Davina’s Pov:-“What?” He exclaimed in shock as I told him that I saw a dead body in the woods. I tried to control my anxiety and tell him clearly what I saw back there. I swallowed hard before looking at him, I tried my best to control myself and began telling him everything.What I saw there, the dead body, the wall which had chains and blood, that man who followed me. He kept listening to me without uttering a word till I ended up crying, he pulled me to and wrapped his arms around me.“I’ve never seen something so horrible… ever,” I cried,“I’m scared,” I sobbed while pressing my cheek against his chest, he kept stroking my hair while I cried hard. T
Davina’s Pov:-I stepped inside and saw April sitting beside Olivia, who was staring down at her while leaning her back to the headboard. I looked around the room and noticed that there was no one in the room other than April and Olivia. I was beyond confused, I rushed towards April who was playing with her toy while sitting beside Olivia.“April,” I called while moving towards her, hearing my voice she glanced at me and jumped over to me.I caught her in my arms and hugged her, “Where were you?” She asked while hugging me, I moved back and pushed her hair off her face and stared down at her.“I was outside, Are you okay?” I asked while searching for anything on her,“I’m okay,” She replied,I glanced at Olivia, who was watching me and April with a blank expression on her face. I swallowed the lump formed in my throat and moved my eyes towards April,“What are you doing here? Where&r
“I know you want her, Arthur,” I said out, I couldn’t control my emotions as things that happened earlier began flashing in my mind making me say things that have been in my mind.“...If you want to get back with her…” I said while looking away from him and swallowing the lump that formed in my throat,“You...You can,” I breathed out,“I don’t have any problem…” I said while shutting my eyes to prevent the tears which filled my eyes, I don’t know why I feel so hurt while saying this,“... The contract can be terminated if you want and… I’ll just leave you and…”

Davina’s pov:- “What?” I whispered, “Yes…” She sobbed, “They killed him!” I stared at her in disbelief, tears rushed to my eyes, all my emotions rose at a time and I just couldn’t control myself. Tears rolled down my eyes as the memories of him hurried out in my mind, “I’m so sorry,” his voice and the last words he said to me in the past rushed back to me, “How did this all happen?” I asked controlling myself to cry in front of them, I closed my eyes and controlled myself, I stared at her while she kept crying out. She tried to control herself and answered me, “It… It all started… four years back…” She glanced at me, I could see guilt in her eyes as she avoided eye contact and stared at her lap. “After… After Allen and I got married… we decided to leave this country and move to another place…” She began all the things that happened f
Davina’s Pov:-Did he kill Allen and her child? But Why? Tons of questions arose in my head, and It was clear that no one was safe here. Since we found the place where Allen and Olivia were kept captive, I think the killer would find ways to hide now. With all these thoughts running in my mind, I slipped into slumber. ***I woke up feeling sun rays falling on my face, while blinking to adjust my vision I turned my body and saw April sleeping peacefully. My eyes moved to the person sleeping next to her, he was sleeping with his arm on her. I felt warmth in my chest while staring at these two, I never saw them talking to each other and yet they seemed very comfortable. April was in his arms, her head was resting on his arm and her hair was on his face. They looked like a father and daughter. I watched them for a while before getting up from the bed and doing my morning routines. I got dressed and walked out to see Arthur getting up from the bed while yawning looking like a kid. “G
Davina’s Pov:- I glanced at the people standing in the living and my eyes moved back to Arthur’s mom, this woman had left a wound that wouldn’t heal even after four years. The day she came into my life was the worst day, I still hate to see her face. “Arthur?” His father called while stepping towards Arthur, “What’s happening here?” he asked with worry and confusion evident in his eyes, “Who did this to Olivia?” He asked while glancing at the man behind him, “Where are Allen and her child?” The man behind Andrew spoke, “Both are dead…” Arthur replied and every single one except for me and Arthur gasped in shock, “What?” The woman beside the man spoke earlier exclaimed in shock, “Jesus,” Nadia muttered under her breath while glancing at the floor, “How did all this happen?” The man asked, “Someone kidnapped her and Allen… tortured them and killed Allen a year ago… they planned to torture her for few years but she escaped them… Davina found Olivia unconscious in the woods and
Davina’s Pov:- I quickly slipped into my jeans pockets and walked towards Arthur, I saw him helping Olivia climb up and was busy to notice my absence. I quickly rushed towards them and stood behind Olivia, “Are you okay?” Arthur asked her as she hissed in pain, “Yeah… I’m Okay,” She replied, He helped her take a step ahead. As he remembered me, He quickly turned his head back and glanced at me, I stared at him from down here in complete disappointment. “Here… take my hand,” He said extending his hand to me, I glanced at his open palm and back at him. No thanks, I thought and looked at the ladder, I slowly began climbing it and noticed the hurt in his eyes as he moved his hand back. I reached up and glanced at him and Oliva before walking ahead. We kept walking and I could feel his eyes on me as I walked ahead of them, there was complete silence around us and no one tried to start a conversation. The situation we three are in was unexpected and worse than before, his ex-fiancé lo
Davina’s Pov:-I tried to pause and play it again so that I could hear anything that could help, and suddenly I heard music, it was some kind of a song which was playing in the background. The volume was low as if it was playing in the distance, I tried to hear it more carefully and recognised it as one of Bruno Mars' songs. I don't know the name of it but I could recognize his voice and since Bella loves him, she would play his songs all the time. It was playing and suddenly went off, the rumbling sounds around it were making it extremely difficult to hear what’s happening around. As I played it again for the 10th time, I heard someone answering the call, I couldn’t hear his replies nor his voice was that clear but I heard him using a word. “Surdoué,” he said in an extremely distant voice and his footsteps were getting louder and the recording ended.I rewind and played again to make sure what I heard was correct, I quickly grabbed a note and pencil, I played the recording and not
Arthur’s Pov:-I woke up feeling sun rays falling on my face, I tried to block it by hand. I blinked several times and looked at the sleeping beauty in my arms. Her naked skin was glittering under the sunrays.I watched her waking up and blinking her eyes, “Good morning,” I greeted while smiling down at her,“Good morning,” She greeted and stared at me with a smile on her face,“One sec,” I said and opened a drawer of the nightstand, I pulled the file out and opened it. I pulled the contract papers out and tore them in front of her eyes. “Let’s start fresh,” I said, She smiled at me and quickly I got up from the bed and lifted her, “Arthur,” She gasped,“I’m getting late… we need to shower,” I replied while walking to the bathroom,We brushed our teeth and stripped down our clothes and rushed inside the shower, I pressed her against the glass wall and claimed her lips. I moved my hands to her breasts and squeezed them hard,“Arthur,” She moaned,I moved my mouth to her erupted nipp
I chuckled and made my way to my room; I pushed the door open and walked straight to my bed. I laid her down carefully and pulled the blanket over her, I stared down at her and a smile appeared on my face. It feels good when you see someone waiting for you and being worried about you at home. I turned back and took a step forward; she grabbed my wrist. I got surprised and glanced back at her. She was sitting up while blinking rapidly,“Have you had your dinner?” She asked,“No, did you?” I asked,“No… I was waiting for you,” she said while getting up from the bed,Hearing her words something warm settled inside my chest and suddenly I felt guilty for not calling her and letting her know that I could be late.“I’m sorry… I should have informed you…” She cut me off,“Don’t say sorry… I knew you would have been busy,” she said while staring at my face,I smiled at her, “One sec… I’ll fresh up,”“Okay…” She smiled,***After I freshen up, I walked towards the dining table and saw her s
Davina’s Pov:- It has been 24 hours since we travelled back to New York, Nadia went back to her home and promised me that she would visit us every weekend. I realized that she wasn’t the person I thought she was, she had her reasons for her past behaviour. That night, she came to my room and told me everything. I understood her situation and decided to let it be in the past. As soon as we came back to the mansion, Arthur left for work and I was left alone with April. I showered her and fed her lunch. The whole day I played with her and read stories to her. I kept thinking about him, his words, and his actions in the past few days. What he said to his dad kept rushing to my mind all the time and I kept wondering whether he really loves me or he just said it. What if he really meant it? A question popped inside my head.No, he doesn’t… I assured myself and tried to stop thinking about it.***I was climbing down the stairs with April for dinner, I kept looking at the main door wonder
She let out a deep sigh, “For you!” She replied,“What?” I asked in confusion,“I kept quiet… because I couldn’t lose you…” She said while staring at my face, “When I noticed your father’s growing jealousy over Jordan… I tried to help him and make him understand that we should be happy with what we have instead of being jealous of someone but he didn’t listen to me…” she said with a sad face,“I was worried about him… What if he does something to Jordan out of jealousy? These kinds of questions made me worry about him all the time… and when I heard him talking to Samuel… happily telling him that Jordan is dead… I was terrified… I was shocked to see him turn into a monster… he was no longer the man I loved… I confronted him that what he did he wrong and I will inform this to police but he threatened me”“He said that he will kill you and me without thinking twice if I go to the police… and he would marry any woman and have an heir… he was so selfish and… I got scared… scared for your l
Davina’s Pov:- We were walking towards the main door, climbing the stairs. Cops arrested both Samuel and Andrew for what they did. Arthur told me that they couldn’t get out of jail for the rest of their life, he made sure of it. After a long day, we are back to our mansion. I never thought that a night would be this terrifying. I could not just get my head out from the fact of Andrew killing innocent people and no one ever suspected him. He killed 4 people, Olivia’s mom, dad, grandfather, and Allen. I was surprised that Nadia knew what Andrew was doing and was upset about it but couldn’t do anything. He must have threatened her not to open her mouth, it can explain why she kept quiet. Above this, I could see how much she loves Arthur. Even though he hated her for what she did, she never stopped loving him. Now that’s called mother’s love, even though we do things that hurt them badly they will never hate us. Arthur is lucky to have a mother like her, who chose her child instead of
Davina’s Pov:-“I killed them because I wanted to make a future for you…” he said while staring at Arthur,“No… you did that for yourself… your jealousy blinded you and made you kill him and his entire family…” Arthur yelled,“Where was Olivia when this accident happened?” I asked,“She was with us… Arthur wanted her to a sleepover and they left her with us,” Nadia replied,“If you wanted to kill Jordan and his entire family… then why did you leave Oliva behind?” I asked, diverting the topic so that Arthur could calm down,“Because if I kill Oliva… we would lose billions of dollars and millions worth of properties….” He replied,“What?” I exclaimed in shock,“After Emmanuel’s death… The lawyer explained his will… which said that everything he earned and Jordan earned would get to Olivia… before all that could happen, I made sure no one knows about this will while I took over all the companies and made them as ours… changed the names and completely turned them as ours,” Andrew said,“N
Davina’s Pov:- We were now in the office where they held Samuel, earlier. They moved Samuel behind the bars with solid charges and proof. Last night after whatever happened, Arthur didn’t leave my side for even a second, it was hard for all of us to sleep. What shocked me was, Arthur’s mom saved me from Andrew. She never liked me and always tried to insult me, I never expected that she would one day save me from her own husband. It was surprising not only for me but also for Arthur. I was thankful for Nadia, before going back to my room I thanked her and she just smiled at me. The whole night Arthur was with me and April, we didn’t speak to each other even though we slept beside each other. What he said to his dad in pure rage kept flashing in front of my eyes and I couldn’t stop myself from wondering why he said that? Was It True? Does he love me for real?When I glance at him, those words ring in my ear and a blush appears on my face automatically.“Because I love her,” he said w
Arthur’s Pov:- What the hell is happening here? Why is dad trying to kill her? Jesus Christ!“Arthur,” Davina called with tears running down her eyes, “Dad, What are you doing?” I yelled in helplessness, “I should have done this in the first place…” he gritted his teeth in pure anger, he looked like an animal. He was no longer the man I knew, I loved my whole life. He had this look on his face that wanted blood, it screamed who he had been all this time. He wrapped his arm around Davina’s neck and was tightening his hand as I took a step closer to him, Davina was struggling to breathe and I couldn’t see it. I quickly pulled the gun out and pointed it at him, “Leave her, dad!” I warned, Hearing my warning he let out a chuckle, “You! You’ll kill me?” he laughed, “For this bitch,” he said while tightening his hold around her neck. “Dad, Leave her…” I ordered, “You know how good I’m at firing,” I said, “Yeah… I know how good you are… That’s why I’m so proud of you my son,” he s
Arthur’s pov:- I stared at him in shock, That person was one of us? Who might it be? I thought while staring at him in surprise. “Who is it?” I asked, “I can not tell you that,” he said while turning his head away from me. “Why?” I yelled, “If you know who did that why can’t you tell me,” I screamed, “I can’t…” he shouted, “If I tell you…. the next second my wife would be dead and there wouldn’t be any proof left to find him,” he revealed, “What!” I replied in shock, “What do you mean?” I asked, “My wife would be dead… if I tell who that person is!” He replied,I stared at him in confusion, He let out a sigh and lowered his head, “You don’t know anything about this… Arthur… this isn’t a normal matter as you think…this is something dangerous and many lives are involved in this,” he said, “Do you think it is safe for Davina to keep that Sd card with her and getting involved in this?” He was the one who stole it? I stared at him, not knowing what to say. “Yes, I stole it fr
