Rachel stood up and watched as Mr Anderson walked away from the library. She had felt so nervous talking to him, how could she open her mouth to tell him that she didn't know what to do from this moment? Wouldn't it make her look unserious?It was so strange to be involved in a case like this. In the movies, they made it look so easy — like all you had to do was just find the guilty person, open a court case, win the court case and take the person to jail. But in real life, it was completely different. Sometimes it worked just like the movies but sometimes, just like her own case, it was completely different.What do you do when you are worth almost nothing and you're going against someone who was in charge of a multibillion dollar company? What do you do when you are married to the son of that person and you're not sure if that person would choose to save his family instead of doing the right thing? Who would want to destroy their own family?It really didn't always work like the mov

Morris tried to focus his attention on the blinking laptop in front of him but it was not working. His mind kept on wandering over to the mission he had sent Raymond to handle.Did it turn out successful? Had he been able to get a hold of the detective lady? This was the only way he could gain total control of the situation. If he acted slow or made any mistake right now, he would pay for it. And if Raymond failed in this mission to capture Sophia, it would become harder to ever capture her. She would become more careful and observant.Morris released a long sigh of deep frustration and pressed a few buttons, shutting down his laptop. He needed some fresh air, the oxygen in his personal library suddenly didn't seem enough.Getting up from his chair, he started walking towards the door and just at the same time, Raymond stepped into his library, a worried expression etched on his face."Raymond…" Morris muttered, completely startled as he almost bumped into him. He stepped back and cas

Morris rose up from his chair and stared at Patricia who stood quietly with an unreadable expression on her face."What are you trying to say?" He asked, hoping he was just overthinking and she didn't really mean anything she just said.Patricia scoffed "Are you trying to check if I really know what I'm saying or if I'm just pulling your legs? You want to dig deeper, right?"Morris looked away and muttered, getting irritated. "If you don't have anything important to say, you can leave. Don't mess with my plans for today, I have a lot on my plate…""You finally got what you wanted, right? My company? You must be so proud of yourself, Morris Scott" Raymond, who had been standing still all this time, glanced at her for a moment before looking away.Morris chuckled and waved her off "You can't be serious. What are you talking about?"Patricia paced slowly in front of where Morris stood, both of her hands resting behind her back. "You see, the more I think about it, your plan so far has

"Where do we go from here?" Rachel asked Sophia over the phone. "Time has been going and it just feels like we're doing nothing much to pursue this case. Besides, George is already aware of everything""Are you serious? When did he find out?" Sophia asked"I think it was yesterday""What did he say? What did he do?""He confronted me about it and yes, we argued a bit because I didn't reveal it to him on time. But after that, he promised to help me get justice for my father.""Hmm…can you trust him on that? Getting justice for your father means he has to go against his father, his family. All of this might even affect the company sales when it enters the news. I'm not really sure if he would want to ruin everything his family has worked for just to help you, but let's see…""You just said my mind. I was having exactly the same thoughts. Anyway, that aside, we need to hurry up with this. Especially now that George knows, he might end up confronting his father about this. And the moment

Rachel squatted in front of George and she pushed his feet into his shoes. She was so happy to see him awake and finally back to normal. For some reason, she had been worried that his treatment wouldn't work but looking at him now, she was pleased with how everything turned out.George sat down quietly and watched as Rachel fixed his shoes and cufflinks. Was she acting kind to him just because she pitied him for this moment or because she really cared about him? He would never know…Personally, he didn't feel like seeing anybody. He just wanted to hide away for the rest of his life, so he never came in contact with the terrible people around him. That didn't make any sense at all at this moment but that was how he felt.Rachel rose to her feet and looked at him "You're all set now. Your mother must be waiting. How do you feel now?""I feel okay" He mumbled dryly "Resting for three days paid off"Rachel gazed at him for a moment. He seemed distant. She shook her head, pushing away the
