Filed To Story: Dumped by Scumbag Adored by Billionaire
My hurt heart but I continued watching the video and was quite startled when two men appeared out of nowhere, face covered and both dressed thoroughly in dark clothes .
One of them captured her from behind and pressed a white cloth against her nose – I bet it was drugged.
Though she struggled but the drug kicked in and she slumped into his arms.
Her abductor brought out a black bag, dropped it over her head and the both dumped her in the booth of their car parked at the side.
But what shocked me the most was when one of them brought out a placard with an inscription and raised it boldly for the camera to capture.
Eyes narrowed, I zoomed in on the video and saw ” Sakuzi Says Hi ” written on the placard.
Then he joined his partner in the car and drove off and the video ended.
My jaw ticked as I faced Judy, “Didn’t I ask you guys to strengthen Security tonight, how did this happen?! What the f*ck were you guys doing?! playing? fooling around?!. ” I roared and tossed the cell phone causing it to smash as it hit the floor.
Judy blinked but he didn’t dare to move and answered calmly ” I think it was an insider job, one of our people betrayed us “
I ran my hands through my hair, gripping and tousling it on purpose. First the kiss, now this, I was slowly losing my mind.
Sakuzi was purposely taunting me, he was inciting me to action. God how could I have been so stupid? This was why I wasn’t supposed to play favourites.
Contrary to my belief, he didn’t give up all these years but rather was vigilantly watching and now he has struck; found my weakness at last.
I balled my fist and commanded “Track down that car and gather the forces, we’ll be paying Sakuzi a well earned visit “
Judy was shocked, he objected at once “The chairman wouldn’t be pleased, moreover it’s too risky. “
I raised a brow while a mirthless smile twisted my lips ” Are you under me or my father? “
My voice was cold, Judy shivered upon seeing the murderous glint in my eyes .
He choked. ” B-but.. the chairman…”
I yanked him closer by the collar and spat ” That was an order not a request , so get your ass moving “
I released him and strode away.
Judy’s royalty was undoubtedly, but this time he was wavering, the mission was too risky.
“Niles! ” Someone called again and I turned around vexed, but my already boiling anger climbed up the chart when I discovered it was Eden.
“What’s going on? “
“None of your business ” I spat and turned around but he grabbed my shoulder .
I swiftly turned around, grabbed his hand intending to twist it , but he was fast and slipped away but grabbed mine instead.
However I was quick too but we ended up fighting for wrist control, the both of us aiming for the hand since it would give any of us leverage over the other.
Our hand grip fight was so tough that we ended up grappling and seized each other’s arm in a tight hold .
“Something is wrong, why are you assembling your forces all of a sudden? ” He still repeated his question.
“Why? ” I shot him a look of disdain ” So you can tell on me or.. ,” I faltered on purpose and cocked a brow ” Stab me in the back like you did the night Kay died?. “
His eyes slowly widened and my smirk grew, did he actually think I wouldn’t find out what he did.
I drew him closer and said to him with all manner of seriousness ” Keep on counting your blessings cause I’m counting the bad deeds for you one after the other “
Then I broke the grip by forcefully pushing him away “And also, mind your business.”
I finalized and entered the elevator leading to the hotel lobby, the old man can knock himself out with the Gala.
Judy had already cleared the reporters at the entrance, started the car engine and was waiting for my arrival.
I slid into the car and asked at once “Have you tracked down the car? “
“Didn’t break a sweat at all, ” He answered .
I rubbed my chin thoughtfully, Sakuzi intentionally wants me to find him which means Maria is safe – at least until I arrive.
” Where is everyone? “
“Three sixty degrees ” Judy said and I looked through both windows after the other and saw cars waiting on both sides and they flashed their headlights twice as some sort of signal.
I looked back and front and witnessed the same thing, everyone was prepared and awaiting my orders.
” And this, ” Judy said and tossed a CZ 75 to me which I caught ” Just in case “
I understood what he meant, Incase he couldn’t protect me, I could protect myself.
I checked the gun; it was well loaded, tested the grip; it fitted my hands very comfortably.
It was time.
“Let’s go “
Maria’s POV
“They warned her, don’t go there
There’s creatures who are hiding in the dark”
I guess her mother must have said the same to Little Red Riding Hood just before she set off to her grandmother’s place – just as Izzy said to me but look who didn’t listen .
“She knew she was hypnotized
And walking on cold thin ice
Then it broke, and she awoke again”
I guess I was a fool though I always had the feeling all along. I was treading on thin ice but welcomed it with open arms, fooled by his good looks and sugar coated words just like the wolf in the story, but now I was jerked back to the reality of life .
Feeling so embarrassed, I walked away through the back entrance because I didn’t want to encounter the reporters – they would definitely have a field day after this event.
Tina must be over the moon right now while Eden would probably be like “I told you so ” and Izzy…., well Izzy would probably chide me with that attitude of hers ” I warned you , didn’t I ?”
I was so mortified right now, wishing nothing but for the earth to open up and swallow me whole. How could they do this to me ?
Though my mind kept telling me Niles was fooled into this, I didn’t want to believe it ; it gave me a reason to hate him .
Right now I just wanted to hide from everybody, away from this cause my heart was hurting terribly – I even told him I loved him!
What a great fool I was! Perhaps Kim was right, I am a curse, a failure, destined not to see good things .
I had to disappear, away from sight, away from the Sparks family, away from all this craziness, away from Niles .
But then I realized I was not with my purse. In that moment of panic I had left it at the table – my credit cards, cell phone and cash were in there .
“Shit! ” I cursed, realizing just how much I screwed up. I shook my head, there was no way I was returning to that ballroom , no way – I would rather trek to death than do that .
But then I couldn’t go through the entrance either, some of the reporters were still outside and they had seen me ride with Niles.
They weren’t called reporters for no reason, they would probably figure out something was wrong and bombard me with never ending questions.
