"Hey, what are you doing?" Sarah asked as soon as he picked up the phone.
"I... Uhh... Running around for job interviews." Elijah answered in an uncertain voice which she thought because he was embarrassed hence she didn't ask about it more.
"Don't stress over it much, Elijah. It will be alright. You will definitely find something. Take care of yourself." She said in a caring tone.
"I will, dearest." He replied in a happy tone.
"Good. Have you had your lunch?" Sarah asked while looking at the table clock which was showing it was lunch time.
"No, I didn't but from that I remember. I have sent lunch for you. Did you get it yet?" He asked, making her feel warm.
"You did? No, I didn't get it yet. It must be on the way." She said with a shrug while looking outside the glass window to see if anyone's coming with the food co
Leave me reviews and gems!
"That was so good, Sarah! I can't believe you were keeping this heaven away from me all these days! Now, after having it, I definitely can't guarantee you if it's going to be the last time." Mary said while relishing the memory of the heavenly food in her mind. "In your dream." Sarah said with a smirk before taking a gulp of water. "No, seriously. He is such a good cook. Where did he learn to cook like this? Is he a professional cook?" Jonah asked while appreciating the food cooked by Elijah truthfully. Sarah was confused after hearing his question. How strange! Why did this question never come to her mind? These questions were really basic yet important. She doesn't know how he learnt to cook so deliciously. She doesn't know if he is a professional cook or not but he could definitely be a professional cook! That's such a great idea. Why didn't it come to her mind befo
"Hello, business partner." King's arrogance filled voice came in her ear, immediately making her frustration go up to another level. "Don't call me that and why did you call me?" She asked in an irritation filled tone. "Someone is frustrated, I see. What's the reason? Is it the relationship we are going to share from now on?" He asked and she could easily read out the tease in his tone. "What new relationship? There's no relationship between us." She stated harshly while looking at the file's content in anger and reading it silently so that she doesn't sound stupid if they have a conversation regarding it now. "We surely do share a relationship, Miss Sarah. At first we were business clients and now we have become business partners. Things between us are progressing very fast. Who knows what relation we share next? Hope it's not something our partners will mind." He sai
IN WATSON MANSION "What did you find out, Mr Roy?" Helena asked eagerly as soon as Mr Roy, her personal lawyer, got seated in front of her. "I found a lot of things, Miss Watson." The old man replied in a neutral tone while his facial expressions were similar to his tone. "Good. Are they beneficial for me or not?" She asked the question one which everything depended on. The lawyer had a thoughtful look on his face. He seemed somewhat worried too which made Helena Watson anxious. "What is the matter, Mr Roy?" She asked with a frown. "The matter is, what I have found in that file that you gave me is way too beneficial for you and that's doubtful." He said with the same thoughtful look. Helena didn't understand anything other than the fact that she is going to benefit from the file. "I didn't understand, Mr Roy. Could you be more clear?" She asked w
AT SARAH'S APARTMENT "Sarah, I think they are here already. Can you please invite them in? I will join you guys soon." Elijah shouted from inside the kitchen. He was busy cooking for the guests. It's the first time someone is coming to their house. No one visited them in the almost three months of their marriage. Not even her parents. So, they both are really excited to invite their first guest. "I got them. Take your time. No need to hurry." Sarah shouted back before running toward the door to open it. It's currently eight in the evening. She came back from the office one and half hours ago. She wanted to come back sooner and help him in preparing everything but she got caught up with back to back meetings. She has informed him long ago about Mary and Jonah joining them. He just said a simple line. "Don't worry, dear. I will handle everything."&
"So, what's going on between you two? Are you dating?" Sarah asked directly to the point, not giving them any chance to escape. Both of their eyes widened at the direct attack and they started to stammer. "Wh... What... Me... And... Huh... Dating... You..." Mary was fumbling with her words and was praying for some miracle to happen which will save her from the embarrassment she is going to face now. It seems like her prayer was heard and the bell rang at the right moment. She let out a sigh of relief but at the next moment she was confused like everyone else in the room. "Did you invite someone else too, Sarah?" Mary asked. "Were we expecting someone else too, Sarah?" Elijah asked at the same time as Mary. Sarah looked at them in confusion and then looked at the time. "No, I didn't invite anyone else nor am I expecting anyone. I don't know
"Can you guys please stop it?!" Elijah stood up from his place at last, unable to bear the cat fights anymore. Following his lead, Jonah and Nick stood up too and all three of them went forward to separate their individual partners from each other. Nick and Jonah went first and tried to pull Natasha and Mary away from each other by their shoulders but their one simple glare made them take two steps back. "You guys are useless." Elijah said with a small roll of his eyes and shook his head at them. "Yeah? Why don't you show us how it's done, Mr expert?" Nick taunted with his arm folded and Jonah looked at Elijah the same way. "Yeah, show us how it's done. Sarah has the worst temper among three of them, I am sure you are going to get it worse-..." Jonah couldn't complete his sentence as Elijah's next action made him gulp it all down as he watc
"It's about what?!" "Samantha and Mr King?!" "What's it about Mr King?!" "Have you lost it or what?!" Apart from Natasha and Nick, everyone else had a comment to make. No one blames them though. The sentence which Natasha just uttered was like the most logicless thing ever in the whole world. Damn! Samantha and Mr King? Those two names don't even sit well with each other. The room was soon filled with more questions, similar to the previous ones. Natasha was already expecting this kind of reaction so she was prepared for it and waited for them to calm down and one of them to take the lead of asking the question. She was expecting it to be Sarah but surprisingly enough it was the last person she was expecting. "What do you mean by Miss Samantha and Mr King? Even uttering the names tog
"You want to set Mr King up with Samantha?! Is that what you are saying?!" Sarah asked in shock. "Yes." Natasha calmly nodded at her. Everyone in the room was too shocked to react or say anything. After apologising to Sarah, Natasha at last let out the reason why she was here without invitation. It's basically to use Sarah's contact with Mr King and set him up with Samantha. That sounds as crazy as the possibility of it's happening in actually. There is absolutely no chance for Samantha and Mr King to end up together. According to Natasha, Samantha is really heartbroken after what happened with her because of Steven and from the past few days she is doing a lot of research on Mr King. Natasha also said that it was Samantha who said to her that she is being intrigued by Mr King but at the same time she is in depression with the things in her life. So, Natasha thought it
"Where is she?""How is she?""How did this happen?""I want to see her!"Four different voices exclaimed as they all made an entry at the same time. 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.
