OMAR'S POV :"Let's go." I said with a smile."You don't have a problem, right?" She asked me, furrowing her brows. "Why would there be any? Your father just wanted to make sure that his daughter is in safe hands. After all, you have never traveled alone and he has been taking care of you. He is just worried about you, Grace. And, I can understand a father's concern about his daughter." I said and a huge smile formed on her face which made my heart flutter seeing her smile. "Thank you for understanding." She smiled brightly. I chuckled and followed her into her house. Her house looks cute just like her. Even though it is a small house, it was neatly organized. I saw a middle-aged man sitting on the couch, waiting for us. He rose from the couch when he saw us walking towards him with a smile on his face. But that smile faded when he walked closer to us. He froze, his eyes filled with shock and he looked so tensed when he saw me. "Dad, this is my boss, Mr. King." Grace introduced
OMAR'S POV : "You like her, don't you?" I was completely lost at his sudden question and looked at him arching my brows. But he has this expression on his face as if he already knows the answer to his question but wanted to confirm it by getting the answer from me. And I am not planning on denying it. I don't have to lie to him and I won't. "Yes," I answered honestly, looking straight into his eyes. A smile twitched on his face when he heard my answer. "I can see that in your eyes." He said, smiling heartfully and patting my shoulder. "And the way you talk about her earlier shows me how much you care about her. And I guess she doesn't have a clue about it, am I right?" I nodded, "Yes, I haven't told her yet and-" "And you are planning on telling her soon. Perhaps on this business trip. Right?" He finished my sentence with a smirk on his face. Exactly, how I thought about telling her my feelings. And also, why did he press on the word business as if he knew that it isn't one? "
OMAR'S POV : "That's what endangers her." He said which doesn't make any sense."What? What do you mean?" I asked him, arching my brows and looking straight into his eyes. He shook his head, "I can't say anything right now. But you will know everything once the time comes. And I can sense the time is almost there. And also the danger is closer than we think it is. Never leave her alone, Omar." He clutched both of my hands together as if he was pleading with me not to leave her side. I would never leave her side even if he asked me to. I nodded and he smiled. "Now go. She is waiting for you. I bet she would be thinking of what's happening here. Don't let her wait." He chuckled and walked out with me towards the car. Every word he said, is quite confusing. How come she is in danger? And why would it endanger her if she is not his daughter? He didn't answer my questions but added more to my list. But one thing is clear from his words. She is in grave danger and I need to protect her
GRACE'S POV : "Nervous?" Omar asked me when he saw me fidgeting my fingers continuously. Yes, I'm nervous, this is the first time I'm going to his house. Of course, I'm nervous! I nodded before answering, "A little." He smiled while taking my hand into his, and tracing my palm with the pad of his thumb. That gesture relaxed my nerves and eased my tension. He knows how to relax me with just a single gesture. A single touch from him can calm my nerves in a second, I wonder why? I smiled at him and waited for the elevator. The same elevator where Catherine tried to insult me. I wonder where she is now, I haven't seen her for a while now. Maybe she is busy. And when I thought about that incident, I remember how she defended me. Alina, she is the one who saved me from the humiliation which Catherine had planned that day. I wonder where she is now, she is so supportive and very kind. And when I look at her, I just couldn't help but wish to have a sister like her. She is the kind of si
ALINA'S POV : "What?" I gasped in shock. I was surprised to hear that my sister is here. I mean why would Sarina come here? She is still a kid and doesn't even know this place. Before I was going to ask him, Rudy moved slightly away from his spot revealing… "Grace?" I was surprised to see her and a smile played on my lips immediately after seeing her. "Hey Alina…" She waved at me with the same cute smile that I remembered when I first saw her a few days ago, which shows her cute dimples. If something matches between us then that definitely is our dimples. Apart from our physical appearance, our characters are quite different. She is a cute and innocent girl while I am completely the opposite of her. I ran towards her and hugged her tightly not giving her enough space to breathe, but she didn't complain and hugged me back with the same intensity. What can I say, I like her that much and I don't even know why I connected with her so easily just like I connected with Emily. They ar
ALINA'S POV : "You are?" Camilla asked Grace, who was looking at us in confusion as she doesn't know what was going on here. "Cami, this is Grace, my personal assistant, and Grace, that's my sister, Camilla." Omar did the introduction part. Grace smiled saying hello, but Camilla went and hugged Grace so that she wouldn't feel awkward in front of her. That's what Camilla is, always welcomes people with open heart and makes sure that they won't feel uncomfortable around her even though she is one of the scariest assassins in the world. "I heard a lot about you," Camilla said with a smile and then winked at Omar with a smirk on her face. Omar chuckled lightly and shook his head while smiling. "Grace, let's go. We have a lot to catch up on." Camilla said placing her hands on both of her shoulders. Grace looked at Omar who smiled and nodded, "Go, I'll put your bag in your room." She nodded and then shifted her gaze towards me. Taking my hand in hers, "You are coming with me, right?"
SHANE'S POV : "Will you just stop doing that?" I frowned while looking at my little brother, who is hell-bent on glaring at me with a frown formed on his forehead ever since we set foot on the jet. I bet that frown will leave a permanent mark on his face if he does that for one more hour. It's been an hour and a half by now, but he still hasn't stopped giving me those deadly glares as if he can scare me with that exact copy of my eyes. Right now, we all are in my private jet going to L.A. to attend the ball. And everyone is busy with their own company, some of them are sleeping while some of them are passing their time by talking with others. Omar is with his assistant, whose name is Grace, she looks exactly like what he has told me. An innocent little girl who has gotten the interest of the calm yet hard-to-please King. Omar, you may think you know him just by his looks and his calm personality, but trust me when I say there is a lot more. He just doesn't show it, but he is stil
THIRD PERSON'S POV : Alina screamed her lungs out in panic when she realized that she is not in the penthouse anymore. But it's not just that which made her sweat, she is in a freaking plane which she didn't even know where it was going. But then she saw a door and hurriedly walked towards it. Everyone was startled and jumped out of the place from where they are currently sleeping at, when they heard Alina's scream and looked at the persons who were standing in front of the door in confusion. Grace woke up from her sleep and blushed when she realized that she had been sleeping on her boss's shoulder. "I'm sorry…" Grace mumbled, lowering her head as her cheeks turned bright pink. Omar smiled and said, "No problem." Even though, he was the one who made her sleep on his shoulder. Emily clutched Rudy's shirt hard and pulled him towards her when she heard the scream. Rudy looked at her in surprise but stayed like that, looking at the startled beauty snuggling into him closer. And when
