I thought abruptly as I turned into a perplexed young man."Vincent?" I mumbled his name as I tried understanding why he had stopped behind Ethan. Of all people, he had to stop behind the devil himself."Vincent… tell everyone what you know about him, Vincent!" Ethan commanded with his lips curling up in an evil smirk.I wasn't sure why I felt this surge of negativity hovering around the hall but it was obvious that something wasn't going to go as planned."I don't really know what you are doing standing behind Ethan, but trust me, I need you to tell everyone the truth, Vincent" I said softly which was preceded by a pleading voice.He finally lifted his gaze to him which made me tense for a second.

I uttered firmly as I felt broken."That's what you get for Killing my brother, Marcello!" Vincent responded with his glare at me."What did you just say?" I questioned, trying to understand what he meant by me Killing his brother."You bullied my brother in school Marcello and this isn't just about the company but the pain you caused me, the pain you caused my family back then!" He said clearly still staring at Me.The guilt and shame that flooded over me were almost unbearable as I watched him explain what had happened back then.I knew that what I had done was wrong, a
Mistaking Elvis For Marcello.Karissa's POV.It's been three days since I got discharged from the hospital after the surgery and not seeing Marcello since that day has been a thorn in my flesh.Not to speak of the fact that Elvis was the one who had donated his Kidney for me to survive."Is this how you planned on pushing me out of your life? By leaving me all alone with Elvis?" I mumbled softly as I just couldn't help but feel the pain for being broken.I just wished I could see his face, touch his dress, hear his voice or his breath hitting my neck gently.Marcello was all a woman would desire to have but I never saw him that way till date. As I sat on the ground in Elvis's sitting room while thinking about Marcello, with tears streaming down my face, I couldn't help but feel an overwhelming sense of sadness and guilt burning on my inside.

Intrusive Entrance .Karissa's POV.The room was filled with tension as Elvis and I stood facing each other. His eyes were wide with anger as he bellowed, "You fucking slapped me? For what?" I could tell he was absolutely livid after I had smacked him so hard across his face."You caused it, Elvis. Don't act like you are innocent when you are not," I responded, my own voice rising as I spoke. I couldn't believe he was trying to play the victim after everything he had done. "Why would you act like Marcello in the first place? Why would you want to take your best friend's wife away from him?" My fists tightened at my sides as I continued to confront him. "Are you not a fool???" I added spitefully.Elvis was clearly incensed at what I had just called him. He raised his hand to hit me in retaliation for my words, but then, Sarah suddenly burst into the room, causing both of us to freeze in our tracks."The…" she paused, taking in the scene before her.

My Brother in-law?Karissa's POV.I put my hand on Sarah's shoulder, feeling the tension in her body. "He's no longer here Sarah, now speak to me, what is wrong with you?" I asked, my voice soft and gentle. "Why did you barge into the room that way without knocking?" I inquired with a calm voice, staring into her eyes.The Sarah I knew was always tough and bright, but now she looked scared, like something bad must have happened or about to happen. I couldn't help but worry about what could have made her act like this.As I looked around the room for a split second, my mind raced with all kinds of terrible possibilities."Is Marcello dead and she has refused to open up to me? Is something bad happening to the company?" I thought inwardly, my Expression looked gloomy.I focused my attention back on Sarah, meeting her eyes with an innocent and spotless stare.

The fool who had no manners.But there I was, following a stranger who seemed to exude an air of ruthlessness and coldness that made my heart race with unease. As he barked orders at a staff member, I couldn't help but wonder what kind of company I had gotten myself involved with.Walking behind him with my colleague Sarah, I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was amiss. The upcoming meeting with the directors and executives only added to my sense of foreboding. "Why do I have a feeling that this Meeting with the directors and executives today would end in tears, pain and regrets?"
