Chapter 9

"Lloydette?... Who is she?"

"Gordon's personal stripper"

"He has a personal stripper?"

"yes... She is the bitch that Gordon left me for"

" Why would he kill her? "At this point nothing made sense anymore why would he have a personal stripper? Linda wasn't so bad herself nevermind that I'm slipping away from the real topic at hand.

"Is there something you're not telling me?...Linda you have to tell me everything if you don't how can I help you? "

" Leave me" her sudden change of tone amazed me. How was I supposed to work with a woman who didn't trust me enough to tell me everything.

"The police will be coming to see you tomorrow. Don't tell them anything" was all I said as j slowly walked out of the room the banging of my head was still present on the way back home.

*Anonymous 2 POV*

"Have you gotten news about her whereabouts?" A strange man said from behind my back I was going to make sure that she never gets away with cheating on me

"She hasn't called me up"

"I don't think she'll be doing that anytime soon"

" Why? "

" Gordon had a few words with her"

"Why does that bastard enjoy thwarting with my plans I just hope he didn't make any useless comment that would make Jordan loose trust in me. The only man that she has."

" Gordon can't be that foolish"

" Yes he can he's the reason we are travelling to Mexico for a fight that we didn't even initiate"

*LINDA'S POV*

Why is Gordon playing mind games with me Jordan won't be able to solve this case if I don't leave this place as for the cops coming tomorrow that's the only chance I have at escaping. And I'm willing to shoot at it. I kept on wondering what was going on in Gordon's mind but it only gave me a headache, what made me love that man In the first place? ....oh yes, the smiles and the affection that Jack didn't show but always wanted m to feel. I was young and naive I didn't understand anything about love, and now that I do. Everything seems to be slipping from my hands like quick sand when did it all become like this? What happened to till death do us part? All that bullshit at the altar. I hate my life and it's because of Gordon. My main aim to get revenge for my children, the childhood they lost, the love I lost, the way I was mistreated, my love was insulted and all of it.

My continuous thinking and rewinding of how my life had fallen flat before me, made me drift into slumber. A quiet place in-between life and death.
