Chapter 234 Give Nicole Back to Me
In Mo Family.
Yolanda's Weibo page was no longer in the popular list. Before the disastrous events to her life, she had more than 10 million fans but now she had only millions of fake followers.
She returned home like a crazy person as she did not know what to do. She was so lost in her thoughts. The whole family was gloomy because of her contagious aura.
Yolanda was still in her wedding dress. Sitting in her room all by herself, she stared in agony at her phone as she watched the video clip of her wedding ceremony.
How could things happen like that? Everything changed at the last minute. Years of hard work was now in vain. Everything has turned into a disaster.
The woman she hated for years was going to replace her and become the lover of her Harry. Life was so unfair to her!
She did not need to go out to find out how bad her image was right now.
She once was an international famous shining star. She was once liked by everyone. How come everyone hated her now?
All these happened because of the woman! She needed to get rid of Lola Li!
Fair enough. From this moment up to the very end, Lola Li would be her sworn enemy. She would not stop until that woman does not exist in this world anymore!
Just then, the door was opened. James Mo came in.
He found his daughter sitting on the bed looking all sad and helpless. James felt both angry and sorry for her. The internet had went crazy over the day's event. All of them blamed their daughter and some even criticized that he and his wife did not educate their daughter well. They referred to their daughter as a mistress who tried to set others up. They said that she should have been taught some good manners.
He sighed deeply and said: "Yolanda, what really happened? You should have been more careful of this."
On hearing her father's voice, Yolanda stared at the window without looking at him. She was so ashamed.
"Dad, I am sorry that you got involved. I shouldn't have been so kind to Lola." If only Lola could have totally disappeared from the world long time ago, then all these nightmares wouldn't have happened. She and her family would be happy and safe right now.
James Mo was utterly speechless. How could she be so stubbornly silly! He snapped, "Yolanda, you should quit doing stupid things right now. From now on, you should come to daddy's company and work there. You should start a new life."
He blamed himself for spoiling her. Since the day she made her way to the entertainment industry, he has stopped putting her in his guidance. There were many days that she was not at home.
Not long time ago, she had the incident with the director and that almost cost her lifelong reputation.
"Daddy, I won't! How could I go outside when things are like that! I can't look at people's eyes anymore. All of them thinks very badly of me!" Yolanda looked down at her wedding dress. Her voice went higher as the past continued to haunt her.
Today was supposed to be her big day. But she got abandoned by the bridegroom. All of her good reputation was now gone. How could she even start a new life? She must be the biggest jerk in history. Even she would laugh at herself!
James patted her on the shoulder and said, "Maybe you should just stay at home for some time. When things cool down a bit, you may come to my company and work. You should not see Harry anymore."
James felt sorry for himself as he had no one but himself to blame! He should have been more hands-on with his daughter. He blamed himself for not educating his daughter well.
Yolanda was still quiet. She completely ignored James' words. She wouldn't give up. There was no way that she would let Lola be with Harry. Life did not have a meaning for her if she didn't have Harry by her side.
Not over her dead body!
At 11 PM in Li Family, A Country.
Despite feeling mentally and physically exhausted, Lola dialed his number again and again. She was so desperate for answers. The uncertainty of it all was killing her. She knew he had blocked her number but she wouldn't give up that easy. Her daughter was at stake on this!
Finally, the battery went out when she dialed the sixty-sixth time.
She went downstairs. Every step felt really heavy. Lola picked up the phone in the living room and dialed that familiar number again.
On her first attempt, no one answered. The second and the third time were just the same. However, someone picked it up on her fourth try.
However, it was an awkward silence. Lola had to open her mouth first: "Harry..." Her voice was so soft but powerful. It penetrated the darkness that he is feeling inside him and easily caught his attention.
However, he remained in silence. Lola paused and then she said with a firm voice, "Give Nicole back to me!"
He laughed, "Give her back to you? Lola, you think too much! Did you give me that chance before? No!" He cast a glance at Nicole who was sound asleep next to him. His eyes were suddenly filled of fatherly joy the moment he saw her pretty face.
The words he said to Lola was not kind at all. They hurt Lola like cold daggers struck to her chest.
Lola was furious. She blamed herself for being stupid and sending her daughter to him like that. She didn't wisely think things through.
However, she was still relieved that they he did not continue his marriage with Yolanda.
It did not matter though. Her daughter was the most important person in her life.
"So, what do you want? How can I get Nicole back?" Controlling her anger with such effort, she asked him in a calm voice.
Harry got out of bed and walked to the balcony. He closed his eyes and recalled the night when she was here with him. He could still feel her lips on his...
"We will discuss this another time." There was no way he would talk about this with her now.
Lola clenched her fists. She really needed to distract herself now so that she would not be overwhelmed by anger. Otherwise, she would totally go crazy.
Too furious to continue the call, she hung up the phone without saying goodbye.
Harry was shocked that Lola even dared to hang up on him. He was provoked by her rude manners.
Lola Li, I need to teach you a lesson so that you can get rid of your ill temper, nasty pride and unpredictable ways of doing things! Harry thought to himself while a smirk spread on his face.
Lola sat in the dark living room with a pillow in her arms. She was thinking about her plans of getting Nicole back.
Anyway. Harry was Nicole's father. He was really nice to her as if she was the princess of his world!
In fact, there was nothing to worry about. Right now, she only needed to concentrate on how she can see her daughter and work things out with Harry. After all, he is her daughter's father.
The thought made Lola smile. It was only a couple of days. She was confident that she could manage to compose her emotions well.
The gate of the villa was opened from the outside. Harold and his wife walked in. They turned the light of the living room on as they made their way towards Lola's room.
Angie called out to Lola as she was going upstairs, "Why didn't you turn on the light? Is Nicole already asleep?"
Lola opened her mouth but nothing came out. She did not know what to say. Finally, under the pressure of her mother's concerning gaze, she confessed, "Nicole is staying with her father for a couple of days. There's nothing wrong with it. Harry has every right to do that."
Angie was confused. She raised her eyebrows and walked up to her. "Well, I thought Harry is getting married today. So, what is Nicole doing over there? I think I'm not okay with the idea that she is with Yolanda Mo." She really didn't understand her daughter's ways of doing things!
It seemed that her parents were not aware of what happened to Harry and Yolanda's wedding. Lola tried to explain, "Their wedding fell through."
Angie and Harold exchanged looks. Harold sensed something was wrong here, so he abruptly asked, "Lola, what is going on?"
Lola sighed deeply and explained, "Harry found out that Nicole is his own daughter so he cancelled the wedding with Yolanda." How else would she put it? To tell her parents honestly that Harry was going to fight for the child's custody?
She was not that stupid! She can't let her parents worry over this.
Lola's words worked. Mr. Li and Mrs. Li were very pleased at the answer. They thought Harry cancelled the wedding for the sake of Nicole.
It appeared that Harry cared a lot about their daughter and granddaughter. This made the old couple very delightful.
Lola noticed the looks on her parents' face and felt relieved herself.
However, she was also concerned of the possibility that Harry decided to keep Nicole and what should she say to her parents then?
Lola returned to her room but really couldn't fall asleep. She kept turning back and forth on the bed, thinking about Nicole. She was not used to sleeping without Nicole beside her.
At last, she sat up in huge frustration. She couldn't do it! If Harry ever decided to keep Nicole, she could do nothing but file a law suit against him! She had to win her daughter back! It might not be easy but it was the right thing to do.
This decision made her feel better. Eventually, Lola dozed off.
Time went by fast. The internet was still crazy about the disastrous wedding. People kept talking about Harry and Yolanda.
However, Nicole was not mentioned as Harry tried his best to cover her up.
Nicole was simply too young to be exposed. He would do everything to keep her safe.
