No Escape From Mr. CEO's Dangerous Love

Thomas lovingly tossed her loose hair behind her ears and smiled. "How about treating me to dinner some other day to thank me?" He didn't expect her to say yes.

To his pleasant surprise, Lola abruptly nodded without any hesitation. "Oh, no problem. It's on me!" She really wanted to thank him properly. What he did for her earlier was heroic.

For the first time, Thomas had experienced the feeling of being flattered. He felt more than ever that he needed to guard and protect her.

"Go home and rest early. You work too hard. You should look after yourself, too." He said in a soft voice. He knew that as an acting CEO of the SL Group, Lola was very devoted to her work. He hoped to be of help to her.

She agreed. With a friendly smile, she put on the coat and sat in Joseph's car.

"I will have the coat washed and sent to you by tomorrow. Thank you for this." She turned around to face him and promised him that.

Thomas nodded. With a humorous tone, he said, "Hey, you need to deliver the coat by yourself!"

Lola replied with a grin and the car drove off.

Thomas saw them rush off and returned to his own car. His driver greeted him and they took off from the parking lot.

But as soon as Thomas's car disappeared in the distance, Lola's car returned.

She almost forgot that she urgently needed to see Harry and discuss about Nicole! She stepped out of the car and looked around. She soon spotted Harry's car in the parking lot.

Not far from here, Harry and Lillian were actually walking towards her direction.

"Harry!" Lola called out as she ran towards them.

He heard her voice and looked up. Lola was wearing a suit coat and a pair of high heels. It was not easy to wear the stiletto heels. Lola was cautious while running.

Lillian cast a quick glance at Harry. Without saying anything, she sat into the car first. She does not need any permission for this. This was for her daughter.

Harry had mixed feelings about this. He sat in the car with Lillian and pretended that he did not care about Lola.

He ruthlessly closed the car door in her face. Only half of the car window was left open.

Lola leaned against the window. As she was gasping for air, she hurriedly asked, "Harry, where is Nicole?"

"She's not here." Leaning against the seat, he replied with his eyes closed.

Not here? ? ? Lola's eyes widened in anger. Her voice was shaking, "Why don't you bring her to me?" She snapped at him. His indifference about important matters always made her mad.

Harry opened his eyes. With a cold glance, he replied, "Do you have any other questions? I'm kind of busy here."

Lola hit her palms on the car window. She was utterly speechless at Harry's answer. Then she turned to Lillian and asked, "Lillian, do you love my brother or not? What's the meaning of this? What kind of woman are you?" She had no idea what was going on between Joseph and Lillian but she challenged her with the question anyway.

Lillian's face turned pale. She thought about her father's words and then she said with a soft voice, "Tell Joseph that I don't love him. The man I want is named... Harry!" She knew what the consequence would be once she gave her this answer. She didn't want this too. From now on, she had nothing to do with Joseph and she had officially become the love rival of Lola.

...

Under the dim light, Lola gazed at the couple in utter disbelief. Harry was still in his mysterious-looking self and Lillian was kind of lost in her thoughts. Both of them really looked strange.

Physically, they were a natural match but both of them have different personalities. She stood alone outside of the car like an idiot.

Her heart skipped a beat. Lola felt desperate at that very moment. She felt so alone.

She bitterly curled up her lips. Yolanda was gone but here came Lillian. Why couldn't the universe let both her and Harry be together? Would that never happen again?

Suddenly, it started to drizzle. Little raindrops hit her and wet her half-dried beautiful long hair.

Finally, she opened her mouth and said with a dry voice, "Harry, just give Nicole back to me... I will let go of you! Really let go! I... promise! Just give me back my child!"

Time seemed still as the rain became heavier. Lola's makeup began to smear.

Harry's tight fists revealed his true feelings and scornfully replied, "Lola, for the past four years, how have you been treating me? You kept her as a secret from me. Now you dare to ask her back? You wish! She is my child, too!"

What did he say? Lola couldn't feel her legs. She was starting to feel really numb. She sat on the ground, gazing into the emptiness in front of her. Inside the car, Lillian reassured her, "If I could be with Mr. Lewis, I would treat Nicole as my own child."

As her own child? No, she would hate to see that!

"Joey, start the car!" His tone was so cold and emotionless. She has never felt so alone like this before.

Lola watched the limo drive away as her vision began to blur. Out of desperation, she shouted at the top of her voice: "Harry, I hate you!"

An umbrella appeared over her head. Joseph extended his hand to her. "Sis, let's go home.", he said so as he helped her get up from the ground. Joseph walked Lola to the car. Each of her step was heavy and remorseful.

Inside the car, they didn't talk at all. Joseph had a vague idea on what had happened. His sister was heartbroken. He thought the only reason would be that Harry and Lillian decided to be together.

Joseph grinned with bitterness. What a joke! His woman was going to be the new lover of his ex-brother-in-law! That man did not have real emotions. He was absolutely amused...and angered.

The rain was still pouring down when they arrived at the gate of the Newman villa. Lola sadly opened the car door herself and stumbled to the porch.
