"Get the car! She is having trouble breathing!" Melissa yelled at Miguel.Miguel got up and ran outside to get a car to the front. He got in and started the engine, but there was no fuel in the car. He had completely forgotten that all three cars they were left with had no fuel."Fuck!" he cursed and got out of the car.He could spot two of Rex's cars and Ryan's in front of the house.He ran back into the house and found Chelsea still having trouble breathing."Did you bring the car?" Melissa asked."All three cars do not have fuel," he replied and ran to the office and began knocking and twisting the doorknob."Rex! Rex! Rex!" he kept yelling.Inside the office, Rex could see the doorknob moving, forcing him to turn his phone to the surveillance.He could see Miguel knocking at the door as if possessed while Chelsea was on the floor gasping and holding her chest.He twisted his mouth and raised his eyebrows."Is there a problem?" Ryan asked."Nothing, let's get down to business," Rex
The ambulance finally arrived and took Chelsea to the hospital for observation after she was stabilised. Both Melissa and Miguel accompanied her while Rex and Ryan went on with their meeting.Finally, they concluded with their meeting. "My lawyer will go through everything and I will call you," Ryan said as he walked to the car."Take all the time you need," Rex replied and thanked him for showing up.Ryan waved and drove off, passing Selena who was just entering the yard. She stopped the car, staring at him as he waved.She quickly drove in and walked up to Rex."What's going on? Was that Ryan? And was that ambulance from here?" she asked."Yes and yes," Rex replied. "How was your shopping trip?" he asked."Great until I got here. What's happened?" "Don't worry about Ryan, he and I were just talking business," he explained and walked back into the house.Selena ran after him, "How do you know Ryan and what about the ambulance?""You ask a lot of questions but if you should know, yo
Chelsea looked away, irritated. The beetle dung was getting under her skin and it was starting to itch."Oh my god, honey, that's generous of you," Selena jumped up in excitement, giving him a long kiss.Chelsea felt like vomiting but she held it together, her eyes glued on the couple."That's very generous of you, Mr. Grayson," the director thanked him."You can go and get your accountants ready," Rex ordered. "I will pay before leaving this place."Of course, of course, I am going to make all the arrangements," the director said and walked away."I do not need your fucking money!" Chelsea yelled, her eyes watery.Rex turned to face her with a smile on his face."The three of you do not even have a coin to your names but here you are acting all mighty," he laughed. "One day your pride will choke you," he warned."My bills are fucking none of your business. How I pay them should not poke your ass!" Chelsea spat out.Melissa quickly ran to her side and grabbed her by the shoulders."Ca
The nurse swiftly sedated Chelsea and instructed the guards to place her back on the bed.Melissa stood helplessly in the corner of the room, watching as the guards walked away.The entire ward was brought to a standstill and everyone was watching."This is what's best for your cousin," the nurse stated. "Her blood pressure is already high, so once it stabilizes and the bills are paid, she will be free to leave."Melissa glanced around the room, noticing that all the patients and their relatives were watching them, making it difficult for her to react to what was happening to her cousin.She swallowed hard. "How much is the bill?" she asked instead of picking a fight which was not going to solve anything."Let me go and get it," the nurse replied, walking away.Melissa approached Chelsea's bedside, where she was slowly losing consciousness. The medicine was yet to knock her out."I... mentioned his brother to get him to react and punch me but he didn't," Chelsea whispered."What?" Me
Rex and Selena arrived at the Mansion very late in the evening and went straight to their room.They were from attending a fundraising function, and as soon as they entered the yard, Rex had noticed one of Chelsea's cars was missing.While Selena showered, he went straight to his laptop and played the surveillance footage from the day.The second he was done, he texted his watchers, "Where has she gone?""We didn't want to disturb you, sir, but we lost her when she entered the train station," they replied.Rex stared at the messages, breathing heavily. Their job description required them to watch everything and report to him."Find her!" he replied and tossed the phone away, irritated.Chelsea was very smart, and from the surveillance, it appeared that she knew there were cameras in the house and that they were being watched.Selena finished her bath and found him deep in thought."Is everything okay?" she asked."Chelsea left the house, and I have no idea where she went," Rex replied
"Gentlemen, thank you for wasting your time, and I hope the ugly lady that brought you here paid you," Rex mocked."No, no, no, scan the stupid mansion again!" Chelsea ordered them.She was very sure Rex bugged the house. It was the only explanation as to why he had known there was poison in the food and offered it to Timo."Scan the house again! I paid a lot of money so SCAN it again!""Ma'am, if there were any cameras in here, our equipment would be beeping from the doorway.""Scan the fucking house now!" Chelsea roared.The men turned on their machines and began scanning the house again.Melissa walked to Chelsea, "What do you mean? Are you saying Rex has been watching us all this time?" she asked."I am a hundred percent sure!" Chelsea replied.Melissa turned to face Rex. "You stupid pervert! You put cameras in women's bedrooms?"Rex could not help but smirk; "Your sex video with that old judge is all over the internet for me to watch your ugly naked body anytime I am bored," he m
Everyone in the dining room dropped what they were doing and ran upstairs to Chelsea's room, bumping into Rex, who was wrapped in a towel and from taking a bath.He followed the trio into Chelsea's room, where she was now hyperventilating."What's going on? What happened?" Melisa helped her up and got her onto the bed.Rex stood in the doorway, a smirk evident on his face.Chelsea slowly raised her finger, pointing to the top where the safe was.Everyone in the room looked up and saw the empty safe."Where is the bag?" Miguel ran to it."Stolen...someone got in through the window," Chelsea replied as she raised her eyes and landed them at the door entrance where Rex stood.He was supposed to be her first suspect, but he appeared to have been taking a bath. But then she remembered the security guards."You took the money, didn't you? You ordered your stupid guards!" Selena quickly stepped forward. "The guards were with me in the kitchen. Ask Miguel and Melissa."Chelsea looked at them
Rex drove all the way to the airport and made sure to place the bag back in his suitcase as he walked to his jet.Once they were in the air, he opened the bag and saw hundred-dollar notes staring back at him.He was taken aback for a second, he was sure he had dried up all of Chelsea's money, and the two times he had her locked up was to make sure she flushed out all the money she had hidden.But the skank spent two weeks in prison even when she had money lying around somewhere.And from how she delayed calling the police, he could only conclude that it was illegal money.He began counting it; he had all the time in the world. His journey involved making circles in different countries to avoid being tracked.After an hour, he was done. Fifty thousand dollars stared back at him.He checked the bag again and found three fake passports with Chelsea's face but with different names.He stared at them, wondering if Chelsea was planning to run. The woman was not as tough as she wanted everyo
Rex sat in his office, waiting for the deliberations on his application for the Director position. The supervisors were locked for over an hour, debating while he sat in front of his laptop watching Peter run mad. It was two days in his holding cell, waiting for bail and for his lawyer who was trying to prove that Chelsea was not mentally stable and her confession was not reliable or credible in court. The man was busy tearing into Chelsea’s life and exposing her with a list of all the government officials she once slept with and all the illegal activities she was involved in. Their main goal was to tarnish Chelsea’s name so that she was deemed not credible to confess in any courtroom. Rex did not interfere, he sat back and watched from a distance as the two went on exposing their sex scandal and dirty laundry. Finally, his phone beeped. The supervisors were done. They called him and he entered the office very confident. “Congratulations Rex Grayson, you are officially the
Peter Banks was placed in handcuffs and taken to the van that drove him to the private detention center. He was calm and did not show any signs of resistance or frustration. He was more interested in the person who was going to lead the investigation, considering the dirt he had on all the directors and deputies in various agencies. That was why he was untouchable; everyone was dirty and was supposed to know not to go poking in other people’s business. He was taken into a room, and in minutes, his supervisors and deputy walked in.“I will advise everyone to think or visit their lawyers before they say anything here,” he warned in an orderly tone.The door opened, and Rex walked in.“What the fuck is he doing here!” he yelled.“Rex is now part of our team and is leading this investigation,” the deputy announced, sending Peter slamming on the chair.He looked at his supervisor.“Last we checked, you are the one who recommended him, and it took him only a day to get a confession,” the
Rex headed for the NSA building and could see cars following him. He looked in the mirrors and stepped on the gas.The confession was going to reach the tribunal whether he was alive or dead.“Sir, take your next exit, we will block the cars,” the watchers assured him.Rex made a turn, and his phone rang.He looked at the caller, and it was Peter.He answered it, wanting to hear the old fool’s voice one last time.“Where is my daughter!” Peter yelled.“Cremated in a vessel,” Rex replied.Peter paused, his breath audible.“Do not worry, they placed her in two vessels, and I intend to bring one to your prison cell, plus my drug so that you get to live longer and save your sentence,” Rex replied and hung up.“You stupid fool! I will blow up! How could you cremate my daughter without me!” he yelled, but Rex had already hung up on him.He dialed the line, but it went on ringing.Frustrated, he called the men who were following Rex.They needed to abduct Rex, dead or alive.“How far! Why am
Rex slowly pulled away from the hug, tears streaming down his cheeks.“Ever since that woman walked into your life, you made her your priority and then your son came, and finally you were on your road to recovery,” he added and looked down. “You were nearly there Rex, you were almost there.”Tears kept flowing.It was his father’s job to say the right thing at the moment. Rex was his son, and condemning him was not his part.They went on with the funeral procession, after which we headed to one of Rex’s mansions Rex’s father walked up to him with Sam in his hands.“The little man missed you," he said.Rex smiled and held the baby in my arms.His father cleared his throat.“You are coming with us, right?" he asked.Rex kept his gaze on the baby.“Rex, this is where the vengeance ends. That man killed his own daughter, and as a father, that would be the worst kind of karma,” he stated.Rex kept staring at the baby.His phone beeped; it was the watchers.He gave the phone one glance and
“Where is my daughter?” Peter kept demanding from the hospital administrator.His daughter was supposed to be at St Luke, the other officers confirmed that's where they sent the body, but only to be told the hospital had no idea where the body was.He called his deputy, who kept ignoring his calls.Everyone he was calling had no idea where she was taken, and neither did he have an idea of Chelsea’s whereabouts.He could smell Rex all over everything. Even in his daughter’s death, the stupid boy was being petty.He called Rex’s line but could not get through.Pissed, he called his men to turn the city upside down until Rex was found.“No, no, find Chelsea first! Find that stupid bitch!” he screamed.Meanwhile, Rex and Patricia stood over Rose’s body, clad in protective clothing.Patricia could not stop the tears. She had a lot of regrets. If only she had not called her daughter back or turned to alcohol or cried over the stupid divorce. Her daughter had found a life with the man she l
The paramedics took Patricia away in the ambulance while Rex fixed his eyes on Peter, whose face was as grey as water-soaked chalk dust. It was the old man’s fault; he released Chelsea. He sent her to the function to kill him. He was the only one who had the power to infiltrate her into his security team. On the other hand, Peter could feel his legs numbing up; his daughter was dead. He killed his daughter; it was his fault. That was not a fact he could try to make excuses for or try to pull himself out of. He had known his family was going to be at the event, yet he risked it all. His only concentration was his target, to kill the target. To kill Rex Grayson He was led inside, ignoring Rex’s vicious eyes. He had expected the boy to be attacking him or throwing rants, but instead, he just sat there staring at him. “We finally have footage of what transpired,” the deputy announced and called Peter and other heads of the other agencies into a private room where they got to watch
Time froze for both Rex and Chelsea as they watched Rose land on the ground with a hit.Chelsea was supposed to shoot again, and this time she was not going to miss because Rex’s attention was on his wife, crying and trying to wake her up, but she just stood there.She knew she had messed up. Peter Banks was going to have her head, and she was not going to see any future.Peter Banks was supposed to give her a new identity and a new life. He even promised her a new country of her choice and a rich man to marry.But she could see all that going down the drain. A big hit to the head came from behind her as security personnel ran to the scene and disarmed her, sending her to the ground.Rex placed his hands over the bullets, calling out for his wife as blood began coming out of her mouth.“Rose! Rose! Rose, stay with me!” he yelled, his eyes darting around for help.He could tell the bullet went straight for her heart, and things were not good as she could barely open her eyes.However,
“How the fuck did you know about the charity event?” Rose yelled. “The invitations are not out yet, but you already know about the event?”Rex quickly got on his laptop, checking for any breach in security, but he found none.“Rose, the old board that you are trying to change was appointed by me, so they informed me about the event that you plan to replace them,” Peter explained.Rose slowly calmed down; she had completely forgotten why she wanted to change the board.“You are not invited. If you had cared, you would have called the day I gave birth!” Rose yelled, hanging up.She turned to face her husband. “He went snooping around the board, spying on me instead of reaching out to me!” she yelled, irritated.“I am going to block him. I do not want to speak to him or see his face!” she added.Rex got up from where he was seated and placed the baby in the crib.He walked to her and gave her a hug.“Bae, forget about him. The charity is not going to plan itself,” he advised her and pla
Rex was tempted to scream but restrained his excitement. Counting chickens before they hatch was never his style.But for eight months, he had tried to find a crime that would land the fool with more than ten years but always came up short.The closest he ever got was the money laundering, but because he cleaned both his mother-in-law and wife’s companies, he had automatically made himself an accomplice, which Peter would use against him.But now, with the CIA director awake, the flash, and a terrorist willing to confess, Peter was as good as gone.He was tempted to run after his wife and tell her the good news but restrained himself again.He was going to tell her everything after the investigations were done.He got up and took a shower, smiling and picturing how life with Peter locked up was going to be.He was going to be free, and there was a possibility of not leaving the country and bringing his family to join him and his wife.He finished his bath and headed out to meet with t
