Her Marriage, Her Revenge



Chapter 60 In the Verge of Being Caught

|

Dreckos as planned went to their wedding reception area. She saw Madelie already sitting in the middle where the special table and chairs for the groom and bride were arranged strategically. He approached Madelie and sat beside her.

"Madelie, the King and Queen, and the whole family are in trouble. Just cooperate as I do our plan to capture the mastermind," Dreckos whispered to Madelie, whose eyes grew big. She automatically put her hand on her mouth to avoid from gasping.

"Stay calm and relax Sweetheart, everything is going to be alright," Dreckos whispered again and kissed her cheek lightly. Madelie nodded and tried to smile.

"Time to start our plan," Dreckos murmured as he stood up and got the microphone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our apologies for the delays in our ceremony; however, the King and Queen including their children are not yet around. I considered them as the closest ones in my heart, so I cannot start this celebration without them. Please anyone who could tell me if you have seen them already?" Dreckos announced in accordance with their plot.

Everyone in the reception looked at each other somewhat surprised. "So where is King Timodore and his family?" almost everyone asked in unison. "Anyone who saw them arrived in the hotel?" Dreckos asked again but none seemed to know.

Then Dreckos saw Toremo from afar sitting in one of the guest chairs.

"Toremo, have you seen them?" He called on the attention of Toremo, who was startled when he heard his name being mentioned by Dreckos. Abruptly Toremo stood up almost speechless. What will he say? He saw Quacey's ghost? He shook his head and acted as if so worried. "Dreckos, I have been looking for them also since I arrived here a while ago... but I was not able to see them."

Dreckos from afar stared at Toremo with his squinting eyes. "Toremo, as far as I know, you were assigned to convoy or follow them for protection. How come you arrived here first?" he asked with a tone, intriguing all the guests present.

Toremo was somehow shaken by Dreckos' statement but wicked as he could be, he knows how to evade questions like these. "Dreckos their driver seemed to have driven so fast that I lost trail of them. So, I just thought they were here already,” he replied trying to divert the attention of everyone on the thought that it was the driver's fault and not him.

"I can't believe you Toremo to take things that easy and lightly," Dreckos shouted making everyone turn their heads facing Toremo with quizzical eyes. Toremo suddenly was at a loss for words.

Dreckos could sense something as to how Toremo reacted. He let a few more minutes pass before he got the microphone again.

"Guests you can eat now but I am

going to do what it needs to be

done. I have this feeling that something really happened to King Timodore and his family. Madelie, my wife will stay with you." Dreckos announced once again.

"If the King and his family are missing, then all of us will be searching for them," said one of the guests. Thereafter, all the guests almost in unison stood-up except Toremo who was plastered on his chair.

Dreckos keenly observed all Toremo's actions and reactions. His instinct is telling him something the way Toremo has been reacting.

"Toremo, where do you think we should search first for the King and his family?" Dreckos approached Toremo who is still sitting on the chair.

Toremo was startled as DreckosNôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

approached him looking at him with

such doubts and accusations. Narrowing his eyes he retorted to Dreckes. "Why is it that I can sense you are implying that I did

something why the King and his

family are missing now?"

"I never even thought of that Toremo but because you said so, I became curious and in doubt if indeed you did something why the King and his family are missing now." Dreckos with clenched teeth looked at Toremo fiercely.

Angered with Dreckos words, Toremo stood up and retorted sharply, "Are you accusing me Dreckos? I am the sole nephew of King Timodore and you are just his right-hand man. You have no right to question me like that!"

"Oh yeah, good thing you reminded me Toremo that you are the sole nephew and could be the next on the throne just in case the King and his whole family will perish. Does it ring a bell that it might be you who has the sole motive too, to kill the King and his whole family?" Dreckos firmly answered back.

Toremo was shocked.

"Am I right Toremo?" Dreckos asked while grabbing Toremo's collar.

Toremo being sometimes so cowardly has been attacked by nervousness thinking that Dreckos knew he has something to do with why the King and his family are missing.

Looking at how Toremo reacted, Dreckos could surmise that he seems to be guilty.

"You asshole, did you kill them? Where did your goons kill them? On their way while coming here? At the hilltop? Answer me, you idiot!"Dreckos tightened his right hand that is grabbing now Toremo's collar.
