Tangled by the Billionaire's Vow Chapter 145
Gwen's POVI slowly opened my eyes and groaned in pain. It was then that I realized I was not in the same room I woke up the previous time.I grabbed my head, experiencing an excruciating pain.This room was bigger and looked modernized. It has a king sized bed, a furniture set and a television which was on.“That's me” I murmured underneath my breathe when I saw a video of myself being played on the television.The video was an old one which I recorded when I was still in college. I was surprised to see it displaying on the television even when I personally did not have the video.“My beautiful Gwen. You have always been attractive, do you know that?” I heard Jake's voice. I turned and focused my gaze at the door where Jake was leaning.He had a sly smile plastered across his face and it creeped me.“You bastard, let go of me” I yelled, making an attempt to attack him but my body was very weak. I had no idea what Jake had done to me but I couldn't control my body.“Your fierce nature

Gwen's POVI tried every key, but the lock did not break. The only option I had was to use the small knife attached to the keys to break open the lock.“Please let this work, please let this work” I continued to chant.“Yes!” In a low tone, I shrieked with excitement. The effects of the drugs Jake had given me had not completely worn off, but I could now move my body more freely.I opened the door and rushed to the exit of the house. It was also locked but I managed to break it open with the knife.The house was surrounded with trees and from the looks of things, there wasn't another house in the area.I started running as fast as my leg could carry me. I arrived on an empty road just a few minutes away from the house. I was surprised to see the road there but more surprised that there were no moving vehicles.Suddenly, I heard a car approaching from the end. I instantly started jumping and waving my hand to attract the vehicle towards me.“Please help, help me” I screamed loudly, in

Andrew's POVI parked my car in front of Jane's apartment. I waited all night for Jake to come home but he didn't. Jane claimed that his house was under repairs that was why he was staying at her place for the meantime.Where could he have possibly spent the night? Just as I was about to drive away, I saw a black tinted Porsche pull over at the parking lot of Jane's apartment. It looked very much like the car in the FBI’s custody. Was this a mere coincidence?I called Agent Philip to confirm if the car was still in the headquarters and he confirmed it was. There was no way this was the same car, right?A knock at my window brought me back to reality. I rolled down my window glass and saw Jake smiling lightly.“What are you doing here this early Andrew?” He asked.“Uhm, well, I, uhm,...” I stuttered. I then took a deep breath and calmed myself down. I couldn't have him suspecting me, it would ruin everything.“I actually came here to ask Jane for a favor,” I said, regaining my compos

Gwen's POVAndrew ran furiously towards Jake and attacked him viciously. I grabbed the white bedsheet on the bed and covered my almost naked body.Who knows what would have happened if Andrew had not arrived at the right time. Jake would have gotten his way with me.Andrew and Jake began exchanging blows. Jake fought better than I expected he would. Jake pulled out a small knife from his pocket and aimed it towards Andrew's neck. Fortunately, Andrew managed to avoid the attack.I got frightened because Andrew was losing the fight. I was certain Jake would not spare Andrew if given the chance.“You son of a bitch!” Andrew yelled angrily, kicking the knife out of Jake's grasp. The knife landed some few steps away from the bed I was on.I quickly stood up and reached for the knife. If Jake doesn't have the knife with him, it would lessen the chances of him hurting Andrew.I felt a strong grip on my hair the moment I picked up the knife. Jake yanked my hair forcefully, and I screamed in

Gwen's POVThe voice sounded exactly like the one I heard while being held captive at Jake's. It was the same voice suggesting that Jake should have me dead.I had no doubts about it because I clearly knew what I heard and prior to that, I knew that I recognized the voice from somewhere, but who would believe me?I needed to remain vigilant and discuss the situation with Andrew as soon as possible. He had always suspected Rickard of having impure intentions towards him, so there was a good chance Andrew would believe me.“Gwen, are you here?” Rickard called out, startling me out of my reverie.“Uhm, yes,..yeah, I am fine” I said, forcing a smile across my face.“Good!” He replied sternly. “Excuse me” He added, walking out of the room.***********Andrew and I got discharged from the hospital the next day. Fortunately, the wound was not too deep and did not come into contact with any of his vital organs.Andrew was subjected to bed rest for a full week while I was completely fine. I di

Gwen's POVRickard lowered his hand and moved a few steps away from me. He was trying so hard to keep a smile on his face but it was to no avail.Attorney Frederick moved a few feets closer to Rickard and I with a confused expression over his face.“Rickard, Gwen, what is going on here?” He asked more firmly, raising a brow up.“Uhm, it's nothing Dad, Gwen and I were just talking” Rickard instantly began to stutter.“Gwen?” Attorney Frederick called, casting a suspicious look at me. It was obvious that he was buying Rickard's words.“Yes sir, it is nothing to worry about” I said, forcing a smile across my face.“Are you sure?”I smiled lightly and nodded.“Excuse me, I have to go now. Think about what I said Gwen” Rickard said, winking at me before making his way out of the kitchen.If Attorney Frederick hadn't been here, I would have pierce his eyes with a knife so that he wouldn't have the nerve to wink at someone else in future.“Your Dad has arrived. He is waiting for you in the l

Andrew's POVI awoke to an excruciating pain on my chest. I managed to get to the bathroom. I stood in front of the mirror staring at my reflection, dizzy and struggling to maintain my balance.My reflection was looking pale and dehydrated. I bent my head to rinse my face. After washing my face with cold water, I instantly began to feel nauseous.Using both hands, I clutched my head firmly. The room appeared to be spinning in a circle. In less than a second, I found myself on the cold floor throwing up.What amazed me most was that I was throwing up a substantial amount of blood. It was unusual for someone to vomit just blood and that much amount.“Gwen!” I called out in a low tone, coughing continuously . “Gwen!” I called, louder than the previous call.I couldn't think of a possible explanation for what I was experiencing. Was it possible that Jake poisoned the blade that he pierced through my chest?The door to the room suddenly opened and I heard footsteps racing towards my direc

Gwen's POVAs if she had just seen a ghost, Elena's face went pale.“I am here now, why don't you continue telling Andrew what I did to you” I remarked, sarcastically.I had no idea Andrew was rushed back to the hospital, not until Attorney Frederick called to inform me some minutes ago.I could not stop myself from rushing to the hospital to see how Andrew was doing for myself.To be honest, he did not look particularly good. He looked pale and extremely sick which scared the life out of me. A single stab could not have had this much of an impact in just a few hours.“You always have to show up and ruin things” Elena said underneath her breathe, clearly looking frustrated.“Have the guts to say it to my face at least. What ever happened to the bold Elena?” I said, mockingly.“You…” Elena yelled, lifting her hand to slap me.As expected, I anticipated that move and managed to seize her hand in midair. “I won't let you do that Elena. If you try to touch me again, I will make sure you

Gwen's POV“Rickard Gilbert. You have been found guilty of all of the charges against you. You are hereby sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labor” The judge gave his final verdict.I sighed with relief as I realized that all of my problems were gradually coming to an end.A month has passed since the incident. During the struggle between Andrew and Rickard at the warehouse, a trigger was pulled and a bullet went through Rickard's left leg.The case didn't hold immediately because Rickard needed to recover before he could face the court.Jake and Dr. James both testified against Rickard, and Fred presented the court with evidence indicating Rickard pulled the trigger on Brody.Elena's statement also helped with the case but unfortunately, she slipped into a coma.She was closely monitored by the police. As soon as she regains her consciousness, she will also pay for her crimes.Hopefully, she receives a lighter sentence because she was the only reason my sons were healthy and wi

Gwen's POVNanny Rose's memorial service was held in her hometown, and Granny and I attended to pay our final respects.We boarded the next flight to Oklahoma and returned home later that evening. The house felt incredibly empty without the children and Nanny Rose.It seemed like I was in a completely different place. I walked to the sofa and shut my eyes tightly.It has been quite an awful month for me and I don't think I will recover any time soon.As soon as I picked up my phone, I received a call from Andrew asking me to come to the hospital. My heart skipped a beat because I knew the hospital spelled bad news.Granny insisted on tagging along but I didn't let her. She has also been through a lot, which has had a negative impact on her health.I tried reaching Ricky to drive me there but he wasn't picking so I decided on taking a cab there.******“What's wrong Andrew?” I asked as soon as I saw him in the waiting room.There were numerous police officers patrolling around the area

Rickard's POVI stormed into the room where I had kept the children captive. Their instant sobs and screams became a nuisance to my ears.“Would you both shut up for fuck sake?” I yelled, throwing a wooden chair across the room, and the kids shook with fear.I made the room comfortable for them, I mean, I still remain their favorite uncle right?"I want to go to my mummy," Ethan stated, rubbing his cheeks with both hands.“Shut up you little brat, mummy is not coming” I yelled, slamming my hand against the wall vigorously.Elena rushed into the room as Ethan's sobbing became louder."Oh, poor child, do not cry," she said, stepping closer to Ethan. She sat on the room's bed and cradled Ethan in her arms.“You really don't have to scare them like this Rickard. They are our key to a good life” Elena said, staring at me intently.I scoffed audibly.“Since when did you start to care about the children and their well being?” I asked sarcastically."I am not a monster, Ricky, I have always h

Gwen's POV I watched how Andrew's face turned pale. I had no doubt that Rickard was on the other end of the phone. Andrew lowered the phone from his ear and stared at me without saying anything. “What happened?” “He threatened to harm the children, but I won't let him Gwen, I promise” Andrew said, taking my hands into his. "I know you won't," I replied, smiling lightly at him. He was the only person I fully trusted to bring my kids back. He was their father, he had the money and influence and I knew he was willing to give Rickard all his properties. He loved the boys that much. “Let me drive you home Gwen” Andrew offered. “I came with Ricky, it's only right I go back with him” I declined politely. “Alright Gwen, I will meet you at the house” Andrew said, softly planting a kiss on my cheeks. I got into the car with Ricky and he drove me home. On the way to the house, I could not stop thinking about how Rickard learned about our plan to ambush him. It only meant one thing, so

Andrew's POVI impatiently stared at the footage that captured how Rickard bulged into the house and came out with my children.“How could you be careless? You were assigned to look after my children," I yelled angrily, slamming my hands against the table.My phone began buzzing just as the chief of police was about to speak. It was an unknown number. I had an immediate suspicion that it was Rickard calling.I picked my phone and placed the call on loud speaker. The chief of police quickly asked his assistant to connect my mobile phone to the cellular location system in order to track down Rickard's exact location.“Hello big bro” Rickard said over the phone.“You scoundrel, where are you? Where are my children” I yelled vehemently over the phone.“Oh big bro, why are you being aggressive? The kids are having a little fun time with their favorite uncle” Rickard said sarcastically over the phone.My anger surged, and I could feel my blood crackling. If I ever get my hands on Rickard, I

Gwen's POV“No! No! No!” I continuously kept on saying. With every word I said, I took a step back.I almost lost my balance if not because of Ricky who supported me from behind.Nanny Rose lay on the floor in her own pool of blood, and the room's window was wide open.Ethan and Evan were not in their beds, and I could feel my heart breaking into little pieces. I released myself from Ricky's grip and ran towards the window.“Ethan! Evan!” I yelled at the top of my voice.Granny rushed into the room and was taken aback as soon as she saw the scene. She quickly took out her phone and dialed the ambulance.Ricky dashed out of the room to inform the cops about the kidnapping.I was left in shock and I kept on calling out to my boys, magically hoping that they would appear in front of me.I sat on the floor and burst into tears. My children were my weakness and if anything should happen to them, I don't think I would ever move on.I wished I had put them to bed myself, then maybe all this

Gwen's POVI sat beside Andrew staring at him quietly. His chelation therapy had been going on for more than four days, and he was already doing well.The pale color of his skin was gradually vanishing and he was regaining his actual skin complexion.The doctor said that if he continued to respond well to the treatment, he would be discharged in less than a week.I tucked his hands into mine and gently squeezed them.“They won't get away with what they did to you, I promise” I said softly.Suddenly, I heard the door to the room unlocked.“Fred, is that you?” I said, slightly turning my face in the direction of the door.“Attorney Frederick,” I exclaimed, getting up to my feet. “You are here?”“Well yes, I flew to Oklahoma as soon as I heard the news. How is Andrew doing?” Attorney Frederick asked, moving closer to Andrew's bed.“He is responding well to treatment sir. He will soon be back on his feet” I spoke calmly.“Did Rickard really do everything he was accused of?” Attorney Frede

Rickard's POVI continued to clench my teeth. If I had not followed Andrew out of the house, I would probably be in jail by now.“Damn it” I exclaimed furiously.I sat on the bed in the small room and dug my hands into my hair. How could I have been so dumb not to notice that i was being followed.“Fuck!” I yelled, smashing my phone across the wall.“There is no use smashing your phone across the wall Rickard. You sold us out” Elena glared furiously.“What the hell are you even saying? You should be glad I brought you along with me” I said angrily.I instantly regretted my decision. I should not have told Elena about Andrew's discovery. I should have gone into hiding and let her pay dearly for our crimes.Now I was stuck with her and her constant nagging. I was sure that going to jail wouldn't be as bad as being in the same space with Elena.Perhaps I should just turn myself in to the police.“God damnit” I murmured to myself.“We are fucking low on cash Rickard. How are we going to s

Gwen's POVI asked Fred to drive me home after leaving the hospital. On our way there, I paid for our flight tickets to New York.My plan was to subdue Dr. James. He will not go scot free for conniving with Rickard to lie about Andrew's health.I will ensure that he and Jake are transferred to Oklahoma prison so that when Rickard and Elena are apprehended, they can testify against them.My flight was scheduled for 9p.m that evening so I decided to go home first.When I arrived at the house, the scene reminded me of when Sophie escaped. There were officers patrolling around my house.I asked Fred to wait for me in the car while I went to get some of my stuff in the house.“Gwen, what is going on?” Granny said as soon as she saw me walking in. She carried that worried look across her face which made me wonder when all this will come to an end.“Remain in the house Granny and make sure you keep a close eyes on Ethan and Evan.” I said before dashing upstairs.Granny wouldn't just settle f
