No Escape From Mr. CEO's Dangerous Love
Chapter 245
Joseph had a gut feeling that he should say something nice for Harry because he had given him a lot of favors before. He thought that Harry wanted something in return.
However, he swallowed down whatever he was about to say. He just couldn't be untrue to himself. Instead, he simply said, "It's Lola's own business. Why don't you ask her yourself? I don't know much about it either!"
Jordan cast a cold glance at his restless brother and replied, "What's the use of you then? Don't you know how to protect Lola? She's our sister, for God's sake!"
Joseph felt offended by his remarks. The truth was, he was not always in Ascea. His sister had always had a wrong temper. She had always been a brave girl. The only person that could actually hurt her was Harry.
The question was, what could he possibly do to confront Harry about this? He owed that guy a lot of favors! He just couldn't ditch him like that. He had already given him a car and a flat. He sometimes felt as if he was Harry's mistress because of how he spoiled him. Even the company he worked for now belonged to Harry.
On second thought, he did feel like something was really wrong here. He realized that he could be just a puppet for Harry.
One thing he was sure about was that Harry definitely loved his sister. There was no denying that. But as it was their own private matter, he and his brother should just stay out of it. Harry and Lola were already old enough to take care of their problems.
Joseph's mind had just turned to a clutter. He had not solved his own issue and yet here came his sister's problem. He desperately needed some peace and solace!
Ignoring his elder brother's furious gazing, he stumbled out of the study and returned to his bedroom.
Lola tossed her wet clothes aside and stepped into the bathroom. She felt much better after a hot shower but emotionally, she couldn't stop hurting just yet.
Thomas's expensive coat looked all ruined. She felt sorry for him and planned to buy a new one tomorrow.
Wendy sat on the bedside with a hair dryer in her hand. Upon seeing Lola so lost in her thoughts, she smiled and asked Lola to come closer so that she could dry her hair for her.
She was Lola's sister-in-law but she has always acted just like Lola's mother. Deep down, she felt grateful for her family as both Lola and her mother-in-law treated her nicely. Wendy felt obliged to return their kindness every now and then.
The room was quiet, and only the sound of the hair dryer could be heard. Lola didn't feel like talking at all. Wendy respected that and didn't ask her questions either.
She knew that if Lola wanted to talk, she would have spit out everything a long time ago. It was pointless for her to bother Lola with loads of questions if she was not in the mood of talking.
But tonight, Wendy will accompany her to sleep. She does not want Lola to be alone in her thoughts right now. She looked at her healthy, flawless skin and smiled. "Sister-in-law, aren't you super happy with my brother?" She could tell from her radiant aura that she was in a very happy marriage.
Wendy felt a bit shy and whispered, "Stop it. I would always feel happy once you and mother are home!" As for her quiet and emotionless husband, she was not that into him!
Wendy blushed as a big smile uncontrollably spread over her face. Lola looked at Wendy and felt truly happy for her. She has made the right decision back then! How lucky of her...
"Wendy, he won't give Nicole back to me. I miss my daughter so much." Lola finally opened up her heart and shared her worries with Wendy.
On hearing her words, Wendy frowned and immediately felt sadder. It was really tough to deal with. Harry was a man of power and limitless capabilities. They had no chance of winning in getting Nicole back by force. It would be so pointless.
"Why don't you marry each other again?" It would be nice for both of them. Nicole would get to see both her mother and father more often. More importantly, she would see them together.
Lola thought about marrying him again. However, his attitude was so nasty that it literally drove her crazy! Besides, he had a new girl now. "I don't know why he was so into Lillian now. I don't know if he really loves her, or he's just making a point." She murmured to herself.
As far as she knew, Lillian used to be in Dreles all the time. She couldn't understand why she would be here. Lola was very confused.
"Lillian? Is this true?" Wendy remembered that lady. Long time ago, both Lillian and Lola were recognized by the upper class of Dreles as the most beautiful women in the city.
Then Lillian faded from the stage. It was not until now that she showed up again. But it was just so strange that she showed up as Harry's lover.
"You have no idea how much I hate him now. Yolanda was history but Lillian has taken over her role!" She knew Harry was playing in the field all this time. She couldn't care less. However, both Yolanda and Lillian were obviously serious in having a relationship with him.
Wendy tried to comfort her. "It is normal. Harry is a well-established man that there ought to be some women around him trying to win his heart. It's something that you should learn to live with, Lola." Yolanda and Lillian were two well-known names. She bet there were other women that Lola was not even aware.
The most important thing here was Harry's attitude.
"I feel so bad now. He really drives me crazy with his attitude. When he showed his love and care to me, I feel like standing on top of the world. I know he was not pretending it.
But when he was ruthless to me, his coldness could actually kill me. I know he was not pretending it either! What was he thinking? How could he do that to someone he loves?" It was said that women's hearts were impossible to guess. Harry's mind was even more difficult to read!
Lola shook her head in confusion. It never occurred to her that Harry would be this mad. "He is just overreacting! I did tell him the truth! I thought that he will be happy..." She frowned in distress.
The two women chatted until late that night but Lola was still depressed.
One of Wendy's ideas actually made sense that Lola should pretend dating another man. If Harry still loved her, he would definitely act on it and prevent it from happening.
After all, Harry was known to be a dominating and selfish man. He wouldn't tolerate her being with another man.
Lola decided to carry out this plan to see if Harry cared or not. If he turned her down again, she would really give up forever.
By then, it was no longer his problem if she married another man or not. She deserved to be happy, too.
Fair enough. It was now battle time for both of them!
The rain stopped the next morning. The weather was brilliant.
Lola went to the company in her brother's car.
To avoid remembering how hurt she was, she devoted herself into the tedious work. By lunch break, she had some time to call Mrs. Herbert and successfully got the answers she needed.
In the beginning though, Mrs. Herbert was not willing to talk about Nicole. But as Harry did not specifically forbid her from telling the truth, she gave out the address of Nicole's kindergarten school to Lola.
Two days later, Lola flew to Uthana.
She didn't contact Harry for days. She missed her daughter to bits as she had not talked to her for days. Those days were a torture for her.
But thanks to the address given by Mrs. Herbert, Lola finally saw her daughter in the kindergarten. She became so excited that she burst into tears.
Her Nicole, her sweet baby!
Since she was a new face in the school, Lola had to explain to the teacher that she was Nicole's mother. Nicole's tight embrace and happy smile eventually convinced the teacher.
She took her daughter by the hand and they left the kindergarten in a hurry. As soon as they left, the teacher called Harry and explained what had happened.
Harry paused on hearing the news. Then he simply said, "All right."
He didn't need to know more. He has expected that this would happen. He ended the call.
He knew for sure that Lola would not be able to take Nicole with her. He didn't mind that they are having a mother-and-daughter moment right now.
Lola did plan to sneak Nicole out of the country. She had a scheme that after lunch, she would take Nicole straight to the airport.
However, her plan failed. Half way to the airport, her taxi was stopped by Harry's car. He came out of nowhere!
The cold, murderous look in his eyes scared her!
... She and Nicole were immediately brought back to the mansion.
Inside the mansion.
The gate of the mansion were changed into two ebony planks. They looked taller and bigger. It seemed like Harry had already learned his lesson.
Harry made it clear to the security team that not a single person should be given permission to leave. With these words, he returned to the company to finish his work.
Lola wouldn't let the chance of taking her daughter home just slip away. However, as soon as she approached the gate, the security team showed up and stopped her in time.
She had to return to the mansion with her daughter. There, they played some toys together. Lola even took a bath with Nicole before putting her to sleep.
She fondly gazed at her sleeping face. Lola cherished every moment she had with Nicole. There were so precious to her. Soon, they would be worlds apart again.
Just as Lola was about to doze off by the bed side, she was woken up by a gush of cool breeze. It was already eleven in the evening.
She immediately opened her eyes only to find Harry standing next to her, gazing at her with no emotions on his face.
Her vision was still blurred but she came to her senses within seconds.
She was now in Harry's room. He took her here by force.
She cast a look at her sleeping daughter and screwed up her courage to face Harry. Lola touched the thing in her pocket as she bravely held up Harry's hand. Together, they walked out of the bedroom.
On the balcony.
The stars were shining in the dark sky like millions of diamonds. The cold sea breeze made Lola shiver. Thinking about her next move, Lola felt cold sweat forming up on her forehead.
Harry was in a gray shirt. He looked relaxed as he leaned against the chair on the balcony.
Lola clenched her fist. She had to do this for the sake of her daughter! Without warning, she knelt on one knee and said, "Harry, I am going to propose to you! I need you to marry me!"
... Harry was utterly speechless by Lola's move. He felt greatly offended by her proposal. This was the least of his expectations.
He had no idea that he, as a man, would be proposed to by a woman like this!
Lola panicked and immediately became helpless. Judging from Harry's gloomy face, she had screwed things up!
Before she realized anything, Harry grabbed her by the arm and lifted her up. He forced her against the wall and snapped with a deep voice, "Lola, are you out of your mind?"
Lola dodged his angry gaze, pulled over his hand and forcefully put a plastic ring on his little finger. It was a ring that she had brought from the children's toy store.
The ring was way too small for his finger. It stuck on the first knuckle.
Harry unbelievably looked at the plastic ring. He honestly could not feel more upset.
He took off the ring without saying anything. The next second, he tossed the ring into the deep ocean with all his strength!
Lola looked at him with great disappointment. Her plan went through as she had expected.
She was not confident at all that her proposal would work. She had expected this, anyway. In order not to waste money on the diamond ring if her proposal failed, she bought a plastic one just in case.
If Harry did agree to marry her, she wouldn't mind buying him a ten-carat diamond ring later on!
Staring at the endless ocean, Lola tossed her long hair back. Never mind, it still was worth trying!
She had it coming. Since it was a matter between she and Harry, she didn't feel ashamed at all! Nobody would know.
