REVENGE GIRL

Harley POV

I watched until she was out of the room. Reaching out to my phone which was lying beside me on the bed, I picked it up and unlocked it. Scrolling through my contacts I got to Jay’s number and I hit the dial button, waiting patiently for him to pick up.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

“Speak up!” His cold voice rang through the phone and I rolled my eyes angrily. Can he be polite for once?

“I’m sending you the address of his location now, make sure you are careful,” I said and with that, I ended the call and texted him the address of the place. I sighed briefly and dropped my phone on the bed. The thought of Richmond flash through my mind and I couldn’t stop thinking of what his cousin had said. If truly he has feelings for me, then my work here will be less stressful…

Author POV

It has been a couple of days since Harley was taken to the hospital and all this time, Richmond had tried to be on his best behavior.

“I’m fine already, can’t we go home?” Tasha asked frustratingly throwing her head back and pouting her lips cutely and Richmond smiled. For some reason unknown to him, seeing her beautiful face makes him so happy.

“The doctor said you are fine and should have gone home already, but I need to take care of something before you leave here. It is dangerous at the current place, so you should relocate from there,” He said softly and she pulled a puzzled look like she had no clue what he was talking about.

“You don’t have to go through that stress, you know? The place is fine and…”

“And you are here in the hospital now? Look, this isn’t up to you to decide on, but I and I’ve already concluded that you’re moving out already. I’ve moved your things from there to the new place you’ll be living in. This is about your safety and I have to be responsible for it,” He said and she nodded slowly.

She couldn’t help wondering what was happening, he was supposed to be suspicious of her but how he acts free-minded with her like they’ve known each other for so long was disturbing enough.

“Uhm… I’ll use the restroom,” She said, standing up from the bed and heading to the restroom.

He stared at her till she was out of sight, wondering what could be his problem, he kept wondering what she had done to him. He didn’t plan for this to happen, he never planned to fall in love with her, but it seems that she had already won his heart. His thoughts wandered off to the past, but he quickly shrugged it off. Thinking of his awful past and ruining his mood was the last thing on his mind…

At a warehouse…

The door to a dark room burst open and three people were dragged inside and thrown roughly on the floor, forcing groans of pain out of their throats. Their faces were covered with a small sack, and their hands were tied behind their backs. They look terrified.

“Wh… Where am I?” One of them asked, and judging from her feminine voice, anyone could tell that she was a woman. Her voice quivered in fear, as she struggled to free herself from the rope that was used to tie her hands, but it seems impossible.

The door suddenly opened, and the atmosphere tensed up, announcing the danger of the person that just arrived. His scent filled the air, and his dark and intimidating aura assumed the air, sending shivers down their spines. Even if their faces were tied, they knew that whoever it was that had walked inside, was indeed dangerous.

Jay stood staring down at them, as a smirk laced up his lips. The thought of the fate that awaits the three people rushed through his mind, and he couldn’t fight back the deadly and dangerous sarcastic laugh that escaped his lips and of course, they knew at that moment, that the person was indeed dangerous.

“Wh… what is our offense?” One of them who turned out to be a man asked with his voice quivering in fear.

Slowly, Jay brought out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and picked a stick out of it. He lit it and puffed out smoke from his mouth and nose, his eyes conveying so much danger.

“Untie them,” He ordered his men, who took to action immediately. They all gasped in shock to see the famous billionaire CEO of Clinton’s empire, and they couldn’t help the waves of confusion that rushed through them. They couldn’t help wondering what was going on, and how come he was there.

“I don’t have much time to waste, and if you must know, I hate repeating myself. If you still want to live till the next five minutes, do well to answer every questions that I’m going to be asking you. Now tell me, what did you say is your name again?” He asked, squatting down in front of the lady and puffing smoke over her face while she coughed seriously.

“Ti… Rita…” She stuttered, shaking visibly.

“Rita… Rita… That’s a nice name,” He said as a smirk danced on his lips. Standing up on his feet, he collected a gun from one of his men, and they all gasped in fear.

“So, you said Jay is a monster…, Jay is a beast who is just ruining the lives of youths, isn’t it? How about I show you how deadly a beast can be? Oh! My bad, let me introduce myself, my name is Hayden Clinton, also the well-known criminal, Jay. Or am I not a criminal? You see, it’s funny how people draw attention to themselves when they’re not even noticed. I was just minding my business and living my life, but you chose to meddle into my affairs, and now you’ll have to pay the prize,” He said softly, pointing the gun at her while she just quivered. She knew that it was the end of her life, she knew that nobody was going to save her, they were all going to die.

“Please… please don’t…”

“Don’t bother to say those words, there’s nothing like ‘forgiveness’ and ‘second chance’ in Jay’s law. Too bad that my face will be the last you’ll ever see. This is how a monster acts,” He said and shot her right on her leg, earning a scream from her.

“Slow death, that’s what I give to my stalkers,”…
