CHAPTER 15

Shalimar hid in a corner. The gun shots continued. After some minutes, it stopped and there was silence. She heard some people moving about. She hoped it was the police and not the thugs.

She got up from her hiding spot and quietly moved towards the people. She was relieved when she saw that it was the police rounding up and hand cuffing the thugs. One of the officers saw her and came towards her.

"Mrs Bolt, are you alright?"

The officer asked when he reached her.

"Yes, I am."

"Good follow me, I will escort you to your husband "

She lit up when she heard this.

"He is here? "

"Yes, he is waiting outside."

Shal followed the officer.

They were almost to the door when she remembered Caroline.

She told the officer Caroline's whereabouts. He passed the information to another officer who then went to get her out.

Shalimar let the officer lead her outside. She couldn't wait to see Damon.

Damon was tired of waiting.
