SWNOVELS Chapter Investigating.....
Investigating "Ma, this is the file sent by the man."A maid walked into the Redford's luxurious sitting room, handing it to Mia.
Mia raised an eyebrow and stretched her hands to get the file from the maid, who appears to be in a very unique uniform.
"Jason, right? Where is he, and why didn't he come in?" Mia asked as she tried to open the file given to her.
"I have no idea, ma." The maid said and bowed in every reply she gave. Mia was very strict with the staff, and they did everything not to fall victim. Jason, on the other hand, was Redford's private investigator and was also close to him.
He did all investigations for him, and it will shock you to know who Jason really is.
"Always dumb! Leave already!" Mia barked at the maid, who hurried left. Name: Amber Cartel Current name: Amy Cartel... The file has every piece of information about Amy, and it was indeed complex, but something caught Mia's eye. Name: Amber Cartel Current name: Amy Cartel...
All the information in the documents made her realize that Amy Cartel was her childhood friend, and they have been best friends since they were five years old, but unfortunately things happened and they separated. "Amber? Amber Carter?" Mia screamed out, covering her mouth, to stop herself from escalating so much noise. Cartel was what really made her know it was really the Amber she knew years ago. Since she had heard about Amy, she had been planning on sending Jason to investigate, but then she was not really serious. She didn't even know Amy really well or the name she bears. This was the shock of her life. "Well, it is nice seeing her again after a long time now." Mia said with a devilish smile, just like her heart. But seriously, she was bewildered; she took in air, exhaled fiercely, and shook her head vigorously, not really sure it was her. "You don't mean this! This can't be true! My childhood best friend! This was exactly why she looked so familiar. Gosh!" Mia gasped, surprised by the evidence in her tone and eyes. She quickly picked up her phone and dialed Jason's number. *Ring *Ring* After the call went through twice, Jason picked up. "Hi.. Are you sure this information on this file is correct? Because it seems complicated." She said it nervously, trying not to sound as such. "Of course it is. Everything in there was investigated and gathered by me." Jason said from the other line, sounding so sure. "Okay, that's alright." Mia said and was about to end the call when Jason chipped in. "Is everything okay? You sound a little bit worried." Jason observed. But before he could know it, the call went dead. Mia threw her phone on the table and had obviously lost appetite in the chin chin and juice she was taking before the file was brought to her. "I have to act fast! Why didn't I recognize her? If the truth comes out, I am going to be helpless and hopeless! What the fuck!" Mia said and slapped her head in frustration as her breath raced as though a big secret was about to be exposed. "I have to do something very quickly!" She said in her head as she snapped her hands in frustration, pacing around the sitting room. Mia and Amy are childhood best friends and have been till they were eight years old, and we're in the same school. They came back from school together and the rest. One of the days, Amy stopped seeing Mia in school. After the incident of them helping a young boy who was with his grandma. Amy was very little then, and her parents were not so rich then, just middle class as Mia parents. *Flashback* "Are you okay? Let's keep moving and stop looking at the boy as though you knew him from somewhere." Amy said to her friend Mia and dragged her with her. She was looking at a young boy, who was dressed in a very well-ironed and expensive uniform. It was obvious he was from a wealthy family. "Can't you see the big toy and ice cream on his hands, and I am sure his parents own the car he is leaning on?" Mia said as though but was really her concern. "How does that concern you? We should just hurry up and go home." Amy said, giving no damn concern in what Mia was saying. The boy who had seen the two girls gazing at him and saying something he couldn't comprehend turned to the supermarket his grandma entered. When he was sure she wasn't paying attention to him, he walked up to the girls. "I am Redford, and you?" He said, looking at Amy, and ignored Mia. Just then a frown creased on her eyebrow. Redford was a young, growing boy, without any siblings or friends. He was always indoors. When he saw the opportunity of talking to this girl looking at him, he was happy. He only played and talked to kids when he was in school, and as a boy who had lost his parents at a very tender age, his grandma did everything to protect him. "I am Amb...." Just as Amy wanted to share her name with the unknown boy. A car drove in speedily, and the three kids squirreled away. But just then the car door flung open and a man was trying to drag the young boy into the car, but Amy was quick enough to start screaming and was dragging the boy with the masked man. People hurried out, same as the young boy's grandma, and just then the car moved speedily, but before then they didn't succeed in taking him with them. The young boy kept breathing hard as he landed on the floor with his butt. That was near. After this incident, due to fear, Amy dragged Mia. She was panting and was sweating profusely; she couldn't understand how she got the courage to do what she did. "Let's go home now; it is no longer safe here." Immediately she said this, and she ran as fast as she could. And just when Grandma Agnes came out of the supermarket and saw what had happened, she was quick to start thanking Mia for saving her son. "She is not the one." Redford protested as his grandma kept praising her. "I did save you," Mia said firmly. Redford wasn't really sure of who did save him; since Mia had firmly said it was her, he believed, and that was how his grandma took her in after discussing with her parents. Her intentions were for Redford to get married to Mia to save his life. But a few weeks after taking her in, Mia lost her parents, and this was why she lived with Redford and grandma Agnes till date. *End of flashback "What will happen now if Redford finds out she was the one that saved him and not me?" Mia thought the past was now haunting her. "I can't lose all this wealth and just be a common person again. I lied, and this will cause me to lose everything and all the fame." Mia cried out; she was really enjoying the luxurious life. But Grandma Agnes had come to love her, so she might still have the chance to marry Redford. But no, Amy is the mother of his kids, and she was sure one day the truth will be known and Redford will take advantage of it because he had never loved her. What is she going to do now? Read and find out what happens next...
