Trent waits as the merchant proceeds to go over the item's functions and disclaimers. Slayde pushes the symbol on the side of the node, and as the panel slides open, the hose extends. The merchant hands the hose to Trent, who watches attentively as Slayde demonstrates the vacuum's usage. Slayde signs to Trent, "Once you pull out the hose, put it where you want, and then turn on the vacuum here."

He pondered the board once more, stroking his somewhat stubbled jaw nicely as he thought about his best course of action. She snorted disdainfully while taking down his points as he eventually settled on "eel," which was placed so poorly that it was only worth three points. She smiled sweetly at him and pointed to the free "t" that he could have used for "exit." She then used that "t" to make up her own word, using the conveniently placed triple word score and getting a handy 39 points for her "smithy."

Shania and I decided on Samuel Turner, a marketing manager at Shania's company. Samuel was younger than Lucille and about six years younger than me. I had gotten to know him through a random dinner event in the past. I had formed a deep impression of him because of his good looks and how smart he was at handling all sorts of situations. Later on, I got to know from Shania that he was also very competent at work. He had managed to get his position as marketing manager within a year of joining the company.

Minus “Is this coffee or motor oil, Phil?” “I’m sorry, Clutch, I would have made a fresh pot if I knew you and Minus were… stopping by. Here let me make…” Phil Blondino tried to stand, but the barrel of Clutch’s gun pointed at his head convinced him to remain seated. Phil’s grease-stained office chair seemed to groan in agony from underneath his bulky frame. “You’re good right there, Phil. I’m just going to sit here and sip my delicious cup of Pennzoil while my good friend, Minus, looks for Cutter’s money.”

The moment I closed the door, Rose's whole vibe changed, and out of nowhere, she scoffed. "Jennifer, you're hung up on Charles, aren't you?"

I didn't respond. Even after picking up Kathy and getting home, his words echoed in my head, leaving me unsettled. Rowan had always liked me? That had to be the biggest joke I'd heard in a while. I did vaguely remember someone with the last name Remington from the class next door in high school. But that boy had been chubby and timid. I think he once asked me a question about homework—said he wanted to get into the same college as me. I'd patiently explained the problem to him, but whatever he'd said back then didn't stick. It disappeared from my mind the moment I turned away.

he continued, stepping closer, “every penny you make will be transferred to my account. Then I will behave well. Do you understand?” His voice hardened. “Now turn. I want to make love to you.” She turned slowly, but not in obedience—in defiance. “I’m not interested,” she said, her voice shaking but firm. “And don’t think in your head that I will give you my hard-earned money. Go and look for a job. I don’t care whether you behave well or not—just get a job and be travelling. I need my peace.” The silence that followed was dangerous. Then he laughed again, darker this time.

Just as I was about to respond, I saw the police crouching in the corner, signaling to me. I took a deep breath. "Alright, I'll transfer the house to you both. We'll go to the property office tomorrow to finalize the paperwork." Laurence eyed me suspiciously. "You're agreeing so easily. Are you planning something?" I gave him a fake smile. "Believe whatever you want." Laurence stared at me for a few seconds, then nodded. "I believe you. But you have to transfer the money to me first." I unlocked my phone and opened my banking app, then handed it to him. "You can enter the bank account number yourself."

"She—" "Betrayed you?" I turned off the recording. "Just like you betrayed me." "Interesting?" Dante knelt on the ground, his body weak, utterly defeated. "I really... have nothing left..." he mumbled. "No," I corrected him. "You still have your life." "Though I don't know how long you can keep it." As soon as I finished speaking, the sound of car engines came from a distance. Two black SUVs drove into the pier, their headlights blinding.

She fumed more seeing Sarah's calm appearance, walked to her, and turned off the gas stove angrily, spoiling Sarah's dish. Sarah frowned, lift her head, looked at Ashley, and raised her eyebrows in questionable gaze, then again turned the gas stove on. "What you and Stefan have done with Ronald's phone, why is it not connecting even when I tried several times, whereas mom can talk to him on the same number?" Ashely again turned off the gas stove irritatingly and annoyed Sarah. Sarah took a deep breath, took the hot spatula from the pan, and swiftly turned towards Ashley; the spatula was almost about to touch Ashley's face if she wouldn't take a few steps back.
