"That is true, my hubby is the best," Qiang cheekily exclaimed.

Rolling her eyes, Becca helplessly shook her head. "This girl is awestruck by her own husband."

"Because he is the best and he deserves all the praise and appreciation."

Just then Singtan stepped inside the room. "Sweetheart, your mom told me you are going out?"

"Yes dad, we are going shopping."

"Oh and by any chance does this 'we' include Guang or any of your brothers?" he inquired. When she shook her head, he added, "Okay then, I am going with you kids."

"Uncle Singtan, are you trying to say that we won't take care of Qiang?" Becca inquired.

Smiling at her, he patted her head. "Of course not honey, I just don't trust you kids at all."

"Ouch, that was hurtful," Huiling groaned.

"Dad, we are just going shopping, I will be fine." When Singtan frowned, Qiang assured him. "And I am not alone, Becca, Huiling and Elsa are going with me."

"Yes and we will take good care of her, I promise," Becca added.

Glancing at the watch, Huiling frowned, "Which reminds me, where is Elsa?"

"Hmm shouldn't she be here by now?"

"Exactly, let me call her."

"I did try calling her a while ago but her number was not reachable, I think you should call Ash and ask about her," Qiang suggested.

Ashton and Yinhai were still discussing business when Ashton received a call from Huiling.

"Ash, where is Elsa?"

Scrunching his brows, he inquired, "What do you mean? You guys were supposed to go shopping."

"Yeah but Elsa hasn't arrived yet so I called you to—"

Cutting her off, he remarked, "But she left home early to meet you guys."

"What? She isn't here yet, are you sure?"

"Of course, I—" Stopping midway, Ashton hung up the call.

Seeing his panicstricken expression, Yinhai inquired, "What happened?"

"Elsa is missing," he answered before calling the guard he had sent her with.

Just then a guard rushed into the room. "Boss, we have found Joseph in an injured state. Someone threw him out of a moving car right in front of the main gate."

"What?" Yinhai yelled before looking at Ashton who looked horrified. "Did you—"

"I had sent Joseph with Elsa."

Outskirts of country S.

Inside a house.

"What do you want Henry? Why are you doing this?" Trying to free her hands which were tied to the chair, Elsa yelled, "Let me go."

"Go where? To your new lover?" Shrugging his shoulders, Henry chuckled, "You look so desperate to be with him."

"Why are you doing this? We are childhood friends." Elsa had a very rough childhood which had a very tiny amount of good memories. Amongst those handful of good memories, meeting Henry and being friends with him was something that she always cherished. During her rough childhood, he was always there supporting her until she had to leave the city. After that, though she barely met him, he was still her forever best friend and she respected him a lot until things started taking a wrong direction.

She had never thought that Henry would turn out to be the man he was now. She always thought he respected her but she was wrong.

Before Henry could say anything, the door opened and someone entered the room.

Elsa's body turned stiff and cold at the sight of the man who still haunted her in her dreams. The man who had made her life a living hell was again standing right in front of her and she was once again in a helpless state.

"Brother," she muttered.

Smiling devilishly at her, Alvin remarked, "We meet again little sister."

Looking at the two men simultaneously, Elsa gulped in nervousness. "You both—"

"Oh no, don't worry we aren't working together. I just bailed him out so that I can take revenge for you." When Alvin frowned, Henry chuckled, "Oh good Lord, don't tell me you thought I wanted to join hands with someone like you."

"But you told me you wanted me to help you kill Ashton Wu," Alvin yelled.

"Of course I want to kill that man, he dared to touch my Elsa but—" picking up his gun which was lying on the table, he added, "Aren't you also the one who dared to touch her?"

Taking a step back, Alvin gulped in nervousness. "You can't do this, you are double crossing me."

"And what makes you think that I care what you think?" Pointing the gun towards him, Henry Looked at Elsa whose face had turned pale. "What are you so worried about? Don't you want him dead as well? Did you forget how this man assaulted you?"

Taking another step back, Alvin tried to run away only to get shot on his right leg. Groaning in pain, he collapsed on the floor.

Helplessly shaking his head, Henry slowly made his way towards him. "Fool, such a fool. You Seriously thought you could run away from me?"

Placing the gun point on Alvin's forehead, he looked at Elsa and smiled, "This is for you." He then fired a couple of bullets right through his skull.

Elsa screamed and squeezed her eyes shut before bursting into tears. She felt helpless and could do nothing but endure everything. She wanted to be with Ashton but she also didn't want him to come as it would also risk his life. Henry was a sick man, she knew he could do anything without flinching or thinking twice. She would rather wish to die than let someone harm her man.

Tossing the gun aside, Henry quickly rushed towards her. "Did I scare you? I am so sorry, I—"

When he tried to touch her, she growled, "Don't touch me."

Letting out a mocking chuckle, he crossed his legs and sat down on the floor. Looking at Alvin's dead body, he remarked, "This man assaulted you for years, he made you cry several times but what did your so-called boyfriend do? He acted like a coward and shoved him in the prison."
