The Cherished Wife



"Oh, you're Mrs. Sabian!" Lareal smiled, but then said firmly, "I'm sorry, but even if Mr. Sabian was here himself, he wouldn't be able to leave either!" Yessica's heart sank as she realized how serious things were. She looked around for Noelle but could not find her. "Sir, we only came to have fun at the party. We don't even know what went wrong. Making a big deal out of this isn't good for anyone, and there are so many of us here."

"Take her away!" Lareal interrupted Yessica, his smile gone. "Mrs. Sabian, you might not know The Majestic Lounge's rules. Anyone who makes trouble here won't see tomorrow's sun."

Lareal's piercing gaze swept over everyone as she spoke with chilling calm, "And it's not just you. No one is leaving The Majestic Lounge until I say so!"

"Ahh! How could this happen?"

"Yeah, how can they do this?"

"It's all Noelle's fault for going to the bathroom when she didn't need to. She must have ticked someone off!"

"Talk about bad luck, ending up in a situation like this..."

"Take them away!" Lareal ordered, his face turning stormy. He respected Noelle, and these folks had gotten her hurt. Then, they even had the nerve to blame her?

Everyone knew Charles did not have patience for such people.

Charles's way of handling things was way beyond just keeping them there.

Lareal's men escorted the group to the second floor, where they were then trapped. Men in black stood guard at every door and window, leaving no chance of escape.

Annie was freaked out by the whole situation and clung to Winter's hand. She was probably feeling guilty. "Winter, what do we do now?" "Let go of me!" Winter snapped, giving Annie a fierce look. "Keep it together. We're not in trouble yet. What are you scared of?"

Winter eyed Annie, who looked defeated. "What did you do, anyway? I told you not to cause trouble."

"I..." Annie's eyes filled with tears, but seeing Winter's face, she held them back. "I just couldn't stand to see her picking on you."

"Really? I bet you just can't stand

Noelle! Winter did not want Annie to get her into trouble. "And what about The Majestic Lounge? You know you shouldn't be causing trouble here!"

"Let's drop it, okay?" Suzy glanced at Winter and Annie with a warning look. "We're being watched."

Winter and Annie quickly scanned the room and realized the men in black were not just blocking the routes. They were keeping a close eye on them, too.

Yessica was pacing nervously, unable to stay still. She glanced at her classmates and finally approached Lareal. "Sir, it's not right to keep us locked up here. Can I... Can I call my husband?"

Lareal gave her a sly smile and gestured for her to proceed. "Of course, Mrs. Sabian. You and all your friends are free to make a call. But just so you know, your family and friends can come to find you, but once they're in here, leaving won't be so simple!"

Yessica paused, unsure, but she finally dialed Spencer's number. The others started calling their families, too.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

by the men in black to a room. Noelle had been bitten by a snake so she was groggy and barely conscious. Rowena and Teresa frantically looked for water and towels to help cool her down.
