With hate in her eyes, Cassandra turned to glare at Vivienne who had turned on the light at the sound of the footsteps,“What the hell did you do?!" She asked in a shrill voice, throwing daggers with her eyes at Vivienne who shrugged and smirked,“Just a little going away gift. I know how much the media loves you" she chuckled.Immediately cameras and microphones were placed in front of them as the media began asking question after question,"Mr Delaney, Miss Cassandra, Mr Morris can you all tell us why you're held up here?”"What allegations have been laid against you?" “Has Mayor Richard regained his freedom and demanded your arrest?" The last question infuriated Cassandra and so she stormed her leg, as she glared at them,"That bastard can never be free! A criminal never goes unpunished!” She exclaimed through gritted teeth."Is that so? So why are you locked up in jail?” another person countered, and Cassandra's face darkened. Andrew nudged her into not saying anything, as it c

He thundered, as his eyes darted around the prison walls, as his eyes landed on the media that had surrounded the place and finally on his son who had a small smile at his father's arrival, Dan Morris glared at Harold,“What's going on here?! What have you lot done with my son?" Harold gulped, his cheeks reddening a little,"Huh… Si-sir…" he trailed, unable to string his words together.He had totally forgotten about Dan's incessant calls and messages, and hadn't imagined that the man would leave the capital to come look for his son. Harold had been hoping to curb the situati

Dan Morris yelled as he stood right in front of Richard, glaring at him. He had heard of all Richard had done, and though they were a little impressive, it gave him no room to talk in that manner to him, clenching his jaw and fists he stared Richard down,“Is it because you're a lost war hero? Does that give you the right to be rude? You're nothing; you must have been something before now, but at this moment, you're nothing! Got that?!” He challenged Richard as he jutted his chin at him,Richard only stood unfazed, as he stared at the man while he barked. Bending his neck to the side, he smiled,“If you say so. But I'm going to ask you to apologize. Afterall you slapped a woman and our police Chief, it's only right that you apologize" Dan Morris immediately burst into laughter, the corner of his eyes twinkling as he gazed at Richard, the dude sure had audacity, he mused,“Are you such a fool or what? You expect me to apologize to her?” He turned to glower at Vivienne as he jabbed his

“Richard Day! You're under arrest for fraud, bribery, and corruption!” Inspector Finn’s words rang out, and Richard leaned back in his chair, unfazed. Slowly, he turned to face the officer. “Finn,” he drawled, “ To what do I owe this pleasure?”“Uhm… A case has been brought against you, and I’m simply here doing my duty,” Finn replied, a hint of nervousness in his voice.‘Is that so?’ Richard raised an eyebrow, and his gaze flicked briefly to his assistant, Benson, whose hand hovered over his waistband, ready to act. With a subtle shake of his head, Richard signaled him to stand down.Sighing, Richard looked around at the officers before focusing on Finn. “What crime did you say has been levied against me?" he asked, voice calm but edged with steel. Inspector Finn swallowed a little before he replied. “You've been accused of misappropriation of funds, bribery, corruption, and various other crimes" He started with a clearer voice, but his confidence wavered as he continued und

They arrived at the prison, and Inspector Finn led Richard inside, with Richard striding in and his hands cuffed.They were headed to Inspector Finn's office when loud siren noises filled the air, and officers straightened their postures as a fleet of six luxurious cars rode into the police compound. The cars came to a stop, with a well-dressed officer hurrying down to open the back door he had come down from,Inspector Finn watched with mouth agape as a woman with long flowing red hair and voluptuous curves came down, wearing high stiletto heels, the aura around her was that of power and authority.As he watched her approach, he shuffled on his feet and gulped, before he greeted her with all the false enthusiasm he could muster.“C-chief, this is a pleasant surprise. You didn't inform us you were coming in" He greeted, trying to smile despite the turmoils in his stomach, the police Chief raised her brows at him before replying snidely,“I didn't know I was to inform you of my itine

Finn shook his head vigorously, closing his eyes tight as he did, mumbling under his breath,“I-I w-was only following orders of the mayor. " Vivienne straightened herself, “You also follow my order! You don't go behind me and execute orders without my permission!”Richard remained impassive, looking at Finn kneeling in front of him. He understood what was going on, it was obvious Finn was just a mere messenger whose hands were tied. “It’s all right, Vivienne. I’ll be fine.” He turned to Vivienne and said calmly.Vivienne swallowed hard, scratching at her temple as she watched Richard. It was as clear as day that the mayor and his daughter were nothing but ambitious but stupid people who didn't mind bringing people down to get to their aim.On the surface, the city of Dalton appeared peaceful and prosperous, but beneath this facade were various dangerous factions engaged in a power struggle. Only Richard’s presence kept these forces from making bold moves against the city. Shou

But then, as she recalled the respectful glances the manager directed at them, understanding dawned on her. Of course—it had to be because of Andrew. He was a Morris, from one of the most prominent families in the capital. Andrew's family name alone must have been enough to completely change their treatment here.Realizing this, Cassie’s eyes sparkled with admiration. Her confusion melted into a profound pride. She looked at Andrew, her lips curling into a smile. “Andrew, I’m so proud of you! It’s all because of you! Only the Morris family can have such an influence!” Andrew gave a smug smile, shrugging as though it was nothing.“Well, being a Morris has its perks,” he replied with a wink. “Enjoy, this is only the beginning. This is nothing compared to all you stand to gain with our marriage and merger”Andrew boasted with a puffed-out chest, causing Harold and Cassie to exchange a glance and beamed widely at themselves.The same thought was running through both their minds: it ha

He asked, straight to the point as he glared at a smirking Vivienne,Vivienne who was looking quite pleased with herself gave a crisp nod as she replied,“Good to see you too, Mayor Harold, or should I say former?" She quipped slyly causing Harold to clench his fists and glare at her irritably,On the other hand, Vivienne was a picture of calmness, although her eyes held deep amusement.“You're in an official environment, I'll advise that you keep your voice down,” Vivienne said coolly as she raised her head to look at him intently. The sight of Harold made her a little sick to her stomach, but she had to stomach it nonetheless,She couldn't understand how one person could be so vile and be surrounded by equally vile people. Was Harold Delaney so blind and stuck up in his nose and ass that he couldn't see the gem that Richard was, or perhaps

It's a pleasure, what can I do for you?" Donald, smiling smugly nodded crisply and said,"Nothing much, just thought I'd stop by and see how things are over here” was his response,Dan Morris quirked his brow up, he knew for certain that was just a flimsy excuse and that Donald was possibly playing at something else.

Cassandra lost all colors on her face, although her jaw and fists were still clenched tightly,Was he threatening her? She silently mused, trying to gauge his expression,It was funny how the table had turned; she had sought Richard out to insult, ridicule him, and gloat in his face, yet he had turned around to do the very same thing that she had planned to do to him. She was seething with anger and humiliation, as someone used to getting her way, Richard's words to her cut deep. She curled her fist again and her mouth as she glared fiercely into Richard's eyes, Still blazing with anger, and wanting to hurt Richard deeply, she sneered as her eyes darted around the whole cell, once again noticing the luxurious life he was living, a life contrary to the one she had hoped and wished for him, she snapped her eyes fo him and smiled sinisterly,“I see that the life you're living here has your brain muddled up, fool. You think yourself smart Richard? A hero?” she spat, still glaring as she

Stop laughing before you choke on your laughter!" Her eyes twinkled a little as she added,“Although, that really won't be a bad idea if you die” “You'd like that, wouldn't you?" Richard retorted with a smirk, as he spared Andrew a glance, who in turn sneered, curling his lips at him, before he strode forward, glaring intently at Richard,“You like to think you're smart, right Richard? You think of yourself as clever?” Getting closer to Richard's face, he snarled as he turned dramatically to Cassandra and spoke loudly,"But the thing is, you're nothing but a lowlife bum, a convict, of which you'll never be anything more, probably less”Walking towards

After the situation at the mayoral office, everyone from Harold to Clinton was quite upset, with Cassandra raging at the humiliation she had gotten,“That foolish man had the audacity to call me a gold digger! I'm going to make him pay!" She swore, snarling at no one as she glared with blazing eyes and curled lips.They had barely made an escape from the maddened crowd, and she had vowed to get back at Richard and Vivienne, someone had to pay for what had happened to her.Snapping her head up, she glared at her fiancé and father and snapped,“I'm going to the prison to visit that lowlife! He's going to get a piece of my mind today; nobody, and I mean nobody, talks to me in that manner and gets away with it!”Harold's brows instantly shot up as he gaped at her,“Do you think that's a good idea, Cassie?” He asked, his voice was laced with concern as he stared at his child,“Someone like you shouldn't be found in a filth like that.
