Now what the hell does these people want? She left me like she was never in my life. And now trying to get me back. Robert was the one to ask her to come here. Now he also came to meet. Not that I hate my family. But they just kicked me out of the family. If they were having any problem, they could share, right? We could have found a way out to get rid of all those. But they just chose to keep me in the dark and fight on their own. I didn't know if it meant anything good or bad, I was just mad at them.
"What do you want now?" I asked Robert coldly. I didn't know he could forget me so fast after getting a companion, my wife. Both of them ditched me.
"At least it's not you whom I want to meet now. It's Adele and Andrew." He smirked.

"I am here to meet Mr. Albert Knight." Adele bit her lips in tension knowing he won't agree again. The day, he left just after Everett's words. He was actually afraid to show his soft corners to the whole world. He didn't like how people around him could read his mind. He was afraid to get caught by them that he loved her all the time didn't matter what she did or not."Ma'am, I'm sorry again. You can't." The receptionist was feeling bad for her. She went yesterday and now again. Maybe she had something urgent."Umm...I understand." She nodded a little with a sigh, "Just inform your president, I won't come here to disturb his works anymore. I don't want him to waste time for me."She went to the elevator with a heavy heart. She didn't know what to do. Though yesterday
Darkness in our life Waiting
Richardo EnterprisesIn the meeting roomAlbert was sitting impatiently while sparing death glares towards Ryan and Adam. Both of them were trying hard to control their laughter as his constant gazes were of no work. The moment Albert's eyes fell on Elora, he earned a sheepish smile from her. For some reason, he was not able to glare at her. He had some soft corners for her."When will your employee come with presentations?" He asked at last. He had been waiting there for the last ten minutes and there was no trace of anyone. He was being patient for the sale of his past relationships with them, basically for Elora."Damn! Jacob Smith has done some better jobs than the actual owners. Why are you so careless?"
Darkness in our life Attack
Adele's POV I could hear faint voices. I knew it was Everett. Though my eyes were too heavy to open, I could understand how tense he was for me. The effect of anesthesia hasn't been out yet. I felt my body felt a ton of weight over it. I could hardly open my eyes. "Amber! You've got your senses back." Everett whispers into my ears, noticing my movements. Before I could nod, he again said, "Take it easy. You will be okay, huh..." I slowly opened my eyes and saw a blurry vision of Albert sitting on the sofa of the cabin, hands on his head. There was a frown between his eyes, his face seemed tired. Everett gave me an assuring smile while pointing at him, "He had been so tensed for you. He was even awake t

"Find who tried to attack her. Don't leave that bastard." Albert called his subordinate as his blood boiled with the incident. Adele was badly injured. His fake anger hurt her that much. If he was beside her that wouldn't have happened."Calm down. I'm not dead yet." Adele smirked at him laying on the hospital bed. Her heart melted knowing how much he cared about her. At last he admitted."How come you are so calm? Did you plan it to scare me?" He rolled his eyes."Come on! I love myself. So I'm not gonna hurt myself. I'm relieved because Robin has gone after them. He will make sure to make them pay. Don't worry." She explained.Albert sighed. It was true. Robin always took care of Adele. Now that he was
Darkness in our life Release
It was the day when Adele was released from the hospital. She needed a few days more to stay there. But Everett managed it somehow. After that day, Albert didn't say anything about their childhood. He didn't mention it. And when she tried to ask anything, he simply avoided. But curiosity was killing her inside."What are you thinking for that long? You didn't even miss me these days." Adam frowned at her as she was engaged in her thoughts. He said a lot of things in the meantime but she didn't respond."Not like that. Tell me how are you and El doing?" She asked with a sigh."Elora? She's such a sweet girl. She never complains about my job." He smiled. That was his first concern. He had to come home late many times, sometimes he couldn't make it. He needed to go on mis

But now it looked like she needed to meddle in his work. So he called him anyway.With a sigh, Adam reached his office, Andrew followed him as well. All of his anxieties ran out, when Adam noticed Elora sitting with a smile."Why did you call me?"

"How's your scar now?" Albert checked on it while drying her hair. Because of the fresh scar, she was not allowed to contact water. So Albert needed to bathe her so carefully. Now she was sitting in his walk-in closet as he was about to treat those scars. "You are seeing it, not me. So you know it better." She smiled faintly. Though the scar was deep, she could bear with the pain. She learnt all kinds of survival techniques and fighting in childhood. After parents ' death, she understood, people needed to be capable of preventing any kind of situation. Life was never fair. "That's healing, slowly. Wait here. I'm coming with medicine." Albert asked her to sit there like an obedient child and went to bring her things. But when did she listen? All the time her eyes were on a hidden box in his closet. She did notice anything like thi

How could she drive with such a new scar?"Not fair. I will lose today." She rolled her eyes then guestered at those scars. Albert smiled seeing her like this. He pinched her nose a little, "Do you think I want to play unfair with you? No way! I was talking about your best friend. Adam called me.""Damn! My friends and families ate calling you more than me. Can you explain?" She asked and narrowed her eyes towards him."Are you jealous?" He couldn't control his laughter."Let's go."

Albert was feeling so relaxed yet stressed at the same time. It felt good to get a family back. Again he took a huge responsibility not knowing even if he was eligible for it or not. He noticed something has changed in Adele. She was looking so calm and composed unlike times when she opened up herself. Sitting next to her laptop lazily in the bed, she kept checking some important files. "You are not even working, what are you really thinking?" Albert asked curiously as he noticed her unmindfulness. Adele didn't say anything. She could only sigh. "I am sorry." Albert raised his head to look at her. What was the apology for? "Pardon?" "I'm sorry, Albert." She closed the laptop and bit her lips. "Why are you saying sorry? Did anything happen?" Albert

Licas and Alexandra reached there almost immediately.Jacob lifted his hand a little to touch her head. Brushing fingers on her skin, he felt the warmth reached to his heart.

Adele's POV"Nathan Lan? Or should I say Alessandro Colombo?" I looked into his eyes. It was giving me devilish pleasure seeing him tied up helpless, at our mercy. I couldn't believe it when I called him 'Brother Nathan'. I liked him so much. He was like my family. I believed him all my life.Fuck him!Fuck to that belief I had on him. He's a bloody betrayer. He betrayed my emotions. I was a freakin fool to believe him. Suddenly I found I caused a lot of trouble in my family. My stubbornness just gave them a hard time. My fucking belief led Elora to a danger. I am hopeless."Adele Wilson, you are such an idiot. Took so long to understand." He was laughing like a devil, which he really was. Xavier was his peopl

Adele's POV Lucas seemed tense. His hands were cold when I touched it. I couldn't understand what he was afraid of. But one thing for sure, he was guilty. The whole family was giving him cold shoulder from then except Sil. If it was not Albert, I would have misunderstood him too. He had nothing to do in all these. He was just forced to listen to the commands and he could only do that. "Amber…." I heard Sil's blurry voice suddenly. Maybe she woke up from sleep. She was never a late riser but maybe emotional breakdown and mental tiredness made her sleep until noon today. But what about her office? It's not a weekend. "Sil, did you get a day off?" I asked curiously when she started to get and leaned on the headboard. "She was not feeling good. So I just called Adam and informed she won't be in her office today. She needs rest. She
Darkness in our life Truth hurts
Albert was sitting there in a daze. He couldn't think straight. Sitting in the middle of the bed, he was lost in thoughts. Adele was feeling a little guilty. After all her cousin did so bad to him. He knew it still never complained. He loved her without any hesitation."Albert." She called and sat beside him. She patted his shoulder a little, "I'm sorry. I knew Jacob Smith was your father but I didn't inform you.""It's okay. He's scary. Good thing you didn't pick up a fight with him." Albert leaned on her shoulder. He was feeling vulnerable. He was broken inside."I'm sorry, I didn't know Lucas….." She sighed.Albert shook his head with her words, "Don't blame him. He had nothing to do. He was forced like me. But I'm wondering why he took all of the blame on his shoulder. Why didn't he protest?"
Darkness in our life Blame
"So dad was killed because of this?" Adele's voice trembled while asking this. She knew the answer, yet she thought to confirm. She wasted two years of her life because of Ramond Knight. Turns out Ramond Knight was just an advantage seeker. The real villain was Jacob Smith, yet he didn't have any intentions of doing that. How could she blame him? "Kind of. You know the story." Jacob Smith knew many lives were at stake because of him. Yet he was never practically involved with them. Wasn't it an irony? "So my dad died because of my father in law? I don't know how to accept that." She sighed. She didn't want to accept that. The little respect she had for Jacob was long gone. She was thinking how Albert was reacting to all these. He loved Mason Knight and Elijah Wilson a lot. Now they died willingly or unwillingly because of his real dad. Sometimes trying to protect him, sometimes without any reason. It must be
Darkness in our life Revelation
Albert's POV I was feeling like my whole world got shaken. My whole existence was a lie, a lie created by Jacob Smith and directed by Lucas Wilson. I was looking at Ms. Rivera all the time. What did she mean? I was her brother? I was her biological brother. Moreover I was the son of Jacob Smith. Jacob Smith!? He was known as the assistant of Old master Richardo, Adam and Ryan's grandfather. After their father's death, he took care of the family and businesses. But who knew he was the real owner of a Mafia organisation?! That means I'm the heir of this organisation? Things were really complicated. What about dad? My dad? Mason Knight? What about uncle Wilson? Did Robert know that? I couldn't think s
Darkness in our life Family dinner
"Why did you marry me, Adam?" Those words suddenly fell from Elora's mouth. She couldn't help but ask after all these. At first she really thought it was just a novel type flash marriage. He needed to get rid of his grandfather's pampering words and that's why he wanted to marry her. But the first confusion came into her brain, when she found Ryan was his brother and Adele was his friend. If that was true then no way he never heard about her or saw her. Of course they had her pictures. But things became very complicated when he was Alexandra's subordinate, even Ryan included. All those things could only be coincidence, well she didn't believe it. There was something bigger than she thought. And she knew she was right. Because she found Jacob's text in his phone. Adam didn't reply. He had nothing to say. Things were not easy to explain and he knew Jacob would do that tonight. So it was good not to open his mo
