Burn Those Who Burned Me novel Chapter 215

Chapter 215

After everything died down in the foyer, everyone went their separate ways. Laura went directly to her room. The image of Josie was still burning in her mind. She didn’t look angry…she looked… broken. Like all of the spirit had been ripped out of her. Was this the right thing to do? At the time, she was so desperate for Vanessa not to go to jail that she would have agreed to anything. But what she ultimately agreed to was destroying one daughter for another.

Christian immediately went to his study to retrieve the documents his assistant sent. As soon as he opened the file, his face turned ghostly white.

His assistant had sent him a detailed report of everything that Josie had been through…and to his horror…it was worse than he could have imagined. Inside, the report detailed multiple trips to the infirmary, multiple beatings by inmates and guards…there was one in particular that kept popping up…Officer Tillman. The report showed she was forced into solitude multiple times; malnourished, sleep deprived. But the worse was the final part of the infirmary report.

The nurse suspected long–term sexual abuse. She believed the inmate was too scared to speak about it. Josie was brought into the ICU of the infirmary for excessive bleeding consistent with a miscarriage. When the assualt kit was performed, it showed she had multiple tearing consisted with

forcible sex or rape.

Christian’s hands began to shake….as he stared at the screen, all that kept coming to mind was the list of demands she requested in exchange for taking the fall.

1. Put money on my books. (So that I can take care of myself)
2. Visit at least twice a month so that others would know who my family was. (it’s for my protection. Others won’t bother me if they know I’m a Taylor)
3. Take care of my grandmother. (The reason I’m doing this)

She’d only asked for three small favors, and they couldn’t even honor one. The blood began to rush to his brain…was THIS worth it? Had sacrificing Josie for Vanessa been the right choice? After all, Vanessa was the one that hit and killed that person and did little to stay out of trouble after.

Shouldn’t she had paid for her crime? They would have taken care of her the right way had she gone to jail! Why did they make Josie suffer like this.

The anger began to fume over. Whoever was responsible would pay! Christian stormed into his father’s study and slammed the papers down on his desk.

Chapter 215

“What’s thi-”

Harlod froze mid–sentence as he red the report. His eyes began to swell as tears overflowed. He had no idea she went through this. No wonder she was spazzing out. Harlod began to crumble the paper.

“I want to know who the asholes were that did this to her. I want their fucking heads!!! Immediately!!!”

Chrisitan looked at his father in agreement.

“Um…are we going to tell mom?”

Harold’s eyes shot up at his son.

“No!!! If she found this out it would kill her. She’s already been battling with what we did…if she saw

this…”

Christian nodded in agreement. It was true, out of everyone she took sending Josie to prison in Vanessa’s stead the hardest. Something like this would kill her.

Josie made her way over to her probation officer’s office.

“Ms. Taylor, your PO will see you now.”

Josie’s PO was a woman named Geogia West. Although she was in her mid–forties, she had a strikingly beautiful and youthful face. Josie had only met her twice so far, but she seemed like a genuinely decent person. Hopefully she would honor her request.

“Ms. Taylor. What I can do for you today?”

“Thank you for seeing me at such short notice Officer West. I wanted to know…if it’s possible for me to please switch my home address.”

Geogia West looked up at Josie. She wasn’t expecting that.

“Well it’s not usually recommended. We prefer you to be stable while on probation. Not to mention, you only have 90 days…you don’t think you can-”

“It’s not safe environment for me.”

“Not a safe…aren’t you Harold and Laura Taylor’s daughter? They’re one of the most prominent people in this state.”

Chapter 215

fosse knew this wasn’t going to be exactly easy; still, she couldn’t give up.

“Officer West..*

You can call me Georgia.”

“Georgia. According to my file…I have a severe drinking problem. My concern is if I stay with that family…something bad will happen. Besides…they denounced me four years ago, so it’s just really stressful. I don’t think it’s healthy for someone who is supposed to have a drinking problem.”

Georgia stared at Josie with a complex expression. It wasn’t that she didn’t understand, in fact she understood very well how families can oftentimes force a person to relapse. What she found interesting is how Josie kept saying ‘on her file she listed as an alcoholic.‘ Why phrase it like that? Why not just say she’s an alcoholic or has a drinking problem. It was like she was trying to purposely disassociate herself from being an alcoholic.

“Do you have an address you would be able to transfer too?”

Josie instantly perked up!

“Yes!! It’s actually with my cousin! His name is Marlon Bowen, and he’s a bioengineer! He’ll make sure I go to my therapy sessions and stay out of trouble I swear!”

Georgia looked at the desperation on her face. Something was definitely going on that she was

missing.

“Alright. I’ll approve your transfer. You can leave as soon as today. Let me know once you’re on the premises and we’ll still meet once a week.”

Josie was beyond elated! She could finally get out of that house for good!

“Oh my gosh!!! Ms. Georgia!! Thank you so much!! This is literally some the best news I’ve had in a long

time!”

“Glad I could help. Hurry on out of here, your first appointment with your therapist is today right?”

Josie smiled brightly while nodding her head.

“Yes ma’am! I’m headed there now!”

Georgia couldn’t help but smile, this girl was really happy to get out of that house!

“Hey Josie.”

Josie spun around immediately.

“Just remember…whatever you talk to your therapist about is between the two of you. So don’t be afraid

to let loose.”

Josie smiled and waved goodbye. As soon as she was finished with therapy, she would get her belongings from that house.

Back at the Taylor estate; Christian received a notification from the department of corrections.

[This message is for the listed responsible party of Josie Taylor:

As of 05/13/2025 The responsible parties listed as Christian and Harold Taylor have now been terminated. The recently released will no longer be housed at 9406 Roosevelt Court Way. New address has been update by the releasee’s probation officer Georgia West.]

Chrisitan could hardly believe what he just read. She actually went and changed her address!!! To where!! And more importantly, who was her new responsible party??? Christian could feel a storm brewing and it gave him an uneasy feeling. A feeling that told him maybe this was just the beginning for Josie.
