After Scarlett was hospitalized and well-rested in their mansion.
She was allowed to start her first day at the company.
Though she begged her father not to assign bodyguards around her because it will only be a hindrance to her.
One of the things that Scarlett has similarity with the original character of Scarlett Pride was…
Both of them doesn't want unnecessary attention.
Growing up, Scarlett got used to be just in the background.
Unnoticeable and just… be an average person living her own life.
But this time around her circumstance was totally different from her previous life.
Not matter how much she pondered on the sudden changes in her realities.
There was one thing for sure.
…
'I NEED TO LIVE!'
'I MUST SURVIVE!'
'I WILL FORGE MY OWN PATH!'
…
Seriously thought by Scarlett to herself.
…
Then the limousine stopped in the middle of the road.
"What's wrong this time, Sir Dominguez?" Scarlett wondered at their sudden halt.
…
<<_According to the original story, Sir Dominguez was a middle-aged man, a loyal hunter under the Pride Family. He devoted his life in serving the Pride Family just like the chief of staff due to his eternal gratitude to the noble family. His parents and children were all being well taken care of by the Pride Family. Allowing his entire family to live in a secured and provided life._>>
…
"There is some accident ahead. And looks like no one seems to notice yet." Sir Dominguez informed Scarlett.
She could not help it but feel concerned for those who are in need of help.
Stepping out of the car and rushed her way to help.
"Miss Pride!" Sir Dominguez did not expect for the only daughter of the headmaster of Pride Family to step out of the car.
"Just call for help!" Scarlett instructed Sir Dominguez.
…
Scarlett assessed the surroundings and the situation.
'The smoke seems to signify it just happened and the wheels of the car is still warm. The accident may have occurred just before we reached this area.'
Just before Scarlett could check the passengers, a young man stepped out from the car.
Bleeding and coughing.
Scarlett tried to help but the man turned Scarlett's hand away.
"I don't need your help. Go on, I can handle this on my own." The young man was clearly wounded and was trying to shun Scarlett away.
Not letting her get involved with his personal matters.
"I can see your blonde hair bleached with your own blood. So definitely, you are not okay! And kindly stop acting like a tough guy. Because you are wounded!" Scarlett retorted.
Sir Dominguez followed Scarlett after calling for an ambulance and help.
Reporting their location and describing the nature of the accident.
"Miss Pride! I already called for help and they are on their way."
…
The blonde young man was about to say something but he lost consciousness.
Scarlett caught him on time before hitting the ground.
"Sir? Sir? Stay with me! Don't sleep!"
She looked around if there was anyone who could help her.
Only trees surrounding them.
The long narrow road that seems to be strangely not busy.
And some other wounded passengers inside.
'I need to prioritize who needs help first.' Scarlett contemplated.
…
As Scarlett checked the pulse of the wounded young man, she noticed his pulse weak and barely steady.
Until he stopped breathing.
Not responsive.
And possibly may have died on Scarlett's arms.
"I need to resuscitate him. I need to perform CPR on him!" Scarlett prompted her immediate action.
"Sir Dominguez help the other passengers, I will handle this! So, go help the others!"
Sir Dominguez was astonished at the quick thinking and concern of Scarlett for a stranger.
Unfazed at the worrisome situation they have encountered.
…
Placing the wounded young man on the ground flat.
Resuscitating him.
Trying her best to keep him alive.
…
After her few tries, the young man started to breathe again but remained half conscious.
He opened his eyes, seeing a beautiful woman with a red velvet hair.
Radiating beauty and her enchanting brown eyes.
A rare sight to behold.
He never knew such a person could have an enchanting effect just by staring at someone else's eyes.
"THANK GOD! YOU ARE BREATHING!"
The young man could barely keep his consciousness together.
'Oh angel of mine, don't go!' the young man thought he was saved by an angel.
Trying to reach for Scarlett's face.
"Don't worry the ambulance is almost here!" Scarlett reassured the wounded young man.
…
~Moments after~
The ambulance and a medical team arrived to rescue the wounded.
And Sir Dominguez reminded Scarlett about her father.
"Right! We need to go now. I guess the medic will do a brilliant job in saving their lives. Now, I need to hurry before my father gets worried again." Scarlett told Sir Dominguez.
He looked at her like there was something really wrong.
But Scarlett was unaware of how she looked.
"You will meet your father looking like that?" Sir Dominguez pointed out the physical appearance of Scarlett.
Then she realized, "Yeah right! We need to buy new clothes first!"
Returning to the car unbothered and she took a last glance on the wounded ones.
"What do you think caused the accident, Sir Dominguez?" Scarlett wondered.
"It can be anything Miss Pride! Important thing is you saved them."
"WE SAVED THEM!" She emphasized that she did not do it alone.
"Let's go Sir Dominguez… I am already late for my first day at work!"
…
<*>-<*>-<*>-<*>
Somewhere in the central region…
A mansion owned by one of the royal family members was heavily guarded,
Seated on a bleacher by the balcony on the roof top.
"How was the mission I gave you?" the handsome man with a dark hair asked his warrior kneeling in front of him.
"We made it look like an accident… No one will be suspicious of a foul play!"
"Did you make sure that my older brother, Kratos, won't survive that accident?"
Thinking about the right words to say.
Or else it can be his last moments.
"Well…" hesitating to say that the eldest prince lived.
It became apparent that there was a problem in the mission.
"I guess you did not make sure of it. My orders were very precise."
He began to raise his voice.
"NO SURVIVORS! AND KRATOS DIES!"
…
"But Prince Owen…" before the man could finish his statement, the prince stabbed him by the heart.
By only using his sharp claws.
"I GUESS I HAVE TO CLEAN THIS MESS NOW BY MYSELF!"
A vicious look on his eyes could be seen while he stared at his warrior die.
Shrouded with sinister…
And evil schemes…
