No Escape From Mr. CEO's Dangerous Love
Chapter 181

Chapter 181

Yes, Harry was planning to get rid of her and marry Yolanda! How was she supposed to react? She justcan't seem to take this all in. She cannot understand. He would certainly choose Yolanda. That cunningserpent!

Lola pushed him away and intended to walk out of the room, only to be caught by his firm grip.

Harry was trying to stop her while she was also trying to run away from him. It was a deadlock.

After a while, Harry let go a bit, careful not to hurt her. Lola took this opportunity and got loose fromhim. She smiled, "Save your words. Go and marry her! You don't have to tell me. We have been in thisscene more than once in our life." Then she walked away without turning back and headed to theelevator.

At the villa of the Newman family.

It was that time of the week when all the members of the Newman Family would gather and havedinner together. All of them except Joseph are present.

Neither Harold nor Angie mentioned the news today. Landon also heard about it, so he planned to talkwith Lola after dinner. Jordan looked at Lola, who was smiling while wiping the chocolate on Nicole'smouth. The sight of them happy together made him swallow his questions.

The doorbell rang. "Who would come to visit at this time? It's already way past dinner time." Angiecuriously looked at the door.

Mrs. White ran to answer the door. "Good evening, sir. May I ask who you are looking for?" The

handsome young man before her was such a delightful sight

because Mrs. White recognized that it was he who went out with Lola and Nicole yesterday!

"Good evening. Would you please tell them that a man by the name of Harry has come to sincerelyapologize to them? Thank you." He politely waited at the door while carrying precious gifts in his hand.

After Mrs. White passed on the message, Angie and Harold looked at each other and then turned toLola, who lowered her head and stopped eating.

Harold sought for Landon's opinion. Landon looked at Lola and when he realized that she was nottaking any stand, he immediately made a decision. "We shall not cold-shoulder our guest. Show himin!"

The moment Harry walked in, Lola got Nicole from her chair and both of them walked upstairs.

Seeing Harry, Nicole turned into the joyful child as she always is whenever he is around. "Uncle!", sheshouted and tried to wriggle herself away from her mother's grip.

Harry then saw Nicole in Lola's arm at the middle of the stairs. He smiled, "Nicole! How are you?"

Then he looked at the others and respectfully asked, "Could you please give us a moment?"

Landon, Harold and Angie looked at each other in sulky silence, nodded and started to finish theirdinner.

Nicole struggled to jump off and Lola had to give in. She put her down and wiped the oil in her lipsagain. Nicole ran to Harry immediately.

"Uncle! Are you here to play with me?" Nicole gave Harry a big hug when he bent down.

Everyone in the Newman Family was speechless. Blood ties did work its magic.

Lola silently walked upstairs. Why not let Nicole spend more time with her father? She gave in. Maybeher father would marry someone else soon and Nicole would never hear from him again.

In the living room.

Mrs. White was clearing away the plates while Jordan left for the study right after having a moment ortwo with Harry.

Landon, Harold and Angie were sitting on the couch opposite to Harry, who still has Nicole in his arms.

"Mrs. White, take Nicole to Lola please!" Landon politely asked. Mrs. White quickly wiped her handsand took Nicole away.

Harry stood and bowed to them in a very polite and respectful manner.

Harold and Angie did not expect this and they felt slightly uneasy, as this powerful young man was sohumble to them.

It was a bit too much!

"I came here today to make an apology to you. Though it was not my intention, Lola has sufferedhumiliation and shame because of me. As much as I want to be with her and Nicole, I can't promise hera future that is safe for all of us, especially her...I'm deeply sorry for all the trouble I caused. Sorry!"

...

Lola had no idea that Harry already left. When Angie walked in, she was reading Nicole a story book.

Angie came in with some gifts

from Harry.

"We didn't want his gifts but he strongly insisted. Lola, why don't you keep them?" Angie placed thebags on her desk.

Lola didn't even bother to take a look at these gifts. "Mother, I'm so sorry about what happenedyesterday."

She is not a good daughter. At this age, she still brought shame to her parents.

Angie shook her head. "It's fine. Nobody dared to gossip in the army. I understand that we all makemistakes. After all, we are not perfect." She gently held Lola's hand.

Lola smiled. "That's good. I am blessed to have you, mother. If he leaves Ascea, that would be great. Ifhe doesn't, I'll just quit my job."

She didn't know what to do. It would be so helpless if she has to witness their marriage.

She would hate herself for not being able to stop it!

Angie looked at Lola and put a hand on her shoulder. "Lola, just do whatever you want. You are morethan justified to pursue the one you love. Those who judge you do not know you at all. Don't worry!"

Leaning against her mother's shoulder, Lola decided to replace a way out no matter what.

She was not the other woman! She did not deserve all these humiliations while Yolanda enjoyedprotection from the painful accusations...

The day after that, Harry made his first official announcement regarding the rumor.

He claimed on the internet that Lola and he were merely friends. He went to the amusement park witha friend's daughter. That was it. Despite all these rumors, he will be going back to Uthana to marryYolanda. Lola has displayed impressive capability as a deputy CEO, so she would take over thecompany as the provisional CEO.

...

Hearing about this, Lola violently swept away all the folders and papers on the desk. Everything swirledand fell down, creating a loud thump.

Who cared about the position of a provisional CEO?

She came here for one and only purpose -- Harry!

A friend? He threw away everything that they have just for the sake of Yolanda!

This one stings. She could even physically feel the pain of her heart. With her face buried in the desk,she hopelessly cried her heart out.

What should she do? What can she do?

Every single day, she couldn't help but recall how Yolanda murdered her child.

She couldn't allow this to happen! She couldn't bear to see them get married! She couldn't let Harry bewith the wrong woman for the rest of his life...Her right hand with her nails painted in scarlet, grippedthe pen she was holding.

It was driving her crazy...

"... If we didn't meet that day, would I be less confused right now? If we didn't meet..." The ringtone sherecently set rang. She didn't move. Instead, she got the phone

and looked at the screen through the transparent desk. It was Zoe's call. Her voice was listless. "Hello."

Zoe called her immediately after seeing the announcement Harry just made. He knew how much Lolaloved Harry. That must hurt! So he was not surprised to hear Lola's sorrowful cries from the phone.

"Lola, I just read the news..." Zoe could not say anything more. He didn't know how to make her feelbetter.

Lola forced a bitter smile. Now the world knew that she was merely a friend, and a subordinate to

Harry.

The door opened slowly, but Lola was not aware. She was still bending over the desk. "I've read it too.The past is gone, Zoe. It's all over. I have to start all over again."
