My Life with the CEO

Knife and blood 2

Andrew left with the police chief and was followed by his bodyguards accompanied by tears and the look of anxiety Diana and her children. Diana was not willing if Andrew had to go there, anything could have happened beyond expectations. For the boys, Conrad and Aaron they smile proudly at Andrew, while for the girls and Archie, they only understand that daddy Andrew has to save someone.

"Just calm mommy, Daddy must have returned safely" Aaron said.

Diana scolded. He is eager to grab Aaron's ear, yells furiously and vents his emotions at the boy, but... Aaron was also formed from the great soul teachings that he always applied. Aaron doesn't know, no! To be exact, no one knows, the horrific past Andrew and Diana had experienced when dealing with the family.

"Why mommy should be so panicked and not as rigid as usual. Who exactly is Leonel's family, who's his wicked mother why is she bothering daddy?" conrad asked with incomprehensible eyes from Aaron as well.

"If daddy returns safely, mommy will tell you about the family" Diana said weakly. If Andrew comes back then, Aaron and Conrad can find out what happened. But if something bad happens, then all of her will be Diana's grave deeply. Because he didn't want to, they got hurt even more.

"Mommy..." Anna held her mother's hand.

The touch of Anna's hand made Diana feel a stream of warmth, which resuscitated her from daydreams and fear. He looked at the beautiful innocent face of his son. Those beads of eyes radiate compassion and shade.

"Come, we all pray together."

Diana headed for the middle room. There he and his children knelt. They pray together. Butler Jhon and all the servants who were there also knelt down and prayed. Their thanksgiving and supplications are offered to the Creator.

"O Lord my God, thank you for all your blessings and graces in the life of our family. Forgive our sins. Right now, please listen to these prayers and requests. Save the husband, daddy and head of this household. Save Andrew, Lord my God. Keep him out of all danger. May you send your army of Angels to guard Andrew from danger. Man can only try but You are the One who saves. Please listen to my prayer."

Diana repeatedly called out the prayer while shedding tears. He wholeheartedly pleaded with the Creator for Andrew's safety.

Meanwhile, it was Andrew who arrived on time at Bertha's residence. He could see police lines bordering the house. All the reporters and the surrounding neighbors, were just watching and gossiping from a distance. When they saw Andrew's arrival, the rumor got even more stirred. Dozens of mobile cameras and professional cameras captured the rare moment.

The police officer who was waiting for Andrew immediately brought the man into the house. He was very concerned about the situation of Leonel and the child in the wheelchair. The two children were very helpless. Moreover, the blood that seeped out of Leonel's neck more and more due to the thin scratches of the pressing knife.

Andrew stood behind two policemen standing in front of Bertha, holding guns. He saw clearly the state of the helpless-looking Leonel. The child's body was clearly infected, due to an untreated wound. While the young man sitting on a wheelchair, the same age as Conrad, seemed to repeatedly mutter something unclear. His physical condition made the young man appear much older than Conrad.

"Bertha's." Call Andrew, awaken the woman from the direction of his gaze upon the disabled child.

"Andrews. You're finally here."

"What are you doing, let go of the boy, we can talk good." Andrew said with great emphasis.

"God! Talk okay? Look at you, you came with bodyguards and police, just to confront a woman. Hmh! A coward!" Bertha spit rough.

"You're the one who lured the police into action so far. Why else would you use a poor boy as a hostage to see me." Andrew said.

"Are you going to see me, if I don't threaten to kill this kid?! Tell them to back off Andrew, don't tell me you're afraid to face me." Bertha's eyes glared as she shifted the knife around Leonel's neck.

Bertha's movement stopped. He laughed loudly at Andrew's reaction. His laughter made everyone there frown at once more alert.

"You're getting softer as it turns out. The cold man my stupid sister married, turned out to be this gentleman." Bertha grinned widely as she played the knife in her hand.

"Stop doing. There's no point in you doing this. Better let go of that helpless kid. And also he, if he's your son, let the police take them to the hospital and get treatment. Then we can talk more calmly." Andrew tries to get Bertha to release the Leonel who can't even stand up anymore.

"You forgot my son Andrew? Bill..greet him, your uncle, Andrew."

Bertha spoke softly to the young man in the wheelchair. The young man with great difficulty, turned his head towards Andrew. His hands are on the wheel chair. Once you move on that lever, the wheelchair will automatically slide.

"Bertha, let your son get treatment."

"What do you care, Andrew! Decades, you never cared about him! You ruined the company that daddy built. You repay daddy's kindness with treason. You really don't know return!" Bertha's face was red with emotion.

Andrew gave up his heart's desire to answer Bertha's accusations. Because the more angry the woman is, the more dangerous it will be. Andrew was silent while looking at the situation. He saw his bodyguards trying to find a gap to be able to conquer the woman. But alas, Bertha is in a safe position. Behind Bertha was the wall, as were her right and left. It's very difficult to get a gap to injure the woman.

The police chief saw that Leonel was no longer on file. He approached Andrew.

"If in a minute, he doesn't release his hostages, then we'll cripple him."

"Cripple?"

"The only way is to shoot dead."

"In front of those two kids?"

"There's no other way. We have to do it." The police chief has made his decision

Andrew looked at Bertha who seemed to be paying attention to their conversation. Although the police chief was only whispering, Bertha could clearly see if they were planning something. And he knew, if he wanted to avenge her, then Bertha had to act first.

"Andrewwwww!!!!" Bertha shouted Andrew's name out loud and hatefully.

"You traitor! You wasted my sister Rachel's love, you betrayed the good of daddy Bill. You have to take responsibility. I will send you to beg them for mercy!!!"

Bertha pushed Leonel to the police in front of Andrew.

The police formation was open, they were trying to catch 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.
