章 87: Chapter 87: A call for police and ambulance

Joe was watching. His mistake. The noise had been loud enough to penetrate. The door was wrenched open and he fell in. Fearful for Lisa, Robert tried to catch her but by then she had seen the gun and her boyfriend standing before it.

'Why would they hurt him?' Robert managed between grunts.

'So their mother doesn't get into trouble.'

'Lisa, shut up.'

'Now what are we going to do?' Remo demanded.
