The Billionaire's Kept Woman

Chapter 219 - The Bullies



Chapter 219 - The Bullies

Keira should weep in her room. However, she chose to go to work and watched on the television as the co-workers from the shops that she worked at. Mostly the people who got the interview are the ones who bullied her so much. They threatened her for taking the tips. She received a lot of tips from the customers because she worked well and it's her one way to get medicine for her mother.

She didn't want to weep after remembering those painful memories of how she suffered. She cleared her throat and stared at the television.

"What do you want to do now?" Johanna asked.

"Nothing. I am sure that Harvey would take care of it."

"Okay," Johanna put a hand over her shoulder. "By the way, Connor was currently escorting Tracey and Ian out. I think they are going to make a move soon. Both wrecking the Golden Age and killing Tracey."

"I don't think that they would kill Ian so easily. If they put him in the facility, it's more likely what will happen."

"You are right." Johanna sighed. "After I give birth I will do everything to pull them to hell. Probably wiped them out."

"Jo." She whispered. "I don't want that. I just want a peaceful life with my loved ones. I want you to be safe rather than going there and slaughtering them."

"You also really think that I would just sit and let them bully you, dear little sister?" Johanna's voice became dangerous. It quickly sent shivers through Keira's spine. She never thought Johanna would become aggressive. "I don't mind if I get hurt a little. You won't be at peace if that bitch is still alive anyway."

Keira didn't comment. She doesn't want her to make an impulsive decision.

"You have to take care of my baby, right?" Johanna asked again, which made her uncomfortable. Keira nodded her head and so, Johanna kissed her top head and left her office. She didn't know what she's going to do.

But she continued with her work and shortly, the identities of the people who slandered Keira were shown. She rushed outside her office and didn't find Johanna and the bodyguards were still on her floor. She quickly reached for her phone to check on Johanna but then her father came out.

"Don't contact her." He said and approached her. "I know that you are tired, Keira. I know that you are afraid. I'm sorry if I let things happen like this." He reached Keira's head and caressed her hair. "My Princess, this time, Papa will protect you. Okay?"

Keira sniffled when the water dropped from her nose and her eyes started becoming warm and she started crying like a little girl in front of her father. Henry pulled her into a hug and rubbed her back.

"There are a lot of people who would protect you now, Keira."

"But~~I don't want everyone to die for me." She started hiccupping.

Tracey was clutching the Nike bag that she packed with her casual clothes while they were inside the delivery truck that was set up for them. She couldn't tell her mother what was happening but she must leave to survive.

"Hey," Ian reached her hand and she held it quickly.

She couldn't see much in the dark and it smelled dry. He turned on the flashlight. They've been traveling for three hours now and she's starving and needs a bathroom. "We will be there soon." He peeked at the small peep.

"Who is driving this truck?" She asked again.

"Someone that was set for us. Hey," he scooped her face and kissed her lips. "Everything will be alright as soon as we reach the cabin."

"I'm scared." She whispered and started weeping. He hugged her and took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped her tears. He can see well in the dark so he's able to take care of her.

It didn't take long when they reached the area and the driver stopped and parked the truck. Then, shortly, he tapped the truck to signal them and left. It's their cue to take off too. He came out first and carefully took the bags from her. Then, hold it with one hand as he reached her hand and he put money on the driver's seat.

She put her hood on and held his hand tightly as they rushed to the tricycles. She badly needed a bathroom. So, they stopped by the market and she had to use the public comfort room that doesn't smell good at all. She was relieved after. She washed her hands well and sanitized and she fixed her cap and hood and went outside. Ian quickly reached her arm and took her out.

They bought a few ingredients in the market and she held it though it smelled fishy. Then, they rode on a tricycle again and it went up on the mountain and he paid the driver well. She was starving and they still had to walk.

"I'm sorry. Are you tired?" he asked.

"You don't have to say sorry." She smiled at him. "I should thank you for protecting me."

It was a ten minutes walk when they reached the cabin away from other houses. It's a concrete house with a small balcony and doesn't have any second floor. He opened it and put down their bags. He quickly took the basket and put it in the kitchen.

"There are no lights here?" She asked and started removing the white cloths that protect the furniture from dust.

"It was turned off. There's no heater here though. Is that fine with you?"

"Yes. You don't have to worry so much."

She couldn't demand him for so much. He already gave everything to her and he protected her well. He must be tired of taking care of her. She doesn't want to take advantage of every kind that he did to her.

"I will set our clothes then and clean it." She told him.

"Okay, but don't open the window."

The room was wide but not as big and wide as her room back in their mansion or her condominium unit. She removed the covers and coughed. There are no curtains and she needs to open the window.

"Babe, I have to open the window." She called him. When he didn't respond she went to the kitchen and found fixing the faucet. "Babe?"

"I think there's a vacuum in the storage room. Can you check it out?"

She nodded and went to the storage room and found the box of vacuum. She screamed when there were rats. Ian laughed at her and approached her.

"They indeed have rats here. Don't worry. I bought a device that would make them go away."

Her heart was still pumping hard and she pouted at him. He reached her and kissed her forehead.

"I know… don't worry. This will be over soon and you will be back in the city."

"I don't mind being here with you." She mumbled. "That just scared the hell out of me."

He laughed and kissed both of her cheeks.

"I will prepare our food. I know that you are hungry. I bought bread, at least eat that first."

"I will."

She wanted to know what was currently happening in the city. Because before she left there were a lot of bad things that came up to ruin Keira. She left her phone there, her laptop, and her tablet. She only brought an mp3 for music. She noticed that there's a radio too and a television with an antenna. There are also a lot of DVDs.

She then started cleaning up the bedroom after he turned on the electric fuse. She also put music on while cleaning every side of it while wearing a face mask to cover her nose and mouth from any dust. While cleaning, she thought that she can't live like this and clean her room and go in a dusty shabby place. She never cleans the dustier like this. She finally opened the window while Ian was outside to wash up the fish and meat that they bought.

She gave enough sunlight and opened other windows. She then cleaned up the kitchen and saw a few cockroaches and mice leaving the house. She looked at the small device that he was talking about. She nodded her head and sprayed an air freshener around to remove the dry and dusty smell.

After working hard, the meal is finally ready. She ate a lot and complimented his cooking.

"You did well on cleaning, babe. I should give you a big present."

"Hey, I am tired."

"I didn't say that it was about lovemaking." He laughed and put more fish on her plate. He was careful about the fish bones. "How about a massage?"

She nodded her head vigorously.

"That's my girl." He glanced at the radio that somehow made a static sound.

"Eagle, Eagle. Do you copy?"

"Eagle, this is Viper do you copy?"

He stood washed his hands and took the radio and pressed it.

"Viper, this is Eagle. I copy."

"Good. Location status?"

"Safe and sound."

"Good. Good."

"What's going on now?"

"They are currently searching for your location. We didn't send anyone but there will be agents on standby."

"Roger that." He put it back and looked at Tracey. "We are safe here, dear. Don't worry and eat."

"What about Keira? What's happening there now?"

"We don't know," Ian said. He already guessed what was happening after Harvey took all of the evidence that they gathered.
