'Get your pathetic face out of my sight, Scarlett! Every time I lay eyes on you, my blood boils a little hotter, and if you linger any longer."

"Believe me, I might just lose control and kill you right here," Jericho snarled venomously, his hand sweeping through the air like he was dismissing an annoying insect.
"Yes, sir..." Scarlett's voice trembled, her pride crushed beneath his harsh words.
She bowed deeply, her face etched with pain and shadowed by share.
Turning swiftly, she hurried away, shoulders hunched with humiliation.
Inside her chest, dread coiled tightly, eclipsing even her former rage.
Scarlett knew better than to entertain any reckless thoughts this time. If Owen Whitman, powerful and untouchable, had met such a brutal end, what chance did someone like her stand?
And with Jericho clearly aligned with Alex now, she knew her family could easily be next on the chopping block.
Everyone in town knew Jericho Kane was a lunatic, and lately, he'd grown even more unhinged since losing his prized governorship-almost as if he feared that damned slum doctor more than death itself.
After Scarlett vanished, a quiet moment passed before Bella moved closer and gently hugged her father, trying to reassure him.
"Father, Alex is kind-hearted. He'll forgive Scarlett eventually, I'm sure of it."
Jericho sighed deeply, then cast a speculative glance at his daughter. "Bella, tell me something honestly-do you have feelings for that boy?"
Alex was close to the King, after all.
Perhaps through Alex, he could claw his way back into power.
The idea swirled tantalizingly in his mind, brightening his grim expression.
'If that boy becomes my son-in-law, imagine how much better our lives could become!'
"What?" Bella stammered, her eyes widening in shock before her cheeks flooded scarlet.
"Father! How could you say something like that? Of course not!"
Jericho chuckled dryly, his lips curving into a knowing smile.
"It's alright, Bella. Your father wasn't born yesterday-I see more clearly than you realize. If you fancy someone, don't waste time denying it. Be brave enough to admit it."
Bella lowered her gaze, her voice shaking slightly as her neck flushed brighter. "Father, Alex saved my life-I'm simply grateful, nothing more."
Jericho laughed softly, amusement sparking in his
