Taming A Billionaire

Chapter Fourty - one : Kim's Mom

Maya's POV

I felt like someone literally fed me vinegar, my mood turned sour immediately.I tried to slow down my beating heart, the last time Kim called me, I was drugged and almost raped had it not been for Nik's timely rescue.

I cut the call and added her number to my blacklist. What in the world does she want with me ? I already made it obvious from the start that I have no say in matters concerning Nik's business.

Yes, Nik was beginning to warm-up to me and though we just started dating, I knew when to draw the borderline. I wasn't going to play nepotism with some contract I wasn't even sure their company was worthy of receiving.

I sighed, why won't they let me rest? I already left their residence years ago and yes, I'm thankful to them for raising me- it's their responsibility anyway, but I wanted nothing to do with them.

Pushing Kim's matter to the back of my mind, I decided to concentrate on the task at hand. After everyone's departure, I discovered my place was a very untidy mess so I decided to clean up.

By the time I was through with my lazy cleanup it was already mid-afternoon, so I took a refreshing bath and decided to go stock up my literally empty fridge.

Even though I hate cooking but the Spencer's intrusion today taught me to be prepared at all times.

Once I was out of my apartment, I hardly stepped out of my street when a car suddenly swerve to a stop right in front of me.

Before I could tell what was going on, two good-looking men in black suits and black glasses with a Retevis 2 Pin Walkie Talkie Earpiece?secured to the back of their ear stepped out of the car.

Whoah , I was stunned. Were they shooting a spy movie nearby?

But the moment I realized this was no cosplay and I was their target, I turned to flee but my little feet hardly took a step before I was grabbed and lifted off the ground as if I weighed nothing.

One of the handsome unfriendly men tossed me over his shoulder while I squirmed around, screaming my lungs out for help.

Unfortunately as if everything was working against me, there was nobody in sight save playing kids whom were now watching the unfolding scene with interest.

The man ended up dumping me inside the car unceremoniously like a sack of potatoes.

"Ouch " I cried out in pain massaging my poor butt. *Sob*sob* how could this handsome face be so cruel ?

Immediately the two men swiftly got into the car before I could think of escaping and was sandwiched between two stiffly looking, unsmiling eye candies.

I would've struggled with them but I felt something was off. They didn't try to gag me, nor blindfold, nor try to drug me like normal kidnappers would do , but merely wanted me inside their car. And it can't be a coincidence this happened just a few hours ago of snubbing Kim's calls .

My fist curled, Kim's parents.

" Kim's parents sent you, didn't they? " I tried to confirm from the horse's mouth but non of them answered instead they rigidly stared into the distance like statues.

Oi, what's wrong with this people? I wondered. Why aren't this people fun to stay with at all ? Nobody's watching so why do they appear so strict and catatonic? Their blank face was so stressed and unnatural to the extent it actually looked like they were in pain.

I should be the one with such look not the other way around! I wailed internally.Beside, why look so miserable when they were the ones who kidnapped an innocent victim?

Throughout the ride, the silence was so depressing that I gripped my hair and just wanted to scream out my frustrations but thankfully, we arrived our destination before my outburst.

Once we arrived the all too familiar villa, Mr Handsome Rough Hands tried to drag me mercilessly out of the car but I cursed and punched at him - sadly, they never reached his face, he was a lot taller and skilfully avoided them.

But I didn't give up, no-one mistreats me and goes scot free. I finally managed to throw a blow which caught him on the side of his mouth and his lips began to bleed.

A satisfied grin plastered my face but it seemed to have agitated him cause he released a feral growl and tried to reach for me but a warning from his other comrade halted his progress.

"Easy on the young miss " The guy who did the driving said but Mr HRH simply sneered and grabbed my waist amidst my protest and threw me roughly over his shoulder, again.

Who said this position was romantic?

I moaned in pain when my stomach impacted on his hard shoulder . What was this guy made of - rocks?

I knew he was torturing me cause he didn't slow down through out the bumpy ride until I found myself in the living room where the whole family was assembled already.

This time, he let me down gently unlike the previous time and did a simple bow to my family who nodded in response and left.

I turned to leave but was blocked by the other bodyguard, so I gritted my teeth in frustration and was forced to face my family.

"Is that how you greet your family you haven't met in years! " The so-called dad roared as soon as he saw the contempt in my eyes.

"Family? " I scoffed " How amusing "

"Yo-you! " He tried to speak but Kim's mom was quick to interfere.

"Darling, remember your health " She reminded him tenderly "Also, Maya just arrived, you don't have to be so hard on her " She added and my eyes flew open.

When did Kim's mother become such a good actress?

"Yes daddy, mom's right. Maya must be stressed out from the journey " Kim contributed this time and I felt the urge to throw up, their act was so sickening.

I stared at the drama going on and thanked God I looked nothing like them.

Kim was an exact photocopy of her mom except she took her father's eyes. She had same long dark hair, height and mannerism, infact they could be mistaken as sisters once out in the public , since her mom takes good care of her skin.

It was quite funny since Kim took her father's gray eyes while I took exactly her mom's black eyes. That was the only thing I know reminds me of her whenever I look into the mirror.

"Sister " Kim called destroying my thoughts . She approached me, moved to take my hand and though I felt the urge to tear my hand away, I decided to go along with her facade.

"I'm sorry for the words I said to you that day" She apologized with this sincere gaze that would've fooled me too if not for the fact I knew this was all an act.

I tried to speak but she put in

"But how could you say you won't help us ? the company ? when you're in the right position to do so?" She asked leaving me stunned.

My jaw tightened and I glared at her.

"That will be discussed over dinner " Kim's mom announced and I inhaled sharply, this people were not going to let me be.
