Chelsea sat in her chair, tapping her foot on the ground. The anxiety was killing her. She kept looking at her watch over and over again.Over an hour had elapsed without the cleaner showing up to her office.She had left a letter for the cleaner to deliver to the post office and in return, she was supposed to return with a letter from the man who previously made the bomb for her.The cleaner usually never took long, and the post office was only two streets away. But this time she was taking longer and her gut feeling was telling her something had gone wrong.She got up, knowing she was risking everything, but she just could not sit and do nothing.She walked to the parking lot and got in the car. She drove two blocks to the post office and sat in her car, waiting for the cleaner.Time began ticking, and before she knew it, thirty minutes elapsed.She got out of the car, irritated, and entered the post office.She searched the entire place for the cleaner, but she was not there. She l
The two-day vacation in the Bahamas finally came to an end, and Selena was not happy. The Bahamas was such a beautiful, quiet, and Chelsea-free zone, and she wanted to spend more days there. She wanted to permanently move there and start a new life, but Rex was on a revenge war, and it was impossible to convince him to abandon his revenge path.She continued packing with a low face. Rex noticed the low face and joined her. He understood she wanted to stay, but very soon he was going to free her. But at the moment, he had bad news that he wanted to share with her. He cleared his throat, forcing her to look up."Selena, remember when I asked you to block Chelsea from your social media accounts?" he asked.Selena was almost rolling her eyes, but she controlled herself."Well, Chelsea took screenshots of your vacation photos and sent them to your old boyfriend Kelvin," he explained.Selena's eyes shot up, colour completely drained from her face as she stood up, "You mean she sent the ph
Selena walked to her room, throwing everything that was in her hands on the floor in irritation as she let out a scream.Chelsea closed the line. The useless woman risked everyone's lives just to get back at her.Kelvin was a very dangerous, unstable man and not fit to live with. They were all in danger."Ma'am, we will be outside," one of the guards said, snapping her out of her thoughts."Stay on guard at the door 24/7. In fact, you should be glued to the door!" she ordered."Yes, Ma'am," they replied and walked outside.The door opened and Rex walked inside."Chelsea and Kelvin stepped outside," he said."I want him gone, Rex! I want him out of my life!" she yelled."Which I will, I already have people following them," he replied.Selena was not in the mood. Rex was playing stupid games that were going to cost them their lives.She walked to the bathroom, ignoring him.Rex got on his laptop and began going through the files his watchers sent him about Kelvin.The man was imprisoned
Morning came and Rex woke up to an empty bed. He quickly got up and searched both the bathroom and toilet, but Selena was not there.He quickly got on his laptop, clicked on the surveillance, and spotted her in the kitchen with Kelvin.She was frying eggs, and Kelvin sat on one of the chairs staring at her like a rabid dog.It appeared she was going for the short-term solution. She was desperate to get the parasite out of her life at all costs.He took a seat and turned up the audio.In the kitchen, Selena finished with the eggs and began making the toast.She was trying hard to contain all the emotions inside of her that were starting to boil up.There she was in the kitchen playing nice to the animal that almost burnt her alive and cooking him breakfast.She had not slept the entire night debating on the options that Rex had given her and went for the short process." I saw the photos on Facebook, life has been treating you nice," Kelvin spoke first after a long silence."It was unt
The hands around Chelsea's neck kept getting tighter and tighter, constricting the airflow and making it hard for her to breathe.The idiot in front of her was going to kill her. She could feel her brain getting deprived of the needed oxygen."You brought me here to get mocked and ridiculed, didn't you?" Kelvin yelled, the veins on the sides of his head protruding while his visciously stained red."You….are…killing me!" Chelsea tried to scream, but the idiot was too strong for her.Realizing she could not overpower him, she tried kicking him, but he turned her and grabbed her from behind, continuing to strangle her.The gate opened and Miguel drove in.Before he could turn off the engine, he noticed the strangling scene in the gardens.He paused for a second, not in any way alarmed.Last time he checked, Chelsea tried killing him, or in better terms, she watched when he was about to be blown into pieces.He decided to ignore it but then remembered all the half properties that they war
Evening came, and Selena was anxious to go to sleep, even with Rex next to her and four bodyguards standing outside her door.Learning about Kelvin strangling Chelsea brought new fear to her. What made it even worse was the fact that Chelsea allowed him to stay even after the assault.She kept turning and muttering to herself.Rex, on the other hand, kept quiet, busy on his laptop. He had just gained access to Kelvin's accounts.The psycho was loaded, which made sense as to why Chelsea was clinging to him. Kelvin inherited a lot of money from his uncle when he got out of prison.Cutting off that money would make him worthless in Chelsea's eyes, so he drained the money and transferred it into an offshore account.The move was going to trigger the psycho, and if lucky, he was going to get the required reaction and nail the bastard.He closed the laptop with a huge smile on his face and called it a night.Of all the people in the house, he slept like a baby, and when morning came, he was
Kelvin closed his eyes, ignoring the banging and yelling from the other side of the door.The noise was rattling in his ears and he needed to block it out and think, but the noise was too loud, making it hard for him to think.He walked to the wall and began hitting his head against it."Think, think, think, think!" he kept mumbling while hitting his head, finally blocking out the noise.Outside, Chelsea got tired of screaming and knocking on the door. Her plan appeared to be blowing up just like the previous plans."You shouldn't have invited him here, Chelsea!" Melissa yelled at her."We do not have time for blame. Maybe it would have been better if I had sent you to open your legs to the investor!" Chelsea yelled.Melissa moved away from the door, disgust, evidence on her face. She might have owed Chelsea for taking her in, but she was too much sometimes."This is your mess. I think I will be in my room," Melissa replied and backed away before she said something that she was going
Chelsea tried to open her mouth, but only an echo escaped her lips. Her voice vanished all of a sudden while her brain tried to wrap around the words that just came out of the IT guy.She wanted him to repeat what he had just said, but she could not find the words.Kelvin moved closer to the laptop and he could see his money, the full balance that he had left in his account was now reflecting in Chelsea's account.He clenched his fist trying to control his anger."Miss Jones, is there an explanation for this?" the manager asked."Rex," Chelsea finally managed to get a word out. "Red did this, he did this! That animal framed me!"It was him, it had to be him. The idiot stole the money and transferred it into her account.She quickly got her phone and logged into her account, and half a million dollars stared back at her.She had no idea Kelvin was loaded. She knew he was not broke, but it never clicked that he had half a million in his account."Miss Jones!" the manager yelled at her.
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
