Chapter 63Xavier was watching TV with Caroline in their lounge when he heard a knock before Enzo came inside. "Boss, Sasha is here". He informed and only then Caroline saw another guard behind him. She turned to Xavier with a questioning look. "Oh right. I forgot. Bring him in". Xavier sat up straight. "Caroline he is Sasha. A new addition to your guards. He was stationed in the club, but I thought it's better if he joined the security. Sasha. Your priority is to work with boys. Enzo, Ray, Rafe and Declan. Join them to protect Caroline and my twins. Any harm to them will never be forgiven. I trust you will not let me down but believe me, if I ever caught you disobeying me that led to any harm to my family, I will be the one to slice you. Got it"? Xavier said in a cold tone. Even Enzo gulped hard. "Roger Boss. I swear I will protect your family by giving my life". He raised his hand as the oath made Xavier nod. "Enzo, ask Ray to give him a tour. Show him the cars Caroline will u
Chapter 64Chelsea was watching her favorite series on Netflix when her phone rang. She saw the name and sat up straight. "Rafe?""Hi. Yes. I. Did I disturb you?" She heard his hesitant voice. "No, not at all. I was just surfing Netflix. Tell me." She was actually curious as it was the first time he called her. "It's just. Actually I am free. I thought if we could go out, if you have time". He spoke on the phone. "Yes I am free. But what's the occasion? No I don't have any objection but just asking to dress up". She asked, trying to sound casual but internally she was screaming in glee. "Nothing special. A pair of jeans and a shirt would do. Keep a jacket with you. How about I pick you up in like twenty minutes?" He asked her. "Perfect. I will wait." She ended the call and squealed at her seat like a teenager on her first date. A pair of blue denim, red shirt and blue jacket with boots. She tied her hair in a ponytail and completed her look with a bright red lipstick. She wink
Chapter 65."Hi gorgeous". Josh knocked at the door and entered her office. "Oh ho .. look who is here. Finally you remembered me huh? You traitor". Caroline stood up from her seat to greet Josh. He hug her gently, laughing out loud at her accusations. "Like you don't know what kept me busy". He replied playfully. "Come sit. Would you like to have anything?" She asked Josh who shook his head. "Not yet. Actually, I have something important to discuss". Caroline turned serious at his serious tone. "What is it Josh?" "I want the ownership of my beach house penthouse that I shared with Patrick. You remember I bought it with him at 60-40. He wants to leave the place so I had arranged an agreement for it. I am buying it out and will give him forty percent of the total cost. I want your signatures to fix the legal documents as you are my legal advisor and then it will be settled". Josh explained the situation while Caroline read the papers. "Fair enough. I will prepare these and send
Chapter 66It took Josh some time to get normal and by the time he came back from the bathroom, washing up his face, Enzo had dished up the dinner on the table. "Oh. Let me". Josh came to him but Enzo simply held his hand and took him to his seat. "Help me by eating the food". He gently scolded him, making him smile. "Aye aye Sir". Josh playfully said loading his plate with food but waited until Enzo took his seat too. Enzo saw Josh was playing around with the food. He knew something was disturbing him and it was making him upset too but he was waiting for him to finish their food first. "I am just disappointed in myself. After so many years of devotion and surrendering myself to his will, what did I get in the end? Nothing. I don't know if Caroline had told you or not, he was a gay. I was bi but he was a gay. And yes I did hit on him, I did flirt with him, but you must know that one cannot bend if they don't want to. I feel like everything will be over. No matter how hard I tr
Chapter 67"Carl. Baby where are you?" Caroline looked up from the book she was reading and saw Xavier almost running to her from the door. "There you are?" He bent down to kiss her on the lips before looking around. "Where are the kids?" He asked. "Oh. They had their vaccine shot today. So after making a lot of mess, they fell asleep. Doctor said they will be gone for a couple of hours". She explained with a smile. "A couple of hours. That means I don't have to go out". Xavier said in an indifferent tone. "Going out?" Caroline questioned in confusion. "Yeah. I had planned to kidnap you for a couple of hours while the boys would look after the kids, but I guess we have the house to ourselves now. Yeah?" Xavier tackled her down and hovered her. "Yeah but…". "No, but. No if. I miss you baby". He snuggled into her neck, peppering soft kisses on her skin. "I missed you too". She cupped his face and pulled him down to kiss her. All they could care about was their hunger for each ot
Chapter 68. "Well. This would be the least person I would be expecting to call me". Xavier clenched his jaw listening to the sarcastically happy voice of Izmir over the phone. "I just wanted to thank you for the kind invitation to the launch and nothing else". Xavier said in a calm voice. "Oh. It's nothing. They say, keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer". Izmir said with a little mock tone. "How about we keep a 6 feet distance? Safety measures?" Xavier said in the same tone. "So shall I expect you? You can bring your plus one too". This time Izmir spoke business. "Oh of course. I will surely have company. I will be there at 4pm sharp. The Grand Marquis right?" Xavier noted down the details for confirmation before hanging the call. "Let's see how you react to seeing my plus one". He talked to himself as if it was already amusing him.He picked up his phone to call Joseph to get the car ready to go pick Caroline. The display was to be held two days from the day,
Chapter 69Xavier waited until the chauffeur opened the backdoor of the limousine they were sent to pick them. He went out of the car and stretched his hand for Caroline to step down. She was wearing a dark ruby gown, paired with the finest diamonds and pearls and a subtle makeover. Her hair in tight curls bouncing up and down with every step she took. Her smokey eyes were hidden behind the mask as it was more like a Marquardt Ball than an auction and display of weapons worth millions and billions of dollars. It was a power show.Xavier straightened up his coat and hooked Caroline's hand in the curve of his arm, one to protect her, second to make sure that she was closer to him. They were shown their seating plan and proceeded to table number five in the center of the room. By the arrangement, Xavier could easily count more than five hundred people to be present. Caroline looked around in awe. The ballroom was everything lavish and money. She was aware that it would be filled wi
Chapter 70The auction was postponed to the next day as Izmir had unofficially cut short the time. People were not happy with it but did he care? His mind was still reeling with the events of the evening. 'Mr. Izmir Isac, please meet Caroline Heard Russell. My wife'. Xavier kissed her forehead with love but all Izmir could feel was the burning jealousy that consumed him. 'wow. I didn't know I had a priest hidden among the guests'. He mocked them, making Xavier chuckle.'it's been more than four months Izmir. And why would it matter even if we got married a few minutes ago? I would love to marry her again and again and again, to know that she belongs to me, only me'. Izmir wanted to roar out. To get one of the weapons from the display and shoot Xavier right between his eyes. He schooled his shocked expressions and flashed a little smile at the couple. 'You are right. She is worth every celebration, happiness and pride to show. It came so unexpectedly that I didn't hide my shock. I
