“What do they want this time? Anyways, I'm sure they'll leave when they get tired, I don't have any time at all today."

“They look quite determined though, like they'll stay there till you come out even if it's night. I honestly wonder what rubs through their head, what do they want with the heiress now?" Liam asked me back.

“That's their headache, not ours. They'll leave when they get tired. How's work today by the way?" I changed the topic entirely.

“Everything is going smoothly, I got the best news from you today since I started my company." He smiled.

I only smiled back at him, I've not even done up to half of what he has done for me, Liam is one of my biggest supporters and rock, he deserves all the good things in life.

“You're closed from work right?" I asked him, seeing how relaxed he looked and his loosened tie.

“Yes."

“Good, can you please accompany me to my children's former school? I have one or two things to do there." I asked with a smirk on my face.

    PHOEBEThe second Stephen said he was ex-military, I froze.Ramon blinked beside me, confused and clearly caught off guard. "Wait... what?"Stephen nodded, steady despite the blood staining his shirt. "I served. A long time ago. Special reconnaissance. That’s how I saw him. That’s how I knew."My mouth opened, but no words came out. My mind was racing, piecing things together. The way he’d disappeared so quickly. The calm, the precision. It all made sense now."You fought that guy alone?" I asked, stepping closer.Stephen winced a little, pressing his hand to the side of his stomach. "He had a blade. Got one lucky hit in. But he won’t be hurting anyone ever again."Just then, the front door opened with a quiet creak and Winnie stepped out, still nibbling on a cupcake and humming to herself. She stopped mid-step.Her eyes landed on Stephen, on the blood staining his shirt, the way he leaned heavily against the railing, one hand pressed to his side.Her expression changed instantly."St

    PHOEBEI had just gotten back to my seat, forcing a calm, practiced smile on my face, when I heard a soft voice behind me."Phoebe. Don’t move."I turned slightly, eyebrows raised. It was Stephen. His tone was so calm, so steady, it almost didn’t match the urgency in his eyes."What?" I whispered, barely moving my lips."There's a gun pointed at you," he said under his breath, gaze sweeping the crowd like he was just scanning for a friend.A chill raced down my spine.I laughed nervously because I knew. "Are you joking?"Stephen didn’t blink. "I'm not. I need you to stay exactly where you are. Don’t turn around. Don’t panic. Just breathe."My hands trembled. I tried to still them as I picked up my phone and opened a new message to Ramon.Stephen knows. He says there's a gun pointed at me. He’s going to neutralize the threat.Stephen leaned closer, his voice barely audible over the soft hum of conversation and music. “In thirty seconds, I’m going to move. Just keep talking to Winnie li

    PHOEBEThe music drifted through the backyard like smoke, soft and sweet. My parents’ get-together was in full swing. Fairy lights hung in loops between the trees, casting a golden glow over the patio. People laughed, drank, and danced. For the first time in weeks, maybe months, I felt light again. Safe.I swirled my drink and smiled as Winnie skipped over to me, cheeks flushed."Having fun?" I asked.Winnie laughed, twirling the end of her braid. "Yeah. More than I expected to."I raised an eyebrow. "More than you expected? Why's that?"Her eyes darted across the yard. I followed her gaze and spotted Stephen leaning against the railing, sipping from a bottle of soda and watching the crowd with quiet amusement. I looked back at Winnie, who was now blushing furiously."Oh my god," I grinned. "You're crushing on him.""No, I'm not," she said too quickly."You so are! Your face is pinker than your dress."She groaned and covered her face with her hands. "This is so stupid. I’ve had a cru

    RAMONI didn’t expect the rage to hit me so fast."You killed them," I said, my voice shaking, low and bitter. "You killed every single one of them just so you could fake your death?"Richard smiled like he was talking about the weather. Calm. Unbothered. "They helped me. But help only goes so far, nephew. They might get greedy. I couldn’t risk that."I stared at him, sick to my stomach. "You murdered them. Guards. Inmates. Innocent people. Just to stage your little vanishing act?"He tilted his head. "You think they were all innocent? You think the state hires saints to run prisons? Come on. Don’t be naïve."I clenched my fists so hard, I felt my nails pierce my skin. The heat inside me was almost unbearable. "You’re disgusting."He still didn’t flinch. "I did what I had to."I stepped forward. "Then why are you here? You think I’ll just stand here and do nothing? You think I won’t report you?"That was when he pulled the phone from his coat pocket and calmly turned the screen toward

    RAMONThe phone call came just after sunrise.I was still in bed, the early light creeping through the curtains. My eyes burned from barely sleeping. The ringtone jolted me upright.“Mr. Ramon? This is Deputy Elkins. I'm calling from the station. There has been an incident at the prison. A fire.”I sat up slowly, my hands gripping the sheets like they were the only thing keeping me upright. The room felt colder somehow. “A fire? What kind of fire?”“An explosion, sir. It spread fast. Most of the facility is gone. All the inmates and guards they’re presumed dead.”I froze. My heart pounded against my ribs like it was trying to get out. I pressed the phone tighter to my ear, struggling to breathe. “You’re saying Richard is… gone?”The deputy hesitated. “We can’t confirm individual bodies, sir. The fire was extensive. But… there were no survivors. We’ll need you to come down and sign his death certificate.”I didn’t respond right away.Gone?My uncle… gone?After everything?The silence

    RICHARDThe cold stone slab had long lost its chill, but a different kind of cold settled in my bones as the last footsteps faded. I waited, just to be sure. Silence. Finally, I pushed myself up, my muscles stiff but my purpose clear. This was it. The final act.I walked towards the front of the prison, no more waiting, no more planning in the shadows. Just execution.Two officers were there, leaning against a desk, looking bored. They straightened up when they saw me."Richard, right?" one of them, a burly man with a thick mustache, asked. He had a slight tremor in his voice, a hint of nervousness he tried to hide."That's me," I said, my voice calm, almost too calm. "You received the… package?"The other officer, younger, with shifty eyes, nodded quickly. "Yes, sir. Just as you instructed. All accounted for." He gestured vaguely towards a large, nondescript bag on the floor. "More than enough, actually."I smiled, a genuine smile, though it probably looked unsettling. "Good. Excelle
