“So, you’re saying that for a prize, Jake Benson would be willing to destroy the family that did everything they could to find him, shelter him and even make him the sole heir immediately?” Catherine asked, surprise coating her voice.Everyone looked at each other, Lorenzo groaned and Atticus let out an even deeper guttural sound. They’ve all seen betrayal in all kinds but this… this was something deeper.Anyone who saw Jake Benson from a mile away would have thought that he was nothing but an angel sent to the Benson family and those with the skill to discern would immediately know that he was up to no good.Sighing, Kai ran his fingers through his hair as his mind played back every single thing that he had gone through ever since Jake appeared.His life had always been hell, he had nothing and no one and everyone in the Benson family made sure that they rubbed that on his face everyday.But as soon as Jake was found, things went from worse to worst, his life became a nightmare and K

“Did they think they could catch us off guard with that half assed attempt of theirs? What the hell were they thinking?” Catherine sneered.She was angry as she paced around the conference room for a moment, her eyes wandering around, her blood boiling so hot that despite the cold, the conference room soon started feeling hot.Catherine had ordered the arrest of Lila and Rebecca Benson, Kai had warned her that they were going to try to do something stupid and true to his prediction they did.They wanted to claw their way into her life and by doing that, taking her and Kai down as if that was going to be easy, but while she and Kai were busy dealing with a rotten company, she found out that Nora Benson was trying to rescue her sisters?And not just that, they had caused a whole building to go up in flames, there were casualties and there would have been death if Teresa hadn’t used her powers.“You know? I was feeling sad for them, I was having a little pity on them because I thought th

Before Nora could say another word, the call dropped and she was left staring into the darkness of her room, her heart racing, a mixture of fear and anger consuming her.Kai knew about the plan, has he really premeditated it? Did he really know that she was going to try to save her sister or was this just a bet on luck that he took and happened to win.Nora’s anger was so smoldering that the room felt like its walls were closing up on her. Her teeth gritted so hard that if she hadn’t stopped, she could have lost her teeth.“How dare he?” She growled, finally letting herself speak as she pulled off her hair bonnet and ran her fingers through her hair.“How dare that filthy bastard think he can talk to me like he just did?” She asked no one in particular, her anger reaching the point that she couldn’t stop laughing.Her vision turned red, and she could taste blood right on the tip of her tongue, her heart lurched and her stomach tightened with disgust as she stared into space.“How dare

Nora swallowed, her throat bobbing as she tried to look beyond the mirror to see what was happening but her sister was gone, Rebecca had been dragged away.The plan was supposed to be flawless, she was supposed to be going back to her house with her two sisters and not just one of them.“NO! No! I can’t just leave her. I need to go after her! You need to go after her!” Nora screamed at the top of her lungs, the whole moment was chaotic.“Bitch what are you—”“I WILL CALL YOUR BOSS AND TELL HIM YOU BOTCHED THE JOB!” Nora screamed at the top of her lungs before the masked man could say what he thought of saying.Her eyes were wide, she had watched people get reeled into ambulances all for what? Just one of her sisters when she could have gotten the two of them?There was no way she was going to agree to that after being an accomplice to something as cruel as blowing up an entire building.“Okay, I tried to do this the nice way but if you don’t get your ass up and follow me while my frie

“Ah! I can’t believe I have to play informant for the same people that I wanted to wreck,” Jake smiled as he looked through his binoculars, watching everything play out right in front of him.A wicked smirk tugged at the side of his lips and he gave in to it quicker than anyone could ever imagine as he reached into the bag of chips that was sitting beside him.“I’m sorry, Nora, I genuinely cannot sit back and watch you succeed with your stupid plan, that would be bad for me.” He muttered as he crunched on the chips.He couldn’t sit back, just like Nora was in contact with the person helping her from behind the scenes on the phone, he too, hadn't seen the man he was talking to.HOURS AGO.“She just left the house, I was lucky enough to have eavesdropped and found out that they are planning to rescue her sisters.” Jake said into the phone as soon as Nora stepped out.He was standing by the window and had waited for her to drive off before calling that number.He had been spying on his s

“You’re to wait at the address….” Nora sighed as she stared down at her phone, the brightness burning her eyes as she got out of her car and made her way to the place the stranger had asked her to wait.The night burned before it even began and while she stood, while she was glad and happy that she was finally going to be seeing her sisters, Nora couldn’t help but fidget.Questions ran through her mind as she waited for the signal, her heart was racing and nothing she tried could’ve stopped it from racing.Should she have told Jake about the plan? Should she have asked him to come with her for some sort of emotional support at least?“Pull yourself together, Nora!” She clapped her cheeks as she took another step forward, finally stopping where the stranger had specifically asked her to, her fingers trembling around the straps of her jacket.She could hear almost everything happening in the city, it was as though she could hear it breathing, the occasional bark of a dog, footsteps scut
