"And what about Rhea and Ryan?" He asked and it definitely stopped her in her tracks. She immediately turned around to meet his eyes.
"What about them?" She asked with a frown.
Please leave me a review and give my book 'His Revenge' a chance too! Love you all!
"Mumma, it was so much fun! I really enjoyed today!" Rhea said while clapping her hands, from the backseat "Me too, mumma! I missed grandpa, grandma and uncle Aiden a lot." Ryan also added in excitement. Ryan and Rhea, both have demanded to go to Athaliah's home from morning. Athaliah didn't talk much with Aaron after the argument that they had two days ago. So, she took them without telling him anything about the visit. Though all the other family members know. It was too much fun taking her children to her home. She had never seen Ryan so excited and every expression of Rhea was new for her. She captured them all as much as she could. When she had told her brother and parents that she is coming with the kids, her family had ordered some gifts and toys for the kids and also some junkie food which obviously Ryan and Rhea enjoyed eating but Athaliah did have an eye on them to ensure they didn’t overeat anything.&nbs
FLASHBACK "Nurse… I… I… I am Aaron Knight… my… my… wife… she…" He couldn't even complete his sentence in nervousness and anticipation. "Please follow me." The nurse said and started to walk toward a room and Aaron followed after him immediately. He was working on the deal that he just bagged from Athaliah's father one month ago, when he got a call from one of her employees saying she fell down the stairs and hurt herself. He immediately ran out of his office leaving everything behind. Nothing is more important than her. It's been one month since they had got married contractually and he had seen remarkable changes in his family. Nowadays he always finds smiles on his mother, brother, sister and even on his all time serious father's face. They spend a lot of time together now which were rare before his marriage with Athaliah. He also noticed some changes in her behaviour towa
Ryan and Rhea were crying continuously and Aaron's family couldn't calm them down. "Please, stop crying you both. If you don't stop crying now, you will fall sick and if you fall sick, who will take care of your mumma?" Ariana tried to explain the kids but they were not in the state to hear anyone except their mother. "I want my mumma!" Ryan shouted at them. "Me too!" Rhea backed her brother up. That's when Aaron entered the room with Athaliah. Everyone was present in the room, including Luke and Olivia. Athaliah frowned at her. She was going to deny Aaron from picking her in his arms but stopped after seeing Olivia. Aaron raised his eyebrows at her amusingly but nevertheless he slid his one arm under her knees and picked her up again. "There they are.. oh god.. Athaliah!" Diana exclaimed worriedly and rushed to clean one of the couches for her to lie down.
"So you are doubting Robin for hurting her because Ariana beat his ass for her?" Luke said. "Well, she actually didn't beat his ass but kicked where the sun doesn't shine." Aaron said. "But, yes. I am doubting him." "It doesn't make sense. As per Athaliah, Robin had his on her, so, he trying to kill her just doesn't make sense." Luke said with a frown. Aaron was deep in thought. The possibility of someone trying to hurt Athaliah stuck in his mind when he recalled someone tried to kill her before too. It's possible that the same person who tried to kill her that day is trying to do the same as they got to know she didn't die that day. It could be anyone. It's not like he didn't doubt Robin. He did a total background check on him after some months from that day. But it was fruitless, he didn't find anything suspicious or Robin cleared all the traces before he could get a hold of the
"Is it paining here?" He asked while massaging her feet. Was it the hot water bag or something else, she didn’t know? But her whole body was on fire. Her body burnt in a desirous flame which anyone could mistake for fever. She clutched his wrist to stop him. "You have done enough favour on me today by bearing my tantrums. I don't want you to do something from which you are tired of." She murmured. Aaron recalled he had told her a while ago that he was tired of her tantrums. But he really didn’t mean it that way. He was tired of how she restricted him from coming near her or touching her as if he wasn't her husband or the father of their children. "I can never be tired of helping someone in need. Now stop intruding me and let me do my job." He said while massaging her feet with utmost care. "Job? This is a job for you?" She asked in irritation. "Then please s
FLASHBACK "Athaliah! Athaliah, wait! Stop!" Aaron shouted at her to stop but she didn't stop. She kept running without turning back while wiping her tears continuously. "Athaliah! Please, stop!" Aaron shouted and increased his speed. Athaliah reached their bedroom and closed the door immediately after she got inside. She touched the door with her back and slipped down. She couldn't hold her tears back anymore. She didn't stop them from flowing anymore. She started to cry loudly while hugging her knees close to her heart. Her heart was aching as if someone suddenly put a lot of burdens on her poor heart. It was aching so badly that she felt like she couldn't breathe anymore. Her cries were echoing in the room, making the environment more gloomy. Thank god no one was home at this moment as they were still in the party from here she ran away.&
"You-..." He cleared his throat. "You, go to... sleep now." He said while looking away from her. She also wasn't looking at him. "I will be back after changing. I… I will sleep on the couch, call me if you need… anything.." He said, still avoiding her eyes and walked toward the walk-in closet. He noticed her confusing stance and blushy cheeks. He badly wanted to kiss her again. But a part of him knew, if he did, it might not stop there. Tonight was different. The kiss was different, different then their other kisses after she returned and they both knew it. It was passionate. They both were lost in the past when they became one for the first time and that intensified the desire inside them in ten folds. "Good night."He said, hurrying inside. Athaliah sighed in disbelief as soon as he entered the closet. Her heart was beating erratically. She put her hand over her heart. "Oh, heart
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
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.
