My Life with the CEO

Knives and Blood

"Sir, we beg your cooperation. Don't worry, our team will definitely protect you." The police chief specifically came to see Andrew at the mansion.

"If I refuse?"

"Then the boy's life is under threat."

"He's not my son." Hiss Andrew growled.

"True sir, he is not a child and has nothing to do with us as law enforcement. But there is not a little mercy. This case concerns you too. Good name for you and your company. Today, many residents surround the house of mistress Bertha and the woman continues to shout your name. He has something to tell you directly."

The Chief of Police at length explained, making Andrew speechless. He had no intention of seeing Bertha. Moreover, Leonel, isn't that child also the one who has hurt his son, Aaron? Let them, mother and child hurt each other.

"We ask for your help, sir, pity the poor boy, he's a victim here." Again, the police chief pleaded.

"What is this Andrew?"

Diana, who had been outside the room, caught a glimpse of their conversation. He felt strange with Andrew's hard and tense attitude. The police chief repeatedly pleaded.

"Bertha took her foster son hostage." Andrew's words are short.

"Yes God. What's the fate of the boy?" Diana closed her mouth in surprise.

"The boy was battered madam, it seems that he did not get any serious treatment."

The police chief showed a photo sent by another member of the police who was at Bertha's house. Looks how Leonel with the injured body was forced to stand by Bertha. The knife was attached to Leonel's neck which began to scratch. Bertha's face was even like a lost man. Her eyes glared hatefully, though still with a neat make-up.

People with personality problems who can still dress up neatly as normal, seem more scary than people who are completely insane, with messy makeup. Bertha looked scary.

In another corner they also sent a photo of a young man sitting in a wheelchair. Disabled youth with appalling conditions. Looks skinny, fleshy-free. His tired body and hard-to-understand eyes.

"It... They're..." Diana's choked.

"Yes lady. The hostage Leonel is an adopted son, while the disabled young man we assume the first child of Ms. Bertha." The police chief explained.

"Andrews. Leonel is a classmate who quarrels with Aaron. I've already sent some money for the treatment fee. But, it turns out that this child is not undergoing treatment." Diana let out a pity at the situation of Leonel.

"Then, what happens next?"

"Look, ma'am, we came here because of the demands of Ms. Bertha who wanted to meet and talk to Mr. Andrew in person. He threatened that if in an hour, Mr. Andrew didn't come, he would hurt Leonell" the police officer said slowly, stressing his every sentence.

Diana massaged his forehead.

"Can't you from the police do something without my husband coming?"

diana said with a trembling voice.

Andrew walked over to Diana and grabbed his wife from behind. The man understood the delicate feeling Diana had. One side she was so worried about Leonel and one side she did not willing her husband as barter material.

"We could have shot him, madam. But the risk is too great. Two lives at once that's a bet. And many people around the house are swarming. Too risky." said the Chief of Police.

"Let Aaron go there. Besides, Leonel was like that because of Aaron." Aaron, who had been eavesdropping, appeared in their midst.

"Can't!!!" Diana's screams were spontaneous.

"But mom, it's my fault for being emotionally hooked as well."

"No!! It's none of your business anymore!" Andrew's snappy is no less fierce.

"But, Leonel's life will be at stake, dad!" Aaron's compassionate young soul was appearing on the surface.

"And you will be the bet if you are there." said Diana unwillingly.

"Not many cops there, what to fear. I brought the bodyguards as well." said Aaron calmly.

"Sorry young master. You can't come because what Ms. Bertha asked for is Mr. Andrew" the Chief said, repeatedly looking at the clock in her hand. As time moved on, Bertha's requested time requirements began rolling in.

"Aaron! Comehere!" Andrew dragged Aaron from the living room into the living room. There they gathered to their five other children.

"Daddy. Is Aaron's brother going there?" archie asked worriedly.

Andrew forced Aaron into the seat right next to Anna. The little girl immediately clasped Aaron's hand. He held firmly, as if afraid that his beloved brother would run away. Anna is like a little cop guarding her captive.

Andrew looked at his children's beads one by one. He sighed at the look in Aaron's riled eyes and ended up in Diana's worried eyes. As a father and as a good citizen, he was in a difficult choice.

"Daddy will come to meet the police chief's request. Daddy's gonna see how to save your friend." Andrew said with a load.

"No! Nah! I won't let you." Diana said in a panic.

She will not let her husband enter again in the chain of death snares of the cursed family. Quite an experience that made her almost lose her life and Diana did not want Andrew to be her target this time.

"Calm Diana. I wouldn't foolishly risk my safety just like that. Like Aaron said, there's a lot of cops and I'm gonna go with the bodyguards. If something happens to that kid, how can we look into Aaron's regret-filled eyes?" Andrew said slowly, resting on his wife's lap.

"But the family..." Diana's body trembled in fear. The trauma from Rachel's family is still strong.

"I'll be fine. If you all gather and pray for me, will God not hear your requests more?"

Andrew's words provided a bit of calm for Diana. Humanly she will not let her husband mauk into the nest of wild crocodiles. But if faith can conquer all, perhaps it is worth fighting for.

"Back safely! Send that woman to the asylum forever!"

Andrew nodded at Diana's stern words.

"I love you. You are the most beautiful gift of my life." Andrew kissed Diana's forehead deeply.

"Conrad! As long as daddy's not here, you take care of your sisters. Stop playing cat-kick with women."

"Aaron, stay home! Remember daddy company is your responsibility. You have to practice a lot with Uncle Briant!"

"Frances, Archie, Adel and Anna. Watch Mommy. You guys should get along well and support each other."

Andrew's message to his family.

"Daddy! You must return safely. Remember, I won't want to learn from Uncle Briant. I just want to go with daddy!" said Aaron is no less firm.

Andrew smiled and rubbed Aaron's head with pride.

"Let's go." Andrew told the police chief.

Accompanied by the sad look of his family, Andrew departed accompanied by the sad look of his family and servants. Time ticking. Thirty minutes left. While the trip also spent three minutes if not jammed.

Unasked, Greg the head of the bodyguard assigns eight of his men to accompany Andrew. They were assigned to guard the safety of their master. And if it fails, then the punishment they get is certainly not just dismissal.

Thirty minutes later.

"Finally you come Andrew" Bertha said calmly.

"Take the kid off. We can negotiate well." Andrew Pinta.

"You cowardly man! Facing only a weak woman should bring along Wal and ask for police protection. Daddyyyy looktt he's a coward. Hahhahahhas. " Bertha spoke by staring at Bill Willingthon's photo on the wall.

In one move, Bertha pushed Leonel hard at the police in front of Andrew. The police force was open, they were trying to arrest Leonel. And Bertha swiftly ran, pointing her knife at Andrew.

The knife struck, asking for the victim. Blood gushed violently against Bertha's body and face. The woman glared wide until those eyes seemed to be about to spill. He laughed happily. Victory he has won. And his eyes stared pushyly at the surprised Andrew.
