"Sir? Are you okay?" Kelvin asked his boss, as soon as he got into the car but got no response from him.

He immediately knew something was wrong. Having been with him for years, he knew something must have happened for Sorin to walk into the car and slam the door the way he did. He also didn't wait for the car door to be opened for him before he entered the car.

Getting no response from Sorin, he didn't want to ask too many questions so that he wouldn't anger him more.

Sorin's phone began to ring but the moment he saw the caller ID, he silenced the phone and looked away.

Kelvin peeped from the front seat and saw the caller too- It was Daisy.

"Sir, your phone has been ringing. Aren't you going to pick it, sir? Kelvin asked, concerned because the phone kept ringing but Sorin wouldn't budge.

Sorin raised his eyebrow and stared at Kelvin with utmost anger which made Kelvin look away immediately.

"Mind your business! If you know what is good for you, you'll drive this minute!" Sorin comma

    "Strange? What do you mean, Doctor?" Mum asked, not because she was concerned for my health but because she didn't want any of their plans disrupted."Is she going to die?" Dad asked the doctor which made the doctor turn to look at him in utter shock."What!?" The doctor almost screamed in shock."How could you say such things, sir." The doctor asked him. "If you're going to be this negative around my patient, please leave this room." The doctor added."We're so sorry Doctor, my husband was just worried for our daughter. It was just the wrong choice of words." Mum said, coming to the rescue once again."It's fine, I just do not like any negative utterances and actions around my patients, whether they are conscious or unconscious." The doctor explained further."I'm sorry, Doctor. It won't happen again." Dad said to the doctor."There's no problem." The Doctor replied after which, he picked up his stethoscope and checked my heart beat once again while my parents watched in anticipatio

    The Black, tinted Rolls-Royce, halted in front of The New Gen Hospital. Kelvin turned off the engine and called out to Sorin because he was far away, in his own world."Sir? We're here." He said to Sorin, which made him jerk about into reality.As he peeped outside through the car window, he began to wonder why they were at the hospital at that moment."And what are we doing here, Kelvin?" He asked Kelvin, raising his eyebrows in confusion."Mrs Zaveri is here, sir." He answered."Mrs Zaveri? What are you talking about, Kelvin?" Sorin questioned him further.Kelvin paused for a while as he began to think of what Sorin's reaction was going to be like when he finally told him that he brought him to the hospital to see me, his wife.He had thought Sorin heard him earlier, when he asked if they should come to the hospital to see her but it just dawned on him that Sorin didn't hear because he paid no attention at that moment but now that they had gotten to the hospital, he knew it was goin

    There's been a very serious car accident, sir." He was finally able to say after pausing for a while to catch his breath and compose himself."Who was involved? That girl?" He asked."I'm afraid… She isn't the one sir." He answered."Then who? And if she wasn't the one, why were you planning to kill us?" He asked him further."Mr and Mrs Zaveri, sir. Your parents." He finally said, after garnering a lot of courage."What!?" How come? How? Where? When? Both of them? Are they injured? Is it very bad?" He kept questioning Kelvin as he began to shake like a lone leaf on a stream of water."I'm yet to get the full information, sir but they are at the New Gen Hospital. Damn! I think they were the ones who were rushed into the hospital when we were leaving. I'm going to turn right back now." He kept talking but got no response."They'll be fine. I hope they will be fine." He kept reassuring Sorin."I can't lose them too. No way! Please stay alive for me. Don't leave me alone. Please." Sorin

    I heard rushed footsteps coming towards the door of my room and in the twinkling of an eye, different doctors and nurses walked into my room, in a single file. All of the doctors wore white coats over their blue scrubs and they had their stethoscopes with them while the nurses only wore light blue scrubs.Apparently, the Doctor who came to check me was the renowned Doctor Matthew Kent; the Chief Medical Director and the Head of all the other doctors in the Hospital. Little wonder why they all came in their numbers immediately he called. He was also the most skilled surgeon in the hospital and mostly attended to patients in the VIP rooms. It was like he was created just for the main purpose of being a surgeon because he didn't have to stress too much, all he had to do was check the patients' files, check the patients' symptoms and give a diagnosis and after various tests were carried out on such patients, he was always correct and the others felt he was too proud. This made him also g

    Anne sat on the edge of the small bed in her small room, she felt uneasy, it was like something was wrong but she could not figure it out yet. She had just gotten back from work and she was tired but the way she was feeling, overshadowed the tiredness. She began to bite her nails and tap her feet continuously on the rug in her room, while the fingers on her other hand kept tapping her knee at the same time. This, she always did whenever she was anxious and needed to figure her thoughts out."Why do I feel so uneasy?" She asked herself, as she began to drown herself in different thoughts.Anne Jones; my best friend, we met in college and we were roommates, well, that was before I dropped out of college since my parents could no longer sponsor my education and they ordered me to stop, due to reasons best known to them. They claimed they had no money anymore but I knew that was all a lie, they just had other plans up their sleeves. Anne was not from a wealthy family but they were comfor

    Missing? What do you mean she is missing?" Kelvin questioned."Have you gone nuts!? He said, angrily raising his voice, making the few patients that were present look at him in a weird way.He immediately realised and remembered that he was still in the hospital and so he held the phone away from his ear and quickly walked out. He found his way into the garden in the hospital premises but far away from the wards.As soon as he was away from the piercing eyes of the people around him, he continued his conversation on the phone."What nonsense are you saying? Are you saying you can't do a freaking minor job!?" Kelvin furiously asked."I'm sorry, sir. I don't know how it happened." Paul, one of Sorin's many guards, responded to his superior, Kelvin."How can you say you don't know how it happened? Where were you?" Kelvin asked him further."I was in the hospital, sir." Paul responded."So she disappeared or grew wings and flew away." Kelvin asked."You were supposed to keep an eye on her

    It was a warm summer evening, and the sun had just set, leaving the sky bathed in a warm orange glow. John Richardson sat on the chair and stared at the large wall clock in his study.The study was a vast, elegant space with high ceilings, big windows, and furniture that was designed specifically for it. It had a large fireplace, beautiful chandeliers, and detailed mouldings. The walls were adorned with priceless artwork, antique maps, and rare books.At one end of the study, there was a well-stocked bar, complete with premium liquors, vintage wines, and rare whiskies, including the red wine belonging to the Zaveris company. Also, there was a humidor stocked with the finest, priciest and rarest cigars.And at the other end of the study, there was a private library, with shelves lined with leather-bound books and first editions. The collection of books ranged from classic literature to modern business books and biographies of other successful people.The massive desk, which was crafte

    The elevator was a few floors away from the ground floor when it stopped to pick up some other people and at that moment my heart began to beat faster than normal. I was scared that my cover would be blown and I might be caught by one of Sorin's guards since they always worked undercover and they were always anywhere he was. Since I had seen one of them upstairs, I knew that there would definitely be more of them around the hospital but I was hoping not to run into any one.As the doors opened, I pulled my hood over my head once again, while using my hand to hold it over my face to prevent my face from being seen. A few medical workers walked in and thankfully, they paid me no mind. They immediately continued gisting as soon as they got in and the doors closed. I guess they had been discussing right before they got in and so, decided to continue with their discussion like I was invisible."Jane, have you heard?" One of them, who I found out was Sarah, asked."Heard what?" Jane respon

    The next morning I slowly opened my eyes to the warm brightness of morning light shining in through the window. The melodic chirping of birds outside filled the air, and I stretched, yawning loudly. But as my jaw cracked open wide, I remembered that I wasn't alone in the room. I quickly slapped my hand over my mouth, because I knew how much Sorin hated disturbances, and I had no intention of testing his patience.I immediately turned to his side of the bed to see his reaction, but to my surprise, he was nowhere in sight.“Where could he have gone?” I thought to myself.I wasn't sure if he had headed to the office or he was in his study, because it was one of those types of days where he would decide to stay in his study throughout the day.“Sorin?” I called out to him, hoping to get a response, even though I knew it was highly unlikely.As expected, I got no response and I wasn't too surprised. I got up and headed to the bathroom. The door was wide open and so, I knew he definitely wa

    I heard Sorin's footsteps rushing out of the room, and heading towards me. I knew he must have heard the noise.Getting to where I was, and seeing that it was one of his favorite picture frames I had broken, he couldn't believe his eyes. “What the hell is this?” He yelled at me. “What exactly is wrong with you? Why are you such a clumsy girl? Why can't you just do anything right without causing chaos?”“I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to.” I immediately apologized.“That's what you always say. Yet you’ll do the same thing tomorrow.” He hissed in frustration.“I'm sorry…” I said again and crouched to the ground once again. “And what the hell do you think you're doing?” He asked, his eyebrows furrowed.“I want to clean it up right away.” I answered, trying to pick the broken pieces.My eyes remained fixed on him as I spoke to him to the point where I forgot what I was doing. And before he could warn me, I felt a sharp pain shoot through my already injured fingers.“Ouch!” I yelped, instin

    Taken aback, I instantly stepped back. Tongue tied and speechless, I stood there staring at him in confusion.“Have you suddenly gone deaf?” He yelled at me again. “I just asked you a question. What the hell do you think you're doing, hugging me like that? Since when did we get so affectionate? Huh?”I was completely confused and for a moment, I didn't understand what was going on. This was someone with whom we had a very beautiful time hours before, but it seemed like he had become someone else in just a matter of hours. Like he had become a completely different person.Finally able to find my voice, I began to speak, “I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you. I thought we were already getting along. I thought that we—”“You thought wrong!” He barked, and I shook with fear.“Or wait, let me get this straight. Is it because we went out together and the whole world now knows that you're a “WIFE” to me?” He stressed the word “wife” in such an uncomfortable manner, and I could see the irr

    Sorin pulled up at the parking lot of one of the Cole’s detached mansions in a private estate. Daisy had sent him the details of her whereabouts earlier and asked him to meet with her there. Despite the fact that it was many miles away from the city, he still drove all the way down to meet her.He turned off the ignition, took a deep breath and stepped out of the car.“Welcome sir,” He was greeted by one of Daisy's guards.Sorin nodded in acknowledgement, and asked, “Where is she?”“She is inside. She is waiting for you in the living room.“Thank you.” He responded, and walked in briskly.Staring outside through the gigantic glass door, holding a cup of wine in her right hand, and folding her left hand against her chest, was Daisy.The moment she sensed Sorin's presence, she scoffed.“You said you wanted to see me and that it was urgent. What's up?” Sorin said, standing metres away from her.She remained in that same spot, saying nothing, making the both of them remain in an awkward s

    “Somewhere quiet?” I asked, still surprised.“Yes, that's correct.” He responded with a smile.“Uhmm… I thought that—”“Nah…” He gently interrupted me. He then leaned forward, his eyes staring deep into mine, making my heart tighten in my chest. “You don't have to think about anything. Just follow my lead.”As I looked at him, my eyes fell on his lips once again. The soft curve of his lips as he smiled did something I couldn't explain to me. I could feel his warm breath on my skin and this also sent shivers down my spine. The air around us felt charged with tension.Every sound seemed amplified - the soft batting of his eyelids, the gentle rhythm of his breathing. Everything seemed to possess its own loud sound. Time also seemed to stop completely, and I felt like I was holding my breath, waiting for something to happen.In that moment, everything else faded into the background, and all I could focus on was him. It was like it was just us two in the whole world. I felt drawn to him,

    Sorin was speechless. He just stared at Daisy without knowing what to say. Never in his wildest dreams did he think that she would show up all of a sudden, without informing him beforehand.He helplessly stared at her, wishing he could do something before she began to spew the wrong words, which would complicate matters further.He knew better than to scold her because that would cause a scene, and with the amount of reporters and cameras in their faces, that would be the craziest and most stupidest idea.I, on the other hand, stood there without knowing what to say. I was definitely confused. It was only a matter of minutes before Daisy let the cat out of the bag about her relationship with Sorin.“Hi Sorin.” She greeted him with a broad smile.“Daisy…” Sorin spoke nervously. “I didn't know you were coming. I mean, you didn't tell me you were coming. I didn't expect to see you here.” He said it all in a rush.“I know.” She still had her smile on. “I wanted to surprise you. I hope you

    ZAS HOLDINGS “Good morning, everyone.” Anne happily greeted everyone as she walked into the office, but she got no response, which was very unusual.Her eyes scanned the room, and she soon noticed her colleagues, gathered together at a table, focused on something on another colleague's computer.“What are you guys so focused on?” She asked, loudly.“Shhhhh….” They all gestured for her to be quiet, and she held her breath.“What is going on?” She whispered to Isabella, who was also in the room.Isabella pulled her to the other side of the room. “Haven't you heard?” Anne furrowed her brows in confusion. “Heard what?”“Heard the latest news.” Isabella answered.“I'm not sure of what you're talking about. What is the latest news?” Anne asked further, looking confused still.“The latest news about Sorin Zaveri.” Isabella said, sharply. “How do you not know? Have you been living under a rock?” She rolled her eyes at her.“I'm sorry, but when it comes to social media. I'm not really curren

    Her question was a bit over the edge. I was sure it threw Sorin off balance but thankfully he was quick to compose himself. Sorin’s expression remained neutral, but a hint of annoyance was evident in his eyes. “I'm not sure where you're getting your information from,” he said as calmly as possible, “but I can assure you that my marriage to Andrea is not 'troubled’ like you said. Compared to other marriages, we're still in the early stages of our relationship, and like any couple, we're navigating the usual challenges of building a life together.”He paused for a moment, his gaze sweeping the room to see the reactions of the other reporters before returning to the reporter who asked the question. "As for the ‘circumstances surrounding our marriage,’ I think it's unfair to speculate about our personal lives without having all the facts. Andrea and I are committed to making our marriage work, and we're not going to let rumors or speculation dictate or ruin our marriage.” My eyes remain

    The day picked for the press conference arrived quicker than we all expected. And on that day, the room was filled to the brim with different reporters because every major news outlet had made sure that they sent their top and best reporters to drill Sorin about the recent scandal.The room was filled with anticipation, the air was thick, and the hums of their continuous whispered conversations filled the air, and could be heard from outside.My brows were furrowed and my face was contorted with fear of uncertainty. This was the very first time in my entire life that I would be attending a press conference, and this wasn't any kind of press conference because we were going to be the center of attention and I didn't think I was ready for it.Noticing my expression, Sorin turned to me and said, “Just calm down. You don't have to say anything. I will do all the talking. Just follow my lead.”I sighed and nodded slowly.“Sir, it's almost time. The press conference is supposed to begin any
