AUSTIN'S POV

"You should probably check your pocket very well or something. Wait, did those kidnappers take your phone?" The head of maids asked worriedly but I shook my head.

I didn't think they would do such a thing. They looked rich enough to me and they weren't people who would take others phones. All they wanted was my money, they weren't even bothered about my background or anything else.

"I should check where I spent the night maybe it would be there. Get someone to prepare another car for me, I need to change these clothes." I ordered before leaving for my room.

Later, I went back to the inn where I saw my phone on the bed and we went from there to pick up my car before we returned home.

On the way, I placed a call to Adrian, informing him that we needed to meet later in the evening and he agreed without questions.

"Would you like to eat now?" One of the maids asked and I shook my head.

Even though I was trying to pretend like I was alright, I knew I wasn't and food was

    AUSTIN'S POV I jolted up from my seat and looked at him. When I saw him standing up, ready to leave, I was very happy as that was what I wanted him to do but hearing that gunshot, my heart jumped and the first thing I did was drag him back. "Austin! I know you're in there!" I suddenly heard a voice and I frowned. Was that my Austin or was it someone else bearing Austin?"Did you hear that?" Adrian asked and I nodded. "Yeah, but I don't think it's my Austin. How would I know people who use guns?" I asked Adrian coldly. How could he ask me that? It seemed he really wanted me to die!He shook his head "No matter what, you need to hide right now. We can't say if it's you or not." He advised, holding my hand but I threw his hand away and pushed him out of my way. "It can't be me!" I yelled at him. All my life, I had been living quietly with only two aims and that was to avenge my father's death on Adrian and to make my mother happy again. So, how on earth would I have gotten involved

    AUSTIN'S POVI had no idea who was dragging me but I knew I had to follow the person. I found it hard to open my eyes as the fear in my heart was so huge, it was blinding. "Run! Run faster, Austin!" I heard a familiar voice in front of me and my face scrunched up. Adrian? I quickly opened my eyes and that was when I saw that we were in a room and he was already running in a direction "Will you continue waiting there until they break down the door and get to you? Are you really okay with dying here?" He asked me angrily as he glared at me. I was confused, I had no idea what was going on but before I could think about anything more, I heard the door cracking and I knew right then that the door would soon be broken. I quickly composed myself and ran toward Adrian "Where are we going?" I asked him quietly. "While I was here earlier, I tried looking for where I could escape from and that was when I found out about the underground building here. We just need to push away this thing a

    AUSTIN'S POV Adrian pushed me away and held his lips "What was that?" He asked angrily. The look on his face was as if he was ready to give me a hard punch in the face. I smirked and pulled back, truth be told, I had no idea why I kissed him either and I knew I still had to think about the reason later but right then, there was something I needed to do. "I kissed you. Didn't you want it too? Why did you respond to the kiss if you didn't want it?" I asked him and he snorted. "You think I want you?" He asked with a mocking voice and I raised my brows. "Yes, You do," I replied arrogantly. "You wish. The first time we had something, it was you who instigated it. You forced me to your bed, Austin. The second time? You forced me again and you think I want you? Why would I?!" He yelled aggressively. I stared at his face for a few seconds and an evil smile appeared on my face "Let's see you pretend again after this." I provoked as I grabbed his collar and pulled him in. I looked at h

    AUSTIN'S POV I couldn't believe my ears even when he was done saying the rubbish he just said. I looked at him without saying a single word for a while and I started laughing. "Wait, are you planning to become a comedian? What was that?" I asked, still laughing. "I don't know if you've forgotten or not but you and I are not friends and we never will. So, stop this silly prank and close that door before those men get here." I urged him desperately while also making sure he never found out the desperation in me. I was scared, so scared out of my wit but more than that, I needed to make him close the door because I knew the gunmen might have heard him when he shouted earlier and they might be on their way to us already. "What? Comedian? Let's see if you're right or wrong." He said as he took a few steps out of the room. "Hello! Austin Brad is here!!! Austin Brad is here!!!" He started shouting without stopping and my heart nearly stopped. I ran toward him but he held the knives out

I sent you a message that we arrested the gunmen about ten minutes ago, why didn't you come out since then and why were you holding a knife?" One of the policemen asked again and my eyes twitched. "Yes... I thought One of them might be lurking around so I wanted to protect my friend." He replied and the policemen all nodded their heads. "That was brave of you." They said and walked toward me. "Are you alright? Hope you weren't injured?" A man walked over and asked. I looked at all of them as if I was watching a movie. It was hard for me to believe what was going on, it was so hard to believe that I had been tricked by Adrian and he had used my weakness against me just like that!I made my way toward him and stood in front of him "Tell me what I'm thinking right now is not correct.

    ADRIAN'S POV Nothing had been more complicated than what I did today before in my life and I had no idea how that would affect my relationship with Austin from then on. I knew he hated me more after what I did but for forced me to. After he called me and asked us to meet at the Cafe, I told my friends and they were all excited for me, thinking he wanted to ask me out and finally ask me to explain what happened back then so we could clear the air and be together but not only did he not want to hear anything, he even humiliated me and made me feel like trash. When I ran away, I wanted to escape alone but I lost my mind the moment I realized he was in danger and the only thing on my mind was how to get him out which was why I opened the door, dragged him in and closed it back. I led him into the underground building to help him escape only to find out that he already knew I liked him and he was going to continue using that against me, playing me like I was a toy.If I wanted to win h

    ADRIAN'S POV I walked over to a seat and sat down, their eyes following me like they were some paparazzi but I had seen a lot for the day and their looks had nothing on me anymore. "What's surprising me more than anything is those gunmen that came for him. What did he do? I've known him for years now and I know he is not the type to look for trouble. The only enemy he has is me so who could have sent those leeches to him?" I requested an answer even though I knew no one would give me a reply. "You shouldn't be here asking us, if you want to know, you should go to the station to ask them," Kun said and I nodded. "Yeah, I should do that," I replied and stood up. I was about to leave the room when Knight dragged me back and made me sit again. "Tell us, how did he react when you made him do that? Was he very angry?" Knight asked and I let out a deep breath. "You want to know?" I asked and they both nodded. "You really want to know?" "Man! Just tell us!" Kun yelled at me and I chuck

    ADRIAN'S POV"His father's enemy?" Kun asked but I quickly pushed him back because if there was anyone Austin wouldn't want anyone talking about especially when I was around, it would be his father. "Do you know the person that gave you the job?" I asked him and he shook his head. "They've been sending us emails ever since we started working together and the last time I asked to see them, they promised to show up after I've killed Austin Brad. We've been working together for five years but we've never met them once." He explained. That wasn't the answer I wanted to hear but I could see the guy wasn't lying. He was telling the truth I could see the fear in his eyes when he was talking to me. I wondered why he was scared of me but that wasn't the problem at the moment as Austin wasn't saying a word and I knew he wasn't himself at all. Even after his father died years ago, there were still people who wanted to kill him for his father's sin. It was more than ten years already!I looke

    ADRIAN'S POV "No, she was shocked and fainted," Jason replied again and I frowned. Why was he the one answering my questions when he wasn't the one being asked? Tsk!"She's fine already but we wanted her to rest more before going home," Austin seemed to have noticed my suffering as he suddenly butted in and stood up. "Do you want to see her?" I stood up too and walked toward the entrance, "Of course. I have to see the lady who is so special to you that you even wanted to exchange your life for hers," I teased and rolled my eyes. Austin shook his head and chuckled but didn't say a word to reply to me. He looked at Jason, who was still sitting, "Can you watch him? I will be back soon," Jason nodded with a smile, "I will," I let out a deep breath and opened the door. The presence of Jason made me feel uncomfortable. Not only was he handsome, but he also knew how to use guns; he was indeed a worthy opponent!"Ah, John called to ask about you. He sounded very worried. You should give

    ADRIAN'S POV While I was about to hit the ground, a hand suddenly grabbed me and pulled me to my feet. "Don't fall; you will get injured," The familiar, sweet, and comforting voice entered my ears, freezing my thoughts. My eyes shifted, and I looked at the figure who was standing beside me. My lips parted and I took in a deep breath. "I must be in a dream right now," I mumbled inwardly. "Why would you do that? Why would you do something so dangerous without even asking for my help?!" "I might be useless to you but I can still take down a few men. Why on earth would you go and rescue someone without thinking about yourself? Is she that important to you?!" "Look at you, right there. You are wrapped up like a mummy, do you think I can survive this? Do you think I can survive it if anything happens to you?! Why, Austin!? Why?!" "You know what? I would rather die than have you leave me in this world. For your information, if anything should happen to you, I will die with you and when

    ADRIAN'S POV "We've picked the four shoes. Can we just leave now? I need to rest my head," I lamented to Kun, who was still excitedly looking around. I couldn't believe a guy would love shopping so much!"No, Adrian. There's a shoe I saw on a Chinese celebrity, and I feel like it will look very good on you; we need to get that." He proposed and I frowned. "A shoe you saw on a Chinese celebrity? Why should I be the one to wear that?" Kun stopped and cocked his head to the side, a smug smile on his face as he stared at me, "Do you still remember that Chinese drama we watched together a few months ago? BEING A HERO?" A smirk formed on his annoying face. "The young male lead was the one who wore the shoes. Do you want it now?" Hearing that, the corner of my eyes lifted and I gently nodded. "I..." I stopped and shrugged. "Let's look for it then. That guy seems to be an awesome fashionable person," I added with a smile and walked ahead of him. The male lead of the drama caught my atte

    ADRIAN'S POV "You should get four different sets of birthday clothes, okay?" Kun said as he dragged me around in the boutique. He already picked more than ten different trousers and shirts, different sets of clothes that he forced me to test. I was tired but at the same time, I didn't want to return home as his disturbance was helping me deal with my inner turmoil. While he was making things difficult for me by not giving me a moment of peace, I was able to stop thinking about Austin, and for the first time in a while, I was even able to smile. "Do you think this is better or is this better?" Kun asked, he had two different colors of shirt in his hands. I looked at the two and sighed. "I wouldn't know. I'm tired already. Can't we just pick one and leave?" I asked, slapping my forehead as I glared at him. "I'm feeling hungry too," That was the truth; I had lost my appetite before now as I was busy thinking about Austin, but after the tedious shopping, I felt like I needed somethin

  • LOVE IN SHADES   CHAPTER 80

    AUSTIN'S POV Sensing the looming danger in my life and the lives of everyone around me, I decided to take a preventive measure against any sneak attack from any of the enemies. I had installed a tracker on every of my worker's apps and linked it to the companies' computers. Thanks to that, it would be easier to track Cynthia and rescue her. Standing up, I rushed out of the company and made my way back home. Even if I happened to find out what was happening to Cynthia, I still couldn't save her with my bare hands, so I decided to prepare some things from home. I had just driven into my compound when my phone started ringing. It rang for the first time, ignored as I had to park my car but it started ringing for the second time. I brought out my phone from my bag and checked the screen only to see that it was a new number I had never seen before. I felt suspicious; with the things happening, it would be no surprise if it was a call from the kidnappers, and that was more reason for

    AUSTIN'S POV "I'm leaving," Kelvin mumbled with a smile on his face. "Are you sure you are ready to see him?" I asked, staring at him with a worried expression on my face. Kelvin stopped and sighed, "I shouldn't go but I feel like he's tried enough. He's been sending gifts for the past few days, he's been calling, too, and my phone is filled with his text messages. After listening to you that night, I feel like he might be telling the truth but I'm not sure. I want to see for myself and decide if I should forgive him or not," He explained as he carried his bag properly. "If he's telling the truth, will you date him?" I suddenly asked and his face turned red. He walked toward the door and chuckled, "I can't say. Let's just see how it goes," He whispered and my eyes twitched. "Be fast with it though. My heart itch for Adrian already. He's suffering too much," I laughed and shook my head. Hearing that, Kelvin turned around to look at me and chuckled, "Why are you doing this though

    ADRIAN'S POV I stared at the screen, I'd been waiting for over an hour already and there was still no response, even after I knew he already saw it. I sat in bed and ran my fingers through my hair. It was annoying the way he left me on read and refused to reply to me. I picked up my phone again and sent a message, "This is not fair, Austin. This is not right at all. Knight might be my friend but do I need to pay for what he did? At the same time, he's trying and they are even meeting up today. Why do we still need to continue this?" I sent the text to him while feeling down. I had no idea why Austin was taking it this far and it was slowly getting to me. I was finding it hard to concentrate ~I dropped the phone after a few minutes of waiting for his reply and closed my eyes, wondering what I was supposed to do next. Just when I thought nothing else would disrupt my thought, my phone started ringing and I frowned. I could already guess that it was one of my friends and I wished I

    ADRIAN'S POV "You're finally here!" She greeted me excitedly and hugged me. "It's been a while and you've grown even bigger," "I've missed you so much too, Mum," I replied. We soon broke the hug and she led me to a seat. The women around her quickly dispersed as they had other things to do...They were the maids. "You didn't even tell me before you came. What if I wasn't around?" I asked, staring at her pleased face. She pouted and hit my shoulder, "I wasn't planning to come here. I was on a trip with friends and decided to stop here to celebrate your birthday with you. I wasn't around to celebrate last year's birthday with you and I promised to be there this year," She explained with a sweet smile on her face. I smiled in return and my heart warmed. "I understand, Mum," I replied. We talked a while longer before I turned to return to my room. It was already morning but I still felt sleepy. I was very tired and needed some sleep. Getting to my room, I removed my clothes and f

    ADRIAN'S POV I let out a deep breath and turned to look at Knight, who was sitting on the ground. He was a total mess and his tears wouldn't stop flowing either. He looked extremely pitiful, and somehow, I could understand him. The most painful thing about love is when you hurt the person you love the most. I was certain this was the reason Knight felt so miserable. He would have never expected that his action would cause Kelvin so much pain~I crunched down and helped him up, "It's okay, Knight. It's going to be fine," I tried to console him. "You heard what he said. Do you think you are ready to sort this issue? Are you certain you can do it?" I asked after helping him into his room. Knight wiped his tears and nodded his head, "I will do whatever it takes to settle this issue. Aside from the problem I will be putting my family in, the thought of Kelvin suffering because of me is enough to give me the courage to do this. I hate this, Adrian. I hate that he's in so much pain beca
