Chapter 0366
“That would be lovely. I will organize it all.” Cassie had this massive smile on her face that made me feel a certain type of way. As she ran back inside, Colt put his hand on my lower back.
“That was nice of you to agree to meet with her.” We continued to
walk inside.
“Truthfully, I haven’t even tried to get to know her yet.”‘
“Why not?” Kris asked as we came up to our office.
“I could say it is because I am too busy but honestly, I have been avoiding her. Avoiding the whole situation.” Colt opened the door for us and closed it as we walked in. Taking a seat on the couch, Kris sat beside me and Colt sat at his desk.
“Why are you avoiding her? Haven’t you always wondered what your parents were like?” Kris pushed.
“I mean, I have but I assumed they were dead. My mother lived her life. in a cell and my dad lived on the streets. Doing things I probably don’t
I
want to know about. What would we talk about?”
“Tell her about your project and why they are important to you. Talk to her about our mom and how your live in her house or the drawings.
you have hung up.”
“I don’t know… I guess that is a good suggestion.”
“Listen, all I am saying is that I didn’t have a mother. Our’s died and I would give anything to have her back. You have a chance to get to know her. She might not be what you pictured but I think you would be surprised with how much you have in common with her.” Kris put her hand on my knee.
“I’ll try.” I said after a moment.
“Alec is going to burn that house down after he documents it all. We can get started without him.” Colt said, interrupting Kris. I wasn’t sure if he did that on purpose but I was thankful, regardless.
“Okay. So overall, I got the vibe that they would lure girls in from the front door and up to the office space. I would put money that they drugged the girls and either attacked them there or just moved them to the basement. As for the basement, I am thinking they put the girls into the holding cell before transferring them to the rooms. Now, the digs on the mattress. I sat on one and Alec helped me. From the position of them, the girl would be sitting up. Leaning against the wall. It felt like it was more of a viewing on how to shoot someone up. Like he was teaching people how to do drugs and control the women.” Kris looked at Colt.
“Really?” Colt leaned back and looked at Kristen. It was then I felt like I was more of a bystander than actually part of this conversation.
“The dips on the mattress only get there by prolonged exposure. Someone had to be sitting on the edge of it for hours to days. The girls were sitting up. Now, they could have very well been assaulted but it felt more like someone learning to do injections.”
“Intersting.” Colt touched the tips of his fingers together as he looked at his twin.
“I think they had a business of getting girls and then selling them to people who sell them to buyers. They do the risky part. Find girls and trap them. Then they allow others to sell them for a cut and in return teach them how to manage their girls. They have a business partner out there who is in charge of finding buyers and they inquire the girls. Might be on looks or by availability. Maybe both but that is what I think.”

“What about how this might affect Penny?” Colt asked.
“Well, now that is where this gets a little tricky. I’m just throwing how an idea here….”
