Hearing that they have come for Lauren makes Roman's blood go cold immediately. He knows that they are not going to spare her even a little bit. Thank heavens that he told her to go up, and not come out till help comes. "Please, I beg you, this thing you are doing, Lord Snow won't like it very much," he begs. "Why don't you people calm down so that we can go to my office, and we can talk," he says, but the leader won't have any of it. Before Roman can even blink, the leader has ordered two men to go over and beat Roman with the butt of their guns and bats. They beat him till the employees hiding around are moved to the verge of tears. Yet, not one of them dares to take out their phone and call the police. These people in dark clothes didn't hide the fact that they came from the President! Of course the police will not be able to help them in this case, only their boss, Lord Snow... "Where is that bitch?!" The leader shouts. "We are not leaving this place without her!" Roman g

Lauren is in her hospital bed, tight asleep in her bed after the full body checkup from the doctors. Stanley wouldn't have it any other way. Paris has refused to leave her side too, because she can't believe that Lauren almost died right in her presence. She wipes her tears with the back of her hands and looks at Seven. "I'm sorry, I should have done better to protect her." Seven laughs. "Paris, don't bother yourself over that. You are just a tiny woman, what could you have done against men with guns?" He pockets his phone before going to make sure that the drip connected to Lauren's arm is going just fine. Once he is sure, he nods. "Keep an eye on her, okay?" "No problem, sir." "If anyone, except the doctor, tries to force their way into this place, just let me know." He walks towards the door, but Paris holds his arm. "Those bad people that were taken away by the army? What's going to happen to them?" Seven smirks. "Paris, it's better you don't know." ******On another f

115. As soon as the president is able to once again breathe after that abominable smell, he takes out the gun that is kept in his desk, and he shoots the sole survivor soldier right in his head. The poor, frightened man didn't even have the time to register his impending fate before he drops to the ground. Franklin has his fingers pressed against his nose as he watches his brother's victim bleed into the expensive carpets. "I promised that you were going to spare him, brother, "Franklin calmly says. "That was before I knew that he was going to dump severed rotting hands all over my office floor!" President Sampson yells, before throwing the gun carelessly. "Find someone to clean this up, immediately!" He is about to walk out of the office when the telephone starts to ring, and this causes both men to stop. This particular telephone line is not given out of just anyone, except a few that are members of his private circle. "You should pick up, brother." Franklin nods. "I know tha

Suddenly, all the weakness that Lauren has been feeling vanishes from her body. She politely excuses herself, asking Anna to wait for her in the room, but Anna is so worried that she goes down with her. Both of them don't expect for Emerald, Mrs Hudson, and Grandma Hudson to be downstairs, barking instructions at the servants that are lined up in front of them. "Who placed that hideous rug over there?!" "Why haven't the windows been wiped today?!" "Why is that mismatched couch in the corner?! Ugh, it's ugly! Throw it out immediately!" Mrs Hudson orders. The head servant steps forward, hands clasped in front of him. "Sorry, ma'am, we can't throw it out." Emerald snorts pushing her head back. "Are you trying to insult my mother?! Do you want to lose your job?!"The man flinches, but he speaks again, "That's the mistress of this house's favorite chair, ma'am. It will upset her to throw it!" It's truly Lauren's favorite chair. She is not a woman with expensive hobbies, and so she

119. Anna snorts, she won't allow herself to fall for the gimmicks of these story-hungry girls. It's that she can't stand Emerald, but what these girls are trying to do to her has just one word to describe it: ridiculous! "How dare you speak of Lord Snow's fiancee like that?!" She chatises them fiercely. "She is pregnant, and she is also throwing the party for Lord Snow." "Yeah, you are just uninformed because you refused to read our blog! Emerald Hudson has always been attention hungry like this! I don't even know why someone bike Lord Snow will choose to get married to her!" Anna lips appears to be frozen, but she shakes her head. "Stop spreading so much lies! I'll call the security on you if you tell anyone else these nonsense that you have told me!"*****There are over a three hundred guests here, and they look so entertained! Emerald, her mum, and grandmother are so happy! She has upstage the party that Lauren held the other week! "Look like your plan is working, Emerald,
