Chapter: chapter seven Two days later, Kimmy stood behind the counter of the thrift store, pretending to arrange old books while her mind remained somewhere else entirely. She hadn’t stopped thinking about Gabriel West or his warning,or Roy's calm voice telling her she wasn't safe..For two whole days, she had tried convincing herself that maybe they were exaggerating. Maybe whoever attacked her had already moved on. Maybe if she just stayed quiet and lived carefully, everything would return to normal.But deep down, fear sat heavily in her chest.She checked the wall clock for what felt like the tenth time that hour.5:15 PM.She needed to get to the hospital. Her mother had sounded weak on the phone earlier, and Kimmy hated leaving her there alone. She quickly closed the register and walked to her boss.“ Mrs Nora, please can I close early today? My mother’s at the hospital and I need to check on her.”Mrs Nora looked up from her newspaper and sighed, “You’ve been distracted all day, Kimmy. Go. Just

Chapter: chapter six Kimmy walked out of of the building with heavy steps, her heart pounding so loudly it felt like it might burst through her chest. The coldness in his voice still echoed in her ears.Stay here and live… or leave and deal with the consequences yourself.That was what he had told her. He showed no sympathy or even try to persuade her,just cold options which she had refused. Now as she walked out of the cold and empty building,she began to reconsider her choices. Had she made the wrong decision?.Her hands trembled slightly as she hugged herself. Everything had happened too fast. Just two days ago, she was worrying about hospital bills and her mother’s treatment. Now she was somehow tangled in the dangerous world of Gabriel West,the most feared mafia boss in the city.It all felt so unreal.She stepped outside the building and inhaled deeply, the air hitting her face. Everywhere was quiet now,there was no one around as Gabriel left with his men.Kimmy looked around helplessly,she

Chapter: chapter five Kimmy was still in shock,she was trying to comprehend everything she just said. It didn't make sense to her. What was a man like Gabriel doing in that area far away from the city,but she didn't dare to ask. Her suspicion has now become true,he was a mafia but not any mafia, the devil's son. Now her life was in danger because she helped him. Kimmy wanted to cry but there was no tears left,besides crying was not going to help her now. She looked at Gabriel as if begging for her life." I..I didn't know who you were.. I'm sorry for helping you. I promise I won't tell anyone about our encounter,but please can you let me out of this?" Kimmy asked him, pleading for her life." Little girl,you don't seem to understand the situation.. I'm not the one who want you dead,you haven't done anything to me yet to make me kill you...but the people who saw you with me want you." Gabriel said as he stared down at her." If they eventually capture you,they would torture you to give them inform

Chapter: chapter four They drove towards the outskirts of the city to what looked like an abandoned house. This further proved Kimmy's suspicion. She immediately let her guard up as the car stopped in front of the house." Where are we?" She asked the man as she looked around her surroundings. They were in the middle of nowhere,the house was surrounded with grassess and there was no sight of any other house in that area. Kimmy had a bad feeling about this. The man got down from the car and began to walk towards the building without looking back at her, Kimmy had no choice than to run after to follow him. Inside the building, Gabriel was seated on a wooden chair seething with rage,he exuded a dangerous aura that made the atmosphere around him cold. His subordinate all stood at the side bowing their head in fear." So none of you could find the gang behind this...you all are useless. I have to do everything myself." Gabriel roared in anger making everyone around to shrink back in fear. He pu

Chapter: chapter three In the morning of the next day, Kimmy was in a hurry to get to work. She had barely up to thirty minutes to get to work,she had already been late to work twice this week already and didn't want to be late again today. Kimmy could already imagine the angry face of Mrs Nora standing at the entrance of the shop. She hurriedly ate her breakfast and ran out of the house,she didn't even stop to respond to her neighbours greetings. The only thought on her mind now was to get to work on time,all order things were secondary to her, including the incident that happened the previous day which she seemed to have forgotten. She was half running and walking to the store which was a thirty minutes walk from her house, Kimmy didn't have enough money to enter a cab cause all the money she had have been spent on her mother's treatment so she had no choice than to run along. She decided to take the route down the alley, pushing back the fear that rose when she remembered the event that

Chapter: chapter two Gabriel layed on the cold floor of the alley,he was covered in his own blood. He tried to move his body but he couldn't. A few moment ago he was driving on the highway oblivious of the cars following him,the next thing he heard was a car crashing into him then they started raining bullets on his car. He managed to crawl out of the car just in time but he wasn't lucky enough as he got shot on his hand. There were multiple injury on his body from the car crash and he was bleeding from his head. He could feel his consciousness slipping through, he needed to get away from here cause they would come to finish what they started and it may take a while for his men to find him,but right now he couldn't even move a muscle. Just as he was already losing hope he heard footsteps coming closer,the person seemed to have noticed him and stopped,just as the person was about to run he quickly called for help." Help...help me...please." Kimmy was shocked to the amount of blood on th

Chapter: chapter forty three The moment Jeff left the Lin residence, the atmosphere inside became chaotic. Clara stood frozen for only a few seconds before panic fully settled in.“What is wrong with him?!” she said as She snatched the divorce papers from her mother’s hand angrily, flipping through them again as if hoping the words would somehow change. But they didn’t. Every page remained the same, official and real.“He can’t divorce me over something this small!”Rose looked at her daughter carefully. “This didn’t start today, Clara.”Clara looked up sharply. “So you’re blaming me too now?”Rose sighed tiredly.“I’m asking what exactly you did to push him this far.”Clara scoffed immediately. “I didn’t do anything.”Rose gave her a look. “A married woman publicly embarrassing herself over another man isn’t ‘nothing.’”“That’s not what happened!”“But it’s what everyone saw.”Clara’s expression twisted with frustration. “Why is everyone acting like I committed a crime?”.“Because your marriage is falling

Chapter: chapter forty two The atmosphere inside the Lin residence was tense long before Jeff arrived. Clara sat restlessly on the couch,l with irritation written all over her face as she vented angrily to her mother.“I’m telling you, Mom, I can’t keep living like this.”Rose sat opposite her quietly, listening while sipping tea. Ever since Clara arrived that morning, she hadn’t stopped complaining.“Jeff has become unbearable,” Clara continued bitterly. “Every single conversation now is about money.”Rose raised an eyebrow slightly. “Well, his company is struggling.”“That’s not my fault!” Clara snapped immediately and crossed her arms tightly. “He complains anytime I buy anything now. Even yesterday he started calculating how much I spend weekly.”Her face twisted in disgust as she continued, “Can you imagine?”Rose looked at her carefully and said,“And what exactly do you expect him to do?”Clara stared at her mother in disbelief. “You’re taking his side?”“I’m being realistic.”Clara scoffed loudly.

Chapter: chapter forty one By the time Clara returned home, she looked like a disaster. Her hair was damp and sticky from spilled drinks, her makeup ruined, and her expensive dress clung awkwardly to her body. But none of that compared to the rage burning inside her.The humiliation at the lounge replayed endlessly in her mind.The way people stared and laughed and also the whispers. And worst of all the way Elias had looked at her cold and disgusted as though she were something beneath him.Clara stormed into the living room and threw her handbag violently onto the couch.“This is all her fault!” Her voice echoed through the house. She paced furiously, her heels striking harshly against the floor.“Ava!” Her face twisted with hatred as she shouted. “Everything is because of that pathetic girl!”The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. To her, Ava had ruined everything,Stolen attention and power. And now even Elias Ward had humiliated her publicly because of Ava.Clara clenched her fists tigh

Chapter: chapter forty The moment Clara reached their table, the atmosphere shifted very obviously. She carried herself with calculated confidence with every step deliberate and every movement designed to attract attention and it did get attention. Several eyes in the lounge followed her immediately.Her dress was tight and revealing far more than elegance required, hugging her figure provocatively. It was the kind of outfit meant to tempt and provoke reactions especially from men. Raymond noticed it instantly and nearly sighed out loud.Married woman behavior, he thought dryly.But Clara didn’t even glance at him because her entire focus was on Elias. She stopped beside him with a bright smile.“Mr. Ward.” she said smiling.Elias barely looked up,his attention remained on the drink in his hand. This slight dismissal irritated Clara immediately but she forced her smile to remain intact.“You probably remember me,” she continued smoothly. “I’m Clara.” but there was Still no reaction.Her smile stiffen

Chapter: chapter thirty nine The soft sound of jazz drifted through the lounge while city lights shimmered beyond the glass walls. Unlike the noisy clubs Raymond usually preferred, this place was quieter and more private. A favorite spot for businessmen and powerful people who wanted peace without attention,the type of place that Elias preferred.Elias sat comfortably on one of the leather chairs while a glass of whiskey rested untouched in his hand. Across from him, Raymond leaned back lazily, looking far more relaxed than usual.“For someone about to join the police force officially,” Elias said calmly, “you seem unusually free.”Raymond grinned immediately. “Enjoying my last days of peace.”Elias shook his head faintly. “You got transferred already?” he asked.“Mm.” Raymond nodded. “The approval finally came through.”“When do you resume?”“Next week.”Elias gave a slight nod. “That fast?” he saidRaymond laughed softly. “You sound disappointed.”“I’m questioning the judgment of the people hiring you.” E

Chapter: chapter thirty eight Clara’s morning began with shouting again.The sound of a glass breaking against the wall still echoed faintly in the living room as she stood with her arms crossed, glaring at Jeff.“You’re unbelievable!”Jeff dragged a frustrated hand through his hair, exhaustion written all over his face.For the past few days, the pressure surrounding his company had become unbearable. Stocks kept on falling,investors were withdrawing, partnerships suddenly hesitant. Ever since Ward Industries pulled out of the deal everything had spiraled faster than he expectedHe barely slept anymore or ate. And Clara instead of helping only made things worse.“You spent almost half a million in one week, Clara!” Jeff shouted in annoyance.She scoffed immediately. “So now you’re counting money in my face?”Jeff laughed bitterly.“Because there’s barely any left to count!”This made Clara’s expression darken instantly.“How dare you speak to me like that?”“How dare you act like nothing is happening?” Jeff s
