Jeslyn chuckled dryly. “Whose fault is it?…” Jeslyn gave the pin to the manager before chit-chatting with Rex while waiting for the card. 

Meanwhile, Ray was so shocked that he almost tripped on nothing. “Jes- Jeslyn? My Jeslyn?” He mumbled to himself in utter disbelief. 1 

After the manager deducted his money, he handed the card to Jeslyn with both hands. 

Jeslyn accepted the card and intended to return it knowing that it belonged to Maverick, however seeing the name boldly written with silver, she choked. ‘L.L Jeslyn: 1 

She kept the card away to not look suspicious. “Have a nice time paying.” She smiled at Youan before holding Valen’s hand and walking out of the store with the others following behind with her shopping bags. 

Along the way, she stopped to buy a few more things she found to her liking before they finally left the mall. Unbeknownst to them that Ray was following them from behind. 

At the parking lot, Jeslyn spotted her stepmother walking towards her car and laughed villainously. “It seems the Lord wants me to take care of you today.” 

“What are you plotting? Fill me in.” Rex beamed. 

“You are not a form.” Jeslyn rolled her eyes. “Only forms get to be filled out.” (3 

Rex chuckled and shook his head. 

“That’s your husband’s car. I reckon you might not know it.” Rex pointed at a black-tinted car. 

“Who said I won’t? Stop underestimating me.” Jeslyn glared at him. 

“He just bought the car actually. Hahaha…” 

“Ohhh…whatever, he’s got a nice smell, so I could have known.” 

“Jeslyn, have you become a dog now? You’ve got a dog nose?” Rex teased. 

“F*ck off!” 

“Hahahaha…yeah, yeah, I’m leaving… Valen boy, come with me. Nasty things might happen inside the car and it’s not wise for you to be there.” 

“I’m not coming with you,” Valen said curtly. 

Jeslyn nodded in approval, but when she spotted her stepmother walking towards the road, she immediately changed her mind. “Valen child, please be with uncle Rex, I’m about to do something evil.” With that said, she hurried towards Maverick’s car, missing the two-second pout on Valen’s face. Getting to the car, Jeslyn knocked on the driver’s window. The glass wound down and Maverick’s cold face popped up from the car. 

“Ehm…please, can you get down for a few minutes? I just want your car for a few seconds, please.” Jeslyn looked in the direction of the road and saw her stepmother waiting to cross the road while her daughter, Chi Chi, was left in the car with the guards.

“Why” Maverick’s hard voice sounded. 

“I want to commit a crime.” 

“You want to run someone over?” 

Jeslyn nodded stiffly. Maverick’s lips curled slightly. “Get in.” He said and Jeslyn hurriedly went through the other side and entered the front passenger’s seat. 

Maverick started the car and zoomed out of the garage, driving at full speed toward the road. 

“Do you want her dead?” Maverick asked with his eyes focused on Jeslyn to see her reaction. “No,” she turned to look at him. Their eyes met. He could see the determination in her orb. The wickedness she has been hiding in those cute eyes for so long. For a moment he doubted if she was the cute bunny he knew. 

“I want her to suffer… so much that she would be abandoned by her family, she would want death but it won’t come. She would see and know the truth but cannot warn anyone against it. want to ruin her, Maverick 

Looking into her clear hazel eyes, Maverick could see the sparkle in them. She was about to cry but was forcing herself to hold it in. “How do you intend to achieve that?” 

“Bang!” 

Maverick didn’t look at the road. His brown eyes were still holding Jeslyn’s hazel eyes when he accelerated and brushed Madam Chen out of the way. 

Jeslyn jolted and turned to look at the road but saw nothing. 

“You hit something,” she asked a rhetorical question. She was sure he did. 1 

“Hmm… she’ll be sent to the hospital in a while. Go finish her off in the hospital.” He told her before he turned to face the road and sped off. 

While all of that was happening, Ray who rushed out to follow Jeslyn a while back saw everything. He was shocked for a moment before he pieced together all the events that happened today. Then it dawned on him that Jeslyn was seeking revenge. 

“Jeslyn,” he called under his breath. Then he pulled out his phone and hurriedly made a call. “Take care of the CCTV footage that captured the accident at City mall.” While saying that, he was hurrying towards his car. 

“Should I delete the footage or what?” 

Ray stayed silent for a while before he replied, “send me a copy and delete the footage.” 

“Ok, Young Master.” The voice replied. 

Ray got into his car to go after Maverick’s car. 

Meanwhile, Rex could be seen in his car rubbing his palms together as he stared at his laptop. “Search all you want, you won’t find anything. Hehehehe…” 

Ray’s phone rang a few moments later and he immediately answered the call. 

“What do you mean by no footage could be found.” He asked with his voice raising

“If they are deleted, then certainly a great hacker like you can retrieve them. Do I need to telmach your your job?” 

“You can’t retrieve it? Then send me the drama that occurred in the children’s clothing stores earlier.” Ray disconnected the call and focused on driving. He was losing them and if he doesn’t focus, he would miss them. 

Soon, the car he was trailing sped up one more time and another black car blocked his path. Brfore he could focus on it again, the car had disappeared out of sight. 

“D amn!” He slapped the steering with his palms, just in time for his phone to ring again. 

“Have you sent the videos?” He asked. 

“No videos? What do you mean? There was no drama in any stores? Forget it!” Ray remembered that he had taken videos of the drama Jeslyn created, so he took his phone and went to his gallery. However, no matter how hard he tried, no videos showed up anywhere. 5
