"Selena? Why are you here?"

All of a sudden, a cold, stern voice sounded behind Selena.

She turned around and saw her step mother, Neely Rafferty, coming in from outside.

The bastard couple upstairs heard the noise and both craned their heads in the downstairs direction

A trace of anxiety flashed across Jeffrey Kentworthy's eyes, "Selena, why-why are you back?"

Selena Jones curled up her lips and stared at Jeffrey coldly. "This is my home. Why can't I be back?"

Isabel Jones who was still in Jeffrey Kentworthy's arm smirked with her red lips as she scorned, "Your home? This villa is no longer called the Jones Villa."

Selena frowned, "What do you mean?"

Isabel, who wore a short skirt and high heels, slowly came down the stairs, "Ten months ago, your dad Harrison Jones jumped from a building and commited suicide. He has left behind a masive debt, and if it were not for my nother, this villa was going to be taken away as collateral! So, this house no longer belongs to the Jones family. It now belongs to the Rafferty family!"

Jumped from the building... Suicide? How could that be?

Selena Jones grabbed Isabel's collar and shouted with anger, "What nonses are you spouting now? How could my father jump from a building and kill him self? Make your self clear, I warn you!"

"If you have some thing to say, just use your mouth! Why the hell are you using violence! Selena let go of me!"

With a loud bang, Selena was pushed onto the floor by Jeffrey. She felt a sense of pain which was like getting a sprain!

Her eyes were bloodshot, and she stared at Jeffrey and Isabel Jones, "Give my father back! You must have ganged up behind my back and cause his death!"

"Enough! Aren't you ashame, coming back here to ask about your dad? Where were you when he was riddled with troubles? You were missing for ten months and now you are back here saying that you miss your dad? Hmph! Your dad who had a short life was pushed to his death by his creditors.

"Impossible! I have wired three million dollars to his account! There is no way he would commit suicide as if his life was useless and hopeless!"

"Three million dollars? Hmph, what kind of a day dream is that? How were you able to get three million?"

Selena's head was abuzz, and as she stared venomously at Neely Rafferty, a frightening thought occured in her mind.

_Neely Rafferty, her father's second Wife, and her step mom must have stolen the three million dollars which she had exchanged her dignity and purity.

And that three million dollars were a rope to save her father's life!

Selena Jones was trembling with extreme rage, and even her voice was shaking. She sobbed, "Have you guys stolen that three million dollars? Did you guys push my father to his death? Give back my dad! Give him back to me!"

She clambered up from the floor and with the speed of light, she came into possession of a fruit knife which was lying idly on the table, and then she rushed towards Neely Rafferty and Isabel Jones.

"Ah-; she has gone crazy! Jeffrey! Stop this lunatic person now!"

Jeffrey Kentworthy grabbed her waist and locked them in place. The fruit knife flew out of her hand, slashed her arm and clanked onto the floor. Jeffrey then kicked it away.

Neely Rafferty glared at her cautiously as she roared, "Isabella, go fetch her father's Urn and give it to back to her!"

Selena Jones gasped at the Urn with her mouth wide open...

This was said to be her father's ashes..but did it really contain her father's ashes inside?

Neely Rafferty snatched the Urn away and tossed it at Selena, "The cementary is very expensive nowadays! And it is so not auspicious to put this at home! We will give it back to you! From now on, when you see us again, don't act like we knew each other!"

Selena hugged the Urn right, and her tears couldn't stop falling, "Dad...why did you jump from a building? I didn't even manage to see you for the last time yet, so how can you leave like this...you promise me to wait for my return..you promise me?"

"Take your father's ashes and get lost! Jeffrey! Kick her out of the house!"

Jeffrey Kentworthy harshly pulled her injured limb and pushed her out of the door with out any pity. He even tossed a twenty dollar bill at her out of "Kindness" and proclaimed finally, " Selena Jones, it's raining cats and dogs now. Go hail a taxi now! Never come back here again!"

She clutched the twenty dollars bill and refused, "Are you dismissing me like a begged?"

The twenty dollar bill was torn into pieces immediately and she finally flung the pieces at his face, "Jeffrey Kentworthy, what you and that Rafferty mother and daughter have done to me, I will make sure that in the future I will get my retribution no matter what it costs!"

Jeffrey flashed an inpatient expression as he slammed the door shut in her face!

The dust reached her pale face, and it felt terribly old.

Selena curled the Urn and dragged her exhausted body through the heavy downpour. Under the veil of the night sky, her shadow was stretched endlessly, forming a lonely image.

"Dad, I am bringing you home now..."

For an unknown period, Selena continued to treak through the rain until her knees plopped down onto a puddle of rain water after the remaining of her strength had gone out.

She carefully clutched the Urn in her embrace and shielded it from the rain. Her face was devoid of colors, and her lips were slightly curled, "Dad, I can't move any more, and we don't have a place called home any more..but one day, I will bring you back to your real home.."

In the raining sky, a flash of light pierced through the darkness.

A black luxurious limited edition Maybach screenched to a stop

In the car, a driver craned his head out of the car towards the weak, fragile figure on the road. He said nervously, "Mr Wright, some thing bad happened. I think I hit a woman."

The man had an ominous yet handsome face that was now hidden in the dark. His emotion couldn't be seen at first glance as he said coldly, "Pick her up and send her to the hospital."

The driver stormed out of the car and held the woman who had fainted on the ground into the car, but then he realized she was holding on an Urn in her arms.

Such a badluck...

He shook her violently but received no response. He then looked to the man aside, "Mr Wright..."

The man threw a glance at the Urn in her arms and said coldly "let's go"

The driver quickly went back to the driver seat and started the car.

The rain was getting heavier as the night fell.

It was dim inside the car. Andrew Wright looked at the woman lying beside him. Her dark hair was soaked wet and stuck all over her head. There was a long scratch on her arm that was still bleeding. She looked pathetic. It didn't show like she was a scammer.

The road was slippery due to heavy downpour, and her body shifted towards his thighs when the driver took an emergency turn.

Andrew Wright frowned, he looked down at the woman.

She was now facing down in between his legs, his face stiffened.

"Do I have to send you back to driving school Felix?"

Felix glanced at the rear mirror nervously, feeling embarrassed. Felix let out a few dry coughs and apologised, "I am sorry Mr. Wright, the rain today is too heavy."

Andrew Wright then moved the woman's body aside inside.

Her eyes were still tightly shut and there was no sign of consciousness. Andrew's gase darkened as he stared at the pair of pale looking lips.

....

Selena woke up in the hospital and saw a woman when she opened her eyes slowly.

"Selena, you are finally awake. You scared the hell out of me!"

Dolly Hadid? Her university mate and best friend.

Selena lifted her dried a d cracked lips, "How come you are here, Dolly, where is my baby?"

"Don't worry she is with my mum, feeding her!"

She then touched her chest. When she found her father's Urn has disappeared, she struggled to get up, "Dolly Hadid, have you seen my father's Urn? She asked nervously.

Dolly Hadid immediately helped her up, "it's here, it's here, don't get up, the doctor said you are weak."

Dolly handed her the Urn. Selena snatched it immediately from her and held it tightly in her arms as if it was a treasure.

After hearing briefly what happened to her family, Dolly Hadid cursed Neely Rafferty and her daughter and hugged Selena, "If I weren't here to visit my uncle's newborn, I won't have been able to bump into you. My uncle's family is at the next door, which is the infant VIP room. Since you don't have any where else to go, you can come stay at my late aunt's house. She is dead now and her family has relocated to London."

"Thank you so much Dolly for your help, but I don't think City M is safe for me and my baby anymore. Once I recover, I will move out of this country, I am afraid those people that took my child away might come back to take this other one. I need to leave from here, I can't risk losing my precious baby again."

"No need to thank me Selena, what are we best friends for." Dolly Hadid said. "Just give me a call when you travel out, okay?"

"Sure!"
