Ava wanted to talk to Lola about the drinks that Derek had offered them, but the man was seated opposite them, going through the contract file, or at least, pretending to. She couldn’t say anything to the woman and knew that she had to behave to avoid any problem raising.The bodyguard walked into the meeting room with a tray and two glasses of half-filled whiskey for the two women. He made sure the drink was placed well, with the laced drink placed in front of Lola. The man then walked back to his boss, secretly giving him the signal that he had done as he was instructed.A smile grew across Derek’s face and he could already feel himself getting aroused at the mere thought of plunging himself deep into Lola, while she lost her mind to the sexual pleasure beneath him. “Please, ladies, have your drink.”Lola glanced at Ava to find the younger woman with a worried expression. She misunderstood that expression as Ava not being a drinker. Therefore, Lola turned back to the bald man with a
Derek now had a lewd expression on his face. “It’s exactly what it looks like, Miss Lola. You simply do not have my permission to leave until I get what I want from you.”Lola raised an eyebrow at this bald man in the suit. “And what is it exactly that you want from me?” She appeared calm on the surface but her heart was racing furiously at the moment.Derek smirked at the question. “C’mon, you’re a freaking Sales Director after all so I know you’re dumb. Unless you get naked with me in a special room and let me have my absolute full of you, you will not be leaving this place.”Ava gasped and covered her mouth as she heard these words from Derek. Fear gripped her heart, not for herself but rather for Lola who was currently in this conundrum because of her. If she hadn’t convinced Lola to come with her to this place, this would have never happened to Lola. Feeling responsible, Ava knew that she had to save Lola no matter what. At this point, she didn’t care what would happen to her, bu
Apart from the bodyguard who had been hit in the groin and hadn’t healed from the pain, the other bodyguards began beating the poor woman up. Ava was thus thrown into a world of pain as she was punched and kicked. The sales manager could only yell out in pain as tears slid down her face.In the car outside, Lola was already on her emergency contact.“My love, what’s up?” Miles’s voice came through the call.“Miles, please, get over here as soon as you can?! Someone is in great danger and I need your help?!” Lola conveyed all her anguish in her words, hoping her husband would understand how desperate Ava was in need of saving. At this point, her eyes were filled with tears. Fifteen minutes later, Miles arrived at the venue in his car. Immediately after he had packed the vehicle, he walked out of it, searching around for his wife. Lola had filled him in on everything that went down in that meeting venue with Derek Webber, including how she was hiding away in her car in a parking lot.
Ava was sobbing heavily as one of the bodyguards in the room held her by her arms and twisted behind her while the other bodyguards kept slapping her face over and over again. She had blood trickling down her face at this point. The other bodyguard who had been kicked by Ava in the balls earlier still couldn’t walk properly. He had a pack of ice placed between his legs while his trousers were down while glaring hatefully at Ava, glad that she was getting beat up.As for Derek Webber, he was seated back while taking a glass cup of whiskey. “I’m willing to forgive you, Miss Ava, as long as you bow down to me and ask for forgiveness twenty times.”Ava was heaving from the exhaustion and agony at this point, but she simply kept quiet.At this moment, the door was suddenly kicked down and Derek became alert while his bodyguards froze as well. There, right at the entrance, they all saw Miles and Lola standing right behind him.Derek smirked. “Ah! I see the runaway slut has returned to get h
Derek felt his heart lurch as it was racing faster the closer Miles got to him. He quickly glanced around the room while trying to scoot back on the table in desperation. He found those three bodyguards, who had ganged up against poor Ava earlier, now passed out on the floor. A thread of hopelessness was starting to grow thicker within his chest when he noticed that he still had one more bodyguard who had not been knocked out.“You!” Derek pointed at the bodyguard who had his trousers down to his ankle while he was holding an ice pack on his groin, where Ava had kicked him earlier. “Are you fucking seeking death?! Can’t you see I’m under attack right now?! If that bastard gets close to me, I’ll make you feel a lifetime worth of agonizing pain far much worse than that swollen ball you have that ice pack over.”The miserable bodyguard swallowed hard in fear of the threat that his boss just made at him. He quickly pulled out his gun from the holster he had attached to his belt, which was
Miles halted his assault and he turned back to find the four bodyguards, who he had knocked out outside this building, were now awake and all pointing guns at him.Miles chuckled. “Or what? What will you do if I don’t get off of him?” He turned back and he resumed punching Derek who was desperately trying to keep his life from being snuffed by this crazy man.The bodyguards frowned in annoyance and all four of them pulled the triggers on their gun only to find nothing being shot out of them. They were left confused initially, and they pulled the trigger multiple times only to be left with the same results.“Your gun is empty of all bullets. I made sure of it.” Miles didn’t even turn back to these four bodyguards as he just continued punching Derek in the face. He had lightened his assault though, as he didn’t want Derek to pass out.The four bodyguards were left stunned and they threw away their empty guns with anger as they checked their guns and confirmed that they were indeed empty
The day of the antique event was finally here. Miles saw his wife off to her busy work at the company and his daughter off to her school for the day before he left the house as well. Miles was currently driving towards the destination when he got a call from his father-in-law. “Mr. Blaine, I was just about to call you. I’m currently on my way to the event.”“Good, I was starting to get worried that you wouldn’t show up.” Jonathan’s calm voice came through the call. “Once you get here, just give me a call.”“Will do,” Miles replied and the call came to an end.By the time Miles got there, he found the event venue was filled with a decent amount of people around the place. He got out of the car and made the call to his father-in-law. When Jonathan came out of the event hall to greet Miles, the heir to the Creek family did not expect to see Lesley here at all. His sister-in-law smiled a bit awkwardly at him but she didn’t really disrespect him, which was quite weird to Miles. After all,
Miles was being showered with compliments from Frederick, much to Jonathan’s satisfaction and Lesley’s astonishment. She still had trouble digesting what had just happened.At that moment, Miles caught sight of two men in suits walking into the venue, not too far away from him and his group. He soon recognizes these two men as his former classmates back in college. One was August Leonard, the man he had health with about a week ago during their class reunion. As for the other one, he recalled that his name was Joseph Rutherford. He didn’t have much relationship with this guy either. In Joseph’s hand, he found a sizeable but flat object wrapped in Brown paper. Miles could immediately tell that this item was a picture of some sort.Miles watched both Joseph Rutherford and August Leonard walk towards a man with a poised demeanor and a lean build. They shook hands with him before Joseph brought the flat object in his hand forward. All three men conversed with one another, and it was at th
