Trapped with the CEO

Perla stopped and walked back, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Close the door!"

"Jonas, I have boyfriend. Don't you dare touch me or else..." Perla glared at her step father. He was a master manipulator, pretending to be nice in-front of strangers, but she knew the kind of monster he was. More than once, she had toyed with the idea of stabbing him to death.

Disdainfully staring at her, he walked passed and shut the door. He couldn't shake off the feeling of how much she resembled his wife.

Perla shivered.

"Or else what huh? What are you going to do?" His voice dripped with sarcasm, tainting Perla's mood further.

Closing her eyes in disappointment, Perla said resentfully, "Jonas, you'll be punished one day!"

"Be punished? I'm looking forward to that..." Holding her waist, Jonas could feel that she was shivering. He couldn't help but smirk, as his hands roamed every curve of her body.

The onslaught didn't last long as Jonas finally let her go. Perla took the opportunity and ran out of the study, Vowing that she needed to get married soon, or else Jonas would do more than touching her. After calming down, Perla called her brother Hugh.

Even though she was his half sister, Perla had a good relationship with him.

He knew the struggles that she went through, since she had caught Jonas taking advantage of her once. From then on, Hugh had seen his father in a different light.

They had fought then, and ever since, Hugh had barely been back home either.

In the President's Office of the SL Group- America division.

Colin was still waiting for Wade's email.

He had smoked two packs of cigarettes, when a sound emitted from his laptop, notifying him of a new email.

Colin watched the surveillance video with a stolid expression on his face. It was clear that the woman in a light yellow coat was Sophia.

Payne was beside her as they stepped into the same room together.

Opening the other email, he compared the time stamps with

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex. To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him. "As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women...

e Lian family, doomed to die...'

"Colin, can you help me look for my father when you are free?" She implored in a low voice.

Colin said coldly, "Okay."

"Thank you, Colin. Without your help, I don't know what to do... Luckily I have you. I'm so lucky..." Colin frowned when he sensed that she is crying.

He didn't know what to do. Should he trust her?

"I'm still busy. You should go rest." Colin hung up the phone without waiting for a response.

Clumsy as she may be, she felt something was wrong with Colin. Why was he so cold to her?

What had she done to upset him?

Sophia's heart broke, as she couldn't think of a reason as to why he was acting the way he was. 'Could it be because she was disturbing him when he was working?'

'Had either Jonas or Gregary kidnapped my father?' Her head swarm with thoughts, oscillating between her father and husband.

To add onto the heartbreak and sorrow, Renee passed away the next evening, when Sophia had gone to visit her. Sophia held onto her grandma's hands until they went limp.

All the misfortune she was enduring, was more than she could bare. She went numb.

Later on that evening, she went to Lian's villa. Her agony drove her to go there, without thinking of what the consequences would be.

All she wanted was to kill Gregary and Jonas.
