★★★★★KatherineI glanced once at the dress and then at the door, pondering whether to run or not since I was sure he did not lock it. "I can't trust him. And the frequent changes in his thoughts are quite terrifying. Who knows what will happen to me at the dinner table?" I muttered to myself, going forward with the idea to check the door. And damn! It was unlocked.I stood at the door, wandering my eyes to the long corridor, and to end the corridor, I had to cross four other rooms. I couldn't imagine at this moment how big this place was. Every time I took a step forward I felt a fear-the fear of getting caught and ruining the small chance he had offered me. But then I did not know if there was a chance like he said. Therefore, I began walking with small steps as my gaze sauntered warily. At that moment, a servant walked out of the room, and she had a broom in her hand. I held my breath and stared at the servant with a stone gaze. " is there anything I can help you with, or do y
★★★★ Katherine I felt worried as soon as I approached the dining table because there were more people on the table. Except for him, they had their curious gaze on me. The nervousness in me grew stronger as I came to a stop to the distant chair from them. The moment I realized Theo was leaving, I pulled the chair behind to sit. When his voice boomed, "What do you think you are doing?" I was startled as my gaze shifted toward him. Since I had not been told what I would do at the dinner table, hence, I had various thoughts about whether I had to serve instead of joining him for dinner. "Don't just stand there. Come here!" He ordered with his usual commanding tone. In the same way, my body refused to stand against his Orders, and I made my way to him. The scrutinizing gazes from the two women sitting in the opposite row of the table made me feel like itch to ask if she had expensive jewelry on her face or if they hadn't seen another woman before. "May I serve?" I asked beforehan
★★★★★Katherine"Stan, my boy, we are aware of the past. You cannot deny me and your uncle has tried every possible way to return you home. You didn't agree. But this is something else," the woman was still not convinced how her precious nephew was eating with me. But that was completely fine to me because I did not want to be here either."Something else? Like what?" His tone was becoming worse as if he was slowly losing his patience."Mom is talking about family. I mean, our family likes to live with the rules and status and mom is trying to Express how the rest of the family will react once they hear about her," Stephanie said in her mother's place as I watched how she desperately covered up the mess her mother's response would create."Is that so? I am not using the family name or wealth, nor do I recall them in my sweetest memory." I looked at the devil as he paused his blunt mouth. I wondered how big and rich his family was."Why would I care how they will react? Technically, th
★★★★★ Zac Bratva "You have plenty of time to come and explore this place. Right now, you should go home with your mother," I refused to let Stephanie linger in my house, clearly because I hate people. I knew why she wanted to stay back, and how their car broke down mysteriously in front of my house. Huh! These stupid people! I shook my head. These fools don’t know what will happen to them if I get irritated. Hmmm! At the same time I can’t deny they are no headache for me, just some tiny pawns for my entertainment. On the other hand, I looked at the woman next to me and found her restless. She kept glancing at my aunt and Stephanie, waiting for them to do something to take her way, but what she did not know was they were not the people she could put her trust in. "Stan, I hope you will let go of the past and come to meet your family. Your father's health is not looking good." I smiled at my aunt and replied, "My past is not bad or dark for me. Hence, I have nothing to let go of. H
★★★★★ Katherine I could not believe how shameless this man was. On one hand, he was telling me my movement was causing trouble in him, yet I was forcefully held down when I tried to get up. "I have not enjoyed such an exciting dinner for a long time," he said, drawing his face closer to my neck. Instantly, the hair on my nape stood up, and I moved an inch away from him. "You use me to irk your family. I hope they won't come after me," I muttered with my eyes sharply looking at him. Those deep, controlled blue eyes had thrown me into deep thoughts about whether he was really that man. At the same time, I didn't think he would be so calm after finding me if he was really that guy. Furthermore, was not his name supposed to be Zac Bratva? "I believe in you!" He said with a knowing smile that scratched the surface of my heart as I felt my stomach drop lower, and I questioned, "What do you mean?" "If they reach for you, I know you can handle it," he said, his tone filled with mock. "I
★★★★Katherine"You can stop the car here," I said to the driver as I looked at the central town. The bustling city and the people coming out of the bar were enough for me to camouflage. After that, I would take a cab to go home without fearing that man would find out about my son."Which one is your house here?" The driver asked, his tone was cold and flat."Don't worry, my house is on the right lane, and your car cannot fit in that lane. A little walk won’t hurt my feet. Tell your boss that I am very grateful for the ride," I smiled gently as I fluently said to the driver. Opening the car door, I was about to get out when he replied, "Alright, let me walk you home!""What?? Pffft.... no. Are you kidding? You don't have to. Besides, I know the youngsters hanging out in this area are nasty. Parking this car here will make you regret it," I tried to persuade the driver as I held the car door open. I could not let him know I was lying; otherwise, that devil would come to drop me home to
★★★★Katherine"Well, Liz looked for me when she did not get through your number, then she found her car in front of a shop where...." Jacky said, "You know it."I exhaled a breath, giving him a slight nod before I asked, "Is Liz here?" My gaze flickered around the house, but I did not see her anywhere."She left Mom, in the evening as soon as a call came. She sounded worried while talking on the phone, but when I asked, she brushed it off and told me she would return soon," Liam answered, grabbing hold of my finger as if he was scared I would leave him again.Consequently, I wrapped my hand around his neck, keeping him close to make him feel secure, and I muttered, "Let me call her first.""She said one of her colleagues got sick because of his upset stomach. So she left," Jacky said. Simultaneously, my hand paused in my bag as I looked up to Jacky, saying, "Still, I should call her." I took the phone out of the bag, unlocking the phone. But before I could able to make a call, Jacky
★★★★Katherine"About what?" I asked Jacky, even though I knew what he was referring to. I watched him staring at me with a blank gaze as I waited for him to speak. Instead, he grabbed hold of my wrist and hauled me forward, leaving me confused."What are you doing, Jack?" I asked with a strong tone because I was not able to understand his intention.He pulled me right to the dining table and stopped right next to a chair. Letting go of my hand, he pulled the chair behind me and said, "Sit down first!""Oh, I am not in the mood to eat. Where is Juliana," I asked."I know," he replied and I raised my eyebrow, not getting what he meant, "I know, you have eaten before coming here."I looked at him with surprise trying to study if he was making guesses."Sit down, Kat," he said before I could ask him anything.I glanced to the side of the chair before sitting down. Jacky went over to the other chair on the opposite side of the table. He grabbed a bowl and opened the lid off it. At the ti
★★★★Katherine"I don't understand, Jack. Did you know anything about the insurance money," I asked, arching my brow up in curiosity, "You sound confident.""You forgot that your mails used to come to my mom's number after the accident happened with you," he said and I gave him the nod because it was me who changed the mail address with my aunt's. So she could take care of my account."After you vanished into thin air, a letter came from the bank, and I found out you took a loan- the amount was 1100 dollars," Jacky said in a casual tone, wiping his lips with the cloth."What?" My abrupt reaction startled him as he looked at me with confused Eyes."I did not take any loan ever. There must have been a mistake from the bank. You had not paid it, have you?" I asked."It was a warning letter after you failed to pay the EMI. It had been due for three months," Jacky said, "Don’t worry, I had paid it. I think you have forgotten about the loan, but it was definitely in your name, and there wer
