Leo's POV I didn't know how to respond to her request.How do I tell her about her real family without her misunderstanding me?Should I just tell her and get it off my mind?Lots of thoughts were running through my head, and I was feeling restless.“Leo” Amira’s voice pulled me out of my thoughts, and that was when I realized that I haven't given her a reply yet.“I asked if you could help me to search for my biological father,” she repeated, but I couldn't see her expression as the light was turned off.“I will get as much information as I can,” I said while rubbing her back softly.“Promise?” She asked, and I felt conflicted.She is one of the smartest people I know, and I could already tell that she was suspecting me.“I promise to find information on your biological father and tell you as soon as possible,” I said after a few seconds.She breathed a sigh of relief and hugged me tightly.“Good night, Leo,” she said with a tired voice.“Good night, dear,” I replied to her, but my
Amira’s POV I stared at my phone, repeatedly reading the SMS while thinking of what to do.It could be a trap or it could be genuine information.I thought of informing Leo, but his current behavior seems too off, and I don't know if he will help me or try to stop me from going.After thinking for a few minutes, I decided to go alone and just take the risk. I immediately went back to my room to change my outfit.I quickly changed into a pair of jeans and a black crop top, put on my sneakers, and wore a baseball cap.I looked at myself in the mirror, and the outfit was just perfect. I didn't want to wear any complicated outfit that could restrict my movements in case of danger.I picked up my bag and put my phone and some cash in it before heading downstairs again.“Are you going to the boss's house?” Daisy asked me as soon as I walked into the sitting room.“No, I have other plans,” I simply replied to her before walking out of the house.I decided to go to the park to clear my mind.
Leo's POV I was in my office busy signing some documents when my phone suddenly vibrated, which was an indication that I had an SMS.I picked it off the table, and when I saw that it was an SMS from Amira, I frowned with a hint of worry.She has never sent me an SMS before; could it be that she has found out something about her real family?.The thought of her knowing the truth caused me to panic, and I quickly opened the text.When I saw the content of the text, I immediately picked up my jacket and hurriedly made my way out of the office.Whoever sent her that text could be real, and he could also be a fraud, someone with ill intentions.“Boss, is there something urgent?” Send asked as soon as I stepped out of my office.I just gave him my phone as I quickly made my way towards the garage. “Do you think this has something to do with Lucian?” He asked as he quickly followed me.“There is a possibility, but I doubt it. Lucian is always direct with his actions and never goes through
Sasha's POV The smell of blood filled my nostrils as i watched our driver bleeding out of his head.“What ..what …are we going to do?” Bryan asked with a shaky voice while trying to shrink himself into the car seat,if that was possible.“Shut up!” I growled at him angrily.His whining is the least thing I want to hear right now. I just want to survive and my brain seemed quite useless right now because of fear.Cold beads sweat trickled down my face as I watch the man, who was now making his way towards our car.His every step is a reminder that I might not get out of here alive.CRASH!He broke the car window with his gun and unlocked the door.“Sir.. sir ..please…please spare my life” Bryan started crying as soon as he was pulled out of the car.Another man pulled me out through the other door and forcefully threw me on the floor. An intense pain shot through my spine as I landed heavily on the ground. My arms were cut by the stones on the ground and started bleeding.The two men
Leo's POV We tracked the car to a villa in the suburbs, and it only took an hour for us to arrive.As soon as I stepped out of the car, the smell of blood wafted into my nose, and I felt a hint of panic.I saw a man cleaning a car that's filled with blood, and I gestured with my hand for Seb to bring him over.The man was very fat, and he moved very slowly, but he was very focused on what he was doing and didn't even notice our presence until Seb tapped on his shoulder.“Who...who are you?” He asked in panic and quickly shut the car door to hide the blood.Seb grabbed his collar and pulled him over to where I was standing.“Who is in the villa?” I asked with a serious tone, but he refused to answer.I immediately pulled out my gun, as I wasn't in the mood to tolerate any nonsense.“Now, let's try that again; who is inside?” I asked him while stressing every word with the gun placed on his forehead.“What the fuck?!” Seb exclaimed as he quickly took a step back from him.That was when
Amira’s POV My head felt so heavy as I tried to open my eyes; it took a few minutes for my eyes to adjust to the light.The first thing that came into my view was a white ceiling. I immediately sat up to observe the surroundings.I was on a huge bed in a very luxurious room; from the decorations alone, I knew that nothing in this room was cheap.I carefully got down from the bed and walked towards the door, but before I could get to it, I heard footsteps from outside, and it was followed by the jingling sounds of keys.I hurried back to the bed and pretended to be asleep. The door was opened, and the footsteps gradually approached the bed.The bed sank in as the person sat on the bed.“I know you are awake,” a man's deep voice came from beside me.I couldn't just continue to pretend to be asleep, so I immediately sat up with a fierce expression. I had to be prepared for any unexpected situation.I looked at the man's face, and I was too stunned to react for a while. I just kept stari
Forced To Death The sound of heels making contact with the cemented floor filled the dimly lit rooftop.A girl wearing a long red gown and red heels walked to a hidden door at the corner of the rooftop. She enters a password and does a retina scan before the door opens, and she makes her way in.The room is filled with light, unlike the outside. The girl walks to a corner and smiles evilly.There appears to be what looks like a hospital bed in the corner. On getting to the bed, the girl's smile became more sinister and twisted.“Hi sister,” she said with a mocking tone.On the bed, a young woman's hands were chained to two bed posts. She looks emaciated, and her eyes appear lifeless. But it doesn't hide the fact that she was a beautiful woman. She has sea green eyes and long black waist-length hair.“The nurse said that you refused to eat.” She asked the sick woman.“Sasha, I am still shocked that you are the one doing this to me,” the woman said slowly, and tears began to roll down
Reborn At EighteenA smile appeared on her face as she waited for the pain.THUD!As her body collided with the ground, Amira suddenly gasped and woke up from the bed.She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and stared at her hands in disbelief.She clearly died from the fall and could still feel some lingering pain in her bones. How could she be completely fine now?.Wait a minute.She looked around and found that the room looked familiar. The old bookshelf, the broken window, the old bedbug-infested bed—this was her home in the small village where she lived with her grandpa.She quickly ran out of the room, not caring if she was dreaming or not. She went to the sitting room, but her grandpa wasn't there.“Amira, you finally woke up.” Sima said while smiling at her sweetly.Amira found the smile really creepy, as this aunt never liked her, nor does she care if she dies from starvation.She ignores her aunt and walks up to the calendar on the wall.“Umm, Aunt Sima, what is today's
