Chapter 27
It's been five hours that she arrived home and her mind was very heavy, her heart continued thumping.
She wants to see her kids to badly. She didn't know what condition they will be now.
She had called the western Ocean City soldiers severally but they kept telling her that no one has
come around the mansion. What if Richard decided to stay away for three days or four days, does that
mean she will not see her children for that period?
Her heart became very sour, pain surging through her heart. Then she picked up her phone and
wanted to call Derick. She was ready to humble herself and let him help her find her children in
whatever way he so pleases.
But everytime he makes an attempt to call his line, she would stop it from dialing. Why was she even
scared of Derick this much? They were couples yet she was so scared of him.
Them she decided to text him since calling him wasn't working. She then sent a message, "I can't find
my children still." She added a sad emoji to the message and dropped her phone beside her.
Would he reply? Or will he not? She waited for so long but his reply never came through. Then her
phone chirped and her heart skipped as she picked up the phone. However, it was a message from the
telecommunication company she's using. She hissed and wanted to drop her phone then realized that
two messages actually came in at the same time.
She was shocked to realize that the second message was from Derrick. Her heart raced and she
quickly opened the message, "I know you are sad. But let's hope the soldiers lurking around will find
them."
She wasn't satisfied with his message. His message was rather sarcastic and she could tell. Then she
texted back, "please help me find them, Marshall."
"I already found them." His response cane through.
She immediately sat upright and called him this time, he picked up and Katherine's urgent voice came
through, "did you say you know where my kids are?"
"Yes. At Torime Hotel. Richard was seeing lodging there with his mother, his sick father and three
children. Obviously, those three children are yours."
"Have you got them for me?" She asked quickly.
"You didn't give me the permission to help you, I don't want to be too forward," he said.
"Haa... I'll send soldiers to go to the hotel now, I'll also join them." She had already stood and was
already planning on changing into her uniform as she was wearing a pajamas before.
Took a few seconds before Derick replied, "okay."
Seems as if she's used to not being helped, Derick thought to himself. She could have just asked of
him to help her get her children from the hotel and he would have but he will have to watch from afar
and hope she's successful in her quest.
Katherine changed into her uniform very quickly and left the military base with the five Eastern Ocean
City soldiers. Soon, they arrived at Torime Hotel. She had also informed the Western Ocean City
soldiers lurking around Richard's house to meet her at the hotel and they had even got there before
she arrived
She immediately asked of the room that Richard was but the receptionist told her that he had just left.
"Just left?" She asked, not wanting to believe the receptionist's words. Eventhough the receptionist
nodded affirmatively, she asked, "are you trying to cover up for him?"
"No. He has truly left," the petite receptionist was getting scared. She knew she was telling the truth but
why was Katherine not believing her?
Katherine then ordered for the soldiers to search every rooms in the hotel and they did, but couldn't find
Richard.
Katherine almost cry, she was very frustrated. Derick wasn't lying when he said Richard was here, it's
just that he had just checked out. Definitely, someone is giving Richard information about her moves.
She then Returned to the base. Once she stepped out of the car, she was so tired that she just leaned
by the car. Samantha walked out of the house when she noticed the sound of a car outside. She had
been waiting for her.
"I still can't find my children," Katherine said.
Samantha sighed helplessly, "why is the Marshall not helping though?"
"I think he's trying to. He located Richard's location but before we got there, he already left. I think there
is a mole here."
"We have up to a million officers here, I won't be surprised that there would be a few mole amidst us.
Why don't you just tell Marshall to help you find the kid and bring them home." Samantha advised.
"He's the god of war and you can't imagine how powerful he is. Only those of us that had fought side by
side with him know of how powerful he is."
Katherine helplessly picked up her phone and called Derrick. Although she was worried that he may be
busy and that she was probably disturbing him but he answered the call and asked, "have you found
your kids?"
"No. Richard left before I got to the hotel. I'm exhausted. Marshall, can you please help me bring them
over?" She asked.
Derick was quiet on the other end. Why was this so hard for her to say all these while? He thought to
himself and said to her, "I'm coming over soon. You can go and rest."
How does coming over to her building solve her current predicament? "Will you help me bring my
children over, please?"
"I have already started working on it, "Derick said.
"Okay. Okay...thank you," she said and hung up.
"He said he's working on it," Katherine's heart calmed a little. If she doesn't have any close connection
to the god of war, how could she have saved her children? Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
