Chapters (15)
“Oh my God! This is not The Rage Room! What’s going on?”
The look of sheer terror on Eden’s face made Jermaine soften.
“Edy, something happened, and I have to go to the office…”
“Go to the office? It’s Sunday,” Eden said as though she didn’t believe him.
Jermaine was General Counsel for Le Bleu Luxury Hotels. Though he was always on call, having to go into the office on a Sunday was something he never had to do.
“Jermaine-”
“I have to go to the office because somehow my VPN was corrupted, and my system was compromised. I gotta go sort some things out,” Jermaine said as he grabbed his keys and ran out the door.
The terror on Jermaine’s face filled Eden with pride. She felt like a proud psycho after unleashing chaos and destruction onto the world.
“Wait until the local news spreads this story and your face is all over the city,” Eden smirked as she watched Jermaine back out the driveway and drive like a bat out of hell.
The hate that radiated through her body felt like a toxin. She had worshipped the ground this man walked on, now the very sight of him made her want to slit his throat. But she couldn’t do that to him. Death would be too easy. She needed him to feel every bit of psychological anguish that she had in store for him.
Envy pulled up behind Eden’s SUV without a care in the world. She had done this routine so often that it was normal for her. As much money as Eden made from traveling, she was too cheap to pay for long term parking at the airport. Instead, she preferred to call a ride share service and leave her car parked at home for free.
“I should key this piece of shit,” Envy thought as she stared at the shiny black SUV.
It didn’t matter to her that she drove a BMW, what mattered was the fact that Eden also drove a BMW and had enough money to purchase a $80,000 SUV just to run errands. Envy walked past the Wagoneer; she nicked the paint as she walked to the front door. She opened the door as if she were the queen of the castle.
“Honey, I’m home-”
“So am I,” Eden said as she raised the baseball bat and knocked Envy out cold.
Eden looked down at her younger sister and felt absolutely nothing. No pang of guilt, no indecisiveness, no emotion. She was no more than an intruder.
“You had the audacity to walk into my house and take your dress off and announce your presence. I don’t feel bad for anything I’m going to do to you tonight. You deserve everything. You backstabbing ass bitch,” Eden seethed as she looked down at her unconscious sister.
