CAL’S REVENGE
Chapter Ten
Two Weeks Later
Cal's father still had no plan,
so Cal, fed up, finally tried to put his plan into action.
He turned to his father. "I
want you to fake being sick."
"Then what?"
"When a guard comes to see what
is wrong, we will overpower him."
Nathan nodded his head.
As planned, Nathan faked being
sick, so a guard came over. "What is wrong?"
"I think my father needs to
be taken to the hospital."
The guard nodded his head and
slowly opened the door.
Cal pushed the guard to the
floor. "Listen," he said as he put a knife he had hidden to the back
of the guard’s neck. "I want you to count to one hundred. Do not get up
until you count to one hundred. Is that clear?"
"Yes," the frightened
guard replied.
"Good," Cal replied
with an evil smile.

Rose and Jack were getting ready
when there was a knock on their door.
"Who could it be?" Rose
asked.
"I will find out," Jack
replied, putting on his shoes.
"I will come with you,"
Rose said, putting on the new hat that Jack had bought for her.
"Are you ready?" Jack
asked.
Rose nodded.
"Let's go, then."
A Few Minutes Later
"Hello, sweetpea," Cal
said.
"What are you two doing
here?"
"We came to pay you and Jack
a visit," Cal replied, eyeing Jack. He grabbed Rose's arm.
"Let go of me."
"Not a chance, sweetpea. You
may have gotten away from me once, but not again," he said as he started
to pull Rose to the stairs.
Jack tried to help Rose, but was
hold back by Nathan.
"Let go of me, you evil
monster!" Rose said.
Cal slapped Rose. "Shut
up."
Rose did not say anything else,
but kept trying to escape from Cal's tight grip.
When they were at the top of the
stairs, Cal tried to take Rose's clothes off. Rose, however, fought back and
pushed him. Cal lost his balance and fell over the banister. He landed face
down. Rose stood there in shock.
Hearing the noise, Nathan and
Jack came running.
Seeing Cal unmoving on the floor,
Nathan turned on Rose. "You murdered my son."
"No! It was an accident. He
was attacking me."
"You will pay for what you
have done."
"Leave Rose alone. It was an
accident. I saw what happened," Jack replied as he went to comfort a still
shocked Rose.
Nathan grabbed Jack around the
neck and started choking him. Rose tried to pull Nathan off of Jack, but he was
strong. He was stronger than Cal had been, and Cal had been very strong.
Rose knew that if she did not do
anything, Jack could be killed. So she grabbed a heavy object that was laying
on a small table and hit Nathan over the head with it. He fell on top of Jack,
who pushed him off.
Rose ran over to Jack. "I am
glad you are all right," she said, hugging him.
"I was about to lose
consciousness," Jack replied.
Rose hugged Jack tighter, knowing
she had saved him from being killed.
Two Hours Later
"Don't worry about being
charged with anything. You killed Caledon Hockley in self-defense and Nathan
Hockley saving your husband," a police officer told Rose.
"Thank you," Rose
replied.
The policeman nodded. "If
you two need anything, give me a call."
"Thank you," Jack
replied as he left.
