"Aren't..,.. you the jerk?"
Heads turned to the door.Gasps rippled in the hall.Mrs. Valemore shot up from her chair, shock and disbelief palpable on her face.Mr. Valemore's jaw parted, his expression not different from everyone's.Amelia stood up slowly, blinking once, blinking twice in shock as though she was seeing a ghost turning into reality.Jason's phone hung mid-air, his eyes narrowing on him...Ragnar. The forgotten man. The man who they thought was long dead. The man they thought he fled from the family."Ragnar..." Amelia rasped, her voice trailing off in astonishment.Cassandra finally turned to see the man whose presence had the hall in shock.She gasped, shocked. Her eyes fell wide in disbelief.Her eyes narrowed on him. "What are you doing here?" She spun to her family with a raised brow. "How did you all know him?""The question is...how did you know him, Cassandra?" Mr. Valemore's suspicion was readable.Ragner paused mid-stride, surprised to see Cassandra in the Valemore house of all places.
Cassandra under heat
The inside of the Valemore living room was heating. The family members assembled themselves around a long table.Among them was Amelia, the eldest daughter of the family who had always hated Cassandra for being the CEO of the Valemore group.She believes the position was meant for her, and Cassandra had snatched her place because of some cheap leadership skills she displayed to curry the father's attention.That had led to a big feud a big feud which led to splitting the Valemore business and resources into two. Half of which is handled by Cassandra, and the other by AmeliaAnd Jason Valemore, the last child—always too sure of himself, always the loudest guy in the room."You've put this family into shame, Cassandra," Mr. Valemore continued berating, his eyes blazing. "You're always different," His finger snapped in the air. "You went in there to bail a man.. that criminal who raped you! What has really gotten into you!""Maybe it's time to know who should really handle all the family
Home at last!
Caspian grinned like a wolf, already calculating his vindication."Cassandra's life, her career, everything she has built is now under my thumb," He smirked. "I can decide to crush her, or make her my puppet....Let's see how low she'd be willing to go at my feet when I'm done with her" He chuckled, his smirk dropping into something menacing."And as for that bastard, I'll have his manhood hung and make him very useless."A yellow taxi pulled over in front of a big black gate. The front door of the taxi opened and out stepped Ragnar. He adjusted his bag, clicking the door shut."Here," He pulled out a crisp note $100 for the driver. "Keep the change." He said, already moving towards the gate as the mature driver expressed gratitude.Ragnar pressed the gate bell and took a step back as he waited for a response. The night was calm with a gentle breeze that relaxed his nerve slightly. His eyes raked over the outer wall of the Valemore surroundings.The new painting, the tall gate, the flo
Gerald Roderick
THE RODERICK MANSIONThe Rodrick mansion is a testament of wealth and power. Curtains imported from Loro piana draped over the windows, gilded furniture and fixtures glistening under the warm glow of recessed lights. Above, a giant chandelier cast a tiny crystal to the marble floor.Gerald Roderick.The patriarch of the Rodrick family— the man whose temper is as hot as Magma. In Gerald's dictionary, there is no mistake. He'd never failed. And when he's not the one in charge, dare make one mistake and you'll have your fingers gone— He's cold and unforgiving.He stepped out down from the staircase, a 'Samsung Galaxy S24', Ultra, custom made, pressed on his ear. His posture imposed at six feet two. His hair was salt and pepper. Not a strand dare to waggle. A navy suit poured over his body, embroidered with tiny diamonds that scattered light on the suit lapel. "I want the goods in my yard in the next 30 minutes, Jax!" He hissed into the phone. "I entrusted you with the delivery. The
Eight days death ultimatum
Cassandra's words stung the air like a curse.At first, it felt like a joke— Like a circus at a funeral.But who jokes with death like that. But her expression contrasted the idea that she was passing a joke. Concern etched over her face like a mask. But Ragnar, he merely chuckled— He actually laughed like he'd just heard the biggest joke of the century. Cassandra raised her head to look at her in a way that says; 'is he going mad?'Ragnar leaned in, his elbow resting on the table."Try harder," He said, a hint of amusement in his voice. "Trying to scare me with that cheap joke is not going to work." Cassandra's eyes narrowed in disbelief before she exploded. She jerked up. The chair scrapped backwards, leaving a scratch to the ground. "Do you think I'm f*cking joking here?!" She yelled, frustration and anger bubbling in her voice. "For thinking all of this is a joke is stupidity. You've been marked to die. In the f*cking next eight days!"Silence fell over the room. And the tensio
Mystery of Cassandra
The door creaked as it opened.A police officer in black suit walked in with a tablet in his hand. A crisp suit poured over him, appearing too smooth, almost arrogance shining. His badge flashed his name: 'Detective Durand' like a declaration that the room was under his control now.The door clicked shut behind gently. He paused, looking at Ragnar like coldness and barely concealed malice.He moved to the desk and sat behind the camera, setting down a tablet on the desk. Tension rose in the room as the silence stretched between them. Detective Durand leaned in, locking his finger on the desk. He looked at Ragnar like he was a complete disaster."Ragner Reid, Isn't," He didn't need to look into the tablet, as though the judgement had been passed behind Ragnar. Ragner didn't blink. He stared expressionlessly at the Detective, and the quiet composure felt like a punch to Durand's composed authority.His face etched with lines of annoyance as he gnarled. "You're acting too relaxed for a
