Next week Baji and I were off to Singapore to see the kids and my dad, Well that flight wasn't the best due to the rain and the turbulence. Baji wasnt a fan of it at all , but we landed at the Airport and there was already a car ready to come and pick us up since it was a private Airport.
The butler James, opened the door and Baji and I got in and started snoring the ride wasn't long since i place the Mansion near town and an international school, we got out of the car and i knocked on the door just to surprise the kids and James brought out the luggages filled with treats from Paris , France .
The kids opened the door and were shocked to see me and Baji standing there.
" MOMMY! UNCLE BAJI!" Kids yelled and jumped onto us tackling us to the ground
"Stella , how was the flight?" Dad asked and helped James bring in the luggage.
"Flight was horrendous turbulence everywhere"
Baji and I Sat on the couch and watched the kids open their presents from Paris and started kissing me and Baji on the cheek, then I took out my wallet and handed my dad a cheque of 2.5 million dollars.
"What's this for?" Dad asks
"You guys might be staying here for a longer period of time, and I will give you guys 2.5 million each year, so buy your food, school needs , clothes, everything alright."
"Stella , have you forgotten, your father used to be a multimillionaire i am certain that i can afford all of that for the kids" dad said and handed me the cheque
"Dad, you're looking after my kids , I don't want you to stress over money, so just take the money and put it in the Bank use it when you need it . Things may be cheaper over here in Singapore but as time goes on you'll find things to be more expensive alright."
I handed him back the check and he still refuses to take it. I immediately took out my phone and transferred 2.5 million into my dad's account and tore away the cheque , he let out a sigh
"There's no end if I were to transfer you back the money right ?" Dad laughed slightly and shook his head
"Nope , there isn't so take it you'll need it . plus you are my last line of defence if i ever go bankrupt"
"Stella , let's talk. You too Baji '' Dad said and we followed him up to the study on the second floor,
Everyone took a chair and sat down , while the kids were busy searching for more presents in the luggages.
"Stella, how long is this fight going to last?" Dad sounds really concerned , and I understand that he spent his whole life in France and it would be weird to suddenly move to another country.
"Dad, I cannot promise you anything regarding the war I am going through now but please believe me staying here is safer than being in France right now."
"Stella, why don't you go look for Damien and settle things quietly." dad said and drank his tea
"Dad if only it was that simple …. "
"Mr Wong , Damien isn't the mastermind here. " Baji said and took my hand
"Dad, we believe there is someone behind Damien , like his real parents could be the one doing all of this, so while I and the boys are investigating this matter I hope you can understand I'm doing this for your and my kids' safety. "
"I understand stella , but really-" Dad was cut off by James barging in huffing and puffing away
"Ms Wong, the front door. Hurry!"
I quickly ran downstairs and instructed James to take the kids to the study while Baji and i ran to the front door to check what is going on , we went to the front door and saw 2 men kneeling on the ground with their heads covered with a black cover and 5 men behind them , 2 holding a knife at each of their necks and the other 3 standing at the back .
"What do you want?"
"Ms Wong? Isn't it? Well Our boss wants to hand you a little present" The guy among the 3 that was standing at the back spoke up and removed the cloth of the guys head
Revealing it was Noel and Westly , beaten up to a pulp even Noel's glasses were slanted and broken
"Stella!" Both of them cried out my name. My heart broke when I saw them like that.
"What do you want" Baji asked them
" We don't need your money, we just want you to surrender yourself to Mr Lim and his corporation, that's all if not your 2 friends here will die on your grounds." the middle man said
I looked at Baji and Please tell me he read my mind because I am not going to let this plan fail on me.
"Let me discuss with my partner " I turned to Baji and looked at him. And whispered in his ear.
"My gun is in my bag and we can't use guns in Singapore so we have to beaten them up by hand and we cannot get the police involved as well on my count we attack and save them "
I turned around and faced them again looking at Noel and Wen again i took in a deep breath and raised both my hands in the air and Kneeled down
" alright, I surrender"
"NOO! STELLA! " Both Noel and Westly screamed at me
I lowered my head and let the guys come towards me, when the 3 men were behind me i nodded my head towards Baji and he dashed acrossed to help the 2 poor souls while i took matters into my own hands and starting fighting
The fight ended with me getting a bloody wound and 5 knocked out men on the ground. I called Rin and Shane. Hopefully they are not asleep yet.
Phone call ;
Rin: Boss, How is Singapore?
Me: Bad News, I was under attack.
Rin: WHAT!
Me: DON'T TELL DRAKEN HE WILL FREAK OUT. I want you both to quietly leave the house, pack your luggage , and get on the next flight to Singapore now.
Shane: Yess boss on our way!
Rin: Yes boss , Shane be quite
Ends the call.
"Well the boys will be here in a day , Baji lets round them up and throw them into the room "
I told James to help me get Noel and Westly comfortable and treat their wounds while Baji and I rounded up the men and toss them into the storeroom to sleep .
The kids were upstairs with my dad and James had already helped Noel and Westly clean up their wounds and served us tea and cookies and leave us alone.
"First of all-"
"Stella , where is Sebastian?" Noel asked
"He's in France with my guards , why ?"
" Sebastian's wife is sorta … " Westly stammered
"What's with his wife?"
"His wife is dead" Westly managed to blurted out the remaining words of his previous sentence and lowered his head
"Okay, surely he will know sooner or later. But I need to know how you guys get here, I tried tracking both of you and it led me to nowhere. But you guys are here"
"I moved here after 2 years living in HongKong, a better life for my wife and kids." Noel said
" I moved after 5 years and was looking for Noel before i knew it some guys were asking for you and we said we used to work together" Westly replied
"I see… "
"What is going on Stella, why are you here in Singapore?" Noel asked
"Well , James. . . bring the kids down. "
"Yes boss" James said and went upstairs and got the kids to come down and sat in between me and Baji.
"Well, these are my kids to the guy that is trying to take over my market shares and power . Lumine and Chris, my twins . Kids these are Uncle Noel , Uncle Westly mommy's friends from HongKong "
"Uncle Noel , Uncle Westly" my kids called them and fiddled with their fingers
"Omg when did you?" Westly
"7-8 years ago… " i lowered my hand on to my lap and
"Stella oh.. It was his" Noel said.
"Kids why don't you go and play in your room , i'll bring you out tomorrow"
"Okay Mommy, can Uncle Baji come with us too?" Chris asks
"Alright , Uncle Baji is coming after you " Baji got up and started chasing the kids up the stairs
"Baji is ? " Westly asked.
"He was my bodyguard , we fell in love and we are attached"
"Noel , I'm heart broken," Westly cried.
"Please do not tell me … " Noel sighed and comforted Westly
While I, on the other hand, remembered what happened when i was in HongKong working together with them.
*Flashback*
"Dragon Lemur! This is Dragon Controls , mind coming out in the open for a while?" Westly called me over the radio whole i was in the office doing the paperwork
"Dragon Lemur coming out , i need your location" i called Westly over the radio
"Back of house " Westly said
I got up my shit and realise everyone is not in the office like they were suppose to , i put down my paperwork and got our and walked out the office and back of house and to a certain surprise there were flowers on the road, balloons everywhere and a board that literally Sebastian holding a board that says
"Stella , Will you be Mine"
Westly holding up a bouquet of flowers kneeling down , oh my god…
*End of Flashback*
"Westly , it's been almost 10 years please" Noel pleaded Westly to get off
" Well , I am still amazed that after all these years you never let your feelings for me go … "
"Stella i freaking love you, like up till now" Westly cried and i handed him the tissue box.
"Well that's good to know but sadly , i am a mother of 2 and i don't think you'll be able to accept that either so can we get a move on this conversation. "
"So why were we kidnapped and brought to you ?" Noel asked.
"Well you have been in contact with me and the only way Damien has known would be my past… which was rather weird. My boys will be here 2 days from now so i think we can leave it to them, but in the meantime make yourselves at home if you have any queries ask James my Household head in Singapore"
My phone rang and it was my dad, i excused myself and went upstairs to look for him and found him standing at the window in the study room , i knocked on the door to get his attention and he place his tea cup on the desk and told me to seat
"What's wrong?"
"Well this is going to be unsettling news… " my dad said lowering his head holding in his tears
"Your Aunt Molly died, in the hospital " my dad said
"No can't be , she was so healthy and the last time we saw her was at the funeral"
"According to your aunt Grace, she was in a heated argument with her husband wanting to file for divorce and he ended up killing her , even though she made it to the hospital she did not make it." my dad explained.
"Are we able to sue that guy for killing Aunt Molly?"
"No, but we can stand in court telling them how bad of a husband he is from what my understanding of the law, didn't you go to law school? " my dad said
" Dad, I studied Business law , not Criminal law. But okay let's fly to Shanghai and give our statements to the court and make sure this guy gets a death sentence. "
"What about the kids?" it's their holiday period, we can't possibly fly them to Shanghai with us as well." Dad was worried.
"Her funeral won't be able to be held until the guy goes to Jail. And when i assume someone will call us soon we have to fly to Shanghai immediately "
"Alright lets wait for the call. . ." Dad sighed and slumped back on the chair
" Dad , did you regret not talking to her ? after that heated argument?"
"I do.. But I understand why she is upset with me but we both are very successful people but she should have understand from my point of view. . . " dad replied
"What was the argument about tho ? "
"You… having kids and being a single mother. " he said
"Son of a bitch , what's her issue! "
" You have a reputation and it's bad because of her being a single mother." my dad said and tossed me his phone with the chat record
I read through everything and was in disbelief . . .
"Dad there are loads of Single mothers out there struggling out there alone and terrified. That's why my company has a support team to help Single mothers. Even if I myself am a single mother, what does she have? No kids? A step mother to 4 of her husband's ex-wife's kids ."
"Stella, don't say that about her… you should know better" dad tries to calm me down but aint working
"Why don't I just sue him and his kids? "
"Stella you are not thinking straight now " Dad pulled the bell connected to my room and Baji came running in and panicked half naked
"Whats going on " Baji asked while
"Your Wife is going insane" Dad said.
"My wife?" baji eyes widen open , "So does that mean i can call you dad" asks again
"No , you are not married to my daughter yet so , no but calm your girlfriend down" Dad got annoyed
"All i said was i might sue my aunt's step kids."
"Why are you suing your aunt's kids?" Baji questioned me
"I am simply , sorry honey uhm.. Aunty Molly died ."
"Should we fly to her funeral's location? Should we fly to where " Baji asks
"We are not flying until her body is handed over to us , she lives in Shanghai , but the body will be deported back to Paris since majority of our family lives in Paris besides i haven't heard any Shanghai authority calling me to go over to talk things out in court so i don't really need to go over and Rin and Shane are coming over so i can't go anywhere either. "
"WHAT?! RIN AND SHANE ARE COMING OVER?!" Baji exclaimed , i simply nodded my head and when i turned around i saw Lumine and Chris standing by the door
"Mommy is Uncle Rin coming too! " she was very excited
"Honey, I thought you loved uncle Matt ? "
"I love all of them , it's so lonely here in Singapore… '' Chris mumbled
" I know it gets lonely here in Singapore but its for your own safely okay so why dont you guys go get your showers and i will bring everyone out for dinner , how does that sound?"
"OKAI!" Both kids exclaimed and dashed out the room and god know where they went
Dad, Baji and I continued to discuss matters at hand and just called it quits first until we are certain that me and my dad have to fly to Shanghai , we will remain here in Singapore.
