Chapter 112: I Know Who Did This

Instead of eating the food set by Lucy, I ate some fresh fruits and got ready to go to the hospital.

I didn't trust Lucy anymore and I knew that Lucy would use Gerard's absence as an opportunity to strike.

I got ready and was about to leave my room but stopped in my steps. I walked to the curtain and held it for a while.

I wanted to open it but in the end, I didn't and just walked away. I figured that something strange happens whenever the curtains were opened and although I didn't know why, I guessed it was because I was already used to living with Gerard's lifestyle.

I sighed and walked out of the room and walked to a different room where Lucy was ironing the clothes.

"I'll be out for a bit. I have some important things to take care of but don't worry, I'll be back before my curfew." I assured and she nodded with a smile.

If I didn't know her skims, I would have thought that she was an angel with an innocent soul.

'You just wait Lucy. I want to know everything there is to know first before making you pay for this lousy mistake. No one hurts Ayla and goes unpunished.' I smiled sinisterly and walked away like the cheerful girl that I was.

I arrived at the hospital in no time and saw Kara still sleeping in bed. I smiled seeing her face with more colour than last night.

My eyes fell on the bandage on her wrist and I recalled what that man said yesterday. I sighed and my brows raised thinking if what he said was true or this was only a coincidence.

I watched her for a while and soon, the door opened. It was Kel. She looked so stressed and exhausted as though she had not slept since last night.

Her lips were chapped and her eyebags dark. It took her a second to realize I was in the room.

"Ayla... You're here." she had just closed the door and was walking towards me.

I smiled slightly and nodded. "Look at you. You don't look as though you had a minute of sleep." I commented on her looks and she smiled a little.

She placed the tray in her hands down and sat on the chair opposite the bed. She looked at Kara lovingly and spoke.

"She came to the mansion from the countryside and she acted so proper and was very protective of me. Whenever I got hurt even in the slightest, she wouldn't stand up for me and defend me. She was like the sister I had always prayed for." Kel narrated. She looked sad but didn't cry at all. This was because she was already exhausted and had cried a lot last night.

I sighed but didn't say anything. There was nothing I could say. But one certain thing was the fact that this was indeed my friend Kara and now, I knew that whatever she did on Friday morning was for a reason.

There was a long silence in the room but what I heard next wasn't what I had anticipated at all.

"I know who did this," Kel responded and I lifted my head in surprise.

She looked hesitant to say who it was but after letting out a sigh, she looked more determined and said it straight off.

"My mom."

I looked at her confused. Did she know what she was talking about or was she under the influence of alcohol?

Could this revelation of hers be because she had not slept all night? Maybe she thought too much about what happened to Kara and was just looking for someone to blame.

"Kel... Are you sure?" I wanted to confirm before jumping to a conclusion and she nodded in affirmation.

I sighed and didn't know what to say for a while. If her mother was indeed responsible for treating Kara this way, she will definitely face the law.

"I can't tell the police neither can I tell the doctors because she wouldn't face the consequences of her actions because of her status and power. And to make it worse, I don't have evidence." Kel looked worried. Although she loved her mother so much, she couldn't continue to see Kara suffer like this.

"This isn't the first time," Kel whispered and I sighed. This was going to be tough but I can't turn a blind eye.

I looked at Kara and wondered what to do. Just then, Qin's phone beeped. It was a message from Madison. She had finally replied to the message I sent her yesterday.

"Don't get involved." was her response. This wasn't helpful at all. I needed to know what I was up against.

"Stay with Kara, I'll be back soon," I told Kel before rushing out. I had to find what the basilisk was and how to stop it before it does more harm and if Kel was right, it only means I had to have a chat with her mom.

I tied my hair in a ponytail and waved for a taxi to stop. "Where to ma'am?" he asked.

"Take me to St George hospital." he nodded and drove off Immediately. I rushed in and went straight to Qin's office.

"Maam, is he expecting you?" the secretary asked but I wasn't in the mood for questions and answers and just rushed into the office.

"Miss you can't..." she followed but I barged in and walked straight to his desk and placed the phone on his table.

Qin looked up confused but when he saw the secretary's worried face, he signalled to her that it was okay.

"Mrs Jarek, why did you return the phone? You should hold on to it until Gerard comes back," he suggested not understanding why I was here.

I sighed and sat on the chair opposite his. "Take a look at the photo." I requested and he took the phone then zoomed in to see what I was talking about.

I could notice the slight change in his expression and I knew that certainly, something was up. "Is this from the patient from yesterday?" he asked and I nodded.

He dropped the phone and passed it back to me. "I don't know what that mark means. It must have been caused by a reptile or something of that sort."

Qin was obvious the worse when it came to lying. I could see it all over his face that he knew that this was but didn't want to say.

I sighed and leaned back on the chair. "Basilisk, have you ever heard about it?" I asked and he stopped in his movement. His body became rigid and the look on his face froze.

He sighed after a few seconds and leaned forward, "Ayla, I suggest you don't get involved with things like this."

This was the same thing Madison said to me and I really wanted to know why they were shielding me from knowing the truth. Someone's life was on the line.

"One was caught yesterday." I decided to act smart and luckily for me, he fell for the bait.

"Where? When? Where did they take it to? Did it reveal its true self?" he asked so many questions all at once.

I continued to lie about it just so to extract more information. "The organization said it's still in its human form but they can't tell when it would change."

I was told by that man from yesterday that these creatures take on human form and that was what I was using now.

"You have to tell me where this creature is. If it reveals its true self, everyone in that organization is as good as dead." he was so impatient and had already grabbed his jacket.

I looked at him indifferently and he finally understood that this was just a lie.

He sat back after realizing that he had given so much information.

"How can I find it?" I asked and he sighed.

##

"She's looking for the basilisk and I don't know how to stop her," Qin reported to Gerard after Ayla had already left his place.

"You didn't tell her the truth did you?" Gerard asked from the other end. His voice was cold and although he tried to hide his worry, he was extremely worried about Ayla.

"Your wife is like a ticking bomb. I almost lost my life." Qin lamented indirectly answering the question.

"You aren't answering the question." Gerard's voice was very cold and stern and there was silence at the other end for a long time.

Gerard pinched the space between his brow and dropped the call.

He was about to call Ayla when her call came in. "Good morning..." she greeted cheerfully.

Gerard wanted to ask where she was but didn't want to make her feel awkward. "Um... Did you sleep well?" he asked and a cheerful voice came from the other end.

"Yes. I slept like a baby. I've just left the hospital." she responded.

"Where to?" he asked.

"Nowhere important. I just have some unfinished business." she excused but then continued.

"I know Qin reported to you but I promise I won't do anything serious till you come back," I reported and he nodded.

"Make sure you wait for me." he requested again and she reassured.

The lines got disconnected and Ayla sighed. She promised not to do anything 'serious' but didn't promise not to do anything at all.

She looked up at the mansion and sighed.. It was Kel's house.
