Chapter 22 Grandmother...!

last update Last Updated: 2024-11-15 21:04:52

Author's point of view....

"Hand over the money."

"What?" Logan, strong in appearance but weak inside, was stunned. He kept glancing at the sky, trying to figure out where she had come from.

"The money. You just extorted $15,000. Give it back." Thea’s gaze was cold and piercing.

She was far more intimidating than a muscle-bound thug.

"Are you trying to rob me? I’m calling the police." Logan tried to regain his composure. He didn't recognize the girl at all. Even though he was afraid, he wasn’t about to hand over his ill-gotten gains, especially not to a girl. He gathered his courage, "You think you can rob me? You are just a girl..."

Thea didn’t waste time responding. She landed a punch to Logan’s temple, sending him crashing to the ground, dust flying.

"You..." Logan’s men were frozen in shock. A few aimed their knives at Thea while the others raised their fists, but no one moved.

They were street thugs, not fighters. Their strength was in scaring people. Faced with som

    Author's point of view... The group of thugs fled as quickly as they could. Logan had never witnessed such ruthlessness, especially coming from a girl. He was ashamed and more than that, he was still in a shock. They had been thugs for so many years and he never once encounterd such a strong person with such tiny body. He felt as though he was facing a war lord not a sixteen year old girl. But wait...! Isn't she the strongest monster in that magical land? Of course, she can easily hit his ass. Thea walked out and slowly stood behind her parents, looking at the trembling man with all bruises on his face. She smiled coldly and Logan felt shivers all over his body. Logan didn't dare look up at her. He rushed away as he still needed to get his injured men to the hospital. Even while walking away, he didn’t dare to look back. His only instinct was to escape from that very place as fast as he could. "He's really odd," Diana said while closing the door behind her. Looking at the

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 24 Thea's past...!

    Author's point of view... For a long time, Thea hadn’t gone on outings with her classmates, not since an unlucky incident that happened when she was still in junior high. Diana and Nick had worried about their daughter’s social life, not knowing if she was avoiding invitations or simply wasn’t invited. Seeing her go on this trip filled Diana with relief. She almost couldn't contain her excitement. Thea was taken aback by her mom's enthusiasm. She chuckled. "No Mom, it's all set. I won't need anything else. A friend of mine has taken care of all the preparations." "That’s so kind of them!" Diana's ears perked up and she slightly blinked, asking further, "Is it a boy or a girl? What’s your friend’s name?" Diana asked with a playful curiosity that only mothers seem to have. Thea casually walked into her room and removed the towel wrapped on her head and started drying her hair. She replied casually, "It’s a group of us going together. There are many top students in m

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 25 She is actually so cute...!

    Author's point of view... "What the hell...!!" Kevin almost jolted from the place where he was standing and started rubbing his eyes. Aaron was annoyed. Kevin was an expert in creating a drama. "Is that really her or my eyes are playing games with me...?" Kevin mumbled in disbelief. Aaron rolled his eyes, he was sitting opposite Kevin and couldn't see what he was gawking at, but the way Kevin behaved, Aaron was sure he was exaggerating about something useless. "Will you stop this," Aaron groaned. "I am not seeing things, am I?" Kevin ignored Aaron's words. Aaron's mouth twitched. "Did you see a ghost, Kevin?" he mocked irritatingly. "No...but it's more unbelievable than seeing a ghost. Look at her..." Kevin replied, pointing at someone behind Aaron, still in shock, but Aaron had no intention on getting into his crab. He sighed, shaking his head. "A girl, right?...Are you serious, Kevin?" Aaron smacked and Kevin immediately added, "Just look at her and I am sure y

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 26 Can you carry it?

    Author's point of view... They drove in silence for sometime and soon Mark, dozed off, his head soon resting on Kevin’s shoulder and on top of him lay the trouble maker's head. Finally...! Thea felt her ears were in peace. When the car was finally peaceful, Aaron turned to Thea. He had been glancing at her sneakily, his hand travelled through his hair. He wanted to talk to her but didn't know what to say. Clearing his throat, he asked, “Have you been camping before?” In his mind he sighed. What kind of idiotic question did he ask...! How could a simple girl like her go camping?? Thea was staring out of the window, looking at how beautiful this world was. She turned around and thought for a while before replying. Aaron was sure about the answer. She wouldn't have been to the places like these. It must be her first time. “Not more often but sometimes, I do,” she said with a hint of nostalgia, her mind roaming back to her memories. Aaron was shocked. Did she?? “I’ve

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 27 A cat...! or something else...?

    Author's point of view... “Don’t fall too far behind, okay? And if you need help, just call us... We will be slow to keep up with you...” Aaron said while wearing his own backpack. Thea was amused at how much Aaron underestimated her but played along. Is that because she was a girl?? she scoffed internally. “Don’t worry, I’ll keep up.” She didn't want to show off but it didn't mean she wasn't offended. Soon the school buses arrived at the first camping spot after them. Though the same mountain, there were several routes to hike. Aaron had planned a special way to go up, different from the other usual one that the school authorities had planned to take. The group began their hike. Kevin, full of energy, kept darting around and calling out, causing Thea to stifle a frustrated laugh. He had been picking up small pebbles and throwing them at Thea and Mark. He was getting on her nerves. Heaving a sigh, she stopped. She wanted to play with him. “Stop yelling, Kevin!” she

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 28 She was here to cling on to him...!

    Author's point of view... "Help!" Several cries for help came from the forest, that sounded like women. What the hell...! Who is that? Could it be some animal chasing after the other students? Everyone thought except for Thea, who was busy arguing with Mike. "Did you just say cat? Then why are people shouting out there?" "You'll get to know soon"Mike replied casually. Thea rolled her eyes in irritation. He never gives a reliable explanation. But if that was a wild animal as what she thought, this would be dangerous. Thea stepped forward, ready to attack whatever was coming but Aaron rushed to her and stood right before her as if shielding her from any danger coming their way. "You all stay here, I'll go check it..." Aaron stood ahead and was about to go take a look. "Help..." "Help...!" someone cried again. Kevin immediately grabbed a stick from the ground. "Who's calling for help?" Mark tensed up as well, looking around with wide eyes. "I don't have an

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 29 How dare she steal my man...!!

    Author's point of view...! "You are really something." Thea scoffed, "You actually mistook a plastic bag for a giant beast or cat or whatever?? Lily, are you so bored or really that scared, or were you just looking for an excuse to jump into Aaron's arms?" Thea taunted. Lily’s cheeks turned bright red, and she glared at Thea furiously. "What are you implying, Thea?" Thea casually threw that plastic cover aside and brushed her hands. She didn't say anything else but that look on her face gave it all. "Exactly what I said," Thea responded calmly, meeting Lily's angry gaze without flinching. Kevin started giggling. Lily’s embarrassment deepened, and she quickly tried to defend herself. "So what if I thought it was something dangerous? It was dark inside those bushes and I was genuinely frightened. Who wouldn’t be scared of a wild animal?" She threw a glance at Kevin, who was equally rattled earlier. "Didn't you see that. Kevin was scared too," she added with a smirk.

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 30 Do we know each other...?

    Author's point of view... Thea stood up and strolled towards the nearby stream, seemingly bored but her eyes widened as she looked down on the wet ground nearby."Oh my..." She had noticed something alarming, a set of fresh foot marks of the same beast that she saw earlier, near the water’s edge. Unlike the other one, this print was clear and fresh. It was clear that something was present in those woods and that animal was in the area, possibly even close to their planned route. She slightly bent over to take a better look. "It must be a Leopold or a Panther...! It's huge..." Thea mumbled while studying the print. "What are you looking at, Thea?" Kevin asked, coming over with his plate, still in his hands. She jolted awkwardly and frowned. "Can't you be normal just for once...!" she smacked. Kevin grinned. He couldn't...!! "Are you looking for fish? There's probably no fish in this stream, right?" he said peeking into the stream, oblivious to what Thea was truly o

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 76 Are you interrogating me?

    Author's point of view... Aaron and Mark searched the entire campus whereas Dave went straight to the CC TV room to check the footage. With his authority, no one stopped him from getting in. He checked all the footage available including the one from outside of the school yet there wasn't any sign of her. At last, the one in charge of the CCTV cameras opened the folder with the footage with the cameras near the restrooms. Dave's eyes lit up at the sight of Thea walking towards the restrooms in one of the footage. "So she indeed went to the restroom. That boy wasn't braging unnecessarily" He continued seeing the footage but even after a few more minutes, she didn't return. The position of the nearest camera was a few steps away from the bathroom as it was a rule to leave that space unsupervised because of the privacy of the students. Dave saw her walking in but she never walked out. "Is there any other way out of that place?" he asked the security personnel sittin

    Author's point of view... "That's all rubbish...!" Mr. Lawrence yelled as they were sitting in his office. The officers were turning his entire office upside down just to find any evidence against him but unfortunately there was nothing. "You just got a fake call and rushed all the way here to humiliate me...Officer, you messed with the wrong person. I won't let it slide so easily..." Lawrence continued his ranting and the officer, ignoring him, continued his search. However, there wasn't the slightest shred of concern on Lawrence's face. He was sure these people won't get anything. After searching the entire office for more than half an hour, the officer finally gave up. "See, I told you that you are accusing the wrong person. But listen to me very carefully, officer, I am going to let you pay for this humiliation. Now just leave and wait for my lawyer's notification..." Lawrence sneered. The officers felt embarrassed. If it was someone else, they would have just ignore

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 74 What should I call you?

    Author's point of view... Ray allowed himself a small chuckle, looking down as if the question amused him. There was no way he would show his panic before anyone. Wouldn't that make him look vulnerable? How could a rich businessman like him be panicked by just a mere assistant! Ray narrowed his eyes before explaining, though that smirk still tugged on his face. “My sister is a student here,” he said, glancing back up with a steady gaze that betrayed no fear. “I stopped by to check on her. Is that a crime, officer?” The official hesitated, shifting uncomfortably under Ray’s piercing stare. He couldn’t risk offending someone as influential as Ray Charles, especially without solid evidence. As a mere assistant, he had to bow down before breaking. “No, sir,” the official replied, his voice losing a bit of its edge. “But we need to conduct our investigation. I request you to wait outside.” Ray inclined his head slightly in acknowledgment and rose from his seat with deliberate

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 73 Now she’ll learn her place...!

    Author's point of view... After eating the lunch with Dave, Aaron and Mark, Thea left to use the restroom while the others return to their classes. Dave, however received a call and went out to attend it. Thea pushed the restroom door open, she was entirely out of the place, her thoughts clouded with the events of the day. The results were about to be announced though she wasn't bothered about it. Just as she stepped out of the girls restroom, a sharp voice froze her in her tracks. “Well, look who’s here.” Lily strutted in, her entourage of ten girls filing behind her like soldiers awaiting orders. Thea’s sharp eyes flicked over the group, immediately sensing trouble. Lily’s smirk was venomous, her hands crossed over her chest in mock authority. She looked so confident as if she owned this entire campus. “You lost the bet, didn’t you? Shouldn’t you be running naked around the school now? Why are you even here?” Lily sneered, her voice dripping with malice. The minio

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 72 The results are out...!

    Author's point of view... Mr. Lawrence walked out of the grand hall, his confidence radiating as he joined Ray Charles at the VIP section set up for spectators near the monitoring room. This hall was often used for conducting indoor game competitions or other cultural activities including proms, or sometimes even seminars. And so it was built in the middle of the school building so that anybody could see what was happening inside it from their respective floors. It was huge with a lot of space inside, enough to accommodate the entire school but today, other than Thea, only five of the invigilators who were there to supervise her were present. A desk was arranged in the middle of the hall with four different seats in four different directions. Thea was asked to sit on the seat in the middle whereas four of the supervisors were sitting on the other seats. One of them had to move around to keep an eye on her every move. That doesn't look like an examination hall at all. Instead

    Author's point of view... Mr. Laurence smirked confidently. "Evidence? Young lady, you have none. Stop this nonsense and accept your punishment." Thea crossed her arms, her chin tilted up defiantly. “How do you know I have none? Evidence, right?” she scoffed, her tone dripping with mockery. “I am the evidence.” The room fell silent. Mr. Laurence froze mid-smirk, his face contorting in confusion, while Ray Charles blinked in disbelief, the sneer momentarily wiped off his face. The audacity of this girl...! His patience thinning every second. “You’re delusional,” Ray spat, regaining his composure. He shot a look at Mr. Laurence and added sharply, “I don’t have time for these games. If you can’t resolve this matter immediately, Mr. Laurence, I’ll have to reconsider our company’s funding of this institution.” Mr. Laurence paled. “No, no, Mr. Charles, please! There’s no need for that. I assure you, this will be handled promptly.” He turned to Thea with a scowl, his

  • I'm Ready To Take It All   Chapter 70 Outlaw...!

    Author's point of view... "Mr. Laurence, did you get that girl?" Thea was surprised to hear that familiar voice coming out of the principal's office. "Ray...!!" she muttered to herself. "Ray Charles?" He was sitting on the chair, leaning back so arrogantly with one of his legs crossed on the other. Mr. Laurence was a ln elderly middle aged man. Though he wasn't one of those prominent families in the city, he was respectable. "I thought this was a reputable School but it seems like you don't care about your reputation anymore" Ray continued and Mr. Laurence flinched uncomfortably. "Mr. Charles...that's...not the case..." he tried to explain but Ray cut him off, "You actually admit such outlaw students into your school and you are trying to explain it to me? You let me down, Mr. Laurence" Thea raised her eyebrows. Outlaw...! What are they trying to do? And what the hell is this all about? Mr. Laurence wiped the sweat on his forehead. Thea was trying to unders

    Author's point of view... “When you were sent here for your quest, I was sent for one too and mine was a little bit different from you. As the dragon breed, my soul was split into two halves. One of the two parts was the little dragon you met and the other...” He paused and stared at her as if trying to figure out if he could say it or not. Thea frowned, curiosity overriding her shock. “What?? Split into two? What does that even mean? Where’s the other half?” Mike enjoyed her curiosity and a grin spread on his face. “It’s also on Earth,” Mike replied cryptically. “You’ll find out soon enough.” Thea’s frustration boiled over. Now she wasn't doubtful at all. No matter how he looked, his words remain the same, useless as ever. “Why are you being so cryptic?" she smacked back frustratingly, "And what’s with the mask? Are you hiding an ugly face under there?” Mike chuckled, his laughter low and deep. “Perhaps. Or maybe I’m protecting you from a sight you’re not ready for.”

    Author's point of view... Aaron and Mark reached the hospital and when they entered Kevin's room, they heard a blasting sound and almost jolted back. "Surprise...!" Kevin and his mother shouted joyfully. But soon as they saw it was just Aaron and Mark, their faces faltered momentarily. "Where is Thea?" Kevin asked disappointedly and walked over to check outside the door. His Mom was equally curious. "Did she not come today?" Nancy asked a bit disheartened. Aaron and Mark shared surprised glances before shrugging their shoulders and replied, still a bit confused. "She said she had something else to do and so she will visit him next time" All the excitement on Kevin's face fell. He slumped his shoulders as he walked back to his bed. "Why didn't she come?" he poured like a small disappointed kid, his Mom patted his back and tried to comfort him. Both Aaron and Mark stood there watching the drama. "What is going on?" Mark asked and slowly reached Kevin as both he an
