After I finished dressing, my eyes landed on the handkerchief sitting on the dresser, washed, folded, like it had never been wrapped around my neck last night.

Ethan’s handkerchief.

I picked it up, holding it between my fingers. My mind went back to the sound of bone cracking, the man’s scream, and that smile Ethan gave me right after—cold, sharp, like it was meant to stay in my head.

What if he was the one who killed him?

I shook my head. No. That was insane. Maybe the man really did take his own life.

“Why are you staring at that handkerchief like it’s

  • Fat Ugly, No More : Revenge is My Score   The Reynolds Meeting

    I sat at the back of the car, staring out the window, but I wasn’t really seeing anything. My mind kept going back to one thing, circling around it like a restless fly.That CCTV camera.Was Ethan acting like nothing happened because he hadn’t checked the footage yet?Or had he seen it already and was just pretending, playing some quiet game I didn’t know the rules to?I couldn’t tell. And that was the problem.The drive felt longer than it should, even though it probably wasn’t. After a while, the car slowed

    As his lips pressed against mine, my eyes flew wide open in pure shock. For a moment, my mind couldn’t process what was happening. His scent, his warmth, his sudden boldness, it all blurred into one overwhelming jolt. Then, just as abruptly as it began, he pulled away, his weight collapsing onto me.It took me several stunned seconds, maybe even minutes before I found the strength to shove him off. My legs moved on instinct, carrying me upright and I was shocked He was sprawled on the couch, completely motionless.My fingers brushed against my lips, and an angry glare burned in my eyes.How dare he?The heat in my chest boiled into fury, my hands itching to slap him, to make him feel even a fraction of the violation I felt. But then… I noticed his stillness. Not calm, but almost too still. His chest rose and fell slowly, his face slack.He’s passed out.With a huff of frustration, I grabbed my bag, ready to storm out of this place and never look back. But then… something tugged at

  • Fat Ugly, No More : Revenge is My Score   Good News?? Bad News??

    When my eyes blinked open, the first thing I saw was the man on the floor, curled up and groaning, his face twisted up in pain. Ethan was just standing there, looking at him like he was deciding what to do next. Then, without even a word, he slammed his foot down on the man’s hand, the same one that had been gripping the kitchen knife earlier.The man’s scream shot up into a loud, ugly cry.“I told you I’d break it,” Ethan said, almost too calmly. “How dare you touch what’s mine?”He stomped again, harder this time.I froze and my chest tightened as I was surprised with what I was seeingThen he turned to me and smiled. Only, it wasn’t really a smile, it was the kind that made my stomach drop and my skin prickle.“I thought I told you to close your eyes.” He said The man rolled on the floor, clutching his other hand now. From the way it hung, I didn’t even have to guess what Ethan had done to it.“This isn’t over,” Ethan muttered, stepping closer. His fist came up like he was about t

  • Fat Ugly, No More : Revenge is My Score   The Attack

    I was seated in the front passenger seat next to Ethan, who was behind the wheel."So, where are we headed?" I asked."You specifically said you wanted us to spend the night together," he answered, keeping his gaze fixed on the road."So, we are actually going to spend the night together?" I questioned, and he let out a scoff."How did you figure out the girl isn't Skylar?" he asked, sidestepping my question."Well, it turns out her sister works for me, so I connected the dots," I replied, then there was a pause. "But why is your father so keen on you marr

    I simply stood there observing the two brothers staring each other down, then I turned back to the guests who were watching the scene with expressions of confusion.“Um, I think I need to step outside with Kael for a moment,” I quietly said, but I was aware Ethan could hear me.“You heard that, right?” Kael said in a kind of way as if he were trying to intensify the already tense situation, and Ethan shot him an even sharper glare as Kael tightened his grip on my hand.“We really don’t want to create a scene here,” I repeated softly, even though a scene had already unfolded, then Ethan turned to me for a few seconds before returning to his previous seat, and Kael gently led me outside the room.Once we were outside, he pulled me to a secluded spot, and I slowly removed my hands from the grip he had on them.Then there was silence.“Why did you do that?” I questioned, breaking the silence .“I should be asking you the same thing,” he replied, and I raised an eyebrow.“What did I do?” I
