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. "GIVE ME A NAME!" he demanded firmly and authoritatively."It traces back to your grandfather. He owns 'Fact Talkers,' the platform that first released the article before others reposted it. I'm sorry, I should have handled th

“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

With her head raised high and gaze unflattering, she walked elegantly through the invading flashes and crowds of people who gathered to take a look at her and those who intentionally paused to glance at her.On getting inside, Ashley Gu was immediately taken by her assistant who led her to the table reserved in her name.As expected, all eyes were on her as she entered the room. It was as if the whole world had come to an end as all activities in the room became subtly affected, including the slow music but Ashley didn’t flinch.The situation was strange for a while considering how she’d been left alone with no one trying to bother her for a business talk unlike before in all parties.And then, an unfamiliar man came up to her table.Ashley Gu raised her glass of wine with a smirk and took a quick sip as a good chance to glance around without her desperation being widely spread across the room.“Good evening Miss Ashley…” A man appeared, his sparkling brown eyes dousing all other dubi

Throughout the ride to Ashley’s home, Rhett was trying so hard to sober up from the after-effect of the alcohol and the lustful thoughts that had taken over his mind; a strange feeling he refused to pay much attention to.As he prepared to step out of the car, a cold breeze washed over his face and he suddenly felt hot from within, coupled with a sharp pain in his tummy.“F*ck! I should have been careful” he muttered with a groan.He waited for a few seconds before he composed himself and strode off to the large gate of a gigantic building that was once his home.Even as a strong man that he is, he could not stop himself from feeling nervous and uneasy. Multiple thoughts play in his head as he stares at the doorbell and back to his car that’s parked right in front of the gate.Finally, he made up his mind and pressed the doorbell but a text came through instead.“The car will be safer inside” When he read the text, his heartbeat picked up race because he had no idea what this woman wa
