In the city's most elite Club, Theo booked a private room for them. Food, alcohol and music is playing on the speakers. Nina, Ella and Jeremiah are dancing to the music. None of them are dancing to the tune. But all three of them looked happy while doing their dance-like thing. Ella is laughing whole heartedly for the first time after her husband passed away. Jeremiah is being himself after a very hectic day at work. Nina is happy. The three of them have already drank some beer and shots of Taquila. It's just been an hour since they came here, and the party is going on strong. On the other hand, Liam and Theo are watching them with amusement. Theo is not drinking as much. He has to drive, so he is not drinking. On the other hand Liam is nursing his whiskey slowly, unlike the other three. "These guys have gone crazy" Liam commented. Theo chuckled at his comment. "Indeed they are" he agreed. Liam turned his attention to Theo, who is specially watching only Nina. "Looks lik
"Theo, I know I was wrong. But I thought she harmed Aunt Agatha and you are going soft on her. That's why I tried to drive her away from your life" Chelsea lied. That made Theo so angry, that he glared at her over his shoulder. "What? Who do you think you are to drive my wife away from me? Did I ever ask you to do that? Or did you see Nina pushing my mother down? You lied and made me misunderstand her in the first place. If someone should be driven away from me, then it should be you" he snapped with anger. He is more angry about the fact that she is judging Nina when she is the culprit here. Chelsea was stunned to hear that. While Nina relaxed a little. She didn't like Chelsea and was expecting Theo to defend her once again. He always choose Chelsea over Nina. So Nina doesn't want to embarrass herself by staying here any longer. But to her surprise, Theo stopped her. These days, he is defending her every time she needs him. "Theo? I am your childhood friend. We four are like pea
After Chelsea left, Nina was feeling so low, that she started drinking to conceal her pain and insecurity. Soon, she is so drunk, that she doesn't even know that she is speaking her mind and not keeping her feelings to herself like she usually does with Theo. "You like her, don't you?" Nina slurred and poked Theo's chest with her index finger. Theo sighed. This is the twentieth time she is asking him the same question. And he already clarified that he doesn't like Chelsea at all. But Nina refused to believe him. She is so drunk, that there is no way to convince her. "Baby, I don't like her. You are drunk, why don't we go home now?" he suggested, trying to coax her into leaving. She is still sitting on his lap, much to his misery. It's not like he doesn't want her to sit. He is liking it too much that he wants to kiss her badly. Strands of her hair came out of her bun. Her face is looking flushed and red. She is like the most irresistible temptation which he cannot have. He is try
Nina woke to the silent hum of machines. Her head is pounding and her throat is dry and scratchy. Her long beautiful lashes blinked open to take in the strange room with white walls and ceiling. So many wires are attached to her hands. Her body feels sour too. Slowly she recalled what happened. Her handsome and extremely rich husband Theodore Morrison, whom she loves more than herself asked her for a divorce. Three days ago..."Sign these divorce papers. I will compensate you well for this one year long marriage of ours" Theo's cold voice rang loudly in the other wise quite Morrison manor. His ice cold gaze only held anger and loathing for Nina. He never touched her in this one year. She tried everything to win him over, but in vain. Nina gasped with shock. He rarely comes home. So when he did, Nina was so happy. But he destroyed her happiness with those cold indifferent words."Theo, what did I do to make you hate me so much? I always loved you with everything I have. Then why?" s
"Miss, you should not come out like this. You are still so weak" one of the nurses urged Nina when they found her standing outside in the corridor. The nurse felt pity for Nina who was crying outside."He is not worth it. Come, you are still young and have a beautiful future ahead of you. Don't let a man like that ruin your happiness like this. If he doesn't want you, then you can find someone who would cherish the ground you walk on. Come, you have to recover first for that to happen" Ella urged Nina.Ella's words made Nina look away from Theo and Chelsea and concentrate on the beautiful woman standing beside her."I am sorry, I can't recollect your name" Nina said trying to remember where she met this woman who looked familiar.Ella laughed with mirth at her words."That's because we never met before. Let me introduce myself. I am Ella Vincent. The CEO of the Perfume company 'Fragrance' " Ella introduced herself.That's when Nina recollected where she saw Ella before. She saw her on
After three days, Nina was discharged from the hospital. She gathered her things and got dressed in the clothes Ella brought for her. Even though she was absent for one week, no one cared to find out what happened to her. Neither her husband is demanding her for a divorce or her father and his new family. In this one year that she was married to Theodore, she completely lost touch with a few friends she had in the past. Her aspiring career was forgotten and Theodore became the centre of her universe. Now, after the accident when she almost lost her life, she realised that nothing is more important than self love and her own happiness. "So, what are you planning to do now?" Ella asked her.Ella offered to drive her to the villa which she started to live in after she married Theodore. Ella submitted the document to her technical team who was reviewing it. "I am planning to sign those damn documents and free myself from the shackles of unwanted marriage which I inflicted upon myself" N
Nina stood outside her childhood home and recollected her childhood memories related to this place when her mother was still alive. A shadow of sorrow cast her flawless features. The sun was sitting behind her, and it made her look like an angel. But her eyes are cold and distant. She is not very excited to meet her father's family. Before she could ring the doorbell, the door opened from inside and her step mother greeted her with a smile."Oh Nina, you came just on time. Your father was waiting for you" her stepmother Barbara said with a frown. Nina didn't say anything. If Barabara saw her bandages which are difficult to miss, she didn't comment and ignored it altogether. Nina was not expecting anything else either. Nina followed after Barbara who led her to their dining area. She noticed that her father and Silas were already seated in their usual spots. There is also another woman who was sitting beside Silas. 'Must be his new flavour of the month ' Nina thought about the lady
"Nina, looks like you are upset now. Let's talk about this calmly tomorrow over lunch. Come, sit down and eat your dinner" William pushed his anger down and coaxed Nina.But Nina is not in the mood to play a happy family with them."I lost my appetite" with that said, she walked away in the general direction of her room. She quickly packed everything she needed before she left her father's house. "What is wrong with her?" Silas asked no one in general.William frowned, but didn't reply.'If Nina really decided to divorce Theodore, then no one can save me from this crisis. I need to coax her gently to change her decision ' he decided.The next morning, Nina received a call from Ella, urging her to quickly come to 'Fragrance'. The company owned by the Vincent's. Nina skipped breakfast and rushed to the company. Ella didn't mention what happened. But her tone said it all. It is urgent. The moment Nina stepped inside the lobby of Fragrance, she spotted Ella who was waiting for her. Ella
