When Amelia guessed that the lady was of no use, she sighed and got into the back seat of the Bentley.

As the driver started the engine, she waved Helena goodbye, a hint of sadness on her face.

The day she spent in the villa was beyond magical for her. She had the people who really cared for her, pampered her.

After all the bad people she met, these were the nicest ones. Including Kristopher, he was the sweetest.

Thinking about him, made her smile and she quickly shook her head, coming back in reality and asked the driver, "Do you have the phone number of Kristopher?"

What? This girl is calling him by his first name? The driver was astonished and he shook his head.

"Alright, what about his company? Can you take me there?" she pleaded, in a happy tone to which the driver just shook his head, again.

"Oh c'mon. I know that you know and you know that he knows me and I know him so all of us practically know each other.." she said without a

    "What do you mean?" Kristopher had no idea what was she talking about and his heart was beating in his ears, loud and clear."The scent, Kristopher," she said to which he acted to play dumb."What scent? What are you even doing here?" he asked trying to change the subject.Kristopher was a tall guy and Amelia was looking nothing but a small little lamb in front of him. And the way she was looking at him, just like a small kid looks at his or her parents if they want something."You see the thing is... I came here to thank you but when asking for you in the reception I heard people gossiping and talking about the boss.. and I smelled the same scent coming from the man.. it was the same scent I breathe in the club where I got fainted when Richard and Van Dough were going to sell me," she explained every little thing in detail."Okay, so... you are talking about me?" he asked, his both brows raised."Was it you?" she asked to which he gave a lo

    Another second and he took his phone out from the pocket and dialled the number.Amelia and Grace were too busy to notice this and both of them walked upstairs, leaving the drunk man alone.Her mother asked her where she was and she replied, "Mother, I was with a guy. He saved me... you know he's a very nice man." when talking about him, she smiled.Her mother then asked her if she's in love with him and she immediately replied, "Oh god, Mother, no! I don't love him at all.""I'm finding another man.. who had saved me from Richard and men for the very first time.." this brought a wide smile on her face as her eyes dilated and it was a spark in them.Grace looked at her with a naughty face to which Amelia just blushed and covered her face with both of her hands, she was kind of embarrassed."God, mother! Stop it!" she said, her face covered.The cruel father was listening to all of their conversations from outside and clenched his fist

    The face of the man was boiling in anger. After all, he was the one big businessman how can a poor little slut spat on his face and in front of everyone? There's no chance in hell she would be spared.He wiped his face off with a tissue and gave a half lipped smirk saying, "Bring the bitch in. I'm going to show her who the boss is.."He had a reputation and now that she messed with him...Figaro was being seated on the large sofa in the VIP area... Amelia was down on her knees.. as if at his mercy... Richard and Van Dough quietly standing on the left side, bowing their heads down."So, who is she?" Figaro asked, as the stripper handed him a glass of red wine and another one lighted a cigar for him.Figaro was an Italian man.. his accent said it all. And from the faces of Richard and Van Dough, they knew the man well."Sir, she is here to get sold." Richard, with a very smooth and polite tone, said to which Figaro showed him the eyes and said

    "Help me! Someone! I'm afraid of the dark!" Figaro was now yelling for help as Amelia gave him a hard push and he fell on the floor.As it was dark and he could not see, more of it this man was afraid of darkness. So it was a nice and easy chance for her to sneak out."Where are you? Listen to me, please.." he was roaming his hands on the bed as if to find her but she was nowhere to be found.Figaro had no stamina to stand up, he was on his knees, fearing. His voice was shaky and Amelia wanted to laugh, so bad.. but now was not the right time.It was the VIP room and soundproof so literally, no one from outside can hear him pleading or asking for help.And it was a very good opportunity for Amelia to run because the VIP floor was all empty.. either people were in their given rooms or no common person is allowed to go here.As she reached the door, she unlocked it and quickly stepped out and when a ray of light appeared in front of Figa

    Van Dough had arranged a hotel room for Amelia and Richard was just going back to his home town within an hour."Okay, if you did a good job and Figaro was satisfied with you, you will be rewarded and Van Dough will send you back to him.." he said, dragging her out of the bar and to the car.He pushed her on the back seat of the car and got seated on the passenger as the driver started driving, Amelia looked out of the window and her eyes got fixed on Kristopher but he was with a man, talking.Both of them were looking handsome but the man Kristopher was with, she could only see his back as he was facing Kristopher.Was he the same man? But Kristopher doesn't know him. Maybe he was with someone else. Now that she met him, she will see him everywhere.It's not that she had seen him fully and closely but in the dark, she felt him and made his image on her mind.He was handsome just like the men in Hollywood movies.. he was mysterious.. no man

    Kristopher was driving, his brows knitted and he was lost in deep thoughts, eyes on the road but his mind was somewhere else.He tightened his grip at the steering as he increased the speed of his car, raised his eyes up to the back mirror and the road was clear. Not a single car on the front or back of his car.The bright and yellow street lights flashed open as if welcoming the drivers on the road. The wind blew through Kristopher's perfectly spiked hair as he opens the windows of his car. It sent shivers down his spine from the sudden chilly wind.All of a sudden his phone rang as he picked it up and put it on the speaker saying, "Now what do you want?""Why are you so stubborn?" there came a majestic male voice as if complaining."What?" Kristopher asked, eyes still in the road."I told you to drive slow.." the man said over the phone and Kristopher realized that he can hear the noise coming from the engine so he slowed down and ad

    Kristopher and Christian looked at each other in fear. They quickly adjusted themselves and started talking with such affection, as if they were not even arguing in the first place.As soon as the door of the room pushed open, an old lady, face covered with wrinkles but she was fair... if she was so much beauty in her old days then how much gorgeous she might be in her younger days.Her hair was a platinum blonde and eyes like ocean blue pearls. She wore a beige top with the matching skirt, holding a stick in her hand."What are you boys doing?" she asked with a complaining tone.Christian and Kristopher looked at the old lady who carefully walked in, as Christian immediately stood up to hold her, helping her to get seated."Just business..," Kristopher said in a polite yet respected tone."Oh boy, it didn't seem business to me.." the old lady made a pouty face and replied."Nana, why are you up?" Christian asked, his brows knitted.

    "That girl there... in the wedding dress who is pretending to be the heartbroken one.. is actually the one who caused me agony and pain. She slept with the guy who was the marketing manager in my company. Not even one time... but many times. Also, Blair hid that she can't be a mother, ever!" he spat in anger when Blair's eyes were nothing but bulged out."So, tell me, people. Who would marry the girl who betrayed me two fucking times? I would never...""Amelia had sacrificed her love for me... she told me to marry her. Why? Because my happiness is much more important to her. Even though she's carrying my child..." he added confidently making all of the guests chocked while Blair was going insane."Christian Valentino! You can't do this to me!" Blair piqued in anger as she walked to him whilst her arm was being held in the midway."Papa..." she murmured when her father's face was covered with scorn.Blair gulped and added, "Papa, he is lying.

The wedding was also an occasion for socializing.Blair's face was impassive, she was clearly annoyed.The guests were gossiping about the bride and the groom. Everybody was thinking that the groom wasn't coming and he ditched her at the last moment.Stacey was so sure that her grandson has run away but the best friend was here. He might know something."Amelia..." Christian said in a low voice when he saw Amelia was standing close to the water, her bare feet on the sand.In front of her were the magnificent view, the sea, the sky and the wind.The waves roll in, each of them as strong and bold as the last. They come without fear of the beach, embracing their destiny upon the dawn sands. Amelia walks forwards until the water soaks her bare feet, her shoes already dangling in her left hand.

    Weddings are grand affairs. Normally, it only occurs once in a lifetime. It brings about a bondage between a man and a woman.They promised to share the happiness and the sorrows together. It is a very pure bond in the whole world.The wedding hall was all illuminated with different colour bulbs and decorated with pots of flowers, pots and other glittering decorations. A magnificent platform was erected which held two throne-like chairs for the bride and the bridegroom.The platform and the stage was the banquet hall of a five-star hotel with its thick red carpets and floral decorations. The cool fragrance was so strong that everyone left sleepy. There was a place by the side for music troops with their enormous music instruments. They played loud and soft music.The marriage party was to start at six in the evening and the wedding reception was scheduled at eight in the night.A big white canopy with tons of white lilies and purple orchids were pl

    "Listen to me, Bryce..." Blair whispered in a very low voice when she was in the suite of the Plaza Hotel, surrounded by the makeup artists."Excuse me, people..." she said to the makeup artists and hairstylists who went away leaving the two of the friends."What is it?" Bryce asked sipping the glass of her wine as she was comfortably leaning back on the seat, wearing a bathrobe.Blair's hair was half tied up while the rest let loose on her both sides of the shoulders."By the way, you are going to make a very pretty bride," the best friend complimented when Blair rolled her eyes as she hushed her up."Shut up and listen to me..." Blair said when she continued, "I can't conceive...""What do you want to conceive anyway?" Bryce asked with a narrowed brow and Blair, again, rolled her eyes."Are you drunk, already?" she asked with an irritated face and Bryce nodded saying, "Because it's my best friend's fucking wedding.""Also, sh

    The wedding day has arrived and Christian's anxiety was increasing with every minute passing by.He was awake but not leaving the bed, scared to step out and face the world.Amelia, who woke up before him and had a shower and prepared the breakfast, walked in the room and spoke, "Come on, have something. The breakfast is ready."He tossed to the other side saying, "Not hungry..." and she knew why he wasn't eating."Christian..." she stepped in the bed and put her small hand on his face to cup it as she spoke, "Christian... you are a strong guy. Don't be a coward.""I am a coward, Amelia. I can't face the world. I can't face Blair and all of my family members and the press and... and you... How can I face you after the wedding? How can I part the time from my schedule to handle two women at a time, if that's what you're thinking," he blurted out without thinking and sits to lean back on the bed as he continued, "You the most important person i

    "No need to wear the bow with it," Kristopher said to his best friend who was checking the bow if it matched with his tuxedo."I was thinking the same," he replied as he gave the bow back to the sales guy.Christian and Kristopher were in the Armani store, selecting the wedding suit for the groom.His face was impassive, he had no excitement, no happiness or any other emotion in his face.Tomorrow is his wedding and he is not happy at all. What was he waiting for? The wedding to happen or the wedding to get stopped?"Christian, your grandma wants to meet you..." Kristopher informed him when he was lost in deep thoughts.When the guilt comes it takes him down the old familiar path. He wants to refuse to walk it, pretend that he's the person he demands that he would be. He wants to see himself in sepia tones, not perfect colour. He wants to scrub his head, but if he did he'd never learn from what happened. And it's true what they say, “T

    Christian and Amelia were bare skin, laying close to each other, her head rested on his chest as she heard the slow heartbeats of him.His heart beats around her was always leisure as if he was calm and relaxed with her.The ring of his phone interrupted their peace and as he saw the name, he quickly stood up from the bed, wearing his clothes, as he attended the call."Yes, Blair?" he spoke when he turned the speaker on, wearing the pants."Baby, where are you?" she asked in a sweet voice when Amelia quickly made an awkward face by squinting her eyes as she raised one side of the mouth, babbling with no voice and Christian indicated her to stay quiet.After talking on the phone when Amelia was laying on the bed, she copied Blair's voice by saying, "Babbyyyy... where are you, baby? Christian... come to me, please.""My hair will go white if you don't come in a minute..." she said with the change of voice when he chuckled and said, "did

    When Christian didn't say a word, she understood as she withdrew her hand from his grip and the machines which were attached to her started beeping continuously.Blair's breath was high by now and she was struggling for air. Gasping for oxygen when Christian quickly pressed the help button next to her bed and made her wear the oxygen mask.Blair wasn't wearing the oxygen mask when the doctors came in they rushed towards her as they said, "Wear this mask.""No... I... won't. Christian... I want... answers," she said gasping for air struggling not to wear the oxygen mask.The doctors along with Christian was trying to wear her the oxygen mask."Blair, I will give you the answer. First, wear this mask," he pleaded when she refused to wear the oxygen mask.He gave up and quickly said, "Okay, Blair.
