"Nathan Lan!!!" I was feeling like killing him. He gave me more than two hundred files to sign in just one hour. Did he think my hand was a machine to sign without any hesitation? And here he goes, smoking cigarettes in the smoking zone leaving me all behind.
But shouting at him would never make my job easy. So I again gave attention to the files. I could sign those without any problem as I was sure he managed everything with efficiency. But it was my responsibility to recheck. In case of any problem.
When I was busy checking those files, I noticed the phone he left on the table suddenly rang. I was sure the number was in this country. But I never had any interest in meddling in anyone's privacy. Though I didn't want to peek, my eyes went to that again and again.
Not my fault!

Darkness in our life Meeting Eva
Ryan was fit in his tailored shirt and trousers. Though they were casuals, he looked deadly hot in them. Hairs brushed at a side, spiked, hands kept in the pocket he walked all the way with confidence. After walking for more than ten minutes, he found Eva was waiting for him on the bridge. She was always punctual and that's what Ryan loved about her. "You flied all the way to meet me?" He was really happy about that yet he didn't want her to stay here, at least not at the moment. The city was now having a calm. But the storm was in the way, it would destroy so much. Powers would clash and death would be the reward. "Why do you look so gloomy? Aren't you happy to meet me?" Eva pouted, "You are still a little rabbit." He wanted to slap her forehead with her palm. "I'm not a rabbit. Abd whatever, just leave this city. It's not so good to stay here. And you don't

Fuck! Ryan cursed loudly. He was exactly afraid of this and that happened. He turned his head towards Elora and both of them nodded in understanding. In a blink of eyes, Elora took out a revolver from the back of the sofa and Ryan found it at the telephone stand. As he was a regular visitor to Adam's House, he had the idea where things could be. Since they were cops, they needed to show the estimate of their bullets. So it was good to use unlisted ones, they were safe. Eva was looking at them with confusion. Maybe she didn't expect to see anything like this. It was beyond her expectations. She looked at Ryan with wonder. She knew he was a cop and he needed to fight against bad people but never assumed things were so hard. Now she understood why he was pestering her to return. Before Eva could even react, she was pulled behind the couch and the firing session started. Bot

Adele's POV "Adele!" I noticed Mariah was looking paler than before. I know she needed to work harder because of my absence. But I had no other options. One after another attack was chasing me. I didn't get time to come here. "How are you? How have you been? Do you know how much I tried to find you? But you vanished just like magic." I found her concerned tone and eyes moist. She hugged me so tightly that I could feel the same sense of warmth. "I'm okay. Just a little accident happened back then." I smiled bitterly not knowing how to explain all these. I've never told her about my family background nor my marital status. She just knew nothing about me. "Are you hurt? Was it serious?" She started to panic. I sighed in my mind. Long time anyone except my family cared for me like this. This meant so much to me.

"Mariah, I'm telling this for your good. Please don't come to the cafe. If you want you can have a job in my company, I will manage the car, house everything for you. But just don't come here like this." Albert's words confused her. She didn't know why he was requesting so weirdly. He wanted to get her a job instead of this cafe! Was he serious?Mariah looked at Adele and asked about the situation through her eyes. Adele knew why Albert wanted all these. He was afraid of her life risks. She has been with Adele for two months and almost everyone knew Adele had soft corners for her. So he didn't want to take any chances. He just wanted to keep everything safe"And why are you trying to stop me from coming here?" Mariah didn't believe Albert. He was the man she hated most. He gave her a pile of threats and warnings for this cafe."Mariah, I'm not that bad either." Albert smiled bitt

"Are you okay? You were hurt. Why did you agree to go car racing?" Lucas was concerned about Alexandra's health. But he was more concerned about the truth of their relationship. It was nothing to digest in seconds. Jacob looked at Lucas with a smirk. That man was concerned about his wife over his father in law. Good! "She was the one to propose about car racing. Don't scold me." Jacob's look was playful yet it contained a stern and waring tone in the depth. Lucas didn't know whether to laugh or cry but for sure he needed to pay for it later. "Come on, Lucas! I'm okay." She wanted to assure him. "Talk less. Your cheeks are not fully recovered." He rolled his eyes. Jacob was looking at the couple with an affec

"Stop the car." Alexandra suddenly said when she found no reply from Lucas. She understood everything now. The Richardo family owed something to Jacob. So when he was in trouble, they came for aid. Once the cops and the opposing mafia found him like a hungry wolf. His wife got killed. He hid his children somewhere and took the shelter of Richardo's. Then he helped the family in business and made it the richest one in Asia. And if that's true, Ryan and Adam knew everything. They knew Lucas was not the real mafia king. He was just a puppet, just a show off. They knew and that's why they worked with her. Ryan was connected to Elora and Adam was connected to Adele. Because Jacob asked them to have an eye on Lucas. Adam knew everything when he married Elora. All of them played with the Wilson family. But some things were s

Adele's POVCan I call myself a sadist? Why am I feeling so much enjoyment seeing that man suffer? Well, he deserved to suffer. He tried to attack us on the car racing track. He helped those kidnappers of sil to escape. Though he was the sacrifice in Jacob Smith's part of plan, still he had connection with the real boss."Ahhhh!!" I heard him groan. His voice was too weak to be heard. Why not? I've been pouring boiling oil on his skin and at the same time cutting his skin deeper and deeper.Actually I was not in the mood to make him split the truth. This had nothing to do with Andrew's case. So taking a legal step was nothing but a foolish move. I thought I would punish him in my ways. Long time, I didn't become brutal. I found I was craving for blood. Enough of being good for the last two years. That gave me nothing but shits.I again cut

"Elora, I haven't met you before. You are such a nice girl. At least you love to work more than your sister." Nathan acted as if was just frustrated with Adele. She never cared about her own business."And you think I care about it too much? If I did that, Lucas would have never let me go out of San Francisco. None of us give a damn to his businesses. My poor cousin! He needs to do everything by himself. Believe me we sometimes become a real pain in ass." Elora knew Nathan had reasons to complain but she didn't want anyone bad mouthing about Adele in front of her.Nathan was amused by her behaviour. Seemed like the family was really hard to get. They always work according to their wishes. With a devilish smirk, Nathan said, "I heard you had a flash marriage with Adam Richardo. Rich man!"

Darkness in our life End of the story
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

"Are you okay?" Alexandra asked in a low voice. Jacob got injured because of escaping from the car. He was taken to the hospital by them. 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. It was his daughter whom he never got close to him. He loved her but never could say that. Unknowingly a drop of tear fell from his eyes. He didn't cry for a long time. Only he cried in front of his wife. She was gone taking all of his tears away. Now there came his children, who could make him emotional.He nodded a little with a small smile. He was really happy. He got his family back, with him. They even saved him. No matter how much they hated him, they still had a soft corner for him."Are you angry with me?" He asked in a shaky voice. He knew the answer.
Darkness in our life End of Colombo
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
Darkness in our life Start over
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
