Chapter 48

(Rebecca's POV)
Me and Josh both headed home after our nice long conversation and i never realised that we were holding hands until Josh answered his phone. He released my hand and answered his phone. His mood had changed as soon as he hanged up. He looked scared and stressed.

"Er i have to go now"

"Wait will you come back for dinner I want to make us something special"

"Er alright I'll try I'll see you later" he runs out of the house and he jumps onto his motorbike

I entered the kitchen for the first time and i found the chef cooking something for dinner.

"Hi you must be the chef right"

"Yes i am do you need anything ma'am" he stands in a respectful posture before talking to me.

"Yeah i actually wanted to cook something for the family and i was wondering if you could help me" he looked a bit surprised I'm guessing no one came in here to cook before

"Of course ma'am but are you sure you want to cook i can handle everything myself"

"Yes I'm very sure now shall we start cooking" i tie my hair up and i wash my hands.

We got lots of vegetables and we chopped them all up. The chef made a nice healthy salad and i started roasting a chicken for the family since they loved eating meat whereas i ate things like tofu and lots of vegetables because i was a vegan.

I finished making all the food in three hours time and i was literally exhausted from all the cooking. I check the time to see it was 6 and it was time for dinner. I set the table with the help of the butler and chef.

Ben and Karen were surprised to see me setting the table.

"Wow what's all this" Ben asks sounding surprised

"The chef and i cooked for us all" the chef takes a bow and we all chuckle

"Really" Karen says while taking a seat next to Ben

"Yes and i will know serve you all" i cut up the chicken up and i serve it to both Karen and Benjamin. Sarah joins the table shortly and i serve her too.

"Thank you and Rebecca you sit down to" Benjamin says politely so i sit in my usual seat and i serve myself.

"Wait a minute where's Josh" Karen asks

"He said he'll be back for dinner but it's okay I won't eat until he's here you all can start"

"No no no none of us will eat until Josh arrives" Benjamin puts his knife and fork down.

We all wait for Josh patiently.
I tap my thigh and i look towards the door continuously to see if Josh came back.

Josh's family all looked hungry and they were all starting to get impatient for Josh. I tried calling him but he didn't answer. I was getting annoyed now because we waited half an hour for him and he still didn't arrive. I told him to be here for dinner if he couldn't make it why did he say he will come.

"Josh oh my god" Karen screams and we all look towards the door to see Josh covered in bruises and blood.

We all run towards him and he drops his helmet on the floor.

"Who did this to you Josh" Benjamin asks curiously

"Yes Josh who did this to you go on tell us" Karen asks

They all speak at once and Josh didn't know who to answer so he growled loudly.

"Bloody hell stop asking so much questions I'm fine i just got attacked by some thieves alright" i could tell he was lying by the way his eyes were twitching.

"Well did they take anything of yours" Karen asks

"Shall i call the cops" Benjamin brings his phone out

"No you do not need to call the cops alright this is none of your business so stay out of it" he points at his dad while showing attitude

"Of course it's my business if my son gets beaten up by a bunch of thieves and looks like a complete wreck"

"Like i told you before your not my dad your not related to me in any way so you shouldn't give a shit about me" Josh speaks rudely and his dad looked hurt by his words
Josh storms up to our room

"I'll be back" i go upstairs to find out what really happened

I enter the room to see Josh holding an ice pack on his head. He opens a first aid box and he takes out some ointment.

"Here Let me help you" i walk over to him and i take the ointment off him.

We both sit on the bed and he takes his t shirt off which was filled with blood stains. I was surprised to see how many cuts he had on his body. It looked really painful

"Oh my god you've been beaten up really bad" i gasp

I apply the ointment gently but he flinches a couple of times.

"Sorry" I apologise before continuing applying the ointment.

After i finish applying the ointment to his body and a bit on his face
He gets off of the bed but i pull him back.

"Tell me the truth what really happened" he ignores my question and tries to leave the room but i block his way

"You can't ignore me Josh i want to know what really happened and remember our deal you said you would answer every question i ask you honestly didn't you"

"I know i did but I can't tell you this if i could i would okay"

"Why not" i yell

"I JUST CANT TELL YOU NOW LEAVE ME ALONE" he shouts angrily

He lays on the recliner and he faces the other way.

"Fine but can i at least say one thing Whatever happened between you and your dad wasn't right i mean how long are gonna remain mad at him for. he loves you Josh and he cares about you too even though he didn't come back earlier you should be grateful that at least he's back and your family can become a whole again, if your mom can forgive him so can you and let me tell you something it's not good to hold onto grudges it's better to forgive and forget"

I knew he listened to every word i said and i hope it affects him because his behaviour is just unacceptable and I've had enough of him not telling me anything there's something bad happening to him but he's just not willing to tell me for some reason but I'm determined to find out tomorrow because I'm not gonna let this go so easily.

(The next day)
I wake up from bed and Josh was awake too. He got dressed into his clothes and he left our room without saying a word. I got ready quickly and i decided to follow where he went. I look out through the window to see him sit on his motorbike.

I run out of my room and i run down the stairs and out of the house. But Josh already started driving away. Luckily i had my driver leave my car here so i enter my car, start the engine and i followed him slyly.

It was going well until i got stuck in traffic and because Josh was on his motorbike he was able to over take all the traffic so i lost him.

"Ugh damn it" i hit my steering wheel and i push my hair back.
I started coming up with an idea of how to find him. After thinking for about five minutes I finally come up with an idea of how to find him.

I take my phone out and i dial Anthony's number "Hello Anthony are you at home" i ask and he replies yes.

I hang up the phone and i head straight to his house.
His house wasn't far from where i was so it didn't take too long to get there. I leave my car and i close the door shut before standing on the porch. I ring the doorbell and i wait for someone to open the door.

The door opens widely and Anthony was the one who opened it.

"Hi how are you" i hug him as soon as i see him

"Hi I'm good how are you" he asks nicely

"I'm great" i chuckle

"Alright well come in let me take you to the living room" he lets me in the house and he shows me around. There were pictures of Anthony and his wife Jennifer everywhere.

I could hear noise coming from the room Anthony lead me to. We both enter the living and Jennifer's entire family was here.

"Oh hello Rebecca I didn't know you were here" Jennifer greets nicely and she gives me a warm hug

"Yeah i just came now i was actually wondering if i could speak to your sister"

"Erm yeah she's in the kitchen you can speak to her there if you want"

"Alright I don't mind" she leads me to the kitchen and i see her sister pouring drinks in glasses.

"Hey sis Rebecca wants to speak to you about something"

"Oh hi Rebecca" her sister runs over to me and she hugs me too

"Hi Kelly how are you" i ask politely

"I'm good i guess anyways what did you wanna talk about"

We both sit on the counter seats and we talk.

"Yeah i wanted to know you know the garage you called to fix your car on the wedding day what's the garage called and where is it located" she thinks carefully while bitting her finger nails.

"Oh wait I've got their card that says all the details let me go get it" she goes over to her purse and she brings out the card.

She hands the card to me and i read the card details. The garage was called Richard's garage and it was located in a very random place that I've never heard of.
But i really appreciated her help.

"Thank you so much you don't know how much you've helped me right now" i hug her really tight and she was a bit confused

"Er okay no problem" she says awkwardly and we go back into the living room

"Hey Anthony i have to go now i got what i needed" i wave the card in front of Anthony who was sitting down with Jennifer's parents

"Er okay I'll just walk you out"

"No it's fine i can leave myself but thank you anyways i hope i see you soon bye everyone" i wave at everyone in the room before leaving the house.

I enter my car and i activate my cars navigator i type in the address of the garage and the navigator locates it straight away. I start my car and i follow the directions given by the navigator.

The location was quite far but i reached the place. The area was a dark place and The neighbourhood didn't look safe. I was a bit terrified there were men everywhere staring at me as i passed them. Most of them had jackets similar to Josh's. It was as if they were all a gang

I was finally able to find the main garage. The entrance looked horrible. I try entering but it was a fake entrance. It was just a wall that looked like the entrance. I look around to find the real entrance. The only thing i found was a window just on the side of the place.

The window was quite high up so i stood on the ledge and i peaked through the dirty window. I searched around to see what was inside and it really was a garage there were cars and bikes everywhere and men repairing them but there was also stacks of something hidden in a van.

I was able to recognise one of the guys working. It was Josh he was repairing a bike and his jacket was hanged on a hook just beside him.
Suddenly i see an aged man approach him with two other men standing on both sides of him.

Josh stopped working and he faced them with a scared expression on his face.

The men started talking but I couldn't understand what they were saying. I leaned closer and i could hear them talking loudly.

"Josh seriously i treated you like a son alright i gave you everything you wanted and i made you rich what more do you want Josh what is it gonna take for you to do one job right. The client you went to yesterday is really annoyed that you didn't give them the right drug"

"Ddrug" i stutter to myself I'm confused what does this mean

"I know i made a mistake and I'm sorry I'll do it right this time" Josh replies to the guy

"Josh i know why your acting like this i saw the news and I'm guessing that celebrity has something to do with it isn't it" now i was even more terrified he's talking about me

"You've been acting different and your not concentrating with your job ever since you've been working for her or have you told her about us" his eyebrows narrow and his eyes turn red in anger.

"What no i swear I haven't told her anything" he says in a scared tone.

"Good because if i find out that she knows I'll kill you both" he points a gun at Josh's face and i can see his legs trembling

"Now get back to work and I won't be trusting you with selling drugs anymore" the man screams in Josh's face and he bumps into him on purpose along with the two other guys.

I got down from the ledge and i had to get out of here. I run out of the creepy place and i jumped into my car. I Started the engine and i drove as fast as I could and as far as possible.

In my car i try figuring out everything from what I've heard and saw. So I'm definitely sure that Josh is a drug dealer and I'm scared of how I'm going to face him but i won't go to the police because i need to hear Josh's explanation and I can't jump to conclusion without knowing the truth.
