Chapter 56


    The following day, during break period, Katherine decided to take a stroll outside as she had been


    tirelessly working since morning. She had barely stepped outside of the medical building when she saw


    a familiar figure running towards her.


    "Hey Coleem," she greeted merrily.


    "Hi... How are you?" Coleen asked gleefully.


    "I''m fine. Are you on duty?" Katherine asked.


    "Yes, but I''m on break. I guess you are on a break too?" Coleen asked.


    "Yeah, sure. I was just about to take a walk," Katherine said.


    "Them let''s take a walk together," Coleen said and Katherine agreed. As the two began to walk, Coleen


    started a conversation but his phone suddenly chirped. Looking at the screen of the phone, he saw


    Donna as the caller ID but didn''t want to answer the call before Katherine so he hung the call up.


    Before he could tuck the phone back to his pocket, Katherine spoke, "did I just see Donna as the caller


    ID on your phone?" Since both adults were walking closely, Katherine had nced briefly at his phone.


    "Donna?" Coleen pretended to be ignorant of the name she just mentioned.


    "Yeah, I saw Donna as the caller who just called you now. Plus why don''t you want to answer her call?"


    "She''s troublesome plus this Donna is my sister," he lied.


    Katherine paused walking and turned to him, "your sister?" Katherine brought out her phone and


    checked Donna''s mobile number.


    "Please let mepare this number to the ''Donna''s'' number on your phone," she said.


    "But why? It''s not the Donna you know. This Donna calling me is my sister," Coleen insisted.


    "And that''s the reason why you should simply let mepare the numbers. I''m just curious,* Katherine


    said.

    "I''m sorry, I can''t let you," he said.


    "You can''t let me? Then you are hiding something from me," Katherine said.


    "Katherine...why would you say that?" Coleen said. Katherine suddenly became suspicious of him. She


    then remembered the first time Richard kidnapped him, Charles had left him at the restaurant, saying


    he wants to ease himself. Same Charles lead her to the amunition building and made her wait there


    while he imed to have somewhere to quickly go.


    Now that she thinks about it thoroughly, she thinks highly of Charles as a suspect.


    "You are not really my friend, are you?" Katherine asked with a knowing smirk.


    "Katherine, what are you talking about? Let''s not make a big deal out of a small matter." Coleen said.


    "A small matter?" Katherine shook her head, "Marshall is right!" She mumbled. Derrick had told her a


    story of how someone suddenly got close to him only to betray him. Indeed, people who appear out of


    nowhere to suddenly befriend you may have an ulterior motive.


    "If you won''t let me see the number, our friendship will end here," Katherine said.


    "Katherine..." Coleen called. When he saw her serious face, he answered, "fine. The friendship can


    end. If that''s what you want." Then he turned in an attempt to leave.


    What if the Donna on his phone was truly different? Then she must have offended him. Katherine


    suddenly attacked him from behind and before he could turn, she had knocked him down and snatched


    the phone from him.


    Coleen stood at once and tried to snatch the phone back from her but Katherine already picked a race.


    She must never find out, Coleen thought to himself and ran after her. They were both generals and


    have a great fighting skills.


    Katherine sped as fast as her legs could take her, she won''t stop running until he lost sight of her. As


    she sped, she entered some parts where there are more of trees than houses. The houses there


    seems to be upied by lowest ranking officers.


    She suddenly used her leg to hit a small stone and fell. Coleen caught up with her at once and began


    to struggle to get the phone from her but Katherine held tight on it eventhough her backid t to the


    floor.


    "Stop!" A firm and masculine voice suddenly spoke.


    Coleen looked up and on seeing Derrick. He immediately pulled back, stood upright and saluted him.


    Katherine then stood, her cloth was now dirty but she held tightly onto the phone.


    "What''s going on?" Derrick asked.


    "Marshall, she snatched my phone from me and I''m trying to get it back," Charles reported.


    While Charles was reporting, Katherine had quickly checked the ''Donna''s'' number on his phone and


    confirmed that it was the same Donna that she knew. Katherine felt heartbroken, she felt betrayed.


    "Why won''t you give him his phone?" Derrick asked her.


    "General Coleen, forgive me. I was just ying with you, I didn''t know that you will take it personal,"


    she saluted Coleen and handed over his phone to him. With the look on her eyes, Coleen could tell that


    she had already found out.


    Coleen felt bad, he knew that Katherine would feel betrayed so he spoke, "I was also ying with you.


    I guess I was a little harsh."


    Katherine just looked at him with a painful heart and spoke, "you can leave, General Coleen. And


    please let''s avoid eachother in the future."


    "I can exin," Coleen said. He also liked Katherine and didn''t want their friendship to end like this. He


    was extremely sad and depressed when he heard that Katherine was sent to prison for setting the


    amunition house on fire. He was the one who suggested to the men investigating her case to check the


    deleted CCTV coverages. If he had known that Donna was nning to put Katherine in a big mess, he


    would not have agreed to lead Katherine to the amunition house.


    "There is nothing to exin, General Coleen. Please leave," Katherine said, she was almost at the


    verge of breaking down in tears. She liked Charles naturally but he betrayed her. This was how she


    trusted Donna in the past as her bestfriend only for her to set her up and ruin her.


    Coleen turned sadly and walked away.


    Katherine looked away and let the tears she had been holding stream down her cheek. "It takes two


    people toe close to fight." Derrick spoke, he could tell that something had hurt her but he couldn''t


    ce what exactly it was but he guessed it could be rted to Charles.


    Seeing that she was already crying, he handed over his pure white handkerchief to her. She received it


    and cleaned her tears with it.


    "Do you want me to escort you back to the medical building?" He offered.


    "No, Marshall. I''ll go myself. Thank you," Katherine then began to walk away while Derick only


    watched.
