Their End, My Beginning novel Chapter 48

“But sir, you said that we could come and get the evidence before you close the case. How can you change that now?”

“I don’t remember anyone calling anyone named Nicholas to tell about the case being closed. We called a man named Nathaniel. Also we dont give the evidence out to anyone.” Says the officer with annoyance. I looked at Amanda to know why she said uncle Nick got the call if what the officer said was true. She was sweating but the temperature was cold in here. Was she lying about getting the call? Even so how did she know the case was being closed if she didn’t?

As if knowing that I was looking at her for answers she regained her composure. “Maybe you might have left for your break when we got the call.” She said looking at the officer with confidence.

What she said might be true because it made the officer to scratch his bald head. “Maybe. Even then you cant take the evidence because the case has been closed already.”

“What? But..” We both began to say but was interrupted by the officer.

“No buts it is what it is. Please leave if you have nothing else to ask.” He said repeating what he said for the past 30 mins.

I groaned in frustration. I need the laptop. How can they just close the case without even doing anything? I then began looking around frantically hoping to see anything to help me. Speaking of helping me where is Ryder?

I looked outside to see him talking to someone on the phone. What can be more important at the moment than getting the laptop? Even if it was something at his office he could have done it afterwards not now when I need him. He went out a few minutes earlier when the officer kept on saying he cant give us the laptop.

I go out of the police station to him and shake his arm to get his attention. He turned to me annoyed but then his eyes softened when he realised it was me who disturbed his call. He put a hand over the speaker of the phone and leaned to me. “I am on phone give me a minute I will come to you.” He whispered and then went back to his phone. I huffed in annoyance.

“Okay Neo thank you.” I heard an exasperated gasp from the other side. I guess he hadn’t heard Ry say thanks before.

“Well that was a slip of tongue don’t expect it again.” Ry chuckled and hang up his phone.

He turned towards me and took my hands in his and walked towards the police station as if he didn’t notice my expression saying Who-the-hell-was-on-the-phone?

“Ry.” I said with annoyance

“Yes" he said imitating me.

“Didn’t you hear what the officer said why weren’t you doing anything. Dad said with your power you could get it easily.”

“He is right if I was the only powerful party involved in it.” Ry said making me stop walking, stopping him as well.
