Not when she thinks him to be a cruel man who had taken advantage of their son’s pure intention.“Ashley I…” he stuttered but his voice ended up fading before he could even complete his statement.Ashley scoffed as hot breath burned through her lips. She shook her head in disbelief and as she tried to leave, two reporters cornered her again repeating the same questions nonstop“Quiet down now will you?!” Rhett roared with uncontrollable fury as everyone gasped in shock.

As Rhett's Mercedes bumped roughly along the road, the car nearly skidded into a ditch due to the rough handling. Rhett seethed with anger as the article replayed in his head, fueling his frustration. Wearing his Earbuds, he began making calls to track down the source of the online news. After ending the call with Derek, an incoming call from Optimist made him tap his earbuds to answer."I'm not sure if you're prepared for this news, buddy," Optimist's voice hesitated."Give me the name, Optimist!" Rhett shouted, tightening his grip on the wheel."You're driving, Rhett. You need to calm down first," Optimist advised out of concern, but Rhett was too agitated to listen.He abruptly veered the car off the highway, pulling out his phone and tossing the Earbud away.

“Mommy, are you okay?” Kristian’s soft voice finally invaded Ashley’s deep thoughts and she gasped at the realization that her son had been calling her for a while but she wasn’t responding.“Oh sweetheart, I’m sorry… yes I’m fine” she stuttered with hitched breath, battling her lashes anxiously.“How was school today? did anybody tell you something strange?” Ashley turned to face her son seriously. She knows that it’s only a matter of days before people find out her real identity now that the reports didn’t bother to hide her name.Also because she’s a person of interest in the city, many people would have been on her tail already so it’s only a matter of time until Kristian starts having issues at school as well.“Nothing strange happened Mommy” Kristian responded as he grabbed his ice cream pack, his eyes glistening so brightly that it made Ashley feel motivated and energized.Ashley’s lips turned sideways with a smile and she ruffled her son’s hair playfully before stepping out to
