Chapter 100:

Long after Calhoun placed Ariana in the car and started driving to his grandparents villa, she couldn't get over the complement he gave her. Her cheeks had taken a permanent pink hue and no matter how hard she tried to stir the thought out of her head it refused to go. It remained as a stone imprint sitting there in her head and constantly bringing butterflies to life at a pace that was killing.

"Ariana, we are here," Calhoun whispered.

Ariana snapped out of her daze and looked around. They were in front of the biggest mansion she had ever seen. Not even the movies could act out a scene in a house like this. Her ryes were almost falling out of their sockets as she looked around her.

The building was painted white and the sun reflection on it made it seem like she was looking at the heavenly gates.

There was a large fountain by the center of the compound that housed a statue of Cupid the god of love.

    The whole room went as quiet as a grave yard as everyone watched Calhoun for a reaction after Lily's comment. Her husband pinches her from under the table and she throws him a stern look. She was tired of playing nice games here. They were calming having a nice day in their part of the mansion when grandfather imposed the dinner on them just because Calhoun was bringing some pauper over for family introduction. "Benson, control your wife we have a guest here!" Grandmother yelled from beside Ariana who was gradually shrinking back into Calhoun who stood fuming beside her. "If the members of this family don't want to meet up with my Ariana, then it is fine..." He trailed holding her hand firmly. "We can leave!" Calhoun announced already turning around to leave. His uncle and his family had a way of bringing out the worst in him. "No!" Grandmother shrieked staring at her husband for help. Grandfather took a deep breathe and raised his hands. "Calhoun, please bring your fiance to the

    Chapter 102:"Calhoun no one is trying to put her on the chopping seat, we are only being concerned," Grandfather blurted and this made Calhoun even more angry. This was the least he expected from him.He got up briskly and held Ariana's hand pulling her to her feet. "Fine! Since no one wants to respect my decision for my life. We will take our leave now!" He barked turning to leave.Grandmother wanted to go after him but grandfather gave her a stern look. "We have spoilt the boy too much. We are only trying to look out for him!" He repeated sternly.Lily adjusted in her seat with excitement. "Finally you both can see that!" She said under her breath.Aunt Bianca got to her feet and wet after them, ignoring her father's stern eyes. If they all felt Ariana wasn't good enough for their Calhoun, she didn't. "Calhoun, my boy, please don't be like this," she begged.Lily rolled her eyes in satisfaction that the dinner got ruined and grandfather didn't seem to like the girl Calhoun had brou

    "Perfect! We should go check out the new art shop I saw in downtown!" Elsie exclaimed happily. She pulled Ariana by the arm and dragged her towards her car.Calhoun's eye started twitching as he watched Ariana go with Elsie. "Elsie!" He roared but Elsie turned a deaf ear as she pulled her small beetle car open and pushed Ariana in.Elsie was harmless. But the family had really pissed him off and he was hoping to have Ariana to himself. He didn't plan to have her going for some crazy art shopping this evening! He needed to be with her.Out of experience, he knew that Elsie's car would take at least five minutes before it started. Calhoun, took his time and walked to where she was parked. He went to Ariana's side of the car and leaned over so he could be on the same eye level as her."Where do you think you are going?" He asked in a cold voice.Ariana looked at Elsie who was still struggling with her car keys and turned back to Calhoun. "She asked me to go someone where with her..." She

    "Aria, come on, tell me what happened? How was the Lawson family? Any favourites already?" Lisa kept going on the phone.It was early Monday morning and Ariana had just gotten to work. She was trying to set up everything for the day before Calhoun came and working became even harder because she knew he wanted to talk to her but she wasn't sure she was ready for any sort of conversation yet. It was crystal clear, his family didn't approve of her in anyway. He was only forcing his decision on them."Aria! Hello! Are you even listening to me?" Lisa yelled on the phone."Lisa, can we have this conversation later? I really can't do this now," Ariana said in a tired tone. She didn't have the energy Lisa was looking for that morning or anytime at that."Come on, Aria! You have been like this since last night! When am I ever going to get information! I need details girl!" She yelled.Ariana could hear the excitement in her best friend's voice but she just didn't have it in her to break the ne

    Chapter 105:Lily was excited none had come to blow her up. Certainly, Benson had been right. Calhoun wasn't in the office."If you want your little low life to be safe, then you will go as far away from him as possible! Do you understand?" Lily yelled gripping the ends of the table with her gloved hand."I am not a gold digger," Ariana tried to explain herself. The Lawson family were misunderstanding her. She wasn't after Calhoun for his money. In fact she wasn't after him. He came after her and her stubborn heart kept racing for him. This wasn't her fault."I don't care darling! Whether you are a gold digger or a thief or a prostitute! I don't give a damn! Neither does the rest of the family! We just want our Calhoun to be free from your pointy hands!" She added with fierceness.Ariana felt her eyes itch and she knew she would cry at any moment but she tried to hold on to the little self esteem she had left.Lily Lawson got up from the seat and picked up her bottle. She uncorked it

    Chapter 106:"Is there a problem?" Alice asked with her nose scrunched upward in an irritating stance.Lily had taken her outside and they were now far away from the office. This way Mr. Lawson would never know what she was up to."I heard you had eyes for Calhoun," Lily said with mischief dancing in her eyes.Alice nose returned to its normal position as she now saw Lily as an angel. "Yes, I do. I really do!""I can help you..." Lily snarled letting her words hang in the air to create the perfect atmosphere. She needed Alice to be wrapped around her fingers like a little doll."Oh, tell me, how can I get him?" Alice asked her desperation flowing out of her like the water gushing down in a waterfall.Lily smiled. Now she was getting somewhere. "Alice, we can't talk here. My father will get suspicious. I don't want it to seem like I am selling the family or anything but Calhoun needs someone like you in his life.""Yes, and I keep telling him but he doesn't want to listen to me!" Alice

    The security let her car pass through the gates and Lily sat back calmly as the driver maneuvered his way to the parking space allocated to them. The amount of cars in the compound was enough to make Lily's head spin. This was the kind of life style she had always wished to live. Not the one Benson was making her live. When she had married him, she thought they were going to rule over the entire Lawson property. But the story turned out differently. Now that had to change. As soon as she got this deal done, she was going to take over the Lawson Group."Ma'am, we are here," the driver said.She had been so deep in her thoughts, she didn't realize the driver had opened the door and was waiting for her to alight from the car. She ran her fingers into her hair to fix it and then checked her face one more time on her small pancake mirror, to make sure she still looked perfect and when she was satisfied, she stepped out."Lily Lawson!" Alice said coming to greet her. "I am so sorry my secur

    The maid came in with a tray of food and they paused their conversation to accommodate her. She respectfully placed the food on a side table close to them and took her leave once again."Alice, I have told you to relax. You have nothing to fear as long as you have me on your side," Lily said as she picked up a glass of orange juice and took a sip."Especially, now that I know she is such a cruel little whore! Why would I let my dear nephew get involved with her?""But aunt, Calhoun doesn't even want to see me! He has categorically thrown me out of his life. He doesn't take my calls. He doesn't respond to my mails. I don't know how I am supposed to make him love me when he won't even give me a chance," Alice whined.Lily took a piece of cake from the tray of food and placed it in her mouth. "Don't worry about that. I will handle Calhoun. All you have to do is handle this little error of a human."Alice nodded happily. Now that there was a member of the Lawson family on her side, she ha

    (EPILOGUE)A soft knock resonated against Lim and Laura's bedroom door. Laura was in the bathroom and she had left Lim still sprawled on the bed with their handsome son.She expected him to have answered the door but when the knock resonated again, she hurriedly rinsed off the soap from her body and hurried out of the bathroom with a towel sparsely tied around her body."Lim, didn't you hear the door?" She hissed as she made her way to the door."I pay them to handle things in the house not bring every little thing to me... I am tired..." He mumbled softly against his son's head.Laura couldn't help but roll her eyes. Lim was a changed person but sometimes he couldn't help but be cruel at the smallest of things.She ignored him and went to pull the door open. There was her maid standing with her head lowered to the floor."I am sorry for disturbing your afternoon ma'am but the driver taking you to the venue is here... You said I should let you know..."Laura smiled. "Oh, thank you so

    LOST IN YOUR ARMS: (NEW)"Laura, you need to eat more," Jasmine said as she kept filling the plate with more beef meatballs. But Laura never paid her any attention. Her advice was like extra water to an ocean.For the past three days, she had become a food monster. She couldn't do anything without eating. She even woke up early in the morning to get food from the kitchen. Was that how pregnancy changed women? To night thieves?"Don't you think you'll turn her into a fatty?" Charles asked. He was sitting on the other side of the dining table with Dennis."That's none of your business! She is pregnant and she needs to eat more!" Jasmine retorted."Whatever..." Charles rolled his eyes and turned to Dennis, who was busy biting off his meatballs with both hands like a hungry lion. When he noticed that his hands were stained with the stew from the food, he dropped the fork in his hands and started licking his fingers.Charles got irritated by this and made pulled up a scowl that said exact

    Marcus opened his eyes and the first thing that welcomed him was darkness. He looked around, desperate to see the surrounding he was in but it was difficult to see through the darkness. He should have known that Lim had a mind of his own. As far as he could remember, back in the abandoned house, he heard the sirens of the police cars outside. Wondering if Lim was ready to damage the family's reputation name by exposing them to the public as kidnappers. At first, that was what he thought but to his disappointment, the little boy had another plan.After the police left and they got moved, he became deeply concerned with what Lim was going to do to him and Thomas. Maybe being exposed to the police was going to be a better option.Fear suddenly cupped him. He became edgy like a psychopath. He had to free himself at all costs before the devil laid a hand on him.Just as he was about to move, he found out he was cuffed against a chair. "Fuck! I'm tied!" He grumbled in frustration. Then,

    The police officer's eyes were strained on Lim's injured arm. He was eager to help in any way that he could but Lim waved him off."Don't worry, it is just a mere scratch. My woman is more important now. I need to leave.""Alright, sir!" The police officer saluted again.Lim turned to Charles and gestured to him, using an eye look that only the two of them understood."Don't worry, I can handle the situation here. You need to get Laura to the hospital. Go!" Charles said.Lim nodded and made to move but Steve shouted behind him."I'm coming too!"Lim glared over his shoulder. "Suit yourself!" he said and got into the car that had just parked in front of him. Steve ran the rest of the distance and also jumped into the car before the driver pulled off.The atmosphere in the car was thick as the two of them faced opposite sides, never saying a word to the other.Steve could not stop blaming himself. He wanted to speak out but he didn't want to anger the devil that was beside him.Soon, t

    Her hands were covered in blood.The world went silent as her eyes scanned the man in her arms. Her heart was dragging painfully down her throat and she thought she would pass out from the pain."Lim!" Laura screamed in horror.Instantly, the men pushed Marcus down on the floor with great force. They were red with anger, both at themselves for letting this happen and at Marcus. How dare a rat like him shoot at their boss in their presence!?Marcus couldn't believe he blocked the shot. The bullet wasn't aimed at Lim but at Laura. She was the target Marcus had planned to shoot but stupid Lim took the hit instead. Marcus was so stunned that, his body became numb. Even as Lim's men continued beating him, he couldn't feel a thing.Their plan was completely messed up!Thomas, on the other hand, couldn't do a thing but stare at his brother with pitiful eyes. Lim's men were kicking and punching Marcus. Blood seeped out of him yet no sound came out.Thomas couldn't do anything to help him. H

    "Why don't you take a seat?" Marcus stated, motioning to the couch in the corner of the room, just across the bed.Thomas moved briskly to the side and took Lim's gun.Lim gritted his teeth as his eyes shifted to Laura. She was so scared, he could feel it in his bones. He knew she wanted to say something due to the movement of her eyes but she couldn't, because of the gag in her mouth.Lim's heart squeezed in pain. He felt like an erupting volcano, but he couldn't bring himself to that state, he had to stay calm for the safety of Laura.He composed himself and sat on the couch with his legs crossed. Trying to be in a character that would not show his anger."So, where should we start?" He asked them with a smirk.Marcus smiled and gestured to Thomas to handle the files. As Thomas messed with the papers, Lim's eyes moved over the room, that was when he noticed Brent, tied up and left sprawled on the bed. "Hmm..." Lim sighed and raised an eyebrow. His brothers must have had another pl

    As soon as the call ended, a grin of excitement appeared on Marcus's lips. He was happy that everything was going according to plan.A few minutes from now, he would become the rightful CEO of Walter's occupation all thanks to the little dove he kidnapped.Speaking of the dove, he turned to look at the other side of the room where Laura was tied up on the bed hopelessly like a lamb.There was now a light in the room, enough for Laura to picture the faces of her kidnappers. She should have known that not all of Lim's family members liked him. But now it was too late, they had her.The smile on Marcus's face expanded. It was just amazing to watch fear and all crawl into the girl.He was grateful that she had come into Lim's life when she did because if it wasn't for her, they wouldn't have known how to get the mighty Lim to surrender."So what did he say?" Thomas, who was sitting on a couch with Brent by his side, asked his brother. Marcus turned to them with his hands in his pockets.

    Lim got down from his car in a hurry and rushed into the mansion, ignoring the servant's greetings at the doorway. Charles strode behind him trying to keep up with his speed. "Laura!" Lim called as soon as he entered the living room.His heart was thumping and panic was already flowing in his veins. He didn't want to think the worst, but at this point it was inevitable."Laura!" He called again. Not caring that he was being extremely loud."Lau—" Before he could complete his words, his father stepped out of his room into the living room looking wild."Lim, what's going on?" Old Walter asked from the stairs. He was walking down with the support of his butler, Mr May."Where is my wife?" Lim snarled like a wounded snake. His voice was filled with authority and anger so thick it was like a volcano.Old Walter looked at him quizzically. What was he saying? Wasn't the girl home yet?"Laura took her leave in the morning. Isn't she home yet?" Old Walter asked as he went down to the last st

    Lim tried almost ten times and yet, it still said the same thing. At this point, he couldn't put the feeling away, something was wrong."The line still says the same thing," Lim said worriedly. He had sweat all over his face from the pressure.Charles was having the same thoughts and as much as he tried to calm his friend, he couldn't bring up the right words. "Isn't Laura coming already?" Jasmine asked as she walked closer to them. Lim sighed and returned his phone to his trousers pocket. There was no time to waste, he needed to go to Walter's mansion and find out for himself what was happening."We're going to Walter's mansion!" Lim stated coldly and walked out of the room. His expression had changed to something so dark and scary that even Jasmine could feel the change in the atmosphere on her skin.Everywhere suddenly turned cold and it wasn't the good kind.She turned to Charles with a worried look. "Is everything okay? Why is Mr. Ice so cold?" She stared at Lim's retreating w
