LEONARD KISH'S POV,

As soon as I got off the phone, Sam asked, "Boss! Is anything the matter?" His words dripped with caution, his concern etched on his face as he stared at me.

The words had barely left his lips when I turned my phone to Sam and showed him the photo of Elsa and Richard, smiling cozily at each other in an eatery, and Sam's brows creased.

"Do you know where this is?" I asked, my gaze fixed intently on Sam, as I demanded an answer from him.

He scratched his head, and hesitated a little. "I think it's close to her workplace." He answered, his voice a stark contrast to his initial determination.

As soon as I heard his words, I pulled my gaze from him. "Do you know the exact location?" I asked, my jaw clenched in determination.

"Yes Boss!" He answered in a small, his tone ringing with caution.

The shock she had felt was evident on her face, which made Richard slowly turn towards my direction, with an annoying broad smile on his face.In that instant, my fist shot out, and my fury directed it towards his face in a fierce determination, "Bastard!" I cursed, my voice heavy with rage.A gasp of surprise escaped Elsa's throat as my punch sent Richard off balance, and her hands flew to her mouth to stifle the shock she had felt. Her eyes darted desperately from Richard to me, her fear clearly writte

I glared at him, my blood burning hot with a seething rage, my heart banging hard against my ribcage in a mix of fear and pain."Elsa, let's get out of here, now!" He said, his voice tight with an urgency that left me confused. As he stretched his hand towards me again, I tactically avoided it, my brows creased with the confusion that had settled into my heart.

Are you justifying him now?" I asked, my words ringing with disbelief as I stared at him,"No Boss! That's not what I meant; I was only trying to be rational," he responded calmly, as he pulled his gaze from me, making me scoff and rolled my eyes."As far as I'm concerned, he deserved it, and I wished I had given him enough beating," I said, "I only hate the fact that I had bent so low to his level, but I wished you didn't restrain me," My jaw clenched as soon as the words left my lips, and as the s

As I lay there watching my life and all that I had dreamt of slip through my fingers, with no control over my own life, the door to my room swung open."Oh my goodness, Elsa!"

I asked Sam after a strained meeting with the shareholders that day.My steps were swift and heavy as they carried me back to my office."Just like you ordered, Boss," Sam said, in a matching intensity.

I arrived at the Orphanage precisely at eleven o'clock, but I knew she might not be open to receive visitors at that moment, so I patiently waited until lunchtime.At precisely twelve-thirty, the bell rang, and immediately, I opened the door. I was determined to get my course rolling, but since I hadn't informed her about my coming, I opted for a text instead.After typing a "Hi!" I realized she might not respond to a strange number, since she never gave it to me, so I immediately deleted it and threw a bait instead."Lunch?" I texted and as I waited for her response, the sound of my heartbeat grew louder in my ears, even as I hoped for her response.Aft

I didn't need anyone to remind me that time was of the essence, and I had to get her by every means possible.As I strolled towards the door, that morning, my father's voice rang from behind me,"Going to see that girl again?" He asked, his tone tight with annoyance, halting me in my tracks.'Again?' I thought, trying to comprehend what he meant by that, and just then it dawned on me that my father really got his eyes on me.I turned sharply, my eyes narrowing in annoyance, and I fixed my gaze on my father, whose face had no smile."How..."
