My Little Sunshine

Chapter 98: Who's There?

The door of the room, flew open as a large bulky man who was clad in black, stepped inside. Seeing the room engulfed in darkness, he was taken aback. His eyes roamed around the room as he stepped towards the wall, his hands searching for the switch. 

Before his hands could locate the switch, he felt something moving behind him. 

"Who's there?" He asked in his heavy voice but heard no reply. Before he could speak up again, a hand struck his neck, hard, making him unconscious. His body fell on the floor with a loud thud. 

Lillian turned on the lights, making Stella squint her eyes.

"We should go back downstairs and enjoy the party." Lillian spoke up, her voice soft and calm. "How are you feeling by the way?" She continued without waiting for Stella's reply.

"I am feeling fine. Just like I was feeling before coming up here." Stella replied to her, standing up from the couch and making her way towards her.

"It means she must have only drugged your drink." Lillian replied as she stepped out of the room with Stella following her closely.

"But why would she do that?" Stella asked with confusion written over her face. "Why not drug both of our drinks?" She continued, not forgetting to shut the door close on their way out.

"Have a look at me." Lillian asked her, pointing her finger at her face. "What is the first word that comes to your mind?" 

"Beautiful." Stella replied immediately without giving it much thought.

"Exactly!" Lillian gave her a smirk. "She must have thought that the guy inside can easily deal with me." 

Stella nodded her head in agreement. Even she was taken aback when she saw the bulky man splayed on the floor unconscious.

Adam and Blake was having a chat with Liam as they sipped on their drinks. Both of them would glance at their wrist watches every now and then. 

"Looking at your watches after every minute won't make the time go any faster." Liam spoke up, giving the two an annoyed look. 

"There's no harm in trying." Adam replied with a smirk only to get his head smacked by Liam. 

"You guys don't even meet me anymore. And when you finally do, you are more concerned about your girlfriends." Liam was pouting like a child. Just like Adam, he also knew Blake since his childhood. 

"Lillian isn't Blake's girlfriend." Adam corrected him.

"Hey man! Did you really have to say it?" Blake interrupted him with a scowl on his face.

"I was just stating a fact." Adam replied with a lazy expression. 

"Whether she is his girlfriend or not, both of you are so whipped." Liam interrupted their childish banter.

"Who's whipped?" Rachel interrupted them. Her lips were curled up in a soft smile. 

"No one." Blake replied with an annoyed look. 'And here comes the party pooper.' 

"Where are your partners?" Rachel asked Adam and Blake, her lips curling up in a sweet smile.

Before they could reply, Liam interrupted them. "There they are." He said, raising his champagne flute behind her back.

Rachel turned around, her eyebrows furrowing. Her eyes landed on Lillian first who was walking towards them with her lips curled up in a smirk. Stella was walking next to her with no evident expression on her face.

Both Lillian and Stella greeted Liam, kissing him on his cheeks at the same time. 

"You ladies look so beautiful." He complimented them as they turned to their boyfriends/bosses. 

Adam wrapped an arm around Stella's waist as he brought her closer to him. Stella allowed him to do as he pleased.

Blake did the same to Lillian who didn't mind it either. 

"Rachel was just asking for you guys." Liam spoke up with a cheerful voice.

"We just met earlier. Don't tell me you were missing us already?" Lillian was the one to reply. Her eyes narrowed at her as her lips slowly turned up into a lop-sided grin.

Rachel could feel shivers running down spines. She gulped down the remaining content of her glass in one go. 

Blake's eyes were set on the girl in her arms. The look she was giving to Rachel could only mean one thing, she must have done something. He knew his girl too well. His eyes trailed down her figure, looking for an injury. He heaved a sigh of relief when his sharp eyes didn't find one. 

"We are leaving. I just remembered that I have something to deal with." Blake spoke up. He bid his good-byes to Liam, Adam and Stella as Lillian did the same. 

Adam was slightly confused by him leaving so suddenly but decided to ignore it for now. If only he knew the reason behind it, he would have done the same thing.
