Leah and Adrian held their breath as Jerome's people walked quickly on the ground around them, they shouted at each other and said that Leah and Adrian couldn't be far away.
As the voices of the people began to fade, Leah's sense of smell start to work, she began to be able to smell the stench of horse dung piercing her nose. She winced at the smell. In front of her, Adrian's shoulders shook with laughter, a contagious laugh, that made Leah laugh too.
"I can't believe we can laugh amidst all this tension!" whispered Leah, shaking her head a few times. Adrian smiled, "At least there are still things that can make us happy, it seems they are a bit far from here," Adrian tiptoed, peeking from the sidelines of the board filled with horse dung.
"It's safe!" With difficulty, Adrian slides the board open. He stepped and climbed up, when he reached the top, he reached out to help Leah up. The surroundings were quite
A knock on the door surprised Leah that was about to close her eyes, "Come in!" shouted Leah from over the bed. Soon the door opened and Adrian appeared there. "Hi," said Adrian somewhat sounded nervous. He stepped closer to Leah. Leah straightened herself, she felt a bit awkward because she had closed the door so loud earlier. "What is wrong?" asked Leah, trying to act as if nothing had happened. For some reason, she felt a bit shy to admit her jealousy. She felt unworthy... Adrian stood on the edge of Leah's bed, "Umm, are you mad at me?" asked Adrian his hand reached out to hold Leah's hand, but Leah hid it under the blanket. Leah shook her head, "Not at all, why do you ask me that question?" asked Leah, pretending. "About the door..." Adrian's hand moved to point to the dark brown bedroom door. “Ohhh, I'm sorry I ac
"What do you mean?" Leah asked confused. Adrian took Leah's hand and held it gently. "I want you to announce to the world what Jerome has done to you, Jerome is a public figure, the public will criticize his actions and it will affect his company," Adrian said carefully, not wanting to surprise Leah. But Leah was really surprised, she was silent for a long time while looking at Adrian with widened eyes. Will she be ready to tell all the bad things that happened to her to the world?"Will they believe me?" whispered Leah, her hand reaching for the coffee cup and taking a quick gulp. "They will, you can show them the photos you took shortly after Jerome hurt you," Adrian tried to reassure Leah. "At the same time, we will report Jerome with the evidence that we have," added Adrian.Leah took a deep breath, putting down the cof
"What's up Ad? Did something happen?" asked Leah who was surprised at Adrian's reaction after receiving a call from his mother. "Mia was kidnapped!" replied Adrian, his hands busy picking up his clothes that were scattered on the floor one by one and then wearing them at lightning speed.Leah stood her body with a tense face, "Kidnapped?"Leah's mind went straight to Jerome, what if it turned out that Jerome kidnapped Mia, didn't that mean Leah was the cause of all this chaos."Leah, I have to get to Bethesda, you can stay here for a while, I'll be right back I promise," said Adrian, he puts his black credit card on the nightstand, "Use my card if you want to buy something, I'll send a bodyguard to look after you, until the bodyguard comes, don't come out of the hotel room. I'm leaving!" Adrian quickly passed from the room with a panicked face, he doesn't even have time to listen when Leah said that she wanted to help
After she paid the bill, Leah followed Yuri to the staff room. She changed her clothes with the other clothes that were purchased by Yuri earlier, Leah also wore a wig to trick anyone who might be following her. Moments later, Leah was ready in black leather pants, a matching turtle neck top, and a fairly bright mahogany red wig. She also wore large round glasses, to disguise her face."The cellphone and everything you ordered is in here," Yuri held out a small black leather backpack to Leah. Leah hurriedly wore the backpack, she patted Yuri's shoulder warmly, "Thank you very much, Yuri, if anyone is looking for me, just answer that you didn’t know anything I will not forget your kindness!" exclaimed Leah then rushed past from the staff room to the hallway that will take her out of the hotel building to the employee
As Leah stepped into the Penthouse, she felt like a rock weighing down her footsteps. It was like a hell for Leah, it was the last place she wanted to visit in the world.Jerome snatched Leah's handbag and threw it onto the floor, Leah stood still, did not comment. She counted in her heart, didn’t know at what count Jerome would begin to torture her. Leah's outstretched hand held a black hairpin pinned to her hair, ensuring it was heading in the right direction. Leah stood still near the dining table chair, her fist clenched behind her back. "Sit down!" snapped Jerome, his eyes staring at Leah coldly and sharply. Leah didn't argue, she pulled up a dining chair and sat on it with her back straight. Leah's eyes never once turned away from Jerome's face, hatred filled her chest space.
Jerome put his clothes back on with anger, "Don't make a sound!" hissed him while covering Leah's mouth with duct tape. Leah closed her eyes, hoping the visitors who came were the ones she expected. She prayed in her heart, hoping this time God would release her from a terrible creature like Jerome.Leah counted silently in her head, a few minutes later, a faint scream was heard from a distance. Shortly afterward, the door of the torture chamber was wide open and several people went inside."Leah!" shouted Adrian as he ran towards Leah. Frantically he looked for a cloth to cover Leah's half-naked body. Behind Adrian, several men in police uniforms appear to be taking pictures of every corner of the room and checking the presence of surveillance cameras, although Leah has prepared a surveillance camera that she pinned on the clamp of her black hair."All is good Leah, all is good..." Adrian whispers, his hands untied Leah's han
"I'll leave you two," said Adrian, he adjusted Leah's blanket and left the room. Chloe nodded her head, thanking Adrian for giving her the space to talk to Leah."I'm sorry Leah, Jerome has promised me not to beat you again, that's why I finally accepted the offer," said Chloe breaking the silence between them. Leah didn't say anything, she didn't know why Chloe had suddenly come and apologized after what she had done to Leah. "I know you must be very disappointed in me, but it wasn’t only me! Caitlin and Jason, they also accepted Jerome's offer," Chloe mumbled hoping to say something like that would make Leah understand the situation."I thought so," Leah said quietly, her jaw still aching. Chloe touched Leah's hand, "You know how t
“Good morning gorgeous!” said Adrian when he saw Leah who had just woken up from her sleep. Leah smiled broadly, "Good morning handsome," replied Leah. She propped her head, watching Adrian who was busy drying his hair with a towel. "Why are you showering so early?" asked Leah curiously. Adrian stopped his hand, then threw himself on the edge of the bed. He reached out his hand to gently stroke Leah's hair, "Today we have a press conference agenda, did you forget about it?" asked Adrian softly, he didn't want to make Leah tense and nervous. Leah's eyes widened, she bit her lip and hurried to her feet. "Oh, my God! I totally forgot! I will prepare myself now! Why didn't you wake me up!" cried Leah frantically. Adrian chuckled, "Take it easy, the press conference is still three hours away, take your time," said Adrian, winking at Leah.
