Lockwood Industries
Meeting room
” What are the numbers?”
“Sir….I…..”
“I said tell me how much it comes to total dammit!!”
“6 with 5 zeroes sir…but we are still investigating”
John said stepping back from Ashton in fear of getting something thrown his way.
Ashton’s eyes wi-de-ned listening to the numbers
“You mean to say $ 600000 vanishes in thin air without any audit trail!!
“No…no Sir…I mean I am sure someone is embezzling ”
“Of course it is embezzlement John for God sake tell me something I don’t know!!”
“There were…3 trans-”
“Get me the bank statement for last 6 months…and call the treasury head here ..right now!!”
“Ye..s Sir…I will ….I am going…”
“Just hurry up !! I will not leave that bas**** who dares to mess with my company!!
Sitting back on his seat Ashton ru-bbe-d his temples.
This was a hell lot of money and no one can do it unless they have access to his firewall and internal security.
His chain of thoughts was broken when his phone pinged with a message.
Come asap! Your wife is going to kill someone!!
-c@m£ron
Ashton’s eyes wi-de-ned re-ading the message and he re-re-ad it.
Where? What happened?
On street 11!! just come you will see.
pu-lling up his coat from the back of his seat he made his way out of his office dismissing all the meetings.
…………………………………………………….
c@m£ron stood there staring at her with hands placed in pockets and back resting on his car’s bonnet.
There were 2 men alre-ady trying to st©p the woman but he could see how badly they were failing.
With a sm-irk on hisl-ips, he saw her throw a punch at the man ma-king everyone else to scream in horror and for him to laugh.
“Elle plea-se dear calm down!! He said he is sorry child!”
An older lady said pleading, afraid of all the attention she was getting.
“This bas*** here just ran over you and you are taking his side!! The audacity of this man!! I will kill him!
!”
She was going for another kick when the “Jake” guy stood in front of her to get kicked instead and roll down on the floor seconds later.
Cam broke into another fit of laughter seeing such an amusing scene.
But she didn’t mind, jumping over Jake she had gr@bb£d the man from his collar was throwing killing looks at him.
“You didn’t even st©p your car after hitting her!! You think just because you are rich you can treat others like dirt!!”
“Just leave my collar lady!! I will sue you for m©l£sting me!! I am going to call the cops!!
He said trying to maintain his distance from her and fearing another punch any second.
“Go ahead !! Call them…you will be the one behind bars in a hit and run case!”
Seb helped Jake get up while whispering in his ear.
“Bro I told you she is insane!
Jake ignored him and went forward to gr-ab Elle from her w@!st.
pu-lling her back he whispered in her ears to only get hurt by her elbow in his stomach.
“Just leave me, Jake!! Didn’t you see how he nearly killed her!”
Jake sighed while holding his stomach
“That’s… that’s not our matter Elle …just leave-”
“What is your matter lady? Here I am giving the compensation for her injuries and she is willing to take it…why are you interfering!!”
“Compensation?? Well, I will compensate for this then!”
With this, she picked up a stone and before anyone could realise she had thrown it on the windshield of his Ferrari.
A glas-s breaking sound was heard followed by police sirens.
Cam again laughed liking this girl a hundred times more.
“Oh, boy Ash’s reaction will be epic!”
…………………………………………………
He couldn’t reach the scene as there was a traffic jam on the said street.
The honking was ma-king him lose the little bit of patience he was trying to build.
Getting out of the car he made his way to the centre of the commotion.
There stood 2 police cars and one red Ferrari.
The windshield of the Ferrari was broken and a window had a big crack on it.
His gaze next went to an old lady standing at the side getting her arm and knees bandaged.
Her gaze was fixed on someone and he followed it.
But what he saw next made him push throu-gh the gathered crowd and move forward.
In the centre stood his not so beautiful wife.
Her bun all loose on her head, eyes furious and her tiny hands pushing back a man double her size.
Her one Louboutin missing on her feet.
Pencil Sk-irt up till mid-th!ghs and stance of getting re-ady to pounce next.
“Ma’am plea-se…let us handle… plea-se move back”
The police officers were pleading and so were Jake and another man with him.
Ashton c@m£ behind her and with a strong grip on her w@!st, lifted her off her feet.
“Let me go you-”
Her words got lost when her back was pressed on his che-st and he whispered in her ear.
“Elle. enough!!”
The subdued anger in his voice made her still her struggles.
With her feet still in the air and her hands clutching his embr@ced arms on her w@!st she tried to explain.
“Ashton….he nearly killed her!! She was wounded …and..and he just left her …I threw a stone on his window..only then he st©pped…-”
Ashton was not re-ady for any explanations.
He just wanted to sort this she** and get back to work.
“Just shut it, Elle!! Later!!
She could s-en-se his anger in waves, he was not in the mood to take anyone’s sh** right now
“Mr Lockwood I am sorry to say but this man just placed press charges on your wife…he-”
“How dare he!! He nearly killed someone!! Why are you not arresting him..I-”
“Elle!! ”
He roared ma-king everyone shiver in fear.
“Cam just take her”
He said sighing and motioning Cam to take her to the car.
Cam nodded pu-lling Elle but she refused.
“I am not going till this man is thrown behind bars!! Aunty is so badly hurt and he-
“Mrs Lockwood we are doing the investigation… plea-se co-operate”
“What investigation? When I am telling you I saw it with my own eyes !!”
“Ma’am plea-se”
The officers were nearly pleading.
“Elle, plea-se ”
Jake said ma-king her look at him.
“Jake how can-”
Ashton has had enough.
Before she could utter another word of nons-en-se he had lifted her light b©dy on his shoulders.
She screamed in horror and started thrashing her legs.
ma-king Ashton place one hand behind her knees he locked her movement.
Her hair was now loose from their bun cascading down his back.
People stared but he didn’t care.
“My stomach is hurting..ahh…put me down!!”
He didn’t pay heard to any of her cries and walked with long confident steps.
Placing her on the pas-s£nger seat he tra-pped her to st©p her from running out.
“One word from your side…one protest and you are going behind bars”
Her eyes wi-de-ned in surprise at his threat.
She did want to give her explanation but st©pped when the scene of her going behind bars with that man entered her mind.
He had pressed charges against her and no wonder prison was calling for her.
“Just stay put inside and don’t you dare complicate this any further”
Her downcasted eyes gave him the answer he wanted.
Slamming the door shut to her seat he locked the car still not trusting her.
Moving towards the officer he nodded for them to continue.
“Sir according to this man’s statement your wife had punched him twice and held his collar once.
Not only that she had broken his car’s windows calling for public m©l£st@t!onand haras-sment-”
Ashton’s show of hand made him st©p.
“And why she did it officer?”
“Well according to the witnesses his car hit the lady ma-king her get hurt, i n order to st©p him your wife threw the stone at his window”
“Well that’s fine then…she catches the culprit and you officer are saying you have to arrest her?”
“No..Sir…I mean Sir Lockwood we appreciate her help but this man here-”
Ashton turned to look at the one who did this all
“Do I nee-d to tell you who you are dealing with?”
The man was scared alre-ady realising the fact that the girl was Ashton’s wife.
“No…I mean she is your wife so I won’t but still, it was not proper on her p@rt to hold a man’s shi-t like that and hit me…she is a girl so I didn’t react otherwise I would have taugh-”
Ashton gr@bb£d his shi-t and pu-ll-ed him towards him.
Anger seething throu-gh him at the very thought of someone tou-ching her.
“Otherwise what? I am a man and I am holding your shi-t.. so tell me what you would have done?”
His expression turned to fear as he tried to laugh at his request.
“Mr Lockwood…how can I…I was just ”
“Man up and accept your mistakes next time! Don’t run like a fv¢k*** coward!
He nodded in reply and Ashton moved back, done with him.
“Mr Lockwood I am really sorry for the inconvenience..”
The officer said asking everyone to clear the place.
“s£nd me the damages..you know my address”
The officer nodded ma-king Ashton turn his back towards him and walk towards his car.
She was staring at him all the time.
Excited to see him hold the collar of that man.
Wishing for another punch at his face and ego.
Ashton sat on the driver seat re-ady to ignite the engine when his eyes landed on her missing heel.
“Where is your Louboutin?”
“Huh?”
She looked down at her feet to see her one heel missing.
ru-bbing her n£¢k she spoke in awkwardness.
“I….I may have..thrown it on him”
She peeked to see his knuckles turn white on the steering wheel.
“You see I told you…these clothes are not for me….I mean what good are these pencil Sk-irts if I can’t kick with them and what good are those Louboutins if they can’t break a glas-s?”
He looked at her not believing a girl like her existed.
She was declared, proven and tested insane.
Her smile vanished seeing his scowl and she decided to pl@ywith the hem of her Sk-irt.
To only see it torn from the side.
Placing her hand on it she showed as if nothing happened.
“St©p creating problems in my life, Elle!! I alre-ady have a lot on my plate”
He said closing his eyes while resting her head on the seat.
“I didn’t ask you to come here!! I could have managed it well plus Jake, Seb everyone was here!”
“Yaa and no wonder that Miller guy was kicked and elbowed by you”
Her eyes wi-de-ned in surprise.
“No, I didn’t do that!! Did…did I seriously did that!!”
His silence made her feel guilty now, she hoped Jake was fine.
“You are one crazy bi** when you are angry Mrs Lockwood”
The words even though rude didn’t hurt her.
“Is he fine? Where is he”
She said trying to locate him in the dispersing crowd.
“He is fine”
“But why did they tried to st©p me..instead they should have attacked that man…you know he was such an arrogant bas*-”
“That was not your business Elle!! Why do you go around poking your nose in everything and calling for trouble?”
“Not my business? How could you say that…that man he hurt that lady!! He didn’t ev-”
“So what Elle!! You are not some superwoman for god sake!! You could have just helped the lady and that was it!”
“But-”
“Enough alre-ady!! I just can’t argue with you anymore!”
She saw him getting out of the car.
“Where are you going now!?”
“To get your fli-ppin’ Louboutins!”
And then she smiled seeing such a big and powerful man as him holding her heel in his hands and ma-king his way towards her with c@m£ras cl!çk!ng and people whispering.
………………………………………….
“Ma’am your work was done! What next?”
The lady smiled twirling the glas-s of wine in her hands.
“We wait”
“But ma’am he is a very powerful man! He will definitely find out we are behind this!”
Her silence was troubling for the man who had beads of sweat on his forehead.
“And that’s what I want”
He was shocked to know this, he doesn’t want to go behind bars when he has 3 stomachs to feed.
“But…ma’am…”
“Just relax, this is just the beginning”
She had an evil smile on her face as she thought of her next plan.
“Ashton Lockwood will be going down and that also in next 30 days.
Not dealing with WV chemicals will cost you heavily Ashton Lockwood.
What you saw 23 years back was just a glimpse of my power”
With a wicked smile, she gulped the full glas-s of wine.
The man for dismissed and he cleaned his sweat with a handkerchief.
Sighing he c@m£ out of the large estate with just one thought in his mind.
“Just what the hell has happened 23 years back?”

………2 3 years back……………
Flashback 2
11:21pm
A child stood in a deserted street of a town with a pack of gummy bears in his hand.
He was smiling while opening the packet unaware of the frights of the night.
As the first bear was placed on hisl-ips a shout was heard in the background ma-king him freeze in shock.
“plea-se… plea-se…leave me!!”
The cries of pain and help fell on his ears and he couldn’t help move away from the scene.
His tiny legs just wanted to go home with the big packet in his hands.
hvgging the packet to his che-st he made his way towards the street which was illuminated.
But it didn’t go as planned.
5 black cars st©pped on the road in front of him and he shielded himself behind a pole.
Too innocent to realise that the pole was not wi-de enough to hide him.
His scared eyes took in the figure stepping out of the luxurious car.
Her hair was as black as the night contrasting her pale skin.
With a long fur coat covering her figure she screamed power and authority.
Around 12 men stepped out of the cars following her as she led the way.
She was coming his way and he was trembling with fear.
Trying not to make eye contact with her he looked down.
His tiny hands ti-ght£ñed their grip on the packet of gummy bears to only make everything st©p.
In the silence of the night, the sound of a wra-pped had called for unnecessary attention.
Her eyes have landed on the small boy standing in the corner.
As soon as he looked up, he nearly pissed in his p@n-ts.
She had seen him.
Her eyes looked at one of the men behind her and the man alre-ady knew what he has to do.
gr-abbing onto the little boy he pressed his hand on the boy’s mouth to silence his cries.
He was taken along inside to reach the location where the cries of pain were heard a few seconds before.
His eyes watched the scene and he nearly puked.
It looked like a warehouse with cartons surrounding them.
He could see something white stuffed in some while ammunitions in other.
In the centre of all this was red.
Blood coating the wooden floor where an immobile b©dy la-id.
Everyone bowed to the lady as they entered.
The boy guessed right her position.
“Any information?”
“Yes ma’am! He gave us the location”
She simply nodded with a bored look on her face.
Proceeding to check the packed cartons she lifted the white packets with her gloved f!ngers.
On getting satisfied she nodded and turned to leave.
“Ma’am, what do we do with him?”
The man asked pointing to the half-dead b©dy on the floor.
The sound of her cl!çk!ng heels st©pped as she gives her reply
“Finish him and change the base”
The little boy couldn’t help skrie-k in surprise.
Was killing someone that easy as she said he wondered.
Didn’t god had the right to do that, he thought.
His innocent scream made her step towards him.
She crouched down at his level ma-king him step back in fear.
But the man holding him just pushed him forward.
Her manicured nails trailed the tears on his cheeks and she smiled.
“You can be of good use little thing, why don’t you join me?”
He couldn’t utter a word, his eyes were stuck at her beautiful face wondering just one thing.
How can a beautiful face like her hide so much evil?
How can she talk so sweet but act so bad?
He was scared no doubt but he still wanted to survive.
His parents are waiting for him.
He will go back to them tonight.
With the hidden courage in him, he managed to move his head in a no.
Looking into her eyes with newfound courage.
She was surprised.
The fire in his eyes surprised her for a second.
He was too br@ve for a 5-year-old for sure.
Men crawled at her feet for mercy and this boy here was looking into her eyes with determination.
Interesting she thought.
With a smile on her face, she stood up and placed her hand on his silky brown hair.
“I like you”
With this, she ordered something to his men and they nodded.
pu-lling the little boy along they were ma-king their way to the cars when Ashton managed to bite on the man’s wrist.
The person skrie-ked in surprise while Ashton ‘s tiny legs only made him reach the deserted road.
He couldn’t look back.
He didn’t want to.
The men were re-ady to follow when the lady st©pped them.
“But ma’am he saw everything…how can we let him go like that!”
She didn’t reply instead sitting inside the car she dialled a number.
“Yes ma’am”
“Kill both of them”
“Yes ma’am…but there is a boy on the road as well, shall I …?
“No, leave him”
The packet of gummy bears la-id soa-ked in the rain as the boy ran for his life.
