Chapter 415 - Another Fear



Unaware about what was happening, Shea drove towards the Highland Club thinking it wouldn't be difficult for her to play hard to get, yet follow Wade Merton's plan.

The previous day, she didn't know who he was and his purpose. After being aware of his schemes, she was kind of sure she won't be comfortable around him.

Thinking of how to avoid wade from holding or touching her, Shea came to the conclusion, they should sit somewhere.

Flirting wasn't a big deal but thinking about it to fool him didn't appear as easy as the real one. 

She let out a frustrated grunt to keep thinking about it. Halting in the traffic signal, she got a sight of three tall towers that were far away. It was Skyarc apartments. 

Looking at the tallest one, "Will Shawn be there at the club?" She asked herself.

Then her thoughts slowly drifted about Shawn. She was sure about one thing, she was very much attracted to Shawn. 

She had seen numerous handsome, stunning men but none had stayed in her mind for so long. In fact, she always forgot them on the same day she used to meet.

However, she had thought ignorance of Shawn might make her less attracted to him. Unfortunately, it wasn't working that way. Instead, it started bothering her over thinking about Shawn's ignorance.

She never really went through the phases where the known ones ignore her. Sometimes she was frustrated and sometimes, she wanted to wait for his attention.

'Am I really falling for that rude man? It can only be an attraction right?' She dug her knowledge about love but she wasn't able to settle well with any thoughts.

She pressed a button on the car steering wheel and commanded, "Call Sister-in-law."

The call soon connected and it was mute for a few seconds before the voice emerged, "Shea! I was expecting you at Coasta before you settled in Mocon. How are you, Sweetie?" The soft voice brought a tiny smile to Shea's face.

"Sister-in-law, I am not coming to Coasta, ever. You know Grandpa has been behind me for two years yammering about marriage." She whined totally unaware of the car that was following her very close by.

There was a loud sigh. Shea knew her sister-in-law is also having similar issues. She was eager to get married to Nikun but was afraid to live with her grandparents.

Shea changed back the topic, "Sister-in-law, I want to ask you something but you shouldn't tell this to anybody. Brother Nick will start doubting me."

There was a soft chuckle before the other end responded, "Alright, let me hear."

Shea was momentarily confused about how to ask the question. Then she straightly asked without worrying about what her sister-in-law would think, "Sister-in-law, how did you get to know you love Brother Nick? Was it an attraction?"

There was a pleasant pause for a moment before the response came in as light as possible, "It started off with attraction. He was a handsome teenager who was ignoring everyone, search me in the crowd every time.

I am not sure if we were serious about each other until the day he said he got a seat in his dream university and I had chosen college in Coasta.

That's when I understand, I wasn't ready to lose him."

Shea had heard many tits and bits of their story, it was the first time she heard the whole summary from her sister-in-law's point of view.

After a smile, Shea shook her head and came back to the topic, "So the attraction is just in the beginning."

There was a chuckle before responding, "I see, our dear little one who is scared of marriage is attracted to somebody."

Shea knew her sister-in-law would anyway find out but didn't expect to be made fun of. "Sister-in-law, I am already all confused."

After getting serious, the response came to calm Shea's nerves, "To keep it simple, attraction is inevitable in love but... Attraction isn't Love. We get attracted to a lot of things like beauty, some unique things, talents and somebody's personality irrespective of genders..."

"That's it," Shea exclaimed loudly and happily. "Sister-in-law, I almost thought I fell in love. Damn, it's just his talents." 

She easily backtracked in the path of love without letting her sister-in-law say anything else. 

After talking a few more minutes, Shea halted at another traffic signal, when she heard a knock on the door of the passenger seat window.

Shea couldn't see the face of the man so she rolled down  the windshield and peeked at the man, "Yes?"

The second she identified the man, her eyes widened. His hair was set in hair gel, his eyes didn't look the same as the previous night. The smile on his lips gave her goosebumps and unknowingly she trembled inside.

Since she already knows Wade Merton meant harm to her, her throat went dry, the short earned happiness dissipated, her heart accelerated in fear.

The plan was to meet Wade at the club where numerous people will be around so she was too bold and had readily accepted that she could trick Wade Merton.

It never crossed her mind that she will have to meet him somewhere else. She was frozen as ice with panic with her eyes glued on his expression which instantly morphed to surprise.

Even though Shea never cared to be wary of the people's reaction excluding her dear ones, she was read him right. He was acting, it was a fake surprise. She doesn't believe in the coincidence of this kind.

Shea knew she was being kidnapped.

Yes, she knew that. And Nikun had told her that the quicker and faster way to get rid of Wade Merton was letting him kidnap her. 

But, her brother was at the club, how was he going to save her?

The cold sweat appeared on her back staring at Wade, she could close the windshield and drive away, which meant they would lose Wade Merton and her life would always be in danger.

Despite knowing she was on a cliff, she forced herself to smile but it was too fake which not only her but Wade sensed.

She wasn't an actress for god's sake and she was dreaded thinking about what if Nikun couldn't save her.

"Hey Shea, I almost doubted you were somebody else." The raspy voice of the man hit her ears and she felt her stomach clench.

He was so good at acting, she blamed herself for being unable to handle the situation. 'Okay, I can do it. I will drive fast to the club.'

"H-hello Wade, w-what a surprise! How come you are here?" She slightly stammered before managing to look like everything was fine.

Wade lied on her face without blinking after pointing at a club that little away from there, "I was right outside when I got your glimpse. Shall we get a drink?" 

He smirked to hypnotize her but utterly failed. Fear had gripped her throat, much less focus on his tricks. She wasn't ready to change the place when Nikun would be waiting for her at the bar.

She tried once and twice but her voice was numb thinking of all the possibilities at the same time, she can't let Wade escape either. She didn't want to live in another fear.
