Semua Bab Love At Last: Billionaire's Contracted Bride: Bab 111 - Bab 120

(Frederick's POV)"Those brats of yours won't stop babbling and asking questions," Anna complained immediately after she stepped into the room, her face etched with disdain and bitterness.I could not tell if she was pissed that the girls were mine or if she was pissed because they were Kendall's."Just let them be. They are kids, and you know kids always ask questions," I replied, dropping the leather bag I held to the floor and walking toward her, trying to soothe her anger."Fine!! You deal with them," she spat as she shrugged off my hand, which I placed on her shoulder. "I need a shower.""What's with the…"I stopped talking when she got into the bathroom and slammed the door behind her.After I unpacked some of the luggage, I decided to go see the girls in the room they were kept in.As I approached the door, I cautiously opened and entered the room. Immediately, the kids noticed me and began to move back in fear."Who are you and where's our mummy?" One of the girls asked her ex

(Stephen's POV)"Good morning Sir, it's good to see you." My secretary greeted me, her face beaming with a smile as she followed me to my office."How have things been here?" I asked firmly, seeing no need for any exciting reunion talk."Ehhh… fine, sir," she mumbled, straightening herself, and acting more officially."Good, call the accountant. Tell her to see me in my office now." I ordered, my voice low but firm as I picked up a brown file from my table."What are these?" I asked as I tried skimming through the documents."Oh! That's the contract for the partnership with the Italian investors. It came in two days ago.""Okay, I will attend to it. Are there any other documents that I need to go through?""No sir," she replied."That would be all. Put a call to the accountant now."A few minutes after the secretary left, the accountant walked into the office. As she entered my office, a wave of anticipation hung in the air.Sarah, the accountant who was usually composed, looked visib

(Kendall's POV)"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. This is your captain speaking. We have successfully reached our destination and are preparing for landing..." The pilot's voice sounded through the intercom, waking me up from sleep.In a few minutes, the sound of seatbelts unfastening and passengers shuffling in their seats filled the cabin as the plane descended."Finally, we made it!" one of the passengers sitting behind us exclaimed as he stretched himself. "Yeah, I can't wait to stretch my legs and get off this plane," the lady who sat beside him replied, her face covered in a soft smile.As the plane came to a stop and taxis to the gate, the flight attendants stood by the cabin doors, ready to assist with disembarkation."Ladies and gentlemen, we have arrived at our destination. Please remain seated with your seatbelts fastened until the captain turns off the seatbelt..!" One of the flight attendants let out cheerfully, her voice high-pitched.As the seatbelt sign went off, S

(Stephen's POV)I rushed to Kendall, my heart pounding as I saw her crumpling to the ground with a jolt of shock and pain etched on her face. My world stopped as I dropped to my knees beside her and my hands trembling quavered. I took her into my arms, trying to assess the extent of her deep injuries."Somebody call an ambulance, please!" I screamed, my voice cracking with desperation but Jeff was out of sight. Guessed he ran after the murderers."The…the girls, Stephen," she mewled, as she writhed in pain. "Please keep them safe.""I'm sorry, Kendall. We will both keep them safe, stay with me Ken, please stay with me," I bawled, moving the strand of hair that covered her face.I so much wanted to kiss away whatever pain she felt."I'm sorry, Stephen," she struggled to utter after some minutes of silence as she clutched to her lower abdomen."Ken…""Shit!!! Ken!!!!! Don't!" I screamed, lifting her to my abdomen. "Where's the damn ambulance?"Within what felt like both an eternity and

(Frederick's POV)Seated in the cold, sterile interrogation room alone. I gazed at nowhere with my cuffed hands placed on the center table. A policeman brought me here some minutes ago, leaving me here alone with my thoughts.How could I get myself out of here? Where was Anna too? Would I be able to go scot-free when I shot Kendall? Did she even survive it? Oh God!Different questions raced through my mind as I imagined what would happen to me now that I'd been arrested. If only I hadn't underestimated that witch and had envisaged her being wise by bringing the police along with her, I'd have gotten the money and been swimming in wealth with Anna by now.I was lost in thought and the rattling sound of keys I heard made me know that someone was at the door. I wondered who it was and what they'd do to me. Moreover, I wanted to ask someone if Kendall survived but no one answered.As the door clicked open, Stephen stormed in and slammed the door behind him, his face masked with a fury tha
