The rest of the time disappeared into thin air.I was observing my sister's personality through the videos.I observed her movements, style, and discipline.Her discipline was incredible, regardless of other qualities.I cannot bowl my head in front of anyone.I cannot smile like her, even though I dislike that person.Victoria is kind, just like my mother, and a carbon copy of her.I rolled my eyes as my gaze was drawn to the prince's beauty.Julian sleeps soundly with his pouty lips.He does not seem to have slept well.He must be working very hard. His hair was flying across his brow, brushing against them.He had removed his suit and was now dressed in a white full-sleeve shirt that fit snugly around his biceps.His chest rose and fell as he breathed, revealing his broad chest and tempting me to bite my lips.I could not help but bite my lip while admiring his chiselled chest and biceps.He is incredibly broad and exquisitely sculpted, from his chiseled raw to his ripping muscles
~Merry POV~ "Hello, Julian!" Lyra waved at Julian while the beautician was painting her nails.I looked at Julian, who forced a smile on his lips and waved his hand back at her. The beautician finished her job; however, Lyra approached Julian while hugging him. "It has been a long time since we have met; have you been well?" She inquired while breaking the hug. "I am fit and hot as ever!" "You look more beautiful than ever!" Julian tilted his head and slipped his hand into the pocket.I scoffed, looking back and forth between Julian and Lyra—does he just flirt with her? "Oh come on!" Lyra blushed while slapping her hand on his chest, but when her gaze landed on me, her expression darkened. "Why are you back?" She rolled her eyes, and there was dissatisfaction in seeing me—I mean, my sister's aura—return home. "I will see you later, sweetheart!" She tapped her fingers on Julian's cheek and gave me a disgusting look before exiting the room. "Hello, Jul
~MERRY POV~ "You are finally at home." "Now you have to be more careful—everyone is watching you!" "One suspicious behaviour of yours will ruin our plan, so pay attention!" Julian said everything with a single breath. "Victoria is a calm girl; please play her role well." He moved his finger while saying the words. "Do not lose your cool, since you are a short-tempered girl!" His mouth dropped open, letting out a sigh. "Are you making fun of me at this moment?" I glared at him and rested my hands on my waistline. "No, I am just alerting you!" He titled his head "I know you despise Lyra very much and you could barely control your rage while watching her in front of you!" He said while punching his ear.On the other hand, I pouted my lips and looked at him—he was absolutely right. "I want you to keep your feelings and anger under control in the meantime. " "If I ever get the impression that you prioritize your own feelings, I will send you
~Merry POV~When he leaned close to my lips, my heart skipped a beat.Don't tell me, he is going to kiss me! He tilted his head close to my lips, and I couldn't help but close my eyes, waiting for his lips to touch mine.Why is he spending so much time kissing? I blinked my eyes as soon as I felt my cheeks warm up, and my lips shivered.I opened my eyes because I couldn't stand the heat on my body.As soon as he placed the black color dot behind my ear with the eyeliner pencil, a smile appeared on my lips—he was making eye contact with me at the same time.I knew it was a protective sign. "This black dot will shield you from all evil sights!" He whispered in my ear and looked into my eyes. "Let's go, your grandfather is back!" He took a step back, setting the eyeliner pencil on the table, and then placed his hand inside the pocket.Okay, time to meet my grandfather, Aiden! "Do I look like Victoria?" I inquired, resting one hand on the waist. "Yes, more than I imag
~MERRY POV~Julian's voice interrupted my thoughts. "What is on your mind?" He inquired, making me look at him. "I am wondering if I am doing the right thing!" I responded. "What are you talking about?" He asked, perplexed, and placed his coffee cup on the table. "My father sincerely wanted Victoria to marry you—someone who would love her and look after her for the rest of her life!" "But I am not Victoria!" I let a groan out. "Watch your tongue!" He raised his voice, and I looked at him with wide eyes. "There are ears on the walls in this house!" He added. Then he rolled his eyes at the men standing in the corners, protecting the house from every angle. "Everyone in this house is your grandfather's man, so think before you speak!" He warned me.I couldn't help but stare at him without blinking my eyes. "Don't say that you are not Victoria!" He whispered into my ear, and I looked at him. "I am sorry!" I muttered, biting my lip, and he
"What!" Before I could say anything, a tight slap on my cheeks caused me to freeze in place.My eyes widened, and I turned to face Lyra as the sound of a slap rang in my ears.I placed my hand on my cheek, staring at Lyra with wide eyes, and my cheek began to heat up like a burning stove.I had absolutely no idea what had just happened. "Do you want me to kill?" She yelled at the top of her lungs as she tightened her grip on my shoulder, shaking me up. "After hanging out with Julian, have you started to think of yourself as a queen?" She grabbed my shoulders and pushed me hard while making me take five steps back "Don't forget about your place!" She aimed her fingers at her toes. "This is your place, right under my feet!" She clicked her tongueI let out a sigh in response and clenched my fist as soon as my blood started to boil in rage. "What is going on here?" A husky voice echoed throughout the room before a tall figure stepped between me and Lyra, st
~MERRY POV~My eyes widened the moment his lips touched mine. I blinked twice before making eye contact with him. He sucked my lower lip like ice cream, causing me to close my eyes for a brief moment of pleasure.His tongue was sweeping into my mouth through my parted lips, and it sent shivers down my spine. He rolled his fingers against my cheek and sucked my upper-bottom lip. I felt a jolt of electricity jerk my body while clenching my nipples tight, transforming my hormones into desires.His tongue was dipping into my lower lip, flicking it lightly, and that simple action sent a new wave of pleasure through me. I can feel the crackling atmosphere and sizzling energy filled with sexual tension in the air.He began sucking my lower lip repeatedly while tilting his head for easier access to eat me up. The juices inside my vagina began to roll with each stroke.I couldn't help but rub my fingers against his chest before wrapping my hand around his neck.On the other hand, he grabb
~MERRY POV~ "You guys, what?" My grandfather exited the swing before approaching us.When Julian gave me a look, I noticed an infuriating smirk around the corner of his lips. "Yes, we are ready to marry!" Julian spoke, his body straightening with authority. "Really?" My father mumbled, and I looked at him—his eyes were bright, and he was happy.Julian nodded his head while answering my father with a gesture. "This is called a smart decision!" My grandfather laughed and clapped his hands. "You both are smart and understand how to build a strong future." My grandfather alternated between looking at Julian and me.He might think that we agreed to marry for fortune and power.My dear grandfather, you are mistaken! "I am very proud of you both!" My grandfather approached and hugged us before taking us into his arms. "Kareem, you heard?" My grandfather said this to his secretary while breaking the hug. "Yes, sir!" Kareem forced a smile on his lips and bo
~MERRY POV~ "Then, die!" David gritted his teeth and loaded the gun. "No, David!" I extended my hand to stop him when a bullet sound filled the air making me close my eyes.No, I don't want anyone to die! Changing the fate of someone always gives consequences A tear escaped from my mouth with a thought: David shot my mother, and I lost her. "Aah!" As soon as David's scream echoed into my ears, I opened my eyes.The bullet hit David's hand while making him throw the gun. "YOU SON OF BITCH!" Oh my god, it's Julian—he shot David. Julian threw the gun on the floor while stepping close to David and punching his head against him.Oh my god, it was so hard! "Aahh!" David groaned in pain while grabbing his head before he raised his hand to punch Julian and defend himself.But Julian is in a full-fire mood; his face turned red as if his blood was boiling in rage. On the other hand, Julian's guards pushed David's men while pointing the guns at them before knocki
~MERRY POV~I came to a stop, opened the door, and exited while closing it behind me.I sighed as I scanned the tall building from top to bottom, thinking, "I came here without any safety."Jesus, help me—while praying, I began running inside as quickly as I could.As soon as I stepped inside, my eyes were drawn to the clock—11.02 p.m. Oh my god, I was two minutes late. I walked in while looking for my grandfather inside the house.I let out a sigh as soon as I saw him in the hallway.There is a milk glass in his hand. The milk finished half of the glass. "OH NO!" I ran to him while reaching close to him before throwing the glass from his hand. "What the!" Mr. Aiden sounded while watching the glass break into pieces, spreading the milk on the floor. "What are you doing here?" David screamed at the top of his lungs from behind, spreading his deep voice throughout the hallway. "Did you drink half of the milk?" I inquired. "You seriously came here to ask about milk?"
~MERRY POV~I came to Knight Mansion with my family. On the way home, we stopped at the hospital to get my father's wound treated properly.Fortunately, the cut was not deep, and his shoulder was fine; he only needed a few exercises and rest to heal.Julian already called Olivia and told her to arrange rooms with good equipment to sleep well.Olivia is now walking with my family to show them their respective rooms. On the other hand, my mother and Victoria help my father to walk with their support.I sat down on the couch, grabbing my head. "It was a long day." I couldn't stop sighing. "Indeed, it was big!" Julian placed his hand in his pocket as I leaned down on the couch layer.We planned a wonderful meeting for my parents. However, David had a different plan for us. "Get up!" Julian sounded. "What?" I shared a look with Julian. "Get up!" Julian moved his index finger. "No, Julian. I have no energy; give me a break—we will talk later." "Don't be lazy,
~THIRD POV~As soon as the officer turned to Noah. Julian, Merry, Victoria, and Justin entered, shielding Noah with their presence.Mr. Aiden looked at his children with a frustrated expression. In contrast, David rolled his eyes. "You are not allowed to arrest her!" Justin approached the officer. "Who the hell are you to stop them?" Mr. Aiden inquired as he knew nothing about Justin. "I am the cop." Justin sounded very proud of his position as he turned to face Mr. Aiden for the first time. "I have recorded his confession." Justin took out his phone and played a video of Rocky confessing David's name. Rocky shared a look with David—he winked at him while telling Rocky to continue his act. "I told you, she paid me to do it!" Rocky pointed his finger at Noah. "Shut up, piece of sh*t!" Justin grabbed Rocky by the collar and clicked his tongue before pushing him away 5-6 steps. "Hello, Mr. Justin!" The officer gave a call. "Officer, I want to say, the pe
~THIRD POV~ "Yes, I was the one who planned all these!" Mr. Aiden's scream echoed back in the hallway while making every one of the people look at him. Noah let out a sigh while seeing Mr. Aiden expose the truth from his end.Finally, the characterless and cheater tag took off her.It feels like the heavy weight was removed from her soul.She feels so relaxed.A happy tear rolled down on her cheek.On the other hand, Harry stepped back as soon as Aiden agreed—he had planned everything to separate from him.Harry hoped every second on the way home everyone misunderstood his father.He had prayed for his father to say— he never hurt Noah, and he was not the reason behind their separation.But watching his father confess everything, breaks him down "Why?" My father sounded so heartbroken while a single tear dropped down on his cheek.Merry lowered her eyes while unable to watch her father cry and break apart.She knew this time would come one day to face off everything.On the
~THIRD PERSON POV~ "WHO ARE YOU?" Harry was shocked while watching Rocky point out his gun at them through the outside window.Rocky always keeps the spare weapon. He left over the snipper on the rooftop and now targeted Victoria and her family with his small gun while pulling it from his pocket. In the meantime, Merry got out of the car while hitting Rocky with the door on his head. "Fuck!" When Rocky groaned while grabbing Merry jumped in the air with the support of the door while kicking her leg on his chest. "MERRY, watch!" Harry panicked while watching Merry fight alone with Rocky—who was looking like a bad man. "Merry!" When Noah tried to come out of the car, Merry interrupted while covering the car with her body. "Mom, relax. You sent me to boxing and mixed martial arts—I mastered them." "I am very flexible to fight and smash my competitor!" Merry revealed the information, and Harry looked at Noah. "You sent her to professional fighting?" Harry l
~THIRD PERSON POV~Merry noticed a red dot on Harry's white shirt."NO WAY—DAD, DOWN!" Merry tried to push Harry, but the bullet touched his shoulder before letting out. "Aah!" Harry was knocked down on the ground while screaming in pain. "Harry!" Noah yelled at the top of her lungs. "Dad!" Victoria looked at everything with wide eyes.Noah, Merry, and Victoria ran to him while sitting on their knees and checking on Harry.The blood is bleeding from Harry's shoulders.The bullet touched aside the corner of his shoulder before letting it out—it didn't cut deep but gave enough pain. "Are you okay?" Noah sounded concerned while keeping her hand on Harry's shoulder, trying to stop the bleeding. Harry looked into her eyes—his eyes softened for her as he nodded his head in response. Victoria couldn't help but cry while watching her father hurt. Merry's heart also started to ache in pain while watching Harry groan in pain. "I need a first-aid kit to treat him." Noa
~THIRD PERSON POV~ "Where is my daughter?" As soon as Harry inquired, she looked into his eyes. His eyes darkened in rage, but Noah let out a fearful sight.She doesn't want this to happen! "C'mon, fight with it, Mom!" Merry opened the window and watched her parents—she could hear them. The car was parked just a bit of a distance from them. "Where is my daughter, Noah?" Harry sounded so serious, but Noah decided to shut her mouth—she didn't say a word. "I am asking you something, damnit?" Harry yelled out loud, and Noah closed her eyes for a second. "Don't shut your damn mouth; open it and speak up!" "Where is my daughter, Merry?" "I've stayed away enough from her; now I want my daughter back. Do you understand?" Harry poked Noah with his index finger. "What do you want to ask while seeing me after all these years?" Noah asked him back while breaking the silence from her end—she sounded so emotional. Her heart started to ache with a thought; he didn't
~Third Person POV~ "Your dream came true!" Julian muttered, and Merry couldn't help but smile while nodding her head and watching her parents.Noah and Harry, on the other hand, are making eye contact.Their eyes were full of love and concern.The memories of their time together began to play out in front of them.The memories of their cuddling, love, care, and fun began to play out before their eyes like a movie.They can not believe their eyes when they finally meet after decades apart."It has been so many years, but nothing has changed about her—she is still so beautiful!" Harry muttered inside his head as he stared at Noah."He has not changed a bit; he looks so young and handsome!" Noah smiled as she mumbled to herself."So, what do you think?" Victoria wrapped Merry's hand as she looked at her parents. "Dad, lost in our mother's beauty.” Victoria couldn’t help but laugh."So, Mom does!" Merry responded with a smile on her lips."I told you that they both still love each ot
