Grounded .

"She has a choice and can decide about her life unless you want to be reported for child abuse and violation of workers." spoke a voice from outside the house which took James aback.

"You wish and don't ever think you can scare me without any proof and little boy it's not too late to shut up and mind your own business before I report you for trespassing." screamed James

"Chen Lie! What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you to leave?" Heaven asked

"He's not here alone." said Chen Fu as he entered the house escorted by Chen Xi

"Big sister! are you hurt ? did anyone hurt you?" asked Chen Xi as he wrapped his little hands on Heaven's leg .

"Little one, am okay but please let me finish this." Heaven whispered to him and gave him a wink.

"Atlest, give some respect to this old man standing in front of you ." said Heaven as she walked around her dad

"Greetings to you sir!" said James as he slightly bent his head.

"Greetings too Mr Wood" Chen Fu greeted back as he slightly bent his head.

"Can we talk for a moment alone?" asked Chen Fu .

"You are a talented fighter, how I wish I had recorded it when you were beating those guards it was really cool." teased Chen Lie .

"Shut up?" replied Heaven

After some minutes when James and Chen Fu were done with their conversation, they came out from the library.

Come on Chen's let's go home Chen Fu said with a smile on his face as he held the Chen Xi's little hands .

"Is big sister coming with us?" asked the little one

"No, but I promise she will soon leave with us." said Chen Fu assuring as he looked at his son .

Although Chen Fu was old, their was similarity between him and his son .

As they set thier feet outside the house and drove off " You are grounded for a month, not allowed to go anywhere even school, am going to heir a teacher for you." James angrily spoke and with out waiting for her response they walked away together with his wife .

"Am even your child? Did you guys just stole me from the hospital? Or was I adopted?" Heaven asked herself inwardly.

A day passed followed by another then a week .

As Heaven sat in her room, it was messier than a rubbish can . As if a rat had died and rot inside it. There was a left over pizza and dirty clothes scattered around the room .

The bed was even messier with no duvet nor bed sheets with books on it .

Heaven was standing at the window her back facing the door . Thanks to the little one Chen Xi who sneaking into their how everyday she got another phone which was not known by her parents , guards and maids only Hazel knew about it .

Her life was even messier than before.

As she sat on her bed thinking on how her parents treat her like a sick dog which is not allowed to get out of the house and what her parents said to her a week back and how the Chen family cared for her that day a smile appeared on her face .

Hazel who was standing besides her noticed the gentle smile.

"Am very sure you are thinking of a way to escape but you know that than anyone else that you can't leave this mansion." said Hazel looking at her

"Um, I have a window in my room , What I need is to buy a rope , that's enough for us to leave without anyone knowing , have you forgot that we have two dates today? we can't lose that 1000 dollars ." replied Heaven

"Am really scared because if we happen to be caught I will be the one to suffer the consequences." Hazel said in a worried tone and teary eyes

"All my cards have been declined and I have got a way to earn myself money, this is the only way to leave these wicked and heartless people who only cares about themselves." Heaven thought to herself.

"Do we really need to do this, Heaven ?" Hazel asked

"What else can we do? You need money so do I, we have no choice but if you don't feel like doing it I will myself don't force yourself. I can't miss out that 1000 dollars." replied Heaven and continued " You know those people are really controlling my life, make me attend boring meetings and dinners , boring dates am really tired of living as a puppet , I want to live my own life."

For a week she was grounded, she attended dinners almost every night, two parties and six dates with different men.

Thinking about how her life was like a living hell even maids at the lowest ranks enjoyed thier life more than the rich young lady who was admired by most of people who had no idea about her living life each day was like a life time to her.

"Let's do this because I need that money more than you do." Hazel finally spoke after a few minutes of silence

As they were discussing on how to escape , there was a knock on the door.

"Shit !! did they heard us?" Hazel cursed

"Who is it?" Heaven yelled from inside

"It's me." Lady Axel replied in a calm and respectful voice . "What's it?" Heaven yelled again .

"Can you first open the door please?" asked Lady Axel .

"Open the door." Heaven ordered Hazel.

"Boss wants to see you in an hour and have ordered you to wear something elegant ." said Lady Axel as she handed over a red body con dress

"As you wish." mutters Heaven as she collected the dress with a grin on her face .

"By the way, next time if you are planning to escape make a good plan but not jumping through the window, that's too childish." advised Lady Axel before leaving the room .

"Lady Axel, wait ." Heaven called as she ran towards her

"Do you have a better plan?" She asked

Lady Axel just winked at her and left.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Heaven asked herself.

"Heaven....." Hazel asked out loud as if something had happened to her.
