Nicholas took a deep breath seeing the scene unfolding in front of his eyes. Never in his wildest dreams did he ever imagine getting stuck in a scene like this? Once she was naked from the top, she began unbuttoning her pants. She was having little trouble doing so but in the end, she tugged at her pants and removed them too. He saw the woman lying on his bed like a nymph, merely wearing red panties. However, it wasn't her alluring naked body that caught his attention but the constellation of freckles covering her entire back and shoulders. He acted on his instincts. He made her face him and palmed her breasts to notice a mole under the left one just like he remembered. Thinking that it might be a coincidence, he began looking for other moles that he recalled. He found all of those moles on Roseanne's body. He stood there, struck by a whirlwind of emotions, as the realization sank in. The woman before him wasn't just any stranger; she was Anne Rose, the one he had loved and lost. She
Nicholas stood on the bridge, his gaze fixed on Sabrina conversing with the artists, but his thoughts were elsewhere. Anne Rose lingered in his mind, the woman he had spent the previous night with. The woman was his wife and died five years ago. The woman who was supposedly alive. As happiness brings, it also raises a lot of questions in his mind. The noise of those questions was so deafening that he left her alone in the room and came with Sabrina to this village to find some silence. Here he got the space and opportunity to be with his thoughts as neither the image of Anne Rose was there to distract him nor Sabrina was firing questions at him. When he woke up this morning, Anne Rose was still sleeping. For a long time, he believed that finding Anne Rose was a part of his never-ending dream that he saw almost every night but when he studied her naked figure again this morning, he realized that it wasn't a dream and she was really alive and was living as Roseanne. How could he not r
It was in the evening that Sabrina and Nicholas reached the hotel. When he opened the door to his room, he saw Roseanne sitting on the bed, wearing her clothes. She was sitting with her arms crossed over her chest. As he opened the door and walked inside, she threw the first thing she grabbed from the nightstand at him. “Woah,” Nicholas reacted as he grabbed it before it touched his eye. “It could have hurt my eye if you weren't careful,”Nicholas said, looking at her. She looked as if she would touch him into ashes. She was so angry that her blue eyes were burning with rage. Those eyes could kill anyone. “Too bad that I aimed it at your eye, ”Roseanne growled. She wanted to kill him and take revenge for her lost honour. Why did he have to come to her life again and ruin it? Nothing good comes after meeting this man. He ruined it eight years ago and he was doing it again. Nicholas asked her, “May I know what I did to receive such precious treatment.”His question added more to tha
Sabrina bolted out of the door, unable to hold a conversation with Roseanne who had lost her senses. As angry as she was, she understood that Roseanne was acting like a crazy bitch. She went to find Nicholas who was having a drink in the bar. “You look angry,” Nicholas commented as she took a seat next to him and poured a glass for herself from his bottle. “That slut you slept with last night called me a homewrecker,” Sabrina said, angrily. “Don't call her that,” Nicholas said. “And don't disturb her.”He would not let anyone call his wife with such names. “She has lost her senses,” Sabrina said. “She is acting like a crazy bitch.”Nicholas said, “That's why don't disturb her.”“I will kill her—”Nicholas told her, “Sabrina, leave her alone. She is not in the right state of mind at this time. Imagine, sleeping with a man you hate the most in a drunk state. She can't handle this fact. She wants to kill everyone who is coming in front of her. You just saw a teaser. If you disturb he
“We need to talk,” Nicholas said to Roseanne when he saw her the next time. He decided to give her time at the expense of his comfort and peace. He gave her an entire day but she didn't try to make any contact with him. Sabrina left this morning without him. She didn't even ask him if he would leave with her. It was not like he would have left with her when the key to his life existed here in Rosegarden. He knew that Sabrina was angry at him. He decided to console her later and focus on his wife first. Roseanne looked at him hatefully and said, “We do not have anything to talk about.”For the whole day, she blocked every way he would have any contact with her. She hated the very existence of this man and wanted nothing to do with him. “We sure do,” Nicholas told her. “You can take all the time that you want but I want to talk to you. Give me a place and time, I will be there.”“Fuck you, Hart,” Roseanne yelled. “I want nothing to do with you.”“I know why you are avoiding me,” Nich
Back in USA,Ellora Hart found out that Sabrina had come home. Nicholas was still in Italy and he had no plans of coming back soon. She invited Sabrina for a tea today to know the recent happenings of her son's life. Nicholas kept his family away from his business. Nobody could force him to do anything they wanted. “Thank you for having me over, ”Sabrina said with a smile. Although she was mad at Nicholas for not even bothering to ask about her, she didn't decline Ellora for tea. She liked being close to Nicholas' family since she had known them since she was a young girl. “How are you doing?” Ellora asked with a smile. It had been quite a while that she had the company of a youngster. “I am doing good,” Sabrina smiled. Of course, she didn't show on face how much Nicholas had hurt her. “I heard your fashion show was a success,”Ellora said. “I saw the video and pictures. It was beautiful.”She also saw the videos when the internet was shipping Sabrina and Nicholas as a couple but d
When Ellora came from outside, she saw a servant taking out the big family portrait that used to be hung in the living room. A sense of Deja Vu happened to her as she ran to the servant and asked, “What are you doing?”Sabrina left a few minutes ago and her husband made it awkward by adding how he was seeing their son as a potential son-in-law for the Taylor family. The Hart family was at the top of the chain. They did not need a marriage alliance. After Anne's death, Nicholas was heartbroken. At least, now he should not be forced to marry any woman. It did not matter if Sabrina and Nicholas had something in the past. If they were supposed to marry each other, they would have married in the past. She did not want to force Nicholas or even Emery to marry against their wishes. She had learnt her lesson from Nicholas' first marriage. There was no need to try to set up Sabrina and Nicholas. It wasn't about Sabrina but any girl Nikolai was trying to push into her son's life. She had a
Ellora came out from the airport, the sun casting a golden glow over the bustling scene. With a graceful and stylish flick, she removed her shades while revealing her eyes alive with anticipation. As she studied the trail of cars parked outside, a gentle smile graced her lips. None of the figures walking around were there for her, and in that moment, she felt an unexpected rush of freedom. For Ellora, the absence of familiar faces was a welcome sign of liberation. The tedious routine of being followed by a line of servants had dimmed her spirit. She rediscovered the peace and refreshment of working for herself as she found freedom in the simplicity of life i.e. working for herself. The constant presence of others catering to her every need had become monotonous for her. It was hard to be free and herself while being a fine woman and wife of Nikolai Hart. It seemed as if she had spent the last four decades of her life being a wife of Nikolai Hart only and forgot to be herself. As sh
