Chapter 235 Sheep Being Fed to the Mouth of a Tiger
Chapter 235 Sheep Being Fed to the Mouth of a Tiger
Every night that Lola return to her villa, she would always check on Nicole's room out of habit. Every time that she entered the room and saw the little quilt still neatly folded, she would realize that her daughter wasn't at home. This gave so much pain.
Harry added her mobile number to the blacklist, so it was so difficult for her to talk to her daughter.
This pissed off Lola.
At noon, she called Harry through the company's landline.
This time, the phone was quickly connected, and there came a deep and decisive voice from Harry. "Tell me!"
"Tell what? What do you want me to tell?" Lola wondered. Lola curled her lip in a discontented manner. "Boss Si, where is my daughter?" She was in a bad mood for not seeing her daughter for several days. This was like a torture for her. Her overall mood had been different lately and it had affected her emotions.
"My daughter is taking a noon nap in the lounge. You don't need to worry about her. What's up, Miss Li?" Harry stared at the door of the lounge and smiled while thinking of the lovely little girl inside.
To make up for the days of his absence, now he took her with him everywhere and every day. These had been the best days of his life. Even when his grandfather and parents wanted to see Nicole, they have to go to Harry's mansion to pay a visit. There was no way that he would let Nicole go to their house.
Lola pondered on Harry's words. He said "My daughter". Yet he just called her "Miss Li". Did he not want to be connected to her anymore?
"Of course, I want to see my daughter!"
"You can meet my daughter in C Country."
They were both emphasizing "my daughter" as if they wanted sole ownership of Nicole.
To C Country? Lola frowned. Why was she having a feeling that she is like a sheep being fed to the mouth of a tiger?
Her daughter was already there in the mouth of the tiger. Would she send herself there, too?
But, how could one obtain tiger cubs without entering the tiger's lair? She wanted that tiger cub, her Nicole.
She hung up the phone, connected the internal line to call the deputy CEO and general manager. Then, she started to hand over the work for the next two days to them.
Finally, she settled everything down before she ended work time in the evening. Lola left for C Country in which she indicated that it was a business trip.
At the exit gates of the airport, Lola was waiting for a taxi to Leroy Manor when a Porsche SUV stopped in front of her.
A young man in a suit got out of the car and asked her respectfully, "Madam, are you Miss Li?"
Lola nodded her head wonderingly, and the young man opened the rear door for her, "Hello, Miss Li, I'll drive you to the manor for Mr. Si."
Oh! So, that man still had a bit of conscience. "Yes, that would be me. Thank you!" She thanked the young man and sat in the backseat.
They arrived at Leroy Manor very soon. The driver escorted her to the gate and then he left.
The security guard opened the gate for Lola at once, "Miss Li, Mr. Si informed us to invite you in as soon as you are here. Please come in."
Lola recognized the security guard, "Your name is ... Tom Liu, right?" She might have asked for his name when she came here last time.
Tom Liu was surprised that Miss Li still remembered him. He had always liked this woman. He replied excitedly, "Yes, I am. I've been here for more than two years."
"Well, thank you. See you later." She smiled to Tom Liu sweetly and slowly made her way to the manor.
Lola didn't realize what kind of shock her smile brought to Tom's face. This made him feel like a fairy just came down to earth. Indeed, she was the most beautiful woman who ever lived!
She entered the castle again, and it still looked like it did before. But this time, there was something more - the laughter of a child.
"Nicole!" She called out her name delightfully when she saw the little girl in her pink outfit.
She was playing with Mrs. Du and the two servants when Nicole was surprised by her mommy's voice. She stood from the carpet and looked at the gate of the mansion.
It was Mommy! She quickly ran to Lola with her two little legs.
Lola also rushed over to her. She held the little girl in her arms tightly, kissing her over and over again.
Nicole kissed Lola on her face for several times, too. She has not seen her Mommy for so many days. She missed her so bad.
"Mommy! I miss you!" Nicole put her head on Lola's shoulder, with her two arms draped around her neck tightly.
Lola's eye turned so emotional all of a sudden. Nicole had never been away from her for so long a time!
"Mommy misses you, too! So here I am."
From the moment Lola got off the car until this time, all her movements were captured in the eyes of a man through some overhead high-definition cameras. Harry was staring at both the mother and daughter without moving his eyes for a moment. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
He looked at the happy Lola, who smiled beautifully even to the security guard. Right now, he just wanted to see her cry a bit.
So he called Joey through the internal line. Soon, Joey knocked at the door and walked in. "Boss!"
Crossing two hands over his chest, Harry mumbled, "Find me a good-looking woman." He could never allow an ugly and dirty person into his mansion!
Joey was surprised that his boss has asked for a woman. This was just the first time that he did this.
"Stop your wild fantasies!" Harry glanced at Joey's face expression, knowing he was busy with his whimsical imagination.
Joey came back to his senses immediately, "OK, Boss!"
In the castle.
Nicole was playing with her limited-edition toys with Lola and Mrs. Du in the living room. Harry would always get what Nicole wants, even though they may be really expensive.
"Nicole, you go home with Mommy. Okay?" Lola tried to ask Nicole. She would cry if she refused.
Nicole nodded her head, and she thought for a while, "Will Daddy come with us?" She liked Daddy so much. He was so nice to her, too!
Lola rolled her eyes. Why did she care for his daddy?
But despite just a short time of being together, she had already developed an intimate connection with her father. What did Harry do for her?
"Daddy won't come. Just you and Mommy will go home." Lola simply refused to let Harry go with them.
But Nicole's lip curled and her eyes turned red. She grumbled, "Mommy, I want to be with Daddy and Mommy. I want to have a complete family." Nicole never wanted to separate with any of them.
Lola didn't know what to say while looking at her daughter's sad little face. Of course, she would like the three of them to stay together, too. But, that man seems like he will not forgive her at all!
Mrs. Du brought a plate of fresh mixed fruits to them. "Lola, Nicole, have some fruits."
"Thanks Mrs. Du!" Lola got the plate from Mrs. Du, thanked her, and fed Nicole with a piece of mango.
Mrs. Du watched them happily. She was very glad to know that Nicole was the child of Harry and Lola!
Although Harry didn't mention it, she could tell that Nicole looked more like Lola.
And from the side, she looked like Harry!
When it was already eight in the evening, Lola bathed her daughter and sang her to sleep.
According to Mrs. Du, Nicole slept with Harry every day. He was so nice to Nicole, as he even kept her beside him when he was sleeping.
Lola felt a little jealous.
But, where should she sleep?
Mrs. Du had already returned to her room. There were several bedrooms next to this one, but no beds were inside any of them. Did this mean that.... Oh, no. She couldn't stand sleeping next to that man.
