Thanks for the reviews! I know I say that every time but I do appreciate them! It helps me write more. As I'm writing this chapter I am burnt as a crisp. I went swimming yesterday and came back home as a lobster. So it's uncomfortable as I write but at least my fingers didn't get red to keep me from writing!
Chuck waited impatiently at the police station, drumming his fingers on a cluttered desk.
"Mr. Bass, I'm sorry to keep you waiting," The Detective said sitting down at his desk. "I didn't know you were stopping by today."
"That makes two of us," He said leaning forward. "I want to know why you haven't caught the person who shot me yet."
"I have been up to my head in homicide cases. I haven't forgotten about your case believe me. I've interviewed all the witnesses. No one saw anything."
"One of them is lying. They had to see someone with a fucking gun pointed at me! You must know what it's like to be shot at."
The Detective grabbed a sheet of paper and a pen setting it in front of Chuck.
"I want you to write down all the names of people whom might want you dead. The person that shot you didn't have to be in the crowd that day. It might be someone that you haven't seen for a long time."
"My Uncle Jack," He said.
OOOOOOOOOO
Bart's day was just getting worse and worse. It was officially shot to hell when Jack showed up unannounced.
"Jack, I don't have time for your games," Bart said sitting at his desk.
Jack tried to fake being hurt. "I'm shocked big brother. I mean I found out that my nephew was shot and I have to have a reason for visiting?"
Bart looked at him like he was stupid. "Because you don't visit, unless you want something. What the hell is it this time? More money?"
Jack hard a smirk on his face. "I was just wondering when you were going to tell me that I was going to be a Great Uncle."
"I don't know what your talking about."
"Cut the crap, Bart. I know what Chuck did to that girl. Do you think the CEO of Bass Industries is going to want Chuck running it after what he did?"
Bart stood up and got in Jack's face. "You are not getting my business. I'll kill you first."
"Funny I was going to say the same thing to you," Jack said walking out.
OOOOOOOOO
IF you all thought Chuck was bad
You don't know Jack
OOOOOO
Chuck dialed Jenny's number outside the police station.
"Hello?"
"I have to see you."
He heard her hesitate. "I can't see you," She said.
"This is the matter of life and death. Something might happen to you or our child."
"What are you talking about?"
"Just meet me at my father's office. I'll explain everything. I promise."
"Does this have to do with whoever shot you?"
"Yes," He said hanging up.
OOOOOOOOOO
Jenny stared at her phone before grabbing her purse and walking into the living room.
"Dad, I'm going to go out for awhile.'
"You okay?"
"Yeah," She said lying. "Why?"
"Your acting like something's wrong."
"Nothing's wrong. I've just got craving for some ice cream," She said hated lying to him.
"Do you want me to go with you?"
"I'm good, dad. Just need to be by myself for awhile," She said with a smile.
"Be careful.'
"I will," She said leaving.
OOOOOOOOOOOO
Dorota was dusting when someone got off the elevator.
"Dorota, lovely to see you again," The man said with a smile.
Dorota didn't smile back. She never liked the man. "I will tell Miss Blair that you are here."
"You don't have to. She's expecting me," He said walking to Blair's room.
"Not looking good, Miss Blair," Dorota said to herself and continued dusting.
OOOOOOO
Blair had just gotten out of the shower and wrapped a towel around her. She nearly screamed when she saw someone on her bed.
"What the hell are you doing here," She demanded hair dripping wet. "Don't you ever knock?"
The man stood up and walked over to her. "Blair, you know I don't follow rules," The man said kissing her neck.
She took a step back. "Is your presence known, Jack?"
He smiled evil. "Just got done paying a visit to big brother," He said kissing her again.
She grunted as he kissed harder. "Does he know that you know?"
"Absolutely," He answered.
"So, when are you going to get rid of Chuck?"
Jack pulled away from her. "Blair, you know how I work. I start from the bottom and work my way up so I'm not suspicious; where as you always go straight for the kill."
"Speaking of kill, did you find Georgina?"
"She already disappeared."
"Jack, we can't let things fall apart. Not this time."
"It won't. Trust me."
OOOOOOOOOOOO
Chuck walked in Bart's office.
"Dad we have to talk-"He stopped when he saw his father lying face flat on the ground behind his desk. "Dad," Chuck said running behind the desk turning Bart over. "I NEED HELP!"
Just then Jenny walked in the office and gasped at what she saw.
"Chuck, what happened?"
"Call an ambulance!" He yelled.
Jenny pulled out her cell but knew it would do any good. Bart looked like he had been dead for awhile.
OOOOOOOOOOOOO
Jenny was back at the hospital waiting room actually sitting next to Chuck. She didn't know why she was there sitting next to the person that rapped her. Maybe because it was how vulnerable Chuck looked; like he was a scared little boy.
"You don't have to be here," Chuck said looking at the ground.
"Your father died. I can't just leave you alone."
He looked at her with bloodshot eyes. "I think I know who killed him."
She licked her lips. "The same person that shot you," She asked.
"It was my uncle Jack. I know it was."
"Why would he kill you?"
"So he could get my father's company. He knew that my father was going to leave me in charge if anything happened to Bart and Jack hated him for it. If he knows that your pregnant with my child, he'll go after you two to get what he wants."
"I don't understand what my baby has to do with it."
"The next heir to Bass Industries," He said. "As long as Jack's in back of the line he won't stop."
Just then Lily walked over to Chuck and hugged him.
"Chuck, I'm so sorry," She said with tears in her eyes.
Chuck didn't say anything.
He vowed to make Jack pay.
Author's Note: I don't expect a lot of reviews for this chapter. As I said at the beginning of the story it hurts so I couldn't write longer.
