The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement House Hunting
Chapter 128 Anna “Well what do you think?” Justin asked me. The realtor was looking at me expectantly. He had just finished given us a tour of the apartment. “The place isn’t bad,” I said. “ But the traffic noise coming in from the street is pretty loud.” “It isn’t really, it’s just normal traffic noise. You will get used to it.” The realtor said, trying to convince me. Justin shook his head. “I definitely don’t want to get used to that.” “Don’t you have anything else?” I asked. He shook his head sadly. “For now no, but I will let you know if something else turns up.” He promised. We thanked him and left. “The guy was really hoping we would take the place.” Justin said as we got into my car. “No way am I agreeing to rent such a noisy place. That traffic noise is dangerous to health.” “So where to” He asked. I shrugged. This was the second realtor, and the fourth place we’d looked at so far. And like the other three, there were okay at first glance, but look

Chapter 129 Janet We were all in the living room when Anna and Justin came home, looking very rattled. One look at their faces when they walked in, and I knew Lois had struck again. “What is it?” I asked anxiously. “Anna are you okay?” Dad asked. “Lois put a dead cat on the driver seat of Anna’s car.” Justin explained. “What?” Dad yelled jumping to his feet. “What?” Fran asked alarmed. “What kind of sicko kills a cat?” I asked. “Yeah while we were at the restaurant having dinner.” Justin explained. “The bitch also left a note, Next time it will be you.” “We need to call the police.” Dad said. “We have already done that. The cops didn’t do much though, not sure there is much they can do for now.” “We need to take this a lot more seriously.” Fran said. “Lois is more dangerous than we think.” “Agreed. She is a crazy bitch!” Anna said speaking for the first time. She looked a little pale. “ I don’t know why she hasn’t been caught yet.” “Because she is an experi

Chapter 130 Janet It was nearly 9am before Fran’s knock woke me up. “Still asleep?” She asked, coming into the room with a breakfast tray. I sat up yawning. “If I can’t go to work then I might as well sleep in. That way I will spend less time being bored.” I said. “At least you get to rest. If anyone deserves rest it is you.” She said, placing the tray on my lap. You work too hard.” “So do you.” I grinned mischievously. “ You and dad, are you two getting really serious?” “Mind your business.” She pouted. I laughed seeing her blush. “I an happy you guys are together. I really am.” “So am I.” She smiled. “ What are you doing today?” “Hanging out with Kevin.” “You will be home before dark right?” She asked anxiously. “You and Dad need to stop worrying Fran. Lois is too much of a coward to do anything more than theses annoying pranks. She doesn’t scare me.” “Well she scares me. And she is doing more than playing pranks. She almost got you killed.” “No she did

Chapter 131 Janet “Janet!” Kevin’s mom exclaimed, hugging me warmly. “How have you been? I heard about your accident! Thank heavens you are okay.” “I am fine thanks. I really appreciate your concern.” I said returning the hug. “ Oh my God your hand!” She gently held my bruised wrist. “It’s nothing really, just a bruise.” I said. She stepped back to let us in. “Come in. Lunch is almost ready.” She said leading us into the living room. “ I was hoping your Dad could join us Kevin, but he called to say he had a meeting, so I guess it will just be the three of us.” We sat down on the sofa, while she sat in an armchair. “I am so sorry about your dad’s heart attack Janet, I am happy he is better now.” “Thanks, he is a lot better. He is even back at work.” “And his fiancée,” she looked embarrassed. “ She is a wanted criminal?” “Yeah she is. Her real name is Claudia Rivers. She was planning to harm my dad too, but thanks to Kevin she was caught.” “Only for her to esca

Chapter 132 Janet A cellphone was ringing somewhere in the house. I felt Kevin stir. “Yours or mine?” He muttered. “Ignore it.” I said, not wanting his hot body to move away from me. I was lying besides him. My upper body on his strong, muscular chest. His hands on my back. We were both naked and has been fast asleep. We had only just fallen asleep a couple of hours ago, much of the night had been spent having wild sex. The phone kept ringing, after a while it stopped. We were drifting back to sleep when it started up again and refused to stop. “Sounds like mine.” Kevin groaned, he struggled to get up. “It may be important.” I grumbled as I was forced to get off him. He stood up and walked naked to the living room to get the phone. I rolled on my back, smiling as a warm breeze blew into the bedroom causing a pleasant sensation on my body, still pleasantly sore after our wild night. I heard him talking on the phone. From bits of the conversation, it seemed he was n

Chapter 133 Janet “Can I come in?” He asked. I hesitated. I knew if Kevin were here be would have called the cops, but I was curious to hear what he had to say and how he had gotten out. Had he escaped too? I thought. I decided he was harmless, and stood aside. He came in. “You have five minutes.” I said. He grinned. “ Still the same.” He sat on an armchair. “Can I get a drink? Lemonade maybe?” He asked. “No!” I sat across him on the arm of the sofa. “ Say what you came to say and go.” “You looking good Jan. Really good.” “Can’t say the same about you.” I said. Which was true. He had lost weight, and needed a haircut and a shave. He grinned. “ Don’t worry I will clean up in no time. But I need to talk to you first.” “How are you out of jail?” “I could answer faster if I had a glass of lemonade.” He said. I sighed in annoyance and marched to the kitchen. I brought back a tray, with a jug of lemonade and a glass. “Did you escape?” I asked putting the tra

Chapter 134 Janet “So she is dead?” Justin asked. “The cops don’t know for sure. Her body hasn’t been found.” Dad reminded him. “That’s what I said too.” I added. “But she must be, the police saw her drive off the bridge. No one can drive off that bridge and survive it.” Kevin added. We had left Gina and Brian in the restaurant and driven to my house. I was eager to tell my family the news. “Wish I could say I am sorry she is dead, but that will be a big fat lie.” Kevin said on the way. “We don’t know for certain she is dead.” I said. “Her body hasn’t been found.” “Trust me she is. I can feel it.” Kevin insisted. It turns out they had already seen it on TV, and were about to call to tell me. We all sat in the living room trying to decide whether or not Lois was really gone for good. “Kevin is right.” Anna nodded. “No one, unless they have super powers, can drive off that bridge and survive it. And I know the bitch doesn’t have super powers so she didn’t survive

Chapter 135 Janet On Monday morning the sun and I rose together. I had spent the night at home so I could get enough sleep, something I couldn’t get if I was with Kevin. Every night I was with him was hotter than the last one. I jumped out of bed, excited about going back to work, and quickly got ready, then went down for breakfast. My family was already having breakfast. I greeted them and was greeted by them. “Just on time.” Fran said, serving my breakfast. “Anything in the news?” She asked Dad, who was concentrating on his phone. He shook his head and put his phone away. “Still no sign of her body.” He said. It had been days since the news of Lois’s accident and her body still hadn’t been found. The others hadn’t been bothered, but Dad had read the news every morning, hoping to read it had been discovered. “Relax Dad. I have told you there is nothing to worry about.” Anna said. “Agreed.” Justin put in. “ The witch is dead. Nothing to worry about.” “I agree she

The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement This Is For Real
Chapter 155JanetIt was nearly 4pm when I finally closed my laptop and leaned back in my chair. I massaged my neck gently to ease the tension.It had been a very busy day. I had spent it running from one meeting to another and answering phone call after phone call.Everything had fallen on me as the only Benson in the company right now. The newly wedded couples were away on their honeymoon and weren’t expected back till the end of next week. Which meant I had a lot more stressful days ahead. But I didn’t mind. The thought of Dad enjoying his honeymoon because he knew I was here to handle any problem was all the motivation I needed.I yawned and stretched, then decided to call them and see how they were doing. I called Anna first but she didn’t pick up. But from the pictures she had posted on social media this afternoon I knew she and Justin were having a great time in Florida. I called my Dad."Hey Dad!"“Hey honey, how are you doing over there?” Dad asked."Great and yo
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Busy Bee
Chapter 154 Janet The room was filled with people. My family, friends, coworkers, and company staff were all there. A banner with, Welcome Home Janet, was hanging on the wall. “Welcome home sweetheart.” Fran, who was standing besides me, said hugging me. “You knew about this?” I asked Kevin who stood behind her. He smiled mischievously and shrugged. I was really surprised and pleased. The last thing I had expected was a welcome home party with so many people turning up. I walked towards the crowd of people and received a lot of hugs and kisses. “We were so worried about you Miss Benson. I am happy you are alright.” My secretary Dani said. “Thanks Dani. I am happy to be back.” Someone handed me a glass of champagne and I sat on the couch with Kevin, watching the people who had come to celebrate my homecoming. “Okay Jan,” Gina said sitting on the arm on my chair. “ I want the whole story. Everything. How did you fall into the hands of those psycho?” “

Chapter 153 Janet I was brushing my hair when Kevin walked in. “Hey beautiful! Wow you are ready so soon?” He asked. “Yeah. I can’t wait to get out of here.” He laughed. “ Why the rush?” “Are you even asking? I have been here for a week. It is a miracle I am still sane. You know I hate hospitals.” I said. “Sorry but the doctor wants to keep you here a week more.” He said. The look on my face made him explode with laughter. “Joking babe, I am here to take you home.” He walked over to me and kissed me. “I still can’t believe that nightmare was just a week ago.” He said gently. I couldn’t believe it, but it was. A week ago I had escaped from Lois and had been airlifted to a hospital in Dallas. I had awaken from hours of unconsciousness, to find Dad, Fran, Anna and Justin around me. “She is awake!” “Honey are you okay?” “Jan thank God.” “We were so worried-“ Their had all been talking at once and struggling to hug me. I watched then tongue tied, not sure
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Escape Plan
Chapter 152 Janet “Hungry?” Lois asked me, waving a chicken wing in my face. I glared at her. There were hundreds of choice names I would have liked to call her but the gag in my mouth stopped me. We were in a motel, even more dirty and rundown than the previous one. I was sitting on the bed tied up and gagged. Lois sat on the only chair eating chicken and drinking soda. The greedy bitch hadn’t given me any food or water since we had arrived the evening before, and it was now well past midday. After she had knocked Jason out, she had dragged me from the bed and put a jacket around my shoulders. “Make any wrong move,” she said pointing the gun at me. “ And you are history.” We walked out of the room side by side, the gun sticking on my ribs. The motel was almost deserted. She unlocked the car and pushed me into the back seat then got behind the wheel. She made a call to the cops telling them to hurry to the motel because, Janet Benson and her kidnappers were in room 1
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement To Pay Or Not To Pay
Chapter 151 Kevin I was awaken from a restless sleep by my ringing phone. It was a week since Jan had gone missing and it had been a week of hell for her loved ones. Her kidnappers hadn’t called again and we weren’t sure why. It would have been easier if they just made a ransom demand. We would have happily paid it. As usual I had been with the Benson’s all afternoon hoping for news, but there was non, not even from Breed. I had stayed up till after midnight thinking what to do, before falling asleep on my couch. I groaned and fumbled for my phone on the coffee table. “Hello?” I mumbled. “Kev? It’s me. I have got news. They’ve found Jason.” I jumped up immediately. “Where?” “The cops got an anonymous tip that led them to a motel outside of town. They found him unconscious in a room. Someone had knocked him out.” “And Jan?” “No sign of her or Lois. The desk clerk said a woman paid for the room a couple of days ago, which was the same day the cops raided the house w
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Double Cross
Chapter 150 Janet “Couldn’t you just make the ransom demand already” Jason asked. “ What are we waiting for anyway?” Lois, who sat by the small desk eating a hamburger, glared at him. “The longer we wait, the riskier it becomes. Make the demand, get the money and let us fly to Canada like agreed.” He continued. “Will you shut the fuck up!” She said angrily. “ I don’t need your advice! You have done enough, so shut the fuck up!” “It’s not my fault everything isn’t going according to plan.” He said. “Really?” Lois said controlling her anger. “ So whose fault is it?” Jason looked uncomfortable. “Tell me Jason, whose fault is it? Who stupidly used their phone to make a call that was traced and nearly led to our capture, hmm? Whose idiocy caused our plans to be derailed? You! You had three jobs, shut up, listen, and obey my instructions. But no, you had to be a dumbass and now look.” “All I did was call Watson to annoy him a little. You called Benson didn’t you?” Jason
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Just Missed Them
Chapter 149 Kevin Day four, and still no sign of Jan. To be fair the cops were doing all they could. The day after Jan went missing her car had been found abandoned in a supermarket parking lot. The cops had combed the area but no sign of her. We had given them the footage from Gabhill’s carpark and they had gotten to work. Pictures of Lois and Jason were all over the media and Gabriel was offering a reward for information on the kidnapping. Yet nothing, no sign of her. I had called Breed almost non stop, nearly driving the poor guy crazy and pressuring him to find something, anything that could lead us to Janet. I hadn’t eaten or slept since it happened and I couldn’t concentrate on work. All I could think of was getting her back. I spent most of my day at the Benson’s house, with Jan’s family. We all sat waiting anxiously for Lois or Jason to make contact. I was at home now, my dad had insisted I take time off till we found Jan, pacing about my apartment, half out of my min
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement I Have Plans For You
Chapter 148 Janet “Hey Lois.” I said casually and bit a slice on pizza. I couldn’t see much of her face,but I knew she was wearing a short dark wig and I guessed contact lenses. Another one of her disguises. She seemed a little disappointed by my casually behavior, as if she had expected me to faint from shock. “You are not surprised?” She asked. “ Or perhaps Jason has told you already?” “I didn’t.” Jason said “No he didn’t. But still I am not surprised.” And I wasn’t. “ I knew you weren’t dead. Everyone, even the cops, thought you were but I knew you weren’t.” “You always were a smart ass. Unlike some people.” She turned to Jason. “ You have been made!” “What? How? Nobody saw-“ “The carpark has cameras dumbass. Your picture is all over the media.” “But you never mentioned cameras.” “I never mentioned traffic may be on the road, but I am sure you looked both ways before crossing. Didn’t you?” She snapped. Jason paled. “What do I do? How do I go out if they ar
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Captive
Chapter 147 Janet “Hello! Can I get some water! Hello!” It was day two of my imprisonment. I had come to and found myself alone in a basement, lying on a small torn mattress. My right wrist was chained to the wall. It was cold and dark, except for a stream of light coming in through a crack in the single, boarded up window. The place was dirty and untidy, but there were no rats. I hated rats. Aside the humiliation of being chained up, and a slight heaviness in my head, I wasn’t hurt in any way. But I hadn’t had any food or water since I had been in here, and I still had no idea who my captor was or were. At first I had tried screaming but I found out I was wasting my energy. The sound only echoed back, so I gave up. I tried to remember what had happened. I had been on the phone, then sat in my car. I remembered hearing a noise in the back seat..then..…..I had smelt a chemical! Even now the smell was still on my nose. I must have been drugged! The person was hiding in the b
