Chapter 101 - The Witch Behind The Mask

Claude’s POV I got back from the bathroom and headed back with the grab man that had accompanied me in the first place. I had hidden the watch carefully in a place one would least expect. “ So? How's he feeling?” Steven asked the man who accompanied me the moment we came into his view. “ I think he's doing a lot better. You should ask him if you wanna confirm,” he shrugged. “ Next time, if you're allergic to something tell us right away. I can't afford being yelled out by my employer,” Steven complained as I went back to my chair. “ It's not an allergy, genius. It's called I-N-T-O-L-E-R-A-N-C-E,” I snapped, making emphasis on the difference. “ Intolerance, allergies, they're all the same,” he shrugged. Was he intentionally being dumb or was he just dumb? “ If it was an allergy it might not just have ended with me using the bathroom. Intolerance affects the digestive system and the effects aren't deadly whereas an allergy affects the immune system so with that

Chapter 102 - A Step Closer

Kasper's POV “ Is there any news on the van that took my children, Inspector?” I questioned as Butler Luke served tea. “ These are what we've found out so far,” he dropped a brown envelope on the glass table. “ You're yet to identify the vehicle?” I asked rhetorically as I opened the envelope and read it's contents. “ That's not exactly right, putting it like that would make us seem incapable. The van isn't a registered vehicle so we can't track it,” he sipped from his tea cup. “ How about Claude’s wrist watch that you found on the scene? Can't you match the DNA and find out who took him? ” I was beginning to show just how tensed I was. “ We tried that but unfortunately, your son's watch didn't come off with another person's effort. How do I put it?” He sighed. “ Inspector, please explain better,” Anastasia who sat by my side gulped. I could see the fear and guilt all over her. “ We got our best crime scene technician and others to look into this case a

Chapter 103 - We Can Survive

Claude’s POV The smoke kept on rising and it was getting harder to breathe by the second. This Cora lady was really crazy, I didn't really think she'd go through with the plan of burning us. Where in the world did dad meet a crazy hag like her? “ Ough, Ough, Claude?” Chloe coughed. “ Yes, I'm right besides you, Chloe,” I asserted. “ Are we... Are we going to die here?” Chloe was in dismay. “ That's the last thing I'd allow to happen to you,” I grit my teeth. “ So how are we going to get out of here? Or rather hold out till Dad comes without dying?” Chloe thought of all the possible things that could happen to us but I tried my best not to let it get to my head. I needed to keep my fear in check and find a way to escape with Chloe. “ Well, one thing's for sure, we're getting out of here,” I held on to a pen knife. “ Where did you get that from?” She probed. “ Let's just say Steven got a little bit fond of us and didn't want us to die. He slipped it

Chapter 104 - Hope

Kasper's POV The quiet and peaceful atmosphere was interrupted by the wailing sounds of the sirens that pierced the air. With I and Anna joining the police cars that ravaged the road, the cars sped like our lives depended on it - well, in a way it did. Anna, Claude and Chloe meant everything to me and I couldn't afford to lose them. Heaven knows what would happen to me if something bad were to ever happen to any of them. “ I don't see the fire truck and ambulance yet,” I passed my observation on to Inspector Jin. “ We decided that they should not follow us immediately just in case of an emergency. For now we are blaring our sirens and flashing our lights to clear out the road but once we're close enough to the hideout, we'd turn everything off. The last thing we want is for the criminals to get away,” he explained. He was right, if we got everyone on deck right now, it would cause too much attention and could force the kidnappers to flee with Claude and Chloe. We could

Chapter 105 - Giving Mom The Cold Shoulder

Claude’s POV I sat down in the main living room with the TV on, the best thing about being sick or injured was the undiluted care and privileges that came with it. You could say I was living my best life right now. “ Master Claude, would you like anything else?” Butler Luke asked. Of course the workers in the house were always available for my needs but there was a slight difference now, I didn't get reprimanded contrary to before where they could reprimand and even give me light punishment which I knew was for my own good of course. “ No, I'm good but I'd happy to have a yogurt refill,” I gave him innocent eyes. “ Alright, sir. I'll get that done,” he bowed. “ Claude! Claude!” Chloe called from the other end of the stairs as she ran into the living room and towards me. “ Why are you shouting my name, Chloe?” I groaned. She could have saved both of us the strength by just walking up to me instead of yelling. “ Oh, sorry,” she whispered. “ I'm not angr

Chapter 106 - Weaving A Web Around Cora

Claude's POVJust as I and Chloe were in our own worlds, dad walked in with Inspector Jin and some others. “ Looks like you're doing a lot better, Claude,” Inspector Jin smiled as he walked into the living room with dad. “ Yes, I am. Thanks for your concern,” this was awkward. “ Claude, Inspector Jin and his men are here to ask you a few questions so they can find the culprits,” dad ruffled my hair as he explained. “ Alright, that's fine by me,” I shrugged. “ Mhm... So Claude, do you remember the face of any of the kidnappers? The leader if possible,” Inspector Jin sat down and brought out a note and pen. “ First thing everyone needs to know is, the leader of the gang that kidnapped us is far from the actual master mind. He and his men were hired to kidnap us,” I started explaining. “ What do you mean by that? And how can you be so sure?” Inspector Jin questioned. “ I first realized it when I found out through reverse psychology and intentional provocati

Chapter 107 - Leave The Dirty Job To Me

Two days laterCora's POV"Thud!" I shut the door as I walked in. I could barely walk straight. I think I had too much to drink. Walking into the living room, I was surprised to see my dad sitting on his chair and staring at me. He looked a bit angry, which was weird. He rarely ever gets mad at me. "Geez, you almost gave me a heart attack" I said as I placed my hand on my chest."Where are you coming from?" He asked. That was weird. I'm an adult for Pete's sake. What did he mean 'where was I coming from'?"Went out with my friends" I said, "Any problem?" I asked, feeling skeptical about his odd behavior today. "Come with me" he said as he stood up and walked off. Urrghh! I was hella tired. Why couldn't it wait? Angrily, I followed him. We arrived at his study where he took a seat on his swivel chair behind the desk. "What's the matter dad?" I asked impatiently, "I'm really tired" I complained. "Why wouldn't you be?" He asked angrily as he took of his glasses. What did he mean by t

Chapter 108 - Rekindle The Spark 1

A week laterAnastasia’s POV I packed my things up and prepared to head out. My glass house felt empty without Claude and Chloe in it - I missed them. “ Stop acting like they're gone for good or something. What's with the melodramatic gazing back when they're just in Kasper's house?” Stella interrupted my thoughts as she walked into the living room where I was. “ You really can't read the room, can you?” I clenched my fist as I tried my best to not to cuss at her. “ Well, maybe... maybe not but the point is, it's better to know that they're safe and it's not like Kasper would disappear with them,” she sighed, patting my back softly. “ Yes, I know but they hate me don't they?” I sighed, sadness evident in my voice. “ Who knows?” Stella shrugged. “ Not helping,” “ But honestly, I don't think they hate you or Claude hates you. Maybe they want you to realize something,” Stella looked at me as if waiting for my response. “ Something like?” I tilted my

Chapter 109 - Rekindle The Spark 2

Anastasia's POVKasper lay over me, his strong arms propping his body. My hands wrapped securely around his neck as we kissed.My body lay still on the bed as Kasper looked over me, his massive presence casting a shadow over the room's bright lights.He suddenly pulled away, his gaze meeting mine as we took in deep breaths. I saw the look of longing in his eyes, one that I always yearned for day and night."Are you sure about this?" He suddenly asked, his index finger tracing my jawline.Now I think of it, was i ready for this?I mean he wanted me and I wanted him, there should be no harm in doing this, right?"Yes," I blurted out before coming to a conclusion and Kasper smiled thinly."You won't regret this?" He asked again, making sure I was approving of this willingly.I nodded again, suddenly unable to find my voice as his hand went under my dress.I closed my eyes, letting the familiar feeling I had craved each time take over once more.I opened my eyes when I felt Kasper pause,

Chapter 110 - Love At First Fright

Sebastian’s POV “ Where are you headed?” Dad questioned as I walked into the living room. “ A stroll,” I shrugged as I took my jacket. “ At night?” Dad twisted his brows as he sceptically looked at me. “ Evening breeze,” I countered. “ You've been acting pretty off lately. Are you alright?” Liam who kept stuffing himself with noodles asked. “ First of, what are you doing here? Secondly, why are you even eating by this time??” I stopped to properly interrogate him. “ Chill out. Besides, that's no way to treat your best friend. You're so heartless and cruel,” he ended dramatically. “ Agreed so answer my questions,” I frowned. “ Pfft, such a kill joy,” he pouted. “ Your mom invited me for dinner so I came but you didn't know since you didn't have dinner tonight. Secondly, I'm hungry,” he answered before heading back to eating. “ Even if you weren't invited for dinner, you'd still be here,” I sighed. “ Bingo! So there's actually no reason to ask,
