CHAPTER 101

Arabel's POVCold water splashes over my face, making me gasp and scramble out of bed.“Wakey, wakey, bridey.” Eve drops down the bowl of water beside the bed, then slumps next to me on a wooden chair before packing her hair into a bun. “I can't believe you are getting married.”I blink.Last night, I lost consciousness because Alex hit me, and now I am getting married. I didn't think it was going to be this soon.Tears suddenly spring to my eyes as my heart constricts painfully in my chest.“Oh, sweet God! Don't cry yet. It's your day!” Eve tries to wipe my tears, but I shove her hand away, making anger cross her expression.“Don't you dare hit me again!” I warn with a tone I can barely recognize, frustration coiling in my chest.She smirks and folds her arms around her bosom before stepping towards me. “What makes you think I will?”I gulp.What is happening? My life has completely changed in an instant. I am no longer running away from Richard but also in a mess of being forced to

CHAPTER 102

Arabel's POVThe abrupt halt of the car pulls me out of my reverie. Turning around, I see people entering and leaving a registry.Do I stand a chance at escaping here?Alex kisses my cheeks and then says, "Let's go."I don't spare him a glance. He is nothing but a monster.Wearily, I step down from the car, exhaustion hitting hard as my stomach also grumbles. Not only have I suffered a beating, but my stomach is also empty.It feels like a thousand worms are having a feast in my belly, making me wince at intervals.I have accepted my fate.There is little or nothing I can do right now. In a strange land, I won't even be able to leave his side or find someone to listen to me.No one is speaking English around here except for Eve and Alex.My eyes are dry and tired of crying.I am extremely exhausted and thinking of nothing but having a long, peaceful nap. Maybe when I sleep, I will wake up to realize all of this was a dream.I would rather have Richard chase me around the globe, have h

CHAPTER 103

Richard POVHorror rips a shout from my mouth as Alex trains a gun on Arabel, who is lying flat on the floor in a white wedding dress.Don't shoot! I want to scream as the men move fully into the hall, leaving the other couples in pandemonium.I can't believe Alex would kidnap Arabel and bring her all the way from New York just to force her to get married.Because her phone was in the car, we couldn't track her. I kept throwing curses at Leo, asking him to find a solution before it was too late.Then a call comes through.From a strange number. In Spain.I know no one there except Gonzales. He was once one of my business partners. But I had his number saved, and he wasn't the one calling.It was a call from Daisy.My poor girl was in tears as she told me what was happening. It turned out one of their men had left his phone behind at the house where she was kept alone without her mother. Knowing my number off-hand, Daisy called me. I told her to remain calm, and Daddy was on his way to

CHAPTER 104

Arabel's POVMy right hand feels crushed and I let a groan leave my mouth.Slowly, I open my eyes to see the handsome face of Richard hovering over me with a sad expression.I blink as everything rushes back in.Alex kidnapped me and Daisy. He was with Eve, and he was forcing me to marry him when a shot rang out. I didn't see Richard until Alex pulled me up with a gun to my head.I felt relief and fear at the same time.Relief that he was there to help. And fear that something bad would happen, or he wouldn't mind getting hurt in my place.“Arabel?” His voice jerks me out of my reverie as he peers down at me intensely with a worried-filled expression.It makes tears spring from my eyes.I survived. I'm safe.“Are you okay? Should I call the doctor?” He moves closer, touching my forehead. This is when I notice the bandage hanging over his shoulder and arm.I try to sit up, but it is difficult because the pain seeps in from my right arm to every part of my body.Then it dawns on me.I w

CHAPTER 105

Richard’s POVArabel has been out for almost 24 hours, making me worried with each passing hour.When she finally woke up, a wave of relief hit me, filling me with joy that she survived it.When I told her Alex was dead, she cried so much till she fell into a deep slumber. She feels sorry for him, but I don't.From the bruises around her eyes, one could tell that he hit her. Being forced to the altar is enough damage to a woman's mental health. Not only did he do that, but he also hurt her physically.A real man wouldn't raise his hands on a woman. And he deserves to be gone for hitting my woman.The moment I saw the bruises and the black eye, I felt like killing him over and over again.What would have happened if Gonzales didn't get there on time? What would have happened if we were a minute late?The thought fills my insides with dread.Ashley and Caleb flew here last night after I told them what happened. I didn't want my mother to know, so I told them not to tell her.I know they

CHAPTER 106

Arabel's POVI wake up with a jolt, beads of trepidation dropping from my temple as I make eye contact with Richard.“Bella, are you okay?” He hurries over to my side, sliding into the bed and embracing me.I can't help but hug him back.Knowing he is here and the dream wasn't a reality, has relief washing down every part of my system.I can't handle being tortured again. I don't think I can survive being in that hell again. Not again.Alex is dead, but that isn't doing anything to eliminate my fear and trauma. I keep having nightmares of him pulling the trigger, hurting me over and over again.It makes me teary.I abruptly pull away, realizing I'm hugging the same man I should be angry with, and ask. "What are you doing here?"Confusion replaces the worry on his face as he leans back before answering. “I told you I was coming with you.”“And I told you to go back home. I can take care of myself!” I snap at him, as he continues to stare at me.Instead of responding to me, he stays sil

CHAPTER 107

Richard's POVThe ringing sound of my phone cuts my laughter short as I dig my hand into my pants pocket to fish out the phone with my gaze still fixed on Daisy watering the flowers.I glance at my screen and see that it is Amy, my secretary.She was employed after Ashley resigned. She is nowhere near as excellent as Ashley, but she is okay.Having been away from work for about a month, I wouldn't be this concerned if Ashley was still my secretary.Amy calls me for every single thing.I get that she is still new, but some of her calls are totally unnecessary. I'm thinking of asking Ashley to help me put her through some things while I'm here in London.“Amy?” As soon as I answer the call, Daisy turns to face me. I signal to her to continue watering the flowers before I move away.“Good morning, sir,” she says politely. “Are you back in New York?”“No, Amy. I told you I would be back next week, didn't I?” I remember telling her this a week ago, and two weeks ago, too.“The appointment

CHAPTER 108

Arabel's POVMy eyes drift open at the sound of Richard's voice. When I can't see him anywhere around, I lift myself up from the bed, wincing a little, and rest my back on the headboard.He arrives with a phone glued to his right ear.Our eyes lock.“I will have Scott come to you in a couple of hours,” he mutters, his gaze not leaving mine. “Good. Thank you.”He drops the call, and a smile creeps to his face.A frown is etched on my face as I begin to wonder how I got into bed.“Hey,” Richard says, closing the distance between us, his gaze not wavering. “Are you okay?”When I don't answer, he presses his lips on mine briefly before pulling away while I sit still, just in time for his phone to start ringing again.“Work?” I watch him bounce his gaze from me to his phone. He is indecisive on whether to pick up the call or not, probably because he thinks I will convince him to go back home again.“I will call her later, are you okay?” He presses the reject button, then digs it back into

CHAPTER 109

Arabel's POVBy the time I drive into the open gates of Ashley's home, I can't keep my left hand from trembling with intense pain.My decision to drive here with one hand unbandaged and the other in cast is an impulsive one, but I was too desperate to be here to think of another alternative.I carefully park the car in the garage and exit, a wince leaving my mouth.I am not supposed to drive here myself, but the tension around Richard and I since I found out about my pregnancy has been so awkward.We haven't talked about it, and Ashley was the first person who came to mind. I could barely stay calm back at the hospital. All I was thinking of was Ashley and about coming here to see her.When I get to the front door, my phone begins to ring, but I ignore it as I hasten to go in.Ashley doesn't know I'm here. The moment I see her maid, I flash her a quick smile. “Where is she?”“In the living room,” she answers after greeting me politely.Without hesitation, I practically jog to the livi

CHAPTER 110

Richard's POVShe is wearing the dress.Emotions begin to spiral as I try hard to keep the tears from flowing.When she turns to me, I dart my eyes away quickly and focus on the road.Finally, she breaks the silence. “Where are we going, Richard?”The sound of my voice leaving her beautiful, inviting lips sounds so much like music to me. It prompts me to steal another glance at her beautiful face.She raises a brow, reminding me of the question.“You will see,” I only say, forcefully peeling my eyes off her and hoping she won't insist on knowing where I am taking her. “We are almost there.”Silence falls.The fact that she is wearing the dress I bought for her, which I left on the bed before sending her a text to get dressed because I have somewhere to take her, brings me immense joy.It's tempting me to grab her in my arms and slam my lips on hers.After a few more minutes of driving in silence, I pull over in front of the diner, nervousness sinking into my system.She looks out of t
