Mandy's grip tightened on the steering wheel, her aura emitting a burning rage. She turned sharply to the other lane, a rather reckless move for someone who didn't plan to kill herself. Driving herself that day was definitely a terrible idea. Bench's words replayed in her head multiple times and she knew it would stick with her for long. Everything Bench said was to torment her and kudos to him for a job well delivered. Not only that all he said was tormenting, it pissed her off that he was right. How could she be so stupid? Did she think she could hide the truth from Declan forever?She slammed her hand on the steering, honking the horn angrily, prompted stares from people on the street. Increasing the gear, Mandy zoomed off at enormous speed. At the Chief warden's office, the Chief Warden sat before his tray of launch. He was munching on the pork when his phone rang. "Huh?" He looked up at the unknown caller that flashed on his screen with a squinted gaze."Hello..." He said w

"This is Dave blade and I called to demand for the immediate release of Declan King. "The Chief Warden's eyes flashed in shock and darted to Declan. What was going on? He asked himself inwardly."Sir... Uhm. His release won't be possible till the investigation is over." The chief warden blurted before he could stop himself. "What did you just say?"Dave Blade's voice asked sharply."I—uhm..."The Chief Warden stuttered. He can't believe he said that to Mr. Blade. Dave Blade was a renowned elite in the city. He had just recently taken over the position of the foreign affairs unit as their minister. Dave Blade had contacts with every reputable foreigner interested in their city. He was no small name and is held in very high esteem. "Do as you're told, Chief Warden, do not provoke me." Dave Blade warned with a low tone and ended the call. The Chief Warden stood stunned for a moment. What was really happening? First it was Mandy Asher, the top class business boss-lady, and now i

"What a disgrace you have become. I regret the day I took you in!" Mr. Gilbert yelled.Mr. Gilbert sat on an armchair in the Chief Warden's office, his aura emitting rage. "Sir. I am sorry... It's really not what you think." The Chief Warden cried. He was kneeling before his godFather, head bowed and hands clasped on his laps.He looked like a mere servant before his master begging to be spared."You are such a disappointment. And I will make sure you pay for bringing shame to my name!" "Sir-""Shut up!" Mr. Gilbert growled, striking the Chief Warden across his face. The Chief Warden's eyes flashed in shock as he held his face. His godFather had never treated him that way before. He used to be very fond of him and never found fault in anything he did. What changed now?No one knew the reason behind Mr. Gilbert's actions. Mr. Gilbert had received a call from Marshall Jones regarding a certain Declan King. "If they touch a single strand of his hair then you all will be doomed."Ma

Declan turned to leave but saw a car pull up outside at the drive way. He paused to see who it was and it was no other person than Mr. Gilbert."Where is that punk?" Mr. Gilbert yelled, stepping down from his car. Mr Gilbert drew closer and saw who was standing there. He squinted his gaze as he stared at Declan . "You must be—Declan King?" Mr. Gilbert said from a distance holding his two hands together in front of him. "Mr. Gilbert, I presume. It's a pleasure to finally meet your acquaintance.""Oh don't flatter me." Mr. Gilbert waved with a smile. "I'm more honored to meet you, Mr. Declan King. I have heard so much about you."Mr. Gilbert looked past Declan to the house. "Where is that punk? I came here to teach him the lesson of his life. How dare he frame and arrest a man as reputable as yourself?" Mr. Gilbert said with anger. "Not everyone knows their limit, I presume." Declan said humbly."Ignorance is not an excuse. He must kneel before you and apologize!" Mr. Gilbert ins

At the living room of the Williams’ residence, May had entered not too long ago and her mom Clara came down, just seeing her."Oh my darling. You're back" Clara said, rushing to her daughter. "Are you hurt? Did they give you a hard time?" Clara asked, looking all over May's body in search of visible injuries. "I don't want to talk now, mom. Can I go in and wash up first?" May asked, tired. She had gone through so much the past 24 hours and needed the maximum amount of rest she could get."I'm sorry I couldn't get you out sooner, I tried all the connections but I'm glad you're finally out " Clara kissed May's cheek smiling at her daughter sweetly. "Thank you mom. Can I go up now? Thanks." May said ready to escape.Outside, Declan pulled up at William's residence. He stopped by to check if May got home safely. The doorbell blasted as soon May was about to climb the stairs. "Are you expecting anyone?" May asked her mom as Clara walked up to check the door. She had a broad smile pla
