STREET KING: ASHLEY LOCKWOOD Chapter 77 - Seeds planted
“I need to have a word with you, “ Mr Ralph said to Archie when he finally took his eyes away from Bailey who had been looking at him suspiciously. “Alright then, what do you have to say? “ Archie said with a serious expression and in a calm tone, but Mr Ralph could tell very easily that he was intentionally trying to pull his legs. “Privately, “ Mr Ralph answered in the same serious manner, he was not in any mood for any games at this time and just wanted to get it over with, but then even if his plan worked and Archie gave him back everything he had lost he would still have to continue to keep up with the guy for only God knows how long, nonetheless at that very moment this Rocky plan was the only plan he could think of and he was very close to being desperate. Archie turned to face Baily and held her hand with both his hands for a moment then nodded to her with a smile as if to assure her that everything was fine before he began to walk away with Mr Ralph. Bailey was very distu
STREET KING: ASHLEY LOCKWOOD Chapter 78 - More suspicions
"But wait, " Bailey said again after they had left the building and had been walking for a while, "who exactly is he? What's your business with him? " she had tried to just ignore it and take it out of her mind but that proved to be extremely difficult, perhaps because of how the man had spoken to her as if she did not know the man she was walking with, as if she did not know Archie. And perhaps that is what she was really afraid of, she dreaded she thought of such a thing that one day she would find out that everything she knew or thought she knew about Archie, that everything about him which she thought to be true was nothing but a huge lie, if that day ever came she was not sure she would be able to live with herself. "I told you not to worry about it, " Archie said again, but would not let it rest, and his hesitation to tell her did not make her feel any less worried or concerned, on the contrary it made her want to know what happened even more so she continued pestering him.

STREET KING: ASHLEY LOCKWOOD Chapter 79 - Saddening News
Ryder woke up in a good mood. He took a hot shower and got ready for school, styling his hair in his signature way. The way that made the girls swoon. It seemed like he was going to have a good day as he absolutely liked that. That was... until he was on his way down the stairs. He heard his father speaking to someone in his office which was to the right at the foot of the stairs. He wanted to keep walking towards the kitchen because he was starving and he wanted to perfect his morning with his favorite cereal. But as soon as he heard Archie's name, he paused and took quiet steps towards the office door that was slightly open. He leant against the wall and listened to his father's work. "I don't want him to keep working at those restaurants. He is not supposed to be doing that. He is my son," his father, Marshall, said. "But he wants to be independent. Have you considered that?" Someone who Ryder recognized to be Simon spoke and his father let out a huff of breath. "He can be worki
STREET KING: ASHLEY LOCKWOOD Chapter 80 - Wicked plans.
Ryder, River and Meg sat together in the living room staring at their father with unreadable expressions on their faces. "What did you just say?" Ryder asked in a quiet voice. This was his worst nightmare coming through. It was his father saying the very worst thing he had imagined. In fact, he had not even imagined this. In all of his bad thoughts, he had not imagined that his father would do this. "You heard me the first time, Ryder," his father, Marshall said, eyeing him carefully. "Well we need you to say it again so we know we did not hear wrong," River said. Meg hit him in the side so he would not speak to their father in that tone. He was already making a bunch of rash decisions and she did not want him to make worse ones just because he did not like the tone with which River spoke to him. "Archie will be taking over as the CEO and head of the Consortium," he repeated the words that had been a bombshell to the three of them earlier. Even though they had heard it before, it st

Archie walked through the tall glass doors of the consortium, it was a public holiday so the place was quieter than usual. People around him turned their heads, whispering and glancing his way, clearly curious about the newcomer.A man walked in his direction, one he quickly recognized. He was dressed in a dark suit."Morning," Simon said, giving Archie a friendly nod. "Follow me, please."Archie cocked a brow but responded with a nod then followed him toward the elevator. The ride up to the top floor felt longer than it was. Once they reached the top floor, Simon gestured toward a set of double doors. "This is where we'll start."Archie stepped out into the corridor, looking around at the various rooms and departments. "So, what does each department here do?"Simon began to walk him through the area. "On this floor, we have the administrative offices and the planning rooms. Over here, we handle strategic development and external relations. This site is for internal communication and
STREET KING: ASHLEY LOCKWOOD Chapter 82 - Getting Into the Fold
Ryder walked through the lobby of the company, his anger fuming with each step overhearing snippets of conversation. “Have you heard about Archie? He’s making quite an impression,” one employee said.“Yeah, they’re calling him a rising star around here,” another responded.Ryder’s jaw tightened. He had expected Archie to be a big player, but it seemed his brother was getting more attention than he had anticipated. Ryder approached the reception desk.“Hi, I’m here to see my father, Marshall,” Ryder said, trying to keep his tone neutral.The receptionist glanced up from her computer. “And your name is?”He blinked back, surprised at the question he was certain Archie didn't need to introduce himself. “Ryder,” he said, gritting his teeth.She nodded, picking up the phone to notify Marshall. “Mr. Marshall, your son Ryder is here to see you.”Marshall’s voice came through the intercom, “Send him up.”Ryder took the elevator to Marshal's office, his mind still simmering with annoyance.

STREET KING: ASHLEY LOCKWOOD Chapter 83 - Transfer Student.
Bailey took a deep breath as she pushed open the heavy doors of the school. The hallway buzzed with the usual chatter rolling off the walls as the lockers clanged open and shut, laughter echoing everywhere. She tugged at the hem of her skirt, an unconscious gesture she did whenever she felt the stares. And she felt them today, more than usual. Eyes followed her as she walked, whispers and snickers directed towards her. Normally, she’d shrug it off. She’d been the subject of gossip for as long as she could remember. It came with the territory of dating Archie Blackwood, the school's golden boy. But today felt different. Bailey squared her shoulders and marched down the hallway, she wanted to get to the class quickly and rest her head. She wasn’t healed fully, and she was supposed to be resting at home. But missing school for a week and more wasn’t good for a scholarship. She used her hair to cover the better part of her face as she spotted them. Lily, Taylor, and Ann—the school's sel
