Chapter 21

Red's POV

"Red? Red, can you hear me? RED?" I hear coming from the phone. I slowly sit up, but my head hurts. I put my hand on my head.

"I'm here Wendy..." I reply weakly.

"What happened?"

"I got hit by a car..." I try to stand up, but something doesn't feel right. My body is in so much pain right now, but something really is off.

"Miss?" I look and see a man approaching me. "Are you ok? That car came out of nowhere."

"I don't know..." I start to tear up.

"What's wrong?" Wendy asks.

"I think I'm bleeding! My baby!" I put my hands on my stomach.

"I'll get you to the hospital." The man offers.

"Thank you."

"I'll meet you there!" Wendy tells me before hanging up.

Kenny's POV

My alarm goes off and I head into Sadie's room to wake her, but she's not there. She must be in the bathroom. I head to Johnny's room and he isn't there either. I look around the house and don't see either of them.

"Sadie? Johnny?" I call out. No answer. I start to panic and I grab the phone. "Hello police, I would like to report two missing children..."

Red's POV

I'm at the hospital freaking out. I found out that I have a concussion and possibly a broken leg. I'm also feeling pain in my stomach and I'm worried about my baby. Wendy is here holding my hand trying to keep me calm. "It's going to be fine." She tells me.

"I don't know. My stomach really hurts and I can feel blood still dripping." I cry.

"Hopefully you'll see a doctor soon."

"I hope so!"

"So you have no idea who hit you?"

I shake my head. "I didn't get a good look at them or the car."

"Hopefully the police can find something. This is a serious crime."

Just then, the doctor comes in. "Good morning Ms. Jones, sorry to keep you waiting. I'm going to examine you."

"Is my baby ok?"

"That's what I'm going to find out." She performs the exam. "There's no bleeding."

"That's impossible! I felt something."

She nods. "What you felt was your water breaking. We're going to have to perform an emergency cesarean section."

I cry even harder. "Now? It's too soon!"

"Your life is at risk too, I don't have a choice."

"I don't care about me! Just save my baby!"

"Red calm down!" Wendy steps in. "The doctor is going to do everything she can to save you and your baby!"

"That's right. I need to get you prepped for surgery." She looks at Wendy. "You're going to have to go the waiting room."

"Don't worry Red, I'll be here as soon as you get out of surgery." Wendy tells me as she squeezes my hand.

"I'm so nervous." I tell her.

"It's going to be fine. It's the best option for you and the baby." She smiles. She may think it's going to be fine, but I have every reason to worry. I'm only 20 weeks pregnant, so the chance of survival is very low. I just hope they can save my baby.

Kenny's POV

I still haven't been able to find the kids. I've called the police to file a missing person's report, but they have to be missing for 48 hours. I'm not waiting that long. I've called Tammy, Craig, Tammy's parents, hell even my parents, Karen, Stan, and Kyle. No one has seen them.

My phone rings and I see it's Wendy. "Wendy?" I answer. "Have you seen Sadie and Johnny?"

"No, but I'm calling-"

I immediately cut her off. If it's not about my kids, I really don't have time for it. "I woke up and they were missing! I don't know where they are. Johnny has the flu and shouldn't be out."

"Did you call the police?"

"Yes, but they have to be missing for 48 hours."

"I'm sorry and I hope you find them soon. However, Red needs you."

"Whatever it is, it's going to have to wait. I need to find my kids!"

Wendy sighs. "Look, I'm sorry about Sadie and Johnny and I hope they're returned to you safe and sound. But you need to be there for Red."

"What's going on with Red that is more important than finding my kids?"

"She got hit by a car last night. She's getting ready to have an emergency c-section!"

My eyes widen. "You're kidding!"

"No I'm not. She just went into surgery and I think you should be here. Your child will be here any minute."

"Of course, I'll be right there..." I hang up. Wow, now that wasn't what I was expecting to hear. I've let this kid down so far, the least I can do is be there for the birth. I just hope Red and the baby will be ok.

Tammy's POV

"HELP ME!" Sadie screams in the airport as I quickly cover her mouth. Craig and I are at the airport with all four kids. I'm in a disguise so hopefully no one recognizes me, but Sadie might ruin everything. She just woke up and realized what was happening and decided to be a drama queen.

"Be quiet, you little brat!" I yell at her.

"I want to go home!"

"You are! You're going to your new home in Paris! You and Johnny will love it there!" I smile.

"I want to stay with daddy!"

I shake my head. "That's not an option!"

"Then I'm not getting on the plane!" Sadie folds her arms.

"Now what?" I whisper to Craig.

"You're going to have to drag her kicking and screaming." He shrugs.

"No way! She'll draw too much attention to us!"

"Do you have any other suggestions?"

I look at Sadie then back at Craig. "I guess not." I walk over to Sadie and grab her arm. "Let's go!"

"I told you, I'm not going! I'm calling daddy!" She pulls out her phone, but I grab it and throw it down and step on it. "I can't believe you did that!"

"Now let's go! Stop fighting it! You're going to love Paris!"

"I'm not getting on that plane!"

"Oh yes you are!" I yank her arm.

"Let me go!"

Craig steps in between us. "Let me handle this." He looks at Sadie. "Don't worry, everything is going to be fine."

"I don't want to go to Paris with you guys, I want to stay here with my daddy!" She begins to cry.

"Everything will work out, I promise."

"What does that mean?" I ask him.

"Just trust me."

I shake my head. "We don't have time for this, we have a plane to catch!" I pull out our passports and head to the gate and notice two security guards standing there. "Is the plane to Paris boarding yet?" I ask them?"

"May I see your passports?" One of the security guards asks.

I look at Craig, then back at them. "Sure," I hand them the passports, "here's mine and the kids. My husband has his." I notice that they take a long time looking at one of the passports then I notice them whispering to each other. "Is something wrong?"

"Mrs. Tucker, we can't let you get on this plane."

I raise my eyebrow. "Why not?"

"Because you're not really Toni Tucker." He takes off my glasses and wig. "You're Tammy McCormick and you're under arrest!"

"Under arrest for what?" I smile. "Besides, you can't arrest me, you're just some low budget security guard!"

They hold up badges. Oh shit, they're cops! "You're under arrest for attempting to flee the country, attempted kidnapping, and attempted murder."

My jaw drops. "I live in Paris, I was just here visiting."

"You still have a trial to attend for your case of fraud, you're not supposed to leave town much less the country."

"Well as far as kidnapping and attempted murder go, that's not true. These are my kids and I didn't try to kill anyone!"

"Did you clear it with their father that has custody? If not, that's kidnapping. You attempted to murder Red Jones."

"I did no such thing!" I look at Craig. "Can't you do something?"

He shakes his head. "It's over Tammy…"

I'm taken aback. "What do you mean?"

"Since we've been here, you refused to divorce Kenny. You obviously wanted to remain married to him. Not only that, you were having an affair with Clyde."

I shake my head. "No I didn't! Clyde was my lawyer."

"He was also helping support you financially all these years. I didn't want to believe it at first, but once he told me everything, I had to face reality."

I laugh. "He told you that and you believed him?"

"You don't think I was already suspicious of your secret phone calls and secretly sneaking out of the house? You tried to do something to Red last night, but I thwarted that plan so you set her up to get hit by a car."

My eyes widen. "None of that is true and you can't prove that!"

The cop puts me in handcuffs. "Don't worry, the station will prove that."

I look at Craig. "What about my kids?"

"I'm taking Maddie and CJ back to Paris with me. Sadie and Johnny will continue to live with Kenny. He deserves these kids more than you do."

I frown. "You don't even like Kenny!"

"I still think he's the better parent. I'll let him know the good news."

I look at the cops. "You know he's not completely innocent either."

"Mr. Tucker already told the police his role in the fraud case. He made a deal to be let go if he helped us catch you."

My jaw drops. "You set me up? I can't believe you!"

"You'll think about that the next time you try to play me for a fool! Enjoy prison!" Craig winks.

"NO!" I scream as I'm taken away by the police. I swear he won't get away with this!
