Lahat ng Kabanata ng Tangled In CEOs' Beds: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

030Lorenzo.Lavender left the car so I waited patiently for her to return. I rolled up the window, making myself comfortable.I then spotted a lady selling some iced colored water at the other side of the road.I rolled down the window, gesturing for her to bring me one of them. She did immediately and I handed some cash to her, telling her to keep the change.As I sipped the water, I let out a sigh occasionally at the chill the way it glided down my throat.It came with a little orange flavor to flow with the orange coloring.I placed it down in the center console, sighing as I pressed the seat back to relax.Just as I started to feel comfortable, I heard a knock on the window.I never expected Lavender to be back so quickly. Just as I was about to open the door for her to come in, I noticed it wasn't her. It was her personal assistant who came to our wedding to inform Lavender about her mother's health.She flashed me a smile, waving her hand so I opened the door for her to get in.

032🚩🚩NOTE THAT THIS CHAPTER IS A NEW CHARACTER'S POINT OF VIEW!🚩🚩Sandra.I settled on the bed, looking at the room and still amazed after four hours of being there. It looked so luxurious, like a room designed for a god.I was scared to stand up as I was scared to see the stain my clothes made on the bedsheets. I knew I didn't fit into the room, but they put me there anyway to accommodate me.I waited patiently, eager to meet my daughter after a whole twenty-one years. Each day I lived, it felt like there was a missing piece of me.They said I would get over it in months, but I never did. Not in five years, not in ten years, not in fifteen years, not in twenty years, not in twenty-one years.I wanted my daughter. Though I might not be rich enough to take care of her, being with her would be all I needed to have a good night rest for once in twenty one years.I couldn't wait to see how much she's grown.It was disturbing to have a piece of you somewhere you can't reach.I wouldn'

034Sandra."What happened then in the yachts?"“We went to another city first before we would then go to another country, but at the other city, we were bundled in a cargo where some were separated for another country. There were other kidnapped people too from different cities who were also victims like us.”†_†_†_†_†FLASHBACK CONTINUES†_†_†_†_†“Bastard!” The man spat as he pulled the trigger, shooting a child.The mother screamed, crawling to her daughter's dead body.I cupped my lips, staying at the corner of the cargo and hiding Lavender in the sack clothes they provided that I was wearing.I cupped her mouth, whispering to her not to shout or they would kill her.I knew I couldn't hide her forever, that was for sure but they was no way I would let them know that I had a child in here since they were killing children.I held her close to my chest, protecting her with all I had.“You!" The man roared.I jolted, my eyes darting to him. That was when I saw him pointing the gun righ

036Sandra.†_†_†_†_†_†FLASHBACK TO ONE WEEK AGO†_†_†_†_†_†“Come," my friend guided me to come into the room.I gritted my teeth nervously, taking a deep breath. She chuckled, gesturing for me to come in.“You'll be fine.” She whispered.I knew I needed this even though I was scared. I knew Claire had connections to the dark world which was why I asked her in the first place to help me.Claire was a mafia, a notorious one. Not a very notorious mafia, but quite notorious. Like a lower ranked mafia.They had a mafia Don who she told me about a lot. He was dangerous from what she told me and he could do whatever he wanted to. He could get what he wanted without having to move an inch. He was a man of his words, a man ruling in his own world, so he wouldn't trespass, he would ensure to drag you into his world and defeat you there but that doesn't mean he couldn't still defeat you in your own world.Even the thought of him was enough to make me quiver.I swallowed, entering the room with

037Lavender."Am I truly not the Father of the baby?" He asked the question that I have been asking myself continuously without being sure of the answer, but my guts told me it was Charlie who owns the child. I just could tell that it was Charlie, I could feel it, but I just had to push the child on Lorenzo anyway.I couldn't have a child without a Father, that would indeed be a nightmare. Even if the contract marriage between Lorenzo and I hadn't ended by then, he would treat the child like trash if he realized that the child wasn't his.And if the contract marriage has ended, there's no way I would have a child without a father so the child was only like a leverage to keep this loveless marriage going until I found the actual love of my life.But why was he asking this out of the blue? He couldn't just ask such a random question especially when he actually didn't catch me having sex with someone, or especially when he knew I was single as hell.It was either he knew the truth, or
