After the kidnapping incident, the man Michael Blaine who my aunt said was her link to the outside world was arrested. Turns out he was the lover Duke told me she had so he already had a case against him for managing her illegal funds and plus being an accomplice in a kidnapping case, he's going to spend a long time behind bars.
A week after Alicia's sentence, the judge presiding over aunt Evelyn's case sentences her to twenty years in prison. For a moment in that court, my heart ached for her. She's already fifty, so twenty years means she'll be in there till she's seventy. Of course she can be lucky and be let out earlier, but that will still be like in ten years time.
If only she hadn't been so wicked to me. If only she hadn't added to her problems by kidnapping my son.
I refuse to let myself be ridden with guilt. She's just paying for her sins.
