All Chapters of Tangled in vengeance and desire: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Ava's povI went to shower, my heart filled with joy because of our plan. We finally had a way out, thank goodness I collected the gold from Julian that day. Coming out of the bathroom, Julian stared at me with lustful eyes and a blush crept to my cheeks."Look away," I said, more like a command and his eyes glistened with amusement. "Are you seriously telling me to look away?" He pouted like a baby. I chuckled, crossing my arm across my chest. "Yes, look away or I will take you back to your room," I threatened playfully. "You can't," he stucked his tongue out. I laughed at his childish behavior. Spending time with him again was refreshing and I hoped Alex wouldn't return soon. I grabbed my clothes from the closet, walking back to the bathroom to dress. After putting on a sweatpants and a sweatshirt, I tied my hair into a messy bun and turned on the water for Julian. "It's time for you to shower as well. Can you do that yourself?" I asked julian, and he nodded."I'm going downst

Ava's pov"Mom, what is this?" Aiden asked, walking towards us with the object in his hands. Julian collected it from him and smashed it on the ground. "It's a camera, Ava," he said with a groan. My heart skipped a beat at the thought of been watched all this while. We were in big trouble. "Go and meet your nanny, mommy will join you soon," I said to the kids and they frowned. "We don't want to leave," Diamond said stubbornly. "You have to go now. She will bring you back in," Julian assured her, kissing her forehead. "Diamond, let's go," Aiden held his hand out for her and they left the room. "How come we didn't notice that?" I panicked. "I'm sure the camera is not working," Julian said, waving it off. My eyes widened and I turned to him. "There was a red light on the camera! How can you say it's not working?" I demanded. He sighed as he walked towards me. "If it's working, don't you think Alex would call his men to beat us up? He won't allow any of this to happen if he is seei

Julian's povI helped the kids to the bed and watched as they slept peacefully. My heart swelled with love for them. I kissed their foreheads leaving the room quietly. Everything was finally getting better. We were planning to leave this house tonight to Africa. Africa was our last option where we would be free from all this mafia things. "What's up?" I asked Max when I saw him pacing in the living room. "I called Liya and she hasn't been picking up her calls," he replied worriedly. "What could be the problem?" I asked and he shrugged. "Use my number to call her. Let's see if she would pick this time," I gave him my phone. He dialed her number, it rang two times before she picked. I frowned suspecting something was wrong somewhere. "Hello Liya," Max said, I could feel anger radiating off him. The line went dead immediately she heard his voice. "This fucking bitch! How could she do this?" Max yelled angrily and I rubbed my temples. "He paid her already. Alex has escaped," I said

Ava's pov"Mommy! Where have you been?" A small boy who would be around four years asked with worry etched on his face.I was taken aback, did he just call me mommy?"Who is your mommy?" I asked, there was a barrier blocking me from walking towards him."You are my mommy. Don't you remember me? It's me Aiden," he replied, trying to reach out to me. I was quiet, I had no idea who he was. Could I possibly have a son and I don't remember him? It was funny because I had no idea who I was too. Everything was strange. "Please, come and take me away from here. I don't like it in here, mommy. I don't like it here!" He yelled, tears streaming down his face and my heart broke seeing him cry. His voice echoed in my head severally. My eyes snapped open, my body was drenched in sweat. I took in my surroundings. The room was large, painted in white and a girl's picture was on the wall. My heart thumped against my chest, I felt so weak and tired so I couldn't stand up. The dream I had about the

Alex's povI clenched my jaw, frustration boiling over as I yelled into the phone. "What are you even saying? How can you tell me you had an accident with the car and everything was spoiled? We are talking about goods worth of fifty million dollars!""I'm sorry, sir. It wasn't intentional," My manager in America replied, Jude his voice trembling. "Jude, this is the second time! Goods of a hundred million dollars in a month. What the hell is wrong with you?" I demanded, anger evident in my voice. "I'm sorry sir," he repeated and I hung up. He was messing with me, there was more to this, and I would find out. I made calls to the guards over there to confirm if he truly had an accident. They promised to give me feedback in two hours. Sighing, I sipped my drink. I was tired of everything going on all at once. It's been two month since Ava's death and everything with the kids had been a struggle.They had only begun to talk to me after a month. Diamond still hated me, but Aiden and I ma
