The Law of Attraction

Lana's eyes widened after she heard that and a shock crossed her pretty face, even her mother and Luo were shocked to hear him.

Luo stared at the monster in disbelief. Lana was her sister? She felt a strange emotion fill in her heart. Indeed, she would gladly embrace Lana as her sister but accepting this monster as her father? IMPOSSIBLE!

When she woke up after the incident at the convenience store, she found herself in an abandoned building. Her hands were tied at her back and a rope was on her neck. She could not move even a bit because one wrong move would choke her to death, her feet were standing on something while she was tied like that.

The man was very familiar to her because she recognized the mole on his neck. He was the old man he bumped into in the parking lot a few days ago. She presumed he was stalking her from that moment on for this purpose. She never thought he was the same man who had tortured Lana in her childhood, Lana's father.

And now he was saying she was also his daughter? That monster who kidnapped her and traumatized her for life was her father?! It could not be! Luo found it very hard to believe it.

"That's a lie! You're a monster! I'm not your daughter! It can not be!!" Luo screamed. She could not accept that lie.

The old man laughed and said, "The man who left you at the doorstep of your parents back then was a friend of mine… The one your mother asked for help because I was planning to sell you out instead."

"Well, you are one lucky baby because the police were after me at that time so I have to leave and hide for some time instead of chasing that traitor friend and taking you away. That man… You looked for him, right? And he showed you the picture of your mother, am I right? That was really your mother's photo because that man loved your mother… Your and Lanabelle's real mother!" he shouted with a sarcastic look at Mrs. Huang.

Then he turned back at Luo and continued, "To cut it short. I had killed that bastard because he couldn't be trusted in case you offered him money to spill out the truth. He was proclaimed dead by natural cause just like what I had instructed. Well, I let you live and stay in that family since that stupid couple is generous in providing me with money whenever I would ask them to."

Then he grimaced at Luo and grunted, "But now they are of no use so I had to eliminate them by setting up the whole house on fire. You see, I've decided that we should live together as one happy family. Don't you think it's fun?"

He laughed, seeing the terrifying look on his daughter so he consoled, "Don't worry, your fake parents survived but after I'm done receiving the money from your rich husband, I will also make sure to kill all of them! Spare no one..."

"You're crazy!" Lana grunted while her head was working on how she could rescue both of them from this monster.

"I know that look Lanabelle! You want to rescue these two, huh? Oh, you know how your father loves to play games with you, right? Do you want to play a game? Like before? In which you will have to choose who will die first? Just like we played with those stray cats? Don't you miss that, my dear Lanabelle? Don't you miss playing with me at all?" she heard him scornfully say those threatening words followed by an evil laugh.

Lana's heart slammed in her chest. 'No please, no!' she wanted to voice out but she would not give the monster that pleasure. Not that game… She could still remember how he killed those cats in front of her one by one while she cried hard.

"Don't you want to just play with me? Release the two of them. They are too boring for that game. Tell me how did you manage to set things up in the first place? Who supported you in this scheme?" Lana mumbled. She needed to buy time. Drey would surely come soon with his team if she could buy more time then she could save both of them.

"Good question… But your father is not stupid to give away those important details, Lanabelle. That's my lifeline. Hmm, I haven't actually watched you in combat and I heard you are pretty good at it. How about fighting my men, then? Let's do this…" the monster said and he made a signal.

One man positioned himself in front of her mother and another man in front of Luo. The monster stood up from his seat in between and moved aside. He then signaled another man to give her a knife.

Lana could get what he wanted. She saw the men release the hands of both Luo and her mother and went back in front to guard each of them.

"I will ask my men to choke them to death and you will probably end up saving only one since you could only fight one of the guards." her father commented.

"I wonder who will you choose to save first? The fake mother or your biological sister? Who should it be?"

"Save Luo first, Lana!" Her mother demandingly yelled at her before the chairs they were using to stand too were kicked by the monster and he laughed demonically.

Lana moved fast and fought the man guarding Luo with just one blow and he was down. She quickly grabbed the chair and put it back on Luo who was struggling to breathe.

Then she fought the guard on her mother. He was better compared to the other one and Lana received a hit on her stomach many times that she had to spit blood. She saw her mother struggling while screaming, seeing her daughter got hurt.

'My baby. Please save my baby.' Lana silently prayed because she felt the pain in her stomach. The blow she received there was pretty hard. She moved quickly and managed to dodge and stab the man in both legs with a quick motion. She punched him on his balls then she immediately stabbed his heart and pulled the knife out.

She quickly pulled the chair back on her mother's feet and pulled the other chair the monster sat on. She stepped on it and removed the rope from the hang to free her mother. Her every movement was fast despite the pain she was feeling in her stomach.

'Please God… Not my baby…' Lana prayed as the pain increased.
