7. Her regret
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Stella's point of view...
My head was throbbing as if someone had hit me with a hammer.
The cold evenings breeze was not helping either. Whatever happened today was not less than a scene of drama.
I stood stuck to the wall outside the washroom while the four guards who led all of us (the employees) outside of the washroom stood shielding the area.
Not my head alone but my heart was also throbbing inside my chest while those lifeless eyes staring at the ceiling of Tisha flashed across my own eyes. It is truly unbelievable that the woman who ruined my meeting fifteen minutes ago was lying dead in the room!
Moreover I witnessed someone being stabbed. The litres of blood oozing from her body wars not leaving the sight of my eyes.
Not directly but Tisha's face was not leaving my sight and the possibility of my few hours boss killing her was another reason which did not let me rest in ease. How cozily was he sitting when she had barged in the meeting room? He behaved as if he never knew who she was.
And the accusations she has put on him back there in the meeting room, it was forcing me to doubt him more and more.
Can it be that he really gave her position (the post of the head designer) to me?
Can it be that he purposely gave me that post so that he can come closer to me!
Anything is possible, although I would never have thought this after Megan had knocked her thoughts in my head but now, seeing Tisha's dead body, I can only blame Max for her dead.
"Get aside, everyone, stay away from the crime scene!" My trance was broken by a hoarse and heavy voice.
When I looked up from the floor at the owner of the voice, my throat dried seeing three cops walking with in uniform towards us. They were intact with guns in their hands as they came walking towards the area where I stood with five other female colleagues of mine.
"This way officer" The guard who have insisted me to exit the washroom guided the officers inside of the same and the door was closed behind them.
Not even a minute had passed after the cops in inform entered inside that Max my boss, he came out of the same door looking expressionless. All the eyeballs of the employees stared him while he stared only at me.
It looked like he was trying to say something regardless the sweat beads on his forehead said a different story. I still can't bring myself to realization that he became a reason behind someone's death! I regret coming here today.
Did I not commit a mistake by joining his firm, did I?

His lips quivered like he had something to tell nevertheless just like how I did in the washroom inside, I avoided him. My cheeks burned as I can sense his gaze was on me. He was just looking at me and I do not know why!My eyes were burning and I wanted to cry but damn, I could not. I drank my tears trying to be strong in front of the world. All I wanted right now was just to go away from here and never come back.Dream job!Sarcasm hit me, well that it was for me until the morning.

The day was tiring. The cab stopped in front of my building. I paid the driver and rushed to my apartment. I badly needed a cold shower to calm my brain down.The door was locked it means Megan had still not returned. With shaking hands I somehow unlocked the door with spare key and turned the lights on. Ripping my clothes off of my body, I turned the water tap on.The water was mild and I sank myself in the bathtub. This is my favorite place after my bed. I still could not erase those images off my head."Could Max Stokes really kill her?"This question rotated once withina minute."But he was in the meeting with all of us!"I answered my own question."May be he ordered someone to fulfill his task!"After the good bath of thirty minutes my aching muscles relaxed but the headache became more worse.

Stella tried to pull away her hand, she literally wanted to go out of his reach for sometime at least for the time being unless it is not revealed whether he had really killed Tisha or not. Still, the thought of Tisha's blood drenched body lying on the bathroom floor was revolving inside her brain. And his emotionless face after killing a girl was not letting her trust him either."Uh Sir, please leave my hand" Stella wriggled, his grip was tight and the more she moved her wrist between his clutch the more her skin burned as his fingers pressed against her wrist tighter and tighter. " Miss Miller we need to talk come with me "... He said one again while Max yanked her by the wrist. His words sounded more like an order as he pulled her along nonchalantly towards his car avoiding her annoyance towards his act. His car was parked far away from the church hence it was nice on his part as he would ge

Max's point of view... I banged the steering wheel hard in frustration. After driving off from the cemetery. I wanted some piece of mind after that argument with Stella. I don't know why but her words were affecting me. Her suspicious eyes got me irritated while her words rang in my ears. I admit that I am a jerk but I really did not kill Tisha. Everybody knows how and who I am and really don't give a fuck to the world however her eyes, they dared to mock at me even though she did not utter a word. She judged me without seeking an explanation.That is true I am not a good guy, I gave many secrets kept hidden from the world yet it gives her no right to look at me like that! Gosh, I why do I feel so affected. No, no Max, don't let her affect you. She is not supposed to be affecting you!Don't forget that you have not brought her in your life for pampering her, yo

Third person's point of view... The sharp edge of the broken bottle pierced Maria's skin and blood gushed out of the slit that she made on her neck by herself. The moment was filled with mixed emotions of agony, grief and sadness. Looked like the time just stopped. Maria cried blocking the view of her brother's face once she shut her lashes together at the pain growing in her neck. "Maria!" Max almost stumbled with his step and fell on Maria's step while he attempted to pull the broken bottle from Maria's hand. He quickly snatched the broken bottle from her hand. Throwing it on the floor he gritted his teeth along the noise of shattering bottle. It broke on the floor in tinier pieces than the brown glass table. Huffing between his red angry eyes, Max placed a tight slap on her face. "Are you crazy, what if something has happened to you? Not about yourself but at least think about me, Maria Stokes!" he screamed

Max glanced himself in the big mirror that came in his way towards the drawing room. That was where Kevin has taken Stella to wait until he arrived. He combed his hair with fingers and attempted to flatten the creases on his coat. Maria had her fingers curling under his coat to strongly that visibly crumbled creases can be seen clearly. Max was fidgeting to flatten them when his eyes landed on the coat of white shirt inside the coat. "Shit!" there was blood, Maria's blood. It must have soaked within his shirt when she was cuddling him possessively. Max thanked his luck and decision for having looked in the mirror before appearing across her, other wise she could have noticed that too and doubted him way too much since he was not injured at all. He does not want her to see him in condition that would make her feel suspicious of him. Not at least at the moment when he can't wait to see her begging to him for the job.

Max's point of view...Just as the sun gave its visit, my eyes opened feeling the warm rays of it falling my face. I can't hold my excitement of seeing her face after going to the office today. Quickly throwing the blanket on the bed beside me, I stretched my arms sitting straight on the bed, shirtless. The cool and chilly winds coming from the air conditioner hit my skin and making my morning joyous. Leaving the bed with a yawn I removed my office wear and placed them on the bed while I dashed in the wash room with a towel. The warm drops of water falling from the shower overhead soothed my skin. It felt like all the sluggishness and exhaustion was spurting out of my body and combining with the water before it slipped off me. I pressed my hair behind letting the water fall on my face. I don't remember as to how many days did I waste to search Stella Miller, the mafia king's daughter. I worked d

78Max's POVWe entered the mansion quite secretly without having the guards know about it. Malik, with half of the people, stayed back at the entrance of the second floor as I covered the further distance with the remaining people. It was my war and that being the case, I moved forward.We encountered three guards on my way who were handled by my people while I walked further. Stella was kept in the third room toward the end of the corridor from that side, so I was supposed to rush from this end to the other end, "Stay back," I eyed one of my mates as I leaned against the wall and surveyed the scene across us.I was left in shock when I found the area clear as heck. There was no dog as said by Kevin guarding in the corridor at all. It was totally clear."Stay here, I will go and see..." I hurried my steps going toward the door belonging to the roo

Saturday,In the morning,Along with a team of trusted men, Max left for the New York Airport. He disguised himself as an old obese man with pepper and salty hair. His stubble was completely shaved and a fake mustache put on. The others have disguised themselves too, that is because from the police officers to the security guards at the airport had links with the mafia boss. Max could not risk himself to be seen by them.They sat in different corners in the waiting lounge until their flight was announced. Although Malik could use his private jet but he preferred to play the fair game as there was a chance that the mafia king's secret spies would be keeping an eye on him and all the other strong personalities in the underworld in order to know who was their friend and who was the enemy. And since he was playing the role of the mafia Lord's friend, there was no way he would come in front of him as an enemy.

Max's internal body clock and the full moon shining its light through the massive window of his bedroom told him that it was the middle of the night. He was past that feeling of being insecure and scared for Stella's whereabouts and condition. He was tired but not sleepy. His eyes silently stared at the dull and yellowish pale looking ceiling between his soundless respiration.He was thinking about their future. His future, his sister's, Stella's and obviously Kevin's. They have come a long way ahead now, and there was no going back either. After years of struggling, he was finally getting the chance to meet the bastard boss of the underworld who was now as weak as Voldemort was toward the end of the Harry Potter series.Lucifer Miller was powerless.

The kick made Stella dizzily blink her eyes before she fell back on the floor along with the chair and her eyes closed.The camera ripped off from her fainted body and focused on the cruel Boss's face, "Max Stokes... Nice game. I am impressed by your come back but I am afraid my daughter's treason has fueled up my anger, so if you don't want me to hurt her, come out of your shell and see me. Let's talk it out— face to face." Lucifer Miller pressed the tip of his shoe on Stella's cheek. He let out a satanic laugh and spit on her face doing everything that would enrage Max. ***" This video was shot on Wednesday, we got it today though!

Stella's point of view...*I was walking on a lonely road that was fogged with smoke. Nothing could be seen except a narrow path that stretched forward. I walked and walked unless I came across a spot, and gasped.I saw myself engulfed in Max's arms. We were standing right at the spot where I shot him in that silent and empty area."Max, no! Please don't make me do it." It did not take me a moment to realize that I was taken into the past to watch the same scene where I lost him forever.He smiled pressing his chin on my head and whispered, "Do it Stella. You will have to do it. Remember, it is for the good." As soon as he finished that statement, *shot* I gasped holding my mouth as his head fell back before he detached from my body.I was rooted to my spot. Neither could I move nor take a breath. I wanted to go there and save M

The days kept rolling by. Stella's condition kept falling and worsening with each day. Nelson who was taking care of her in his mansion completely went off track. He could not concentrate on his own company, let alone the management of Array & Thrice.The shares of his business kept falling in the market, there was no one who was willing to invest in his company nor help him in this time of crisis. Even the ones who were investing in Lucifer Miller's companies and businesses raised their hands and backed out."This is ridiculous! Within my rule for thirty years, I never faced this situation. I am losing my grip in the underworld one by one. If this keeps going on then we will be bankrupted within no time." The most feared mafia lord spoke like a helpless damsel in distress.His head adorned creases of worry while the three important men around him looked at the very files spread on the cir

Nelson's POV"Nelson please, don't go. Just stay with me. Please.""I am here with you, Stella. Let me just go and see your father. I swear I will be back soon." I put her to bed and covered her with the blanket.I don't want to say but honestly this crap has got on my nerves now. Stella and her visions are pathetic. After Max Stokes' death she has drastically fallen sick, and everywhere she just hallucinates him."Please be back soon.""I swear I will be. Just give me a minute." I had to force a smile even when I didn't feel like smiling at her.This was really something I was doing against my will. Having kissed her on the forehead, I moved out of her room, "Jeeez!" as soon as I was out, my mouth twisted and I cursed my ungrateful destiny.I thought after Max Stokes' death I would be able to enjoy my life wit
