Joshua and Ginny made their way down the grand staircase, their footsteps echoing off the marble floors. Raymond stood at the foot of the stairs, his posture rigid, as he attempted a warm greeting.“Good evening, Ginny,” Raymond said with a strained smile.Ginny barely acknowledged him, scoffing at his face, her eyes moving to her mom. “Morning, Mom,” she muttered before sitting at the table with a huff.Lucy glanced between her daughter and Raymond, her shoulders sagging slightly. The table was enveloped in a heavy silence, the clinking of cutlery the only sound breaking the stillness.Raymond’s voice broke the silence once more. “Ginny, is something wrong?”Ginny’s response was icy. “Nothing you need to worry about.”Lucy tried to diffuse the tension. “Joshua, how was your day?”Joshua’s smile was tight, his gaze darting between Ginny and Lucy. “It was fine, just busy. I’m looking forward to tonight.”Lucy gave a small, reassuring smile. “I’m glad to hear that. Joshua and I have som

Banged In The KitchenGinny descended the stairs, her mind still swirling with the chaos of emotions from the previous night.The house was eerily quiet, the early morning light filtering through the curtains, casting soft shadows across the floor.She moved on autopilot, her body tired but her mind restless. She needed something—anything—to distract her from the storm inside.She entered the kitchen, pulling out the coffee pot and filling it with water. The motions were automatic, her hands working while her mind wandered elsewhere.Placing the pot on the stove, she turned on the gas, waiting for the coffee to brew.The aroma began to rise, but before she could even take a moment to let the scent calm her, she felt arms wrap around her waist.Her body stiffened immediately, recognizing the familiar touch of Raymond. His chest pressed against her back, his breath hot on her neck. Instinctively, her anger flared, a reminder of all the lies, all the betrayal that still simmered under th

Raymond hovered nervously near the couch where Joshua lay, cleaning the mess his anxious hands had made.His eyes flickered from the bloodstained towels to Joshua, whose labored breathing seemed to strain with each shallow inhale, his bruised ribs barely expanding.His eyes slowly snapped upward as Lucy and Ginny descended the stairs, their footsteps echoing in the silence.Ginny’s eyes locked on Joshua the moment she stepped off the last stair, and the sight of him broke something inside her. His once-strong face was marred by swelling and purple bruises, his body twisted in pain.For a moment, her anger towards Raymond felt distant, drowned by a flood of concern for the man lying in front of her."How is he?" Ginny asked, her voice soft, as if speaking too loudly would shatter the fragile atmosphere.She crouched down beside Joshua, her hand hovering near his battered face but afraid to touch him, as though even the slightest pressure might break him further.Raymond looked up, guil

The car screeched to a stop in front of the ice cream shop. Joshua barely waited for the vehicle to halt before he flung the door open and dashed out, his legs pumping toward the entrance.Once inside, his breath hitched as his eyes widened at the sight before him—a long line of customers, snaking around the counter and nearly out the door. There was no way he could wait for his turn in that.His mind raced, glancing around for an alternative. His gaze settled on a little girl, no older than six, happily licking her cone. Her face lit up with joy as she savored each taste. Joshua swallowed hard, his eyes fixed on the ice cream in her tiny hands. He couldn’t afford to waste time waiting. He needed a way out—fast.Without thinking twice, Joshua approached the girl, crouching down to her level with a smile plastered on his face. “Hey there,” he began, his voice soft and friendly. “Do you know where they sell the really big ice creams? Bigger than yours?”The girl’s eyes lit up with curio

Joshua’s body jolted awake as something cold and wet splashed over him, drenching his clothes and sending a violent shiver down his spine.His eyes shot open, his breath coming out in sharp gasps as he tried to register what had just happened.A bucket, filled with freezing water had been dumped on him, and now he was lying soaked on the cold floor.Before he could move, a rough hand grabbed the collar of his shirt, yanking him up with a force that sent pain shooting through his muscles. Joshua groaned, blinking rapidly to clear his vision, and found himself face-to-face with the furious man from the ice cream shop, his eyes blazing with rage."You think you can steal from my daughter and just get away with it, huh?" the man snarled, his grip tightening around Joshua’s collar. "You're about to find out what happens to thieves."Joshua’s pulse raced, panic setting in as the man began dragging him across the floor, heading toward the door. The bodyguards loomed behind them, their faces
