Chapter 19

Estella was too kind to book a luxurious hotel room for Theoden Gray. Even though they had no time. He had escaped the prison all thanks to his girlfriend Estella. She had recently become a lawyer.

"She's such a goddess." He spoke a he goes through his cupboard, clothes hung as per his style.

He was such a boyfriend to leave her alone to face the danger on her own.

It was midnight when he drifted to sleep in the soft and comfy mattress, sheets draped over him.

In the morning the sun shone with full enthusiasm waking Theoden from his sleep.

He was getting dressed to go to the company when he called Lilly. Lilly and Theoden became friends when last year he came to study in Beijing from Beijing Technology and Business university to complete his BS.

"Hello." She received the call.

"Hi, Lilly."

"Oh my god, Theoden are you in China."

"Yes, I am. Talk to you later just drive to the hotel, for now, I'm sending you the address."

"Ok. Bye." she ended the call.

"Hi, how are you." He asked as he walked to Lilly.

"All decent, you see."

"Don't get too excited cause from now on I'm gonna boss around."

"As you wish your Highness." She joked around.

Later in the nighttime when Theoden was getting ready for bed he had a call from an un known number.

"Hello."

"I see you left your girlfriend all alone to be tortured by us."

"Who are you?" Theoden inquired.

"Why are you so eager to know my identity." The person spoke."the deal is to hand over your business to us or lose Estella.

"You to think that I love her. There's no way for that she was just a pawn for me to get out of the prison."

"Do what you feel is good." Saying this he declined the call.

He tried to call her several times but she just didn't receive the call instead of a message posted up.

She can't receive your ring because I'm in between.

"What the fuck." He cursed.

He couldn't sleep at night of what's been happening lately.

Just another day when Theoden was in his office doing some file work for his new project when the telephone rang.

" sir there's.."

"Leave it don't tell him I want to give him a surprise." A lady spoke cutting her out. Theoden was sure that voice belonged to Estella.

"Let her in," Theoden told the lady at reception.

"Yes."

"Sure, ma'am. Just take right from here." She pointed in the direction.

Estella walked into his room Theoden was standing in the middle of the room as he examined the file. Just a few inches away she stopped as she grabbed his tie and pulled him in. His lips crashed onto hers depening into a kiss.

"Excuse me lady who are you?" He asked pulling away.

"Are you sure you don't know me?" She demanded an answer.

"No."

"Then I'll leave." Probably waiting for Theo to stop her.

"Theo." She stopped in the mid. Ok, that name was familiar. Theo's heart did a little happy dance cause he could not explain how happy he was hearing her call him Theo.

"How can you say this don't you remember a week ago you shoot your uncle, in his eyes stomach and then his chest to take revenge for your mother and your brother and also what he did to me then you went to jail and I helped you escape." She spoke in one breath.

"Miss these things only happens in movies, not in real life. Now are you gonna take you to leave or should I call the receptionist to Scout you out?"

Just when she was about to leave a lady walked in. She was wearing a mini skirt with a white split sleeve.

Estella wanted to puke on how short that skirt was.

Whoever the lady was walked to Theoden hugging him as she kissed him on the cheek.

Theoden could tell she was burning crisp from jealousy but he had to continue the act as he slipped his arm around Lilly's waist.

"You," Estella shouted.
