Can you imagine a situation, where you managed to get your hands on the 50 carat vivid blue diamond you had been dreaming of for years?But, unfortunately, your servant stupidly throws the diamond into the river like a worthless pebble.That is Jackson Mitchell's situation right now. He is so shocked with a gaped mouth, finding it hard to believe the ladies’ testimonies.As soon after he salvages his sanity, he immediately rushes out of the house while ranting with an awry confusion.“Why the hell did they throw her out?”Once he gets outside, he finds three servants relaxing, squatting on the edge of the driveway on the left side of the house near a cabin for a workshop.They look so engrossed in conversation, holding cups of coffee and smoking cigarettes. Their carefree attitude only makes Jackson Mitchell even more frustrated.He approaches them with heavy quick steps that his fat belly starts shaking up and down. The three servants realize the possibility of an incoming disaster.O
“I don’t care what you did with this lowly whore! I’m asking you! Why the hell did you kick Naomi out of my house! You’ve been only at home for a week, yet you’ve already ruined a year-worth of campaign!”Jackson isn’t holding back in venting out his frustration. Morgan is now rubbing his red cheek, looking confused, still oblivious about what made his father so angry.This spoiled son doesn't know the situation and struggles of his father all this time. He doesn't understand how difficult it is to compete in the gubernatorial election independently against people who have the support of political parties.“Naomi?” Morgan mumbles with confusion.“I am only who I am today thanks to the support of the people who funded my campaign. And they all revolved around her late mother, you know that? It was her mother who paid your tuition since high school. Even for your college, she had paid everything beforehand!” Jackson explains it impatiently, with a desperate face painted by anguish.Only
Something Jackson hasn’t realized yet, his son is actually dating a third grade high school girl who is going to graduate in two months.Girls at her age, it’s hard to predict what they are going to do when they are so broken like this. While Jackson is still staring blankly at the crowd with a pale face, the girl kicks his crotch.The previous three servants, who are still there in front of the cabin, simultaneously show their painful expression.“Ewwww!!!”Jackson kneels down, holding the excruciating pain in his nuts. And the girl, she is now running away while asking for help.“Please! Help me! I was raped! The Governor’s son has raped me!”She stumbles a few times, and then crawls toward the crowds. She is lying, for sure. But her terrible state, that pale terrified face, anguish and desperation, they are not fake at all.She is so pretty yet skinny, looking fragile that easily invites people’s sympathy. A kindhearted middle-aged lady approaches her while taking off her long fur
- Let me take you back to approximately two hours ago, when Thomas was being taken to one of Meelwent police stations. -This is not the Drada police headquarters, only a branch office of the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Meelwent.It doesn’t look too busy, because Meelwent is the district with the lowest crime rate in Drada, not a suitable place for police officers who expect to rise quickly.It is safe to say that Thomas' case has the potential to be the biggest case they will ever handle, and those police officers are certainly looking so excited right now.“Gabriel! Get out and tell everyone we just caught a big fish!”“Oh, sure!”That officer named Gabriel rushes out of the car, and runs excitedly. But then, he stops and looks back, calling his partner who is going to take Thomas out of his car.“Hey, Kevin! Be careful with that man! You never know what that guy can do in that situation!”“Just be quick!”To be treated like a big criminal, Thomas can only put o
Officer Scott looks so curious. He takes out the bullets from the loader one by one, and indeed the loader is still at its maximum capacity.But still, these two officers look confused about what Thomas is trying to convey with his argument. And Thomas realizes their confusion.“Give me a break!” Thomas continues underestimating them with a funny look. “You don’t realize what’s wrong with the gun! Yet, you still act like the big shots in front of me!”“So what if the loader is still full?” Officer Scott inquires, his face looks irritated.“That son of the Governor, didn't he accuse me of firing my gun to scare him?” replies Thomas rhetorically. “Now you see it for yourselves, I haven’t used the gun yet! It's clear that he was lying with his accusations.”He closes his argument with a silly chuckle, which only provokes those two officers’ irritation.Now they know how ignorant they have been so far. But their arrogances are too big for their pockets to hide. There’s no way they would ju
This Lothario has always seen himself superior to Thomas who is just the son of a farmer. Of course, the mocking tone coming from Thomas enrages him.But he can’t refute it, because what Thomas said was true. Not wanting to look too embarrassed, he shows a nonchalant smile, and walks away. But…“Hey!” Thomas calls. “You’ve been so kind to bring me this food. Can’t you take off these handcuffs on my hands? How am I going to eat these French fries?”Lothario turns back. He looks so annoyed. But then again, he was told to help Thomas eat without taking off the handcuffs.He comes to Thomas, picks a piece of the French fries from its cup, and then leans his hips on the table near Thomas.“Sorry! I can’t help you with the cuff, but I can help you eat these potatoes,” he offers.Thomas scrunches his face.Lothario offers again by drawing that one stick of French fries to Thomas’ mouth. “Come on! For old time’s sake! This is the least I can do!”“I’m not that hungry,” Thomas declines.“Sigh!
He gently holds Naomi’s hand, and then changes his cunning grin with a charming solemn smile.“It’s okay! You don't need to worry about it!”He gazes straight into Naomi’s eyes with a melancholy face, acting like a genuine prince who has just found his destined princess.Somehow, it is effective to cause Naomi’s cheeks blushing. She looks shy, and this is enough to convince Lothario that his effort has bore its fruits.And so…“You seem to be in a hurry! If you don't mind, I could help you with your business here, and maybe afterward, we could go out for a drink,” he offers.Truth to be told, Naomi is looking embarrassed not because she likes him. Instead, she feels uncomfortable after putting herself as the guilty one, and doesn’t dare to respond rudely to this man's invitationShe pulls her hand back and declines his offer politely. “Sorry! I already have a boyfriend, and I actually came here for him.”Soon, noticing the elevator doors are open, she gives him an awkward smile before
He accepts Naomi’s smartphone with mixed feelings. To make things even worse for him, Jackson Mitchell has heard his shouting too.[Whom I’m talking to now?]The voice on the phone sounds heavy and dark. The fat cop’s face is now slowly painted with fear. Clearly, the Governor is upset by something.“Sir! It’s me! Reuben Webb!”[It’s you, Reuben? I bet you already know who that girl is!]“I do!”[Then, why the hell did you shout at her that way? Have you forgotten how much money Adam Saunders has poured into our police department?]“But sir! I can’t just…”[I heard it, Reuben! I heard everything you just said to her! Regardless of her situation, it’s not your place to call a respectable girl like her a noisy bitch! Want me to put an end to your career?]“Apologize, sir!”He, who previously acted tough like a man with power, is now becoming a “yes man”, only repeating “yes sir” and “understand sir” while bowing his head.However, while Jackson Mitchell is lecturing him over the phone,
