Lavender and Ian returned to the room hand in hand.
After meeting Emma and knowing the fact that she might be pregnant, Lavender's mood was complicated.
She has also just discovered that Emma had been bullying her children. Looking at Robert, she felt like he was not as responsible as he seemed.
He let his own blood and flesh be bullied right under his nose, on top of that another woman was now pregnant with his child. He will be engaged in a few days time and he is still telling her not to worry!
Who the hell does he think he is? And who the hell does that kind of shit?
Did he want to make her his mistress as he enjoyed life with his wife?
Lavender was infuriated as she thought about how well this man was good at playing.
His mind was so well planned out. It seemed like he liked playing with people in the palm of his hands.
She had chosen to trust him about the engagement ceremony but after suspecting that Emma was pre
At the hotel parking lot.Lavender entered the back seat of the car with her three children.Robert was left standing outside like an idiot.He had drove his car over but he did not want to leave alone. Thus using the advantage of his thick skin, he opened the front door and sat himself in the passenger seat making himself as comfortable as he could be.Lavender had come with her driver so she did not have to drive on her own.She had wanted to tell the driver to start the car as soon as possible but she did not expect Robert to immediately jump in the passenger's seat.How thick was this man's skin. Couldn't he tell that she was mad at him and did not want to see him?In the back seat, Lavender was busy conversing with her children.She stole a few glances at Robert but she noticed that the man was busy on the phone. He did not even spare her a glance.Lavender was frustrated at how this man was affecting her mood
"What did that woman talk to mummy about?" Whitney asked after seeing that her brother had remained silent for a long time."Mummy told me that she saw her vomiting and went over to help her. At first she didn't know that it was the she devil and only helped her out of the goodness of her heart like she could help a stranger." Ian said."I don't know what happened after that because I wasn't there but when I finished relieving myself I didn't see mummy and assumed that she might be at the washing area thus I went over to find her. But arrived at the washing area, I saw that woman raising her hand and ready to slap mummy." Ian explained."I was so shocked that I immediately rushed over to stop her." He said."How dare she raise her filthy hands on my mother. I'm going to kill her right now! Immediately! This instant!" Reagan said angrily."I also heard mummy tell her to go and see a doctor and that she might be pregnant. Maybe that is what mad
Who else? Or do you have another fiancée that I don't know of?" Lavender asked coldly."Did she tell you on her own accord that she is pregnant with my child?" Robert asked with his perfect eyebrows raised a little."No. When I went to the washroom I happened to see someone vomiting so I went over to offer my help. It Turned out that it was your lovely fiancée vomiting her gusts out." Lavender said."Then how did you know that she was pregnant?" Robert asked."I'm a doctor so I was able to tell whether she was pregnant or not." Lavender said."Then how did you come to conclusions that the child in her stomach was mine?" Robert asked as he looked at her."Logical inference. She is your fiancée and now she is pregnant what else did you want me to think? Isn't that common sense." Lavender sneered."But don't you know that she can't fall pregnant?" Robert asked as he looked at Lavender with a half smile ha
Although it was already late at night Robert drove his car to the Houston family home.It had been a long time since he last went to his family home but because the matter was agent, he had to see his grandfather as soon as possible.When old Houston heard that his grandson was back he immediately woke up despite the fact that he was already asleep."What made you come home today?" Robert's grandfather asked the moment Robert entered his bedroom."I have come to take a look at my grandfather, am I not welcomed even in my own home?" Robert asked with smile. He was still displaying the polite and friendly aura he always has infront of his grandfather."What are you talking about. This is your home and you are welcomed anytime.""Okay grandfather I see that you you doing well. I don't have to worry about you." Robert said."How are my grandchildren?""They are fine. It was late so I couldn't bring them home. I will bri
After a whole night of thinking, Emma came to a decision.Now that she was pregnant she knew for sure that the doctor who had done a diagnosis report on her in the past had either deliberately lied to her or it was just a mistake.It was also a sensitive time for her and she could not abort the child even if she wanted to.Everyone in the Houston family knew that Robert and her had never consummated their relationship and if word got out that she was pregnant she won't be able to explain herself.And she also had to look for the doctor who had diagnosed her and ask him why he could make such an obvious mistake despite being a professional.She didn't want anything to go wrong on her engagement ceremony because her life depended on that day.Whether she could stay in that family or not depended on that day. Now that she knew that Lavender was back and even she and Robert were seeing each other, she felt a sense of agency that she
As Robert was still rubbing his eyes brows his phone rang. Looking at the caller a subtle smile appeared on his lips.His face lit up and the gloomy feeling in his heart dissipated in a flash.The tiredness that he had been feeling since morning also disappeared without a trace."What! You can't wait to take away our kids from me any more? Even the court isn't opened at this hour." Robert teased person who was on the other end of the line. His voice was mellow and rich making Lavender blush immediate.Lavender felt embarrassed at the teasing man but there was nothing she could do. She was worried that Robert might change his mind so she wanted to remind him not to be fickle.But of course she would never admit that she was worried that he might have changed him mind overnight."That is not it. Can't I just check up on you?" Lavender asked although her voice sounded as if she will never check up on him."Ooh you missed me during the wh
The engagement ceremony was to start at two o'clock in the afternoon. All the media personnel have been invited and everyone was excited about it.It was by no means going to be a grand event. Everyone was especially curious about the the two little children of the Houston family.They were sure that they will be introduced to the public today. Although they were already seven, Robert had kept them hidden and no one had ever laid eyes on them.Even their teachers in the school didn't know that they were the young master and little princess of the Houston family because their father had told them to keep a low profile.Although the media came in the name of attending the engagement ceremony, what they wanted to do was to take a look at Robert's children..The rumors had it that the little young master had a very high IQ while the little mistress was especially adorable. They wanted to see for themselves how Robert's children were.It was alre
"A surprise? What kind of surpride could Mr Houston prepare for us?" The guests were shocked.Even Emma was perplexed. Could Robert have recorded an apology and wanted to play it in front of the guests?Thinking about it Emma felt that it must be right. Even the embarrassment that she had felt when Liam ignored her vanished..She resumed her elegant pose and even her smile became more bright.Liam went over to the temporary prepared podium. From his bag he removed a projector and a laptop. Seeing what Liam was doing Emma was more certain that Robert had recorded an apology for her."What is that? Does Mr Houston want to hold the engagement ceremony thought a video call?" Someone asked."Since he is sick and he couldn't make it maybe he is preparing to really do it online!""But what about the ring? Isn't he supposed to put the engagement ring on his fiancée finger?" Someone asked."That is not important. It c

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
