The Stranger Behind My Orgasm novel Chapter 106

Chapter 106: WHERE THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A FUCKING WAY

Abigail

The yellow tape on Cole’s house was still up, billowing in the cool evening breeze that whipped at it.

I leaned forward against the dashboard, narrowing as I stared through the windscreen. Why were the police investigation tapes still around the building?

"I thought they already concluded that it was a robbery," I grumbled.

"Mm." Annette was seated in the passenger seat, clicking her tongue as she tapped rapidly on her system.

Long green and red codes marred the dark computer screen. She was hacking into the surveillance street camera on the street adjacent to Cole’s house. The one directly opposite it had been destroyed, the murderers were smart, I’ll give them that.

"So why is the tape still there?" I leaned back in my seat. "Are they keeping the case open?"

"Or keeping people out," She shrugged.

We had parked two blocks down, between a delivery van and a beat-up Honda that hadn’t moved in what looked like months, considering all the grime and dust that covered it.

Parking near Cole’s house would only draw the attention of whoever was watching that house.

God, now I was as paranoid as Cole.

But I had to be. He was the most paranoid man I ever met in my life and he was dead. If anything, I had to be even more paranoid than he was.

The people who killed my parents would definitely kill me too. They didn’t know I was linked to Cole yet and he must have died protecting that.

The street around us was quiet. There was a man walking his little poodle dog, two kids on bikes at the far end.

"There done, I’m downloading the feed now," She announced, leaning back and cracking her fingers. "So, what’s the plan to appease your boss?"

Appease? That brute was not going to be easily appeased. "I’ll work harder,"

"Really, Abby? You’ll let him work you to the bone?" A bemusing smile danced on her lips.

"I hurt him," I mumbled. "I’ve never seen that torn look on his face before so yeah, I’ll work hard, get shouted at, repeat until he gets tired of being angry."

She clicked her tongue. "Or," she drawled, "You walk in tomorrow morning, sit on the edge of his desk, and let the tits do the talking." She gestured at my chest.

"The man could not resist you in any form, acting like you seduced him or some shit like that. It was a mutual decision. Flash him those tits, jiggled it a little and bam, problem solved."

A laugh cracked out of my lips. "With how mad he is, I’m pretty sure he would stamp you’re fired on them instead."

"With his sexy lips though."

I pressed my lips together trying to kill the laugh bubbling up my throat but I failed completely.

"There’s the laughter I’ve been dying to see for days," She grinned, nudging my shoulder with hers. "It sucked to see you all gloomy you know? I know things aren’t looking up right now, but it’ll all turn out fine."

"Thanks Annie,"

Her head tipped towards the laptop screen and she grinned. "Now praise me like the queen I am, because I just got you, your CCTV feed."

"All hail Annette Conquistador!" I did a mock bow before, leaning closer to watch the screen.
