Mishka was sobbing quietly. Her eyes were dancing between Christian and the road, her mind clouded with all the old memories and her urge increased to meet the person waiting for her back in India. “Are we going to die?” Mishka asked in a choked voice. “No, I won’t you die. Just trust me, and jump out of the car once I ask you!” Christian answered. “WHAT! And you?” Mishka widened her eyes. “I’ll jump after you,” Christian said. Mishka shook her head. “No, you jump first!” Christian snapped in her direction. “Now, are we going to argue over this? Just do as I say, Mishka!” He shrieked at her while removing his seat belt, but she was in denial. “Are you crazy? I can’t leave you alone. You jump first, I’ll follow you. I promise!” Mishka stated firmly, her voice gradually lowered as she said the last part, but Christian didn’t answer. He was focusing on the front road and the back road through the side mirror. He wanted the highway to be perfectly empty before they jump. “Mishka, tr
Danny and the cops reached the spot at the same time. Danny rushes towards Christian and finds him in a half-conscious state. “Chris, are you alright?” Danny held Christian’s limp body in his arms while the cops sealed the crime scene. “M-Mishka, she is in the c-car. Go check her, don’t leave h-her a-alone!” Christian responded with much difficulty, and Danny, leaving Christian on the road, rushed to the car. The emergency help took her body out of the car and Danny quickly holds her in his arms. “Thanks to the airbags, she’s safe! Just a few scratches and nothing major.” The emergency help said while Danny removed the tiny pieces of glasses from her face and hair, sighing in relief. He looked at Christian at a fair distance, who was looking back at them in his drowsy state. “She is alive!” Danny shouted. *** Luke, Jennifer, Rose, and Rony practically ran inside the hospital and stopped outside the emergency. “Danny, where is Christian?” Luke asked in a panic. “He’s fine. Doctors
Jake barged into his father’s study. “Did you try to kill them?” He shouted at the top of his lungs, and Dan looked at him with a poker face. He opened his mouth to speak, but Jake interrupted. “Oh sure, you try to kill them. It’s clearly visible on your damn face!” He spat and threw the chair on the nearest wall. Dan watched his actions. “Why do you care?” He knitted his eyebrows. “Because I love her! And because of your bloody scheming, Christian barred me from meeting her.” Jake screamed and Dan widened his eyes. “You’re in love with Christian’s wife? Now, this is getting interesting.” Dan smirked evilly and Jake turned quiet. “Is this the reason you refused to marry Jessica?” “It’s none of your business!” Jake snapped at him. “It is my damn business, you bloody moron. I’m doing all of this for you.” Dan thundered, throwing a glass vase at him, but luckily Jake dodged the attack, and the vase shattered on the floor. “I love Mishka. Deal with it!” Jake boldly stated, his eyes
Mishka touched Christian’s forehead with the back of her hand. “Are you alright? We can head back to the hospital if you want?” She said in a concerned tone, and Christian removed her hand from his forehead with a glare. “I’m perfectly fine. Why?” Christian asked and Mishka sneered. “Then who the fuck goes on a honeymoon right after surviving a deadly accident!” Mishka shrieked. “Christian Knight and his wife!” Christian smirked, and Mishka blazed in anger. “How much I wish to wipe that smirk off your lips!” She said tenaciously and then she heard the ringtone of her phone. “My phone…. My phone is ringing….. where is it?” Mishka looked at Christian and asked, but he just shrugged ignoring her. “I can hear the faint ringtone of my phone. Where is it, Christian?” Mishka gritted her teeth and when he didn’t answer, she lunged over him, “Where is it?... in your trouser? Give me.” She asked. Her hands were roaming everywhere on his lower body, and she accidentally touched his crotch a
Christian exactly knew the purpose of Lia’s call, but he was more interested to know her choice of words, and how she was going to present her request to him, and with a shark-like Cheshire grin on his face, Christian picked up the call. “Hey!” “Hey! How are you doing? I heard about your accident. Are you alright?” Lia pretended to be concerned about him. “Yeah, you’re calling four days later to check on me. So I guess I’m alive,” He answered in quite a rude tone, and Lia sensed it. She wanted to cut the call right away, but her eyes fell on Tommy, who was looking anxiously at her. “Are you there?” “Y-yes,” Lia answered. “Do you need something, Lia?” Christian asked. “Christian, actually the thing is, I want you to lift Tommy’s ban.” She gulped nervously. “He is a nice guy, I know him. Can you please do this for me?” “Tommy Blenth? Nice guy? Are you sure?” Christian asked in a grave tone. Unaware of Mishka’s presence behind him at the doorframe, who stopped in her track when she
When Mishka removed her top, not only Christian but other people around them were also looking at her. She was wearing a backless purple lacy longline bralette underneath her white top. Her skin was glowing under the sunlight and Christian could barely take his eyes off her while Mishka, on the other hand, was oblivious to all the attention she was getting. She stepped into the water and looked at Christian. “Hey, let’s play volleyball.” Mishka pointed to the group of people who were playing pool volleyball. “S-sure,” Christian nodded, composing himself to not look like an idiot, but then his eyes landed on the man behind Mishka, who was staring at her back with lustful eyes. “Hey! What the fuck are you watching?” Christian scowled. “Focus on your girlfriend!” He growled at the man, and the latter quickly looked away. Mishka observed Christian’s behaviour with an amused face. “Chill, what is wrong with you?” “What is wrong with me? What is wrong with you? I didn’t know you were
“Does that mean she will be trapped in that stagnant body forever?” Luke asked in a choked voice. “According to the latest reports, unfortunately, the answer is yes! I have asked for CT Scan reports and I might change her medicines after analysing her reports, but I want you to prepare yourself that there is a ninety-five per cent chance she will not recover. I c-can’t give you false hopes.” Dr Ken said and sat next to Luke on the bench. “Luke, you are my childhood friend. I understand you, and I took this hopeless case just for your sake. You know I will do my best to bring back your Vera. I know how much you love her!” “Ken, please bring her back. I can’t live without her. I feel so guilty when I see her wheelchair-bound. If something happens to her, then I will commit suicide from the very same terrace.” Luke whimpered, tears spilling out from his eyes. “Don’t say that, Luke. I will try my level best to cure Vera and bring her back to life.” Dr Ken spoke while caressing his back.
“India!! Are you fucking serious?” Dan shrieked, and Jake nodded. “Fuck!!” Dan cursed under his breath. “Why are you looking for them?” Jake asked. “None of your business. Go back to your room.” Dan said and dialled someone’s number. “Dad, I agreed to marry Jessica so that you stop your attacks on Mishka, but if you try to hurt her again, the consequences will not be good.” Jake threatened. “Oh, really! What will you do?” Dan mocked him. “I will kill you!” Jake declared in his determined tone, his eyes void of any emotions. Dan stared at him for a few moments and then burst into a series of laughter. “Don’t crack jokes when you are serious, boy. You will kill your dad? Really?” Jake walked forward and stood in front of him. “Look into my eyes. Do you find any fatherly love for you?” Jake asked, and Dan’s laugh came to a halt. “Stick to your promise, dad. You said you won’t hurt Mishka if I agreed to marry Jessica. I am ready to marry her, but you will stay away from Mishka.” Ja

Christian took furious steps back inside the office premises and Ana tried to speak to him again, “Not now, Ana!” He said sternly, so done with all the drama, and rushed to the elevator. But something caught his eyes, and his heart skipped a beat. His steps halted as he swiftly turned to look at the pair of silver heels lying leisurely near the reception.He furrowed his brows and recognised it as he recalled Mishka wearing the same in the morning. “Where is Mishka?” He almost shouted, his voice echoed, and his eyes peered at Ana for an answer.“She was here but left…. After…” Ana stuttered.“What after?” Christian asked, fearing the worst. “Damn it, say!!”“She left when she spotted Lia with you in the conference room,” Ana revealed, and Christian’s face lost all colour, and for a split of seconds, he couldn’t process anything.“Why didn’t I know she was here?” He looked for an explanation.“She came to give you a surprise,” The receptionist said and Christian’s eyes darken. He took a
Mishka walked into the building of Knight Group, and the staff politely greeted her. She reached the reception, holding the file of good news close to her heart, and asked. “Where is Christian?” “Sir is at an important conference. Let me inform him,” The receptionist said, but Mishka stopped her. “No, it’s alright. I’ll wait for him in the cabin.” She said and turned to the elevator when she slightly tripped on her heels and a look of horror washed over her face. “Are you alright, ma’am?” The receptionist quickly came forward to help. “Yeah! I’m fine.” Mishka said and quickly removed her heels while the receptionist looked at her weirdly. She left her heels near the reception and walked barefoot towards the elevator. All the while, she was humming a song. The lift opened on the fiftieth floor, and Ana approached her. “Good Evening, Ma’am. Please, this way!” She escorted her to Christian’s cabin. “Would you like to have something? Sir will be free in half an hour,” Ana said. “No,
“What??” Luke screeched loudly. “Yes, she had a severe seizure this early morning, and it was hard to control her. We have given her an injection. She will sleep at least sleep for the next five hours. But this is weird and dangerous. Just yesterday, everything was fine. I don’t understand how everything took a sudden flip.” Dr Ken stated, rubbing his stubble while Luke was heartbroken on the other side. “Please tell me, she is going to be fine,” Luke choked on his words. “It’s not possible to predict anything right now. It appears that she is in major trauma. We don’t know how it’s going to affect her improvement.” Dr Ken said, and Luke could literally hear his heart pounding inside his chest. “Sadly, seizures slow the improvement process,” “What’s happening with us?” Luke wondered as he disconnected the call, and looked at Vera and his wedding picture, remembering the time they spent happily. “Don’t torture me more, Vera.” His thumb traced Vera’s picture as he mumbled helplessly
Jennifer rolled her eyes, “Come on, Lia!! Why do you think she didn’t recognise you?” She asked with a sinister smirk on her face while Lia stared at her blankly. “Because she actually doesn’t know about you and Christian.” The realisation hit Lia. “But why would Christian hide this?” She muttered, unable to think straight. “Because he is going to dump her in the next few days. I don’t see any other reason.” Jennifer said. “Right, maybe because she is mentally unstable. I accidentally bumped into her at Dr. James’s clinic.” Lia started connecting dots. “You’re absolutely correct. She is mentally unstable, plus their contract marriage is expiring soon. But what were you doing at the clinic?” Jennifer questioned. “I went to collect my mother’s reports,” Lia answered. “I thought to ask Dr. James about her but then dropped the idea as I was sure he won’t share her confidential information. He was updating me about my mother’s health when he got a call from someone and he said Mishka i
Weeks spent peacefully. Christian was overjoyed when he learned Mishka was editing Scarlet’s upcoming book. He was excited to read the manuscript, and it was hard for Mishka to keep his hands away from her laptop that held all the secrets. Little Eric also joined preschool and was extremely happy to find kids of his age to play with. Mishka was slowly coming back to her original form, but her relationship with Rose was still strained as the latter was maintaining a gap with her. Daniel, too, was a little hesitant around Mishka, and she somehow realised it and stopped going to the Knight mansion. Leo was unhappy again. He wanted Mishka close to him, in his mansion, but Christian was stubborn about living in the apartment. “You have got an appointment with James!” Christian reminded Mishka while wearing a silk blue tie. “I remember. I’ll drop Eric at school and then head to his clinic.” She said and turned to Eric, “It’s bathing time, come on,” She said, but Eric ran away and made Mis
Christian was sleeping peacefully. His hand roamed on the left side of the bed and he slowly opened his eyes. He jerked up and looked around, only to find Mishka standing in front of the dresser. She was wearing a white top with charcoal black skinny fit jeans, her long dark brown wavy hair open reaching her waist and she wore diamond earrings while humming a song. “What are you doing?” Christian asked, eyeing her actions. She turned and smiled at him. “Oh, you are up. I am going to Snowdrop Publication. I’ve got an appointment with Warren Thomson.” She said with a broad smile on her face and walked toward him. “I met Dr James yesterday. He said I should keep myself engaged. That’s why I’ve decided to resume my editing job.” She said, sitting beside him on the bed. “Are you out of your mind? After what happened yesterday, you think…” Before Christian could complete it, Mishka interrupted him. “What happened?” She asked, cluelessly, and Christian furrowed his brows. “You don’t re
“My wife, Mishka, met you this morning. What’s exactly wrong with her?” Christian asked, and Dr James took a sip of his drink. “She is suffering from melancholic depression.” Dr James states and Christian’s heart skipped a beat. FLASHBACK “Send the next patient in,” Dr James asked the nurse, who was waiting for his instruction. The door of the cabin opened again and Mishka stepped in. “Please take a seat,” Dr James said while writing something on his writing pad. Mishka settled on the seat opposite him and gulped nervously. She didn’t know how to explain. If this was some physical injury, she could’ve described it, but what to describe when she doesn’t know what she was suffering from? Mishka continuously tapped her fingers on the desk and James noticed, “Relax, Mrs Knight!” He said and lifted his eyes to look at her anxious face. Mishka’s fingers stopped tapping as she smiled, but she was creeping out from inside. “I think I should come next time, sorry for wasting your time,” S
Christian sat inside his car and slammed his hand on the steering wheel. “I never listened to anyone’s suggestions before taking any decision. I always did what I wanted to do. Then why the fuck I agreed with Danny’s idea when he stopped me from telling the truth of the contract marriage to Mishka? Just Why?” He pulled his hair in frustration. “I have to tell Mishka about Lia. I won’t give any chance to Lia to destroy anything.” He said to himself. “But what if the revelation negatively affects her health?” This question haunted him. “No... No, she will be fine! I’ll make sure this doesn’t affect her, but now I have to disclose the truth even if it creates a rift between us,” He thought when a message from Luke flashed on his screen. “Can you come with Eric and Mishka? Vera wants to see them.” “Sure, we’ll be there in an hour or so,” Christian answered and started the engine of his car when it started raining heavily. He had an unsettling feeling about something is not right. His
