Chapter 473 - BAD NEWS

Cayenne took a deep breath and faced her brother. She needed to tell him the truth.

"Is there something wrong?" Luiz asked before Cayenne could speak. "Who were you talking to earlier? And who's going to the hospital?"

"Your teacher."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Stefan gently caressed Cayenne's palm, giving her the little push that she needed to tell her brother the horrifying news.

"I don't think it's appropriate for you and your classmates to throw a surprise party tomorrow. Your teacher…she…she was kidnapped earlier. She got molested and traumatized. I don't need to go through the details but you should be able to picture it out."

"Sis, that is not a good joke."

"Who said I'm joking? Do I look like I'm joking?"

"How did this happen? And why did you just tell me about it now?"

"I'm sorry. We're having dinner earlier and I didn't want to ruin everyone's mood with the news."

Luiz stood up from his seat and ran upstairs, back to his own room. Cayenne watched her brother left with trepidation. She knew that it was a difficult news to accept but she also knew that Luiz and his classmates deserved to know the truth, knowing how much they cared for their teacher.

Cayenne received another message from Erwin and it was the hospital's location. "Let's just visit her tomorrow. They needed so much time to adjust for now. Let's not disturb them."

"I agree with you on that. You needed to rest as well." Stefan told Cayenne and the two of them went back to their room.

Cayenne also sent a message to her brother, informing him of their plans while he was busy calling his classmates. Not all of them were awake since it was late at night but as long as few of them could get the news, it's not long for other to know about it as well.

Rissy's parents were informed about her situation and her mother, who just gained consciousness, was shocked to the core that she fainted once again. Teacher Rose, cried and cried for what happened. She was blaming herself for what has happened because she was the one who called Rissy earlier. Even though no one really blames her, she was so guilty that she couldn't stop crying.

The crime scene was flocked with reporters even though it was very far from the city. The identities of the suspects were soon discovered and their family immediately went out to find out what happened. They were all crying. They wouldn't believe that the criminals have done such thing. They claimed that they were innocent.

One of the criminals has a daughter of sixteen years old. The other man was married not long ago. As for the third criminal, he was single and was working at the convenience store to pass his time. He actually came from a prominent family.

Chris watched them being interviewed by the officers, noting down the family members of the people who molested his girlfriend. An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. He's kind to the people who are kind to him but he's very cruel to those people who hurt his people or those that he cares about.

The family of the criminals were given all the evidences, things that told them their father, or their husband, or their son, wasn't innocent after all. Everything was very detailed and many people testified to the crime, their names couldn't be saved anymore.

Soon, the public found out who the rapists were and their families suffered the wrath from the public. Many people threw trash into the yard of these families some even threw some dog poop. They were attacked by the public to the point that they didn't want to go out of their houses.

The criminal who first found Rissy, the one who worked in a convenience store where she frequently bought milk, was the son of a city councilor. Overnight, after the crime of his son was found out, all of his malicious acts and other illegal activities were exposed to the public.

It was Tristan who did that and it was Chris who told him to do so.

As for the other two families, they could wait for their demise because he was still preparing the best scene for them.

When morning came, all of Luiz's classmates found out what happened to their teacher. All of the girls cried while the boys fumed in anger. They couldn't believe such thing has happened to their teacher. It was shocking, frustrating and painful.

Luiz went along with his sister and brother-in-law to visit their teacher the next morning. As of the moment, he was like the ears and eyes of his classmates who couldn't come at the moment.

They picked up Dominic on the way to the hospital to bring him along as well.

When they arrived, they found her sleeping on a hospital bed while Chris was sitting on a chair beside her bed. His face was haggard. His eyes were dark with mixed emotions and the rim of his eyes were red. You could tell that he was crying.

"How is she?" Cayenne asked while gently patting his back to comfort him a little bit. Stefan also put his hand on Chris' shoulder.

"She hasn't woken up yet since last night. The doctor said that she's deeply traumatized with what happened. There's a light damage to her head, probably when she tried to kill herself by smashing her head on the wooden bed."

Cayenne didn't know what to say. She knew how scary it was to be abducted, specially that she was almost raped in the past. She could only imagine the pain and the trauma that Rissy has gone through. Cayenne closed her eyes and took a deep breath.  "She will be fine. She needed the support of those people she cares for. As long as we stay close and help her cope with this event, I'm sure that she'll be alright."

"I believe so." Chris responded to Cayenne with a faint smile.
