***ESTHER***I couldn’t believe my ears when I hear Caden’s name. These people! How could they say Caden’s name when they don’t know anything about him and me?Or is it true that they know, about it? But that’s not possible. That thing couldn’t happen.“Why are you talking about Caden over here? I ask them.All of them laugh like they know something.“Isn’t she silly? She is pretending as if nothing happened. Isn’t that quite a show? You want us to believe that you don’t know anything when the pictures of you and Caden are posted everywhere on the walls of the school bulletin? Aren’t you corny? We have been trying to hit on him for a long time. How can you just go and throw yourself on him?” one of the girls who is pale and slim with perfect based makeup shouts at me the same questions treating me just like a criminal.Yes, it’s true that I have been together with Caden but I am not pretending anything right now. I am as shocked as they are right now. How the hell did they know about
***ESTHER***None of the students could look into my eyes now. They are all trying to do whatever they want to do except the one who is lean and thin.She stands in front of me and keeps on displaying her well-painted nails in front of me."So, you seem good in academics. Maybe too good. But that doesn't make you deserving of Caden. I have been eyeing him since the day I have seen him at the Fresher's party. So, you cannot just take him away from me. I won't give up in any case. Do you understand?" she spins around dramatically and moves away from it.Well! I have to meet another version of Natalie now. There might be even more. I guess they should meet each other instead of meeting me. They would have some unworthy fights with each other.I just care less about her and move out of the class hurriedly. I need to find him. I need to find Caden right now.I call his phone but the same again. He isn't picking up. I don't know what's wrong with him.Why the hell isn't he picking up the ph
***ESTHER***I keep on looking at his face with an expectation that he would tell me something about himself and Cohen. What happened between them and how did it go? But, I have been waiting for his words to be expressed properly since last half an hour but he isn’t telling me anything.“Caden! Will you please tell me what is going on?” I ask him one more time and this time I really want to hear what he has to tell.He exhales a long breath and puts his both hand on the table and bows down his head and rest it on the table like he is really frustrated to tell me. I am not sure what it is but with his constant behaviour, it’s obviously bad one. But I want to hear it how much bad it is?“Caden!” I stress his name enforcing him to tell everything but god damn! He is hardly speaking anything.“Okay! I will tell you everything. This morning when I went to meet my brother, he was over there. I stood in front of his door for a long time but nobody opened the door. So, I started guessing all
***ESTHER***He is grabbing my hands so tightly right now. I don’t know but there is strange fear on his face which is almost impossible for me to comprehend. I don’t know why are we running like this? I want to ask him but I think it’s not right time to ask him question to him right now. So, we just run.He pulls me inside a narrow alley in between two walls and we both hide between them. He is a tall guy with broad shoulders. He is hiding me behind his gigantic body.“Shhh…,” he shushes me while pointing his index finger on his lips. His eyes clearly tells me that I shouldn’t produce any sounds at all. I obey his silent order. We stay like that for a while, without any chats, without single voice of ours.This has never happened till now. The thing that we are together and loving each other and not talking with each other. Only the swift sound of floating air and our breaths are audible right now.“Let’s go,” I finally hear another word from his mouth but that word is also just a co
Chapter 67***ESTHER***Few years ago"Esther! Esther!" My mother shouted with the loud voice. Since that accident, our relationship has never been the same. She used to be the favourite and most adorable lady of mine but it's different now. Everything is different.A single accident changed everything around me, the people around me, the situation around me and even changed the perspective of a person who is left behind with me and it hurt more when it's your own mother.After being paralyzed for almost two months, I realized a lot of things through hospital stay. It might sound ridiculous but I knew my mother better than ever when I was bedridden and couldn't move at all.My mother never knew and I hope she never know the thing that she told me in hospital almost more than five times.Every time she visited, she used to tell me those things or I could simply put it as, she used to curse me.It was kind of funny but that was what I have heard at that time and I could never be mistake
***ESTHER***"You," his voice softens as he says that. I don't understand his sudden change of expression on his face. "Leave him, please. Let him go," I say as I look at Caden. He is stepping on his stomach and I can't help but cry when I see his step in Caden's body. Seeing him like that makes me infuriated. So, I push him away in rage and hold Caden's body. "Caden! Look at me!" I tap on his face and try waking him up. He faintly looks at my face time and again and closes his eyes. "No! No! No! Caden, you can't do that. Please wake up," I say but he closes his eyes again. How much strong is this man that Caden is so much weak right now? "Let's go," I hear the leader's voice. I look at his face all of a sudden. Did he say to go. I look at his face which is still watching me without a pause. I couldn't stop but look at his face with amazement for a while but the words he says after that shocks me more. "Call the ambulance for them and if someone asks what happened, tell them t
Chapter 69***ESTHER***My eyes fall on the floor as I get the huge slap in the middle of the hospital. For some reason, I feel ashamed and couldn't lift my eyes to look at the people. This has happened once before and it was my mother who it before. I was embarrassed in same way at that time.With eyes filled with more tears, I look up to him. I don't get it. I don't get why is he slapping me in the middle of the hospital.Is he angry that I risked his baby at this time?Yeah! That maybe the reason but I had to save Caden. How can I let him die in those evil and ruthless hands?Or maybe he doesn't even know about it and he is here for Caden. I don't know what might be the reason. So, I don't say anything in particular or try to explain anything until I confirm the reason behind this slap."You silly girl! How could you risk my baby's life? Do you even know what does this baby mean to us? Girls like you are nothing but just some gold diggers. Do you think I don't know about you?" he gr
***ESTHER***“Don’t you dare come near my son. If you don’t take my warning seriously, then I might have to take other measures to sweep you away from him,” he says. I have never heard him call Caden his son. To be honest, I am glad to hear him call the son but I cannot be glad alone because of that. How can I forget that he is telling me to get away from Caden which is almost impossible to me. Plus, Caden is in really serious condition right now that I cannot leave him alone in this phase. Yes, he is alone right now. I know his dad. I also know that there might be selfish reasons for him to call Cadan his son right now. He had always been ashamed of him and now he is calling him his son and without any hesitation means something is really off. “I’m sorry but cannot do that. I cannot leave Caden alone. At least not with you. Also, you cannot just sweep me away like this. I have your child and it’s growing inside me. You cannot just let me go just like that. You have to risk your c
Final chapter***CADEN***One has to pay for the sins that they committed all their life. But, I don't know what sin I had committed and I don't know what sins my mom and Esther had committed that we had to suffer a lot.I don't think I had done a great sin ever in our life. So, the truth is we all suffered from the sun that someone else has committed. We all suffered because of the sin, Cameron Payne has committed.I rush out of the office as soon as I hear that.He deserved that. After killing life of so many people he deserves to die like that."Where is he rushed to?" I ask as I run to the car."To the City Centre Hospital," he says. He drives the car for the destination.It's been a year that I have been planning for this day but seeing that without even lifting my pinky finger something happened to him makes me kind of mad.How? Why?There is not even a little bit of remorse on my face on his accident but somewhere in my heart I become restless as my heart beats quick and fast
Chapter 114 ***CADEN***A year later"Boss! We have a meeting scheduled with Cameron Payne," my assistant knocks on my door.I look at him and nod my head."I'll be there," I say as I stand up from my seat.I have waited for this day for so long. It's been a year. A complete one year, two days and fourteen hours that she has been away from me.I don't know where she is. What is she doing and what happened to her?I remember that night when me and Carlos reached on the research center. At that time, we realized that there is no entrance to that center until and unless Cameron Payne lets us to enter inside.And there was no way that he would let us enter inside that door. We waited for almost three days without food, without water just like a zombie but there was no trace that they were going to open that door for us.On the third day, I became unconscious and that was what brought me to the hospital.I was rushed to the hospital and was hospitalised for two days. I don't know when did
Chapter 113 ***ESTHER***"My baby was prematurely delivered and without even my consent. I was just a surrogate mother," I say and Cavendish looks at me with a shocking eyes."What? In how many months and why?" he asks me as he gulps the fire roasted meat into his mouth. Not a big piece but a small piece."Six and half months maybe. I'm afraid if the child is even alive," I look at the fire with my pensive eyes. I pray that the baby is alright and he make it to the world but even after I pray a lot I cannot think that the baby have so much chance of not making it to this world. The thought of it makes me scared but I cannot stop thinking about it.I know it's a negative thought but even after I try so hard not to think about it, it's what my mind is filled with it."Then, I'm sure the child didn't make it," he adds in it and though I know that might have happened being assured by him torments my heart to the hell.I don't say any word but just she'd tears."I promised myself that I w
Chapter 112 ***ESTHER***It's cold. It's freaking cold. My whole body feels like I am somewhere in the middle of the sea. What's this sound?Is it the sound of moving waves? That can't be. Or is it? Is it really what I am thinking of cause it feels absolutely something like that?I gently open my eyes. As soon as I open my eyes, the bright beam of sunlight almost blinds my eye.What's going on? My hands feel numb but I manage to use them. I raise them up closer to me. It's wet.I am right.I am in the water. I quickly get up from where I am lying. I look at my lower portion of the body. It's alright but I am still too weak to walk.They had performed surgeries on me. I still have my wounds in my body?I get up and sit upright in the sandy shore. I am here. I don't know where am I? He threw me over here. That damn bastard threw me over here.I look around the place. There is nothing that I can see like a civilization or human kind. This is ... Some lonely island that I have never hear
Chapter 111 ***ESTHER***I slowly open my eyes and see the world of machines, doctors and medicines all around me. There are six of them in the room. Where am I? In surgery room?I want to move my hands to see my stomach. I want to check if the baby is alright. But my hands are tied. There is no way I can reach my stomach this way.I don't feel anything over there. I guess they have ...they have already ...I cannot control myself. I don't have any energy to do that and I cannot move my lower parts of body. What did they do?I cry loud but my voice creaks. My voice doesn't come as it should have come. My tears keep on flowing from the corner of my eyes rapidly. I can feel my tears wetting my hair.But the fact that I am alive makes me happy. It gives me the courage to embrace myself one more time. And this is not decreasing my hope. Not even a little bit.I am bound to do that. I am bound to take revenge and and I will do that in any way. I am not giving up whatever they break of me.
Chapter 110 ***CADEN***I rush angrily to my dad's home. How dare he? How dare he do that to Esther? I had warned him. I had warned him numerous times but even after all of those warnings, he keeps on doing the things that always gets on my nerve.I travelled six hours long taxi ride just to see the man whom I hate so much. God damn! This man!"Cameron Payne!" I shout with a loud voice. I don't know if he is in the house. But I'm sure I'm going to kill him if I find him here.I look at his room but he isn't there. The head servant in his house comes out and informs that he isn't in the house. He set off for somewhere yesterday and hasn't returned back since then."Where? Where did he go?" I shout at him."We don't know young master," he says.I shuffle my hair in frustration and walk downstairs. I look around his house but I don't find anyone in there. Where does he keep his wife? Where does she live?I stop my feet as I turn back and ask the head servant," Where is his wife?" I ask.
Chapter 109***ESTHER***This smell! This smell is so much bad. It's the smell of tyre burning. I hate this smell. And this clouds of smoke, I can't see anything in front of me. Where am I? Where in the hell am I?I try to open my eyes but I don't get to. It's stinging like hell. What happened? What in the hell happened?I am tied on the chair. My hands are tied behind and my legs are tied too. I can feel my wedding dress hugging my body but I am not able to see anything.There isn't a single sound around here and luckily my mouth isn't taped or closed with some clothes.But God damn! I'm kidnapped. I'm kidnapped for god's sake.I try to open up the rope that has tied me from behind. I still cannot open my eyes."Caden! Caden!" I shout his name. Slowly, I remember what happened before.I was hit by someone in my head, someone from behind. I saw him. I saw that fucking bastard Cameron over there.How did he get over there? We even switched off our phones not to let him know where we we
Chapter 108***CADEN***Her smile is what I love to see the most in the whole world. We both don't know what is laid in front of our future but we really don't want to give up in any part of this journey. I know there would only hurdles in front of us but I don't want to give up on her. I want to be part of her, in her sorrows and in her happy times together.What could make me more elated than being her husband? I am more than just excited to be her husband.She wants to file a case against Cameron Payne and I have a full support in that. I hate to tell him my dad. I have always hated to but now I really don't want to get reminded that he is my dad. He is dead for me.He has made so many people suffer and cry that it's shameful to introduce him as my father. I have lost my mother because of his selfish motive and she lost her three members of her family. It's hard. It's not only the number of members but it's a emotion, the soul that he has killed.I can't tell how much I hate him.
Chapter 107***ESTHER***"For what?" she asks. I see her eyes looking at me with curiosity and innocence. But it's a first time that she has looked at me like that. She hasn't done that since I have come over here. She has been ignoring me since I came over here like I never existed in her world."For taking you wrong. For not being able to sit with you and communicate with you properly," I say."You don't have to do that. You don't need to communicate with me. I don't feel like talking with you after all," she says.That's hurts a little but I knew that from the very start."I know but can we talk? Who knows we might have something that's common," I say.She looks at me with those weird eyes and then turns back."We don't have anything in common except Caden, I guess," she says."Oh! Yeah! We both do have him as common," I follow her trying to catch with her footsteps."Why do you like him so much?" I ask. She looks at me and then returns back to walking."I don't know. Maybe because
