Chapter 2

I'm already on my way to the airport. Not even a goodbye is thrown upon my way. Well, who am I in my father's life ? I'm even regarded lower than our maids,so why would he bother to waste his precious time with the likes of me.

I'm just the girl who tried to save my father's company from being bankrupt. I'm the girl they've sent to finish their business deals with countless of intolerable p*****t businessmen. The girl they send to different continents never caring if I die in the process due to the lurking dangers of the weather and the different competition we have.

Now I'm only the assistant to my airhead C.E.O. sister,Margaret. Whereas I will leave for U.K. for 6 months to supervise our branches there, she stays in New York to party and waste our company's money and dad`s money buying nonessential things.

I don't even wonder why the company almost got bankrupt for the last 5 years. Sabrina and Margaret always go on vacations whenever they want, wherever they want. Even if dad has a tight schedule, he'll always find time to bond with his family and that always excludes me.

And dad always lets them satisfy their wants. Dad bought Sabrina a couple of houses all around the world. Margaret buys anything she fancies. It would be very much easier if she knew how to be financially wise. She has a collection of expensive wrecked cars since she was a horrible driver.

My phone vibrates in my pocket while I'm driving, bursting me out of the bubble so I turned my earpods on

," Yes?"

Not bothering to take a look at the caller's ID.

"Honey? Are you on the way?"

Oh, it's my mom.

We have secretly contacted each other for the past 5 years, since my mom was allowed to visit me twice a year. On her birthday and on mine. I'd be fortunate if I got high grades because that would be one reason for her to arrive, since dad is always busy with the company and his new family. My mom is there to attend and give me my awards during recognition programs.

" Yeah. Mom I'm already at the airport. I'll be there in a few hours. Please don't wait for me," said pleading that she'll listen to me since I'm expecting to reach there 8:00 p.m. U.S time and that will be 1:00 a.m. U.K. time so she'll be exhausted if she wait for me.

"No sweety I'll meet you at the airport", oh yeah that's what I'm talking about.

If you ever wonder where did my stubbornness came from,then you could blame my mom.

"No, please mom. You'll still need to get up early tomorrow, you know. And besides I am very capable of coming there myself, you're treating me like a child from the nursery."

"Of course you're my only baby and times like this are very few they could be counted in my fingers.But honey please agree if I send your step-brother to fetch you..."

I suddenly cut her off..'' No. You don't need to disturb him. I could..."

And she wanted the stage all to herself , " Jolina,honey, it will give me ease of mind if someone I could trust will fetch you " she counters.

"He's trustworthy to you while he's stranger to me."

''But he's family''

''only to you.alright.he's no more than a stranger to me''

Well that's true. Even if mom and uncle Carlos are married for nearly 14 years since they married when I was 7, only both of them visit me because dad never allowed me to leave and they never brought Nathaniel,uncle Carlos' son, here. They always tell me stories about him but I never felt the urge to even get acquainted to him.

It's either he's too busy for his own good or he simply don't want to meet me. But I don't mind since I really don't like having friends or socialization for that matter.

" Jo, are you still there?"

That brought me out of my bubble.

"Um.yeah mom, what are you saying again?"

"I already told him and he agreed. That's final baby,okay? He's trustworthy for me and soon you too will find him trustworthy . Bye..."

WHAT? she hanged up. Uh...God why does she have to be as stubborn as me. I don't even know that guy less see what he looks like

.......

"Passengers of Flight? flight? 2451 heading for London, the Plane will depart in 5 minutes..."

This is it. Mom I'm coming

.......

After several hours of sitting we've finally landed.

Gosh. I'll definitely not wait for Nathaniel to come get me here.

Mom I'll show you I can be independent, this is the girl they've been sending to different business ventures.

Not thinking twice I ordered a cab.

"Miss...", as I turned I faced a tall,nice looking guy wearing a blue suit like the ocean emphasizing those hypnotic blue eyes.

"Yes, are you the cab driver?", eyeing him curiously, that's unusual,the cab says it will be here after? 10 minutes.

I looked at my wrist watch, it says only 3 minutes had passed. Are they really fast on service here and they wear formal attires?

"No, do I like a cab driver to you?"

I Noticed he clenched his jaw and the irritation in his voice "Never mind about that I didn't know you're this dense.''he murmured the last word but I still heard it.

Dense? Who does he think he is?

''I'm sorry but I don't have time to talk to you. My time is too precious. Please excuse yourself and get out of my face''

The look on the man's face gets angrier

'' Miss could you just tell ..."

'' What is your problem mister? I believe a cab? driver is what I'm looking for, not a lawyer and unless you are the cab driver I don't have a business with you", I said snapping at him.

Well I'm really not good in socializing and I thought it's better that way because if you are always kind, they might abuse it and use it to their advantage.

'' I don't have time for this. This silly and stupid antics only a three year old could pull off''

What.Did.He. Say? But before I could tell him my thoughts he crosses the distance between us.

Then he reaches for his phone.He taps a few buttons then looks at me again then "Yep, you're Jolina and you're coming with me.''

Then he grabs my hand, carries my baggage and drags me with him.

NO. NO. It's too late till I revalized that, what he looked at his phone is my picture and he is confirming my identity and he is k*dnapping me!!!

"HELP..hmp m"

He snaked his hand behind my neck to cover my mouth and stick me dangerously very close to him to the point that I am almost all over him I can smell his scent.

"GOD, I didn't know you're this violent. I was expecting a stubborn lady and not a lunatic girl.tss"?

I looked around but there are only few people because it's already late and he made me look like I was his lover who can't keep her hands to herself because of the way I push my hands against his hard body while trying to break myself free and he doesn't even move away for even an inch..uh...why is he unaffected?, am I that weak?

Be thankful you're covering my mouth or else you'd be in jail by now. But that only came out as "hm thmfl hmm hhhhmmm hhmm hm mm hm hmnn!!!"

Gosh, now I know the feeling of those girls in the movies when they get k*dnapped.

"Stop struggling or else i'll have to tie you up when we reach my car''

isn't that normal when you k*dnap someone? Why?

Does he think the weight of crimes he committed will lessen if he doesn't tie me up.

NO. WAY. I tried to wriggle my way outof his grasp but he is too strong. But as the stubborn lady I am, I tried again then I stepped on his foot with my high heels.

Thank you so much
