Chapter 140: Chapter 140

After Mandy cry out her eyes, she decided to leave, she doesn't want to go back to the hotel room and she doesn't want to reach Dylan, reaching Dylan, will alert Lauren and going to the mansion will make her more devastated, Merlin was the only person she could think of

Earlier when she show up at Merlin, the man was surprised but he felt sorry for Mandy, so he pulled the condo unit for her to enter.

Mandy sit on the couch, he get her something to change to because she is looking all worn out and dirty, she bathe but she just can't touch the food, Merlin had order for her.

Go on and eat.

I am not hungry, I know I have no right over him but he would had told me. Merlin look at her, he wanted to tell her that Lauren doesn't love his sister but who is he to talk bad about his sister. I am just some trash, the daughter of a prostitute, an illegitimate child, who am I to want to marry the heir to the Daniel's

Stop having thoughts like that, you are... His words didn't finish, before the doorbell ring, Mandy look at him.

Are you expecting anyone? Mandy asked, he shakes his head.

Merlin open up, I know Mandy is in there.

Mandy stand in fear, Mandy know that Lauren could get any information he wanted but he never expected that, Lauren could be fast in finding her.

Immediately she place a call at the call center at the hotel, she knows that, information must reach Lauren but not this fast.

Shit! She curse, Merlin walked to the door, Lauren punch his face as soon as the door pull open.

Ouch! Merlin screamed holding his nose

Lauren! Mandy yelled, even Dylan is shock with his act, the man has bottle anger for him, right since he saw Merlin hand on her back then his sister just mess things up for him, on top that, the first solace Mandy could think of was him.

Let's go! He pulled Mandy's hand.

I am not going, just leave me, I am not ready for this.

What did you say?

I said I am not leaving with you, I am not... He pulled Mandy on his shoulder before she could finish her words. Lauren let me go.

She hit on his back but Lauren didn't bulge, he walked out of the condominium.

I am sorry! Dylan apologize to the bleeding Merlin then dart out. Lauren drive like mad, stone is back home, he could feel the heat of anger coming out of Lauren as he pulled the car and dragged Mandy out.

Let me go, I told you, I don't want to be here.

Why?

Isn't it obvious. Lauren doesn't want to admit that Mandy had also heard the news, he wasn't expecting that idiot to let her watch it.

What?

What do you mean what? Do you think I am a fool? I saw the news, it's everywhere, yes, you and Amelia are getting married, I am just the third wheel right?

Mandy please! Don't be like this, I could explain everything...

It's too late, I don't want to hear it. Lauren face darken, her words are painful, she should let him explain, fine, he fucked up, he could had warn her before time, he shouldn't had hide anything from her.

But he was scared, too scared to tell her everything going on, scared of losing her and scared of putting her life in danger, he was thinking, going away with her was the best solution but no, fate had a turn for him and her.

Bonbon, please hear...

I said no, how thou fuck did you even find me, I want to be alone.

From the hotel...

Oh! So I don't fucking have privacy? I will sued them for infringing on my privacy.

Mandy stop it, I was worried, so I had to track the last person you contacted with the phone at the hotel, so I find out is Merlin

Then they gave you that...

Stop asking, the hotel belongs to the Daniel's, Mandy fall to the couch, she just can't believe that Lauren will keep trapping her, she wants to get free from him.

Mandy, I know I goof badly, I was just looking out for you safety, I could not risk your life like that but what I did wrong was not to tell you, I will be going there, I don't know what to do..

Then you put Dylan up for him to distract me.

No, I just...

Lauren, let me be, I don't want to hear any more lies.

Mandy, I beg you, hear me out.

Fine, five minutes to say everything.

Lauren gasped for air, he wasted no time, he need to tell her everything, not a word escape, from when Amelia was betrothed to him, to when he was being blackmail with Mandy's life, how he ended up at the runway with Amelia, to how he ended up in same room with Amelia, everything, even though he doesn't have to do all that but he went on to tell her.

Mandy could feel he is saying the truth, Lauren haven't lie to her before, even when he hate her, he told her he did,so what is the need of lying to her now.

But still, Mandy's heart is far from him, she is hurting, she just don't think, this relationship is going anywhere.

Mandy, I swear, I would not have be too closed to her, I would had just throw her out, I was just been stupid, if really I wanted that to happen, I will not have text you to come there, I am not that stupid.

Lauren, it's fine.

You believe me right?

I do, yes, I do.

Thank you!

Lauren! He raised his head to look at her, since she is standing already. Let's break up, I don't think anything will come out of this.

Lauren eyes widened, he wasn't thinking Mandy will bring this up, they are good now, Lauren stand as well.

Mandy, I just fucking explain everything to you.

Yes, I know but that is the problem, Amelia is there, I can't battle with her

Who said, you are going to battle with her? I am...

Lauren stop it. This time, when Lauren wants to lock lips with her, she pushed him. I don't want that.

We can handle this, you and I...

Lauren stop this madness, it's leading us nowhere.

Lauren sit, he closed his eyes for sometime, he is thinking, then he open it.

It's okay!

Thanks, I will be move out by tomorrow and...

That too? Mandy you should just kill me.

Mandy look at him, he was thinking that Mandy will stay, even if they are no longer dating, with time, she will take him back, she is leaving.

Where are you going? He asked.

I don't know but away, very far away, I appreciate everything that you've done for me, I don't think, someone else could fill your place in my heart but for now, I am not ready.

Lauren look at her, as she turned immediately her last words ended, Lauren closed his eyes, although, she had given him a sense of belonging, that he is special to her but the truth is, it's still hurt, hurt that he is losing her.

Hurt that she is breaking up with him without thinking how he is going to cope. Making decision for them without asking for his opinion.

Fine! If that is what will make you happy.

Thank you.
