Kelly returned to the living room with the bowl of neat water Vivianne ordered her to bring. After she gave the bowl to Vivianne, she bent down and was staring at the unconscious guy's face with total curiosity. “Vivianne, aren't you wondering why he got shot? What if he's actually a bad and dangerous guy?”. Vivianne stopped cleaning the unconscious guy's face, after hearing what Kelly said to her. To be honest, even Vivianne didn't understand why he got shot. She doesn't even know whether he's a dangerous guy or not. “Let's just leave all our imaginations to fate, Kelly”. Vivianne simply replied, without looking at Kelly's face. In no time, she soaked her handkerchief inside the bowl of neat water, and after the handkerchief got wet enough, she took it out and used it to clean the unconscious guy's bloody leg. It took Vivianne a while, but she finished cleaning the blood, and she also put medicine on the injured leg. After that, she took out bandages from the first-aid box
It was already 7am in the morning. Vivianne was the first person who woke up from sleep because of the way she was feeling so uneasy and unsettled. “Since I'm awake, I might as well go and visit my injured guest”. After saying these words to herself, Vivianne nodded her head in agreement, before she left Barrett's bedroom and went to her own bedroom. After Vivianne arrived inside her room, she became extra cautious as she walked towards the large blue bed. Just a few seconds later, Vivianne arrived at the bedside, but the unconscious guy who had an injured leg, was nowhere to be found. “Wh- where did he go?”. She nervously swallowed the invisible lump on her throat, as she questioned herself. Vivianne was still nervously staring at the bed, when a strong muscular hand suddenly reached out and touched her shoulder. “Argh!!!”. Vivianne shouted loudly and also fell on the bed because of fright. It took her a while, but she eventually regained herself and rose from the bed i
In less than 20 minutes, Billy, Charlie and the 6 men arrived outside the Beckham mansion. This caused Billy to be surprised, because he never imagined that their boss Axel would be inside the Beckham mansion. Turning to face Charlie, Billy said to him, “Charlie, is your tracking device actually broken? Because, how can our boss Axel be inside the Beckham mansion?”. “Stop asking me silly questions, Billy”. Charlie wrapped his hands on his chest, before he replied to Billy with a frown on his face. After seeing the frowning look on Charlie's face, Billy pouted his lips in annoyance. Later on, he ordered, “Scale the walls, men!”. Immediately after Billy's order, the 6 men leaped over the walls without any difficulties. Meanwhile, Charlie and Billy stared at each other with piercing gaze, before they also leaped over the walls and entered the mansion's premises. Inside the mansion, the living room, Vivianne had already finished eating breakfast, and ever since then, she'd be
“Don't be so surprised, Kelly. If we begin our training sessions at the boxing centre, it'd improve our courage and we'd also become stronger. In that way, we'd be able to defend ourselves at any moment. And if you get stronger, you won't have to worry a lot about your father”. Vivianne explained. Vivianne's explanation made absolute sense to Kelly, who was already finding the boxing centre quite interesting. Yes, Kelly would really love to get stronger, so that she could always defend herself against her scheming father!. “I'm in, Vivianne!”. With sparkling eyes, Kelly announced. “That's the spirit, Kelly! Our boxing sessions will begin by tomorrow, and at 7am everyday. But until then, we have to go to my Z-company right now and study a lot. My Z-company specialises in investments and game development, and I have very little experience”. “Noted. I'll go and prepare immediately”. Kelly quickly said, before she rushed to her room. Vivianne too left for her room, and as she entered
Raquel arrived inside her bedroom and was greatly surprised to see how the whole place was neat and arranged. She turned behind her and saw Aurora, who also entered the bedroom with her. “Ha, I can't believe I'm finally back in Phoenix city”. Raquel went and sat on her bed as she said to Aurora, who later joined her on the bed. “You have to believe it, Raquel. I really missed you so much”. Aurora admitted with a bright smile. She was so happy that she ended up hugging Raquel and refused to let her go.The hug lasted for a while, until Raquel forcefully rose from the bed and escaped from Aurora. “Come on, Raquel. Let me hug you more. I really missed you”. “I'm absolutely going to suffocate if you continue hugging me, Aurora. You're so clingy and adorable! I can't even believe you're already 26 years old!”. Raquel's hands were wrapped on her chest when she said this to Aurora, who pouted her lips in disbelief afterward. “Tsk. I already know that I'm cute and adorable, Raquel. Thoug
The next day,Brianna had been trying her best to avoid Kendrick, because of the way she raised her voice against him last night. She knew that she went overboard the previous night, but it wasn't entirely her fault, since she couldn't control her strong emotions. Checking the time on her cell phone, Brianna saw that it was 6:00 am. “I have two hours left before I'll take my Harry to school”. Brianna admitted and was contemplating what to do. She has to take her bath and dress up, but with Kendrick still around, she doesn't have the courage to go to their bedroom. Harry suddenly woke up from sleep and was rubbing his eyes with the back of his hand. After that, he quietly sat on his bed, before he finally noticed his Mommy's presence. She was sitting on the edge of his bed. Harry saw the dull look on his mom's face, so he curiously asked because he was worried, “Mommy, are you alright? You look so sad”. “Oh my, you've already woken up, my Harry”. Brianna exclaimed and didn't mind
After many minutes of attacking the punching bags, Vivianne and Kelly finally got so tired and were already sweaty. Even Kelly had to remove her mask because she was running short of air. “You did great jobs, ladies!”. Jimmy announced, and was staring at Vivianne and Kelly, who were both sitting on the floor. He later took two bottles of water and gave them to Vivianne and Kelly, who gladly collected it from his large hands. After opening her own bottle of water and taking a sip from it, Vivianne seriously admitted, “I'm honestly so tired right now. I can't believe I still have to go to work today. But it's worth it, after all, I'm a step stronger”. Jimmy chuckled and held his stomach in the process after listening to Vivianne's complaint. In fact, he chuckled even more after seeing the pale look on Kelly's face. “What's funny, coach Jimmy?”. Vivianne curiously asked him, since he hasn't stopped laughing yet. “Oh, don't mind me at all, Vivianne”. Jimmy admitted. After
Vivianne drove all the way to Z-company without even stopping the car for a second. And now that she'd arrived at her company, she parked the car at the company's parking lot, before she got down and was followed by Kelly, who also got down from the car. Ever since the moment Kelly got down from the car, she'd been staring at the clothes she was wearing. And this strange action of hers caused Vivianne to be confused. “Em, what are you doing, Kelly?”. Vivianne suddenly questioned, since was curious, and at the same time, confused. “Our clothes…. Aren't they too casual for work, Vivianne? I mean, we are supposed to wear formal clothes”. Upon hearing what Kelly said to her, Vivianne unconsciously slapped her own forehead in disbelief. She couldn't believe that she was still wearing the same clothes she used for practising boxing. “Gosh, I totally forgot that we were supposed to change our clothes after training, Kelly. Tsk. I guess it's late for us to change our clothes righ
“Debbie?”Debbie stood up from bed after she saw Alan. She was staring at him but didn't exactly know what to say to him. As she was about to lower her head in disappointment, that was when Alan rushed towards her and embraced her.“I miss you so much, Debbie!”. Alan continued to hug her as he said. What shocked Kelly was the minute she saw Alan crying. “What?”. She was so stunned because she had not expected a scary looking man like Alan to be crying like a baby. She wanted to stand up, unfortunately, she had no choice but to refrain from doing that because she had stressed her injured leg when she stubbornly went to make food for Debbie, despite the way the chefs had pleaded for her to step aside. “I- I missed you too”. Debbie cried out, before Alan stopped hugging her and held her hands. Alan had a guilty expression on his face as he stared at Debbie's eyes and apologised to her, “I’m truly sorry for blaming you all these years. I should never have doubted you for even a second”
Alastair drove all the way to Mr Brooks' mansion with an angry look on his face. Because the front of his car had the Alvarez logo attached to it, the security guard of Mr Brooks' mansion opened the gates for him without delay. Alastair drove into the mansion before he got out of the car. He had a piercing look in his golden eyes as he stared at the building in front of him. “Brooks! Get out of here this instant!”. Alastair yelled. His blood was boiling with insane anger because he was anxious and worried about Kelly. Since Mr Brooks didn't come out of his mansion, Alastair decided to storm in. But before he could enter the building in front of him, one of the security guards who happened to be sweating on his forehead approached him and said, “Mr Brooks is not around, Mr Alvarez”. “He's not around?”. Alastair muttered, and his eyes darkened, as he became even more suspicious of Mr Brooks. ‘Could he be at his company?’. He wondered. ‘But come to think of it, how did Mr
Vivianne was able to recognise the doctor because he was wearing his doctor's uniform. She was also able to recognise Ray, causing her eyes to darken as she glared at him. “You. I know you. You are one of Mr Brooks’ men who attacked Kelly and I before”. Barrett was staring at Ray, but after hearing what his little sister said, he glared at Ray. He demanded an answer, “You attacked my little sister? How dare you?!”. “Doctor, can you explain to me what's going on right now? Who's that guy standing next to you?”. Garrett asked him after he had started glaring at Ray. ‘This guy doesn't seem like an ordinary person’. He thought to himself because of the way Ray was dressed and had an aura of authority surrounding him. Before the doctor could say anything, Ray walked towards them and introduced himself, “I'm Detective Ray. I came here as soon as I could after confirming that you three siblings were in this hospital. And Vivianne, I'm sorry for what happened between us before. I was
Shark had arrived with Mr Brooks in the uncompleted building.He got confused and halted after he saw one of his comrades unconscious on the dusty ground. “What happened here?”. He muttered, as he continued to be confused. Out of curiosity, he went ahead and bent down, before he placed two fingers beneath his unconscious comrade’s nose. He sighed in relief after he confirmed that his comrade was still alive. After standing up and turning to Mr Brooks who was behind him, Shark said to him, “He's alive. No need to panic. I'll figure out what's going on”. “You had better figure out what's going on. I didn't come all the way here to waste my precious time. Where's your boss? And where’s the girl I told you guys to capture for me?”. Mr Brooks demanded an answer. He was quite impatient. “Like I've said, Mr Brooks, I'll figure out what's going on. Just give me some time”. “Fine. I'll give you only ten minutes. Find out what's going on. In the meantime, I'm leaving this place. Whatever ha
The mother and daughter spent many minutes crying and cuddling each other. It was later on that they both stopped crying and settled down on the bed. Kelly rested her head on her mother's lap. It had been long since she last experienced the love of having a mother in her life. “Mommy, there's something important I must tell you about. Would you mind hearing me out?”.“Of course, my sweetie. You can tell me about it. I will gladly listen to you”. Debbie assured Kelly, and was gently patting her head in the process.“Mom, I've already discovered that Mr Brooks is not my father. Actually, I've met my real father, Mr Alan. I was living in his mansion before I was kidnapped by the men Mr Brooks had hired”. Kelly explained to Debbie, who gasped in disbelief. Debbie quickly lifted Kelly's head, which was resting on her lap. She began staring at Kelly but didn't know what to say because she was currently speechless. As if Kelly knew what her mother wanted to ask her, she smiled and said, “
“What do you mean Kelly is in trouble, Alastair? Did anything happen to her?”. Vivianne asked him. “When I woke up this morning, I couldn't find Kelly anywhere in the mansion. And now that I've seen that she's not in the hospital with you, it could only mean one thing”. Alastair paused, talking. Suspense filled the air before he continued saying, “Kelly must be in trouble! I have to find her before it's too late!”. “Wa- wait, wait, Alastair. Why do you assume that Kelly is in trouble? You can't jump into conclusions like this, simply because you don't know Kelly's whereabouts”. Vivianne said to him. She tried to stand up, but couldn't, because an IV was inside her vein. The minute Garrett noticed that Vivianne was about to remove the IV, he rushed and stopped her, by holding her hand. “Don't be reckless, Vivianne. Always think about your health first before you ever act”. He frowned as he said to her. Vivianne sighed. She shifted her attention back to Alastair afterward. Alasta
Warnings: This chapter contains violence and death.Location, An uncompleted building that was located in a remote village. Five men gathered around the lady who was asleep. Their eyes were piercing as they stared at her. They were angry, because the person who had hired them for this job had not yet arrived. “Boss, should we continue to wait for him? We should sell her if he doesn't show up and pay us for the job”. One of the men, who tied a red bandana around his head, suggested. He was the most impatient one among all of them. The eldest man, who happened to be holding a gun, frowned. He was the boss that the guy with the red bandana was talking to. His name was Gunnar, and he was very muscular compared to his lower comrades. Gunnar replied to him, “Be patient, Shark. If that man doesn't show up in the next 15 minutes, I'll make sure that this young lady suffers beyond anyone's imagination. One way or the other, it's going to be fun for us”. The other men agreed with what the
Alastair went ahead to look for Kelly. It wasn't a serious search at first, but after many minutes had passed, and he had not seen Kelly, he began to panic gradually. Alastair's panicking got worse after he couldn't find Kelly anywhere in the mansion. It was almost as if she suddenly disappeared. He returned inside the mansion in a hurry and went to meet butler Robert, who was busy taking care of the household affairs. Butler Robert, who was carefully going through the list in his hand, had to stop what he was doing because of Alastair. Alastair was standing in front of him and was breathing heavily, as if he had run a marathon. “Bu- butler Robert, are you really sure you didn't see Kelly this morning? I can't find her anywhere in the house!”. Alastair said to him without delay. “Isn't lady Kelly in her room, young master Alastair?”. Butler Robert asked him. “Of course she's not in her room, butler Robert. I've searched everywhere, but I couldn't find her”. Alastair re
The hospital, Last night, after Kelly had left the hospital with Alastair, Barrett and Garrett returned to their mansion. They arranged the whole place and took their showers, before they returned to the hospital this morning. Barrett and Garrett were both sitting on the sofa that was positioned next to the window. Garrett, who was looking more worried than Barrett, suddenly asked, “Big twin, why hasn't Vivianne woken …” He couldn't finish talking because Barrett exclaimed. “She's waking up!”. Barrett pointed a finger at Vivianne and exclaimed, as he couldn't hold back his excitement. Immediately, Barrett and Garrett stood up from the sofa at the same time. They hurried to Vivianne's side, and their eyes sparkled the instant Vivianne stared at both of them. “Bro- brothers? What are you guys doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in China by now?”. Vivianne's voice was gentle and calm as she asked Barrett and Garrett. She examined her surroundings, before she asked them again, “W
