The sound of the phone ringing made Oliver and Lord Tate stop talking as the secretary took the phone to Tate, Oliver signaled for the phone to be given to him but Tate refused.“I picked the call yesterday, something will seem fishy if someone else answers it today,” Lord Tate explained and Oliver nodded. He has to listen to the old lord and not let his emotions get the best of him.“Hello.” Lord Tate said as soon as he answered the call and Sienna was surprised, she wasn’t expecting them to answer the call so soon. Fear washed through her and she was about to hang up when Keith urged her on.Lucian and the secretary started working on tracking the location immediately and it was taking so long that they had to tell Lord Tate to find a way to keep the conversation going.“How do I know that they’re both safe and alive?” Lord Tate asked and Sienna laughed, “I can’t pay that huge amount of money only to find out that they are dead.” He added.Sienna nodded to Keith to bring Arianna, sh
“We’re going to die here before you’re able to get anything from my grandfather if you don’t feed us.” Arianna spoke up when she heard the door close.She knew that they’d already come back inside and since her stomach had been growling all day, she couldn’t possibly ignore the feeling of hunger that was rippling through her.Her stomach felt like it was going to tear apart and Megan was so hungry that she also felt like she was going to die but none of the kidnappers cared about them.Sienna and Keith shared a look and Keith shrugged, Arianna is right, if they wanted to get money out of Lord Tate, they had to make sure that both of them are in good health.Sienna made her way outside to get something for them to eat and even though it’s nothing much, she was glad to see Arianna and Megan eating happily despite being blindfolded.She brought out the mask she bought on her way back and handed one to Keith as she ordered him to put it on, she put hers on and finally opened Arianna and M
Lord Tate and Ezra ended up talking for a little while and Ezra asked for the address so that he could be there the next time the kidnappers called.The call ended and Lord Tate handed the phone over to his secretary so he could send the address to Ezra. Lucian and Oliver were both focused on trying to track down the kidnappers.Waiting was doing things to Oliver that he doesn’t like and it was almost as though he should be there already to beat them up but he’d made up his mind to let the cops handle it if they were small fries, which they are.“That was Megan’s brother.” Lord Tate announced and Oliver shot his head up at once, he didn’t know that Megan’s brother was in town but there was no way he could've known with all the jobs he had to handle.“Her brother? Really?” He asked and lord Tate nodded, “why is he around, I thought none of them cares about her enough to bother if she was dead or alive.” He said angrily.Lord Tate only laughed before telling Oliver that Megan and Ezra w
Ezra was shocked, he couldn’t believe that he was standing in front of the man his sister had told him so much about but it appeared that the man was rude and Ezra didn’t really like him.If only his sister was around, he was going to tell her that he didn’t like Jackson but she’s not here and both of them have to get along if he wants to make his sister happy.Oliver rolled his eyes as he cleaned his mouth with the napkin before walking past Ezra. He was mad at the entire Kendrick family and still couldn’t believe that they’d disowned Megan.“What are you doing here?” He asked spitefully, he didn’t want Ezra anywhere around because if they’re able to rescue Megan, he feels like it could bring back bad memories if the only person that came for her was her brother.“Isn’t it obvious,” Ezra laughed nervously, trying his best to not get mad at Oliver, “I’m here because of my sister.” He added.“That’s shocking considering how none of you has ever thought of being here for her but it’s fi
What on earth could make Delilah think that he was calling to apologize to Sienna when he was the one that was wronged and treated unfairly? Returning the phone to his pocket, he walked back to the living room quietly,Lucian and Lord Tate were still trying to explain what their next line of action is to Ezra and they told him that they’ve decided to wait until the kidnappers called the next day.“What if they hurt my sister?” Ezra asked, he was scared and hated the fact that he couldn’t do anything to help while everyone was doing everything in their power to help.He felt like a coward because if it really came down to it, he doesn’t really have any martial skill and would end up getting hurt.“I mean, we should inform the police and let them know of this.” He added but Oliver only shook his head and ignored him.“And informing the police would automatically guarantee your sister’s safety?” He asked before passing a snide remark on how stupid Ezra is.“I don’t know but that’s better
Sienna couldn’t believe her ears and when she asked Keith again, he repeated what he’d said. Fear washed all over her and instead of thinking of ways to get Oliver back, all she could bring herself to think about was what Oliver was going to do if he found out that she had kidnapped Megan.Weak, Sienna looked for somewhere to sit on and held her chest as she tried to regulate her breathing. She’s completely oblivious to the fact that he’d already called her mother.“You knew this and still decided to kidnap her?” She was almost shouting but tried to keep her voice down, “you knew she was pregnant, do you not know Jackson Moore?” She added.Fear of what was going to happen washed through her veins but that wasn’t the reaction Keith was hoping for. Smiling, he crouched in front of her and told her that he had a plan.She couldn’t believe the kind of person that Keith was but when he told her the plan, she couldn’t help but agree to it.It didn’t involve her hurting Megan and it was also
“W.. what… what do you mean what did I do now?” Sienna asked as she angrily dropped the plate on the center table. Part of her was scared of the fact that Oliver could find out while the other was mad at her mother.How could she just conclude that she did something without asking what was going on in the first place. Delilah’s fist clenched and her teeth gritted as she faced her daughter in a fit of rage, she knew Sienna was capable of making stupid decisions and the last one was what cost them their old house.“Because I know you,” Delilah yelled, “I don’t trust you and I know that you’re still following that good for nothing boy like a dog.” She added, referring to Keith.Sienna's mouth opened but she couldn’t form any word as she had no idea what to say. Her mother was right about the fact that she was still following Keith.She knew that nothing good could ever come out of following Keith but she also knew that it’s because of him that she might be able to get Oliver.“We lost o
Without saying another word, Oliver made his way to his room confused with no idea what he was going to do or if he was actually ready to have a child at a crucial point of his life like this.From what Lord Tate had told him outside, he knew that Megan wanted to keep the baby and he couldn’t possibly turn his back on her because he impregnated her.Not only that, he couldn’t deny that he was starting to have feelings for her, he couldn’t deny that he was falling in love with but the huge question of whether he was ready to take care of a baby was too huge to answer.Lucian knew the kind of conflict that Oliver was in and he was going to let him think about it thoroughly but he also knew that Oliver needed someone to talk to even if he didn't say anything about it.“What are you going to do?” Lucian’s voice jolted Oliver out of his thoughts and he had no idea that Lucian had followed him inside his room.He sighed as he sat on the edge of his bed, for one, the only thing he wanted to
