A bullet shot through the direction from where the old drunk man was holding a rifle. His white mustache was covered in wine and his eyes screamed fury. Without thinking much and being upset about the fact that the stock he bought had the lowest price because the one standing in front of him, made him go crazy.

The guards of Elio wore bulletproof vests so they were about to take the shot for Ayah. Before they could, Elio stood in front and a bullet was shot in his back. Everyone screamed in the area.

Elio’s eyes locked with Ayah for a brief moment. The thing he saw in her was fear but no pity. As if her prisoner died, she would be free forever. But when she would, she would not regret his death or grief at all.

But Ayah’s heart moved when she saw blood on him. Elio fell on her as Ayah held him. Protecting his head with her hand, she also fell back. The commotion later turned into chaos. Elio’s bodyguards moved everyone out of the way and picking him up they carried him to the car.

    “The news of death?” Elio heard Alex from a distance though Alex thought he was inaudible enough. He smiled nervously at Elio. When Ayah was done feeding him, she left the room. Elio signaled Alex to come into the room. He did while having his feet make no sound. He stood in front of Elio. “What are you talking about?” Elio asked. He was suspicious of his friends because he could probably hide a piece of bad news for his bad health. But no matter how bad his health was, Elio never skipped on business. And he could depict this as a business. Alex was scratching his neck constantly which surely meant that he wanted to say something but could not bring himself to. “Spit it out,” Elio demanded. “Your company stocks are going disastrously down. The companies from each big fish are cutting their deals in hopes of not getting scammed.” Alex said. Elio sat up. “I thought we already compensated for what we did. What is bugging them now?”Alex sighed. “They think that your business strate

    “Mia?” Ayah squealed almost trying to hide the excitement and surprise at the fact that Mia was half hanging on her balcony looking just fine with that ridiculous smile of hers. She let out a panicked breath as she pulled Mia inside. When she pulled her, she immediately lost her balance and both of them fell on the hard floor. They tried to make no sound as their butt started the pain. Mia was trying to contain her laughter as Ayah looked at her side in pure disbelief. “Are you seriously laughing at this situation? We were about to die!”Mia held her hand on her mouth trying her best to control herself but failed as she fell into silent laughter. Ayah shook her head at the childishness of her friends who had no seriousness regarding any situation. She stood up as Mia forwarded her hand expecting help. When Ayah held her hand, she stood up to get up when she left her hand, making Mia fall back with a yelp. Mia brushed herself and stood up on her own this time. “I was about to fall.

She realized that something terrible would happen whenever she cut or hurt herself. Right now, standing on the kitchen wall, she felt horrified. Mrs. Rose was standing right beside her while cutting onions. She did not see Alice’s hand otherwise she would have helped her. She was immersed in her thoughts.Alice left to bandage her hand. When she came back, she resumed her work. Mrs. Rose stopped cutting onions and looked at Alice.

Alice turned her whole body towards her. She found someone with the same feeling as her. But she felt more anxious about it. If two people had mutual strang

    In front of Elio, not a kid was standing, but a man and the only man who was not scared of him. The intensity in his eyes was the same as in his Grey eyes. Grey against Grey. The kid was dangerously similar to him. The most significant similarity was that they were not afraid of pain. They thrived for it. Haru was innocent. He did not know what he was doing to the man in front of him. The way he was clenching Elio’s heart. The cold heart nobody was able to touch except for Ayah who could at least make him feel humane. His choke-hold was not tight. But it was enough to make a kid cry. Haru just stood there normally. As if he was used to it. Elio wanted to kill the kid. Elio, if he could, would have begged for the pain in his body because the pain he had suffered in his mind was making him want to kill himself.Elio left the hold on the kid.

The bag fell away from her hands. Her freedom was snatched away before it could be given. She wanted to run but her legs were tied by his piercing gaze which made her feel like a statue.

Ayah’s dream was to be able to go and lay in a garden without a worry of the world but her sufferings chased her to this point. True happiness was foreign to her. Ayah sighed and removed the duvet off of her. Elio left after feeding her a plate of brown rice and chicken. She hated the fact that she was afraid of him so much now. She was always afraid of him but the change in his demeanour made her shiver. It was almost like black clouds were shadowing over him. She was helpless against him. Ayah took a deep breath.

    Chapter Seventy-Seven“Would you like something to eat?” Mrs. Rose asked Ayah, who was looking outside of the window with no expression on her face. Her face was getting paler day by day. This could not be ignored by Alice who was feeling heartbroken looking at that girl. Alice sat beside Ayah and stroked her dark hair with her hands gently. She did not know how to comfort the girl who heard the loss of her mother after years or a girl who was raped by her husband. Ayah’s painful screams were heard by every soul in the mansion churning their hearts. Elio’s ruthlessness could not be controlled by anyone. “Did she eat something?” Alice asked Mrs. Rose was standing at the door of the bedroom with a stoned expression on her face. Her lips were turning blue and her old wrinkles were more visible on her face now. Mrs. Rose shook her head. She felt an unbearable pain in her chest. Her plans failed.

But Grey’s father was a different breed. He was the general of the military and he knew the ways that could bend someone to perfection. He was trained so he trained. His disappointment of having a daughter was so immense that he mixed that feeling with his aggressiveness of the training of his daughter.

    Chapter Seventy-FiveThe sun was hiding behind the clouds as the misty wind blew around the gardens. The water droplets on the flowers fell on the ground but no sound was heard. Nobody heard anything now because the storm last night was too loud. Everybody heard but no one said anything against it. It was a chaotic silence. Ayah was looking at the ceiling of the bedroom. Her breathing was even and calm, unlike last night. Her tears on the side of her face dried up. She felt like her whole body was numb. She looked beside her. Her husband who was sleeping peacefully on his back did not budge when she tried to get up. Ayah wiped her tears and tried to get up from the bed. She felt a tug on her waist. Before she could look back, Elio pulled her on the bed. She gasped. He hovered on top of her and buried his face inside her neck. She felt disgusted. But she did not have any strength inside her to push him off or resist him. He left small peppery kisses on her nape and neck then smiled.

    Chapter Seventy-FourElio and Ayah both of them were looking at each other with the same level of resentment as the other. Both of their eyes reflected danger. Ever since they crossed paths with each other this was the first time that both of them were in the same level of emotion, resentment, and hatred. Their potential to be dangerous was just equal. The love between them faded away as soon as it happened. Those peaceful moments filled with sweetness and serenity that put out the fire inside his heart were crushed like pieces of glass. It was as if the bottle of poison woke the monsters inside him. Ayah was standing still and steel. Her eyes could not believe that once again she had been hit by a man who had been lying to her and abusing her existence. The first one was her father now it is her husband who stood there with equal vengeance in his eyes. Both of them wanted answers for each other but none of them started first. Mrs. Rose took in the tension between them. She gulped.

    Two souls amidst the chaotic lies around them not being able to grasp the reality. They not being able to differentiate between foes or friends. Her heart was tangled in his clasp of redeemer vision whilst his mind could not digest the fact that she could ever hold venom in her chest. The darkness was wiping out but the radiation of light disappeared into eternity. Ayah and Elio can never go back now. The truth has been unveiled but none of them realized that it was not them but the ones who wanted to sever the bond between them. Their worldly life confused them to such an extent that nothing could match the pieces. Elio gripped the poison in his hand tightly, so tight as if his life depended on it. Mia and Neko watched him storm out of the apartment. Elio’s eyes were bright red and swollen but there were no signs of tears. Inei watched him go from behind and her nasty smirk sparked suspicions in Mia’s mind. Mia walked towards her and gripped her arm. “What the heck are you trying

    Chapter Seventy-Two“Take a deep breath,” Mrs. Rose instructed Ayah, who was on the verge of hyperventilating. She closed her eyes to relax and calm herself down but was unable due to the sudden brush of betrayal in front of her eyes. What did she just witness? Her husband, Elio was being touched by another woman while he was closing his eyes enjoying the pleasure. What kind of a scene was it? She felt her heart ripped apart. Was it justifying? Did she not intend to kill her husband a few days ago? Did she not think of it? Then why is her heart ripping into pieces? She gripped her chest as tears streamed down her eyes. She could not breathe properly. Is this who he was all along? A cheater? All he said was a lie all along? Was he playing her all this time? "Calm down, darling." Mrs. Rose patted her back. Right when Elio was out of the door of his bedroom, Ayah came down the stairs and the only person who dragged her into the maid's quarters was Mrs. Rose. She locked the door and

    Chapter Seventy-One“What in the world are you doing here?” Elio snaps at Inei who stands in front of his car with a smile that does not offer anything good. She puts her hair behind her shoulders. "Well, I am just celebrating my return as you won't." She said and opened the car door. She placed herself on the seat beside him which fueled Elio's anger to doom. "I don't want to deal with you now. Get out!" He growled but her unbothered expression told him enough. She is not an easy girl so he does what is best with her. Her stubborn attitude was put up by her father but he doubted it was the case for him. He closed his eyes tightly out of frustration. "I said, get out. NOW." His voice boomed in the garage. But she did not move a muscle and instead tilted her head and smiled at him again. "Take me where you are going." She said in a sing-song voice. Elio was surprised by her audacity. No one had the guts to mess with him, especially in such a situation where he was going to Ayah in

    Chapter SeventyCarlo stood in front of Elio for further instructions as he looked at his Young Master in a bad state of mind. Elio was sweating profusely even though the weather was chilly due to the rain shower. He looked like a mess though a charming one. Elio was effortlessly beautiful. He didn't even try to look half as gorgeous as he was. God had forged him especially perhaps because his face was unmatchable. Elio did not look like anyone else; it was as if he inherited half of the beauty of mankind. Even in a state managed to look breathtaking. Carlo gazed at Elio with his mouth half-open. Men could not help but admire him. He had the magnificence, the money, the brain, and quite everything any man could dream of. “Should I prepare some cold bath for you?” Carlo asked. Elio gulped, his head was thrown back on the chair and his eyes were closed. The black shirt he wore was stuck to his body like a second skin and his visible forearms looked hotter as his veins popped out. St
