Third POV *** The next day. Henry came out of his car, he had seen a little girl crying earlier on the roadside and he couldn't bear to see her that way so he hurried his driver to stop. He carefully approached the girl and lowered himself, his body bending at the knees until he was at eye level with the girl. The little girl's round cheeks were streaked with tears, her tiny frame shaking with the force of her sobs. As Henry bent down, she looked up at him with wide, fearful eyes. Henry's eyes met the girl's, her big, brown eyes swimming with tears. He didn't have much experience when it came to kids so he chose his words carefully. "Why are you crying little cutie pie?" His voice sounded awkward but he knew he did a great job of getting the girl's attention. She wiped her face with her little hands and turned to look at the handsome stranger who was squatting close to her. He looked just like the oppa in movies but that was less of her concern. "It's...it's...my mummy, she do
Abigail's POV *** "Snow!" I called out again, my voice hoarse as I struggled to catch my breath. My fluffy little cutie was really trying hard to make me go after him, yes he was a male. Snow came to an abrupt stop, he turned to look at me and I saw him lying quietly on the floor. "Are you ready to stop running?" I said, grinning as I approached him. I gently stroked the soft fur of his back, my fingers sinking into the plush white coat. He was very warm and fluffy also. I smiled down at Snow, my heart melting as I gazed at his fuzzy little face. "You're such a good boy," I murmured, my voice thick with emotion. I held him close as I walked into the kitchen, feeling a sense of relief that he was safe in my arms and partly because I didn't have the strength to run after him again. As I walked towards the main kitchen, I heard sobs from the room, the sobs grew louder and I stopped to listen. It was safe to call it eavesdropping. I stood beside the door and placed my head near it
Abigail's POV***"He is really cute, Miss Abigail." I heard her say and I nodded my head with my gaze still fixed on the paper.Slowly, I bent my knees and reached down to grasp the crumpled sheet of paper with my outstretched hand. Straightening up, I unfolded the paper and smoothed out the wrinkles with my other hand. The letters on the paper were a bit easy to understand, and I took a moment to read the words."Get ready to pay with your life and Abigail's."My forehead creased as I struggled to understand the words that sounded more like a threat.With my eyes still fixed on the page, I took a step towards Aria, my shoes thudding softly against the polished floor. I barely registered the sharp intake of breath from a maid standing nearby."What's the meaning of this?" I growled through clenched teeth, throwing the paper in her direction. Aria looked like she had just seen a ghost, her face turning as white as her shirt.Her eyes darted back and forth and I scoffed as I saw her
Abigail's POV***"You both did what?" I questioned angrily, my body vibrating from the shock.They bowed their heads down in shame and even though I felt the anger seeping through my veins, I decided not to say anything further.Instead, I turned and stormed out of the kitchen."Miss Abigail, we are really sorry. Please pardon us"Aria and the other woman whom I didn't know her name, ran to meet me and they were now standing in my presence, stopping me from moving further.I stopped in my tracks and stared daggers at them, giving them no room for explanation."Leave Aria, you have done some unforgivable things. Don't expect me to let you off the hook easily." I said with gritted teeth, controlling myself from losing my temper."Please just give us a chance to speak, we will explain everything to you. Please, Miss Abigail, forgive us."They both kneeled before me and I stared back at her with no expression on my face.It was hard to tell what I was thinking as I did not give room for
Third POV***Aria and Hazel exchanged nervous glances, they didn't know if telling her the truth would be the best solution.As far as they were concerned, they could lose their job and in return beg on the streets for food.That would make it easy for the loan sharks to get to them and their lives would be in danger.Aria felt her breath seize and even Hazel's face went ghostly pale. They both stared at Abigail, who was now holding a long whip in her hands.Ready to unleash it on them at any minute. She had a devilish smirk on her lips as she admired the long whip.Though she didn't know what it was doing in the room but she decided that she would ask Henry about it later. For now, she would use it on Aria and Hazel if they refused to cooperate with her."Are you ready to speak or are you not?" Abigail walked towards them, placing one of her legs on the bed and standing with the other. She leaned closer while resting her hands on her leg, making her exude a bossy Aura.This was a di
Third POV***Oh no, the young master was in the room, Aria and Hazel wished for the ground to swallow them.Their heart raced fast and they stood up from the bed in swift motion.Henry's lips pursed into a thin line as he stirred at them and then back at Abigail.He later figured out that Abigail must have been the one who invited them in.Even though he felt disgusted to see them in the room that belonged to him and Abigail, he kept his cool.If it wasn't for Abigail, he would have fired them on the spot but his beloved girlfriend was the one who let them into the room."Welcome...young master" they both greeted in unison, their palms sweaty as they dared not look at the young master in the eye.Meanwhile, Abigail didn't know the gravity of what she had just done, she was just excited to see Henry and couldn't wait to get into his arms.But with the maid around, she couldn't do that, so she said, "You can both leave"They both walked towards the door, bowing as they passed the young
Third POV***Henry was already on his way to the Rakoonas bar, it was as weird as its name itself.He had a facemask on, probably because he didn't want to get recognized especially in a bar filled with people.After getting the text from Tarvan, he didn't even wait for a minute before heading straight to the bar.Henry parked his car in a far distance and decided to walk towards the bar like a random person.The Rakoonas bar had got to be the worst he had ever seen, lacking quality and taste.There was a VVIP area in the bar, he paid the required money and they let him into the area.Henry sat down gently, his eyes scanning the shelves of liquor. He caught the bartender's attention, gesturing for a glass of wine. “A glass of Cabernet Sauvignon”As the bartender poured the crimson liquid, he studied the room around him. The soft murmur of conversation and R and-B music filled the air.He had chosen the least expensive wine he could find because he didn't want to attract too much att
Third POV***"Ten thousand dollars for the winner" Henry repeated again, watching the bewildered expression on their face.The white mask he wore was expressionless, but beneath it, his lips were stretched into a wide grin. Henry strode towards the empty chair and sank down into it, before leaning back and letting his body relax.The man who had just lost a bet against them shook his head in pity as he stared at the new man.He wanted to warm Henry but he decided not to.After losing a thousand dollars to them, he had already decided to never play against the loan sharks again.What was he even thinking? The loan sharks were known for their consistent success.But after seeing five thousand dollars as the price that would be given to the winner, he had decided to try his luck and he failed woefully.Meanwhile, Henry pushed the thick wad of cash across the center of the table.The gasp erupted from the crowd with their eyes fixed on the money."We have gotten a big fish, Asher”One o
