Chapter 72 - Sir Newton And Uncle Fidel Is The Same Person

Unable to stay tranquil waiting for news about my mother I decided to look for her myself. Something seems odd and no matter how hard I assure myself, I know for the fact that she wasn't safe. I can only rely on my guts since crying wasn't going to solve anything. 

I can only imagine the worse at this point. I pull myself together and wipe the tears off my face which has become red and blotchy, my eyes bloodshot and eyelids puffy. I twisted moving away from Baby pick my jacket that was laying on the sofa and storm out of the house.

"Where are you going, Nancy?" Baby whispers taking my hand into his. 

"Anywhere but here, I can't stay here doing anything" I mumble taking his hands off.

"And where are you going to look for her?" he pouts. Roland and Betty follow me quietly. I need a friend that will be by my side, support me, and not question me. I need to do something else I will go crazy.

"I don't know anywhere" I shrug. He was starting to get on my nerves. I sat in the car so did Betty and Roland. "We will help you look for her Nancy" Roland whimpers giving me a warm smile. I nod in silence. I started the car.

Leo returns with Justin and Branson and stops us before we left the house. His eyes weren't encouraging. Did he find out any useful information about the whereabouts of my mother?

"What did you find out Leo?" I pout jumping out of the car.

"She was spotted taken by force by someone into a car" he whimpers studying my face. For a moment I was too nervous to breathe, I was standing there like a statue.

"Where? Who? Who took my mother?" I yell. Everyone looks on with anxiousness. None of them have answers to my questions. 

"Take me there, we might find some clue or something, I can't lose my mother too. I just can't" I sob as I run my hands through my hair.  Leo hugs me plastering some kind of hope on his face, the hope that my mother is safe wherever she is.

Baby stares at him with a deadly look, Leo ignores him and hugs me even tighter. 

"That's enough Nancy let's go" Baby comments separating me from Leo. Just then I got a text from an unknown number. I pull back to read it while everyone stares at me to say something.

"IF YOU WANT TO SEE YOUR MOTHER ALIVE COME TO THIS LOCATION" the text reads.

"Fuck" I said lifting my head, I watched everyone stares at me.

"Who was it, Nancy?"

"What does the text say?"

"The bastard that has my mother wants me to meet him at this address," I said showing the address to Roland who was standing next to me.

"Let's go I will drive," Roland said putting the phone away. We all jump into the car driving to the location. there was total silence in the car, Baby holds me in his arms.

I was nervous fidgeting with my hands, Betty places her hand on mine and gives me a warm stare, I gulped the pain and anxiousness that felt like a lump in my throat as hard as I could. 

I stare at her as tears prickle and trickle down my cheeks.

After 30 minutes of driving, we arrived at the location. An abandoned house. 

I walk in first while the rest hide outside watching us, if something was to happen they will come in.

I was greeted by a wired-looking man who didn't border I saw his face. They must not be normal kidnappers, If it's money they want they could have asked and probably be in masks. I tried not to look at his face. 

"You called me here, now I'm here, where is my mother?" my voice was escalating every second.

"You better be calm girl, it's not like your little friends you brought with you can save you" he shouts and my face speeded. I inhale deeply, "What do you want from me and my mother?" I yelled at him once again.

"Not me him, he wants your life" he growls pointing to a huge shadow in the dark. I felt it was a trap. I try running away from there but his strong hand grasps me. 

"Let me go!" I struggled with him, compared to his strength I was just tickling him.

He drags me on the floor holding my hair to another room as I groan in pain. I stumble on a body. It was my mother, she was still unconscious. 

"Mum, Mum, mum please wake up" I cried tapping her face but she won't respond.

"What did you do to my mother?" my voice crack.

The shadow was by the room and I could hear his loud laughter. What does he want and what are they? He walks towards me, once he was close enough he stares at me. I was shocked. I couldn't utter any word I tried to speak but I couldn't find my voice for a moment I felt my tongue being plucked out. I scrub my nose.

The plan was to alert Baby and co once I saw my mother but I guess they are in trouble too considering not hearing from them.

"Y-y-you!" Nothing could explain the sadness I felt at this discovery, I blinked my eye as tears roll down my cheeks.

"You know what? You have no idea how it pains me I didn't succeed in getting rid of you when I had the perfect chance to do so. You are so lucky to live all these years with such a dangerous poison in your body but I'm not going to fail this time around, your father is not here to save you neither can Baby save you" he said, all in one breath.

I fell back, as my eyes widened for a moment my mind numbed on hearing all this. Uncle Fidel, my father's younger brother the same one that poisoned me. Is this ever going to end? It just happened my sexy hot English teacher I was fantasying about is my Uncle. Sir Newton is Uncle Fidel. How stupid of me not to have realized. 

Even though I have never seen any photograph of him in the house before, his dark brown hair, his eyes, and the shape of his nose look exactly like dads. The resemblance was too great for me to have taken it so lightly.

"Uncle Fidel," I said finally finding my voice, a sense of confidence hits me. I folded my fist as I stare at him.

"I see your parent told you about me, so what did they tell you?" he asked.

"You are of no importance to us, to even waste time talking about you," I said, faking confidence.

"Really" he let out a dry chuckle and I gulped.

"I have had it with you brat" he scowled, his loud voice woke my mother up. Finally, she was up. He stopped when my mum gaze at him with a deadly glance. 

He then walks away, before reaching the door, he turns and rumbles "You two can talk alone, think about my offer Cindy I will be back for an answer, think about it carefully.

He said as he walks away locking the door behind him.

I cried as I hug my mum tightly, she hugs me back trying not to cry.

"Are you okay princess?" he didn't hurt you did he?" my mum asked checking to see if I was hurt anywhere.

"No mum, what is his offer" I sob.

"Don't worry about it princess, mummy will never let anything happen to you. Just leave everything for me" she cries as she kisses my forehead and face.

"Have you decided yet Cindy?" Uncle Fidel's hoarse voice could be heard behind the door. Making my mum and I tremble in fear. My mum shoves me behind her back like every mother will do shading her child from harm's way.

Uncle Fidel walks in with two other men beside him.

"Have you decided yet Cindy? what is it going to be, your daughter or me?" He said scoping closer to my mum, I flinch tightly on my mother's hand. Where is Baby I need him right now, uncle Fidel was so sure he won't be able to save me.

He's asking my mum to choose between us.

"Listen, Fidel, you are crazy to think I'll ever choose you and leave my daughter, there's no way that is going to happen. Not when I'm still alive"

"Are you sure about that? you still have another son you know that, who is not fortunate enough to receive his mother's love, would you really want to give up a life with him?" He scowled holding my mum by the arm.

My mum has a son? my mouth dropped wide open as my eyes widened now fixing my gaze on her.

"Mum what is he talking about? what son is he talking about?" I sob hoping she tells me it's a lie.. that my lunatic uncle is just blubbing but I was more shocked by her answer.
