Inside Jamal’s Office…. The moment they stepped inside the office, Victoria turned and glared at Jamal. She didn’t care that he was the CEO and gestured towards the visitor chair.“Sit!”Then she went and settled on the chair reserved for him while cradling Sophie in her arms.Jamal let out a frustrated sigh before walking over to the visitor’s chair and sitting down. He knew better than anyone to argue with his mother. Behind him, Raphael let out a snicker while Vicky smacked his hand playfully.“What? It’s funny.” he said, laughing.Vicky glared at him and he finally stopped laughing.Victoria folded her arms and fixed Jamal with a piercing stare. “Now, talk!” Jamal opened his mouth to explain, but Victoria immediately raised a hand, cutting him off.“You know what? Don’t bother,” she turned to Raphael. “Rapahael, you talk. I know this ungrateful brat of a son won’t tell me the whole story if I let him do the talking. So you talk. And don’t even think about leaving any details b
The Next DayThe sound of heels clicking sharply against the marble floor could be heard all through Hale conglomerates. The very same sound all the employees were very much aware of.Heads turned in almost every direction as the glass doors opened, revealing a woman who could command attention without uttering a single word.Victoria Hale.She was elegance personified, draped in a perfectly tailored ivory dress that clung in all the right places. A string of pearls rested on her neck, her makeup pristine, not a hair out of place in her sleek updo. She looked like a queen descending into her kingdom.All the employees rose immediately, bowing their heads with respectful greetings.“Chairwoman Hale, welcome.”Victoria barely acknowledged them, her sharp eyes scanning the lobby as if searching for prey. Her painted lips curled in disdain when she failed to find the person she was looking for.“Chairwoman my ass. Where’s that ungrateful son of mine?” She demanded, her voice echoing thro
“You've been sitting here for almost two hours now. Don’t you think it’s time you went home and got a rest?” Raphael said for what like the hundredth time that evening, running a frustrated hand through his hair.Nearly three hours had passed since they returned to the hospital, and not once had Jamal left Ashley’s side.He sat in the chair beside her bed, holding her fragile hand tightly, as though the moment he let go, she would disappear.“I’m not tired right now. I’ll leave when I feel like I need to rest,” Jamal replied, his voice carrying a sense of finality that told Raphael there was no point arguing.Raphael groaned, running another frustrated hand through his hair. “Come on, man. You can’t keep doing this to yourself. It’s not your fault this happened to Ashley. There’s no way you could have known someone was going to try to hurt her. Besides… do you really think this is what Ashley would have wanted if she were awake right now?”Jamal didn’t move an inch, his gaze fixed ent
The police station was only a few blocks away from the Benneth mansion, so after about twenty minutes of driving, Jamal finally pulled up in front of the building.The moment he stepped into the lobby, the entire station fell silent.The silence was so thick that one could almost hear the faint flutter of a fly’s wings. After all, the man standing before them was no ordinary person.The Hale family’s influence extended not only in the business world, but in powerful circles most people could never imagine.The commander in charge of the station immediately hurried over to greet him. “Welcome, young master,” he said with a respectful bow. “This way.”Without wasting any time, he turned and led them down a narrow corridor.The lights overhead flickered as they walked deeper into the station, taking several turns until the surroundings began to feel less like a police facility and more like a hidden underground bunker.After a few more moments, they finally stopped in front of a massive
All Jamal could see was red.The red burned brighter when he slammed down on the accelerator, pushing through 160km/h. The car shot down the highway like a missile, weaving through traffic and overtaking vehicle after vehicle.Horns blared behind him. Tires screeched as startled drivers swerved out of his way. Traffic lights became nothing more than streaks of red and green flashing past the windshield. But Jamal didn’t slow down. He just drove, his mind already thinking of the thousand ways he could deal with Vanessa.After what felt like forever, the car finally screeched to a halt in front of an old mansion on the estate. Jamal looked through the windshield just as several police cruisers pulled into the driveway.He didn’t waste another second and jumped down from the car. Raphael followed after him.The estate was already swarming with police officers. Some secured the front entrance while others spread out around the perimeter, sealing off every possible escape route.A detectiv
That Same Evening A Few Hours AgoCole was sitting on the balcony, browsing through his phone when he saw a mysterious black sedan pulling up to a stop in front of the driveway.His brows furrowed and he was about to dial the security team when the driver door flew open and Vanessa stepped out. Without bothering to even close the door, she stormed into the mansion.Within moments, she burst into the balcony, sobbing as her hand trembled with fear.“Hey, sweetheart. What happened?” Cole asked, his voice laced with worry.But Vanessa couldn’t bring herself to speak. Instead she broke down into uncontrollable sobs the moment she reached him.Cole quickly held her trembling hand. “Talk to me, Nessa, what's wrong? You’re scaring me.”Vanessa finally looked up to meet his gaze. With trembling hands, she forced the words out. “I…I did something really terrible, Dad.” she mumbled, her voice filled with fear.Cole frowned. “What did you do?”Tears streamed down her cheeks uncontrollably as sh
