Chapter 6 – The mysterious confession
John, suddenly remembering cried out , “I was going to tell you but got interrupted, I have some information on their.. past.”
“What?” Taj exclaimed. It was weird for her husband seeing his wife panic for she never did so even in the toughest of situations. Once, John was unable to pay the rent on time and was given a five day extension. He was very young and had just left his parents at that time. He did not want to bother them as they were not financially sound but Taj kept her calm, helping John work extra hours and supporting him in every way she could. Knowing John had that support system at home, it was his fuel which helped him rise even more which has brought the couple this far, John now is one of the most important employees, they have a beautiful house they can call their love and affection the purest and rarest of them all and that will never wither away. Life was merry, except.. this.
“John!” Taj exclaimed again.
John realizing that he was deep embedded in his thoughts replied,
“Oh sorry. It is..”
“It is?”
“Just unusual to see you in this way..”
“... umm well..just tell what you know already! We have to get to the crux of the problem as soon as possible.”
“ So, in the newspaper with VERY small letters there was a message for this man, Lucas who now as we know is Mr. Robertson. It says,
“Lucas, I will find you. But first I must rip off all the evidence. What you have done to me shall not be done by any man on earth and I will make sure you repent.”
“What you have done to me shall not be done by ANY man on EARTH! This seems serious, John.” Taj declared and continued
“I suggest you talk to Mr. Robertson immediately. Please ask him to be honest. We need honesty or else the problem seems to be.. fatal.”
“OK.” John replied admittedly.
He called Mr. Robertson. Almost immediately, Mr. Robertson picked up.
“Hmm. Talk to me after the call.” Taj said and left deep within her own thoughts.
“Hello, sir?”
“Yes, John? Is Mrs. Carson OK?”
“Fine, sir.”
“ Oh, good ,good.”
John was still bewildered at how calm the man was.
“Sir, may I.. meet you?”
“Harvard’s Cafe”
“Umm – “
“By 7 30”
Mr. Robertson hung up the phone.
Taj came in and said ,
“Something about this guy is.. wrong. His ring tone was from.. Charlie’s secret angels – the new release.”
“Yeah, so?”
“Join the dots! There was a surprise villain, remember? Who was the actual mastermind and captures Naomi to get the invention.. what if the same has happened here?”
“I am completely in the dark..”
“ What if, Mr. Robertson never had affections for Amelie but wanted something she had and so manipulated and used her to get it.”
“Yes..”
“This is crucial, John. You must leave for the Harvard Cafe IMMEDIATELY. If we do not come to the bottom of this...
Our lives might be at stake..”
