They left the room after closing the door behind them. Aiden said his goodbye with a lot of strict orders before leaving. Athaliah couldn't help but chuckle at him. No matter how much a silly brother she has, she loved him a lot.
Now that they left, there were so many questions in her mind and no answers. There are more into the story of Robin's. She still couldn't understand what he wanted. Her? Or her money? Was he alone or someone else was involved.
Wait! Did Ariana say Robin was there in the hospital after her delivery? What was he doing there? There was so much confusion which led her more and more into the maze.
Right now, knowing what happened that day after her delivery tmin the hospital was her only concern. She had to focus on it and then the rest would connect automatically. She needs the real CCTV footage.
But how? She wasn't able to handle all of them in this state al
Please leave me a review and give my book 'His Revenge' a chance too! Love you all!
"Papa!" Rhea exclaimed and cut Aaron off. "Mumma!" Ryan exclaimed too and they both came to them with Adrian behind them. "Look what I got for you, mumma." Ryan said and forwarded a red rose to her. "Where did you get that from?" Athaliah asked with a frown while accepting the rose and picking him up in her arms and Aaron picked Rhea up. "I got it from the vase. It's fresh. Uncle Adi said so." Ryan said innocently. Athaliah smiled at him and gave him a kiss on his cheeks. Then she turned toward Aaron and gave Rhea a kiss. "Where's Papa's kiss?" Rhea asked innocently, making Adrian cough.
Athaliah and Aaron both looked at him in shock and soon the shock turned into frown. Athaliah frowned at him in confusion whereas Aaron was planning his murder with his glare. “What do you mean?” Aaron glared at him and took a predatory step toward him but Athaliah stopped him immediately by hooking her arms around his bicep. Hayden raised his hands in a surrendering manner and chuckled at him. “Oh, cool, man! I was just joking. Why so serious?” Hayden laughed it off and forwarded his hand toward Aaron for a handshake. Aaron kept glaring at him. Athaliah gulped nervously after feeling the tension between the two men. But after a few seconds, Aaron forwarded his hand too and accepted Hayden’s handshake with an arrogant smirk plastered on his face. "I like your sense of humour." Aaron commented and Hayden smirked back at him in response. "But don't forget to refrain yourself from cr
"What took you so long?" Athaliah asked, as soon as she saw Aaron coming toward her. She was waiting for him while leaning on the door of his car. She has already called Sean and asked him to come or send someone to get her car from here. "Are you okay?" Aaron questioned back without answering her. "Since when the answer of the questions has been another question?" Athaliah raised her eyebrows at him. "I don't know and I don't care." Aaron rolled his eyes at her. "You just tell me how are you feeling now?" Aaron asked again. Athaliah sighed at him. "I am fine." She said in a dismissive manner. "You looked like you were at the verge of having a panic attack. Why did that happen?" He asked worriedly with a frown. Athaliah hesitated a little before answering but answered nevertheless when she realised Aa
"Do you remember once when I told you about a guy who broke my heart but I used to love him so much?" Ariana asked. Yes, Athaliah remembers. Athaliah knew about almost every affairs of her. She also used to tell Athaliah about everything about those boys. But she didn't say anything about this one particular guy who broke her heart. "Do you remember what you said to me when I said no matter how much I love him, I won't be the one to say sorry?" Ariana continued herself when she realised Athaliah is not going to reply. "You said, 'If you wanna love someone, then make sure you never forget to say SORRY when necessary'." Ariana said. Athaliah kept looking at her without interrupting her. Yes, she remembers everything she had advised her when they were in good terms of relationship. But she still didn't get where she was going with this. "So, here I am, wanting to love you and ready to say
"Sean is getting them with Luke. This way." He said and led Aaron to the couch without commenting further into that matter. In a moment Luke and Sean came inside and played the tape on the Plasma TV which Aaron had in his office. "It’s a one-hour video." Sean said. "It's from the time after your delivery to your shifting to the new room." He said. Athaliah swallowed. She could feel her arms and feet getting cold. This tape meant something to her. It can change everything or change nothing at all. She suddenly felt uneasy and unsettling inside her. "You are ready?" Aaron asked her in concern. She plainly nodded and her eyes glued to the TV Screen. Aaron gestured to Luke to play the tape. The first few minutes looked normal. The doctors and nurses were constantly moving in and out of her room which looked very normal. She was still inside the operation room while everyone waited outside the room anxiously.
Aaron stared blankly at Athaliah’s number on his phone. He was still deciding if he should make this call or not? It had been hours since she left like that.. after watching the tapes.. after their kiss. The way it all happened, he hadn’t thought things would turn so complicated. The way she left without uttering any word or even looking at him, forced him to imagine a lot of negative things. All he wanted was to soothe her pain, ease her cries and relieve her from stress and the best way to do that during that weak moment was kiss her? NO!! He could have done anything but that. Their relationship was already on the verge of breaking down in a few weeks. Even though he doesn't want it, he was not sure about Athaliah. Though it doesn't mean that he won't fight for himself if Athaliah doesn't agree to continue the marriage with him. He will give up his everything to convince her he surely won't force her into anything like he thought before.
"God, I am tired." Aaron sighed in tiredness. Yesterday was a hectic day for Aaron. Watching those tapes with Athaliah, kissing her to take away her pain, then repenting on his actions and finally taking over the responsibility of finding the links to that incident which coincidentally happened in Hayden's hospital years ago.. everything had drained him. He was so busy sorting the first steps of everything that he had stayed in his office all night yesterday. He didn't come back home yesterday. Nor did he see or talk with Athaliah over the phone. He will be lying if he says that he hasn't missed her. He didn't forget to call his mother, sister or brother to talk with his lovely kids. He didn't want to disturb Athaliah by calling her but whenever his phone rang, he wished it to be her call every time. But she didn't call him even for once. Sighing at himself, he stopped the car in front of the gates of h
The next day "Aaron? What brings you to the Lockhart mansion?" Mrs Lockhart, Olivia's mother asked after telling Aaron to sit down. Mrs Lockhart was in the drawing room, looking at some magazine when the servant informed her that Aaron Knight was here. "Good morning, Mrs Lockhart. I have some work, Olivia. Is she home?" He asked. "Yes, wait I will ask someone to inform her about your arrival. She will be really happy." She said and ordered one of her servants to inform Olivia. "How's your mom?" Mrs Lockhart tried to start a conversation. "She is doing fine. Please keep visiting her." Aaron replied really politely. "Do tell her that I miss her and that I will come to meet her soon." She said with a smile. "Sure." He replied. "How's your wife and kids doing?" She
4 YEARS LATERAthaliah was in the Kitchen busy making the evening snacks for the kids. It was a nice evening. Her whole family have come to visit her. Including Aiden and Elena and their children. When all the kids met together, they started shouting at once that they wanted food cooked by her only. Everyone got their different demands. They have a leader though.Ryan, Rhea, Luke and Ariana's three years old daughter Natasha and two years old son Max. Aiden and Elena's three years old twin baby girl Sarah and Serena and one year old baby boy Kayden. Even Max and Kayden started to clap their hands to support their older siblings.And Athaliah has a big baby too. Adrian! The leader of the group. Who is not leaving any effort to spoil the kids."Need any help there, angel?" Adrian asked, entering the kitchen while biting on an apple."Yeah, I do. Bring me a partner as your w
"Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday dear, Ryan and Rhea! Happy birthday to you!" Everyone sang the birthday song to the birthday boy and girl.They both were in cloud nine. They had been pampered like princes and princesses since morning. They were so happy. They happily cut the cake with the help of their parents.They were really excited about blowing the candles off and eating the cake. Everyone laughed at their excitement.Rhea was in her uncle Aiden's arm eating the chocolates that he bought for her.. Ryan was busy with his uncle Adi who gave him a brand new video game which he loved the most.Everyone was happy. The situation had calmed down a little and it was a relief for everyone. Athaliah had kept her words of ending everything before Ryan and Rhea's birthday and she was quite proud of it.But there is a problem. Aaron is no
"What's the hurry in marrying my wife, Hayden?"They heard Aaron. Athaliah and Robin looked at the source of his voice and found him standing at the entrance of the hill point with his hands inside his pockets. He stood there with a snug look on his face and smirked at Hayden.There wasn't anyone behind him. Luke and Sean were going to come through the jungle to tackle those two guards. They have already informed the police about this on their way here but requested them to keep their eyes on the scene from far, intervene only when it's necessary."Aaron? What are you doing here?" He asked in shock."What do you mean by what I am doing here? Here, you, my friend is planning to marry my wife and didn't even invite me?! How fair is that? So I invited myself on your behalf." He said with a wicked smirk, while walking toward Athaliah."Hey, wifey? I see you really weren't mar
"What have you done, Hayden? You threw your own phone?" She exclaimed. "Yes, I did. Because I don't want anyone to disturb us. So you are not allowed to dial anyone." He said. Athaliah started pushing the car door to open and jump out of the car but Hayden locked it instantly. "Don't even think of jumping? You will hurt yourself! And think about Ryan and Rhea, they are too young to lose their mother." He said with a smirk. That wicked smile on Hayden's face only made Athaliah slap him tight. But he held her hand instantly and increased the car speed as the destination he had planned to take her wasn't far now. Athaliah looked outside the car too see, he wasn't lying when he said she knew the place. She actually knew exactly where she was taking her. And she can't wait to reach there. *** "He is taking here." Sean
"What nonsense is this! Why would we need a lawyer?" Robin asked with a frown, his resolve of staying strong, no, pretending to be strong is breaking slowly. "Wait a minute. You will know right away." Aaron said while gritting his teeth with a harsh look on his face. "Sean?" Athaliah called for her secretary aka personal detective to begin with the show. "Let them know about what's going on, please." Athaliah said with a smirk while making a fist out of her hands so hard that it almost cut off her blood circulation. Suddenly Sean entered the room with Luke. Luke was smirking at the duo devilishly. He is going to enjoy the show very much. Sean came and connected his laptop with the TV where Athaliah was watching the new sometimes back. After a few seconds, there were some pictures that were shown on the television. "Wh… what the heck is this?" Olivia exclaimed while shivering in te
"What? That doesn't make sense!" Ariana said with a frown. "Why do we have to make mistakes?" Ariana asked. Athaliah was going to explain but Aaron answered behalf of him. "We have to make such a mistake so that it looks like we made this mistake while planning on how to trap him. So in order to double cross us he will have to definitely think of something real quick but as we already got our every step measured up, they will get tangled in the maze created by themselves." Aaron explained. "Exactly!" Athaliah said. "But how do we make intentional mistakes? And what should it be?" Aiden asked. "Leave that on me. I will let you all know after I am done. Till then let's plan our next steps toward Robin and Athaliah." Athaliah said. Aaron kept looking at her with a thoughtful look before removing his eyes off her.
"I told you hundred times not to call me on my number. Then why?" Hayden snapped at the opposite person in frustration. "You are going to drown me!" He snapped again and waited for the person to talk and his face turned red in anger. "Oh, I see! You already messed it up!" He shouted at that person. That person again said something which made him calm down a little. He took deep breaths to calm his rage down. "Okay! Okay! Give me some time to figure it out and don't call me again… and for god's sake don't mess it up more! I will see what I can do!" Saying that he kept the call with a loud sigh out of frustration and turned back only to be shocked to see Athaliah standing behind him with a small smile. "Uhh!! Athaliah? You.. I…" He started to stutter. He lacks words, not knowing what to say. "Busy?" Athaliah asked with an apologetic smile. "I am sorry I came in with
"Deal!" She said and immediately put her hand over his. Robin immediately caught her hand and smirked at her wickedly. Elena's heart dropped on her stomach seeing that and she looked at him with a horror sticked face, she thought he was pretending till now. But he left her hand after giving her knuckle a small peck. "You are sweet! So you deserve this." He said with a slurry smile which immediately relaxed her tensed nerves. "Okay, so where I was? Oh yeah. You wanted to know why I wanted to kill her." He said. "Yes, tell me and I will let you sleep." Elena said again and he happily nodded at her. "I wanted her property. I wanted her business. I wanted her money and that's why I wanted to kill her. That's why I used to disturb her in many ways. That's why I sent fake and morphed pictures of me and her to Aaron and created misunderstandings between them." He said and started to gigg
"Robin! You are an angel!" He said in a slurry tone and got up from his seat. He acted like his legs wobbled and he fell on Robin. Robin was quick to catch him. He made him sit back on his previous seat. "Whoa, dude! You are wasted. What happened?" Robin asked with a smirk, he always enjoys others' sufferings. "You are an angel! How is it possible that whenever I am in the worst stage of my life and you are always around? You must be an angel." Aiden said in a slurry tone but Sean and Elena who were hearing him couldn't help but snort because they easily picked up the sarcasm in Aiden's tone. Robin smirked at himself while taking the full credits. From Aiden's behaviour it doesn't look like he knows anything about him yet. Either Athaliah doesn't know about him yet or she didn't say anything about him to her brother yet. That means he still got time to wrap everything up and leave this place forever.
