The Law of Attraction - Chapter 671

Daryl gritted his teeth because he understood what Karen was implying. For years, he had been asking himself why his mother would waste her life on drugs and alcohol just like that night. And he had always assumed that his mother’s depression because of his father had cost her her life when she was driving back home that night.

It turns out that it was not really what happened. It was not an accident, but a carefully hatched plot by the monster in front of him to deliberately kill his mother!

“So you are admitting that my mother’s death was not an accident alone? That you are responsible? You drugged her and staged everything to look like an accident!” he growled, trying to control himself from smashing the glass that separated him from Karen, to grab the woman’s neck and kill her at that very moment.

Karen only laughed and said, “Your mother was too stupid. Good thing that in those days that area did not have CCTV cameras, so everything went perfectly according to plan.

You see, your mother had the nerve to talk to me and tell me that she will let go of her husband and leave him to me alone. Did she really think I was after her husband who would have been nothing as soon as your mother divorced him?

You see, your father was so head over heels in love with me that he never even suspected me. He was stupid and willing enough to leave your mother without any money for himself just to be with me! So I knew I had to do something.

What I have always wanted are money and power! Your mother needed to die while they were married so Marcus could gain all power over her company. Then I would replace her eventually and gain full control in the long run. Not until you ruined everything by coming back!”

Daryl controlled his ragged and heavy breathing. He looked straight into Karen’s eyes with a sharp and deadly glare as he said, “I will make sure you rot in jail, Karen, and I will definitely not let you see the outside world for a long time. Wait in here for your son to join you soon, in a prison cell where you two belong together!”

Karen clicked her tongue and fired with a smirk, “Let’s see then how things unfold. I hope your wife doesn’t have an accident herself, cause you see, those men who I have hired love women. Playing with their victims first while waiting to get paid.”

Daryl stood up, ignoring Karen’s words, but deep in his heart, he was dying with concern for his wife. Outside the prison, Kyle and Liam were waiting for him. He handed Kyle the recording of the conversation that he had saved.

“She is also responsible for my mother’s death, Kyle. Please, I beg you and Sarah to make sure that woman will rot in jail with a life sentence without parole.”

“I will make sure, Daryl.” Kyle answered emphatically.

“They are waiting for you outside,” Liam interrupted, referring to the military team tasked with rescuing Kenzie. He did not ask Daryl if he was sure about joining the rescue team because it could be dangerous. He understood Daryl’s feelings and if Liam were in Daryl’s shoes he would do the same, even if it was hell he had to go through to save Lana.

“Sorry to bother you at this time, bro,” Daryl whispered to Liam.

“Nah, it’s nothing. Go and get your wife now. I will help Kyle and Sarah with matters here. Jorge will monitor your father so don’t worry and just think about Kenzie.” Liam assured  Daryl who hurriedly left with the military.

Meanwhile, inside a small room, Kenzie, who had been unconscious for some time, slowly opened her eyes. She was feeling dizzy. She tried to move and was horrified to discover that her hands and feet were tied tightly behind her back. She quickly moved to sit on the couch where she seemed to have been sleeping for God knows how long.

The last thing she remembered was a man putting his arm on her shoulders and pointing a gun to her side, then something had covered her nose, causing her to lose consciousness.

“You’re finally awake.” she heard Harry’s familiar voice. He had not left Kenzie alone because he was afraid of what the men outside would do to her after seeing how they had looked at Kenzie, with malice in their eyes.

When he had gone to meet his mother, the first thing she wanted him to do was to contact a number. This was one of his mother’s backup plans that suited the situation they were in.

He had tried to prevent it by talking it out with Kenzie but obviously, Kenzie was like Daryl who would never let his mother off the hook. There would be no backing down this time. He could not lose his mother too after losing the man who was like a father to him.

“Harry, what are you doing? Untie me! If you do this, you will only make the situation worse Harry. Let your mother get what she deserves and try to live a normal life, Harry. Move on… It’s not too late, let me go,” Kenzie whispered.

“Quiet! If you want yourself and the child inside you to be safe then you will shut up!” Harry barked.

‘The child inside me?’ Kenzie wondered, confused.

“I really envied Daryl from the beginning. He has everything I want and now he is going to be a father. He told me this himself, maybe because he is so worried that I will hurt you, so he wanted me to know that you’re pregnant.” Harry mumbled as he continued to play a game on his mobile phone. He was sitting in front of Kenzie.

Now she understood what had happened.

“I know you’re not this heartless, Harry. The baby inside me is innocent so please let me go now,” Kenzie convinced.

Harry smirked as he looked at her and simply said, “It’s too late Kenzie. Even if I let you go, those men outside will definitely not let you off.”

“Won’t they listen to you? I will give them all the money they want,” Kenzie said. She was worried about Daryl too and she did not want him to get hurt. She knew how her husband would keep looking for her and try to save her at all costs. If she could solve everything with money without anyone getting hurt, especially Daryl, then that was what she would do.
