Hunted 181_Burn those who burned me!

Chapter 181 

 We weren’t sure why, but somehow I not only survived, but I ended up with my adoptive mother Diana Teagues. I can still remember sitting in shock as tears flooded my cheeks. I wasn’t sure if I was crying because my biological mother wanted me dead, or if I was crying because I knew I had been right about my adoptive mother all this time.

 I began tough hysterically, not sure which of the emotions were controlling it.

 “I knew it…I knew it!!!” 

 Kai sat in silence as I continued tough, the tears blurring my vision. He allowed my moment before providing mefort. I curled into hisp as I continued to cry.

 “It’s okay my love…I’m here…cry as much as you need too.”

 After I finally settled down, Kai told me he had Tyler tracking down this Benard person.

 “I think he’ll be able to answer a lot of questions about what happened that night and why Sharon Rochester went through such great lengths to….”

 The irony of it all was like rusted blood on my tongue. All those years of her cursing me every time I mentioned my adopted mother. iming that I was ungrateful and cruel by bringing up the woman that stole me….turns out she was just upset the job wasn’t finished.

 “After we track him down, we’ll be bringing him here for an interrogation.” 

 Kai looked at me with a serious expression, I could tell he’d taken all of this personal.

 “I want to be there…for the interrogation.”

 I needed to hear the truth with my own ears. With slight hesitation, Kai nodded in agreement as he began his pursuit of Benard Thorton.

 Over the next several weeks following; I decided to find out as much as I could about my adoptive mother. Having House Christiansen to back me up allowed me a lot of opportunities.

 I learned she was actually from a small vige of the coast of South Bay. She married a man named Jacob Teagues when they were fresh out of college. Jacob Teagues was a dentist with his own

 practice in Willington. He was originally from Kingston and moved to South Bay for school. He fell in love with my mother shortly after and decided to stay.

 From what I learned, they had a very happy marriage. She became pregnant a few years after. However, during her eighth month, her husband’s father passed causing them to return to Kingston. Unfortunately, shortly after the funeral, her husband was stabbed and died from a robbery gone wrong. He’d went out to pick up some fried pork for my mother. She ended up passing out at the hospital and the fall caused her to lose her baby. The surgery also resulted in her having an emergency hysterectomy.

 The nurse I spoke with informed me my motherid in Memorial for over five weeks due to recovery and depression. Memorial was also the same hospital my biological mother had all of her kids.

 The dots were starting to connect. All that was left was to find Benard Thorton. The day Tyler found him, Kai and I were sitting in my bedroom ying a game of checkers. Just as I was about to invade his territory for the king, Kai’s phone began to buzz. Kai put the phone on speaker so that I could hear the conversation as well. Since telling me about Zelma, he kept me involved in everything

 regarding the Rochesters.

 “Hey Ty, what’s up?” 

 Pause.

 “You guys aren’t busy are you?” 

 Tyler asked in a mischievous tone causing Kai’s ears to redden.

 “What is it Tyler!” 

 “Rx, rx! I call baring good news….I’ve found Benard Thorton.”
