"let me go"
Bella was trying to escape from the men who had suddenly grabbed her into a quiet street while on her way home from work.
"Don't come closer " She shivered on fear as the three of them walked slowly towards her after dragging her to a corner.
She looked around and saw that the street was very quiet as expected because it was known to be the hideouts of criminal roaming around the city.
This men were clearly going to hurt her.
"Pretty girl, come closer" one of the men said as he had an evil smirk on his ugly face.
"We promise to be gentle" The second said. His own face looked like it was curved with a sharp knife. It looked awful .
"Please don't come closer to me, I beg you. You can have my purse, I have a couple of cash in it." She pleaded with them but it seems that they were only focused on her body.
She moved backwards trying to stay away from them. Just as she planned to run, one of the men grabbed her hand and whispered lustfully to her " Let's play a little game it won't hurt"
She continued to struggle with the men preventing them from doing anything to her but her fight only excited them.
" Who dares to touch her?"
A voice suddenly resounded in the corners of the silent street making the men loose their hold on her.
They all looked towards the area where the voice came from.
A formidable Old man stood by the road with four hefty and scaring looking guards by his side and he was holding a walk stick in his hand.
"What???That's Old man Perry!!!" One of the men exclaimed in surprise.
He was the grandfather of Jake Perry, one of the richest men in Europe. He was one of the most eligible bachelor and richest one too.
Jake Perry was in fact the richest bachelor in the whole of Europe and had various profitable businesses around the world.
Jake was the Chairman of Perry group of Industries, industries like the Finance Industry, the Property Industry, the large-scale malls, the Jewelry Industry and electric commercials.
He is also involved in e- sports.
She recognized the old man immediately. He was the same Old man she helped while working at the restaurant. He wasn't with any cash to pay for the fruit juice he drank so she paid for him and helped him cross the express. Who would have thought that he was a man of great reputation?.
She was working as a shop attendant in a restaurant in other to sponsor herself as well as her younger through their education and also cater for their other needs.
"I will forgive all three of you this time if you immediately let her go peacefully and walk away from here or I can handle this situation the hard way which will not end well for you three" The Old man's voice was surprisingly thick and strong for a man his age.
The thugs knew that the old man could easily carry out his threats because of his huge connection In the country which would not be favourable for them at all.
Life would be far worst for them if that happens.
" Yes sir" They all chorused and ran with their tails in-between their legs.
Bella was relieved to see the men run away. She finally breathed out in Joy after seeing this Old man walk towards her with his guards behind him.
"Are you Ok my dear?' The old man asked and stretched his hand towards her to assist her stand up.
" Thank you Sir, I'm so grateful " She thanked him and stood up and dusted her clothes.
" You are welcome dear" The old man said to her as he watched her carefully. She was very different from the other women he had tried to introduce to his grandson.
He took note of her when he went to a Restaurant without any guards to avoid his identity being revealed. He was treated rather badly by her colleague but she was able to resolve the matter and even assisted him by paying the pills and helping him cross the road later on.
She was the perfect Lady for Jake, his grandson but he needed to gain her trust.
"My child, where were you going to?" He asked in a warm manner.
Bella was comfortable with the Old man especially since he just saved her from being raped by those things not long ago.
" Well Sir, I was going home after work" Bella replied with a smile.
"Ok! Let me take you there for your safety. It's already late". The Old man suggested to Bella.
"Thank you sir " Bella thanked him again and followed him to his car.
After all, who knew if the thugs would wait for the Old man to leave first before they followed her again.
They both walked towards an expensive car.When Bella saw the car, her mouth fell open.
This was Bugatti La Voiture Noire, damn!
This car cost approximately $18.7million , What??
The Old man was truly the Grandfather of a Billionaire, this car could buy her life without any negotiation.
One of the guards opened the door for the both of them . Immediately she entered the car, it's cozy space made her feel like she was in heaven. What an experience for a poor girl like her .
"feel comfortable my dear" The old man said and smiled at her with his full dentition in view.
"Thank you once again Sir for your help" Bella thanked him.
"You are welcome dear but can I get your contact after dropping you at your place to discuss business" The Old man asked. He was very anxious about what her response would be.
After all she only met him today, but he had her best interest at heart.
"Ok sir, I trust you because you saved me from harm today and I will forever be grateful to you " Bella said with a smile.
