The Law of Attraction

Chapter 543: Fallen In Love

Finally, the antidote for the drug arrived. In about half an hour, Kenzie started feeling better and eventually fell asleep after the injection was administered by the private doctor.

Daryl heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Kenzie sleeping peacefully and looking much better than she did a few hours back. The doctor also confirmed that she would be perfectly fine by the time she woke up and the drug would be completely ineffective.

Daryl stayed by her side while waiting for her father to arrive. He was still nervous about Kenzie's condition as he had to endure a lot to not lose his control and keep Kenzie company for those few hours while waiting for the antidote.

He was on the verge of losing himself a few times but he controlled himself with all his might because he did not want to do anything that would make him feel guilty afterward. He would never take advantage of the situation.

Kenzie stirred a little and Daryl checked on her immediately. It was just then that Kenzie's father entered and saw how mindful he was of her. He was taken by surprise when he saw him sitting by her bedside and taking so good care of her, unaware of all that had gone through with them both while he was away.

He looked at Daryl with questioning eyes. When Daryl saw Mr. Chua standing there, he stood up immediately and looked at him a little sheepishly. Images of the time when he hugged and kissed Kenzie played in front of his eyes.

"What happened to her? Do you know the people responsible for all this?" He asked Daryl in a sharp tone.

Daryl gulped hearing the anger in his voice and replied in a timid voice, "No sir, I do not know those guys. When I reached there I found Kenzie drugged. The guys there wanted to take advantage of her and with the help of her bodyguards I somehow managed to bring her out and get her treated."

"Did you….did you...do... anything...to…." Mr. Chua stuttered as he was already aware, before he took the plane, what kind of drug Kenzie was given.

He feared something bad happening as he knew that because of the effects of that drug Kenzie would not be able to ward off her desires and Daryl being a man wouldn't hesitate in taking advantage of such a vulnerable woman. A woman who was beautiful, wealthy, and the heir to one of the most successful business empires would be a good catch for him given the state he was in at present.

Daryl understood what he meant and chuckled before gazing at him with his sharp eyes. He couldn't help but say, "No sir. I did not violate the modesty of your daughter. I know you have your reasons to think badly about me, but let me make it clear that I have my morals and I always keep them on the highest pedestal.

It would have been easy for me, but I know how a woman should be respected and protected. That is all I did when she was in her most vulnerable moment."

Mr. Chua was stunned to hear him say that and also was a little impressed when he came to know Daryl didn't take undue advantage of Kenzie. But he knew his background and was not happy about his daughter being with him as he had been abandoned by his family and had been living on his own.

He wanted his son-in-law to be a renowned businessman in the country, someone who could protect his daughter and the family business he would leave for Kenzie.

Daryl looked at the sleeping woman once again and left the place immediately to return to his apartment. He knew how Kenzie's father thought of him, the abandoned son of his wealthy family… A wry smile curved in his lips at the thought of his own family.

Meanwhile, it was already noon when Kenzie woke up. As soon as she tried to open her eyes, she felt a splitting headache. Her entire body ached and flashes of the previous night immediately danced in front of her eyes.

How those men fed her drugs, Daryl rushing in to save her, taking her to the hospital, and the passionate kissing and hugging between them… his hands on her body….

When she remembered how much he controlled himself and how he could have done anything with her but didn't, she was full of admiration and respect for him. Even though she was suffering from extreme pain in her entire body a small smile came upon her lips.

"What is making you so proud of yourself you brat!!"

Kenzie was jolted and she looked with fear-filled in her eyes towards the direction where the roar came from. She immediately sprang up and sat straight in the bed and didn't know how to reply. Mr. Chua was fuming with anger and Kenzie didn't have the courage to utter a single word in front of him.

"Do you know how much danger you were in yesterday? When will you understand Kenzie? Till when will you keep treating your life like a game?" his voice softened and a dash of helplessness got mixed in it.

"You are my only child Kenzie, and you are very precious to me. Had anything untoward happened to you yesterday, how would I answer you mother?" Tears welled up in his eyes as he said those words.

Kenzie felt extremely guilty for her actions. She went there to have some fun. But she ended up in a mess and somehow Daryl was able to save her.

"I'm sorry dad… I will never do it again… I promise…" she genuinely whispered and she felt the tight hug of her father. She sighed and really felt sorry for causing her father to worry this much.

She looked around the room to look for Daryl, he was nowhere to be seen. Daryl had gained a new respect in her eyes. She suddenly felt empty in her heart and wished she could have seen Daryl as well in front of her the moment she woke up.

That was the moment she realized, something had changed in her and she had probably fallen in love with the man.

'I will make sure to get your heart and you… Daryl Cha..!'
