Husband With Benefits
Chapter 292: Olivia Brown

Chapter 292: Olivia Brown

Evana heaved a sigh of relief as she finally understood the relationship and almost patted herself on the back, complimenting her self-control. It was a good thing she had not overreacted or else she’d have made a fool of herself again. Sister! Even Nora had been unaware that they’d had a sister.

Her smugness did not last long, however, as Lucien soon slithered over to her and whispered in her ear," Don’t think I did not notice those blazing eyes when you saw me hug Livi. I almost expected a repeat of being poked at. You jealous little angel."

Covering her mouth with her hand, she whispered back," You’ve been hallucinating. I did not even react at all. What jealousy. I already know what a playboy you are."

"Ha! You were so jealous I could almost see the smoke coming out of your ears. Be honest, Angel. You feel possessive of me."

"I do not feel..." Evana tried to deny it but was interrupted by Lucy who whispered," I like it. I like that you are possessive of me."

Evana shut her mouth at that, her face turning hot. Quickly, she turned to Olivia, wanting to understand what had happened and how Dora reached her.

"How did you get Dora?"

Olivia sighed and threw a glance at Demetri who remained quiet! It was all this man’s plan and he should be the one explaining it! But no! It had to be her.

"Demetri needed someone to pass on information between here and the others back home. So, he suggested to your father that I be the one to be invited here along with Antonio. He used Antonio to get rid of Queen Rosalind’s plan of having her engaged to Prince Augustus. And I was the ruse to try and delay the plan."

"Later, when he found a way to get rid of Queen Rosalind, I was handed into the care of Robert who’s job was to take care of me and keep me safe until I was of use. I’ve been enjoying a long vacation here since then and since I’d been keeping a distance from everyone and my point of contact was only Robert, I thought we’d formed a friendship."

"Robert barged into my hotel room this morning carrying an unconscious Dora and begged me to take care of her. I was shocked. He seemed to be in a hurry and I tried to stop him, trying to understand the little girl’s identity, but he said he was leaving the country. Once he was safely out of the country, he would call me."

Olivia finished off with a shrug. So, Olivia Brown had been brought to Estania by Demetri who thought this far off. Of course, he had not expected Robert to trust Olivia, but he’d brought another hidden piece amidst them, without anyone being the bit wiser. It was too sneaky of the man.

As this layer was peeled off, Evana realized that Demetri Frost was too far thinking and insidious. He’d been here a year... how much had he already done...

Shaking her head, she tried to focus on the task at hand," So, Robert has escaped the country, and Dora is safe. Thank you Olivia!"

Olivia smiled as she accepted her gratitude before sighing," Unfortunately, you are wrong about one thing, Evangeline."

"What do you mean? Is Dora still in some kind of danger?"

"Nah! Dora is safe. Its Robert. Because he was being so jittery and not answering my questions properly, I might have over reacted."

"What do you mean?"

"I tasered him." Olivia replied with a small look.

Evangeline’s eyes widened as she tried to confirm," What did you do?"

"Tasered him? Its something you do with a Taser gun? Incapacitate the person temporarily...He is with Ian at the moment."

"You keep a taser gun with you?"

"Of course. Don’t you know what an overprotective lot they are? If I don’t keep something and am unable to protect myself, they will surround me with bodyguards. So, for my own peace of mind, I carry a gun at all times. Since I was not allowed to bring that into Estania, I purchased this one here."

Evangeline nodded in understanding, admiring the woman in front of her. Jsut then she remembered another thing and turned to Lucien who was once again typing away something on the laptop," We need to inform Daddy that he needs to come back and not go to that meeting."

"Its too late for that, angel. Your father has already established contact with the kidnappers and his phone and other tracking devices have been discarded. The place where he went to, has already been emptied."

Evana felt alarm bells go off in her head. "What did you mean empty? Have the taken Daddy away now? Has he been kidnapped?"

Lucien quickly sent Evana a comforting look and answered," It’s okay, Angel. He is safe. You don’t need to worry about him. He will be safe. We’ve already taken precautions."

"What kind of precautions, Lucifer? Tell me everything."

"We’ve done what Alpin Banfi has been trying to do. He kidnapped Dora to force your father’s hand. Well, we are doing the same thing."

Looking at her blank face, Lucien sighed. He knew she would not be able to comprehend what he was saying since she was too honest. He’d have to put it bluntly, " Angel, we’ve kidnapped Alpin Banfi Jr."

Evangeline coughed and stared at Lucien as she choked on her own saliva. Finally, catching her breath, she looked at him and asked," What did you say? You’ve kidnapped Junior?"

"Not exactly kidnapped. More of a hostage situation." Lucien tried to parry.

"Hostage?"

"Uh huh. Alpin Jr is in the hospital right? We’ve taken control of the man’s hospital room. That is it. I’ve already intercepted Banfi’s location and sent him a video of his son. See, he is screaming like a pig who has been tied for slaughter."

Evangeline could only stare in horror as Lucien then explained their next plan. Her eyes had been opened to an all new world as she finally realized that there was no black and white in this world. Both Banfi and the Frosts had kidnapped a person, a crime, but their motives made all the difference...
