"What took you so long, Elijah?" Helena asked in a stern tone, waiting for him to answer her. 

Helena was an impatient woman. She always wants things to happen in her way and they better happen first. Another reason for her to be so impatient and maybe a little anxious is because of Sarah Watson. 

She knows Sarah enough to know that Sarah is a smart woman. Even though Sarah is the youngest among all the heirs, she is the smartest. She knows that Sarah always learnt from everything and made herself strong. Sarah is an intelligent woman as well as a business run in her blood. Sarah knows how cruel and crazy the business world can get and Helena was aware of that. So, she was really interested in knowing about the conversation between her and her future husband whom she has chosen for her. 

"I am sorry, ma'am. After the meeting, Miss Sarah Watson wanted me to drop her somewhere. Then I had a sudden emer

    "So, uhh… you wanted to say something?" Elijah asked in an unsure tone, not knowing what else to say. "Why? I can't call you without any reason?" Sarah asked. "No, no! That's not what I meant. Of course, you can call me anytime. But you weren't saying anything and… and I didn't know what to say. So, I…" He trailed off, not finding any more words to defend himself. "Hey, hey! Calm down. I was just pulling your legs." Sarah said and laughed on the phone, making him sigh in relief. He heard her laugh with a small smile at the corner of his lips. Her smile is so flawless and soothing in his ears that he can't describe it in words. "Did I make you nervous, Elijah?" Sarah asked, really enjoying the phone conversation. Sarah looked at the glass wall at her left and saw her reflection. She was smiling and the frown that always stays on her forehead was not there at this moment

    She wished her father who just nodded at her in response. "You never ask me for any permission. So, why bother asking now about such a simple thing?" She replied in a cold and distanced tone. Her father's face fell a little after getting such a cold response from his dearest daughter. He nodded at her and sat at one of the chairs. "With whom were you talking with? I think I disturbed you." He said in a casual tone, trying to start a conversation. She looked at her father with squinted eyes. She knows her father. He is a straightforward man. But whenever he talks about other unnecessary things, it means he wants to say something but doesn't know how to start. She decided to play along with him and see where it goes. "No, it's okay. You didn't disturb me. It was my friend." She replied and he nodded at her. "You were supposed to meet him today. Did

    ONE WEEK LATER It's been one week since the time Sarah and Elijah met and their friendship started. This week they didn't get the chance to meet again but they talked over the phone a few times. All the time it was only Sarah who initiated the call. Not even for once, Elijah called but Sarah could feel that he felt happy whenever she called. Maybe he is hesitant to get casual with her and Sarah understands him. So, she decided to give him time to get used to the friendship. It's been one week since she again started to talk with her parents. Everything almost settled with her father. But they are still a little bit awkward around each other because that day her father gave an answer to her question. Which didn't quite satisfy her. She and Elijah are still living apart, in their own places. They still haven't decided on what they are going to do. She lives in her apartment and occasionally comes to her p

    "Like this! Like the way you are being now! So carefree. So sacrificing, such a pushover. You always let grandma bully you since childhood. You always let Liam, Samantha and Natasha bully you and walk over you. You never protest. You always accept whatever they say. You never say no! Why?" He exclaimed in frustration. She heard him with concentration and a beautiful smile made its place on her lips when she heard him which frustrated him some more. "See! Like this! You are always taking their bullshit with a smile. I hate this. I hate this attitude of yours." He exclaimed and looked away from her. She let out a chuckle. "You hate my most favourite weapon. That's so amusing and strange at the same time." She said which made him confused. "Don't talk like this with me." He said and let out a breath. Even though he was almost one year older than her, she always left him surprised with her mature talk

    "Good evening, everyone." Helena Watson greeted after taking a seat. She was the last one to make her presence known at the dinner table. Well, she is not the last one, someone else is yet to come and join them. But right now everyone from the family is present in the room. "Good evening." Everyone mumbled a wish back. Helena looked at everyone with a smirk on her face and nodded at herself when she noticed that she got the power over them. She is a sucker of power and that's the reason she didn't pass down the authority to her children. But now that she is doing this, she is going to make sure to make them work hard for this. "It's so nice to have all of you at a family dinner after so long." She started talking. "But today some more people will join us." She announced and looked at Samantha and Natasha's faces and they looked back at her with excitement and a smirk.

    "What is it, grandma?" Samantha asked with curiosity. Even though she was sure it's something about Sarah and that's what excites her a lot more. "Before that, I am going to ask Sarah something." She said and looked at Sarah. Sarah looked back. "Go on, grandmother." Sarah said after nodding her way with a serious look on her face. "Do you have anything else to say about what we discussed in our last meeting?" She asked and Sarah took a sharp intake of breath which Elijah nodded. Her grip on Elijah's wrist tightened which she was still grabbing tightly in her hands. "No, grandmother. We all discussed it already that day and I am not someone to move away from my words. What we discussed that day remains the same till now and it's not going to change." She answered and gave Elijah a small look in between but soon turned away. Helena nodded at her. "Okay,

    "What is it you wanted to talk to me about, Sarah?" Helena asked directly to the point as soon as they both entered the room and Sarah closed the door behind. Sarah looked at her with squinted eyes, trying to read her as well as intimidate her. Which was working to some level but Helena wasn't a small player either. She was experienced in this sector. So, she kept her face blank. "I don't know what your motives are behind marrying me to Elijah who is a driver but you should stop it." Sarah spoke up after a few seconds of silence and she made sure to keep her words loud and clear. But Helena decided to play clueless here and looked at her in confusion. "What motives? What should I stop? What are you talking about?" She asked with a small frown, making her acting look more real. "You very well know what I am talking about, grandmother. You ca

    LATER THAT NIGHT Silence, there was silence from both sides of the line. No one talked and waited for the other person to say something. They both wanted to say something but didn't know how. There was a lot going on in their minds. "I am sorry…" At last Sarah broke the silence as she couldn't keep it to herself anymore. Her tone was filled with genuine guilt. A guilt that she shouldn't feel but yet it was snatching her peace of mind. Elijah kept quiet from the other side of the phone and waited for her to complete whatever she wanted to say. Because he understood that it took a lot of self motivation to start the conversation and if he interrupts her now, she will stop talking and won't be able to complete whatever she wanted to say. "I know what happened at the dining table when everyone was gone. And I am really sorry that it happened. I was careless enough to le

Elijah, who was lost in deep thoughts, came back to the world and looked at them in a little shock.There was Jonah, Mary, Nick and Natasha who one after another said and asked those things. All of their faces were filled with worry and fear.But among them, Natasha's expression surprised him a lot. It looks like she cried on her way here. She was that scared for Sarah! Unbelievable!"Elijah? Back to earth and tell us what happened here?!" Natasha exclaimed once again as she shook him.He looked at her with a small frown looking at the closed hospital door with a clenched jaw."Sarah is in there,

    “Where is Sarah?” Elijah asked with a frown as he looked around the room, looking for her frantically. “Who are you looking for, sir?” A doctor asked in confusion after coming forward. “Sarah! Where is she?” Elijah asked in a panicked tone as he just remembered her. He remembered that she didn’t sound good when they were talking on the phone. She must be in some danger. He felt like beating himself up for forgetting about her. “Who is Sarah,sir?” The doctor asked in a fearful tone. “The one who called me to inform me about Eliana! She was here. I heard you guys when we were on a call. Where is she now?” He asked at the top of his voice. The doctor got scared once again. “We didn’t see anyone when we came here, sir. We got busy with Miss Eliana as soon as we entered the room.” The doctor said and he let out a frustrated groan. “Only god

    Elijah felt like his whole body was going to turn cold in anticipation and fear. He tried to call Sarah quite a few times. It kept ringing but no one picked it up. He called the guards as well but no one was picking up the call. He gritted his teeth hard in anger. He was going to kill all of them. He reached the hospital and ran inside it, leaving the car unattended, without parking. He ran toward the elevator to find it taking longer to come down as usual but he didn't have much time. So, he ran toward the stairs to take it to reach the floor where his sister was. Hopefully Sarah was there too. "Oh god! Please let both of them be safe. They both mean a lot to me. They are my everything. Please god. I have begged you for a lot of time but he never showed any mercy but please just this one." He prayed loudly and frantically as he ran upstairs. He was breathless by the time he reached the floor. His heart start

    Sarah forgot about everything else at that moment and walked toward the hospital room as fast as she could. She came to meet Eliana. She was supposed to stay there with Eliana for a few minutes before going to the office. She had a really important meeting today which she can't postpone or delay anymore because that's going to mess up her schedule. As she neared the room, she suddenly felt a bad energy coming from the room. The feeling was nerve wracking. It made her heart beat badly, for some negative vibe. She felt so scared suddenly and she didn't know why she was feeling so but it made her want to curl in some corner. It was so so bad! She slowly advanced to the room where Eliana was. Her heart was still beating crazily while her leg was wobbling. Her hand was shaking as she put her hand on the handle. She took some deep breaths. She looked back at the guards and they were still looking at their front with no expressions on their fac

    THE NEXT MORNING "Good morning, beautiful." Sarah rolled her eyes at his new nickname and cheekiness. "Good morning, Mr King. Can you please tell me where you find such nicknames every new day?" Sarah asked with a sigh while walking through the hospital corridor. "Well, that's for me to know and you to find out." He said with the same level of cheekiness. She shook her head at him. "How are you today?" He asked after a few seconds. "I am good." She answered in a casual tone. "Are you happy?" He asked once again, making her confused. "Why are you asking that?" She asked with a raised eyebrow which obviously he couldn't see. "Well, you got your husband, your love." He stated and she let out a chuckle. "I am not even going to ask

    "What is this man doing here? I just lost my appetite!" Samantha exclaimed like a spoiled brat as soon as she saw Elijah sitting on the dining table. Sarah frowned at her while holding Elijah's hand under the table. But she didn't say anything. "What's there to lose appetite, Samantha? Because as far as I remember about your desert preferences a few months ago-..." Natasha couldn't complete her sentence as Samantha's glare shut her up so she just smirked at her in reply. "Don't you think you have started talking too much these days? Are you sure it's good for your health and peace?" Samantha asked Natasha in a mean tone. "Oh don't worry about my health and peace. I belong to the group of those people who ruin other people's health and peace. So, I know how to protect mine well." Natasha replied back sassily while smirking at Samantha while Samantha was fuming in anger.

    "Hello, Jordan. I am very happy to see you but I would have been happier if you had knocked before entering the room." Helena said in pure sarcasm, making Jordan wonder from where does this woman get all this humour. But he was too furious to care about that at that moment. "That bastard is playing a double game with us." He growled in fury as he slammed on the sofa where Elijah was seated previously. "Who are you talking about? And why do you sound so furious?" Helena asked, suddenly getting serious. "I am talking about your so-called master pawn! That damn driver, Elijah. He is playing some double game with us and that makes me furious." He said with gritted teeth, making her look at him with a deeper frown. "What are you talking about?" She asked in a blank tone. "I was just outside the door when you were talking with him." He said and before

    ON THE OTHER SIDE "May I come in, ma'am?" Elijah knocked on the door. "Come in, Elijah." Helena spoke up with a small and it creeped Elijah so bad that he felt a shiver run past his spine. He kept his face blank as he got inside the room. It wasn't her office room this time, it was her bedroom. It made the situation more awkward for Elijah. He didn't close the door behind him this time. "Good evening, ma'am." He greeted her politely and she nodded at him with the same smile. "Very good evening, Elijah. I am seeing you after so long. How are you?" She asked in a tone as if she was his biggest well-wisher. "Thank you for asking, ma'am. I am good. I hope the same for you." He said in a low tone while looking down on the floor. "I am good as well, as you can see." She said with a smile. "Why don't you take a seat?" She as

    "Now, tell me, what's going on?" Sarah asked as soon as they were inside Natasha's room and closed the door behind. They both took a seat on her bed and Sarah patiently waited for Natasha to open her mouth. But she sat there silently, looking down at her hands, without letting out a single word. Sarah looked at her with a worried frown. "Natasha? Is everything alright?" She asked slowly, in a tone filled with nothing but worry."I don't know, Sarah. My life is in a mess currently and I don't know what to do." Natasha said in agony while breaking down completely. Sarah's eyes widened and she was quick to lean forward and hug her tightly."Oh my god, Natasha! Please don't cry. Everything is going to be alright. Please stop crying." Sarah cooed in a caring tone while rubbing her back soothingly to calm her down.Natasha cried hugging Sarah back, without saying anything and Sarah understood that she needed time.
