Scarlet's POV"And look who we have here?" My eyes landed on Evelyn walking up to my side. I wasn't surprised to run into her here."How may I be of help to my stepsister, or does she miss her father's restaurant so much that she came back running?

But I couldn't let go of what I had just learned from the detective—she had plotted my parents' death. I needed answers as to why she did that.

"I am happy to see you are..." His voice trailed off as I could only wonder why, only to remember my half-beaten state."What happened, boss? Don't tell me they got to you also," Darius questioned."Just tell me, Darius. Who are these people, and what do they want with us? Why are they doing this, and mostly, I want to know who their boss is," I questioned, hoping to get straight to the point."I wish to know as well, boss," Darius replied simply, as his words left a stun."What do you mean, you don't know who they are?" I asked, my brow furrowed. "No, boss.""What do you mean, Darius? You
A Billion Reasons for Revenge A Sister's Secret
"How much do you know about your sister?" he questioned.My eyes narrowed, and I felt a slight twitch in my jaw. "Stepsister," I corrected, my tone crisp.Really, I cared less about what she was up to. Why would I? But given all that had been occurring lately, I had no choice but to dig in and find out what she was plotting. He had called me up here, claiming to give me some information, but instead, he was here asking me these silly questions."Get to the point. I thought you were the one blubbering about not liking to waste time. Just tell me what you called me here for. Have you found out some new information regarding Evelyn?" I questioned, looking at the relaxed presence of him as he rested his back against the chair, leaning with his eyes glaring. All he left was a silent response."Well, after digging further and trying to patch up your stepsister's dealing with the guy charged with assault, I learned he carried out a job for her.""A job?

I left the room after, walking down the stairs, and then my eyes caught sight of the maid."Did Sebastian leave the house?" I questioned, and she nodded yes.Really, he had left the mansion. Could anything be so important for him to leave in such a condition? I could only hope he wasn't another thing I would end up getting involved in.He had returned home with bruises today. A part of me wanted to ask questions, but why bother when, in the end, he would cut me off as usual?I had no choice but to treat his wounds because of the frantic state his mother was in after seeing his condition. I had to make sure he was alright, but he wouldn't allow her to come any closer.Today was the weekend, a day I hoped to spend in utmost relaxation, just trying to calm my mind of everything, but new problems seemed to be arising.

I rushed into my room, my hands grasping onto my phone as I dialed up Darius's number, which persisted in ringing for a while before he finally picked up."Boss, are you alright, boss?" I heard his voice come through, a tensed and scared tone that my ears could grasp."What's happening, Darius? I just saw the news now?" I questioned, totally confused as to what was taking place. First, I was kidnapped by some men who I had little idea about, claiming their boss sent them, and now this news also of my men dead."I can't discuss it all on the phone, boss," he said.Something was fishy, just as I had suspected, and it seemed Darius knew more about this than I did.

My eyes flickered as they sprang open, gazing at my constrained state. My hands were tied against a chair as I found myself in an unfamiliar building. I had no idea where I was."Seems you're awake," a voice caught my attention, and I turned to see the same guy who had attacked me at the club approaching, bending a little."How are you feeling there?" he mocked. Really, I wanted to rip his jaws out, but damn, I was tied up. Whoever they thought they were, how dare they kidnap me and tie me down?"If you want money, then say it," I said, my gaze fixed on him, hoping to negotiate my way out of this. Once I was finally free from their grip, I would make them all pay and hunt them down. They dared hit me; I would make them beg for their lives."You still don't get what's going on yet, do you?" he uttered, as my eyes narrowed with my brow raising. "What are you saying? You don't have to beat around the bush. Just name the amount you want, and let's get this over with.""I don't need your m
