Lihat lebih banyakIt's been seven whole months since James had been in jail on remand. He had been unable to secure bail for obvious reasons and he was stuck in a place were luxury was nothing but a dreamy idea. His jailers had told him to count his lucky stars and that at the extent of his crimes, he could only be less safer in the outside world."The prison is here to protect you," the Warden, Max Beaurogard had told him. Max was being sarcastic but when James managed bypassed the verbal cruelty, he realized Max had been telling the truth. In here, he still got shoved around. Power was money and vice versa. In here, he had neither. But at least, he had interacted with several murderers. The fellows hated that he had been a pampered heir, but they seemed mighty satisfied that he was now a worthless piece of shit like the rest of them. All in all, it wasn't too bad. He was facing forty years to life. He imagined he could get used to this.Of course, he laughed bitterly. He could certainly get used to w
7 Months Later Ronica Risconce silently congratulated herself as she stared at the finalized copies of the divorce documents. She had read it many times already, always checking if it was real and not just her fantasy. After eight years of loveless manipulation, she was finally free from James' shackles and Mona's malevolence. She was a Risconce once again, the beloved heiress of the Risconce family; the musical celebrity and genius; and the elevated fiancee of the very much respected Eric Strauss. As soon as the divorce process became official, Eric had wasted no more time in expressing his romantic interests. They had already been very close as orphans. That was until she was adopted by the Risconces and they had been parted by a sea of distance, memories and ambiton. Somehow, Eric's feelings for her had endured the passage of time. Ronica considered that maybe the facts of his long lasting adoration was worth the suffering and torture that she had faced in the hands of James and
Ronica's heart skipped as she missed a note. Was that a gunshot? Nobody even noticed that she had just made a vocal mistake."Ronny!"She turned and saw Eic along with several members of his security detail running towards her. They immediately and effectively blocked her from view of the audience. Eric crouched protectively before her. Patrick was there too as well as her adoptive family."Are you okay? Are you hurt? Do you feel pain anywhere?" He barraged her with questions. Then his gaze traced hers to a hole in the piano's board."Was that bullet for me?" Ronica found herself numbly asking."I put eyes everywhere. The shooter has been apprehended. Come on, let's get you somewhere calmer."Throwing his coat around her, Eric personally escorted her off the stage."Help! Help! I'm bleeding!" came a distant wail."I think someone was shot," Ronica blurted out."The security committee is actively deescalating the situation," Eric assured Ronica.***The news headlines flared.R.

On the backstage of the magnificent hall which was already packed to maximum capacity, unprecedented chaos was ensuing. Even though several specialized staff had been hired to watch out for hitches, leave it for James and Mona to somehow find a way to mess things up. In her own dressing room, Ronica paced around, more furious than she had ever been in a while. On one of the sofas, Eric was relaxed watching her. He had already tried to calm her down once but she had gotten up again to resume the pacing. He figured that it was better for her to let all the anger out before the concert began in earnest. If he was her, he'd be angry too. At different times, James and Mona had attempted to buy all the top seats at the venue with the obvious idea of exposing Ronica to ridicule on her big day. Luckily, Eric had foreseen that and had booked all the topseats in advance so that any interested person could buy them straight from him instead. Eric also had cameras positioned in strategic places
Patrick Simmons was a happy old man when he entered his car and assured his security detail and the rest of his personal staff to meet him at the concert hall. He had had no chance of seeing his daughter in law since the time James told him that she was pregnant. He had promised himself that he was
"James is diabolical but still soft in many ways. He pushed his brother off a cliff yet can't even get rid of a vermin the likes of Ronica," Mona seethed to herself, boiling over with rage.She was standing in a dark dilapidated room and front of her, paying attention to her vile spoken words, were
Ronica's meeting with the investors was a huge success and they were all eager to see her rendition come Saturday. As the day drew nearer, she grew more giddy with excitement. When the meeting was over and she had spoken with her crew. Tickets for the concert were sold out. She slid into the back o
For the first time in eight years, Ronica was truly happy. She had fully recovered from her coma. Eric was ever so kind to her. And her concert preparations were making headways. "That's a wrap guys. We'll be having our dress rehearsal next," she called out to her crew as they ended the evening reh
