After Sleeping with My Childhood Prince, I Kicked Him Out from My World novel Chapter 100

Chapter 100

75. Kidnapped.

-One day ago-

I wake up to the sound of my own groans and some rummaging around me. When I open my eyes first thing I notice is Ethan going through my stuff with his back towards me. He has searched through my entire room.

What is he looking for?

Panic rises, and I try to lift my head off the pillow. That’s when the tight rope tied around my wrists and ankles digging into the skin makes itself known.

“What are you doing?” I ask, but my voice comes out as a low rasp. My back hurts and my muscles are sore. I want to move, but the ropes bite into my skin, holding me in place. My heart races as the reality of the situation sinks in. Ethan has lost his mind.

You’re a fucking millionaire,” he turns and says casually as he takes a seat on the bed’s corner.

I stay quiet, unable to process. How he got the guts to kidnap me. He should know this will not end well.

You didn’t change your lifestyle. So it was impossible for anyone to make a guess…” He fixes his gaze at me as I try to keep my focus on him. My head is still foggy. “If I had this money, I would have invested in some luxury and one full–time bodyguard,” he says and laughs.

His laughter is manic and I realise I made a big mistake by not keeping Raylan longer around me. Miles asked me many times if I would like to keep a bodyguard. I denied saying all our problems were left behind. Because we were having negotiations with Della.

“Were you behind the attack? The one I have accused Della for?”

He snorts. “Maybe..”

I look at him. “Why? What did you want?” I ask, dreading the reply. It makes little sense. I am not sure if I can keep my shit together if he says he wanted to kill me.

He gets up and stretches his back. “I wanted Della out of my way. I mean, she is such a pester,” he says with annoyance. “I thought it would be a nice setup to frame her for your attack. She will go to jail and I will convince you to date me again.”

I let out a humorless laugh. “Didn’t you realize I won’t date you because you dumped me like dirt, Ethan?”

He rolls his eyes. “I would have made it up if you had given me a chance. Everyone deserves a second chance.”

I go quiet and he is the one who breaks the silence. “I have to ask. How did you pull this off? All this money? And

why you didn’t go lavish.”

I won’t tell him about the contract with Miles. And about going lavish? It was a decision I made when Lena and Jake studied M Miller’s profile. They showed me how someone with so much assets kept a low public profile. We literally couldn’t find a single image of him online. It gave him his freedom. Less publicity meant less risk. Everything was perfect until this day.

“I always wondered how the hell you were living in a place like this,” Ethan sneers, looking around. I blink. How did he know where I live? Then I remember Ethan had fucking PI on me. Because he had to report it to my dad. The question is…. how much he knows about my life?

“I told myself maybe you are earning good from your stupid music company and you must have rented this place… But now I can see you own this place too.” He laughs, waving my apartment papers in my face.

“You bought this place for twenty million. Wow. Just Wow.” He shakes his head, anger spreading across his face. “Here I am struggling to clear dues for loan sharks and you are swimming in fucking money! This changes everything. I am glad I came here to see you.”

I blink, trying to make sense.

“Is this why you vanished from California? Because you have people behind your back?”

He stares at me, trying to evaluate if I am worth the talk or not.

I always solved your problems, Ethan. Don’t you remember that? Tell me How much you owe them?” I try to coax him.

He snorts. “You rejected me. Why should I trust you now.”

I want to roll my eyes so hard. This man is so delusional. Was he hit in head somewhere? But I should stay on the topic.

*Please tell me. Who are they, and how much do you owe them?”

“Russian mafia.” He mutters. “I didn’t know this when I took the loan. I invested it at insane interest rates, thinking I could make a quick buck. But it all went downhill. Now I can’t pay it back, and they’re out to kill me. Believe me, fucking revenue department behind my ass is not even a problem.”

“How much? I have cash and jewelry in the safe right now.”

He laughs and brings his face near me.

“You are offering me peanuts? Don’t worry about that. I have figured out you must have enough. And I will take it from you.”

A shiver passes my spine as he whispers into my ear. “I will take everything, Avery. It’s been a while. Do you know how hard it was for me to stop myself while you were unconscious. I wanted to have some fun with you.“

His hand makes its way towards my thigh. Rage rises inside me and I head butt him. Ethan stumbles back, holding

his nose.

Chapter 100

“DONT TOUCH ME!” I scream. “HELP! SOMEONE HELP ME.”

I know it’s pointless. These apartments are soundproof.

“Fucking bitch. I have to level up,” he says as he slaps across my face. Sharp pain hits me and darkness spreads across my eyes.

They say when your end is near, your whole life flashes across your eyes. You also think about the stuff you wanted to do. So I dream…. About Miles….. About us. We are running on the beach while a little child trails behind us. He is trying to get a hold on us.

I turn and call him out, “Come! Catch me.”
