Later, he had avenged his mother. Harry hadn't wanted the media to rake over the past and wished that
his mother could rest in peace. So he hadn't told the public that Yolanda was the chief instigator in his
mother's death.
That was the case. It suddenly dawned on Lola. "So how many years did Yolanda get?" she asked
Harry. "She must have got at least eight to ten years" Lola thought satisfactorily.
Harry looked at Lola and thought, "My wife is so pure. She has no idea at all." Her heart is clean.
"She died," he replied in a faint voice.
What? Lola was stunned. "Really?" She looked at Harry carefully. Did she hear it wrong? The last she
had heard was that Yolanda was behind bars.
Harry took Lola in his arms. He looked at her fine hands and said, "She was tortured to death by the
others in prison." He didn't hide anything from her.
Lola thought of Mike. He had suffered the same fate with Yolanda.
She shouldn't feel sorry about them. They deserved punishment.
Now that Yolanda was dead, she was safe. "Then I don't need a bodyguard every time I am going out,"
she asked Harry. It was always uneasy when someone was following you around.
"It depends," he said. Yolanda was dead but Thomas Herren was alive. He guessed that Thomas was
after the old pocket watch.
Lola saw that Harry was unaffected by Yolanda's death. How could he not be upset about her death?
Lola looked at him with a doubtful expression.
"How do you feel now?" she asked him. She observed his expressions carefully lest he lied to her.
"How do I feel now?" He raised his eyebrows. He grabbed her and holding her tight, whispered in her
ears, "I feel good holding you now."
Lola rolled her eyes at him and pushed him away. "I'm asking you about your feelings now that your ex-
girlfriend is dead."
Oh! this is what she was talking about. Harry gave her a smirk. "Give me a nice, long kiss and I'll tell
you the truth." Saying this, he put his face in front of her lips.
Lola was speechless. "How can you be so heartless? She used to be your woman," she hotly asked
feeling sad for Yolanda. Would he be equally indifferent if she also disappeared one day?
"Right. But, she isn't my woman now." Yolanda had herself asked for this, he thought.
"You ungrateful brat!" She glared at him.
"What's wrong? Do you want me to say that I am heartbroken so that you feel satisfied?" He felt
unhappy. Did she really think that he cared for that dreadful woman?
Harry looked displeased. Lola stood up from the sofa with her arms akimbo. "Harry, are you being
angry with me?" She was very dissatisfied with what he had said.
Lola looked like a vixen. Harry smiled at her and held her arms again. "Honey, it's my fault. Don't be
angry." Weren't they talking about Thomas Herren? How did it turn to him?
Lola raised her chin higher in the air. "Apologize to me right now!" she haughtily ordered him.
... Harry wanted to throw her on the bed and teach her a lesson for teasing him. But he had to get to
business. "Honey, I'm sorry. Please accept my apology."
"That is more like it," said Lola crossing her arms across her full chest. All her caprices dissolved, she
kissed him on his lips and said, "You did a great job today. I'll award you with an extra drumstick at
dinner today."
Drumstick? Harry saw that she was in a good mood. He asked, "Can I change my award to something
else?"
"How about pig's trotters?" she playfully asked.
... "I don't want that. Thank you!"
"Then sheep's trotters?" she continued teasing.
"Honey, I don't want any trotters. I want this... just like this." Harry touched her body all over, which
made Lola laugh out loud.
She laughed so much that she had tears in her eyes. "All right, let's talk business," she said wiping her
wet eyes.
Harry got up from her body. The two sat down and the atmosphere returned to normal.
Lola said, "He was badly hurt and has lost everything. So be it." She was afraid that Thomas wouldn't
give up. But she couldn't take his life. That was heartless.
Harry fondly looked at her. "Are you sure?" he asked. If this was what Lola wanted then he would have
to get Thomas tailed 24*7.
Lola nodded. Harry lovingly looked at his wife. He thought she was very kind. He embraced her and
started thinking of ways to protect her from Thomas Herren.
Time flew by.
Happy days always fly past like an arrow. A few days later, Jordan appeared without notice at the
mansion in C Country.
He wanted to tell his sister about everything that had happened with Grandpa Landon, but didn't know
how to.
"What's the matter?" Lola, sensing that Jordan wanted to talk about something important, handed over
the twins to Mrs. Du so that she could freely talk to her elder brother.
Jordan thought of their grandfather and said, "We need to find out the secret of the old pocket watch."
Lola was surprised. Why did Jordan suddenly think about the old pocket watch? "What's happening?"
she worriedly asked.
She had been so busy with her three kids that she had showed little love to her other family members.
How unfilial of her!
"Grandpa was kidnapped a few days ago. He broke his leg during the rescue operation. The
kidnappers have been arrested. But they had wanted the old pocket watch," Jordan got Lola up to date
with what had happened recently.
"There were still many people who want the old pocket watch. So I have decided to find out its secret to
free everyone from all sorts of troubles," he explained.
"Grandpa was kidnapped and he broke a leg?" Lola's eyes widened with worry. She suddenly stood up
from the sofa. No one had told her about this!
Jordan nodded. They hadn't told her as she herself was in confinement. "He has been discharged from
the hospital and is doing well now."
Lola felt a bit relieved and sat down on the sofa again. Jordan was right. It was the old pocket watch
that had started all the trouble. Thinking aloud, Lola said, "But for that, we will have to go to Mando
Bay."
"I have had a word with Harry. When I have finished my business, I'll go with you to Mando Bay to
protect you," he said. Mando Bay was so dangerous that they might need to take a dozen people with
them for protection.
"Ok," she nodded. The old pocket watch was like a time bomb. Somebody else would be kidnapped
again if they didn't find out its secrets quickly.
At night
Jordan went to find his comrade-in-arms in the army in C Country. Lola was standing near the window,
looking outside, with Sally in her arms.
The door to the nursery opened and Harry entered the room.
He walked up to her and gave her a hot kiss.
"What are you thinking about?" he lazily asked her. He took Sally in his arms and kissed her, too.
Daniel was sleeping soundly in his cradle.
"Big brother was here today," she said with a faraway look. Her brain was full of things that she had
learned during the day.
