"I'm getting married again." She announces, minutes after returning back home after three years of absentia. Her family looks at her like she's grown two horns. "What?" "Don't be alarmed." "Who is he?" She smiles, drops her fork and looks them in the eye. "His name is Ashton Wright." "Isn't he...!" "Yes. He's the elder brother of Richard Wright, my ex-husband." * For three years, Ivy Hall endures every form of abuse possible until the encounter that breaks her steely resolve. At her ex husband's betrayal, she enlists the help of his elder brother in her revenge against him and her best friend, and surprisingly, he agrees. She moves from Richard Wright to Ashton Wright. Some might wonder, what's the difference if they are from the same family... She smiles and shakes her head. "I'm moving from grass to grace."

Apparently, he did his job quite well... Hank stands up from the chair in the car, stretching slightly just as two more vans pull into the garage lot.As they see him, they crowd around him, all their questions on the top of their tongues.He immediately holds out his palms, stopping them from speaking before he does. "Thanks for coming. What I want to share with you all now is pretty important. So, is there any channel here that's going to be doing it live?" He asks, managing to keep the pompousity out of his voice.Two reporters raise their hands. He motions them forward, pushing the other back with a wave of his hand. "So, you're going to be having me live?""Yes sir..." The first one responds, pushing ahead. "The late morning news has started and this will be the third
About twenty minutes after Grant's car had driven away from the spot it had been parked in, the loud sirens of the ambulance sounded very crisply and nearby. It stopped right in front of the garage and two EMT's descend from it, a stretcher in their hands. They carry it into the garage and barely manage to roll Roger's stiffened up body on the gurney. They carry it to the ambulance with a lot of strength but they make it and cover the body with a while cloth to signify that he's dead already. Well, he's been dead since the one bullet hit him in the head. The ambulance starts and drives off with a police car arriving right after the ambulance closes it's doors. Two officers descend from it and walk into the garage, heading straight for the blood spattering on the floor and the half outline that the blood has caused while flowing around Roger's fallen and lifeless body. "Hm. It was pretty obvious he was shot in the head." The younger officer observes, looking at his senior subordinat
Grant swears softly under his breath and walks towards the body that has stopped spasming. He touches the pulse point on the neck and on his wrists but there's nothing. He kneels on the floor and puts his head on Roger's chest to check for even the slightest beat but there's nothing there as well.He looks out through the door at the guy who's in complete black, standing with the gun on his shoulder. Grant puts his pointer to his middle finger and raises it up.Immediately the guy sees the sign, he packs his equipments into the long black bag beside him and in fifteen seconds, he's gone, no trace of him ever being there left behind.Grant stands up and closes his eyes for a moment and then opens them right back. He sneers. "You don't even deserve a one minute silence, douchebag." He turns around anf reaches for his phone. He dials shortly and places the phone to his ear. "Hello?""This is an emergency service. What's your emergency?"Grant looks down at the body, wondering if he should
Ashton lets up all of his pent up anger on Tyler, the kind he had shown to Roger and Mike weeks before. Before everyone knows it, Tyler has a bursted lip and ruined nose.It takes the joint effort of Hank and one of his men to pull him off of Ashton. "Stop it man!" Hank yells as he drag him off.Ashton recomposes himself and adjusts his long coat. "Fine. I'll leave him."Ivy throws Raine a furtive smile, raising her eyebrows while telling her that she said it before.Even though, they all know that Tyler deserved all of it. Stalking an helpless woman is like harming a stray cat with poisoned food. Just as disgusting and lowly for a person to do.Hank pulls Tyler to his feet and holds him by the scruff of his neck before pushing him to one of the officers who manages to catch him before he hits the ground once again. The pain really hits him and he winces out loud before trying to wriggle of the officer's grip."Who the hell are you people and why are you beating me?" He yells and looks
All it takes is one outstreched leg of Grant's to bring Roger to the floor, almost landing on Andrew who's still fighting to stand up. He rolls out of his way just in time and Roger hits the ground hard.He winces out loud as he had fallen on his forearm.Grant raises him up with one hand, grabbing his collar. "You? You asked him to kill me?"Roger shakes his head vehemently, indicating no. Grant looks over at Andrew who's clutching his face. Andrew goes defensive. "That bastard is lying. He specifically told me Grant Hall, elder brother of Ivy Hall, red head like her and the name of your company. I couldn't have found you without his help with descriptions. He's nuts, telling a dirty lie like that."Grant cocks his head to the side. "Who should I believe now? I think I should tear both your faces until your stories match up!"Andrew who had been too in pain to stand up from the ground before scrambles up and runs to where his men stand. He pushes one of them forward. "Tell him you i
Raine raises her eyes and it's red, and she's crying.Ivy pinches Ashton slightly under the table and then gives him an I told you to stop look.He shrugs guiltily. "Are you crying? Did I make you cry? I didn't know it would hurt so much since you had been doing it so much to me but I'm sorry. I really didn't mean it."Raine raises her hand and wipes her eyes. "I told you someone is stalking and you had to ask me if I slapped him or insulted him. Is it the same thing? My stalker is not my step brother or elder brother that I can talk to so casually.""Ah, so it's only me you can talk to that way? Am I supposed to feel... I don't know, special or something?""Yes! You're supposed to feel special that you're the only one I can insult so freely."Ahsotn suddenly bursts into laughter. "Come on, big girls don't cry. You're a professor at that. Imagine if your students saw you right now."Raine laughs as well. "Well, by tomorrow morning, I'll be a trending meme all over the school. I'll be
He turns the car around and drives right for Grey Street, the same place that Ivy had been kidnapped in months earlier, where she had been detained and starved and laughed at...And the same man, the same bastard, has had the guts to show up again, this time, targeting him. He's a pretty fine target anyway so of course, he's someone's target.So many people that he's hurt so there has to be someone who would come for him anyway.But that person has messed with the wrong person, using the wrong person.He decided someone he already had mixed feelings for to hit on him... Someone's worst mistake.Before he does anything to him, he'll make sure to make him spill the person who sent him in his way before anything. Then he'll decide what his next course of action is.He remembers the road to the place quite clearly so it's no problem to get there and Grey Street is one of the most renowned places in the entire city of its slums and grim looks. The perfect place for lowlifes and assassins
An envoy of ten black cars, nine vans and right in the middle is a white Jaguar, though naturally faster than the others, keeps the same pace as the vans going before and after it."What do you say again?""He's within eyeshot. I'm still following him right now.""Okay. We are on our way now, don't lose him." He drops the call and looks over Grant who looks kind of disinterested at the moment. "We have him sir. He was hiding at the same spot where we rescued your sister and Wren months ago."Grant scoffs. "The cheek. Tried to murder me and now is hiding in plain spot... If I didn't know better, I'd have said..." His eyes slowly widen. "Stop the cars!""What sir!""I said you all should fucking stop."They all stop driving at almost the same time in the middle of the road."They've all stopped ahead and behind."Grant gets off the car and every other man inside all of ten cars exit as well."What happened sir? What do you feel?"Grant hits his hand on the hood of his car, looking aroun
(This is the final part of Tyler's day.)Tyler sleeps off at the window few minutes later after watching and there's nothing interesting going on.Suddenly, he jerks awake to the sound of his phone ringing. He looks over at it as it vibrates on the wooden mantel. He picks it up and looks at the caller ID and sees it's an unknown number.He picks it anyway. "Hello?""Hello, am I on to Mr Tyler Reef?" A female voice asks him over the phone."Yes. Who is this?""My name is Virginia Longbottom.""And... How can I help you?""I got your name and number from the doorman. I have a complaint for you, could you please come outside your apartment?""Yes, of course." Tyler puts the phone in his pocket and heads out, unsure of what's it is all about. As he opens his door and steps out, he sees a dark haired woman in her thirties with her hand on her waist standing a few meters away from his door. "Good afternoon. Are you Virginia? The lady who called me?""Mr Tyler? Yes I am.""Oh, you said you h
