LYRA POV.It's the day we return back home. Three days here were the best days. Lorenzo feels like a family to me and I have discussed this with no one so far.It's just my feelings. I think it was the best decision to give him a chance. His anger is not in control fully but I know he will never take such measures on anyone."It's time to go, Sweetheart." Lorenzo calls me. I smile at him and walk to him."Can I kiss you?" He asks and that's the best thing about him. He never does something without my consent. "Hmm." I say. "I'll take that as yes." He says and kisses my lips. I don't think I have ever received so much love on a kiss.He never once made me feel like he was taking advantage of me but always showed me love and nothing else."Are you Miss Walton?" A sudden knock on my door makes my heart Jump out my chest."Jess, Yes I am in." I shout at the door. "Miss Walton is safe. I repeat, Miss Walton is safe. Secure the area." I panic when I hear his tone."Stay here." Loren says
LORENZO POV. Mr. Walton called me this morning when I was inside the warehouse doing my morning exercise. We tried everything on them but none of them gave us the name of the mastermind behind all this.The only thing they ever say is that he is someone closer than we think. Mr. Walton wanted me to get to his house as soon as possible. I know it was because of Lydia. After turning the whole world around we found her.She still hasn't explained to us why she was staying in such a place when she had everything. This made me doubt at her but Mr. Walton didn't look like he was leaving her there.I only help back because of Lyra. She has been dying to see her and after she went through I can't let her suffer more.If she wants something then she will get it. I reached the mansion. Nothing really changed except the security.Mr. Walton updated the security and I don't think anybody will ever try to sneak in. "Good morning Mr. Walton." I greet him. I see Lydia descending the stairs. I don
LORENZO POV.How dare he enter my territory without any fear and think I would leave him just like that.Here I am in Romania waiting inside the private jet to get the signal so I can enter the country without notice. "I don't think we will get more time." Beck says and he is right."I'm sure we will have enough time to finish him." I say and they all nod in response."I still can't believe you guys pulled out of the saloon. I have been maintaining my image and you guys trashed it today." Oreal said annoyed at us. Well she can't be blamed.The only girl who doesn't care about what people think is Lyra. I don't think anything is affecting her now. She is very busy now with the new project and lots of things.I really admire how she is giving her best in everything. I have seen her design and it's just amazing. Her design stands apart from everyone. "Great, 2 hours." Paul announces and I smile. "Get going boys." Stepheno calls out in sleep and we enter the Romania border. We have alr
LYRA POV. I was getting ready in my room and my mind wouldn't allow me to think about anything else. I trust whatever Dad told me but I still want to know the truth. I talked to Dad about Andrew and I am happy he helped me clear things about everything. I decided to call Andrew by his name because he didn't really deserve to be called father. Mom was on her way here that's what Dad told me so I didn't call her.I know what this meeting was about but there was this feeling inside me which was making me nervous for some reason. Lorenzo was going to be with me and I have to say. That movie night showed me a gentler side of him. He is an angry man but the way he is learning to control himself makes me happy.It's his progress and he is successfully completing it. I wonder if I will ever overcome my fears. I know my strength but I am also afraid of my weakness."Little Bud, are you done?" Dad asked from the door."Argh…Dad not again." I say looking at myself for the last time in the mi
RONALD WALTON POV. I have been thinking how to keep Lyra away from everything going on. I don't want her involvement in anything. So I have decided that it will be today.Today is the day I will announce it to the world. That's final I have decided."Good morning Mr. Walton." My P.A greets me through the call. "Good morning. I would like you to arrange an urgent meeting with the BOD and then I want the legal department and Planning department to be present in the meeting." I told him.Generally, I allow room for mistakes but today I don't think I will be able to tolerate anybody causing any mistakes."When are we planning to have this meeting? Sir?" He asked. I thought about it and calculated it roughly."3pm. Conference hall." I said and cut the call. If Stepheno is tapping my call I will kill that child this time."Send Stepheno in." I say and the phone starts ringing."Hello Mr. Walton" He greets."I will be visiting Lyra today." I say and he replies quickly."Dew will be accompan
STEPHENO POV. He was still on the cloth he wore last. He didn't look like the age he should look and that surprised the rest of the room."It's an honour to meet you Mr. Walton." Oreal spoke for everyone in the room because the boys went all mute for some reason.The one who looked lost was Paul. His presence affected him the lot. Oreal took a step towards Mr. Walton and greeted him and then the rest followed except Paul. The hatred was what was blocking him. "I think I remember you…." Mr. Walton said when Paul wasn't moving from his place."Paul Klein." He addressed himself."Yah right, I didn't think you would be related to Rothschild." He said and his words did shock me. I wonder if that is a diss or compliment. "It's nice meeting you in person." Paul said coming out from his place. He then extended his hand and Mr. Walton took it gently and shook his hands like he was his close associate.I wanted to introduce everyone personally but he was in a rush for some reason. I cut the
STEPHENO POV. We have been trying to track Mr. Walton's location for hours and it's a very difficult task as his location keeps fluctuating with every passing minute.It's sure that he had some kind of protection installed in his device that is helping him to cover his tracks. I wonder what Mr. Walton is upto that he needed this type of security. Kia and Pual are working hard too but the results are not something we are proud of. We tried finding Lydia Walton and were quite successful until the signal failed.It looked like someone was trying their best to cover them both and that man was faster than us. In all the mess I texted Lorenzo and updated him about the issue here. He too was frustrated after hearing the result. "Hey! How about we take a break?" Kia asked me, I nodded my head and he walked out of the room with his cell phone.Among all, Kia was really giving up his precious time because his wife was pregnant and no woman would want her husband away in his time.I should t
LYRA POV. I walked towards my bed for support when my entire body collapsed on the floor and I hit my head on the concrete. The pain I felt made me scream out that I heard footsteps approaching my room. I held my head so tightly thinking it would reduce my pain even though I knew nothing was going to happen. "Are you okay?" I heard their questions. My full focus was on my head so I didn't reply to them but I did nod my head. " Please don't cry." He coaxed me and it was not something people have done for me. We both were sitting on the floor, him being in front of me. "It hurts." I tell them and cry in front of them like a kid. "I will get some ice for her." Matt says and he walks out of the room leaving me and Lorenzo. "Show me where you are hurt?" Lorenzo asks softly and I look at him with tears filled in them. I remember what he warned about crying earlier. "Everywhere" I tell him and tears roll down my cheeks like rain."What did I say about crying the last time?" He asks
"I am sorry" I pleaded with my eyes closed. I could feel him breath near my neck. He started choking my neck, making me gasp for air due to lack of air. My eyes turned bright red. I always prayed someone could save me. I wanted this everyday pain to go away but all my prayers were vain. "Please.. I beg you" I begged again and in front of someone who loved seeing me in this pathetic situation. For once I wanted to be stronger in front of him, for once I wanted to be brave. "Tell me who you are?" He spoke, mocking me. Why? Because he liked my answer. "Speak. You disaster" He barked in front of my face. He never once called me with my real name instead gave me dirty names. "I..am.." I sobbed tears Fallin down my cheeks. This whole time I kept my eyes closed. "Open your eyes" He commanded, pulling my hair back. Because of his everyday pulling of hair my scalp gets swollen. I tried opening my eyes but it was difficult. My eyes felt heavy due to lack of sleep and crying. When I was no
