Chapter 66: The mysterious partner
Last Updated:
2021-08-28 16:16:24Anastasia felt that the atmosphere at Moretti & Co. was tense. The whole city by now knew how Lucian was involved with the underworld. She could see officers coming in and going out frequently trying to investigate his case. Her colleagues looked at her with pity as the news also involved their engagement. She didn't bother to respond and walked hastily to her workspace. She wouldn't be able to explain to them how she was relieved with the outcome. When she reached the designing department, everyone went silent. She sighed, knowing very well what those looks meant. After a while, Arthur called her up to his office. She entered and saw the entire team was waiting there already.
"Since everyone is already here I'll start. As you know the situation of the company now, the other companies have taken the advantage of this situati

Anastasia asked Jonathan to go home rather than going with her to the police station. He didn't know that she had already received threats and she didn't want him to worry. As she reached she saw Hjades waiting for her. He had a plaster on his hand to support his shoulder and looked weak. She grimaced and wanted to scold him for being so irresponsible. Hades knew what she was thinking and before she could reprimand him he smiled "You are here finally. Let's go" Acting as if he didn't notice her scrutinizing gaze on him. She shook her head and walked behind him."We've tried to get information from the man. He said that he was paid to shoot you Ms. Kimberly and Mr. shaw informed us that someone has already attempted to harm you earlier as well, Am I right?" The officer asked."Yes, I've received a message as well" She informed. The officer nodded, "Do you have any suspects, any grudges with anyone or enemies you have a doubt on" He inquired. "Well, there is one person I

She avoided eye contact with him till she left his place. She made sure that he ate and took his medicines before leaving. "It was worth taking a bullet for you. If I had known earlier that this would bring you to care for me I would have already done it." He said, his eyes dancing with mirth. He enjoyed how she blushed and tried to hide it. He noticed how she rubbed her cheeks when she was flushed.The next morning, Anastasia was in for a surprise. When she stepped into Moretti & Co., the last person that she expected to see was Lucian 'That was fast. I knew he would get out, but this is too fast' She thought. He had called for her as soon as she stepped into the company. She was already prepared to face him and knew that he would continue with his blackmailing. She sighed and entered his office "Hello baby girl!" He said with an unusual smile on his face. "Well, I didn't expect to see you soon." She said curtly. He chuckled "As you can see having connections does

Hades was waiting for her impatiently. He had ordered the staff to cook all her favorite dishes. He would have cooked them himself but he couldn't. When Ana entered the house she was taken back by the aroma throughout the house. Hades walked towards her and guided her to the dinner table. Her eyes filled with excitement looking at all the dishes in front of her. She looked at him with a thankful gaze. "How was your day, love?" He started the conversation."Lucian's back," She said and he stiffened at her words. He dropped his fork and looked at her seriously, all his playfulness gone. "He shouldn't have been out till the next week. I've been talking to a few higher authorities who might be able to help with his case…..Did he say anything to you?" He was worried that Lucian might have used some underhanded means again. She

Anastasia's POV-Finally, it's the weekend! I can sleep In late. Since I've started my internship and helping father at the same time I haven't got any rest. To top that there was Lucian's drama that I had to handle. Thankgod! That's over now. I'm still skeptical about his abrupt change but let's just go with the flow. As I tried going back to sleep my phone buzzed making me groan.I looked at the clock at my nightstand only to see it was 7 in the morning. Who in their right mind calls so early in the morning on a weekend? I half sleepily answered the call "Yes?" Silently dozing off. "Ms. Kimberly, it's Mr. Shaw….Please come here as fast as you can" the voice said making me wide awake. Worry filled me as I thought about possible things that might have happened to him "I'm on my way" I said and hung up. I didn't bother changing, just washed my face, and ran downstairs. "Please be okay! Please be okay!" The unshed tears made their way down my cheeks.

I took a shower and wore the sundress he had prepared for me. Hades could always surprise me with the way he planned our dates. It was unique and unpredictable and I found myself enjoying every time. When he said he wanted to take me on a date yesterday I was looking forward to it but didn't know that we would end up going so soon. I made my way downstairs and saw him waiting for me near the dining table. "Soooo, where are we going?" I asked for the hundredth time, making him groan "Patience is a virtue love. We will be leaving after having breakfast, you'll know once we reach there" His statement again made me excited and couldn't wait to see what he had planned. I ate my breakfast hastily so that we could leave and start our day together. He could sense my excitement and kept smiling at me throughout breakfast. After breakfast, he led me to the parking. He was dressed casually, so I guessed we were having leisure time somewhere and it wouldn't be something fancy. "Let's play 21 qu

I looked around confused by his absence. The captain approached me "Ms. Kimberly I was instructed to take you to that island once you are done here" He informed pointing towards the island I spoke about with Hades. "Where's Hades?" I asked curiously, it was unlike Hades to leave me alone like this. "He's asked me to give this to you" He handed me an envelope. I hesitated and took it from his hand before opening it.Love,I would not lie and say that I fell in love with you the very first time I saw you but I also would not deny the fact that your personality has left an impact on me, and I realized that you made me happy. I noticed the twinkle in your eyes whenever your favorite song was played, I noticed your eye roll when people covered disrespect with humor. People saw you as the pretty girl next door, but to me, you were so much more than that. You are a strong woman who does not need people to keep you happy. I feel you yourself are enough and that is

I walked hastily towards the door but walking slowly down the stairs because of the heels. As soon as I looked up and stopped. There stood Hades as charming and handsome as always in a black tuxedo smiling at me lovingly as if I was the only one he could see. I started walking again until I reached him. We stood there looking at each other, mostly overwhelmed by everything, in silence. "You look beautiful," He said. My throat was dry and couldn't muster up the courage to talk so I did the one thing that both of us didn't expect. I kissed him. I could sense how shock he was at first but quickly started kissing back with equal fervor. That kiss conveyed all the emotions that I had held back. "Wow! I didn't expect such a sweet reward." He said as soon as I pulled back making me chuckle and roll my eyes trying to hide my embarrassment. "Thank you! It was amazing and I don't have words to express how I felt." I said. "Well if that was how you'd kiss me as a reward, then it was wort
Last Updated : 2021-08-30A love to die for.... Chapter 74: Suspicion
Hades's POV-The whole weekend was blissful. To be honest I had not expected her to say yes so easily. I had assumed that even after everything I will have to try and pursue her more, but to my utmost delight, she not only agreed to be my girlfriend but also said she loved me. After our little confession, we made our way back to the house, I had arranged for dinner and throughout that time I could see how happy she was. This was the first time since I've known her that she seemed so relaxed and carefree. Usually, I could sense some kind of sadness and pain in those pretty eyes. I'm still curious to date and want to know the reason but I can be patient now, knowing that she's already mine. We have a lot of time to know each other's past and secrets. The next day was relaxing, we went to the beach, had a nice swim came back and watched movies. I don't remember my life before this woman came crashing into it, like literally crashing. I chuckled at the memory of when we first met

Anastasia's POV-"Hades! Get your boys to come down soon, we are getting late for Nova's graduation" I yelled at my husband. Yes, you guessed it right, we have two boys, twins- Lucian and Lucius, complete brats. If it weren't for the fact that they were scared of Hades, I wouldn't have been able to manage those two. Nova is graduated today and I can't help but feel, how time flew by so quickly. Hades and I still manage our companies and prepare Nova to take over mine. I still remember how those had proposed to me, it still brings extreme joy to my heart. Hades finally did go for a cliché by going down on his knees and asking me to marry him. The most surprising part would be the whole ordeal with Nova. The sweet child went on her knees too and give me a stack of papers asking me to be her mother. Those were her adoption papers. I couldn't have been happier that day. "Mom, I can't find my socks" I heard Lucian yell from his room. I didn't even step forward when an

Even through her struggle, he managed to tie both her hands to the bedpost. She wriggled and screamed for him to leave her, but he didn't bat an eye. He was enjoying this. When her yells became too out of control, he gagged her with a cloth. "You need to relax darling, how are we going to enjoy this if you keep being a brat." He leaned forwards and wiped her tears, caressing her cheeks. "So beautiful!" She could see the admiration along with lust in his eyes. He pressed himself on her, making her cry out more. "No one can save you this time Ana, not even Hades. You are all mine now. I won't allow anyone to be an obstacle and if they wish to be, then they will end up like Cordelia too" His grin sent chills down her spine. She looked at him with wide eyes, surprised at what he said. 'Did he kill her?' Looking how he had all her attention "You are right darling! I killed her, along with that unborn child." She w

They reached the place after a while, she was still feeling anxious to be alone with him. When they entered the place, she immediately recalled her childhood. She tried to mask her sadness but he already noticed it. "Come on, Let's get you settled inside." She hesitantly walked inside, not knowing what to do anymore. She could only sweet-talk her way out of this situation. "Do you know why I have brought you here darling?" She resisted an urge to roll her eyes at his question and smiled instead "I believe, my surprise is due" He chuckled and sat beside her, giving her a file. She already knew what it was but feigned innocence. "Here!" She read the contents in the file and this time didn't hold back from rolling her eyes "These are the shares your wife transferred you. How is it a surprise for me" She kept the file on the table and looked at him with a raised eyebrow. These documents were fake, but he didn't h

Aurora had to stay up late at her office, to finish up some pending work. Since it was past work time everyone had almost left. "Ms. Pierce, do you need anything else?" Her assistant asked "No! I've got it. You can leave for the day" She smiled gratefully and her focus immediately went back on the work at hand. After a while her phone rang, breaking her focus "Baby girl, the lawyer just called. The documents had been successfully changed and you have all the shares in your hand now. Liam doesn't know about it. He thinks, Cordelia signed away everything to him and yes, the lawyer has been paid. He won't open his mouth." She leaned back with a winning smirk on her face. "Thank you, Lucian! I'll take it from here.""Wait! Are you still working? Why aren't you home yet?" He asked worriedly."I had some urgent matters to deal with, it's almost done. I'll in some time" She said while reading her files again. He sighed as he was used to her working overtime "Fine! Call me if

Liam woke up with a pounding headache and tried to adjust his eyes to the light in the room. He looked around to see an unfamiliar house 'Did I hook up last night?' He thought at first, but seeing that nothing was amiss he disregarded that possibility. "You're awake!" He turned when he heard a familiar voice was dumbfounded 'I spent the night with her!' His eyes widened and tried to recollect what had happened. "Good morning! Here's the medicine and there's the bathroom. Freshen up and have breakfast. My assistant is here if you need anything. I got to go." She said nonchalantly and walked out. By the time he regained his senses, she was already gone. 'What happened?' He was confused when his phone rang aggravating his headache even more. He took the medicine first and then answered the call "Liam!" He got irritated "What is it, Cordelia?" She gulped, "You need to come home. I have something to say to you. It

That evening Aurora was at home, busy designing. This had become her way to relax her nerves after a tiring day. She was fixated on it when her doorbell rang. She walked towards it confused and checked the time.' It's dinner time, Who would be here at this time.' She thought but opened the door anyway. Hades stood leaning to the wall with a bag of takeout in his hand. She shook her head and smiled at the man in front of her. "I'm sure, you haven't had your dinner yet" She broke the silence and walked inside. She took the bag from his hand "Ah! My savior!" She said dramatically and went to prepare the dinner table. "You are still so careless! When will you start taking care of yourself?" He asked exasperatedly. She placed her arms around his neck and he instinctively held her waist and pulled her close "If I start doing that, then why would I need you" She said and pecked his lips. His lips curved into a smile

After a few days, Liam had started getting restless. However, he didn't know how to approach the matter with Cordelia at a time like this so he decided to give her time. He knew she had asked his lawyers to prepare the documents. That day he decided to pay Aurora a visit, so he went to her company. When he reached there, her assistant asked him to wait as she was in a meeting. He waited there patiently for an hour, thinking that it was his fault for not informing or taking a prior appointment. After an hour her office door opening and he saw Hades walking out and Aurora tailing behind him. Hades turned around and pecked her lips bidding her goodbye. Liam's frustration at this couldn't be controlled. His nostrils flared and his jaw clenched at the scene that unfolded in front of him. Hades walked away and it seemed like she didn't notice him standing there. After a few minutes, her assistant came and asked Lia

Liam came out of the bathroom and found her sitting in a daze "We should head back tomorrow. I have a few important things to take care of urgently" She was about to acknowledge and agree with him when her phone rang "Hello?" She said without checking the caller ID "Mrs. Arden, it's your mother…she...She's dead" Cordelia was surprised by the news and she felt incredulous. "How? What happened? She was fine when we left" uncontrollable tears came out of her eyes. Liam looked at her with confusion and stood beside her. "The doctor said she suffered a cardiac arrest" A hand flew up to her mouth and she sobbed uncontrollably. "Cordelia, What's wrong? Why are you crying like this?" He couldn't understand what was going on. "Liam, we need to go back now. It's mom! She's dead." One could see the surprise in his eyes, however, the sudden turn of events made him anxious 'Urgh! I had finally manipulated this stupid woman to give me everything and I was so close to getting it. That old ha

When Liam came back to their room, he saw Cordelia waiting for him. He ignored her and walked towards the bathroom. However, before he could enter he heard her calling him. He looked at her annoyed but didn't say anything, "You wanted me to prove to you that I loved you right? I've called my lawyer and asked him to prepare the share transfer documents. I don't care if I have anything or not, all I want is you to be with me, Liam. Promise me that you won't leave me" She asked, tears falling through her eyes. She looked defeated and tired, if it was someone else then they would have found her pitiful. Liam was happy but his face was brimming with apathy. He scoffed "Stop fooling me Cordelia, I won't believe you till I see those papers signed by you in my hands. I won't believe your words, for all I know you could just be trying to coax me to not divorce you " He turned but she stopped him again"No, these aren't just empty words. As soon as we reach back home, I'll complete the formali
