Lost but Found

Chapter 41

I swear, all the men here were either drooling or gawking or both.

Even her husband

The coronation process began and anna look uncomfortable as ever.

After everything was done, someone brought different types of gun on a silver platter and Anna was asked to pick one.

Knowing anna I knew she'll either pick up a big or shiny one or both actually

And that she dose.

I clapped along with the crowd and not a second later, someone bumped into me.

"Sorry man, I didn't see you there" a nervous guy said.

"Who are you" I asked because I've never seen this guy before

"I'm one of the leader's messenger" he said

"And which one if them is your leader"

"Look, it was nice meeting you and all but I have to go now, I've been sent an errand"

With that he left.

Not strange at all

But what I didn't notice is that the guy was wearing the same outfit as me

Someone came and whispered something into Alex's ear and he suddenly shouted

"close the doors and seal all exit, there's a mole here"

*****************

ANNA'S POV

"Close the doors and seal all exit, there's a mole here" alex shouted and soon men with guns started running around.

Then our CCTV guy came with a footage and showed Alex.

In the video, someone wearing a black  button down short sleeve shirt, paired with black jeans, black canvas, with a black beanie, blonde hair peeking out from the beanie that had FIRE written on it. We could see the face of the person.

The guy entered Alex's office and brought out a little USB from his pocket and inserted it into Alex's computer, he started typing furiously on the computer, and after he was done, he quickly removed the USB and slipped out of the room, that's where the video ended

"What about the hallway security cameras?" Alex asked

"Seems like they were disabled sir"

"How" Alex demanded angrily

"I'm sorry sir, but I don't really know how, we were to busy securing the wedding venue to notice that someone entered the house"

"Dammit"

"We are going to have a thorough check on all the youngsters here, because our mole seems to be very young, sorry for the convenience" Alex announced

But before the search even began, someone was pushed towards me and Alex.

"He was at the back of the crowd" the goon said

The person had their face down, then slowly started looking up.

I gasped, someone else gasped, another gasp follow

"AIDEN?" I asked

"What were you doing in my office" alex asked immediately

"I wasn't in your office" Aiden said flatly

"Bullshit!....search him"

"Yes, search me, you'll find nothing on me"

"Then why the heck are you here and dressed like that?"

"I just came for the wedding"

"Oh stop lying"

"I'm not, check your so called footage, I was at the wedding" Aiden shouted and I told the CCTV guy to do as told, indeed alex was at the wedding standing behind a flower the whole time

But then how?

I know my best friend and I know he'll never do something like this but can someone explain who that imposter is

"When was that person I'm the office?" I asked

"11:22am, right after the wedding"

"And do you have the footage of the house after the wedding?"

"No miss, it was disabled, I guess the person forgot that the office would have a security camera"

"Do the search" Alex gave out orders.

They immediately started the search, and a USB and two cellphones were brought out of Aiden's pocket

"I don't know how those got there, I'm telling the truth" Aiden pleaded

"And we should believe you why?"

"Anna tell them you believe me, I didn't do it"

I opened my mouth to say that I do believe him but an old man who is a gang leader interrupted me.

"Mrs Ryder, please consider this as your first gang case, show us that you can be a great and wise leader" the middle aged gruffy man said.

I look at everyone and everyone stared right back

Then I look down to my friend who was on his knees

I know what everyone wants to hear.....but I just can't do it....

"We are waiting for your reply Annabelle" a cold scratchy voice said.

I sighed

"Based on the evidence presented, I would said mr Aiden wallace is only a suspect, he might be getting framed for this, so that's why I've decided to investigate this myself and discover the truth.......but till then, mr Aiden would just have to be taken as a prisoner"

I don't know what I just said, but I hear officers saying it a lot.....not all of it, but, you get it right?

I watched helplessly as Aiden was taken away by two of my men and dragged down to our cellar.

Clap

Clap

Clap

And soon, everyone in the room was clapping and smiling amongst themselves.

Seriously, its not as if I just did a big thing, I just imprisoned someone because of the evidence placed.

And one, gang or not would know what to do?

"You might be very young and not strong enough for battles, but you do have a very good developing brain" the middle aged gruffy man complimented"

I only smiled in return
