The Billionaire’s Son Chose Me!

Sharon handed the phone she was holding over to Charlotte who was seated in the midst of all these chaos..

It felt like everyone was on standstill contemplating their next move and the possible solution to this problem..

Arya took a step forward as the floor sank once more, Kyle reached out effortlessly to her arm as the chairs holding the two went up a little..

“Control yourself Arya! you’re endangering them more by going closer!” He yelled shaking her slightly, he got that she was concerned about Ray and her dad.. but she also needed to weigh the pros and cons of her actions..

“I can’t do that Kyle! I can’t just stand and do nothing okay?! Ray is counting on us to save him! Charlotte is a freak and I’m very sure she left a way out of this!” she argued in a firm and lowered tone..

Charlotte threw her head back with a sigh, their lovey dovey scene wasn’t what she was expecting to see..

She wanted to see them in tears and at her mercy most especially Arya..

“Umm excuse me.. you do realize that you have two lives to save today right? or you can just choose to leave and birth a new son for Kyle and also find a new dad” She mocked..

Arya shrugged off Kyle’s hand on hers in anger, she took a step forward but this time her foot didn’t sink..

“Arya! be careful!” Kyle warned in a firm tone..

She noticed the change of facial expression on Charlotte’s face even though it was just for a second she was still able to capture it..Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Charlotte must have been a bit scared that Arya would figure out the pattern to get to her safely without stepping on the wrong ground..

“Oh! you were pretty lucky there.. weren’t you?”

Arya’s lips pulled up into a smirk, the latter was panicking and she could see it clearly..

“I guess I was born lucky.. that’s why everyone you love and care about end up coming to me naturally.. doesn’t that make you feel worthless?!” Arya scorned to see Charlotte stand up to her feet harshly..

Good! just what she wanted, she needed to provoke Charlotte a bit more..

“What did you say?!”

“You’re a worthless piece of shit! and you don’t deserve anyone’s love! and care!”

Charlotte’s mind and head was clouded with hatred and anger to think clearly and also know what was going through Arya’s mind..

She took three steps forward to Arya gnashing her teeth in anger, before Sharon could point out her boss’s mistake, she was already three steps away from Arya..

Arya mentally noted the exact spot Charlotte stepped on..

“And that’s the reason I’m taking everyone and everything you love and care about! how about I tell you a sweet story?.. once upon ten minutes ago, Arya’s delight was raided by my henchmen.. wasn’t that an interesting story?” she crackled up which didn’t faze Arya..

“Great! destroying things that aren’t yours to find inner peace? don’t you ever grow up? I wonder how you’re my older sister when you’re nothing but a cow’s dump!”

Charlotte screeched out in anger, she charged at full speed to Arya who didn’t move an inch away from her spot..

She watched the last three steps Charlotte took to her with a small smile which instantly died the moment she was slapt hard by Charlotte..

“Charlotte!!” Kyle roared..

Arya met with Charlotte’s burning orbs “I’ll handle this Kyle.. but first-

She pulled Charlotte harshly to stand in front of her “Why don’t we play this choosing game? big sis?”

Before Charlotte could comprehend Arya’s words, she fell flat on her face at Kyle’s feet..

“Ma’am!” Sharon called out to Charlotte who was now glaring hard at Arya..

Kyle grabbed her arm and pushed her to his guards who has been standing behind him all these time..

Arya hopped and followed the same path she saw Charlotte walking on earlier, she managed to cross the obstacles but how was she going to get them down?

Charlotte chuckled even though she was currently being held back by four men, she still couldn’t stop herself from laughing out at Arya who thought that she was so smart..

“You’re such a genius Arya! you thought that you’ve outsmarted me, now the real game begins.. you have to choose who you want to save first.. save one and the other falls off the chair and receive an electric shock”

Arya’s eyes widened, she heard a crackling sound by her side to see Sharon pulling down a lever attached on the wall..

She moved back a little when she noticed the seat was moving higher..

“What did you do?!”

Sharon shrugged and picked up a yellow object with a red big button on it which looked like a remote control of something..

Kyle cursed beneath his breath, he wondered where the cops were? it’s been quite a while and they haven’t gotten here yet..

He turned back to the vicious lady behind him and grabbed her chin squeezing it with his hand…

“You better stop whatever is going on or else I’ll make you pay dearly!”

Charlotte chuckled, at this point she really didn’t care about his threats, this time there was no way out for the both of them..

“You made me your enemy Kyle.. don’t blame me for being heartless..”

Arya matched straight to Sharon and sent a slap to her face, she snatched the control from the latter sending her to the dusty ground..

“Arya.. I’m very scared.. please get me down” Ray cried out to her..

She took a glance at the other seat, her dad was moving, her hands quivered as she stared down at the control she was holding..

Her mind was in chaos, she couldn’t choose one of them.. they both held a place in her heart, She pressed the red button on the control and almost immediately a yelp reached her ears from the two on the seats..

“Arrgh.. it… hurts… Arya”

Arya dropped the control to the ground fidgeting, she took a look up at Ray who looked like he was in pain..

“Arya! stop whatever you’re doing, the cops are on their way… there’s clearly death trap everywhere so don’t move!” Kyle warned, he tried to come closer but sadly, he didn’t know where to step on..

Charlotte laughed out once more “Oh dear Arya.. did you just do that to your dad and Ray? they just jolted out in electric shock!”

Arya stepped back, this wasn’t going to be a good idea, everything was clearly a trap to make matters worse..

She turned around heading to Charlotte while carefully avoiding the traps covered with sand..

“You’re so inhumane!” she barked sending a slap to Charlotte’s face, and another, and another until Kyle pulled her back to himself..

Not too long the sound of the cops siren filled the air, they heard a chopper circulating over the roof of the factory..

They both sighed in relief as the cops ran in, they ran to the direction of Ray and Mr Carter who were still dangling on air while Arya pointed out the places to step on….

Charlotte yelled out in frustration and anger as she watched them try to bring the two down from the chairs..

“No! this isn’t over Arya! I won’t let you have the last laugh.. I’ll pull you down with –

A deafening sound echoed cutting Charlotte off her speech, she raised her head up to meet Mia’s annoyed expression..

“You’ve troubled us enough Charlotte.. now it’s time for your evil ways to come to an end!”

Kyle and Arya ran towards Ray and Mr Carter’s direction when the seat was lowered, they both untied Ray from the chair and pulled him into their arms..

He was still shaking probably from the shock earlier..

“I’m very sorry baby.. I’m really sorry.. I didn’t mean to do that” Arya sniffed back sobbing for Kyle to rub her back gently..

She pulled away and planted a kiss on his cheek, she was glad that he was alright…

Her eyes fell on her weak dad who was struggling to keep his eyes open..

“Dad.. can you hear me? it’s me.. Arya..”

His lips drew a weak smile, she started untying him from the ropes used to tie him to the chair..

Meanwhile..

Charlotte’s eyes blazed in anger, this wasn’t what she was expecting to happen..

Arya didn’t deserve to be happy after snatching everything away from her, she deserved to be ruined too just like her..

She suddenly broke free from the guards who were not expecting her sudden movement, she snatched a pistol from one of the officer’s holster and pointed it towards Kyle and Ray..

“Drop the pistol down young lady!” one of the cop warned sternly with a pistol pointed to her..

She turned around facing him with the pistol for him to raise his hand up a little in a surrender gesture..

“Back away from me!” she yelled out which gained Arya and Kyle’s attention..

Charlotte turned back to Kyle and Ray “I’m sorry I have to do this.. this is the only way that we can actually stay together.. if I can’t have you and Ray by my side in this life.. then I guess no one else does!”

Arya’s eyes widened, she saw Charlotte’s finger pressing against the trigger, she had no idea what came over her, but she found herself running towards the Kyle and Ray…

Two loud gunshots fired…

Kyle left Ray’s side and caught Arya before she fell to the ground..

“Arya!” He yelled out

Arya smiled at him, all she could hear in the background was Ray, Kyle and Mia calling out to her name until she saw darkness..
