All Chapters of Delusional Revenge: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

The door of the Blackhood study cracks open from the force of a boot. The silence in the house shifted. Jane Blackwood could only watch as the scene unfolded. Two police officers surged into the room. They pinned her father, Luke Blackhood against his massive oak desk."Luke Blackwood, you are under arrest for corporate fraud and embezzlement," one officer said. The words sounded unreal to Jane. Her father couldn't hurt a fly, let alone steal money. Luke’s expensive suit crumbled under the grasp of the officers. His eyes were filled with bewilderment. “This is a mistake! I have done nothing wrong! Jane, call the lawyer, now!” he pleaded. Another figure enters the room before Jane can move, his shadow stretching long and menacing across the polished floor. It was Michael Curry, her father’s best friend, his business partner, the man who shared countless holiday dinners at their table.

She stepped into the building under the guise of misplacing her purse which needed to be found.Michael was in the hall, watching TV. He hadn't had a good sleep after Kate left. “I'm sorry about how I reacted last night,” Kate started. “I let the pressure of the deal you asked me to secure get to me.
