Entangled With The CEO Brothers

Laura’s POV 98



“Cash?” I mentally thumped.

Where was I going to find that kind of cash!

The person on the other end was about to hang up the phone and I yelled, “Wait!”

“What’s wrong?”

“I …” I licked my lips, “I need to hear Sunny’s voice.”

Holly is silent, for a moment, she laughs softly, “Your daughter is asleep. Don’t worry, she’s fine.”

“You let me hear her voice!” I was almost hysterical.

“Are you going to wake her up?” Holly’s voice trembled, “Laura, although I used to have bad thoughts about you and want to get you both mother and daughter killed, now …”

“Anyway, now I’m not so inhuman.” She said, “All I want is the money! You have three days, Laura, to get the money together and get it to me! And no police!”

“In these three days, I will take good care of your child, she won’t starve and freeze … but after three days I don’t get what I want, you and this child of yours … are all going to die for me!”

I was afraid of provoking her, holding the phone the atmosphere did not dare to breathe. Until she hung up the phone, my hands are still involuntarily shaking, my palms a layer of cold sweat.

“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Patrick comforted me.

The police started to deploy the operation, the people in the Major Crime Unit were Patrick’s former colleagues and worked very well together. The police team told me that they had utilized advanced technology to locate and track the suspect, and would definitely ensure the safety of the child.

“But she wants fifty million … dollars,” I panicked, “I have to at least get enough money together to go meet with her! It’s only three days, where am I going to get fifty million dollars in cash!”

Patrick sighed softly and asked tentatively, “What about Carter? The Lynch Family… can help you?”

Being reminded by him, I thought that this was really a solution.

Even if I messed up with The Lynch Family, Ethan, Mellisa, they are after all my real parents, Carter is my brother, and Sunny is also related to them by blood! They wouldn’t just stand by and watch Sunny being kidnapped, would they?

However reality slapped me in the face.

I went back to The Lynch Family and explained everything, and I was so close to kneeling down to them … In fact, if I could beg for 50 million dollars by kneeling down, it wouldn’t have mattered if I had kowtowed on my knees.

But their reply to me was that they didn’t care about this matter.

Ethan look indifferent, not waiting for me to finish on the study room to close the door. Mellisa quite anxious, but she can not help, and she does not want to disobey Ethan’s will.

They all went to their rooms and I sat in the living room. The large The Lynch Family, not a single person was willing to help me, even my real parents had an attitude colder than ice at such a critical moment.

“Forget it, you’re not going to get any money from here.” Suddenly someone tapped me on the shoulder.

Carter stood in front of me, looking at me with a smile on his face, his face somewhat grim.

“Know what mom and dad think?” He sat down and laughed softly, “Sunny the little one, after all, is Cameron’s child, and you and Cameron’s relationship …”

I don’t say anything, I just look at him quietly.

“Your relationship with Cameron is just too much to see!” Carter grinned. “You have to call him your brother, and it’s a shame for The Lynch Family to have a child between siblings. Mom and Dad hated that child so much they couldn’t wait for her to disappear from the world, how could they possibly come up with the money to pay for her to be there?”

“Carter!” I snapped, the blood rushing to my head.

Yeah, he was right. To them, Sunny was a disgrace to The Lynch Family. They couldn’t wait for Sunny to never come back.

I sneered, “To you … The Lynch Family’s honor is always more important than blood kinship, right?”

He just smiles and doesn’t say anything.

“Hypocritical.” I laughed, “What a family of hypocrites. The reputation of The Lynch Family was completely ruined by their previous generation a long time ago! How is it that I bleed the same blood as you all?”

I ran out of The Lynch Family, and instead of getting a penny, I was completely chilled out of the family.

But the deadline Holly had given me was coming up.

I felt like I was cooking on fire those days, and the anxiety and impatience was like a branding iron on my heart. Time passed by, my despair increased by the second, I dare not imagine if I did not hand over 50 million as scheduled, Sunny will have what happened.

I borrowed all the people I could, I even wanted to sell the company, but it was all too far to put out the fire. Just when I was going crazy with anxiety, Patrick suddenly came to me with a color of excitement on his face.

“Come with me, Laura!” he said, pulling me along.

“Where to?”

“Sunny will be saved!”

The place he took me to turned out to be the same apartment Cameron had given me before.

I winced a little as soon as I got to the door and stood still. I looked at him in horror, wondering what he was trying to pull again. Patrick froze, then said, “Laura, you have to trust me!”

“What the hell happened?”

“Come in and see for yourself!”

Patrick knocked on the door and the person who came to answer it turned out to be Cameron!

The two men met and smiled at each other, it looked like all the grudges that had been settled had been erased. Patrick let me into the house, a place that was both familiar and unfamiliar to me, filled with memories entwined with sweetness and pain.

“I heard something happened to your daughter.” Cameron asked in a deep voice, “Holly did it?”

I nodded woodenly.

“I can pay you.” He said.

I looked up at him. It felt then as if I was walking in the middle of a darkness and suddenly caught a light.

“You?” I couldn’t believe it, “Why would you help me?”

“Laura, let’s not talk about this.” Patrick pressed my shoulder and sat down, “Saving Sunny is important right now.”

Cameron’s face was cool, still with a rigid look in his eyes. He looked at me, and that glance, though cold, gave me immense peace of mind. “Fifty million dollars, I’ll prepare it.”

My tears immediately came out of my eyes.

“Alright, don’t cry!” He frowned and seemed to have a somewhat disgusted tone, “Your daughter is in the hands of a mom like you, doing things without considering the consequences, and knowing how to cry when things go wrong, it’s also really unlucky enough!”

I stopped my voice, at that moment time seems to go back to many years ago. At that time we are small, I have been to Cameron trouble, just then I do not think that it is trouble … Cameron always mouth to blame me, but silently bear all the consequences. It turns out that since childhood, those shoulders have always been for me to block the wind and rain.

Cameron and Patrick discussed it until most of the night. I drifted off to sleep, the first time in three days I had slept this long. I woke up early in the morning to find myself lying in my bedroom, covered in Cameron’s jacket.

The faint smell of tobacco jolted a certain frayed nerve in me.

Cameron was lying on the living room couch, curled up and snoring slightly. He hasn’t changed a bit from the way he fell asleep, frowning as if he’s defensive of the whole world.

I gently walked over to him and involuntarily reached out to touch his brow. I didn’t expect to wake him up, he suddenly opened his eyes, and when he and I looked at each other, there was a corner of my heart that seemed to collapse.

“Something wrong?”

In the middle of the day, he asked in a low voice.

There was a haze underneath his eyes, like melting ice.

I retracted my hand violently, my cheeks burning a little.

“It’s fine.” I hesitated and said softly, “Cameron … thank you.”

“No need.”

Without additional words, he stood up and headed for the restroom. Ten minutes later Patrick was up as well, and the two of them briefly ate breakfast, exchanged glances, and picked up a suitcase in the corner to head out the door.

“Laura, come here!” Patrick waved at me and explained, “When we get to the place we agreed with Holly, you take this box. No matter what, let Sunny come back safely first. I have already deployed, when the time comes, don’t worry, pick up Sunny and hurry to run back … The rest of the matter, leave it to me and Cameron.”

Cameron? I was stunned, “You also want to follow?”

Cameron didn’t say anything, Patrick nodded gently to me.

I didn’t understand why he was going along.

Later, Patrick told me that Cameron strongly requested to follow him because he was uneasy.

Luckily, Holly had called two social thugs, and when I gave her the money, she played a scoundrel, trying to withhold the money and then Sunny. just in the nick of time, Cameron suddenly rushed out, punched one of the thugs in the nose, and rescued Sunny.

Immediately after that, gunshots were fired and sirens surrounded the old warehouse tightly. The police control everything here, the sound of fighting heckling makes the air more depressing … Not long after Holly was brought out, the handcuffs on her wrists in the setting sun, flashing blindingly.

I held Sunny tightly. She was in shock and cried out, and I couldn t coax her. I was scared to death too, my hands were shaking as I held her, kissing her little face, her cheeks were cold and heartbreaking.

“Give me the baby.” Suddenly a large hand reached out.

Cameron was still frowning, but his gaze was considerably gentler.

“Give me the baby!” He aggravates his tone.

I handed the baby over to him, and was inevitably disliked again, “You just know how to cry! You can’t even coax your own child, how can you be a mother?”

I lowered my head and didn’t say anything. Strangely enough, Sunny stopped crying in his hands and stared at him with big, dark eyes, and a smile finally appeared on his little red face.

Cameron is quite good at coaxing children. When we got back to the apartment, he still wouldn’t let go of the baby, and Sunny fell asleep in his arms, so I tugged on his shirt and whispered to him, “Put the baby on the cot, it’s too tiring to hold him.”

“Shhh!” He glared at me, surprising me by stopping me, “Don’t disturb her!”

I saw this big man with a sleeping baby in his arms, tiptoeing into the inner bedroom, easing onto the couch in the slowest of motions, his big hands patting gently and his mouth mumbling something.

I watched from afar as he smiled at her, perhaps not even realizing how warm his smile was at that moment.

My heart fluttered.

That’s pretty gentle for his little lover from a previous life …Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

For the next few days, Cameron was here to take care of us. He took it upon himself to give Yasmin a vacation so that Yasmin could rest, and then he came to take care of Sunny and I’s food and living.

I have mixed feelings about being under the same roof with him again after such a long time. It all seems like a dream, but this dream is so real that it makes me stay.

I don’t know if this person has a split personality, but when he is with me, he always has a cold face, but when he sees Sunny, he immediately changes his face and puts on a gentle smile.

Sunny is a particularly sticky child, seven or eight hours a day have to hold, and Cameron’s violent temper was suddenly cured by this little man, no matter where you go to where to hold, even when he was cooking in the kitchen, but also a spatula in one hand, one hand holding the baby, frying action amplitude exaggeration, amusing Sunny giggle non-stop.

Sunny also likes to follow him, as if with Cameron, it doesn’t matter whether I am there or not. I once said half-jokingly, “Is it true that I will only be responsible for breastfeeding from now on, and I can leave everything else to you?”

Cameron glanced at me, “You can stop breastfeeding too, we have formula.”

“…”

“I kind of like the baby.” He whispered, “It would be better if she wasn’t Carter’s daughter.”

My heart tightened.

“Laura,” he raised his eyes to mine, his gaze a little suspicious, “is she … really your and Carter’s daughter?”

I didn’t know what to say, I almost wanted to tell him what Sunny really was, but I swallowed back the words as they came out of my mouth.

I couldn’t foresee what would happen if I told him, The Lynch Family wouldn’t tolerate this child, and Cameron might snatch Sunny away from him if he knew it was his own flesh and blood.

I can tolerate anything, but I can’t tolerate being separated from Sunny.

Cameron narrowed his eyes and stepped closer to me, “The father of this child, it’s not Carter, is it?”

“Don’t you ask.” I lowered my head.

“Whose kid is this?”

“I told you to stop asking, don’t you understand?” I yelled at him, “She’s no one’s child, she’s my daughter and mine alone!”

“What are you talking about Laura?” sneered Cameron, “You can have it alone without a man?”

“Then think of me …” I gulped, “as if I had sex with someone else. I’m long gone in your eyes anyway!”

“Laura!” violently he pinched my shoulder.

For the first time in days, I saw something other than coldness in his eyes. It was like two fires were burning in his eyes as he glared at me in anger, his lips trembling slightly.

“I’m going to ask you one last time.” He sank his voice, “Who is the father of this child, really?”

“I don’t know.”

I tilted my head to the side, and in my afterglow I saw his hand raised high in the air. His hand stays in the air for a long moment, but doesn’t fall.

Sunny cried out from the cot.

Cameron rushed over, skillfully picked her up, gently patted her back, and patiently coaxed her. My eyes instantly moist, “Cameron …” I bit my lip, “Do you like Sunny?”

He frowned and didn’t say anything.

“She’s not Carter’s daughter.” I whisper, “Don’t worry, I’m not going to give him a child.”

“Even if you wanted to have a baby, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be your turn.” He doesn’t even look at me.

“Laura, have you forgotten what I told you before?” He said, “I said, you can only have my child … your whole life, you can only give me a child!”

Then does he know that from now on, I can only call him a brother?

I smiled bitterly, watching him put Sunny back in the crib, coaxing him for a while, he signaled me to go out, gently bringing the door to the room with him.

“You’ve got absolutely nothing to do with Carter anymore, do you?” He asked me.

“Do you expect me to have anything to do with him anymore?”

“It’s best if there isn’t.” He sneered, “Tell him to be careful, he’ll pay for what he once did and I won’t spare anyone who hurts me! Including you, Laura!”
