Chapter 135 Sweet Karma

• All four men sat around a table in the VIP lounge in Michael's club impatiently waiting for information before they made their moves. Alexander wasn't without tears in his eyes, as hours ticked by he feared for the worse and the safety of his precious daughter. He didn't like not knowing what the situation was but all he could do was wait with the rest and so he sat, legs bouncing shakily, palms sweaty, heart beating an unsteady rhythm within his chest. Easton would often look toward him and briefly grab one of his hands, squeezing them reassuringly, telling him without speaking out loud that he was there with him. Michael's phone began to ring, tearing apart the silence that has clouded them for a brief moment, the sound had Alexander jumping and his eyes snapped toward Michael who frowned upon seeing the caller. Alexander paid attention to his call, hoping it was the one they were expecting but once he heard that name, he wanted to strangle her through the phone.
• "Maria?" Michael started, his voice filled with concern yet relieved, Alexander almost questioned his sanity if he didn't know any better. "My, God, my love, how I have waited to hear from you, where are you? Are you alright? How is Allison?" His words tumbled over themselves as he spoke without a break in between.
• "They took our baby girl, my love, and left me stranded by the road all bruised. I tried to fight the best I could but there was very little that I could do." She cried, although the shock of what had happened with Lorenzo hadn't left her, still her heart danced around with such great joy once she heard the voice of her worried husband. Lorenzo may have fooled her but she still has Michael and now with Lina out of the picture she is sure to have his love all to herself now.
