Detective Farmouth said nothing as he listened to what the Chief said. All he could do was remember what Lelone said, “Sometimes karma lets other people do her job for her.”
He wasn’t going to bother telling the Chief that he knew first hand who karma was because they had already looked at the evidence and the Coroner had already ruled the deaths a horrible accident and a suicide. He still had to worry about the burial of his son.
As he was walking out the office he got a call, “Hey Dad.”
“Hey Della. What’s going on? Is there something going on with you or the babies?”
“Well yea sort of. But I didn’t call to talk about that. I called to let you know that Lucian is awake and is doing perfectly fine.”
Smiling at the news he quickly changed his face to concern while asking, “What’s wrong with you?”
With a mixture of happy and loss going through her she replied, “Well I think it’s as good a time as any to tell you that I’m expecting again. Not only that but I’m having twins.”
This brought a bigger smile to his lips even though his heart was still heavy with the loss of a son that will never see his children born. He rushed out the door and headed straight to the hospital. Sitting there in the room was everyone who was the most important to him. He looked around the room and his eyes rested on Lucian and then on Della and the babies, then he looked over at Leone who stood next to the door. In that moment he couldn’t be more relieved
with how she handled the situation. Here was this petite beauty who took it upon herself to deal with the enemy without ever alarming anyone about who the enemy was. Making them all safer but also sending a warning to anyone else who would be dumb enough to try it.
Be careful who you make your enemy. You never know you else you have to deal with in the process.
