"No brother Robert I......" Cindy was tongue tied.
"I.... I was just doing it for your own good."
"For my own good? Are you kidding me or do you think that I am stupid?"
"No brother Robert."
"And stop calling me that already. It is disgusting." Robert said.
"I..... I..... I just wanted to confirm if Lavender really loved you or if she was just after your money and playing with your feelings."
"Ooh so you wanted to play the game of a good cop right? I have never thought that you will actually try to sabotage my relationship." Robert said.
"If I had not been at home and my wife got mad at me after hearing your lies, would you also have said that you were doing it for my own good? If she decides to leave me, would you have persuaded her to stay and tell her that you were only trying to see if she truly loved me and you meant no harm?" Robert asked.
Cindy remained quite as she had nothing to say in her defence. She did
After Cindy left, Robert and Lavender cuddled a little more on the sofa before the two left to go to the study room. Lavender was writing her medical reports while Robert was looking through the company's important documents and signing them. Although they had given themselves a day off they were still busy people and they did not like to sit idle. Robert had initially planned to take Lavender out after their lunch but Cindy foiled his plans. He could only sit and look at his wife as she worked hard. Her head was slightly lowered making her slender neck visible. Her face was smooth and clean. She held her hair in a messy bun making her look young and enticing. The more Robert looked at her the more he felt his throat dry up. He had no choice but to avert his gaze. After thinking about something Robert left to make a phone call. Although he did not manage to take her out to enjoy some breeze the surprise that he had prepared for her will not be postpon
Whitney rushed to the boys room and called them. "Ian, Reagan daddy needs us to go to their bedroom right now." "What for?" Ian asked. He had already changed from his school uniform and he was looking for his homework. "He said he has a mission for us and we should hurry." Whitney said. "What kind of a mission?" Reagan asked. He was sitting on the bed sucking on the lollipop while still wearing his school uniform. "Lil' bro you have not even changed?" Whitney asked when she saw her brother still in the school uniform while sitting lazily on the bed. "Yeah I'm tired." Reagan said. "Can you stop being lazy and change into something else. Daddy is waiting for us." Whitney persuaded. She once heard her mother say that Reagan was the most behaved child she has ever seen. She had said that Reagan will always take his shower on time and change his uniform the moment he reached home. He will always do his homework on time without
After Robert and his kids finished picking the clothes for Lavender, Robert gave a call to his company and the stylist rushed over to Lavender's villa.Lavender had just finished writing her report and was going to find her kids when she saw so many unfamiliar faces moving up and down in her house.She wondered what was going on as she made her way downstairs. There she found Robert and the kids watching TV."What is going on? Why are there suddenly so many people in the house?" Lavender asked."Mummy you are done with your work?" Whitney asked with shining eyes. She almost blurted out what was happening but meeting Ian and Reagan stern gazes she swallowed the words she wanted to say down to her throat.Before anyone could say anything a lady who was almost in her thirties came over to Lavender with a respectful expression."Ma'am we were just waiting for you. This way please." The lady said to Lavender.Lavender looked at
"Good." Ian nodded. He then turned to Linda."Linda right?" He asked.Linda did not answer him and looked on with mockery."I guess you are the sales executive?"Linda did not say anything. She thought that she would not stoop to their level and disgrace herself. She in fact did not know nor did she care why the little bastard was asking for her name or her position."Is she the sales executive?" Ian turned to look at Melissa and asked."Yes. She has just been promoted.""From today onwards you are the sales executive." Ian said to Mellisa which left the latter feeling shocked."As for you…. miss arrogant, you are fired! From tomorrow you don't have to work here anymore." Ian said. His voice was cold and carried absolute power. Everyone who was listening was shocked."You don't have to wait until the day ends. You can pack your things and leave because honestly looking at your face makes me sick and I d
Robert rushed to his family villa to see how the preparation were going. He had initially wanted to host it at his private villa but thinking about how he had not formally introduced Lavender to his family and friends he thought it would only be right if he did the engagement party at his ancestral home. Lavender was the future matron of the Houston family and it was only perfect if she got the best.By the time Lavender finished her makeup, Ian, Reagan and Whitney had also finished preparing themselves. The three kids were wearing matching tuxedos and it was hard to differentiate who was who from the three of them. Whitney had found a wig from who knows where and now it made her look like she had cut her hair short.Robert had wanted Whitney to wear a princess dress but she had refused and said that she wants to look like her brothers thus he had no choice but to buy her a suit just like her brothers.The three kids went to find their mother and
The kids took Lavender’s hands and led her into the house. The entrance was covered with the red carpet and there were roses on either side of the entrance all the way to the huge living room. Everything looked glamorous and not a single flaw could be seen.Lavender was again marveled at how fast this man was at planning things. Not even a day had passed since he proposed but he already prepared so much. It seemed like he had been preparing this for months.If anyone was to be told that these was all prepared in just half a day they will not believe it no matter what.Lavender had spent the whole day with him but she did not know anything. She was really ashamed of herself. The man had done everything from beginning to and but there she was, doing nothing in return. She should really not take anything for granted.The room was filled with people. Everyone was amazed at how efficient Robert was at mobilizing people. A few phone calls from
Robert and Lavender hugged intimately as if no one was around. They loved each other so much that they could not wait to show it to the whole world."Let us go and greet our guests." Robert said. If they continued to hug like this, he was afraid that he might end up carrying Lavender to the bedroom and ditching the guests, after all his wife really looked tempting tonight."Okay." Robert led Lavender to the elders first. Old Houston was sitting together with old Stone and the two were chatting and laughing happily. They were busy competing in a game of chess and they did not pay much attention to what was going around.The kids were sitting together with the elders and Whitney was sucking up to the two elders so that she could get more presents. She was cheering on the both of them so that whoever won would give her gifts. Her brothers tried to stop her but it was to no avail. "Grandfather, Grandpa." Robert called out to the two elde
The servant distributed the glasses of wine among the four people with trembling hands. She did not dare play any tricks in front of her boss. Robert behaved as if nothing was amiss as he took the wine glass happily.“To the new couple in town!” Cindy raised her glass to Robert and Lavender.“To the new couple in town.” Derrick followed suit.Lavender who was obvious to the schemes that Cindy had planned raised the glass to her lips. Robert also drunk his wine in one gulp. He did not stop Lavender from drinking because he wanted to give Cindy the impression that she had succeeded in her schemes.Cindy was so excited when she saw Lavender drink the wine that she almost screamed out loud. Everything was going on as planned. She looked at her brother and saw that he had also downed the wine and felt even more pleased.Because she was feeling happy about her plans being successful, she did not suspect anything as she also drunk

At the abandoned house, Emma was pacing back and forth as she looked at her watch."Is this man trying to test my patience?" Emma asked her father."Relax. He won't let his daughter die no matter what. Remember we gave him the coordinates for the longest route. Maybe he is still stuck on the heavy terrain of road leading here.""I haven't heard from Cindy. Why don't you call her and ask her whether she had already dealt with Lavender?”“I will call her right away." Emma said and dialed Cindy's number. The phone did not go through. She even dialed her dad's men that were protecting Cindy but it did not go through too."Dad something is wrong." Emma said. "None of the phones are going through." She added.Although Lion also felt that something was wrong, he did not think too much about it. The only thing that he cared about was her daughter to get her revenge."Call the other people and tell them to bring that little bastard over." "Their phones are not going through too."Just as Lion
"Just tell me where my brother and sister are and whether they are fine.""I will go make a call." The one who seemed as the little leader immediately left to make the call.He had been confused by the little boy's speech that his mind was blank.Were they really messing with the wrong guy? They were not from the city so they had not heard much about the Houston family and the ruthless heir.They were just a small gang that lived on the street. They depended on small jobs and theft for survival. Lion had found them and seeing how skilled he was they had decided to follow him. They actually believed in bullying the weak and fearing the strong notion.So, when he told them that he had a mission for them and that they will earn big, they readily agreed. The man stopped thinking about it and dialed his boss number. He can't let that little boy scare him.……In the car….Robert heard his phone beep and looked at it. After he saw the content of the of the text, he could not help but smile.
"You make it sound so simple." "Don't worry darling I won't let anything happen to our kids." "I trust you.""Why don't you do me a favor, leave this to me and let me take care of it. I promise that nothing will happen." "No that won't do. Even if we are going to ambush them, we can't give them a chance to retaliate. Since Emma and Cindy managed to pull off something like that, it can only mean one thing….""They have someone powerful helping them from the sidelines." Robert finished the statement for her."Yes. Since we don't know how powerful the enemy is, we can only play along with them." Lavender said. She would never take the life of her children and her friend lightly."So darling just let me go with you. Me staying at home while knowing that my kids are in danger is a real torture. I promise that I will look after myself." Lavender said."Okay. Grab some thick coats for you and the kids. They might be a cold by now."…..In the abandoned house….Lion was looking at Whitney
The car the Cindy was in was moving at a very high speed. Although the roads were bumpy and they almost rolled over a few times, Stella and the kids were still unconscious.Seems like that drug was really strong."Miss, why did you kidnap the woman too? You know that boss doesn't like it when someone goes against his orders." The man who was driving asked."That is none of your business. You should concentrate on driving. I will take care of the rest." Cindy said. As long she got what she wanted, she did not give a hoot about anyone.The driver shut up and the two other guys did not say anything as they watched the kids carefully.….Back at Lavender's place, the police had already arrived at the place and after checking everyone they realized that the suspect must have gone with children.And there was only one suspicious person missing among the guest and that was the kids’ Arts teacher."Why would miss Yolanda want to kidnap her own students?" Lavender asked with obvious doubt.It
The party began at five thirty o'clock in the evening. Since it was just for kids there were not a lot of formal talking. People were just socializing and making connections. Cindy who had already blended in as the kids’ Arts teacher looked on as people enjoyed themselves with disdain.Everyone here only cared about their benefits and whether they will leave an impression on the Houston family. After all the entire power of the Houston family lied in the hands of Robert and Lavender was also an internationally renowned doctor who had won major awards because of her medical papers.People just wanted to suck up to them so that they could have it easy in both the medical and business field."I think I now understand why you insisted of planning everything on your own." Stella said. She was hugging a man's hand and Lavender was happy to see them together. "You two look good together." She said with a smile."If you had not insisted on pairing us together, we would have missed out on ea
The long-awaited birthday party soon arrived. Although their exact born date was on a weekday, the party was held over the weekend since the kids had to go to school and their parents had to go to work during the week.Lavender had bought a much bigger villa and it was just right for the party since it was being held in the big yard of the private villa.She had refused to move to Robert's villa, although it held a lot of memories for the both of them, she did not want to remember her pitiful, painful past."Hurray it is finally the weekend and I am super excited." Whitney said to the boys."Yeah me too. I never thought that this day will ever come." Reagan said."How did you celebrate your birthdays with mummy?" Whitney asked curiously. Since they were just the two of them, did her mother also throw such a huge birthday party for her brother just like their father did every other year?"Mum will always buy three cakes. Every time I asked her why she would buy three cakes she always s
Three months passed by in flash since the engagement party and since Cindy’s disappearance.Robert had not wanted to involve himself at the start but seeing how battered Derrick looked, he decided to give a helping hand.But even with his resources, they did not manage to find her. The young spoilt mistress seemed to have vanished into thin air.There were no records of her leaving the country nor was there a corpse to prove that she had died. They had even contacted the police but they had not received any news of suicide or murder. Robert could only give up at this moment."You should stop stressing over her. She is all grown up and I am sure that whenever she is, she is safe." Robert said to Derrick. "I can't help but blame myself. All of these is my fault. If I had not spoilt her rotten, she wouldn't have turned out like that." "All of us loved her and spoilt her so we have to share the responsibility. But that does not mean that we should live in guilty for the rest of our live
Chapter 136 "What is wrong with her?" Derrick asked feeling uncomfortable from all the touching. He was shocked that he was actually having a reaction and hastily pushed Cindy away. Cindy moaned and was on the verge of undoing the zip on her dress.The smell of the male hormone was too much for her that she just wanted to grab whoever it was and eat him up."She is drugged so she needs a man to find relief." Robert said with less concern.Derrick and Lavender were shocked. Lavender was a doctor so she immediately knew what kind of drug Cindy had taken."How did she get drugged? Uncle…… you? Derrick looked at Robert in disbelief. "I am not the one who added the aphrodisiac in her wine glass, she did that to herself. I am just giving her a taste of her own medicine." Robert said."What has my sister done?" Derrick asked. He was in so much shock that he did not even know what to think."She wanted to drug my wife and you and lock you in one room so that she can embarrass my wife in fro
