That day Carl Black came back very late to the villa. He saw Lisa standing beside the door. He walked with long strides and asked, "Are you waiting for me?"
"Yes."
He pulled her into his embrace and kissed her head longingly, "Did you miss me?"
Frowning, she looked up at him, only to see him smiling brightly. She skipped a beat to see his smiling face. She licked her lips and asked, "What happened at the college? Why are you so late?"
He sighed and released her from his embrace. Walking inside the room, he said, "I am hungry. First, give me some food."
He then strode directly to his room. He was literally starving. He was so engrossed in the
The next morning Lisa’s sleep was disturbed by the heaviness she felt around her waist. She looked down, only to see Carl Black’s arm snaked her body. She turned her head and watched his handsome face. His hair was messy, and some strands had fallen on his forehead. She reached out her hand to push back his hair but her hands froze in the mid-air when she saw him opening his eyes and looking at her. She retracted her hand and tried to get up, but his grip around her waist tightened. Then she heard him say, "It's still early. Sleep for a while." Lisa grabbed her phone from the side table and looked at the time. It was 6 in the morning. She couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going jogging today?" "No." He replied casually, closing his eyes. He didn’t intend to get up.
Half an hour later, both mother and son came down to the living room. They were chatting happily while coming there. Helen Black held Lisa's hand and smiled widely, "I am happy for you. Go and enjoy your life." Lisa was a little puzzled and only smiled unknowingly what to say. She was just going out for some time then why her mother-in-law was saying that? Carl Black asked, "Shall you go now?" She only nodded in response. They walked out and got in the car. He turned on the engine and the car zoomed off. More than an hour of driving, they reached a newly built residential complex. Lisa saw a few times the advertisement of the apartments in this area in the newspaper.
The next day she left her parent's place early in the morning as she wanted to reach the apartment before Carl Black left for college. These days he was living alone in the apartment, arranging everything before Lisa’s return. Carl Black was having breakfast when the doorbell rang. He went to open the door and got pleasantly surprised to see Lisa on the doorstep. He looked at her, raising his eyebrows slightly. He was not expecting her so early in the morning. There was a faint smile on his face. He planned to go pick her up once he came back from college but he was thrilled to see her. Lisa hugged him the moment she saw him and whispered, "I was missing you." He hugged her back and said, "I missed you too, my love."
Anna Green's jaw dropped, and her eyes widened to hear the familiar voice, utterly bewildered. She doubted how he would be able to come here. She saw the familiar face when he lifted his face. Though he changed his look, how could she not recognize those captivating eyes? She smiled widely and exclaimed excitedly, "Neil, is that you?" He also smiled and asked, "What do you think?" She was overjoyed and wanted to scream, but she came down to the earth almost immediately and panicked. Holding his wrist, she pulled him inside the house. She swept her gaze outside quickly and closed the door. She turned around to look at him and asked in a frenzy, "How did you come here? Isn't it risky?" Neil Green sat down on the
Daniel Brooke turned back to look at Lisa and saw her getting in the taxi that took off within a blink. He stood there motionlessly looking at the back of the taxi until it went out of his line of sight. He couldn’t shake off her last words. He felt heavy in his heart. Her words compelled him to think that he might be doing wrong. However, he shook off that thought from his head almost immediately it appeared. He had done so many things just to take her back by his side. This was his golden chance to win her back and he couldn't miss this. Though convincing her would be a challenging one, he was ready to face any challenge. If she didn't come back to him easily, he would force her to come back. After thinking like that, he walked to his car and drove off. Lisa leaned back on the seat, closing her eyes. She was still in shock. Daniel Brooke's words were causing her heart to bleed. What did h
On the other end, Lisa placed her forehead on the back of Carl Black's hand and said in a low voice, "When will you wake up? Do you have any idea how much pain I am feeling to see you like this? Are you angry with me? Don't you want to see my face? Don't you love me? Wake up, please, and look at me." She then started crying uncontrollably. At that moment, she felt that his finger moved slightly. She instantly stopped crying and looked at his hand with her wide eyes. She couldn't understand what she felt just now was real or her hallucination. Did it really happen? Confused, she looked at his fingers for a long time, hoping that she could see a movement but to her disappointment, she didn't see anything. It turned out that it was only her thought. Tears again streamed down from her eyes, "Mr.
Helen Black was coming to the hospital when she saw Linda Holmes running away. She called her a few times but Linda Holmes ran farther away from her. It seemed as if she never heard her. Helen Black looked at her rapidly departing back in bewilderment. She wondered why she came to the hospital so early in the morning and why she was running away from there. Suddenly a bad feeling emerged in her mind, and she panicked. She quickly walked into the hospital. When she came to the ward, she saw Lisa weeping, holding Carl Black’s hand. She felt nothing but heartache, "Why do you keep crying? If you continue crying, you will fall ill." Lisa was startled by her sudden appearance. She immediately wiped her tears and mustered a smile, "Mom, when did you come?" "Just now I came." Helen Bl
Some photographs were lying on the ground near her feet in which Daniel Brooke was kissing her. Lisa bent down to pick up the photo and recalled something. It was taken in his penthouse and she remembered that it was the day when she went to get help from him to prove Carl Black innocent in the question paper leak case. At that time, she didn't know that someone was capturing the moments in the camera when he was hugging and kissing her. She now realized that Daniel Brooke had framed Carl Black only to destroy their relationship. By doing this, he wanted to break Carl Black mentally. Anger leaped into her mind and her entire being trembled in rage when this thought crossed her mind. She crushed the photo in her hand and said, "I have no relationship with him. He is framing me." She looked up at Mack Black and tried to explain, "Believe me, Mack. I have never cheated on Mr. Black."
“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
