After getting out of his room, Kaya rushed to the hall where Jazlyn and Iris were waiting for her. She was more than late and she didn't even know what excuse she was going to give them for it, especially when Iris had already checked for her in her room. She would make him bald for making her late if they would suspect anything.Making different plans in her head to punish him, she entered the hall hurriedly and found Iris and Jazlyn discussing something. They both were about to leave but Kaya hurriedly strode towards them because she had already anticipated that they were concerned about her sudden disappearance and were about to look for her, but she stopped them on time.Hearing the sound of her bracelet and her footsteps, both Jazlyn and Iris snapped her head towards her direction."Kaya? Where were you?" Jazlyn rushed towards her. Iris followed her. They looked worried which made Kaya gulp."Where were you? Iris went to check for you in your room but you weren't there," Jazlyn u
"I would like to accompany you all today," Kaya looked at him, startled. Both Jazlyn and Iris were also peering at him after hearing his words."You want to come with us?" Jazlyn asked, bewildered. He nodded at her with a small smile before opening his mouth to answer."Yes, I want to because…" he paused and tilted his head to look at Kaya. Her eyes were already on him. He passed her a half grin."After Kaya is going to leave with you all, I am going to be completely alone here at home and Kaya knows how bored I feel when she leaves me alone," he uttered with no restraint. Kaya's heart had almost stopped beating by now. Did he just say all of this aloud to both Jazlyn and Iris? He had lost his mind. He did not even understand what he was doing there and how dangerous it could get if they found even a slight hint of the things going on between him and her. Her uncle Damien would lose it if he got to know about any of this from someone else."What?" Jazlyn's voice took Zian out of his
After leaving from the hall, they both were heading upstairs towards their respective rooms. Kaya was walking behind him with her slow and frightened steps. She was afraid of the consequences he was going to make her endure after the things Jazlyn said to him about her and Leo in the hall. He would surely chop her into tiny pieces this time once they were going to reach his room. Kaya gripped the front of her clothes and waited for him to snap back at her at any time because they had already reached outside his room. She watched him turn around. A fatal scowl was playing over his face, making him look more deadly and scary than he already was.She witnessed him clenching his jaw and raising his hand at her which made her immediately close her eyes in fear. She clenched her fists and waited for his hand or fist to hurt her but all she felt was his hand tenderly stroking her cheek. "I don't believe in hitting any woman, hitting my woman is not even a question," Kaya heard his raspy vo
"How much time are they going to take now to change their clothes?" Jazlyn uttered, annoyed. Iris didn't reply which made Jazlyn look at her. Jazlyn found that Iris was looking in some deep thoughts."Hey! What are you thinking?" She asked Iris, shrugging her shoulders. Iris snapped out of her thoughts and just shook her head."No, nothing important," she answered, but didn't buy Jazlyn."But…." Jazlyn stopped from further speaking, watching Zian entering the hall."Finally you're here, Mr Karlson" Jazlyn remarked, getting up from the sofa. Iris followed her. Zian passed them a tender nod while rolling up the sleeves of his black shirt which he had paired with denim pants. "We were waiting for you," Jazlyn said as Zian stood beside her but his eyes were trying to find that one specific person who was still not here yet."You just took so much time wearing pants and a shirt? You haven't even combed," Jazlyn looked at Zian's messed up hair in disbelief. He hadn't even combed his hair.
Leo was driving his car when his eyes caught Zian's car reflection following, in the side mirror of his car which made him sigh. Tilting his head, he looked at Kaya who was sitting on the passenger seat with her head tossed towards the glass window. She was looking completely silent. A lot of things had changed or in precise, he felt like he was seeing that Kaya in her when they both were just strangers, when his boss, Damien Karlson, had introduced her to him for the first time and told him to shield her as her shadow.After what Zian tried to do with Kaya 5 years ago, understanding the situation and for the sake of Kaya's safety, Damien chose his most trusted man, Leo, to protect Kaya from every kind of danger, especially when she was going to be away from home or away from Damien's presence, and as an obedient man of Damien, Leo followed his boss's order and from that day, he became Kaya's shadow. During their first encounters in the beginning, Leo used to feel that she looked ver
Kaya turned around and found him standing in front of her. First, she was startled to find him there inside that trail room. What was he doing there and when did he come inside? But then she remembered how evil he was and what he was capable of doing.Her stunned reaction turned into anger. Kaya narrowed her eyes at him but she found him just staring at her blankly. The emotion on his face at that moment was unreadable. Kaya passed him a displeased glance and then grabbed her dress. She decided to leave because now she was in no mood to try that new dress which Jazlyn had selected for her and neither she wanted to be with him in that place where anyone could catch them like this and it would create a huge mess if anyone saw them together in that trail room. She understood that he didn't care about his or his family's prestige because if he did then he wouldn't have done such a repulsive action of stalking her to this trial room where countless people were surrounding them and they co
Both Jazlyn and Iris were waiting for Kaya. It had been more than 10 minutes since she had gone to try on that dress which Jazlyn had selected for her but she still hadn't come back yet. "Where is this girl?" Jazlyn uttered, impatient. She looked at Iris and said. "You didn't find….." "She is here," Iris halted Jazlyn's words, watching Kaya finally coming back. Jazlyn turned around and saw Kaya walking towards them. "Where were you?" She asked Kaya immediately as she came closer to them. Before Kaya could answer, Jazlyn attacked her with another question. "Wait a minute. Why didn't you put on this dress?" She queried, gazing at Kaya's entire body where she found her still wearing her previous clothes. She was holding that new dress in her hand. "What happened? Why didn't you try it, Kaya?" Kaya sighed a heavy breath, hearing Jazlyn's questions. "I tried but the dress didn't fit me," she lied because she had no other way to escape from that situation. Jazlyn's eyebrows wiggl
"I had seen him getting out of that trial room where you were, Kaya," Iris didn't give her a chance to lie anymore. Kaya's eyes widened in shock."I know he was there with you inside that trial room and this morning, he was trying to hide you in his room from me," Iris told her the truth.Shock after shock. Kaya was stunned and startled. Her heart was pounding inside her chest in fear. Iris sighed by watching her terrified reaction.Iris extended her hand and clutched Kaya's wrist. She lifted Kaya's hand up and looked at those red finger prints on her wrist which had now slightly faded."Has he done it?" Iris asked, trailing her eyes upward towards Kaya's face. Her question brought tears to Kaya's eyes. She lowered her head and shook it and tried to lie again because she didn't want to make him lower in front of anyone, but this time, Iris caught her lie.Iris's gaze softened as she understood everything. She placed her palm over Kaya's face and made her look at her. Tears were gliste
