Robert rushed to his office as his assistant had told him that they had a candidate for surrogacy.
He had actually wanted to bring up the topic when he was with Lavender but he had resisted the urge. He knew that Lavender was not that kind of girl and he didn't want her to lose her respect and dignity in such a humiliating way.
They had only dated for less than three hours, he did not want to scare her.
He didn't want her to think of him badly and even detest him because of that. She might think that he got together with her just to use her.
He rushed to his office at lighting speed. He also wanted to be done with the situation as soon as possible.
"Who did you find?"
"Jeffrey Smith, fifty years old has a daughter Rael Smith, twenty five years old. He contacted us and said that he happened to overhear some people talking about it thus he discussed with her da
Rael smiled mysteriously hiding the vicious light in her eyes."I don't have to go and sleep with that disabled man." She stated."What do you mean? The doctor said that, that was the only way." Jeffrey said."Yeah, it's the only way but it doesn't mean that I have to personally go. We can send someone else over.""Who?""Lavender."Both Janet and her husband were startled."Rael, are you kidding? You are the one who underwent the check up. What if we send Lavender and something happens?" Jeffrey asked. He felt that it was too risky to send Lavender."And how are we even going to convince her? Do you think she will believe us after all that we have done to her?""Dad, relax. Nothing is gonna go wrong. There is no way I'm going to waste my life carrying a baby for someone. Nine months is a lot of time
"Lavender are you free? I have something important to tell you." Came Jeffrey's voice. "What's so important that it can't be said over the phone?" Asked Lavender. The last people she wanted to see were the Smiths. She loothed them to the bone and marrow. "It's very important. I have just received news that your dad had an oversee company. Although it was not doing great, some great person has taken interest in it and want to buy it. As the only next of kin, they need your consent." Jeffrey explained. "Why haven't I ever heard of such company from my parents?" Lavender questioned with doubt. "You were young so maybe your dad saw no need of telling you. Actually, the company is even registered under your name." "So if you have time, I was given some papers, you can go through them then we will see what follows." "Why should I listen to yo
Lavender was baffled as she had no idea what was going on.Or maybe they have come to beg her to give them some money."Lavender, you are early! Have you waited for too long?" Jeffrey asked as he took his seat."No, I just arrived." Lavender said."Hi Mr Nelson." Lavender greeted.Nelson did not say anything and just looked on with an expressionless face."Mr Jeffrey, I don't have time. I hope that miss Rael is ready. We should get going." He said in a cold voice.Lavender, who had been ignored, grumbled."He really has an attitude.""Mr Nelson, there has been some changes and Rael is not the one going anymore.""Mr Jeffrey, what is the meaning of that? You have already signed the contract and now you want to breach it?""No, no. That's not what I meant. Lavender here is
It's been three days since Lavender was brought to this private villa.They forbid her from contacting the outside world and only told her to concentrate on taking care of her body. She begged to even speak to Robert but Nelson only sneered at her with contempt."Wasn't it you who wanted to climb in a rich man's bed, why are you behaving all pure and innocent? Who's sympathy are you trying to gain? You think I will fall for your little tricks? Just concentrate on eating well and taking care of your body." We that, he turned around and left.It has only been three days but Lavender had already lost a lot of weight. Her face was haggard and she looked like a thirty years old lady who lived in the village. She could not even recognise herself anymore.Her eyes were swollen and hair was unkempt. When she looked at herself in the mirror, Lavender was so shocked and scared of herself that she immediat
Lavender was concentrating on eating her rice when the familiar minty smell wafted in her nose. She thought that she might be hallucinating again because she missed the man too much.She thus did not look up and continued to eat her rice.Robert looked at her coldly.'Now she is even pretending that she had not noticed my presence. How had I been stupid in the first place to even like someone like her?'"Enjoying your dinner?" A cold voice came beside Lavander.Lavender, who was in her world, thought that her mind was going insane.Not only did she feel his unique scent, she was also hearing his voice."It must be an illusion again." She mumbled as she stuffed her mouth with more rice.Robert felt anger burn in his heart for being ignored. He should have known that all women are heartless creatures and what they are after is
Lavender slept until daybreak. It was a miracle that she didn't have any nightmares throughout the night. She had never slept this good since she was brought to this villa. She woke up feeling refreshed and even the dark circles around her eyes were gone. She seemed to have accepted her fate and all she had to do was embrace it. Lavender went to clean up. After thirty minutes, she exited the bathroom looking spic and span. Even Anna who had brought her breakfast was astonished at the sudden transformation. "You are looking good girl." She commented. Her young face was glistening with life and it was full of energy. "Thanks auntie. And thanks for yesterday. It really helped a lot." Lavender said, smiling genuinely at the gentle auntie. "Ooh, it was nothing." Anna said. She thought that Lavender was only putting on a strong f
Three days went by in flash and without Lavender knowing it, it was time to face the reality.Although she had already done it with Robert, the last time it was full of love, but this time, she wasn't sure how it was going to be.During the past three days, she has been convincing herself that all was well. That she was conceiving with the man she loved. That one day he will have a change of heart and realise that he misunderstood her. But let's leave that for the future.Nelson had taken her to the hospital for a check up. They even checked if she had any sexually transmitted infections. Lavender was humiliated but there was nothing she could do. She was under someone's mercy so she just had to bear with it.During the day, someone came to pay her a visit.Emma entered the house with arrogance. She did not give a damn about anyone and immediately started ordering everyone around like they were her slaves.She matched directly to the master
The room was in total darkness by the time Robert entered. He had already showered and the only thing on his body was the white towel around his slim and narrow waist.He searched for the socket and turned on the lights. Lavender who was already blind folded and lying on the King sized bed felt her back tighten when she heard some movements in the room.It was finally here. The long awaited day is finally here.She clutched the bed sheet tightly, trying to stay as calm as possible. She had no idea that lights were turned on because in her eyes was total darkness.Robert who was drying his hair, looked at the woman who was lying on the bed and sneered.She schemed all that time, why was she pretending to be nervous at this time? Was she taking him as a fool? He had already lost all the good feelings he had for this girl. And if not for the fact that his grandfather was urging him, he would already have tossed her to the sea to be eaten by the

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
