"Mum." Sue says and hugs her. "Hope it wasn't too cramped in there?"

"It's not something I'd love to do again I tell you." Holly laughs and pats her shoulder.

Then, she turns to Jean and gives her a big hug. "I'm not leaving you behind ever anymore. I love you too much to do so." She smiles at her warmly.

The reporters are not sure how to take the situation but it's their jobs to report what's going on so in different ways, they report the development to the viewers of their TV channels.

One of them reports, "It's a massive turn of events here at the burial site of Holly McCartney as it turns out, she's alive and well..."

"Well, it has all come to an end hasn't it? We're no more related in any way. You get the house anyway, I'm not that petty even though you know quite well I have a right to. You can have some alone time with your daughter now. No one to impede your shopping sprees. And yeah, Alexa is welcome to come say hi whenever she wants to." He smiles wryly and turns to walk down the staircase."But..." She starts, stepping forward."But what?" He turns around and asks her.She looks down and mutters in a small voice. "If you go now, you'll send some stipend right? I still have to eat and do some other things."James looks at her for a moment, wondering if

Here she is..."Brian nods and reaches for a thick white envelope beside him. He raises it up to the officer and gives it to him."Don't forget, it should remain on the hush hush if you don't want trouble from the Masons. And I assure you, you have a lot to lose from me as well if they find out she's out of here."Gail does not say anything and just keeps shifting left and right on the chair as she's completely uncomfortable on the chair she's sitting in.Brian pays her no heed as they drive out.

Alexa and Sharon taken care of, at least to an extent, work seems fine and they all take a day off, including Marshall who stays over.Sue enters the room and makes a call.

Normally, the place is always crowded but the staff knows who he is so they don't dispute when he wants a window seat that overlooks the whole city.One unique thing about the sky bar is that it almost seems like the place is bending. Like the room is falling down to the ground so it faces the ground directly. Even though it's too far to see anything definete on the ground, the roofs of houses and industrial buildings are quite visible.He looks down the building and away, taking in all the beautiful evening lights of the whole city.

Over her shoulders, she slung a small pearly black bag over with chain hands.Sue gives a big hug when she sees her. She uses the opportunity to whisper. "You look like you're dressed to kill."They both laugh. Tara hands her the peach gown in her hands and a shoe box, along with another bag that contains other needed accessories. "That gown is to die for and its the only edition in the country. We're yet to make the last few ones to send out to the VVIPs who have requested for them, like the daughter of the President.""Which President do you mean?""Of the US of course. Do you have another President?" Tara rolls her eyes and then looks around anxious. "There's a reason why you asked me to dress when com

    Gail is walking around in her house, lost in thought.From time to time she shakes her head negatively and then nods, smiling and then furiously shakes her head again.Like she's fighting a war within herself.She finally sits down, frustrated and grunts. "What the fuck is so wrong with this plan? I have to find a loophole for myself."In her head, she rehashes Brian's plan in her head, hoping to find someone or something she could use to her advantage."Aha!" She jumps up happily. "I found it. I'm going to ruin them both but after I let that perverted bastard have his way with the woman, then I'll ruin them..."She goes back to thinking out loud again. "I don't even need to kill the woman to ruin her but that man has to die..."She smiles sinisterly and goes to the room to switch on her old phone so her calls won't be traced but she had no idea that her old phone was still being followed by someone.On the phone, she smoothens and perfects her own plan to get both Brian and Sue.*Su

Find me a good slot where I can showoff my modeling skills, okay?""Yes ma'am."Gail hangs up and pats her leg.

    It's Ford's turn to facepalm, although there's a hint of hidden laughter on his face. "We'll deal with you two later. Let's attend to the reporters so we can get some rest, what do you think?"Sue nods, agreeing. "Please.""Attention please. Come this way if you have questions. We'll answer them to the best of our abilities."This grabbed all attention towards the couple who stand side by side, Ford's large hands enclosing Sue's in his. "So we heard you have questions for us?""Is a wedding really happening? I mean you're two influential families. Don't you want to give a chance to others?"They all laugh."Well, what can we say when fate drew us to one another? I can't swap her for the world and I'm sure it's a mutual feeling."

    For the next few weeks, all Holly and Darlene saw of their children and grandchild was video calls and posts on their social media accounts.They had tons of fun, not wanting it to end.They visited many states, including Dallas where everyone got to go to a Cowboy festival where they had rodeo drives and roasted pigs and kicked up as many dusts they could on themselves and others while riding horses and when simply running around, having fun.For the first few days after the incident that shook the whole family so much, Ashley was a little sad and scared. Every minute, she would shake without reason, like a sudden gust of wind was blown on her and it worried everyone so much until they went on their vacation where Ashley was always within eyeshot. Everyone had eyes on her and others, ready to make another lesson of anybody who tries to try shit with them as an individual and as a family as a whole.For a whole month, they visited every amusement park, every theme park, every Five Mi

    Ford stands with the Chief of the Police Force as they both watch the body get covered and the ambulance leaves with the other.The chief barks out orders to his men and they respond with gusto and then he faces Ford and smiles warily. "What really happened here?""They both had kidnapped my daughter and sister. I wanted to teach them a lesson but I didn't even get to. Brian got his hand shot off by Angela while she fell through that window all on her own. I guess the guilt from shooting her partner was too much but I don't think she'd want to die so the falling must have been an accident." He explains, meeting the Chief's eyes very bravely and squarely."Hm, I see. So that's what happened. We'll get the body to the morgue while the man will be taken to the hospital. I never thought I'd see a severed hand like that, it looked so roughly pulled or torn apart. Do you know about that?"Ford shakes his head. "As soon as Angela fell, I and my assistant both left the room, hoping we could s

"You know it is not your fault right? Those bastards must have known one way or the other that whatever happened was a result of their own choices."Sue tries to smile. "It's not that actually but thanks for being here with me..." Sue glances at Ashley as the girl snuggles closer to her, putting her head on her inner arms. Sue turns to Tanya and smiles appreciatively. "You know, I never had the opportunity to adequately thank you for what you did even after you got beaten while doing it. I really owe you a lot."Tanya smiles widely. "You don't need to thank me. It's what any human would have done,

    James picks up Ashley from the ground, trying to calm and stop her from crying and at the same time, noticing the soft bump on the door.The door opens and out comes Marshall, who barks at one of the two men who came up with him. "Call the authorities! Immediately." He goes back in and closes the door behind him again.James tried to peep in through the open crack but he didn't see anything other than Marshall's body blocking the door and the light in the room.Who had been shot?No one knows, all except those inside.*Holly laughs excitedly as she licks off the upper part of the ice cream she's holding, and Darlene cracking jokes jokes beside her."And then I go, oh my goodness, I didn't switch on the electric cooker after putting the water on for over two hours..."Holly only laughs the more.
