~Laurel~"Kurt please, just let me go. I promise I'll stay away from you for eternity. You won't ever see me again.""Actually, that isn't what I want or what I came here for.""Then why are you here?" I whispered, trying my best to break free from him. But not only was he caging my hands above my head, he was also caging my body. Pressing me hard into the wall."Let's play a game, Laurel.""Whatever game, you have in mind, I want no part in it.""But you'll still play it, right?" He dipped his hand in his pockets and brought out his phone."What are you doing?""Relax, Laurel, it's easy. All you have to do is repeat after me. Infact it's the most simplest thing in the world to do. Just repeat the words after me."I eyes him suspiciously, my hands still above my head. "No. I won't say anything to you.""Then you'll have to look for your mother for the rest of your life.""What?" I panicked. He wouldn't dare hurt my mother. "Mom?""She's in New York isn't she? Lives in a four bedroom a
~Laurel~Kurt's eyes roamed down my body before resting on the bags in my hands."Nothing can be kept hidden in the dark forever." Kurt said, making a pool of self consciousness to fill me.I turned to Vivian behind me. "Give us a minute, please.""Sure." She said and walked out.We glared at each other for what seemed like seconds before I cleared my throat."What are you doing here? How did yo---""Find her?" He cut in roughly. "Maybe someone wasn't being loyal after all."Zach.How dare him betray me?!That bastard will pay for this!"You told me she was dead. Didn't even need a doctor to tell me that she's mine. Although, I'll still need a DNA test, but when you said she looked like me, you weren't fooling around."I gripped his jacket. "Stay away from her." I quickly let go of him when he glared at my hand. "From a child you despise? These people here aren't nice. I can't believe that you actually gave her up to them!""Kurt, lower your voice.""Why should I? How about I go tel
~Laurel~He didn't flinch. More like my slap didn't do anything to him. "Are you done?"Bastard son of a bitch. "Where's Mira? Where's Andre? Where the fuck are you keeping them?!""The things I'd want to do to you, Laurel Hyde." He said slowly, moving closer to me as I took steps backwards."I don't care about the things you wanna do to me but if you touch Mira or even Andre---""You wouldn't be able to do anything."He was right. But nevertheless, I'll still have to make believe that I was stronger than the Laurel he used to know. "I'll charge you for kidnapping and attempted murder. Do you really think you can win me in court?"That regular smirk was hovering on his lips again. "I don't need to go to a court, to win you. You see, Laurel, I've already won." The smirk broadened.Just then in a twinkle of an eye, I moved closer to one of his men and flung his gun from him.I shot in the air and lifted the gun and pointed it at Kurt."Do you really think you have the guts to kill me?'
~Laurel~Thank you, Leon." I said as Leon helped me down from my car which was parked in the garage of K-Corps.I took off my sunglasses and handed it over to him. As usual, the grumpy men were standing in front of the entrance gate of the building. But it wasn't going to happen today. I would not let them intimidate me like their boss. Like it or not, I was richer than every single staff in the building combined and I was going to show it to them. I was going to be, Laurel Hyde. The sassy and classy Laurel Hyde.As soon as they saw me coming, they blocked the entrance. I smiled. "Mick." I said to the leader of the men. "Move out of my way.""Ho--how did you know my name?""Move out will you?"Another pulled out an intercom."Bo--""If you still wanna keep your job, I suggest you put that thing back into his place." When he frowned his grumpy face, I smirked. "You see your boss and I have history together. And I believe you know me, so are you going to move out of my way or not?"~It
~Laurel~As soon as I cut the ribbons, claps and cheers gracefully filled the air."Congratulations Laurel!" Kaitlyn screamed in excitement as she lunged herself on me."Congrats, best friend." Liam said, as soon as Kaitlyn let go, coming round to pull me into a hug. I hugged him and then I hugged Wesley who wouldn't stop smiling at me."I'm proud of you.""Thanks." I said and quickly let go of him when I saw my mother."My baby!" She said and embraced me. "I'm proud of you. So so proud.""Thanks mom. I'm so happy I made all of you so proud.""You've always made me so proud, Laurel. Always."I greeted Liam's parents who also congratulated me and just then I saw Wesley's parents walking towards me. I wanted to save them the walk and so I got to them first."Congrats, Laurel." Damon Cooper said smilingly, as I shook hands with him.Beatrice Cooper, Wesley's mom hugged me. She was also like a mother to me. "Diamond collections? That's huge. Welcome to the team, Laurel.""Thanks Aunt Bett
~Laurel~After my meeting with Kurt, I traveled to Seattle for a photoshoot. On my way back, I dropped by mom's and apologized for lying to her. Then I stopped by Zach Norman's. It was obvious he was avoiding me because he didn't only blocked my number, he completely shut me out and wherever I go to find him, I'll be told he traveled for a business meeting. Even though the Zach I knew hated business trips.My car pulled off in the compound of Zach's mother. He had mistakenly told me where his mother lived, three years ago when we went out together so I decided to try my luck. I wanted to know the reason why he did what he did. I wanted to know if Kurt blackmailed him or did anything to him that made him betray me and our friendship.I knocked twice on the door but on the third knock, the door sprung open and reveled a woman in her mid-sixties. "Hello, how may I help you?""Is Zach home? I really need to speak with him."Her face beamed with a smile. A smile? Right. It was that smile
~Laurel~"Get the hell away from me!" I yelled and yelped away from him, backing off till I hit my back against the wall.He threw the mask on the floor. "Yo--you're the anonymous donor?"He smirked. "What do you think?"He was the anonymous donor. Only Kurt would sit like a deserted and lonely child when he actually had everything that would make people fly around him like flies."What are you doing here? How on earth did you find me? It's you, isn't it? You're the one following me around. What do you want Kurt?""You.""What?""It's simple, Laurel. You." He moved closer but I changed location and stepped away from him. What exactly was this man saying? What on earth is wrong with him?"Listen here, I don't know what exactly is wrong with you. You didn't only threw me out of LAGS, insulted me, you took Mira away from me and now you're talking insane things?!" I breathe out, running my hand through my hair. "Just get the fuck out. I need Jason right now.""You mean your body guard?"I
~~~~~~~Kurt~~~~~~~~"Sir she's here."The doors opened and Bella walked in. She was beautiful to everyone but to me she was ugly. I didn't compliment a woman or acknowledge their beauty, I never did. No matter how close they were to me.Bella Daniels has been my therapist since I was 17. She was related to my mom in some way or the other but that didn't matter to me. She was British, rich, 43, lived a life of luxury and was married to an american business tycoon. She was the closest person to me before and after my mom died but I had her replaced with my long time nanny, Camilla Wilson."Kurt." She called out my name in a seductive manner. "Anger issues again?""No." I tapped on my clenched jaw. "What are you doing here?""Just came to check up on you. Had lunch yet?"I got up and towered over her. "I asked you a question.""And I gave you an answer.""Bella you're not being truthful here.""Where's she?""Where's who?""Your daughter?"I dug my hands into my pockets. "Whoever I have
