Tensions rose in the room as Neel's rebellious attitude clashed with Yohan's uncompromising authority.
Natalie scolded Neel again, "Neel, what are you saying? Ricky has given you money many times, and he never questioned you. He even gave you more than you asked for."
Neel frowned, "I know, mom, but I don't want to go abroad, that's it."
"Shut up, Neel," Natalie snapped.
"You know you'll go if I want you to, whether you like it or not," Yohan said, smirking.
Neel became serious and silent for a moment, then said, "Okay, then. I'll go abroad on one condition."
Yohan raised an eyebrow, "I can send you without listening to your condition, but go ahead, tell me."
"I want to marry Sara," Neel declared.
Everyone present was shocked and looked at Yohan with fear.
"Do you even know what you're asking for?" Natalie held Neel's arm, trying to reason with him.
"I know, mom. Today, I'll tell you the truth. Sara and I liked ea
The cloudy evening matched the tension in the air, and Yohan knew that he had to get to the bottom of the situation before it escalated further.As Yohan stood there, contemplating the mysterious turn of events, he realized that he needed to resume all the pending investigations that he had halted after his divorce. He had put aside some crucial matters to focus on his personal life, but now, with Bruno's strange behaviour and Natalie's considerations, he couldn't afford to ignore them any longer.Yohan entered the study room, his eyes scanning the floor, taking in the scattered papers. His instincts immediately kicked in, sensing that something was amiss. He walked carefully among the strewn documents, each step calculated and deliberate.As he glanced at each paper, his sharp eyes caught sight of a particular document that seemed out of place. Pressing the cigarette between his lips, he bent down and picked it up, his expression turning serious as he read its
Yohan's mind was racing with thoughts as he glanced at the DNA reports once again. He felt a mix of regret and strangeness, unsure of how Bruno must have felt when Yohan divorced his daughter, Sara.Just then, a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. "Come in," he said in his hoarse voice.Natalie entered the study room and said, "Bruno is awake. He wants to see you."Yohan quickly put out his cigarette and stood up. "Nobody will come inside," he said firmly.He grabbed the reports and made his way to Bruno's bedroom. Natalie watched with a tight heart as Yohan seemed to have found something important.Yohan walked into the bedroom, his expression stern and his eyes piercing through Bruno. He threw the reports on the bed near Bruno's legs.Bruno's face turned red, and he looked at Yohan, who gave him a cold stare. Bruno felt regretful, and he lowered his gaze."Will you speak now? Or do you want me to handle this in a more unplea
"You are so careless!" Kevin scolded playfully as he draped his coat over Sara's shoulder.She smiled gently."Why do I always have to remind you to wear your coat?" he teased, looking into her beautiful eyes.Sara smiled, "You finished work?"Kevin nodded, and they started walking. "Not yet. I still have work. I think I'll have to skip my sleep tonight.""Then let's go inside. I will warm up some food for you. You didn't eat..."He interrupted, "Listen to me." He took her hand and they stopped, gazing at each other."I'm not hungry. If I feel like it, I'll eat during the flight," he said."Flight? Are you going somewhere?"He nodded, "I have a business trip tonight."She became serious, "But... it's so sudden... Is it urgent?"Kevin nodded, looking deeply into her eyes."Oh..." Sara lowered her gaze, wanting to ask more but not wanting him to leave. She didn't want to be alone and feared getting caught
At seven-thirty in the evening, Ryan Jenkins sauntered into the cabin. He noticed the overflowing ashtrays on the table and Yohan was deeply engrossed in something on his laptop. Clearing his throat, Ryan tried to get his attention."Done with your movie shootings abroad?" Yohan asked."I had to wrap it up quickly. Can't wait to get back to Gracie and my little one," Ryan replied, taking a seat in front of Yohan and leaning back on the chair."Dude, how long have you been glued to that seat? You're turning into a chain smoker. You seriously need to quit," Ryan remarked.Yohan shut the laptop and leaned back on his chair, taking a drag of his cigarette. "Just trying to figure out what went down during my absence," he replied, blowing smoke into the air.“What's eating you, man?"Yohan headed towards the bar counter, grabbing a bottle of whisky. "Tell me something," he said, pouring whisky into two glasses. "Was Sara really that desperat
"If you keep calling me so sweetly, I won't be able to resist coming there, even if it means all the work has to wait. Oh, Sara! I should have brought you along with me. If I had, after finishing work, I'd be talking to you all night, with you sitting right in front of me."Sara blushed even more, "You're talking like we were going to share the same room.""We can if you want.”"Kevin, we..." Sara stiffened.“We live under the same roof. Why can't we share a room?" Kevin said, sounding serious. “We can figure out a way to be together. Can't we? It can't be that hard.""I don't know what you're getting at, Kevin.""Yes, you do. You know exactly what I mean."Sara's heart started racing, and Kevin could hear her breath quickening."Good night." Kevin ended the call and leaned back on the couch, closing his eyes. The image of Sara's face was stuck in his mind, making him feel frozen with desire. She had no idea h
Yohan remained in a daze, staring at the closed door. He couldn't understand his conflicting feelings.Hadn't he initially thought of giving the gown to Sara as a gift, a symbol of closure for their relationship?Then why did he feel a pang of discomfort when Leslie claimed it as her gown?Why did he still feel that the gown only truly belonged to Sara?The gown had been a part of their special day. Despite the divorce, he couldn't shake off the emotional attachment he had with those memories.As the minutes ticked by, Leslie finally emerged from the changing room, wearing the gown with a radiant smile."Wow, Yohan, look at me! This gown is simply stunning!" Leslie beamed, twirling in the gown."Hmm," Yohan tried to push away the thoughts that continued to linger.Yohan couldn't help but feel that only Sara could truly look beautiful in that gown. Despite Yohan having it specially made for Sara, he didn't find Leslie as enchant
In the car, Sara was sitting in Kevin's arms, resting her head on his shoulder. They didn't talk on the way home. When the car stopped, Kevin glanced at Assistant Rob and signalled him with his eyes to leave. As soon as Rob was gone, Kevin looked at Sara's pale face and noticed her grip on his arm. It warmed his heart. She clung to him like a baby monkey to its mother."Sara..." Kevin's deep voice broke the silence, and Sara Owen closed her eyes tightly, holding on to him tighter. Kevin wrapped his arms around her and held her in a tight embrace. Her face was near his chest, and he could feel her tears."I left you alone for a few hours, and you're already crying again. Hm?" Kevin said softly.Sara opened her eyes, "I don't understand, Kevin. Just ten minutes before the meeting, I copied my file from the laptop to the pendrive. But when I got to the meeting room, something else was there. I tried to explain it to Miss Gandhi, but she thought I was making excuses
Feeling the growing tension between them, Kevin slowly parted her legs, moved even closer, and placed his hands on her waist before planting a soft kiss on her lips. The moment was filled with an electrifying energy as their lips met.They locked eyes, their gazes filled with passion. Sara lowered her eyes, while Kevin smiled slightly, though sadness flickered in his eyes. He knew he had to control himself and not let things get out of hand. Losing her friendship was not an option he wanted to consider.Slowly, Kevin removed his arms from her waist and stepped back, trying to compose himself. He stared at the rice cooker, trying to distract himself from the intense moment. His throat was dry, and he clenched his fists to control his emotions.But then, Sara surprised him by wrapping her soft arms around his waist from behind, placing her cheek on his broad back. A deep sigh escaped her lips as she held him close.Kevin closed his eyes tightly, torn between
