Chapter 186 - Mind Palace Part 2
Andromeda is a little tired from their shopping, so she rested and let him work with few papers. She sat down and closed her eyes as she recalled the dream that she saw. It's all about Fin and Selina. She thought about the dream that Fin had.
Now, she had thought. Maybe Fin got the exact story and she got the meaning of it for the person when that incident happened. She knows how hard it will be for Fin. He would think that he killed her. The worst-case scenario will be next. He will lose himself and he might kill himself. That's what her dream is all about.
Because after he killed her, he pulled the gun and pointed it to his head, and she had woken up from that vision.
She entered her mind palace and thought about the first vision she got, the Audi incident and the Madagascar incident and others. Now, this… everything that she dreamed has a meaning and now, she should get ready for war and get rid of Nicholas to lessen everything.
She contacted her facility where they had Seth to check on him. They need him to be the main witness. She also filed lots of charges for him. Now, she filed another. The police are on their way to catch him. She imagined how he stalked Ellen, thinking about how to kill her.
***
It was already dark, and Ellen has been waiting for her lover. He arrived in a BMW SUV and in his executive outfit. She stood from her seat and strode to the door as one of her bodyguards open the door for her. She smiled at him and she glanced at Nicholas a few meters away from them.
He put a hand at the small of her back and then lead her to the car. She gets inside and Andel stayed as he looked at him and the police take him with a warrant. They picked him up. Ellen opened the window shield and looked up at him.
"It's fine now.
" He patted her head.
"Close the window.
" He did and walked around to the driver's seat.
He sat down and looked at her. He reached the seat belt and buckle it.
"No kisses?
" She pouted at him. He smiled and smack her lips.
"Just that?
"
"Yeah. I'll give you kisses later.
" He patted her head and then he turned on the engine.
He stepped on the gas and as the car run, Ellen reached his thigh and just place her hand there. He uses one hand to control the steering wheel and intertwined his hand with her. He kissed the back of her hand.
"So, what dinner?
" He asked.
"Do you want me to cook for you?
" She asked.
"Let's just eat outside. I don't want you to get tired.
" He kissed her hand and continue driving.
"When we get married, I wanted to have our honeymoon somewhere… away from people. Maybe a place by just two of us.
"
"Island.
" He winked.
"Can you survive?
" He asked.
"I can survive anywhere with you.
"
"Good. Because I already have plans.
"
She exhaled and stared at the driveway.
"What's happening there? How is he out from jail and why did the police pick him?
"
"He got bailed out and andromeda filed a strong case of murder.
"
"Wow.
" Her eyes widen.
"Really?
"
"Yes, the real Seth has been locked up in the basement and killed his girlfriend.
"
Ellen becomes silent and she shuddered. He squeezed her hand and kissed it.
"Don't worry my kitten, I am here, and I will do everything to protect you.
"
"Thank you, my big bear.
"

Zach visited his wife in her room and since she's meditating, he let her. He just kissed her forehead and left. It will be Christmas soon and he needed to pick up and send few gifts in Mondragon Mansion. He left a note and then he drove his car all the way to the mansion. He first dropped his gifts for his parents and then to his siblings then he drove to Dragon Mansion.
The Fake Fiona greeted him, and he nodded at her. Aaron wasn't home at all and she just said that he's going to be late. But he knew the real reason. Aaron is with his real wife. He put the gifts under the gigantic Christmas tree and then he greeted the old man.
"Where's your wife?
" he asked.
"She's busy with her mind palace. I just came to drop off the gifts, then I need to go back to my wife.
"
"Okay. Careful on your way.
" The old man told.
"I will grandpa.
"
He jogged outside and entered his car. He turned on the engine and it suddenly stopped working. He got out and two guards came over. He checked the engine and then his phone rang.
"Hey, baby.
" He muttered.
"Where are you?
"
"I'm at your parent's house. I just dropped the gifts. I will be there soon, there's a little problem with my car.
"
"Okay.
"
"I'll be with you.
"
"Just come home.
"
"Yes, ma'am.
" He hung up and then glanced at the garaged. Andy probably has other cars here, somewhere.

The alarms are wailing as the police started running everywhere with their guns. Nicholas hides carefully, his clothes have lots of blood and the only thing he had in mind is to kill. He escaped the station by settling a fire. How did he do it?
He just excused himself that he's not feeling well and since the clinic is just closed to the kitchen, he set it on fire by using oil and whatever flammable there is. He even kills the nurse and three guards.
He calls Kathleen and she came to pick him up. She frowned at him and let him in. She brought him to his old house and let him change clothes. She gave him everything he needed. A rented car and money, even a fake passport.
"I need to go. Merry Christmas.
" She told him. He didn't say anything at all.
Kathleen left and went away.
Nicholas took a long bath as he thought about how to kill Zachary to end his suffering. He needed to kill him. He already set it on his mind and once that he set it, he would do everything to kill the target in his mind. His mind is like a sniper. He needed to kill him.
He went to the sink and put the stolen wedding photo of Zachary and Andromeda. He caressed the woman of his dreams in that picture and then he frowned at the man that ruined everything. He ripped the picture and kept Andromeda's. He put his blank pants on and then his black shirt and black coat together with his black baseball cap.
He reached his gun and fill the magazine with six bullets. He drove directly to the Mondragon Subdivision and exactly, he saw Zachary's car entering the subdivision. He waited patiently and a blue Audi appeared, and the driver scrolled down the window shield and waved at the guard. It's him.
He followed the car. He needed to kill him. He will do everything to kill him.

Andromeda reached the glass of water. She felt a little dizzy after that thinking. She drank on the glass and she suddenly stopped when she saw a loud crashing. A car intently hit her Audi until it loose control.
A pulling of the gun and her husband inside the car. The man pulled the trigger and as the rear mirror shattered, the glass that she's holding fell on the floor and it shattered as well.
