“Mrs Karren?” Nina spoke, startled, seeing her landlady in front of her. In all of this mess, she completely forgot about this headache of hers. Nina saw her landlady sending her a dispising glare before she pushed Nina's arm away to let herself step inside the door. Nina scowled while glaring at her back because that woman had no manners or etiquettes. Whenever she came here, she didn't leave a single chance to make Nina remember that this house belonged to her. “So, Ms. Halzel, where is my rent?” Mrs Karren asked her with no courtesy or politeness. Nina sighed. She had not given her the rent of the previous month and her landlady had already visited her almost more than ten times to get her rent from her. “Mrs Karren, I will give it to you just give….” “I don't have any time for your same lame excuses, Ms. Halzen, of getting fired from your job because that's not my headache to take,” her landlady shut her up. “I have given you my house to live in, so I need my rent for it and
“Welcome to your new home,” Nina heard Cain telling her after opening the door of his apartment for her. Soon after packing her stuff, he told her to move in with him without waiting for the next morning. Nina felt hesitant but reluctantly she agreed to his decision and came here to his apartment with him after leaving her own home ... .at least that was what she had been believing as her home for the past six months. Nina stepped inside his apartment. It was not the first time she was coming here. He had taken her here a few times before too but she had always stayed in his apartment for not more than an hour but right now, she was going to stay here for full days and even nights which was terrifying her the most because she didn't know for how long she would have to stay here with him. Besides, no matter what Nina was not comfortable sharing her privacy with someone, especially with an opposite gender. Called her narrow minded or hypocrite, Cain was her boyfriend but Nina was still
“His name is Carl Abrot,” he heard his man telling him. His piercing brown eyes were fixed at the picture of that man in front of him.“And as per our sources, he lives around Dawn Blue College. He has been caught wandering around that college most of the time, especially during the nighttime,” he keenly heard every word of his man who was informing him about a man who had been suspecting keeping his eyes on them and their underworld business.“Our suspicion is not confirmed yet that he has been working for Gonzalezs or not,” “Keep your eyes on him and his every move,” he finally opened his mouth, staring at the picture of that man.“Okay and what about that girl, Nina Halzen?” He heard his man asking him suddenly and hearing that girl's name, his palm clenched on his own.“Should we keep our eyes on h…”“Forget about her,” he shut that man up, barely being able to hold his anger from bursting out at his man just because he dared to mention about that filth of a girl.Snapping his ga
After climbing the stairs, Nina reached the second floor of that huge mansion of Alfansos. She roamed her eyes everywhere around her and noticed there were more than half a dozen rooms on this floor and she had also forgotten to ask Mr Riccardo Alfanso about in which room she should be going. For a brief moment, she continued to stand there while thinking about where she should be heading to but suddenly she recalled that stain of pudding on her dress. She looked down and witnessed that pudding stain drying up on her favourite and one and only dress. Resisting thinking about anything else, Nina dashed inside the very first room she found on her way, without even trying to find out to whom it belonged. She entered that room and wandered her eyes everywhere in search of a bathroom and in that process, she noticed something off about this room and she herself didn't know why and what. Probably because she didn't like the vintage and cool tone colours of this room. It was giving her s
“Let alone thinking about fucking touching you, Nina Halzen,” Nina heard him snarling at her. His choice of words for her enraged her. What the fuck he thought of her? And how fucking dared he talked to her like this after everything,? “Glad to know that we have the same thoughts regarding each other,” she spat at him, glaring upward at his burning gaze. The shower water was splashing down on both of their bodies but it did nothing to calm that anger building up inside them for each other. “And about stripping myself naked for a man like you then don't worry about it. My days haven't turned so bad that I would have to remove my clothes for a man almost twice my age, Mr Devil Alfanso,” she seethed out at him. He flared his nostrils, processing the meaning behind her words. Her audacious nature and filthy big mouth were getting under his skin and in the worst possible way because he had never let anyone talk to him like this ever, except for that one specific person whom he had lost 7
Hearing her taking the name of his deceased wife, he completely snapped out of his own control. He lost it entirely because he despised even letting anyone take his wife's name with a wrong intention and here, she dared to insult it by insulting his love for his wife which was his existence. She dared to harm his existence and there was no forgiveness for it for him. Losing his rational senses, he clutched her neck in an extremely violent grip, blocking the passage of her air. “How fucking dared you to take her name from your filthy mouth?” He growled at her, turning his grip more brutal around her neck. Nina's face had started turning red. Tears were vigorously streaming down from her eyes as she could neither say or do anything. Her anxiety kicked in the very second she looked down and saw that blood trailing down from his hand and falling on her dress whereas his brutal hold around her neck turned her panic attack more worse for her to endure. She turned so vulnerable that she w
“Because Rican hates himself for not being able to save his wife and his child's life 7 years ago,” Riccardo's words froze Nina in every possible way. Her teary eyes slightly widened in shock. She was not aware of this. All this she had been believing that he had lost his wife but that was the incomplete truth. 7 years ago, he had lost his child too.“But Cain never told me about this. He….” Nina didn't even know what to say anymore after hearing about that thing which was capable of wrecking anyone's heart with pain just like her heart was aching now. She could not even imagine the pain he must have felt that time when he had to lose, both his wife and his child.Nina looked away from Riccardo to trail her eyes at Aniya and saw tears glistening in her eyes. Even Riccardo's eyes were engulfed with gloominess and pain. It hurt Nina more and she herself didn't know why their pain was bothering and affecting her so much.Lifting her palm up, Nina placed it over Aniya's face. She got that
“Do you think I won't notice that you intentionally planned everything to make sure Nina and Rican would get in front of each other here again?” Aniya snapped at her husband because she found out everything her husband had been trying to do in secret. “I had seen you doing something with that pen which you handed Rican and I had even heard you talking to that staff member who dropped that pudding on Nina's dress, Riccardo. I know everything,” Aniya uttered more angrily. She had seen Riccardo doing something to that pen in his study room but she didn't pay much attention to it at that time, believing it was something normal and later when she was returning from the kitchen after helping the staff members, she heard him talking to that staff member about dropping that pudding on Nina's dress intentionally but before she could stop him, it had already turned too late and they all heard that loud noise of glass shattering which came from Rican's room and they all had to run there and fou
