I Married My Ex-fiance’s Father
Chapter 54.
Chapter 54
~BLAIR~
For two days now, I have been locked up in a room without a single water or food to eat.
When those people took me away from the house in the name of an arrest, I thought they were cops.
Who would have thought they were kidnappers?
And I could swear that Jessy has a hand in this.
She was the one who brought them to my room and pointed me out to them.
Could she be behind the accident too?
And then used the opportunity to have me kidnapped.
There is nothing Jessy can not do to satisfy her fetish interest.
“Are you still alive?”
One of them asked the moment he stepped inside the room.
This is the first time they have cared to check up on me since I was brought here.
But is it even to check on how I am doing?
No,
They want to know if I am still alive.
“Let’s just shoot her.”
What!
My heart started palpitating the moment that was mentioned.
“No, let's wait for another day.”
An argument broke out between them.
“Another day you say? We've locked her here for two days to die of hunger, but she didn't. The boss will be upset when…”
He paused and glared at me.
When what?
Is the Boss a lady or a guy?
I can swear it must be Jessy.
She hates me so much, and she can do worse than this.
My only worry now is Frederick,
How is he coping with all these?
“Let her starve to death, guys. If we kill her now, the baby in her will die too.”
“Isn’t that what the boss wants?”
These people are heartless I swear.
And I can't die here,
No,
I must find a way to leave this place.
As soon as they stepped out and locked the door,
I gathered up my strength and crawled to the window.
Luckily, the window is very big and I can manage to leave through it.
I opened it gently to avoid making any sign that would draw their attention to me.
Immediately the window opened, and I jumped out, hurting myself at the same time.
Luckily, none of them were in sight and I could hear their husky voices from a far distance.
“In three days, she is going to die of hunger. None of us should check her now, let us wait until three days. And if she doesn't die of hunger, then we will have no choice but to shoot her.”
Pffft.
Do that to an empty room, idiots.
In a day, I will come back and you will be arrested, fools.
I ran as fast as I could, panting heavily, and holding my baby bump.
It wasn't easy running with a heavy pregnancy, but I made it.
After wandering around for a few minutes on the street, I saw a bus driving towards me.
I started waving my hand, shouting help, but the driver sped past me.
He must be scared to help a stranger when there are pupils inside the bus.
Lost with no hope, I sat down on a big stone, praying so hard that help would locate me.
Suddenly, the bus returned and I sprang up.
“What are you doing here, woman?”
The middle-aged driver asked, staring at me deeply as if he knew me.
“I was kidnapped and escaped from my abductors. Please take me inside the city, and I will reward you massively.”
He bobbed his head,
Got off the bus and opened the back door for me.
The kids were all moving away from me, but I don't care.
The only thing I need right now is to return home safely.
An hour later, we arrived in the city.
And since I am not with my phone, I had to plead with him to lend me his.
“Sorry, I can't. I am scared my phone will be tracked.”
He said and I agreed with him.
Even though I know that no one will track him, I can't just force him to give me his phone.
“Tell me where you live and I will take you there.”
Awn,
What a sweet soul.
I wanted to give him the house address, but I hesitated.
What if he uses the opportunity to kidnap me after I tell him?
No,
I have a plan.
“I can give you directions until we reach the house.”
He didn't argue with me and that was how we arrived home.
“Isn’t this Mr. Frederick White’s mansion? What are we doing here?”
I got off the bus,
“I am his wife.”
His jaw dropped and his eyes widened in shock.
“I didn't know I was driving Mrs. Frederick.”
I smiled at him.
“Thanks for your help. If not for you, I have no idea what my fate would have been. Wait for me here, I will send over your reward.”
He bowed his head and I hurried to the gate.
“Mrs. Frederick!”
The security at the gate exclaimed.
But I had no time for that,
I need to get inside and call Frederick to come home, that is if he isn't home.
“Mrs. Frederick!”
The maid who opened the door exclaimed too.
“Come with me.”
I said and she followed me to the room.
I brought out a fat envelope containing cash from the safe and gave it to her.
“There is a man outside the gate, give it to him and tell him I am grateful for his help.”
She bowed her head and scurried out of the room.
Phew!
I am finally back home.
Now where is my phone?
I searched for it in the room, but couldn't find it.
After I had searched for more than thirty minutes, it dawned on me that the phone had been shattered when I received the heartbreaking news from my assistant a few days ago.
“Give me your phone.”
The maid handed over her phone and I punched in Frederick’s number.
I called and called, but he didn't answer the call.
And when I returned the phone to her, he called back.
“Baby? It is I, Blair. Please come home.”
Beeep!
He disconnected the call?
Didn't he hear what I said?
