Laura's POV“What do you mean he looks like a real baboon?” I asked, utterly surprised at Agatha who stopped walking before turning to look at me.“He lacks manner. He couldn't even get up and help me get a sit. Instead, he sat still and kept smiling like a fool at me. I was pissed off. That's why I hate fake dating, Laura! They are a bunch of morons!” She snapped at me.Aft first, I couldn't control my laughter, and then I gave a serious look, trying to act concerned despite I felt an urge to laugh again. Agatha was really something else.“Now I see why you can't get a man. You shouldn't have left him that way, Agatha. It's just a simple thing. Maybe he thought you'd get a sit yourself. That isn't a big deal,” I argued, splaying my hands, and she scoffed, rubbing her eyes.“Let's just go home. I'm not going back to that baboon,” She hissed loudly and I snorted. “Is he really a baboon or handsome?” I insisted on knowing, my lips curling in a silly smirk. I was enjoying this game we we
Laura's POV“Bella?” I called, utterly shocked as it came like a blow to my face. What was Bella doing with Eric?I knew of their past so well, and I knew how he would never want to cross path with her so why now of all time? I glanced at Eric to see him lying on the car trunk drunkenly. God, he was wasted. I'm sure he wouldn't realize what he had just done till next morning. My eyes met hers again. “What do you mean by my husband is nice?” I retorted, raising my voice a bit higher. Bella smiled knowingly, showing off her freckles as she bit her lips hard.Was this woman trying to act seductive to me right now? For Christ’s sake, wasn't she pregnant? Or was the child for Eric?Gosh, difference thoughts kept reeling through my mind as I tried hard not to believe what I was thinking. No, it couldn't be. Eric loathed her after she cheated on him, but the question was, was he the father of her baby or Aaron?‘Don't think too much, Laura.’ I thought, still waiting for Bella's response as
Eric's POVGod, I got wasted last night, all thanks to that fucker, Tyler. The next time me and him meet, I'm going to devour him for leaving me late at night at the bar.I had seen Bella come into the same bar we were last night, but neither did I give her any attention nor speak to her. Not until Tyler stood up saying he had an emergency to fix and left me stuck, then Bella made advances towards my side when I fell drunk. I became too wasted that I hadn't even realized she'd brought me home, and I could hear the dispute between her and Laura. I felt guilty but at the same time, I was too lazy to even justify myself, and now I was being punished early in the morning.“Fuck you, Eric Sloan,” I heard Laura say, and I could see the hurt that layered in his eyes. Again, I felt guilty.“Fine, fuck me, but please hear me out. Nothing happened between Bella and I last night. Anything you're thinking right now is just a misunderstanding. I...” “, I said, don't freaking lie to me!” Laura sh
Aaron's POV“You're free to leave,” Those four words made my ears perked up in excitement as I stood up upon hearing the corp that was opening the cell.I was prepared to leave today with the help of James after he had gotten a good lawyer to help me with the process.Finally, I would be out in the world again. “You'll be leaving us here,” That came from one of the cellmates and I scoffed, rolling my eyes.“Do I have to stay here with you guys? I'm Aaron Walker, of course I'm not supposed to be seen in a hole like this,” I replied to them, feeling proud at least.They snorted at my words. “You're such a proud peacock,” One of them said.“Mr Aaron Walker, you're delaying my time!” Came the Corp's voice again. I flashed a smile at my cellmates, who urged me to leave before the Corp started to lose it.That's one thing I'd never admit. They were friends while in here. At least it was never boring with them in here.“This way, Mr Aaron Walker,” The Corp directed me outside the station to
Laura's POVThe ringing of my phone made me finish my bath quickly. It was the anonymous caller ID. Instantly, I felt the rise and fall in my chest, my heart palpitations increasing as I felt like I'd explode anytime soon.Why was he calling now?I picked up my phone with shaky hands, my lips quivering as I patted my lips and said. “H-Hello?”A laughter came from the background. A kind of laughter my ears perked up to recognize. It sounded familiar, but I wouldn't predict just yet.“It's so nice to have this conversation with you again, Laura Karma,” Came my anonymous caller's voice which only made me to tremble more.No matter how hard I tried to hold back the tears that threatened to obstruct my vision, I couldn't bring myself to bear it anymore. “W-Where's my Mum? Bring her back to me!” I screamed, mustering the courage to speak up and he laughed again.“You know, it's so funny how you never learn from your mistakes, Laura. A simple instruction, you wouldn't follow. You keep going
Aaron's POV“You need to come alone,” I said in a husk voice, grinning widely at the woman who was before me, tears leaking out of her eyes.It gave me joy seeing her teary. I loved it whenever she cries and screams for help that she can never get.Laura's mother.Laura has been so stupid to never recognize this voice. For months, she still hasn't found out who was the owner of this voice. Despite how I spoke effortlessly, she never ceased to amaze me with her stupidity.So sluggish in learning.Yuck, that sucks.I heard her sniff. I knew she must be in tears, and it made me more ecstatic.“Why do I need to come alone?” She asked after so much deafening silence of no chats between us, and I groaned in return.“Will you stop asking me questions and listen to my instructions? You're such a lousy mouse, and if you keep tasting my patience this way, I might end up killing your damn mother!” I texted, already burning with anger.“No... Don't touch her. Please don't touch my Mum. I will do
Sasha's POV“Is it done?” I asked Aaron as he strode in, all sweaty.“She wasn't so easy to get, such a hard time,” He blew it off, going to sit on an armless chair.“Was this your plan all along?” I asked, unable to stop myself from asking.“What's your problem, Sasha? Are you backing out of this now?” He yelled at me.“I'm not backing out of anything, Aaron! I was simply asking if this was your plan all along? To kidnap her?” I retorted.“Yes, it was part of my plan to track her down. And now that I have her, I'm never letting her go until Eric succumbs to me. He will surely go crazy when he finds out his darling wife is nowhere to be found,” He replied and stood up again as he walked over to the cellar, bringing out a pomegranate martini.“Cheers to a new level,” “Cheers,” I smiled slowly. This wasn't the time for celebration. Aaron had just created chaos. This wasn't part of our plan to kidnap her. Though, I never liked Laura, but we hadn't planned it this way. I knew what fate
Eric's POVI stared at the corps, unable to move from my spot. “What do you mean by Laura has gone missing?” I inquired, quirking my brows at them. My eyes slide to Agatha and Sasha then back to them.“That was the same information we got, and that's why we request you to come with us, Mr Eric,” One of them said firmly.I scoffed, rubbing my fingers on my chin. “Which information? Who told you that!” I snapped at them.What bullshit were they talking about?I left Laura home with Sasha so why the heck were they saying she has gone missing? Who took her?“Sasha, where is Laura? Take me to her now! These corps are insane!” I glared at Sasha. “Sir...”What?“Sasha!”“The corps are right, Eric. I think she's missing,” Agatha interjected sardonically. “You are just ridiculous. She might be in her room,” I shook my head, finding it difficult to believe she had gone missing.Again, who took her?Obviously, no one would get past those amount of securities into the house and take her! Someo
