The Billionaire’s Son Chose Me!

Charlotte ran her hands through her hair pacing around, it was a good thing that they were able to lost Kyle’s men who were tailing her earlier..

She couldn’t leave the country because all roads were currently blocked, this was definitely Kyle’s doing..

He’d surely comb the entire city clean to find his son and there was no doubt that she’d be apprehended..

So she needed to act fast, right now the only place she could get to stay in the whole city was at this abandoned factory which used to be her base….

The sound of groan and grunts reached her ears as two men dragged in a middle aged man who could barely stand on his feet..

He looked tattered and starved, his grey hair was unkempt so as his beards..

This was no other than Mr Carter, Charlotte and Arya’s dad whom Dennis had been keeping in his custody for some time now..

The men released their grip on him which caused him to fall on his knees..

A smirk spread across her face, this was the same man she used to adore when she was a young kid but now all she saw and felt for him was hatred!

“Well.. well.. well.. Mr Carter, long time no see”

Sharon walked in with an unconscious Ray in her arms..

“Ma’am.. we can’t stay here for long.. Mr Anderson and his men are going crazy out there”

Charlotte gave a nod, she pulled out her phone and took a few steps away from Sharon and her dad..

“Hi.. can you do me a favor?”

Martin sat up on hearing her voice, he didn’t believe that she’d call him, Kyle was searching around for her after she took Ray away..

His parents were currently behind bars which they deserved..

“What do you want?” He demanded as he opened his laptop sitting on the desk in front of him..

“As you know.. Kyle is currently after me.. and I need to leave the city as soon as possible, so can you arrange a chopper to pick me up?”

Martin narrowed his eyes at the laptop screen, he zoomed in squinting his gaze at the red flashing dot..

“Fine! I’ll arrange for a chopper in ten minutes.. hang on”

He disconnected the call and rose up to his feet picking up his suit jacket resting on his seat..

“Hi Kyle.. Before you hang up on me at least listen to what I have to say”

***

Charlotte chuckled fondling with her phone, she knew Martin wouldn’t be able to resist helping her, after all the fool was still so blindly in love with her..

“Once the chopper gets here.. even Kyle wouldn’t be able to stop me from fleeing the country with his son..” She mumbled to herself..

Not too long one of the men ran in panting heavily “Ma’am.. our location has been blown off.. they are heading here!”

Charlotte panicked slightly, she tapped on her phone once more trying to get through to Martin but the latter’s phone was out of reach..

“Shit!.. there’s no need to panick.. you’re Charlotte you’ll definitely find a way out” she chanted continuously..

It suddenly dropped, if this was the case then she’d need to improvise, she wanted to see Arya on her knees begging and crying for mercy..

Her eyes fell on Ray and her dad, these two were going to be her pawn in this game she had learnt to play over time..

“Pick him up..”

***

Kyle stepped out of his car closely followed by Arya, she ran to his side staring around her unfamiliar surroundings..

Two cars pulled over next to their’s as a dozen men stepped out..

“Kyle.. this doesn’t seem right.. Charlotte is very smart to hide in a place like this”

“Martin sent her location and my men confirmed it also..”

Kyle replied, he pulled out his phone from his pants pocket and stared at the screen, funny enough it was Charlotte calling…

Her crackling laughter came up the next the minute he answered…

“Charlotte! where is Ray?!” He barked out looking around his surroundings..

Arya held his arm staring at his face intently trying to read his facial expression..

“You’re in no position to yell at me Kyle Anderson! if you want to see your son.. why don’t you unblock all roads leading out of the city? and then maybe I can leave Ray out of this mess?.”

Kyle seethed on rage, he took Arya’s hand and began walking away with the guards tailing behind them…

Meanwhile…

“Ma’am they are here!”

Charlotte’s lips pulled up into a devilish smirk, she took a glance at the her dad and Ray who were tied up on a metal seat with a very long chain behind it..

A thin naked wire was tied loosely around their neck while the other end was placed in a switch which was turned off.. for now

This was the only little backup plan she could make given the time, if the switch was eventually turned on the two would receive the shock of their lives..

“Charlotte!”

Charlotte turned around with a wide grin on her face, they were here finally!

She opened her hands wide..

“Surprise! there you both are! welcome.. welcome!”

Arya’s eyes blazed in anger, her chest heaved up and down in anger.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

Her gaze fell on Ray who seemed to be unconscious, she traced the wire around his neck to the switch behind Charlotte..

“You psycho! what are you trying to do to my son?!” Arya yelled out taking a step forward to Charlotte, she felt the ground under her left foot sink..

Kyle was quick to pull her back, he knew this was definitely a trap..

The chains on the dusty ground clinked and clashed against each other as they pulled up taking Ray and Mr Carter’s seat up in the air slowly..

“What the-

“Dad!” Arya called out in shock but he didn’t move neither did Ray, they were both unconscious and she couldn’t get any closer..

She felt that whatever she stepped on earlier had something to do with the floating seats..

Charlotte took a seat on the chair already provided for her..

“Charlotte let them go now! or else you’d be sorry for yourself!” Kyle barked out furiously which didn’t move a hair on Charlotte’s head..

“Don’t yell at me Kyle.. things wouldn’t have gotten to this stage if you hadn’t involved this lady into our lives..”

“What would you gain by harming your son and father?! don’t you have any emotions?!” Arya yelled out..

Charlotte snorted at the mention of the word ‘father’ ..

“Father? he’s only your father Arya.. he never loved me!.. your mum and dad chose to abandon me at the country we left for a vacation after a riot! every other parents were trying to protect their kids on that day.. but mine left me, I had to spend two years at the orphanage and the day I was able to meet them again.. they already moved on.. ”

“They already had a three year old daughter at that time.. I watched them on daily basis showering her with lots of love, they got her whatever she wanted.. whereas I was forced to practice swordfighting even though I didn’t want to.. now you see why I hate you?! you took my place in my parents life, Kyle’s life and also my son’s life..”

Arya’s brows furrowed confusedly, how come her parents never mentioned any of these things to her?? was Charlotte saying the truth or not??

“I hate you!.. I so much hate to see you breathing and living your life so happily! Arya!!” She roared..

“Arya”

Arya snapped her head up, that was Ray, he was awake now..

“Good he’s awake.. so I’ll give you an option Arya, who do you want to save first? your dad? or your nephew who is more like a son to you now?”

Kyle jaw clenched, Charlotte really played smart out here, he and his men couldn’t even do a thing.. any wrong step could prove really dangerous..

“The more steps you come closer, the higher they’ll go.. until they reach the very top which could be really bad.. the harsh reality of this game is that, one of them won’t make it out alive” She declared with an eery laughter following suite..

The look on their faces only brought joy to her face, for the first time, she saw the fear that crossed on both of their faces..

“You’re making a very big mistake Charlotte!”

“Not at all Kyle.. the game has only begun Hun” She chuckled..

Arya placed a palm over her mouth to stop herself from screaming, Ray’s cries reached her ears, she felt her heart being ripped out..

“Arya.. daddy.. I’m very scared please save me.. I promise I won’t trouble anyone of you again.. I’ll eat my dinner and go to bed on time”

Charlotte turned to Arya who was still in a deep thought..

“So dear little sis.. who are you saving? your dad? or the little boy who you’ve known for just a few months?”
