A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 183 No Need to Stay

“Lara called your expatriating marketing manager, Peter Mollison, very often…”

William did not say anything when hearing Peter’s name; though being surprised with it, he still appeared to be peaceful just then and asked, “Please check his background. I need to know the reason.”

Hanging off the call, he remained calm with an idea in his mind.

Liam asked, “Have you got any information?”

“Not yet.” William denied and asked more, “Liam, what’s friend?”

Liam did not understand why William asked such a question. He answered after thinking for a while, “Friend is someone you can call him at midnight; he will firstly care about what happened to you and after knowing you are fine, he will start to complain why you call him late at night! Friend is someone who can give up anything in the world for his lover, but he also can give up her for you. Friend is someone who laughs at you loudly when you feel embarrassed but definitely gives you a hand after all. Friend is someone who dares not to die for you as well as someone who would love to be drunk with you overnight.”

William said quietly, “If your friend betrays…”

Liam answered seriously, “He will not be my friend anymore!”

“He might have some troubles. I believe him.” William said, “We are getting there. Park the car please and wait for me.”

Liam worried about him and asked, “Are you ok to go alone?”

William said with a smile, “She doesn’t know I am here. Maybe safe. But please take my body away if I were dead.”

“You have to be kidding!” Liam slapped William and said, “If she did it, I would let her pay back!”

William nodded; he knew Liam was a true friend to him. As to Peter, he did not believe Peter whom he knew for years betrayed him.

Lara rented an old condo in G City.

William got off the car and walked to her condo. After knocking the door, he heard the familiar voice, “Who’s that please?” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Lara did not expect William to come to see her. She was shocked as soon as opening the door to see him.

William said coldly, “Long time no see, Lara!”

Lara was overwhelmed by his voice and opened her eyes wide. She did not feel at ease to see William who she would not forget for all her life.

“Hi, Mr. Rowland?” Lara called William a minute later and watched him. From his look, she was not sure about what he knew, or he had found her secret?

William walked closer and looked down on her without any special reaction, just saying, “Lara, how are you?”

“Thanks for asking. I’m fine.” Lara controlled her mind; she should realize earlier that the day would come. She asked, “What can I do for you today? In fact, I am going out.”

William came inside the room, “Am I not welcome?”

Lara had to allow him in. This was a clean condo which was probably just tidied up.

She closed the door and turned around to see the tall man. He was her favorite and familiar man; he greatly obsessed her but then left her. It was him who stopped her from going back to H City.

Lara tried to ask William, “Mr. Rowland, you are here for…”

William turned back and pinched her chin so hard, “Lara, you are really a big girl to do something. Now, tell me why.”

Lara avoided looking at his eyes and said, “I don’t understand what you are talking about.”

William was watching her angrily and Lara could feel his breath and catch his anger from his eyes. William asked, “Lara, I wasn’t nice to you?”

“Mr. Rowland is always a man of your words. Why did you say it?” The weaker Lara looked up at William who was staring at her. She believed William should get to know she told something to the newspaper publisher.

However, he should not know there was another partner involved.

Lara intended to destroy The Rowland Group. Although not getting any benefit from the plan, she would neither get anything from doing nothing.

William smiled slightly and looked some of scaring.

After a while, William pushed her down to the sofa and said, “Stop, Lara.”

Lara sat still to say, “Mr. Rowland, I didn’t catch what you said.”

“Good! Lara, good girl! You really hate me?” William said with sneer.

“Are you kidding? I have kept my promise to you, not going back to H City anymore. Today you come here to see your ex-girlfriend? Or Sherry failed to make you happy so you miss me? Well, if you really want to fuck me now, I will not say no. Don’t waste the time for some excuse. You can come now!”

By then, Lara started to take off her dress.

William narrowed his eyes. He said, “Lara, you prefer humiliating yourself to stopping your plan?”

Just that moment, Lara took off all the clothes and stood in front of William nakedly, “Mr. Rowland, am I still good-looking after long time no see?”

William watched her without any reaction; he was not excited with seeing Lara here, “If you love to be a whore, you can go to a country in Southeast Asia.”

These words were just like a knife plugging in her heart.

Lara did not see any lust from William who was so grim then. She was astonished but still tried to make it. Suddenly, she jumped to William and cuddled him, “Mr. Rowland, I miss you so much!”

William did not react, just looking at her face.

Lara touched and rubbed him, but he kept peaceful. She was doubtful about it. She did not believe a man would refuse her for her doing in the way.

The sexy Lara was embarrassed and angry with her failure. She was almost getting mad.

William saw the change in Lara’s look and smiled, which scared her.

He was totally indifferent to her.

Lara gave up and turned back soon to avoid looking at his eyes, “If you did not come for it, there’s no need to stay here anymore.”

She turned around to the sofa and got dressed.

William did not see her naked body from the beginning; he did not have any chemical with Lara because he loved Sherry so much that he was able to refuse any other woman. In his future, Sherry would be the only one he loved; it was impossible for him to be obsessed with anyone else. He could control himself.

William gave her a slight smile, “If you don’t stop what you are doing to me, I also have to do something. Lara, I will send you to a Southeastern country. You will be happy with many guys at night there.

Lara caught what he said and felt nervous. William intended to sell her to some night clubs there to serve those men. No! She could not go! William would not let her come back once she left. It would ruin all her life.

However, Lara knew she would not admit it and had to keep calm. “Mr. Rowland. I don’t understand.”

She believed William would not do anything to her only if she denied everything. Lara tried to persuade herself in her mind and finally got courage to revenge on him. “William, I won’t give up! Even if I stop, Peter will not agree. He has a big plan.” She thought.

William had a light cough and looked at her, “Excuse me.”

He had his phone to dial a number, “Call some guys here to watch over Lara.”

These easy words shocked Lara. She said, “No! William Rowland, you cannot do it to me! It’s illegal. You cannot lock me here. I will call the police!”

William sneered and held Lara’s shoulders hard. He said coldly and slowly, “For me, you are not smart enough to be up to something.”

Lara was surprised and said, “Am I wrong for loving you so much?” She could not be more heartfriendken.

What a sad question!

But William watched her and answered peacefully, “Love? Have we loved each other before? We only had a trading. It’s you who asks for too much from me! You think you can finish all the group? Lara, don’t be silly. I am really interested to know how much Peter paid you to let you do all these to me.”

“You…” Lara did not expect it at all.

William got to know Peter was involved.

Right then, Lara’s mobile phone had a call. She rushed to get it, but William got it before her and saw the caller’s name was P.

He asked with frown, “P for Peter?”

Lara lowered her head and said, “Since you know everything, I admit it. I did all these just because I hate to be ignored by you all the time.”

William passed the mobile phone to her, “Nobody looked down upon you. Only yourself. Answer his call and talk as normal. I promise you I will not send you to the police station. If you don’t agree, just go to the Southeast Asia?”

Lara was scared by the words, saying, “Ok, I do.”

She answered the call but heard nothing from the call except that someone was breathing. Lara knew the smart Peter tried not to talk as the first one. She said, “Speaking please.”

As soon hearing Lara, Peter started to talk, “Why are you answering me so late?”

Lara glanced at William and said in lower voice, “I was having a shower.”

“Send the second document.”

“Now?”

“Sure!” Peter hung off the call soon.

Then Lara turned back to look at William and said, “He asked to send out the document that will bring troubles to your group.”

After thinking for a while, William asked, “How did you get these documents?”

“Peter gave it to me.” Lara said and then got a USB disk.

William nodded, “Ok. Please stay here until the problem is solved. I will keep my promise to you.”

Just that moment, Lara heard someone walking to her condo.
