I’ll be coming for him tomorrow Jason can have another day off.

Once put away we head home. I wave goodbye to Hudson and Bailey and walk with dad.

he places his hand on his chest, feigning confidence. "Conceded much?" I ask him boldly, cutting his sentence off and leaving my fear in the dust. He chuckles deeply causing my heart to clench, uncomfortably. My father is dead in front of me, a bullet wound to his head and here I am, laughing with a strange, 7-foot man who shouldn't be in my house. "Well baby, I'm death, nice to meet you," I know it was dumb, but I broke into laughter. "Yeah, and I'm Demeter now get out before I call the cops," I glance back over at my father as he lies in a pool of his blood.

Laura Dickens, Chad's assistant, knocked on the door and said. He asked, "Who is it?" "It's Ms. Nancy Stanton, representing Mr. Larkin of Bluum Corp," Laura replied. As soon as they heard her name, everyone in the room, except for Ariel, couldn't hide their displeasure. Janice crossed her arms and coldly sneered, "Who is she to represent Jayson? Get her to fuck off!" Laura turned to look at Chad awkwardly. Janice had a fiery temper, yet he had always kept his cool.

"They say your dad starved because of you, and now you play the grieving child!" I was inconsolable until Chester came and led me away. He took care of everything for the funeral. However, haunted by memories of a previous life, I grabbed his arm, my voice shaking: "Promise me, no matter what you dream about my dad, you won't follow his words."
