"I, Nikolai Kensington, will make you so rich, you'll walk on money. I'll place you above your enemies and make them worship at your feet. You'll no longer be known as the timid Adira, but you'll become known as one of the most powerful women in the country." Those were the words that changed Adira's life forever. Adira Ravenswood was heartbroken when Lancelot divorced her to be with his second lover. They had been friends from childhood, so she had loved him so dearly and didn't know how to move on without him. While Lancelot was from a very rich home, Adira was very poor, and she felt that was part of the reasons he had quit the marriage. Everyone ridiculed her, Lancelot's mother froze her accounts so she couldn't have access to the money she had gotten from him. Adira's own family mocked and looked down on her. They said she could never amount to anything. Adira was broken and dejected and was at the verge of taking her life when the most powerful, but cold-hearted man in the country showed up and offered her a juicy proposal - one that would make her trample on every single person that's ever hurt her. But it came with a condition - a condition that was very easy, yet so difficult.

76Blood gushed from his head, he staggered and his entire body lost balance.Lyra took a step back, the blood-stained knife in her hand. And as soon as she did, the mighty Jagger slumped to the floor.Lyra watched with shaky breath as he writhed and gasped for air. Fearfully, she watched and could do nothing.His widened eyes looked at her, calling for help. Until finally, he stopped struggling. His eyes remained open, but she could tell they weren't alive anymore. He was...dead.The knife fell off her hand, and only then did she realize the gravity of what she had done. With her bare hands, she just killed her own father. She killed him!"No..." She muttered inaudibly, fear eating her up.Disgust crawled into her stomach, making her throw up instantly in the room. Tears spilled from her eyes as she dabbed her lips and looked at her father's corpse on the floor. How did she become this? How could she become this?"No!" She let out a painful cry. Her anger had gotten the best of her.

Lyra walked into the house and found Jagger there in the living room, having some apples. He had a knife with which he cut out the apple before taking it into his mouth. He seemed so happy, while she was there, mourning."Lyra." He called, his mouth full with a chunk of apple. "You didn't tell me you were coming."Lyra's eyes were sore and swollen. She fixed her gaze on him as she dropped her bag on the parting table in the room."How do you do it?" She asked in a low tone. "How do you manage to stay so happy when our biggest plan crashed a week ago? You didn't even bother to comfort me, neither did you seem worried that we had lost a lot of money. You didn't even try to come up with an alternative or something. It's so unlike...you."Jagger scoffed. He sliced out a piece of apple and threw it into his mouth before looking at her."Did you say an alternative? What was I supposed to do? Point a gun at the Kensingtons and threaten them to transfer their wealth to me? You really think th

Bellamy and her husband ran into Nikolai's room and gasped when they found him awake on the bed. When Na-ri had called and told them about it, they couldn't believe. But finally setting their eyes on him..."My dear son..." She whimpered as she went closer, holding his hand. "Good Lord! You're awake."Nikolai was still lying on the bed, and his face etched with concern when his parents came in alone."Nik, how're you feeling?" Mr. Vincent asked, going to stand at the edge of the bed.Nikolai's eyes were fixed on the door, and when he didn't see who he was expecting, he looked at his parents."Where's she? Why isn't she here?" He asked feebly.Bellamy shared a glance with Na-ri. Na-ri had also told them over the phone that he was asking for Adira.Wearing a smile, Bellamy caresssed his hand."Son, you just woke up after a long time. I believe you need as much rest as you can get. Stop worrying about anyone and just...""Where's she?!" He half-yelled. It was now becoming obvious that so

Adira found it difficult believing Bellamy's words. Was she for real? How could this woman have the guts to say this to her face?She was hurt, she wouldn't deny; hurt that Nikolai had been processing their divorce. Of course, he told her about it. But now, it was just too difficult to believe.She sniffed as an uncontrolled tear dropped to her cheek. Looking up at Bellamy, she found no emotions on the woman's face. When did the woman change so much? She used to love her a lot.She looked at the paper again before pushing it away, towards Bellamy."I'm not signing it." She said in a hardened tone.Bellamy's brows furrowed in surprise. She never expected that rigidity from Adira."Are you being serious?" She scoffed. "Do you have any idea what I'm offering you? If you agree to sign these documents, I'll make sure we drop the charges against you and you can be out of jail. You'll be free."The temptation of the offer lingered on Adira's mind. Being in here for the past one week had not

It's been a week now.Vesper seemed to be the one benefitting more from the death of Mr. Thatcher as he felt there was no will to share. Due to Nikolai's absence, his position at the company had gotten pretty high. It was all he's ever wished for.His grandfather had been buried already, but the air at home was always tinged with sadness. He even had to move out of the mansion as he got tired of the unending gloom.He just finished from a meeting and was walking out with his assistant when a call came into his phone. It was Kalina again. He'd lost count of the number of times she had called him for the day, and it was becoming annoying already.Grudgingly, he answered the call."Finally! Someone decided to take my call." She exclaimed, her voice echoing with anger. "What is going on, Vesper? You have been ignoring me for ages now.""I was in a meeting, okay? And you were interrupting." His reply was peeved.Kalina scoffed, like she couldn't believe it. "Seriously? Now, I'm being a pes

Lyra ran into her father's house and fell onto the couch immediately, crying her eyes out. Jared was there as well, but neither of them said a word to Lyra as she wept profusely."All I needed was one more day." She whimpered, her face covered in her palms. "The will was to be ready today, and he'd have signed it already. My life would've been all better by now."Jagger had a glass of wine with him, and he sipped from time to time, saying nothing to his hurting daughter."Lyra, come on, it's enough." Jared rolled her eyes, tired of her whinging already."I'm also angry that the plan was ruined at the last minute, but you shouldn't kill yourself over it. With the rate at which you've been crying, you might actually fall sick."Lyra lifted her face from her palms to look at him."You think I'm worried about being sick right now? Do you have any idea what I've planned? How much that money was supposed to help me?" She pointed a hand to her chest."My life is ruined, Jared! But of course,

Adira let out a terrifying scream immediately, her eyes nearly bulging out of her sockets. The bag she held slipped to the floor, and her heart pounded repeatedly against her ribcage. She was too frightened to move and simply watched as blood gushed from his head. It didn't take long before people rushed out, drawn by her scream. First,it was Finn and his wife, followed by Vesper and Kalina. They all expressed great shock at the sight in front of them. "Grandpa!" Finn and Vesper ran to his unconscious body. His wheelchair had fallen along with him and was beside his body on the floor. From every indication, someone pushed him. Finn and Vesper were trying to get him from the floor when Bellamy came out. She gasped at the sight she found. "What the hell happened here? What happened to him?!" Her eyes were already sore. Nobody could say anything and instead, focused on getting the old man from the floor. Adira's heart raced heavily. She watched with bated breath as Finn and Vesper

Vesper walked back to her, a scrowl on his face."What nonsense are you spewing, Adira?"He asked hoarsely. "From what Na-ri said, you're the reason he got drunk and drove out in that state. So, why the fúck are you trying to point accusing fingers at me?"Adira rose to her feet, still maintaining a calm look."You shouldn't get so worked up. I'm just asking because, you seem to be the only one benefitting from all this.""Well, I didn't do it. So, watch your words." He glared at her and left.Adira fell back to her seat, finally letting her weakness shadow her features. Nikolai's condition was making her lose her mind. She knew Vesper had nothing to do with the accident, she was just upset that he was benefitting from it.****†****†****†Jared was in a bad mood and decided to stay home for the day. He was in his room when his phone started off beside him. Glancing at the screen, he discovered it was his father.He ignored it at first, not wanting to speak with the man. But he called a

68Nikolai's condition was very critical - the doctor said. They've done all they could for him at the moment, but he was still not regaining consciousness.Adira got to learn that the accident was so bad, and it was only by a miracle he had been able to come out of the car alive. This got her even more frightened. What would have happened if he wasn't lucky? How would she be able to live with herself, knowing she caused his death? Even if it was not entirely her fault, still it started with her.The following morning, most of the family members had to leave to take care of other things. Bellamy didn't want to go, but she was convinced by her husband that she needed a bath and a change of clothes.As for Adira, she couldn't go.When she had the chance to be alone with him, she went into the room and a tear dropped to her cheek. Her Nikolai wasn't looking any better.He had an oxygen pipe beneath his nose, had a big bandage wrapped around his head, his leg was placed on support and a d

Adira knocked on the door of her family's house, her luggages beside her on the floor. As she waited weakly for the door to get opened, she kept blinking back the tears that burnt at the back of her eyes. The door creaked open, revealing her sixteen year old sister. "Mum! Adira is home!" Elara said with a streak of sadism. Since the door was wide open, Adira was able to take a peek into the house and found her family seated round the dining, having dinner. Their faces got lit up with mockery upon seeing her at the door. "Oh... The rejected wife is finally home to her rejected family!" Her twenty-three year old step-sister hooted with laugh, pausing on the meat she had been trying to pieces into several parts. "Dear Adira, you've finally signed the divorce papers, haven't you?" Her step-mother taunted. Her father and step-brother just stayed quiet on the dining, throwing glances at her. With a sniff, Adira picked up her luggages and began rolling it into the old creaky house. He...
