Chapter 114: CHAPTER 114
I LEFT THE SPA WITH A SMILE ON MY FACE. I was walking down the lane to my car carrying all these bags with me, smiling all the way. Ciara and Caoimhe were extraordinary friends. I couldn't believe they took me out even after the whole drama that happened with the media. I had been hiding for a very long time but these two became my guardian angels and helped me see the light. I had the most fun I've ever had in a longtime. I missed my life and these two restored it. I owed them big.
It was unfortunate that I had to meet Jeannine at the mall. She was one of those eople who darken the mood once they arrive. Sort of like a dark cloud of pain and torment.
Who on earth gave birth to her? And after her shopping, she made a very disturbing phone call.
'I'll bring her down with me and then you can make your move.....don't worry. I'll do it just right. I'll be taking the next flight to Tokyo tonight. The wedding's over....'
Seems like they were planning on kidnapping someone. And the other party would make a move. What move?? Who's wedding was she even talking about?
Anywho, who am I to concern myself with matters that do not concern me. I had had enough of Jeannine and didn't want even a spec of her around me.
I had my own issues to handle. A serial psychopath was on the loose constantly threatening to kill me if I don't leave Adam. That was big enough for my attention unlike a pestering pest like Jeannine. Aaron already told me to leave the matter in his hands and he'll deal with her so I did.
I was going to kill her myself for setting me up with that old pig of a man but I had my dignity unlike her hence I'll spare her my comeback.
I arrived at the parking lot and removed my dark glasses so I could see.
It was well lit in here but the silence was intimidating.
Adam specifically asked me to take him along and I forgot to. Am sure he won't be mad at me if I arrived on time.
I took out my phone and decided to give him a call but it went straight to voicemail.
It's Adam. Please leave your message.
That was new. He always picked my calls. Maybe he was in the shower or something.
I looked at my phone but I had full network coverage. I just shrugged and tossed it in my clutch, opening my trunk the next minute, about to arrange my bags in it.
We did quite some shopping. I won't be coming out for the next few weeks, I grinned and wrang my shirt to my elbows.
I started placing them one by one when suddenly a sleek black Lamborghini arrived. I could hear the hot tires burn against the shinny sparkling floor followed by a burning fume. I waved a hand in front of my face and stared at the car.
What kind of driving was that? And, instead of reverse parking as adjourned by the parking lot rules, the car was parked in sideways. The glasses were tinted but I could still see through. Wearing my specs has always been a very good training.
There was a man in the driver's seat who resembled the Hulk. He was huge. He was in a suit and had his window down.
Another reclined in the back seat and they seemed to be waiting for something.
I turned back to what I was doing and decided to get out of here as soon as possible. The sooner the better. I quickly tossed my bags in the trunk and smashed it down, having it locked. I walked to the driver's seat and was about to start the car when someone knocked on the window.
I jerked in fright and saw it was just a courier man. I rolled down my window while maintaining distance so that if he was to do anything to me, he wouldn't get the chance.
"Ma'am....you forgot this bag on the reception..." He said. That was weird. I never forget anything.
And am sure I took all the bags that I had bought. I took a closer look at the bag and realised I never bought it. Zebra print wasn't me. Leopard was me. And this just proved that this bag wasn't mine.
"Am sorry but I don't think I bought that....I don't remember buying that...." I quickly dismissed him and rolled my window back up but he grabbed it pushing it back down. A chill spread from my heart to my extremities and made me scared. What exactly was going on here? Was this man really a courier???
"At least just check the contents. Maybe it's something you took but simply can't remember. Celebrities buy a lot of things at once. It might have slipped your mind...." He insisted. I decided to do it and get it over with.
I knew what I was doing was wrong but this man proved to be dangerous and I had to leave before he did anything to me.
I received the bag from him and the moment I opened it, a gush of power spread all over my face and I couldn't see.
"You asshole!!" I screamed and immediately rolled my window up and locked the door. I turned the car on and drove my way out but accidentally hit a pillar. Oh yes! I couldn't see!!
My heart raced knowing what this man would do. I used my hands to quickly clear my eyes when a loud thud came through my window spreading the pieces all over me. I jumped to the passenger's seat but there was someone else too.
They knocked down the windows and one of them managed to grab me.
He pulled me out of the car but I kicked his groin and disempowered him. I ran to the car park's gate but his friend wrestled me from behind. My nose and mouth was smothered with a cloth that was giving out a very pungent smell and I was slowly lapsing into unconsciousness. Everything started getting blurred and fuzzy the more I inhaled whatever they had on the cloth. I was getting weak but I knew I shouldn't go with these men. Where is the security??
Then I remembered the sleek Lamborghini. Maybe they could help me.
I kicked this man hard but he dodged my kick and grabbed my leg instead. I used the other to press hard on his toes and he left me.
My vision was blurred and I couldn't see anything without a doubt. I became dizzy and fell to my knees. I told myself I had to keep moving if I was to escape this.
I crawled my way to the Lamborghini and saw it at a distance.
Too weak to even scream for help, I lied there helpless hoping they'd rush to my aid.
"Ma'am.... Ma'am....are you alright???" The soft voice of a man asked. "Do you know her" he asked.
"Yes Boss. She's Eleanor De La Rue..." Someone replied.
They must be the men from the Lamborghini.
I coughed and found the strength to open my eyes.
"Please sir....would you be so kind? Help me....those men...those men....attacked me.....!!" I stammered and tried to catch my breath.
"Don't worry ma'am...am here to save you....." He said and carried me to the car. He sat me next to him and had my head on his shoulder .
I felt relieved knowing that someone with dignity still existed in this place. I was safe.
I took a deep breath and closed my eyes to rest.
"Let's go...." He instructed his driver who spared no minute and drove off instantly.
No sooner did we leave than when he received a phone call. He placed it on the ear where my head was lying against his shoulder, hence I could hear every thing.
"Was the job done?" Someone asked. I wasn't disturbed at first as I thought they were talking about work.
"Yes sir....it's done. She's with me ....." He replied and my heart immediately sank to my feet.
"Good job. Bring her to the holiday Villa ASAP....." he man on the other line demanded.
"Rodger that" he hang up the call. I moved away from him fear registered on my face. He looked at me and he seemed mused by his act. He was the devil.
"You demon from hell!!!" I screamed. I tried to open the door only to find it locked. I raised my hand to hit him but suddenly my body became weak.
"You didn't think I was helping you, did you?" He laughed before covering my mouth and nose yet again in another handkerchief.
This time, I couldn't fight it. My strength had been weakened to zero and I wouldn't even raise a finger. In what felt like a flash, everything turned black.
