I starred at my mom, hoping for a positive answer
"But considering the fact that you are still my daughter, I will help you"
" what. Really" I was surprised
" I will book a flight for you to Russia and change your identity with a new passport , go there and never come back"
"Why so far away"
"Jason is going to reopen the case about your father's murder and you turn out to be the number one suspect, if you stay in Russia, they will never find you and the case will be forgotten" was my mom really helping me, back then she volunteered to hand me over to the corps
"I know you might be wondering why I am helping you but it's just for my late husband, at least let his soul Rest In Peace" she said and began to walk away , then I asked her a very shocking question
"Do you also believe I murdered him" she froze and was silent for a while
"I myself don't know the answer to that question" she replied, I felt hurt abit, knowing fully well the answer to that question
"Scarlett, for the mean time, leave this house and hide far away, I will notify you when your flight is ready"
"Thanks mom but what about you"
" I will be fine, I will try to use my power as a presidential candidate to reveal Jason" that's the nicest thing she has ever thought of doing for me , I ran towards her and hugged her, she didn't hug me back but I didn't matter, she was willing to help
I released from the hug and she left
I stayed inside the store room until I was sure Jason and Alia were out of the house
Upstairs I went running like a mad dog, it's was already getting late. I packed some clothes and shoes and the little money I had at home , my bank account was now his.
I went back to the store room and hid myself, I can't go out now
Ever since the case of my father's murder, I stopped going out without a car or on my own during the day time. People can't stop talking and labeling me a murderer
I tried going out once but was almost stoned to death, I don't want that to happen so I will have to wait till it's very dark
After sitting down inside the store and waiting for dorks, it finally came and I set out for my journey
My mom has already sent me the details concerning my flight and my new identity, I quickly came out of the store room and looked carefully , making sure no one was watching
When I was sure I rolled my suitcase outside and then outside the house
Looking back at my gorgeous mansion, I vowed to make Jason suffer and regret, for me and for the unborn life he made me end, two years ago.
I walked along the streets looking down in shame with no destination
My stomach grumbled, I was hungry, I saw a nearby store and decided to by something, I still have one hour before my flight
I used a hanky to cover the lower part of my face, revealing only my eyes then I went into the store
I got my self a chilled can drink along with a snack and left the store after paying
I went to a very quiet and deserted location to eat
Who would have thought, the ceo of the top ranking companies is now sitting on a little bench , hiding and eating like a stray dog. What will I do when I get to Russia, I have no one there, will I have to beg on the streets just to survive?
Tears filled my eyes, what should I do now
I brought out my phone to call my mom and beg for some money, I can use to start up something when I get there
I was too occupied with the thoughts of my life to barely notice some street guys approaching me
By the time I noticed they had already surrounded me, I shivered and pressed my handbag firmly on my chest
"What's a pretty damsel like you doing here at this hour of the night" one of the said, playing with my pink long hair.
" pls don't hurt me" I pleaded
" of course we won't but only if you comply" he looked at me lust fully
The place I was still had some tall trees around,like a little forest
They began to drag me towards the covers of the trees, I screamed shouting for help, but no one came
When I thought all hope was lost, the man emerged holding a bright torch, he started shouting for help scaring those bastards away, he moved closer to me
"Are you okay" he said raising my head up but when he saw my face, he backed away
" it's you, you are a killer" he moved further away, I held his hand and began to beg him
" please don't leave me out here alone, they will come back please, help me please help me" but instead he yanked his hand off and spat on me
" you should be ashamed of yourself, why are you begging for help now, didn't you think your dear father needed help too before you mudered him" he pushed me away
" please don't go I am begging you" but he was already gone
I looked around, those guys from before were already coming back, I began to run, I ran like it's my last day
I could hear their footsteps closing in on me from behind but I didn't stop, I continued and ran to a sharp corner
Immediately I took the sharp corner, I bumped into something and fell on it
I wasn't a thing it was a person
"Get out of my way you fool" he snapped and pushed me away, in the process I mistakenly dragged down his mask
I was Mr Xavier Grey, I have seen him before but he looked shocked or should I say angry
"Fuck! How dare you remove my mask, are you insane" he shouted
"Am so sorry, I just needed your help"
"Shut up!"
He stood up but I held his hand , he starred at me with his cold dark black eyes sending shivers down my spine
He looked like he was in a hurry or should I say he was running away from someone
Just then, I began to hear dogs backing and then footsteps,some figures appeared with chained dogs, they looked like corps, oh yes they are corps
Oh thank goodness, I am saved
He quickly dragged his mask back up, something told me I should run
One of them flashed a touch light and then corps said after seeing my face
"Miss Scarlett, you are advised to move away from that man, he is highly dangerous" wait what, did he just say highly dangerous
I began to shake, before I could even make a single move, he grabbed me , took out a gun and shot the corps light out, then began to run away with me
Oh my! What is happening
I screamed
