Chapter 319

"All right, I see. Have a good time with mommy. Daddy will handle this issue." With these words, Harryended the call with Nicole. He took out another cigarette and inhaled the smoke as he fell into his deepthoughts.

Lola planned to marry Thomas? He wouldn't just sit and let it happen!

He would never ever allow her to marry another man!

He quickly made a phone call to Thomas to inform him that he was in possession of some nastyevidence and he could easily use them against Lola. He threatened him so he wouldn't continue withthe wedding.

Thomas challenged him with a scornful laugh. "Harry, well played! You are the president of the SLGroup. Don't you forget that. Why would you lower your standard and pull such lousy and mean trick?"

Harry laughed back. He would do anything to get Lola back. He didn't even care about his image.

"If you ignore my warnings and insist on marrying her, then I have to destroy her. You know I can dothat, Thomas."

Thomas said nothing but simply hung up the call.

Harry smirked as he dialed Joey's number. He gave a short and straightforward order to his assistant:"Send someone to watch over Thomas. If anything happens, inform me immediately." He was confidentthat Thomas had some weak points. Everyone has weaknesses.

Everyone did. Just like himself, Lola and Nicole were his weaknesses.

Meanwhile, Lola waited on Thomas for days after Nicole has gone back to his father. Thomas nevershowed up to meet her family.

Lola was distressed so she bought a direct flight to Zacrye. She planned to talk to Thomas about it.

She went straight from the airport to Thomas' apartment only to replace out that he was not at home.

She unlocked the door through her own fingerprints. Thomas has set it up for her so she could alwaysenter the room. She thought it would be nice to wait for him in his apartment.

The apartment was tidy. Someone had cleaned it carefully. She pushed her old bedroom door open.Everything still looked the same.

Lola thought for a moment and decided to call Thomas.

Thomas was on his way to another apartment of his when he received her call. After knowing that shewas now here in Zacrye, he turned the car around and drove directly to her.

He hadn't seen her for a long time. Apart from the time he was caught up in busy work, she wasconstantly on his mind. He never thought that his emotions invested a lot on Lola.

The moment he stepped into the apartment, she greeted him with a big lovely smile. This made himfeel at home. Thomas walked up towards her and hugged her with all his heart and soul.

Lola was overwhelmed by his passion. Without giving her further room to think nor talk, he lowered hishead and sealed her soft red lips with a passionate kiss.

She was about to push him away when he cradled her up and carried her into the bedroom. She wasstill shy about doing this...

Lying next to her, he sweetly whispered in her ears, "Lola, I missed you so much." With these words, heembraced her tightly into his chest.

Despite this, Lola decisively stopped his move at the last minute.

Thomas moaned in disappointment as he let her off. With closed eyes, he laid next to her andwondered. He laid his hand on her waist and asked earnestly, "Lola, do you really want to marry me?"

Lola paused. Then she nodded firmly, "Yes. I was waiting for you to meet my family and discuss thewedding. You never came. I'm disappointed, Thomas." They would have plenty of intimacy time afterthe wedding! He should have been more patient!

Thomas carefully observed her face and said, "Does Harry have something that he could use againstyou? Tell me honestly, Lola."

Lola was utterly shocked at his words. She stared at him in horror. How did he replace out?

Did Harry say something to him? No wonder she waited in vain in Ascea and Thomas never came forher. Harry must have done something to mess things up!

This bitter thought made Lola bite her lips. She felt she was imprisoned by Harry.

"Thomas... I am sorry but I am in his hands. Maybe.... We should already break up... I don't want tocause you complications and troubles." She had all the intention to settle down with him but Harrywould just not allow it to happen. She should have seen this coming.

Thomas hugged her tightly in his arms. Her words hurt him so much that he wanted to kill Harry in thenastiest way possible! "Whatever evidence he has, as long as you do not mind... I... don't mind either. "

Lola bitterly smiled at his promise. But how could she not care about what Harry has?

If Harry revealed the incident to the public, she would feel so ashamed that she would probably thinkabout taking her own life again.

"There is nothing we can do at the moment. Just wait and see how it goes." She was counting on thefact that as time went by, Harry would lose interest in her and leave her alone.

Thomas raised up his head and looked at her directly in the eyes, "Lola, I wish you can be with me,both emotionally and physically. I really care for you." He was sure that Harry would back off when Lolawould become his woman for real. He wished Harry was still a respectful human being.

Lola knew well what he was implying about. But she still shook her head.

Having sex with Thomas would only make Harry even angrier. She wanted to be with Thomas withoutcausing a bigger scene. She wanted a peaceful and comfortable life.

Thomas was so irritated at the situation. He was a high ranking official. He was sure he could replace away to deal with Harry, a mere business man!

The night got deeper. They fell asleep while hugging each other. They both had something heavy ontheir minds.

The sharp ring tone of Lola's phone suddenly broke the silence of the darkness. She instantly had abad feeling.

She picked up the phone. It didn't surprise her at all. It was Harry...

She stood by the bed, staring at the phone screen. Then she looked up and saw Thomas wake up aswell.

After he gave her an approving nod, she walked to the balcony with the phone.

"Lola, where are you? I miss you." A deep and sweet male voice spoke from the phone.

Lola silently sighed as she looked up at the stars above her head. "What do you want?"

She remembered how he made her beg for her coffee shop business.

What now? Did he want her to beg for his mercy again? So that he would leave her and Thomas inpeace.

"I want to see you." He spit it out clear and loud. He didn't have to go around the bush with this.

Lola sneered. "Boss Lewis, you are renowned for your romance and good looks. You're alwayssurrounded by beautiful women. Why would you care to see a murderer like me? Don't you replace it

ridiculous?" Her voice was ice cold, without any affection at all.

Then he sincerely apologized, "I was wrong. I misjudged you." He said in a soft voice.

She felt even worse at him saying sorry "Too late for your apology! Nothing can make up for the hurtand shame that you caused me. Do you remember how you tortured me? Harry, I was way too kind toyou. You always get what you want with me. Do you think that I was some kind of a push-over?"

She sobbed as the memories haunted her. They haunted her every night.

"I will do my best to make up to you. Please come back to me, okay? Please forgive me." His voicewas so sweet and alluring whenever he was gentle to her. But she had enough of it.

She snapped in disgust. "No! I am going back to sleep with my fiancé now. Mr. Lewis, stop disturbingme on such a beautiful night!"

When she was about to end the call, she heard a sharp yelp from him, "You are in Zacrye?!"

She said nothing to him.

"Lola, time to rest. Just hang up the call." Thomas' voice was heard over the phone, piercing throughthe uncomfortable silence like a sharp knife.

Harry was instantly awakened. He glared outside the window to the dark sky. His fists were clenching.

"Lola, if you dare do anything with him, I will hunt him down and slaughter him! Mark my words!" Hisvoice was so loud that even Thomas heard his dangerous threat.

"Who are you to decide what I can do and what I can't?!" What kind of threat was that?

A wicked smile spread across Harry's face as he spoke slowly, word by word, "Lola, don't you everforget the time when I tied your hands up with your scarf and pressed you against the balcony..." Sheshould know her place and position better.

"Shut up, you evil being!" Lola screamed at the top of her lungs as she tried to stop him from talkingany further.

"Then be nice to me. Go to a hotel and I will pick you up tomorrow morning." He played andmanipulated her with his enticing voice.

Just then, Thomas took the phone over as he embraced Lola tightly with his arms. With a mockingtone, he said, "Mr. Lewis, are you out of your mind? Every property I own also belongs to my fiancé.Why do we have to bother to go to a hotel? The ambiance in our home is so much sweeter!"
