Half an hour later, Lisa reached the hospital. The guard gave her an attendee's pass to go in which was managed by the nurse. He told her that she could stay only 15 minutes inside the ward and warned her, again and again, to not make any noise.
Lisa thanked him many times before she went into the hospital. There was a small smile on her face. She was thrilled. Her heart was also beating faster in excitement. She hurried to his ward.
There she found the nurse waiting for her. The nurse informed her that Mack Black had gone out for breakfast just now and she could stay 10 minutes.
Lisa was a little unhappy. The guard told her she could stay 15 minutes but the nurse was telling her she had only 10 minutes. What game she was playing with her?
With a jerk, Carl Black opened his eyes widely and stared at the white ceiling motionlessly. His ears were buzzing and his vision was blurry. For a few minutes, he couldn't understand whether he was awake or dreaming. Everything seemed very unusual. His eyeballs were fixed at a certain point of the white ceiling and his body was also not moving at all. After a long time, the buzzing sound in his ears started fading gradually and he moved his gaze around the ward. He was not aware of where he was. He slowly turned his head and saw a person's sleeping figure on the sofa vaguely. He couldn't see his face. He blinked his eyes slowly, trying to see who the person was. But without his glasses, it was impossible for him to see clearly. He wanted to call him but his throat was so dry that his voice didn’t come out and he began to cough. Startled, Mack Black sat up on the sofa instantly. His eyes we
On the other end, Lisa came every day to the hospital during these two days but the guard who helped her was replaced by another one. She remembered him. He was pretty rude to her last time. This was the same guard who threw her out of the hospital that night and threatened her to call the cop. She requested him to give some information about Carl Black, but he didn't pay attention to her. Despondent, Lisa only could look at the hospital sullenly. Actually, the guard, who helped her, took leave and went to his hometown. Two days later he resumed his work. Lisa was delighted to see him after two days. She rushed to him and asked immediately, "Do you have any news of Mr. Black?" "Your husband had woken up two days back."
Lisa stood statically on the spot in a daze, looking at the car that exited just now through the hospital gate. Carl Black kept staring at her petite figure through the side mirror until she was in his line of sight. Closing his eyes, he leaned back to the seat. Half an hour later, they reached the villa. Lisa also arrived at the villa, five minutes after they had reached. Both the brothers and Helen Black were talking about something, sitting on the sofa in the living room. Helen Black looked at Lisa coldly once she entered the villa. She was a little unhappy with her. "Now you have time to come. What sickness did you have that you didn't show up once in the hospital?" Embarrassed, Lisa remained quiet, looking down at her toes. Carl Black was only gazing at her the moment she entered the room. Helen Black's words and her c
Lisa lowered her head as tears welled up in her eyes. She didn't want to show them her tears. It took her whole to send the tears back. Carl Black clenched his fist tightly under the table noticing Mack Black act restlessly. He felt a twinge in his heart seeing how rudely his brother was treating Lisa. He stole a glance at her and said, "Finish the food fast. It's getting cold." Lisa nodded feebly and tried to eat. But after taking two bites she couldn't eat anymore. She felt so sore in her throat while swallowing the food. She tried to stay calm and not to cry but her eyes burned as fresh tears began to accumulate in her eyes. She only poked the food with the fork. When Helen Black saw her not eating, she asked worriedly, "Why are you not eating? Do you still feel uncomfortable?"
Daniel Brooke placed his hand around her shoulder, offering a wide smile to Carl Black, "I was asking her to go for dinner with me." He then looked down at her and asked, "Am I right, sweetheart?" Lisa didn't hear anything that Daniel Brooke asked. Her only concentration was on Carl Black, who was also looking at her indifferently. Without changing the slightest bit of expression, Carl Black asked Lisa again, "Are you coming?" Lisa came to her senses and brushed off Daniel Brooke's hand from her shoulder. She was about to go to Carl Black, but Daniel Brooke held her wrist and asked with a worried tone, "Sweetheart, you promised to go with me. Have you changed your mind?" Shocked, Lisa looked back at Daniel Brooke with wide eyes and mouth agape. He lied deliberately. He had already created a misunderstanding
Few more days passed. Lisa recovered from the fever and started going to her work. During these days she hardly encountered Carl Black, despite living in the same house. Whenever they crossed their path they just looked at each other for a few moments and went back to their respective work without a word. Such a life was suffocating. Lisa wanted to clear the misunderstanding but whenever she encountered him, she couldn't invoke her courage to speak after seeing his cold dark eyes. The same was with Carl Black also. He wanted to take care of her but he didn't know whether it was his ego or the regret for mistreating her, he suppressed his desire to talk to her. They both mostly avoided each other. That day when Lisa came back from the institute she saw him packing his things. She panicked and asked in a frenzy, "Where are you going?"
Carl Black only glanced at her and didn't pay further attention. The lady came closer and leaned forward to him. She was wearing a deep-cut 'V' neck dress, exposing a sumptuous amount of her breast in front of Carl Black. For a few seconds, he couldn't pull back his eyes from her chest. She glanced at him provocatively and caressed his cheek with her slender finger, "I saw you every night coming here and drinking alone. Are you unhappy in your married life or your girlfriend ditched you?" Annoyed, Carl Black pushed her away, "None of your business." She chuckled and leaned back on the counter, "Ah... so it's a girlfriend problem." Leaning forward on him again, she whispered in his ear, "I can solve your problem. I know what you exactly need. Do you want to come with me?"
In that video clipping, one woman was on top of Carl Black. She was moaning loudly in pleasure. In the other messages, there were few photographs of him chatting with that woman in a bar. She was leaning on him, looking seductively. There was no doubt what could have happened between them. Lisa felt like her world collapsed. Due to anger, he ended up sleeping with another woman. Did he hate her so much that he punished her in this way? There was an indescribable pain in her heart. Pulling her hair in frustration, she cried, but she immediately covered her mouth as she was scared to think that Helen Black might hear her sobbing. Meanwhile, her eyes landed on the phone. Unable to control her anger, she grabbed the phone and was about to throw it, but the ph
“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
