"Lazy boy... Get up. It's already half past 7. Why are you sleeping till now? Did you forget what day is today?"
Helen Black was furious and scolding Mack Black loudly. This was the day of Carl Black and Lisa’s engagement. She had lots of work to do. How could she be relaxed? But seeing Mack Black sleeping till now, she got furious.
"Why are you shouting in the early morning?"
Mack Black opened his eyes lazily. He had no intention to wake up so early. He took a leave for the engagement ceremony. There was no hurry to wake up. After all, his brother had already hired a wedding planner. What would he do to wake up early? He continued sleeping completely ignoring his mother.
Helen Black was helpless. She yelled and knoc
"En... Do you have matching jewelry for this dress?" Anna Green drank a few mouthfuls of juice and watched Lisa inquisitive. Lisa nodded and answered, "Luckily, I have. Let's finish the juice first. We don't have much time." They quickly finished drinking juice and started dressing up. Lisa wore a purple dress with matching jewelry. She looked stunningly gorgeous. Anna Green whistled, "Wow, you are ready to kill Mr. Black today." Lisa blushed at her compliment, and the corner of her lips curled upwards involuntarily. Anna continued to say, "I have to say, Mr. Black has good taste. He chose the best."
When Anna Green ran down hurriedly, she bumped into someone pretty hard. She fell to the ground on her butt while she heard an unpleasant sound of metal clanging. Prong... Prong... Her nose was painful due to the collision, and she rubbed it, looking ahead, only to see a few beer cans lying in front of her. She looked up and saw a tall man looming over her. His expression was somber. She stood up and said frantically, "I am really...." Before she could finish speaking, the man snapped coldly, "Are your eyes buttons? Can't you see ahead and walk?" "I am sorry, I am sorry. I was in a hurry. I didn't see you." "Humph...Can't find any excuse to
Lisa held her hand and walked towards the dining area. There was a grand buffet. She made her sit on a table and said, "Wait here, I will bring your food." She went up to the buffet table and filled a plate. She came back to the table and passed the plate to her. She sat on a chair opposite her and looked at her worriedly, "Can you tell me now what happened to you? You are acting weirdly. I can see that." Anna Green sighed deeply. They had been friends since college and pretty close to each other. She knew she couldn't hide this matter from her any longer. "Someone came to me to ask about Neil. He said he is detective Andrew. But only today I figured out that the man was not Andrew." "What do you mean?" Lisa was shocked. S
Anna Green didn't go out of her house for two days. She thought the psycho killer was waiting for her outside, and once she went out of her house, he would come to kill her. But that morning, she received a call from the principal, and he asked her to go to school. Though she didn't want to go anywhere, there was no way left. She must go to school. How long could she lock herself up inside the house? This was not the solution. After thinking like this, she gathered her courage and decided to go to school. After breakfast, she got ready to go out. However, her steps froze the moment she opened the door. Her body went numb, and the bag slipped away from her hand. The shock was evident on her face. For a few seconds, she couldn't react and kept staring at the person standing in front
In the meantime, her phone rang. Anna Green looked at the bag that was lying on the floor. She grabbed the bag, took out her phone, and looked at it, only to see Lisa's name flashing on the screen. Only then did she realize how late she was for school. She cursed in a low voice "Shit." Then she answered the phone, "Hello." "Where are you? The principal has already called me in his office to ask about you. Are you coming or not?" Lisa sounded furious on the phone. "Yes, yes, I am coming." She hung up the call immediately. She looked at Henry and said, "I have to go to school. I am already running late." He stood up and said, "All right, I'll drop you."
Daniel Brooke’s expression turned gloomy while looking at her leaving figure. He clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth in anger. He then stood up abruptly and left the cafe. On the other side, when Lisa came out of the cafe, she received a call from Carl Black. A small smile appeared on her face involuntarily the moment she saw his name on the screen. She answered the call quickly, "Hello." "Are you not done yet? I am waiting for you for a long time outside the gate." His cold deep voice came out from the other end of the phone. She gasped in surprise. Why did he come to school? She already told him, no need to come to pick her up.
Daniel Brooke looked at their departing figures, and his expression turned sinister. He took out his phone and dialed a number. He commanded fiercely as soon as the call connected, "I need detailed information about Carl Black. His daily routine, his friends, enemies, every single detail. I need it as soon as possible." He hung up the call soon after saying this, without waiting for the response from the other end of the phone. He looked at them again. He saw them getting in the car and driving away. He stood there for a long time, looking in the direction from where they just disappeared from his sight, before leaving from there. Inside the car, Carl Black's expression was cold. His full concentration was on driving. He even didn't glance at her. The awkward silence inside the car was oppressive, and Lisa was feeling very uncomf
It was half-past 10 at night. Daniel Brooke was working in his study room. But his concentration was not in the work. He was flipping the pages of a file one after another. After continuously flipping for some time, he got so irritated that he swept all the files from the table. All the papers scattered instantly on the floor. The scene of Lisa walking away from him, holding Carl Black's hand was vivid in his mind. He ran his fingers through his hair with frustration. In the meantime, his phone rang. He answered the call immediately, "Hello." "Boss, I have all the information about Mr. Carl Black." Someone spoke from the other end of the phone. "Speak." "He is a pretty good professor almost without any flaws. He is famous in his college for his r
“Why are you here?” Instead of answering him, Daniel asked back a question.“You are my son, and it is my right to come and check you.” Thomas Brooke raised his voice slightly, feeling annoyed.“But I don’t want to see your face.” Daniel Brooke turned his head to the other side.“Daniel, I have done all this for the safety of you and the family. Don’t forget that you are engaged with Mr. Mayor’s daughter, and you know well that how rich and powerful he is. It will not take an hour for him to take down our family. If you have given up your madness, nothing would have happened like this.” He sounded irritated.Daniel Brooke sat up on the sickbed and said fiercely, “You are justifying a conspiracy to ki

Daniel Brooke sat up on the sickbed and said fiercely, “You are justifying a conspiracy to kill an innocent. Unbelievable, Dad. And, what about killing Alex and
Bang… Bang… Another two more gunshots sounded loud back to back. Lisa shirked, closing her eyes. Silence swept in the room after that. She could only hear her rapidly beating heartbeat. Slowly she opened her eyes and looked up at Carl Black who was shielding her with his body. She asked in a shaky voice, “Are you alright?” He answered, “Yes, my love.” Thump... Meanwhile, they heard the dull sound of something falling on the floor. They turned to look, only to see Daniel Brooke lying on the floor. Blood was dripping down from his belly. He took the bullet for her. Albert was lying behind him, dead. Derek shot two bullets directly on his head. “Daniel…” Lisa shouted and rushed
On the other end, Daniel Brooke reached the location with Derek before the cops could reach them. Derek’s men spread everywhere in the area. There were many incomplete buildings. They have no idea in which building Albert was hiding. Suddenly a voice came out from Derek’s walkie-talkie, “Two men were seen on the rooftop of the last building to the right side.” “Got it,” Derek answered. They looked up at the last building and saw two men roaming around on the rooftop, inspecting the surroundings. They had guns in their hands. Derek looked at Daniel Brooke, “Now we should go ahead, avoiding their eyes.” Nodding, they approached carefully, hiding behind the stacks of bricks. They saw dozens of men guarding the building when they came
Albert laughed loudly again, “You are smart, Daniel. Did you know why I called you?” He waited for a while but when he didn’t get any answer from Daniel Brooke, he began to say, “Because my men have abducted your beloved woman. And her husband also came following her. Now he is fighting with my man.” He laughed again loudly. Soon his expression changed into a monstrous look, “If you want her alive, come to the abandoned construction site of JK builders alone within an hour. If you delay or you try to trick me, you will lose her forever.” “Don’t touch her.” Daniel Brooke shouted impulsively. “Your problem is with me. She is innocent. Don’t do anything to her. I will come wherever you want.” “See you soon.” The call ended immed
Carl Black chuckled and looked at his mother, “Mom…” Holding her hand, he went to her room. On the other end, after showing all the rooms of the Black villa, Mack Black finally took Lisa to her bedroom, “And this is your bedroom. Go and rest. I hope bro will come in any minute.” Smiling, he waved at her and ushered her inside the room. When Lisa came in, various scenes started playing like a recording in her mind. All the scenes were entangled with each other, and she couldn’t make heads or tails of those. She walked towards the bed in reverie and saw her cry miserably. She felt a sharp pain in her heart, and her breathing quickened. Blinking continuously, she tried to remember what happened in the past.
Turning off the shower, Daniel quickly came out of the bathroom and changed his cloth. Grabbing the car key, he rushed out of his penthouse and drove to the college. Half an hour later, he reached the college and headed to the department of Physics. He blocked the way of a young boy and asked “Hey… Can you show me Professor Black’s cabin?” The boy replied happily, “Sure. Follow me.” Daniel Brooke followed the young man quietly, inspecting the surroundings. He never thought that he would come to meet his arch-rival on his own. He wondered how Carl Black would react to see him. When he was lost in his thoughts, the boy said. “There is Professor Black’s cabin.” The boy stretched his arm and pointed his finger ah
Daniel Brooke threw the gun to Derek and said in his commanding tone, “Call the police and inform Albert’s whereabouts.” With that, he walked out of the house. Derek signaled his men to take care of everything and followed Daniel Brooke. That night the police went to the address that had been given by Kyle Kings, but Albert was nowhere to be found. All his belongings were left which proved his presence. However, before the police could reach him, he ran away. When Daniel Brooke learned about it, he got mad, “You all are useless. This was our golden chance to capture him. All these days he was right under our nose, but we failed to locate him, and now he managed to escape. Find him at any cost before he harms anyone.” He kicked hard on the sofa and cursed loudly, “Fu*
Lisa woke up after a few hours and looked around, but she didn’t find any trace of Carl Black. She panicked and the view of him walking away from her, holding a suitcase came alive in front of her eyes. Grabbing the towel, she wrapped it around her body and walked out of the room. She heard the humming of someone and looked down at the source of the sound, only to see him doing something in the kitchen. It seemed that his mood was good. Lisa’s lips curled up involuntarily and came back to the room. She went to the bathroom to freshen up. After taking a quick shower, she came out and changed her clothes. Last night she didn’t look around the area properly so she went to the balcony and looked outside. There were many tall trees in that area. The chir
