A car stopped in front of a magnificently tall skyscraper,"We are here" Steve announced as soon as the car parked in front of the fascinating big building. Laura, who had been frustrated with this man that Jasmine had left with her was seated at the back. It had been a week now that Steve had changed all her plans from her regular routine , she no longer watched TV while eating snacks, or any junk food lazily ... All she did now was daily exercise to keep her body in shape! That had been her most frustrating week of all the weeks she had stayed in Canada.She rolled her eyes unpleasantly, and sighedJust at that moment, her eyes fell on something magnificent outside the car window. She was still trying to figure out where they were.She looked up at the building that had a huge sign with a name. The sign read 'The Brentwood Corporation'What were they doing at The Brentwood Corporation? Although she hadn't been to Canada before, she had watched numerous shows and news that had to do
Adams was stunned, he could not believe that Steve had abandoned his luxurious life to play escort to some unknown girl. He listened carefully to Steve's explanation but something bothered him, why keep the truth from the unknown girl when they could easily tell her? He glanced at Steve unpleased, they were hurting this girl's feelings! What if she eventually found out on her own that her best friend was the daughter of one of the wealthiest men in the country? It would break her heart and they will end up in a big mess!Adam, who certainly knew Steve would never abandon Jasmine since he loved her was kinda sad for Steve because he knew that she didn't feel the same about him.He knew how it hurt and how painful it was to love someone that didn't love you back, despite all these facts.Steve didn't want to lose his friendship with her even though she never accept him as more than that...Adam sighed, after recalling the past, he felt more pity for Steve. He still remembered that day J
Laura couldn't believe her eyes! She had gotten in for real! Her dream of modeling had miraculously become a reality! She couldn't wait to break this news to Steve and Jasmine..Excitedly she got off the stage with butterflies in her belly.. this was a dream come true.Back in the corridor..Adam was still saying rubbish, Steve rolled his eyes, explaining things to Adam stressed him out big time and he was taking too much of his time, Laura was probably done with her audition and waiting somewhere."Adam, why don't we go back to the audition hall? Laura must be waiting for me""Aww, you sure a darling. You don't want to keep your girlfriend waiting, huh ?"Really? Adam was being unreasonable! He just told him about the relationship between him and the girl. He was guiding her and helping her set herself up in the new country, there was nothing more! Why was Adam still suggesting he had a relationship with the girl?Yeah, she's indeed beautiful but that didn't mean he had abandoned hi
In a well furnished office filled with beautiful, well designed, exquisite looking furniture, was a tall mesmerizing figure on the office sofa going through some files on the desk. His handsome face was clouded like a darkened storm. His expression showed no sight of happiness in it Just then, a gentle hand knocked on the door, "Come in" he answered coldly, Immediately, the door opened, a man in black suit came in. He bowed before carrying on. "Young master, there is news about the girl " the man in black said, his head was down, afraid to look into the eyes of the figure seated on the couch. He raised his face to the man standing in front of him. "What do you mean?" His husky voice asked, The man in black, swallowed before answering "Charles, had gotten the information on the location of the girl Laura. She called her friend today and from her friend's tapped line we got to know that she is living in Canada now" A sadistic smile played on his lips, what good news indeed! After
The man didn't seem to care about the girl who was struggling. She didn't want to give in easily, no she couldn't allow this beast to have her again, she watched in horror as he took her towards his room, she tried with all her strength to fight him, but all seemed to be in vain. It seemed the more she fought him, the more excited the man became, it was sick. "Just the way I want you, restless!" He sneered lustfully at her, Laura couldn't believe what was happening, how did she end up here in the first place? There were so many questions that was running through her head, when she see that struggling wasn't working, she decided to plead with the man in the mask, maybe he would listen to voice of reason. "Please, let me go.. please" she begged, but the masked man played dead ears to her words. He took her up the stairs until he got to a room where he slammed the door opened and kicked it shut behind him. Laura saw that the room only had a bed and nothing more, she swallowed her fea
She was still scared to put his dick in her mouth she had never done anything like that before and just the thought of doing that horrified her, But she dare not defy his words, the masked man was waiting patiently for her to begin. After a few moments , she sill hadn't started what she was told to do ... She was still thinking about what she could do to get out of this impossible situation. "Suck on it baby girl!" He said again impatiently, the girl was taking his silence for granted.... "You don't want me to force it in, do you?" Immediately, Laura shook her head, if she allowed him, it would be much worse. .. it was better for her to do it herself. With one deep breath, she put his hard stick in her mouth while closing her eyes. His monster stretched her mouth widely, it was hard and she almost couldn't breathe taking it in. "Please it" he said calmly, his words falling on her ear like a gentle snowflake falling from the sky...Obediently, she started sucking on it gently and
Holmby Hill.... A car pulled up from the curb, it was a black Rolls Royce with Mr Robin seated in the driver seat with Jasmine on the passengers side, He pressed his car horn to signal to the security guards that they were at the gate... Jasmine peeked through the car window, the place looked so familiar, when Mr Robin called her on the phone, he had told her that he had a better and a safer environment for her to live but she did not ask him where, she instead told him to take her to the place so she could see for herself if it was truly a safe place. "Holmby Hill?" She mumbled when she finally recognized the place. "You brought me to Holmby Hill?" She said unpleasantly turning to Mr Robin, she wasn't expecting him to bring her here, she just needed a safe and not well known area to to live just like the street of her former apartment . It wasn't so popular and it was in one of the quieter places in the city, it was a great place especially because her father would not be able to
Her mind was frozen and her thoughts blank, Jasmine eyes looked worried as she recognized the voice she was listening to She couldn't believe that he had called her again, she should have changed her number, this man was getting closer to her and he was a threat, especially because of his boss Mr. A. Mr Robin who saw the girl was quiet all of a sudden, couldn't help it and asked " Miss Jasmine, who are you talking to?" Without explaining who it was she smiled and said, "just a friend, please can I use the restroom, where is it" looking at the maid in front of her " Let me lead you there, this way please" the maid said gesturing as she led her to the guest toilet. When they got to the door the maid bowed and left. It was a guest room but it looked like a master bedroom . Immediately the maid left, she locked the door. "What do you want!" She said trying to speak in a low tone so that she won't be overheard by the 2 people in the living room. "I just missed you, I called to check
(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
