Chapter 16 - Chester

Clara was given some gloves and a plastic boot and allowed across the tape. Two more officers wearing same followed as they reviewed the scene, picking up tiny details that might suggest anything other than an accident.

With the help of Ignas, Clara placed the victim on her back, and secured her airway. Establishing a pulse, she laced her hands together and started the chest compressions.

"26, 27, 28, 29, 30." She bent over and pushed in two breaths using the mouth to mouth method and resumed the chest compressions again. She worked her hands tirelessly, as slow drops of sweat started dripping down her face.

The faint sound of the ambulance brought complete joy to almost everybody. Less than two minutes later, the ambulance pulled up and the victim was immediately placed on oxygen and wheeled into the ambulance. Detective George followed the ambulance to the capital.

"Who is she?" Clara asked Ignas as they stepped outside the tape.

"Her ID read Felicia Lowen. The only Lowen I know stays at the capital and the man is a billionaire." She replied, moving over to Nima."

"Bolton, take a lead on this one and wrap it up once you're done, I'm headed to the hospital. Meet me up at the coroner's office with your report." She said, as she turned to leave.

"I'll love to come too." Clara said, running after her.

"Hell no, go home child. You've got your nasty friend to care for."

"But I want to come." Clara insisted.

"Please, go home Clara."

"Please..... Please Ignas, I promise to be of my best behavior, and Janet, she will stay in the car. They might have some questions that I can offer an answer to. Medical related questions.." Clara tried again.

"Of course Ignas knew there was no such thing. But she couldn't say no to Clara."

"Fine. Make sure you stay out of my way and get your friend to stay in the car or at the reception. Okay?"

"Yes ma'am." Clara replied and rushed back to her car.

Jane who came out from the car again when the crowd started building up was seen chatting with someone in the crowd. "Janey, we gotta go." She called.

Janet bid her goodbyes and entered the car. "You were a superhero girl, I'm so fucking proud of you!" Jane exclaimed excitedly. "The lady out there said I was lucky to have such an amazing friend like you. She seem to know you though. I guess you're popular in Bramhills."

"What, Who?" Clara asked starting the car, just as Ignas started her own car and steadily she drove behind Ignas, letting her lead the way.

"The lady I was talking with, Elena, she called you by your name and said I was lucky to have you as a friend." Jane said again.

"I think she's mistaken, very few people know me in Bramhills. And I don't even know the lady in question."
