When I tried to get into the car, she tried to open the door on the passenger's side. I snapped, "Stop. Could you just get off my back?" I had raised my voice a little. Jeannie froze with shock, though I saw her shoulders shaking. Seeing her like this annoyed me even more. "I know you're after my family's funds. Don't worry, the investment is still a going concern even if we don't marry. Happy now? If you are, go away." When she did not respond, I stepped on the gas and sped off. Those inside the private lounge of the bar, both familiar and unfamiliar, were discussing my running away from the wedding.

I felt the heaviness of defeat even more as I looked at the condescending eyes of Mikel. ‘’What happened?’’ the Don asked, stepping forward. I didn’t want to meet his eyes.

I'm sure he'll kill me then. My heart rate soared at the thought of getting caught, but I knew I would have to risk it. If I didn't try, I would never be able to get away from here. Without another thought, I grabbed the phone from the table. I went to text Jenny but then realized for some reason I couldn't remember her number.

"Let's stop wasting time, shall we? We can get started right now." Belinda laughed maliciously and raised the whip high, aiming it at Wilson. Unfortunately, the lash didn't land as she wished. Wilson didn't move from where he stood, but he caught the whip as it hurtled toward him. The barbs on it pierced his palm, but he didn't feel the pain. His heart was in such agony that everything else paled in comparison! "Belinda Stone." He stared at the rosary on her wrist, asking coldly, "Where did you get that rosary from?"

But yes, just go on! Walk away from here so that I could finally get out! The second guard nodded and agreed. “You’re right. She can absolutely not escape. Let’s go and have some chicken soup for a while.” “Yeah. Let’s go. I’m hungry, too.” She watched as the two men walked inside the elevator and entered there.
