Chapter 48: Is that considered stalking?

The following day, Kai drove himself to work, that was because he had instructed his assistant, Alexis, to do something for him. Thus, he couldn't wait for him because he would definitely be late for work. He was a punctual person after all. He was focused on driving until his gaze suddenly drifted past the flee of cars and landed on the figure that was limping slowly to school.

'Was she hurt that badly yesterday?' Kai asked himself inwardly. If that's the case, then that explains why her face was so contorted in pain yesterday. He didn't expect it to be that serious. However, he furrowed his brows when he saw her limping. Was she really that short of money? Otherwise, why would she torture herself? She knew very well that she was injured, yet she didn't care and insisted on not boarding a cab? When Kai realized that he was worrying too much ablut her, he almost slapped himself across the face. He just wanted her as his plaything, why would he feel pity for her ? Moreover, women were definitely enemies to him, how could he have the nerve to care about their goddamn businesses? Kai kept reminding himself that this Lomesa chic had nothing to do with him, he just wanted to have her, noting else, actually, no strings attached. However, even after reminding himself of that, he still subconsciously drive his car to follow her. Only after making sure that she had safely arrived to school did he change directions and went to his own company,. Well, was that considered stalking?

Fortunately, Lomesa never noticed that someone was following her, otherwise, she would have erupted on the spot and threatened to sue the person. The good thing was that Kai was good and hiding. He chose to hide until the day he would have a deliberate encounter with Lomesa. Maybe by then he could try to know her better?

Lomesa, who was busy humming a song as she went to class didn't know that someone was plotting on how to meet her. Anyway, she didn't care, she just wanted to study hard and exert her revenge, only then would she think about herself, after revenge that is. Even so, her whole future, she had not included anything to do with love. She didn't want to be a weakling again..She wanted to stand up on her own, she didn't want anyone to claim her. No one would ever be able to possess her. That was Lomesa's everyday mantra.

Overseas, it was only later in the day when Wendy woke up. She found herself on a bed that was unfamiliar. However, when the smell of medicine assaulted her nose trills, she came to a conclusion that she was in the school infirmary. She began recollecting her memories. Yesternight, she remembered having served punishment for being illegally using her phone, after that, she had dragged her sore and painful body to the dormitory. However, halfway through the journey, she couldn't hold on any longer and passed out. She didn't know if it was from pain or from the anaemia she had always suffered from. From there onwards, she didn't receive what happened.

"Miss, you're awake?" A nurse smiled when she saw Wendy sitting on the bed in a daze.She looked extremely adorable. She was beautiful to begin with, with her sleepy eyes adding to her charm, she could make people's hearts to melt into a puddle. Wendy herself didn't know the effect she had on people actually. She just knew that when they were young, Lomesa and her were the beauties of the city at that time, but too much time had passed, she didn't know if she held any title of beauty now.

"Yeah, what happened to me?" Wendy asked, her voice very hoarse, when the nurse detected the hoarseness in her voice, she immediately went to the side and poured her a glass of warm water . Wendy about to reach out to receive when the nurse pushed her down on the bed again. Wendy looked at her in confusion and then at herself, when she saw the drip that was connected to her hand and instantly understood the nurse's intentions. It seemed that she was afraid that Wendy would tear her skim in the process if she stretched her hand out even just for a bit, that was why she had pushed him to lie down back on the bed.

Wendy then used her other hand to receive the glass from the nurse. After drinking the glass of water, her throat immediately felt moisturised. Atleast she felt that she could finally speak like a normal person.

"When will I be discharged?" Wendy licked her lips and asked the nurse. After all, she had decided to study hard, that way, she could be allowed to go back home, she could not afford to slack off.

"After you finish your second drip, this is still the first. So I suggest you lie down first and rest." the nurse advised amiably.

Wendy sighed. did she even have a choice left?

She could only obediently lie down. Seeing this, the nurse was satisfied. She liked obedient people. Moreover, the patiebt was beautiful, how could the female nurse not be fond of her? Moreover, she was a face freak, how could she not appreciate someone as beautiful as Wendy?

Wendy nowadays had a weak body, coupled with her anaemic constitution, she felt asleep not long after her head hit the pillow. She immediately drifted off to sleep.

In Kai's company, Ian and Blake showed up looking refreshed. There were no traces of unruliness on their bodies. At the moment, the looked so serious. These two worked for Kai. They had their own companies, it's just that they were yet to inherit. The prerequisite of inheritance the company was that they get married first. No one between the two had the thought of getting married, thus, they decided to work for Kai till the day they came across their other halves. Only then would they be eligible to take over their family business. No one was in a hurry anyway.

In the evening, when it was time to hit off work, Kai drove his car after saying good bye to his two good friends. He immediately drove away. His heart was somewhat filled with anticipation. He didn't know exactky why but he figured that it was something good. The feeling wasn't bad. His assistant had yet tovreturn so of course, he could only drive himself..He didn't want yo die yet. After all, there were enemies all over the place. Who wouldn't feel wary, especially if they had a mission they had yet to complete?

When he reached the intersection, he stopped at the red light. He craned his neck to look out and see if he could see the figure that had kept disturbing his mind, however, this time, he was meant to be disappointed. Kai furrowed his brows when he didn't see Lomesa. Perhaps she had taken a cab this time ? At the thought of that, his heart instantly calmed down. He was glad that atleast she had grown and a brain and had decided to take a cab. After all, she had injured her foot, it was only natural that she would take a cab.

However, even though he was relieved,why did a psrt of his heart feel disappointed? He wanted to see her face after all..He didn't understand why that face, ugly as it could be, kept on popping up on his mind. He often wondered if he had Been bewitched. He knew he was just overthinking stuff. It's not like the girl had ever come across him for her to bewitch him. Only he knew of her existence. She didn't even know that someone with the name Kai existed in the country. That was true. After all, Kai had Been the most secretive person around..Everything about him was kept under wraps, no matter how much people tried digging up his information, they always ended up with nothing. That was why Lomesa had never come across such a name, not in her previous lifetime or the present . She had never ever heard of it. Thus, the problem only lay with Kai. He was too secretive, how was she supposed to be aware if his existence? Kai had long noticed this problem, that was why he had been looking for a chance to meet with her. However, he would never reveal his real identity. After all, he was going to discard her the moment he had his fill, why bother with the introductions?

It was true that Lomesa went home ina vehicle .However, it was Mr Baker's car.(Allison) . Lomesa didn't understand what went wrong, she just wanted to reduce her weight by taking a walk back . Who knew that the moment she got out of the gate, she would see Mr Baker leaning on his car hood while waiting for her? She had pretended not to have seen him, however, he had called her immediately.

"Yes sir?" Lomesa looked at him in confusion.

"Get in." Allison Said and entered the car without sparing her a glance.

Lomesa sighed.

Did she still have a choice?
