The sound of the door closing made Ashley looked back. She met his eyes that once mesmerized her so. She walked to the couch and made herself comfortable as she crossed her legs and said: “Where’s the divorce papers? You brought it, right?”

After what happened today, Ashley was more resolute in divorcing him as soon as possible. She saw the deep schemes in Talia’s eyes and the snake-like gleam that flashed across her eyes when she glanced at Scottie. For Ashley, Talia was a ticking time bomb.

She did not mind but it did not mean Scottie thought so too.“Where’s Dad, Grandpa?” He was smart for his age. He already guessed where his father was but he wanted to hear it from his Grandfather. He could not ask his mother—his little heart feared that she would be sad again. He had seen this situation too many times ever since he could remember.Vulcan, who was seated at the center of the awfully long table, sighed. He glanced at the indifferent Ashley then to the hopeful great-grandson of his. “He was seeing off a guest. Have a seat and we will start when your father comes back.”Scottie sat next to the Old Man which was to his left. The right side was reserved to Jaxon.

Apart from Momo, Dylan, and Ashley, there was no one at the backseat—it was to the minimal. But looking outside the bullet-proofed nanny van especially configured by Jaxon for this night, there were two cars before the van while there were another two tailing behind them.

By the fourth time, she finally snapped at Izana.“Where to?” Izana drove slowly as if he was just driving in a countryside. His left hand on the stirring wheel while his other hand held Talia’s hand.
