"Don't worry he is going to be alright", said him. I looked away else he would see my deep hurt."Get some sleep", he said withdrawing his fingers from my face.I gently laid down on the bed thankful that I had avoided a confrontation tonight. He was giving me some space but that didn't provide him any form of sympathy for me. I'm going to make him accountable for his past mistakes. He should expect no mercy from me.Morning I woke up early but Matt had already left the bed. I got freshened up and got ready for office. I went to Mrs Morgan caretaker of both the house and the people."Had Matt already left?", I asked her."No he is working from home", she said dismissively."Ok. I will make coffee for him", I said."He only likes coffee made by me or himself", she said as a matter of pride.I wanted to roll my eyes at her silly attitude. But I was determined to be nice to her. I went to see Matt. He is at home and is working which means he had the laptop with all the details of his next
"Meredith I'm a simple man wanting simple things in life. I only ask for three months of regular marriage. I don't want to be a sexually frustrated man unable to make love to his wife. I don't want you to break up with your boyfriend for a marriage which is for namesake ", he said." That is not all. I'm not ready to have sex with you Matt", I said."Ever?", he asked me calmly but I saw a storm brewing in his eyes."For some time, I wanted to get to know you. These five years both of us have changed. It is like living with a new person. I can't just do something deeply private with a guy I barely knew", I said."You know me, Meredith. I'm Matt who played checkers with you", he said."Please don't I don't want to remember that guy. You asked me to forget that time. I did as you asked please don't make me remember it", I said."If you think so. Let us get to know each other first. I don't want to hurt you or force you to do things against your wish. I will always respect your desires Mer
"You didn't sign a prenup", he said."So?", I asked him."After the three months of the contract is over you will return but with half of his fortune", he smiled twistedly while saying this."That is not possible he must have made some clause similar to it", I protested."Did you read the contract you little fool?", he asked me."Yes", I said hesitantly."That is what I'm saying you can't see it because it is not there", he said."I won't file a case demanding money Father. I don't want it", I said to him."You will. I'm your father and you will listen to me, Meredith. You are always crying about losing Parker. Don't you want to be his wife?", he asked me."Yes but not like this", I said."This is the only way Meredith and you better listen to me. I don't want you to ruin my plans", he said menacingly.I decided to shut up. I wasn't afraid of my father. I was only worried that arguing with him would make him irritated and his recovery would be affected. I knew whatever my father was p
I still wasn't getting any idea of what was happening around here. Why did Parker want me to be here? I knew this place didn't look or sound safe at all. I probably should get out. But I don't know how."Here this a simple chip you just have to insert this baby into the laptop. The rest we can do. Make sure the Internet is on while you are doing this. This can be seen so don't leave it out there. Any questions?", he asked me."I haven't done this before. I'm not sure I will be able to do this easily", I said.The boy started laughing like a maniac. I watched Parker shocked. He looked a little uneasy too."Thanks, Cam. I will teach you how", he said and took the chip. "Let us go Mer", he said taking me out for f there. I saw the other guy wave to him but he didn't answer it."Parker, what is the meaning of this? Who are those people?", I asked him uncontrollably. "Calm down Mer. I will take you home", he said leading me to his car.I got inside but still, he didn't give me any answer.
I still couldn't sleep even when it was very late. He admitted that he hated me but it was a long time ago. Why was it so difficult for him to be honest about it? How can he care for me so much after being so nasty? I didn't know the answers to every question that played on my mind. Parker had given me the chip I needed to insert it into Jamie's laptop. He said he would sometimes quote below Matt for fun. But I wasn't entirely sure about the next time. He may decide to quote a little high. One could never tell. I have only one thing to do that is to insert the chip and pray for the best.The morning came and I went to my office Lisa was there waiting for me. She briefed me on the Matters but my mind wasn't on it."What is it?", she asked me."Nothing", I answered to her."It doesn't look like nothing. I heard your Matt left", she said eying me."He is not mine Lisa", I said."He is. Look at what came to the office today", she said giving me a small box covered in gift paper."What is
Matt called me occasionally. He had been pretty busy Parker informed me that soon they would announce who had won the bid and he was very confident this time. He had managed to extract all the necessary information. He calls me begging me to meet him. He wanted to thank me but I said no. I was feeling a lot guilty if I was being True to myself. I went out with Lisa once or twice but I visited every day in hospital. They said they wanted to check him for his blood pressure. My father still manages to scare all of the staff there. He always orders me to be at the office instead of wasting my time elsewhere.The work was going the same as before. Even though my father is in hospital nothing has changed here. The senior board director is deciding everything. I was silent at the same time helpless. I didn't have much money to invest in the business if I had then I would have more value in my own company.After I was done I returned home with my driver who was also my bodyguard. I have come
I got discharged on the same day on my demand. Neither my doctor nor Matt agreed with my decision. But I didn't want to waste my time in the hospital because my father was already in the hospital. Being in the hospital is going to send some bad signals to people who have invested in our company. Matt had been with me all the time. I was very taken aback by his kindness towards me. He gently held me while I tried to walk. I was completely disgusted by my weakness. He pressed for me to take more rest in here but I wasn't going to allow my enemy to tell me how I'm going to live."You don't have to do that", I said when I saw him pick up my shoe for me."Relax I'm doing you no favour. I want you to get better so that we can fight some more", he said with a chuckle."We should take easy on the fights. I didn't want to end up in the hospital again", I said."You didn't reach the hospital because of me", he said.Does he even believe his own words? I was in trouble from the very first day I
I hated remembering my past or anything to do with that. Lisa knew my tough times but she didn't have any idea of how much it broke me. I should tell her. I had a deep feeling that she needed to know what transpired between me and Matt. My father had forbade me from talking about Matt to anyone. Lisa too knew only a little about my past. When I left I only hinted at Lisa of where I was going but I hadn't told her why. She knew certain things like how I met Matt and then I pursued him. She knows that I got married to him. My heart was broken after which I divorced him. But it is still so far from the painful truth. I should tell her. I was about to but she interrupted me."I hate to see you in pain and tears Mer. I'm sorry for saying that. But I want you to be happy and I think being with Matt will help you", she said."No. It is going to be much worse for me if I ever had to be with Matt. It is already so much painful", I said to her."I know only a little but if you ever care to shar
"What did my father ask?", I started my interrogation straight away."He wanted money obviously and I wasn't going to give him", he said gritting his teeth."So the argument happened", I asked."Yes. Even if I gave him money I knew that he wouldn't leave us alone. He would come after us. He was greedy for money and there was so stopping it", he said."You didn't have to worry. I would have never allowed him to drain your money", I said."I wasn't worried about money. I was afraid he would destroy my family", he said."You wanted to kill him?", I asked him."Yes I did. But I knew doing that would permanently make you hate me. So I dropped that thought", he said."Tell me something that you missed that day?", I asked him."Wait there is something", he said."What?", I asked him."I saw Lisa on my way out", he said."What?", I asked shocked."Yes", he said."When was it?", I asked him."I guess she watched us fighting. She was sitting on a chair not that far away", she said."Why you did
When I finally was able to pull myself together I stood up. It wasn't an easy thing for a woman to do. Leaving a marriage is one of the toughest thing for a woman to do. Even if he was abusive it takes a lot of strength for us to actually get out of the relationship. Some will return and finally after a multitude of forgiveness and resentment we will be finally be ready to shed that part of our life and then slowly we will move on. I was finally able to break this circle of disappointment and crushed hopes.When I opened the door I couldn't see him. I was glad that he had given upon trying to stop me. I didn't want to fight with him on my way out. I want to leave with a good memory. I should have known that our relationship will be doomed. I tried to save it. I have to admit I did a pretty good job of helping him. Only if he was a little more interested in living with me like I was. But I have already forgiven him and myself for desperation. That is what we had not love but the need
"I thought we would", I said to him. I was still breathless from our coupling. He watched me with a hidden smile. I knew he would happily wait for me even if it is a century. I would do the same for him too. I was too tired maybe it was the anticipation of the date that drained me. He stood up and went outside while I was admiring the view. It killed me to watch the beautiful skin marred by a few scars thanks to the run ins he had with the bounty hunters. I was thankful too for his fast thinking and reflexes without which he wouldn't have survived. I pursed my lips at my own brain. Why can't I stop worrying and be happy for a second. We have come far and further only to be derailed by our own minds.I opened my arms to him. He had gone and fixed the fire braving the wind and cold so I could remain warm. It was more than enough to make me horny. His thoughtful gestures are the one that make me want to jump his bones and this time wasn't any different.He put his lips on me. Our kisses
I'm a great planner but no amount of planning had prepared me for this date night. So I'm still wearing my. Comfort clothes and waiting for my husband. He had secretly escaped. I have no idea where he was. He asked to get ready and wait for him. That is what I was doing. It wasn't an easy part. But now I was very much relaxed. He is around somewhere."Sorry for making you wait", he said handing me these wild flowers that I had planted in the garden a long time ago. A lady comes here sometimes to water them. But I have asked her not to come anymore because I planned to make my husband stay here undetected for a long time."Lucky to find those because most of them are withered", he said."I have give a paid vacation for the lady who used to water them", I said with a sigh."That is a wise decision", he said to me."She has no one. Her fiance left her a week before the wedding. She certainly deserves it", I said to him.."How do you know so many things about her?", he asked curiously."T
"I think we need a break", said Matt rising from the chair."We just only started", I said or did protesting."No we have been going at it for a week", said Matt."Yet we don't have any clue", I said."That is exactly why we should take a break", he said."You hate talking", I told him."I don't hate talking but you want to talk about the murder nothing else", he said."What else you want me to talk about?", I asked him."US. Our daughter. Our future", he said."We will have no future if you don't get cleared out in the court", I said to him."I know but there is still a lot of issues other than that. We need to sort this out. If I get caught and thrown back there I may never get to earn your forgiveness", he said."You have done nothing to ask forgiveness", I said."That is a big lie. I know we have many problems and the way I treated you. Plus the things I have hidden from you have taken a toll on us. I know you haven't acknowledged that I'm really here. Somewhere deep down you stil
"I'm sorry there is nothing to eat in here except biscuits", I said to him."I'm very content to live in here. I don't need anything the freedom itself is going to help me thrive", he said.He looked around. He saw a couple of photographs with me and my grandmother. I was this chubby baby but my grandmother was holding me. I was four or five.I do miss her. She was a mother figure and a great help for me. She is even helping me now by giving me a place to hide on the run."You are in this trouble because of me. By now I'm sure that Salvatore might have spilled his guts about your involvement", he said to me."I know. But I'm happy that I wasn't trapped with him",I said shuddering.."He had raped countless woman and had even assaulted a woman who dared to fight him back", he said."I'm glad I didn't end up as one myself", I said to him."He wouldn't be alive if he had touched you", he said under his breath. I was sure that he didn't want to say it out alloud."What did you do here?", h
"But you are with me now", I told him suppressing a smile."Yes. I was supposed to run alone and leave you at home. But now we are here together because of you", he said to me."Are you sad that you are here with me?", I asked him."I'm not sad. How can I be sad? The only thing I wanted in those lonely days was you. Now you are with me. I don't care about the consequences. But I know that there will be hell to pay for this", he said closing his eyes."Where are you going?", he asked me."I have thought to take you to one of my holiday spots", I murmured distracted. Having a close call with death had certainly rehashed my sense."Are you alright?", he asked me tenderlyI tightened my lips. Was I alright? I didn't know. The marks of his fingerprints might fade over time. But the trauma of being held at gunpoint will stay with me for the rest of my life."I'm good", I said carelessly. His fingers gently touched my forearms. My sleeve was torn and he could easily see the bruises on me. I
I wanted to help my husband however I ended up doing the exact opposite. But I have trust in one thing that is Salvatore won't say anything that goes against his interest. He wants to escape here outing one's plan means his ability to get out of here as well. So I was sure that he won't tell anyone. But that doesn't stop him from doing something that is going to damage our plans. I have to be really cautious. I had already given up the uniform that was meant for Matt. I was sure that he is going to escape from here using this. But what about Matt? How can he go when the only door before us is closed. I instantly regretted my decision of taking this enormous responsibility. If only I didn't choose to come here. I was instantly recognised by Salvatore. That is the sole reason for our plan to doom.I watched Salvatore closely he was looking tense. His eyes wary even though he was sharing a joke with another mean looking guy. I knew his secret. He was going to get out and he didn't want t
This was a game. A very dangerous one. But I have no choice other than to play this. I'm afraid that this is going to be our last chance to be together. We have to fight every odds to survive. This might even endanger our lives. But we have to somehow battle everything and everyone who is going to stand between us and freedom. I don't dare explain this to Matt. I knew he won't understand my words. He will probably end up being too annoyed to try this out. He might choose to stay and wait. He wouldn't do anything that is going to put me in danger."We have to take him with us as well", I said to him."Don't. You don't know what he had done. He will hurt you pretty bad if he ever got a chance", he said to me."We have to help him or he is going to tell on us", I reminded him."I don't think it is that bad compared to the possibility of taking him with us", he said to me."Why is he so dangerous? How could he hurt me while you are with me?", I asked him."This question itself proves how
