In all his life, Ansel had been to many places and even he had visited the slums once when they were building their charity

hospital but he had never thought that he would step inside one of the houses.

He didn't have a reason at all to and it would all have seemed far fetched.

He looked at the person who made him do all this and smiled.

Looking at Denise cooking was the best sight he had ever laid his eyes upon.

He loved that she was cooking for him. She looked like a veteran in there and he had to ask.

"You look like you know what you are doing," he commented and she looked at him with a smile.

"Yes I do. The other day you cut me short before I could tell you the rest of the story. After my grandfather died and I guess my

uncle decided I was big enough and his wife fired yet another worker, I had a lot more to do.

    He looked at them all and gave a curt nod. He had been with some of them since he moved here and these people were like an extended family to him and they had given him enough reasons to trust them."Thank you for leaving whatever you were doing and gathering here in such a short notice.

    Denise looked at Mandy and wondered why and where all the hatred came from. She didn't know the other woman and she really didn't think that even if it was a grudge because of taking Ansel or humiliating her the other day, it warranted her asking her people to kill her."Why do you hate me so much first of all? Do we know each other from somewhere?" Denise asked Mandy because she thought all this crazy.How can one hate someone else out of their own delusions? It wasn't normal. But she needed to hear it from Mandy herself because maybe she had a reason."Do I have any reason to hate you? You took my man away from me. Isn't that reason enough? I hate your very guts!" Mandy said through gritted teeth but Denise just looked at her with pity in her eyes. Really? Did Mandy just call Ansel her man?"Has Ansel ever told you that he loves you or has he ever given you any reason to believe that he does? Has he ever behaved in a way to suggest that he mightwant you?" Denise asked her again,

She loved Ansel and she was ready to fight for him… literally.She sat on the couch again but her heart was still aching. Every time she would look at the bag that had been holding the food she had bought for Ansel and then think of how these fools had eaten it, she would feel so bad that she would feel better after beating them again.This time, even the guy who had been shot was no exception. They were beaten so badly that they could not speak well because their lips were the sizes of sausages.On the other side of the town, Ansel was going mad as his people tried tracking that taxi

    These men regretted underestimating Denise and taking her nonchalance as fear and helplessness. If they had known that she could handle a gun and she knew how to fight, they would have recruited more men or even dealt with her more ruthlessly and without delay. They sat on the floor in a line like obedient school children and faced her. She then sat back on the couch and bent her back a little, parted her legs and placed her elbows on her knees and looked at them the way one would look at children. She was like a mother teaching her children how to be good boys. She was dangling the gun before them and they seemed visibly scared until one decided to be brave. "Do you even know how to use that thing? Stop pretending! Our young miss told us that you are a nobody. So, stop pretending to be brave. Why don't we fight and see what you can do?" He said and she smiled at that. An eerily scary smile that had him regretting why he said that. "Okay," she said just that and pulled the tri

    "So, you guys want to tell me who sent you?" She asked them, looking all nonchalant and they laughed.She looked at them like fools and made herself comfortable at that dusty couch. She even placed one leg on top of the other on the knee and looked all bossy. She didn't look like she was the kidnapee at all."Yeah, we will tell you once we deal with you. Our boss told us to do with you whatever we would and she would come to finish you. Don't worry, we threw your phone away and no one would be able to locate you. So, it's just you and us. You can stop pretending to be all brave. But don't worry, we love breaking the hard ones," one said and he touched his lower lip with his thumb seductively, maybe thinking about how he was going to deal with her."Our boss should have told us you are this beautiful.
