Jack was still in the confusion of what he should do or not, there was a fair chance that Rebecca would definitely try to contact Anna and Dottie in his absence.Or worse ….to harm them….so there was no way that he could leave them there all alone by themselves.Nor can he leave his mother without any support, because he has seen that not only his daughters, but Rebecca was not afraid to hurt his mother too, as she has no moral left with her and he was quite sure about it.And Amy was indeed there to take good care of his family and she indeed does a good job in doing so, but that doesn't mean that he can leave everything on her and put the entire weight of taking care of his family and their protection on her shoulders.Because no matter how brave she was and how much dedicated she was towards his family, he can not completely trust her, as he has already seen the repercussions of blind trust on someone and he wasn't going to repeat the mistake ever again.Thinking this he has decide
Megan's voice carried a sense of urgency as she laid out the next steps of their plan.She knew she had to rush everything, if she wanted herself to be saved from getting caught, or else Jack had always been smart enough to catch anyone… Even though he is a complete stranger to them! Then here, he was already familiar with her and knew very well. Therefore, hiding something from him was going to be tough and with this thought she finally spoke;"Right now! In a sense, we have already started the core mission, and from now on, we have to stay in character at all times," she declares, her tone was firm and authoritative to some extent.She turns her attention to Jack, her gaze unwavering. "From now, I will need to assimilate into the high society, and what do you know, the invitations have already begun to pile up."With a smile, she gestured towards the stack of envelopes laid out on the side table, all in different pastel hues with metallic accents.She continued,"You will come wit
Time has a very simple phenomenon of its own, that is, it can never stop for a living thing… and those who believe that time stops for the dead are extremely wrong, since it doesn't stop for them as well…. it's just that they are not alive anymore, to experience the flow of time.But even though the love and affection Jack once had for Rebecca had died in his heart, time had not stopped there. Instead, it had started to rush with even more intensity, carrying the anger and disgust for her in the same place where he had made the grave for that once- existing love.Thinking all this, he sat in his room, the early morning light filtering in through the curtains as he sipped on a cup of coffee. It was early morning on a Sunday, and Megan had arrived with him to Aspenhurst just a few hours ago.Although Megan was quite eager to accompany him home, he had asked her to wait until evening before meeting everyone. And right now, he himself was waiting for the moment when the girls would wake u
Jack's heart raced with concern as he reached out to steady Amy, and he could feel the rush of adrenaline coursing through his veins as he instinctively pulled her towards him, preventing her from falling. The prospect of her falling and injuring herself because of his carelessness caused a wave of panic to rise in his heart, amplifying the intensity of his actions.Every muscle in his body tensed as he tightened his grip around Amy, making sure she remained upright and unharmed. His senses were on high alert, taking note of the slightest shift in her balance, and that's why his heart was racing. Amy, for her part, had a completely different reason for her heartbeat which was determined to defeat a racing car. She seemed taken aback by the suddenness of their collision, and her usual confidence had been replaced by a sudden bout of shyness. In an effort to regain her balance, she felt her own hand gathering the fabric of his shirt and clutching it, but she stopped herself just in t
The collision that happened was so sudden that both of them were unable to react for a few moments, in fact, they didn't even realize that they had collided with each other, the only thing that happened momentarily was the fact that there was no discomfort in that moment.Everything was at such ease that for a few moments, Jack didn't even realize that he was holding Amy in his arms, firmly and flush against his chest, feeling perfectly comfortable in this position without giving any second thought to the circumstances.In fact, the only thing that he was feeling at that moment was the rush of his heartbeats, suggesting that a moment of delay could have caused a fatal accident.And in all those thoughts he was so lost that he has entirely forgotten that he was supposed to let go of her after she has become stable on her own feet.But no… he had not considered any of these things… in fact, he had almost no consideration about any of these, until he heard her voice interrogating about w
Amy left for the kitchen, after seeing Jack and Anna's reunion as a smile danced on her face.She had always been so happy after these types of sweet and cozy moments between a family… be it her own or someone else's.And here! Here, she was already too dedicated to this family… as she had already started feeling protective towards Anna and Dottie, as well as Helen.She had somehow started to fit herself in this family, but she was still quite conscious of that line of propriety; where she knew that no matter how much she loved seeing these heartfelt moments in this family and how much she really liked to be here, this was not her family and she could not be here forever.So it was better that she herself kept some distance, and with this thought, she started with the preparations for the breakfast, knowing that now, Jack was also going to stay and the girls have finally got their surprise, so they should also have some good food too! While the breakfast was being prepared, the aroma
Everything was going so smoothly, that for a moment, Jack was baffled how he could even be so lucky. He remembered clearly that ever since he had married Rebecca, he did not get a single day where he could have eaten his breakfast so peacefully.But today, everything felt so satisfying, so peaceful– that for a moment, he became fearful that he might be the one to jinx it.This was when he remembered that he had to go to the lawyer regarding the filing of the custody case.And with a gentle smile, he carefully lifted Dottie from his lap and settled her into her high chair, ensuring she was comfortable before addressing the rest of the family. He knew that no matter how dearly he was enjoying the moment, he had to leave so that he could return early and complete the rest of the tasks before leaving for his mission."Please enjoy your breakfast, my ladies," he said with an exaggerated bow, his eyes crinkling with affection as he glanced at Anna and Dottie. The sight of their smiles war
Jack eanedy in the worn leather armchair, his expression grave as he glanced towards Andres Mortimer before speaking. It was time to tell them the truth, and trust that he would be able to give him some valuable information in return."Of course, you know from first hand experience that the drug cartel is not what it seems." Jack began, his voice low and urgent. "But while I have been away and you have been in hiding, something has been going on here, right under our noses. I have looked into the recent operations of the drug cartel, trying to uncover their operations, and what I have found... it's not looking very well."Mortimer's eyes narrowed as he said this, but he quickly composed herself, his expression unreadable as he waited for Jack to continue."I have discovered that in just the past week or so, the Venom and Ravens factions have merged under the control of a new leader… known as Dominic." Jack explained, his voice tinged with frustration. Andres frowned;"But Dominic…
