Loraine's PovI glanced at Klein who was holding a wine glass, twirling it in his hands and, from time to time, he would sip on it while watching the events with amusement. However, I know that it was just a disguise.Upon sensing me looking at him, his gaze landed on me and he wiggled his brows.I smiled at him, and then swiftly excused myself from the ball. They didn't notice that I had left either, and besides, when I went there to see, all I could see was their contempt for them, some of them just looked at me nonchalantly, some minded their own business, and the others were clearly looking at me like I was a clown.But it didn't matter much anyway. It is a good thing too, since the more they wanted to leave me out of the event, the more that they wouldn't notice that I had just left.After I left the event along with Klein, who drank the wine in a big gulp, then threw the glass right after, he lowered his necktie and started walking along with me.“The child?” I asked.Klein smil
Loraine's PovI walked towards Shun and bent my knees. I raised my head and patted his head.“You don't have to beg, we will do everything to save your brother, to save all of you.” I calmly said despite the tremors in my voice.I glanced at Klein and nodded my head at him.I looked at the children who were looking at us with innocence and their eyes were filled with confusion despite the doubts earlier.So innocent. Too naive.What if we were just pretending to save them? Would they easily believe it too?I couldn't help but feel pain upon seeing them look at us with innocence, with hope, despite that they have suffered enough to leave a trauma on every part of their bodies.I bit my lower lip and suppressed my anger. I tried my best to soften my voice because I didn't want to frighten them.I gave them a warm smile as I softly said to them. “Can you follow this big brother?” I asked while pointing to Klein who was standing and added, “heWill take you out.”They looked at me with in
Loraine's Pov“What a foolish woman. Protecting those kids won't bring you good.” Belinda's father, Benedict, had said while sneering at me.I glared at him. “What a foolish official. Harming these kids won't bring you good. If this act spreads outside, who knows what would happen to you?”Benedict let out a ‘pfft’ laugh. “That is, if I let you get out of here alive after knowing too much.”I looked at Shun who was trembling while hugging his brother and when he saw me looking at him, he looked at me with reddened eyes.“I... I don't want to die..."“You won't.”“I don't want my brother to die...”“I won't let it happen.”“B... But I don't want you to get hurt.” He softly said, making my expression soften.I couldn't help but smile at his words. I raised my hand and patted his head. “Be a good boy and close your eyes. No matter what you feel and what would happen, don't open your eyes unless I say so okay? Do you trust me?”Shun pursed himself and nodded his head. “Just don't get hurt
Loraine's PovI left the place along with the kids and went back to Klein's house where he temporarily left the other kids too.After we arrived, I gently laid Adrian, Shun's brother, onto the couch and made sure that he was comfortable.“Can I open my eyes now? I felt safe in this place. I don't think there's a fight going on,” Shun had said, with a soft, childish voice.Ah right, I remembered that I told him to close his eyes.I let out a soft chuckle and patted his head. “Okay, okay, you can open your eyes now. We're back.”Soon after, the other five kids swarmed towards my direction and their eyes were curiously looking at Adrian, then they looked at me with a hint of confusion.“Is Adrian okay now? His complexion is good.” One of them asked while pointing at Adrian's face.I smiled and nodded my head. “Yes, he's okay now. How about all of you? Is your wound still hurting?”I glanced at those who were well-dressed, and it seemed that the reason why Klein got late was because he dr
Loraine's PovI looked at the person behind me who was possessively declaring his sovereignty over me with a helpless look and lightly pushing away his face that was on my neck.“Are you done dealing with it?” I calmly asked, changing the topic before he could taint the minds of those children who were innocently looking at us.Aaron hugged me again from behind and buried his face on my neck. “Yeah, I've dealt with it, and they are already sent to prison to pay for the crimes they have committed. I didn't kill them.”I nodded my head in understanding. It seemed that Klein had told Aaron about my wishes regarding that I don't want them to be executed instead because it was too easy for them.What I want is for them to suffer for what they have done to these innocent children. They don't deserve to be treated like that. They are still young, and they are supposed to have fun, enjoy their life without minding about the future.However, I didn't ask too much about what Aaron had done to t
Third Person's Pov“Damn, that woman is really getting on my nerves. Who does she think she is?!” Penelope angrily said, slamming her hands on the table while looking at her incompetent subordinate.“Do what you need to do and free Pauline from the prison and kill the person who tortured her! That damned Aaron! He went too far!” Penelope angrily commanded his subordinate who was kneeling on the shards.Despite that their knees were bleeding, they didn't show any emotions and calmly answered their master's order.“Yes, Madam.”After that, three of her subordinates had left to deal with the matter of freeing Pauline from the prison and killing the person who tortured him.The remaining three had kneeledfor a long time, waiting for their master's order, until they had heard her speak with a cold voice after she calmed down her emotions, since, although she doesn't want to admit it, she's getting older, and she needs to take good care of her body to live a long, long life.She doesn't wan
Loraine's PovBefore I could realize it, he had already carried me to the bed and laid me down as he went on top of me, kissing me aggressively as if he couldn't get enough of me while his fingers were slowly massaging my clit, making me circular motion from it and from time to time, he would increase the strength on his finger, pressing it heavily that made me moan in between our kisses.“Hmm... stop...” I tried to push him away before he could do it all the way, but my hands were too weak to completely push him.Now it made it seem like I was just acting coquettishly.I could hear the vibration of his chest as he chuckled. He bit my lower lip and proceeded on teasing my labia.“Are you really sure you want me to stop, hm?” He hoarsely whispered in my ears and his other hand was playfully pinching my nipples.Damn it. I shouldn't have gone out of the bathroom naked.My cheeks felt hot, and I averted his gaze, which seemed to be filled with such intense emotions that even I couldn't b
Loraine's PovI couldn't help but groan when I scented such a heavy scent mixed with medicine and alcohol that it made me frown as my head throbbed.“She's waking up. Did you make sure that you tied her tightly, Ace?” The man asked the man named Ace.My brows furrowed, and I was about to open my eyes, but only to find out that my eyes were blindfolded, and I felt my whole body was being tied with a chain, preventing me from moving or escaping.I was lying on a metallic table and my whole body was bound to a chain.“What are you going to do with me?” I calmly asked while I tried to move my arms, but to my disappointment, I couldn't move them because of the chain.It seemed that this man named Ace had tightly bound me to the chain, preventing me from moving.“It's futile. You cannot escape right now. Not under our watch.” Ace coldly said as I felt a sharp knife pointed at my stomach, making me tense all over.The other man laughed. “I don't know why you got the Madam's bad side, but you
