered Katty briefly.

Brandy cleared her throat slightly. "You're a little wild too!"

"Why? Am I not allowed to take revenge on the person who killed my brother?"

"There's nothing wrong! However, you can't answer like that? Your answer might make you languish longer in this prison," said Brandy. "And I ask you to relax and not get carried away with your emotions at the trial this afternoon!"

"Later?"

"Yes! Do you want to stay in jail a little longer?" Brandy asked narrowing her eyes.

"Ah...no, instead I was looking forward to this trial!" said Katy a little excited. As it turned out, Jack did not break his promise or was just playing with himself.

"Okay, I already know the motivation and cause of this case. Now I ask you, don't make mistakes or make a scene in the prison while your trial hasn't started yet!"

"Fine, I'll do anything as long as I can get out of this godforsaken place!"

"Good! Now I'm leaving. And we will meet again this afternoon at 3 o'clock. Prepare yourself and remember the message I gave you earlier!" Brandy advised. Katty nodded in understanding. Then the man who works as a lawyer put down his phone. Likewise with Katty. The girl stared at the lawyer outside until the prison officials startled her.

"Time is off. Hurry back inside!" said the officer. Katy nodded and got up. His face looks very happy.

"Finally, I'll be free soon. And I'll get my revenge on that bastard boy!" he whispered inside, he was happy to be able to do what he had promised his brother before death came to pick up the only family in his life. "Edward, I will make you suffer like you did my brother. Die slow and tormented!" he continued, holding her hand. And his mind remembers how his brother asked him for a request before his death.

"Katty ... you must get my revenge on this son of a bitch!" His hand gave a sheet photo of Edward who was laughing on top of his luxury car.

"Who is he, my brother?"

"This man who has wronged me until I like this. And soon, my end will come, Katty! You must avenge me! Kill that man, make him suffer as I feel!" he cried, his eyes holding an unforgivable grudge. "That boy's name is Edward Graham Jr. Son of the heir to the J&D group." Katty's older brother caught his breath.

He couldn't hold back the pain he felt all over his body. According to the doctor, many internal injuries made it difficult for the systems and cells in Katty's brother's body to heal. Torture with hot iron plates and electrocution devices with thousands of volts left his body paralyzed with burned skin.

"B-but, Brother?"

"I-I entrust everything to you, Katty!"

His body suddenly tensed, his eyes bulging and his mouth opened wide. Then, before long, he fell again with his hands off Katty's cheeks, accompanied by a voice,

Tuuut.

From cardiac detection devices, Cardiographic. The graph looks like a straight line only. "Older brother!" Katty's screams echoed in the room. She cried uncontrollably when the doctor gave up on getting the chart moving again. Her brother, the only family she had had to leave her alone.

His eyes bulged, his fingers tightly gripping the photo his brother had given him. "I promise, Bro! I promise I will make that man named Edward feel what you are feeling right now, Bro! I will make him die of suffering," she determined. And she will never forget her promise to her brother.
