[Flashback]
Five-year-old Ashley looked around the glamorous room, her mouth slightly open in awe.
In the center were several couches surrounding a coffee table.
Marshal sat on one of them, engaged in a discussion with another man. Ashley couldn't understand what they were talking about. She was too busy admiring the room.
It was the first time Marshal had taken her somewhere with him. Like a father-daughter outing. Because of that, she had been secretly hoping they would get ice cream afterward.
But those innocent thoughts came to an abrupt halt when Scott suddenly stepped forward.
Standing beside her moments ago, he now walked toward the two men.
His footsteps barely made a sound.
Then—
BANG!
Ashley jolted. Her eyes widened in horror.
Scott had approached the men, pulled out a pistol, and shot the other man in the back of the head without hesitation.
The deafening gunshot echoed through the room. A sharp ringing filled her ears.
