"No, you don’t. I deadpanned what I said.

"I smile at people who are close to my heart.

" I melted hearing this, as this is the first time, he has said something like this.

Ivan is a man of few words. Over his phone, he also notices he is mostly in hmmm. But his actions speak louder than his words, which I don’t know about others but have noticed.

He means no harm to anyone; it’s just that his persona is so rigid that he can’t do anything about it, I guess.

I again lost myself looking at his feathers. He is boiling, and I don’t know why he doesn’t get into any relationships. I am sure he can get any girl on his knees.

"Is there something on my face, or is today the best day of life as Ms. Rose is gracing her undivided attention to me today?" He smirks when he notices me gawking at him.

Well, I was lost in my thoughts, or else I had no interest in him. But again, it was embarrassing when he caught me red-handed.

"Hmmm, I was looking outside the window." I made a lame excuse.

    SARAH'S POV Mommy Bella ran to me the moment her eyes landed on me, and I hugged her tightly like a bundle of joy.Bella is surely my peace of mind, but my foggy thoughts because of old memories aren’t giving me any peace of mind.I somehow know what will give me that peace, though it’s fictitious. Still, it has some beautiful memories and alluring feelings I felt long ago. And whenever I see that, somehow my restless heart gets easier.Reaching back to the beach, I noticed the kids went back to their playing, and Simi and Parminder were having their me-time a little farther away from us. And that view added more fuel to my dismay.I averted my eyes to the other side, but someone was keeping close eyes on my move and caught me red-handed by saying, You know you can also have the same happiness for yourself, Sarah?" I looked to my right side after hearing this, and Ivan was looking at me with some unfamiliar emotion in his eyes, which did not go unnoticed by what he meant."Rose, my na

His words hit me hard this time.My sudden anger rose to hear him, and I gritted my teeth.His honest remark somehow touched my heart. I know for a fact that I don’t want to let those memories fade away. Not because I am loving this pain, but because those are the only best memories I had in my life before Bella entered.

    "Ms. Martha, I heard you are not keeping the proper paperwork regarding the kids we have under our shelter." This statement hurt her pride, and she was taken aback at hearing it. Till now, no one has accused her of anything, and today some unknown person is coming and blaming her for something she has not done. "Are you trying to accuse me of something, Sir? And if yes, then would you mind enlightening me a little?" She asked politely. Ms. Martha is a kind lady. Even though she knows you are insulting her, she will never lose her patience and cool down that easily. "I am afraid I am Ms. Martha." He said it with the same authority, and somehow Ms. Martha noticed he had come up with some sort of proof; hence, he was looking so confident about it. She instantly thought about what it could be, but her memory recalled nothing about which she needed to be concerned. "Then I would like to know, sir, what it is." She said this while folding her hands on the table. "I have gone through a

    SARAH’S POV "I am afraid that would be possible." I stiffen hearing the voice.Stiff? No, I froze like ice.Am I hallucinating again? I thought something was forcing me to open my eyes to check my surroundings because suddenly my body felt some different type of sensation, and somehow this feeling is not new.I have felt this way before.But when?I was flattered, opened my eyes, and gave a glance at my sound, but my eyes stuck on the tall figure.Wearing a navy blue three-piece full suit and shining polish shoes, an expensive watch, and black spectacles.A figure used to make my life beautiful.The same figure was the reason for my smile and my happiness.He was my solace.And look at the fortune I have. The same figure is the reason for my broken self.The tears I just cleaned again appear and make their way out of my eyes.My eyes stuck to his eyes.

    Does he want me to be his slave? He could use the word nanny or maybe caretaker, but no. He said, Slave. The one who used to claim he loved me wants me to be his slave. ‘Look at the irony.’ I started laughing like a man when I heard him. My stomach started hurting and tears started flowing, but I did not stop laughing. After some time, I recovered, took a deep breath, and looked at him. He was looking at me with no emotion on his face. No love, no hate, no anger, no arrogance He was standing like a statue. I looked at him with a painful smile. If this man thinks taking away my daughter is that easy, then he is wrong. He does not know how much I love her or to what extent I can go for her. I shake my head with a smile. "This is a tiny price, if you ask me, Mr. Hudson. I will do anything for her. If it's a slave, then I will be a slave." I said, looking into his eyes to get the obvious message of how much I love her. "Very well then. We have to sign a small contract, and she is

    The look on their faces was a clear sign that I have to explain more than I like, and I have no escape now, and I know that fact. "Bella darling, we are going somewhere; can you pack your bag, please?" I said this while holding her face in my palms. ‘Where Mommy?’ She asked excitedly, and I felt bad thinking, What if her excitement will die at Sean’s place? What if she does not like the place? Gulping my fear, I forced my lip to stretch into a smile. "That’s a surprise for you. So hurry up." I spoke. "Ok, mommy. Let’s go, Pam." She said this while walking towards her room holding Pam’s hand, and that view broke my heart. Now how will I tell her it’s just us going, not Pam? Till now, Bella has been used to having Pam around her, and now she will be all alone at Sean’s place. It is already so much for me to digest, and explaining everything to everyone is taking a toll on me. ‘Gosh, how will I do this?’ I thought about looking everywhere, then at these people who are waiting for m

    Bella has grown up seeing Pam always around, and I don’t remember even a single time she has not been there with us. So, I know it won’t be easy for both girls to stay apart; it will be difficult for them to understand the situation either. "But soon Pam can visit us," I said to lighten their mood a little. "But I want her to come with us, mommy." She said this while pouting her cute little lips. "Not today, darling, but I promise I will call her there soon," I said while walking out to avoid her. "Ok, mommy." I heard her whisper, and I know she was beyond sad. I saw a line of cars standing at my door, and that kind of gave me nostalgia. Gulping my waving emotion, I walk towards the cars, as I do not know in which car. I have to sit, but Nora opens the door, and that was a clear sign I have to sit there. Someone ran towards me and asked for the bag I had in my hand, and I gave it to him as it wasn’t light either. I noticed there was already a booster seat attached in the car f

    SARAH POV I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t realize I was still standing on the porch. "Mam." I looked at the side from which I got the voice and saw that Nora was looking at me with some concern. "Are you alright?" He asked again. I again looked around and looked back at him and nodded in agreement, and then I felt a little wetness in my eyes, but ignoring his look, I started walking inside the house. Cleaning my tears, I again walk on a known path, and with time, I can see nothing has changed here. Things are as they are. Same beautiful, neat, and clean. I saw a few houses; help was doing their work and bowed to me, noticing my presence, and I replied the same politely with a small smile. I looked around to catch a glimpse of Sean, but I did not find him at all. ‘What should I do? Should I go to his room? As it was clear in the contract, I have to stay with him, or should I look for Bella’s room first? ‘But again, where is her room?’ I was again lost in my thoughts

    Finally, we went to the room when I noticed the babies were tired and wanted to sleep.After putting the babies on their cots in Bella’s room, we finally went back to the living room, where everyone was seated.Sean takes my hand and takes his seat. Sometimes I do feel we are doing too much PDA, but well, who cares?Sir, someone is here to see Mam." House help comes and informs Sean.Are you expecting someone? He asked, looking at me, and I shook my head no.I looked at the door when a smile broke on my lips as I looked at the politest person I know.Well, politeness is only for me, or else I know he is completely different outside because the work he handles isn't something a polite person can handle."Mr .Luca, how are you?" I got up from my seat and hugged him lovingly, and he did the same.He is a middle-aged man and my manager. I work as a hacker for him only. We work only for the government."Very well How have you been, and how are the little angels doing?" He asked with a smal

    My mind went numb, and I let it play with this man with my lips as per his liking. He sucked my upper lips and then nibbled my lower lips, and in no time, he entered my mouth while his lips started sucking my tongue. This feeling was very overwhelming for me. He left my lips and winced loudly, and I took a deep breath and took a few more moments to understand what was happening. I look up, push back my body, sit back straight, and look at him while tilting my head. He was taking a few deep breaths while his face had a painful expression. I followed his other hand and noticed he was holding his heart. Guilt rushed back, as did panic, thinking I had hurt him again. "I am sorry." I don’t know what else to say, and I just touched his hand, which was touching her heart. "It wasn’t your fault, baby." He spoke with great difficulty, and I know I have hurt him badly. Tears pool back while I choose to stay mum. He took a few more breaths with closed eyes, and after some time, he opened

    The whole day has passed while hearing the chit-chat of Sam, Nathan, and Bella. Erick visits now and then, but I have not used any words since I don't know when.The next day I woke up and tried to walk, and thankfully I could walk a little. Though stitching was painful, I could walk at least, and that was enough for me.Now nothing can stop me from seeing Sean, and I did the same.I got to know Eric left last night as he has to attend some meetings today, but Nathan and Sam stayed back with me, and finally, after my pasturing, they agreed to take me to the hospital.It felt like it was taking ages for us to be there, but again, I couldn't do anything too unwanted, so I waited.When we arrived, I noticed a helicopter landing on the building's terrace and a few guards waiting for us with wheelchairs.Well, I won't lie; I am not tired from traveling, and this wheelchair will surely Help. I sat on it without making any fuss about it, and one of the guards pushed it towards the lift.We go

    "I want to see him." I spoke, looking at Nathan. I know only he can understand what I am feeling right now. "He is not here. He needed the best medical treatment as soon as possible, and most of the equipment here was busy as your health wasn’t in great condition, so we shifted him back to New York," He replied. "So, when can I see him?" I asked. As soon as you feel better" He replied. "I am fine. Let's go." I try to get up, but again, a sharp pain shoots up in my lower abdomen. "Sarah, what are you doing?" Everyone gasped, and I heard the stern voice of Alvera. She gently pushed me back. "You just had a C-section, and your stitches are still fresh. You can’t jump around as per your liking." She scolded me, and I looked at her surprisingly She helped me arrange my quilt. And I again looked at Nathan with hopeful eyes, who had a stern expression on his face and nothing else. And now he is not interested in helping me anyway. Tears pool in my eyes, and I look down helplessly. "N

    When I open my eyes, a strong light hits them, and I close them and again open them slowly to get gadgets with light.I roam my eyes.The place looked familiar, but then it hit me.I am back at the clinic.All the memories hit me hard.I touch my flat belly.My babies? Where are my babies?Panicked, I looked around but found no one.Where is everyone? Where are my kids?I jerk myself up, and a sharp pain shoots through my abdominal area and hand. I looked down; saline was attached to the back of my palm, and something was bothering me on my face.I touch it with my other hand and notice it’s an oxygen mask.I tried to take it out, but I felt too weak. I finally took it off and took a large amount of air into my lungs.I look up, hearing a voice. Mam, please don’t sit like this. You might break your stitches."She pushed me back to my old position, and ignoring her, I spoke, "Where is Sean? And where are my babies?" I asked worryingly.Ma'am, your babies are fine. Look there."

    Once Sarah was out, I looked back at them, who were nothing but crying their hearts out.I was somehow feeling bad, but again, what else do you expect? Karma's a bitch. What goes around comes around."Don’t touch her, you bastard. You killed my love." Mr .Williams pushed Ivan, who was still shocked after looking at her mother's dead body."I did not kill her," Ivan stuttered, looking at her mother."You did. You shot my love." Mr .William started crying, holding his wife.And I wondered how this man did not love anyone apart from this woman his whole life. He gave so much pain to everyone for this woman and looked at her today as she left him, leaving him all alone."Baby, wake up. Please wake up. Don’t leave me like this, baby." His voice was reaching my ears, but I wasn't feeling sympathy for this man.Not even a bit."I did not shoot her," Ivan Mummer said, looking at his gun.Mr .Williams was far away from hearing anything. He was weeping like a child.He looked at us and again at

    I can see how hurt she is when her friend backstabs her. And it’s not the first time she's gone through this pain. I am sure she must have felt the same pain when she misunderstood Sam."Never mind. If you don’t love me right now, you'll learn to love me after I kill Sean." He looked at me, giving me a deadly glare, which I ignored."Kill me all you want, but leave her right now." I felt agitated by now.I have no idea where the fuck Eric is.Gladly, but before I want to kill your seeds," He smirked, and I got pale hearing this."Didn't I tell you, baby? You will only carry my babies? Hmm?" He was looking scary somehow, and Sarah was getting frightened by his look.He has some major mental issues.I have to think of something to buy some time, but this man is difficult to trick.Worry is an understanding of what I am feeling now.I looked at Sarah, who had the same horrible expression as me. I was worried for her safety, and she was worried about mine.I again nodded to her to stay c

    But before we do or say anything, we hear Ivan say, "Not so easily."Ivan jumped next to Sarah and pointed a gun at her head.Sarah’s painful cry reached my eardrums. Before I or Nora could do anything, he had taken Sarah hostage.I looked at Sarah, who looked scared, and her hands were on her belly. I can see she is worried about the babies."Ivan, what are you doing? Leave me," Sarah called out painfully while struggling to get out of his grip, but I can see that the man was too strong.Madness was clear in his eyes, and he was raging.I looked at Nora, and he asked my permission to do something, but I shook my head and denied it. I can't take any risks right now. Sarah is completely broken emotionally and runs out of energy physically.I need to handle this very carefully."Ivan, leave her." I spoke.Huh ,and why do I listen to you, hmm?" He asked venomously."I will give you whatever you want. Just leave her, please." My voice is calm and composed, but the threat wasn’t something y

    Once I reached the outhouse, a few voices reached my ears, and one of them was Sarah's. I felt relieved knowing she was fine. "From now on, you only have me. Understand, baby girl?" Someone spokes, I know this is for Sarah, and someone else calling her baby apart from me boiled my blood. "No, she did not understand. But I will make her understand. Don't worry." I spoke, reaching closer to her. Her back was facing me, but I could see she was fine. Her father stiffened, looking at me, and so did his wife. The man who was close to my wife took a step back, looking at me. Oh and how I like to know what effect I have on them. Good, they aren’t expecting me here. It's good to know too. "So, hello to you all" I spoke while looking at them. I touched Sarah's shoulders while I bent down a little to the crook of her neck. My breath blew on her neck. She felt a little stiff, but instantly she felt relaxed. I know she knows my touch. "Baby, are you alright?" I spoke lovingly. She brok
