Chapter 127: 127.Sound like a psychopath.

{Champagne’s POV}

"Oh Dukey, you should have seen the look on her face when I entered. I was so, so cool!" I say with a mouth full of burger.

"I bet you were." He stretches his hand to my face and wipes only God knows what from the corner of my lips.

"I was. Really. And you know when I said, ’officers what are you waiting for, Arrest that woman!’ I felt even more cool because I’ve always secretly wanted to say that."

"Did you really say that?" He asks.

"Yes I did." I sip from my cup of cola.

"You are something else. I think you enjoyed it more than you should have." He says and bits into his own burger.

"Oh Dukey I had so much fun. I didn’t know arresting someone could be so much fun."

"Are you that happy to the point where you’re calling me Dukey?"

He asks and I shrug.

"I can’t help it. I just feel giddy today." I say. "You know what was even more exciting was the look on Rowan’s face. He looked so horrified." I say and laugh as I remember how his eyes dilated after the pillow was moved from his face.

"I’m sure he was scared out of his mind as he lay there helplessly without being able to move his body. All he could do was lay there and be suffocated and... Oh my gosh, I sound like a psychopath."

I say and Duke laughs and almost chokes on his burger. He takes the glass of water in front of him and gulps it down while still laughing.

"Are you okay? Stop laughing!" I say as he’s coughing, laughing and still drinking water at the same time.

"Oh Pagne," he says and places the glass back on the table.

"You will just be the death of me. At least you know you sound like a psychopath." He laughs and coughs even more.

"On a more serious note, was I really just laughing at the fact that someone was being suffocated? Lord have mercy on me." I say as I reflect on my actions and Duke laughs even harder.

"I married a clown." He says.

"A pretty clown I hope?" I ask and he shrugs without giving me an answer.

Uhg! What does that shrug mean?

After finishing our burgers, we pay our bill and step out of the place with me still telling Duke all about what happened at the hospital and all of Alicia’s reactions as we went on to continue our afternoon date.

...

{Alicia’s POV}

I’m behind bars! Me! Alicia Gold! The Golden girl. The girl every guy wants and every girl wants to be. I’m behind bars! I’ve never been behind bars in my life.

Oh my gosh, I feel faint. I can’t breathe well. The smell of this station is making my stomach turn.

I’ve never even stepped my feet in a police station before more or less being locked up with disgusting, smelling criminals!

These people are treating me like one of these criminals.

This isn’t right! I can’t accept this kind of treatment.

"Let me out!!" I scream and bang on the bars of steel holding me back. "Ahhhhh!!" I scream even louder while shaking the bars.

"Let me out of here now! Do you have any idea who I am?!"

I’m screaming my lungs out but they’re all just going about their business like they have gone deaf. Like they can’t hear me.

It’s like I’ve become invisible. No one is answering me and no one is looking at me.

I don’t know this feeling. I’ve never been in a situation where people don’t pay me attention. Wherever I went all eyes were always on me. Everyone loved me, everyone wanted to listen to me no matter what it was I was saying.

They always gave me attention so how? Why? Why is nobody listening to me now?

"I am Alicia! Alicia Gold! Do you know who my mother is?! Do you know what my mother will do to you all when she finds out you arrested her only child?!"

Mom, she must be on her way right now, right?

"She will shut this entire place down! Let me out. Ahhhhh!! Let me OUT!!" With every scream, I bang the bars like my life depends on it.

"Shut the fuck up!!" something come flying at me, hitting my head. I stare at the ground where the thing that hit my head falls and it’s a plastic fork.

I look at the idiot who just threw that at me and I stutter the words in disbelief, "W_what do you think you’re doing?"

"Where the fuck do you think you are to be screaming like a mad bitch?" A woman, who looks like she’d weigh a little over 250 pounds says. This obese creature was the one that had the audacity to throw something at me?!

"One more scream out of that rich lips of yours and I will slap the richness out of it! You get that?!" Hah! The effrontery to even talk to me is baffling.

"How_how dare you!" I face her with glaring eyes. "How dare you, a mere nobody who isn’t even worthy of being one of the cleaners in my house, talk rubbish to me?!"

Can you imagine the audacity of this thing?!

"How dare you even breathe the same air as me? Do you think I’m going to be here for a long time? Do you think because I’m here with you that I am one of you?"

The fact that she thinks she can talk to me and throw stuff at me means that she must believe I’m in her league. Can you imagine that?!

"Think again you bitch, I am way above you. So shut up and sit back down you filthy obese street trash!" I yell.

"Okay, I think this bitch needs some sense knocked into her." She says.

Does this thing think I’m scared?

"Girls, teach that bitch why it’s good to shut up when told to." She says to the other two lanky girls standing next to her. They look like they don’t even know what good food tastes like.

"Come on!" I say. "Come on I will—"

"Quiet down all of you!!" A female officer suddenly yells from her desk. "Or I will come in there and not only beat the shit out of you but also cuff your legs and hands to those bars! So just shut up and sit down!" She orders in a stern voice.

"I said sit down!" She says one more time and I sit on the bench beside me and those idiots remain where they are.

I can’t stay here much longer. I might go insane if I do!

"What is going on here?!" I hear a familiar voice and I instantly rise to my feet again disregarding the order of the officer just a moment ago.

"What is the meaning of this? Why has my daughter been arrested?"

"Mom!" I scream as she comes into view. "Mom it was all that bitches fault! That idiot Champagne she set me up! She set me up, mom. She’s the one who put me in here, that filthy girl! She—"

"Alicia! Shut your mouth!!"

"Mom,"

"I’ll do everything to get you out of here so just keep quiet."

"Officers, I think there must be a mistake somewhere. Please, give me a detailed explanation of what my child is doing behind bars amongst those hideous looking beings."

"What did you call us, you crazy bitch?! Get over here! Get over here and—" the obese being is screaming.

"For Pete’s sake Naomi, shut up!" The Female officer yells again.

"Mrs Evelyn Gold," Some people walk up to mom.

She stares at them and replies, "That is me."

"Well you just saved us the stress of going to your house by coming here."

"What do you mean? You were the ones who called me down here regarding my child of course I would come."

"Oh no, we are not here regarding your daughter Miss Alicia Gold. We are here for you Mrs Gold." What do they mean?

"What? What do you mean?" Mom asks.

"I mean, we have a warrant of arrest for you Mrs Gold," The man in front pulls out a piece of paper and flashes it in front of mom’s face.

"You’ve been charged with tax evasion, money laundering, blackmailing, the unlawful alteration of the will of your late father, the—" the man pauses, "Well, it’s quite a long list and we will read it to you later in the interrogation room. But the fact of the matter is we were heading to your house to arrest you when we got informed that you were right here in our station. So thank you Mrs Gold for saving us the trip. And now... Mrs Evelyn Gold, you are under arrest for your many crimes against the state, against your father and some other things my subordinates will read to you later. You have the right to an attorney. If you don’t have one the state will provide one for you. You have that right to remain silent till your attorney arrives and—"

This can’t be happening.

What exactly is even happening right now?!!
