My Best Friend's Father: The Man I Shouldn't Want Chapter 171
Lucas's POV.The alarm on my phone went off at exactly 9:05 p.m. I was sitting on the edge of the bed, going through the security reports from earlier that day.Laura was already asleep, or at least I thought she was. She shifted beneath the blanket when the sound came from my phone. I picked it up.**SECURITY ALERT — MEDICAL EMERGENCY AT FRONT GATE.**For a second, I didn't move. I was displeased.Then I opened the security application.The camera feed showed the road outside the property.A vehicle had stopped near the gate.Its hazard lights were flashing.Two people were standing beside it.One appeared to be holding someone.I zoomed in.The image wasn't clear enough.I reached for my shirt.Laura opened her eyes.“What happened?”“Nothing.”She pushed herself up.“You said that too quickly.”I looked at her.“There may be an emergency at the gate.”She immediately threw the blanket aside.“What kind?”“I don't know yet.”“I'll come.”“No.”She stopped.“Lucas.”“Stay here.”Her

Victor's POV.I watched the photograph load on my phone. There they were.Lucas, Laura, and Zara. The three perfect duo family, they were all smiling together. The picture had been taken through a long-range camera from across the road.I zoomed in to see Laura's hand rested over her stomach.Lucas stood close enough to touch her. Zara was laughing.They looked comfortable and safe with each other.That was the part I wanted to change.I placed the phone on the table.Vanessa sat opposite me.She had been staring at the picture for nearly a minute.“You shouldn't have done that.”I looked at her.“Done what?”“Taken their picture.”“Why?”“You know why.”I leaned back.“You're worried about Zara.”“She doesn't deserve this.”“Neither does Lucas?”Her eyes narrowed.“Don't twist my words.”“I'm not twisting anything.”I picked up the phone again.“You wanted Lucas to suffer.”“I did.”“You wanted him to understand what it felt like to lose control.”“Yes.”“Then what's the problem?”Sh

Zara's POV.I had changed my clothes four times. The first dress was too tight around my waist.The second made me look like I was going to church. The third was actually nice, but I hated the sleeves, the fourth was still hanging on my body when I looked at myself in the mirror and sighed.“I don't even know why I'm stressing.”I turned sideways.The dress looked fine.Maybe more than fine.I just wasn't used to dressing up for family pictures.Family pictures.The words still felt strange sometimes.I reached for my earrings and put them on.My phone buzzed on the bed.I looked at the screen.**Laura:** Are you ready?I smiled.**Me:** Yes.Three dots appeared.**Laura:** You've said that three times.I laughed.**Me:** I'm actually ready now.**Laura:** Come downstairs before your father starts looking for you.I rolled my eyes.That sounded exactly like something Lucas would do.I slipped my phone into my purse and left the room.The moment I reached the staircase, I heard him.“Z

Victor's POV“You're the one who brought emotions into this.”“I only wanted Lucas to suffer.”“And he will.”“He's already changed.”“How?”“He barely leaves the house. He's doubled security. He's watching everyone.”“Exactly.”“Fear is making him predictable.” I said, standing up. Vanessa turned back to me.“What do you mean?”“He's protecting the obvious doors.”I walked to the table.A map of the property was spread across it.I placed my finger on the front gate.“Guarded.”Then the side entrance.“Guarded.”The rear entrance.“Guarded.”I moved my finger toward the garage.“Watched.”Vanessa stared at the map.“And?”“And Lucas thinks the danger is outside.”I looked at her.“That is the mistake.”She didn't answer.I picked up another photograph.It was the new security guard.The one with the debt.His name was Daniel.Daniel had a wife.Two children.A hospital bill that had grown faster than his salary.And a debt he had borrowed from the wrong person.He had tried to hide i

Zara’s POV.I stood in front of the mirror for almost ten minutes before I finally decided I hated the dress. It wasn't ugly, it was actually pretty The pale cream color looked good against my skin, and the little flowers around the neckline were cute. But the dress made me look like someone else's idea of me.I pulled at the waist, it was too loose and then I turned sideways.“You're not going anywhere.”I looked at my reflection.“Exactly.”I pulled the dress over my head and threw it onto the bed. My phone vibrated with a message from Laura. I took a glance at it.“Are you ready?”“Almost” I replied, sending my message to her as the three dots appeared immediately.“That's what you said twenty minutes ago.”“I'm coming.” I said, while laughing.I grabbed my phone and headed downstairs. The house was unusually busy, there were people moving in and out of the dining room, security speaking quietly near the entrance, and one of the staff carrying flowers through the hallway. Then I s

Laura's POV.My stomach had started feeling heavy. It wasn't painful but just heavy, few months had passed by though.Every movement seemed to remind me that there were two little people growing inside me. Sometimes I still had to stop and let that sink inside of my head.I stood in front of the bathroom mirror that morning with my nightdress pushed above my stomach. The bump had changed again, it was growing bigger by each passing day.I placed both of my hands beneath it as I spoke up.“Good morning.”A small movement answered me and I laughed quietly.“You're awake already?”Another kick came from somewhere on the left.I rubbed the spot.“You too?”The bathroom door opened.Lucas walked in.He was already dressed.His shirt sleeves were rolled to his elbows, and his hair looked like he'd run his hands through it too many times.He stopped when he saw me.“You're supposed to be resting.”I lowered my nightdress.“I just woke up.”“You should have called me.”“To help me stand?”“Ye

Laura's POV.I didn't say a word to Lucas. Because if I opened my mouth, I wasn't sure of what would come out of it. If it were truth or lies, or something in between that could ruin everything.I just stood there, holding the file like it was the only thing that could keep me on the right track.L

Lucas's POV.Weeks passed, but that night refused to loosen its grip on me. It refused to stay where it belonged.That night would always stay in the quiet moments that I had to myself. In the spaces between my meetings and in the way my body reacted before my mind could stop it. I had slept with

Laura's POV.I woke up suddenly, my body jerking like I had fallen from somewhere high.For a few seconds, I just laid there, staring at the ceiling. My heart raced for no clear reason, the room felt unfamiliar to me but not enough to scare me, yet my body felt wrong.It felt heavy and used. I felt

Laura's pov.The alcohol burned in my veins. It was louder than my thoughts. I knew this wasn't me. Not the sober me. Not the careful girl who over thought everything and apologized too much. But the alcohol didn't care about who I usually was. It peeled me open and let something reckless breathe.
