When Helena reached home Liam was doing homework in his room. Helena decided to spend some time with him and give him a gift which she brought for him today. She knew he had his dinner already with Antonio. Jenny told her so, Helena was glad that Evan's house staff was so good with Liam. A Lot of her tension ended ever since she came to live here. Liam having food on time, him fights with his friends and all. Jenny always made sure that Liam was fed properly. Antonio was his playmate and when he was not available, his guards played with him. “Hello, Son. Tough questions?” She asked, pointing at the notebook he was trying to solve maths problems on. Liam put his pencil on the notebook and turned to his mother. “Mom, You came home?”“Yes. I know I got a little late. But there was a lot of work in the office today. You had dinner right? Antonio told me but if you are still hungry we can have some light snacks.” Helena ruffled his hair. Liam shook his head. “No, I am full. Have you
Evan felt the dark silence as He entered his room. Ever since his fake fiancèe who He wants to keep with him forever started sharing his room, her mood swings reflect the energy of the room. Like today, He knew she was disturbed about something. He was glad He had dinner outside because the kind of energy He was feeling, He would have to go hungry while trying to know the reason behind it. Now He was getting why his Compagno sometimes became frustrated. It's not easy to stay with a woman. A single woman has more emotions than the height of Mount Everest. You try to solve one mood she would slip into another with the change of the second.Taking off his coat and unbuttoning the first two buttons of his shirt, he loosened the knot of his tie to relax his muscles. He went in search of Helena to the balcony of his room. It was her favourite thinking spot in his room. Right with his guess, he found her staring at the moonlit sky. The soft breeze played with her beautiful long hair.H
“You are disturbed, son?” Antonio said as he came to stand beside Evan when found his office light on. He was talking to someone on the phone but ended the call and immediately came to check on the reason why his godson was awake this late at night. Evan pocketed his hands and turned to his Godfather. “You have not changed a bit Antonio. You still could read my thoughts like an open book,” he said with a small smile. Antonio smiled too, “Yes, and I can also see the hidden sadness in your eyes, Evan. We don't share blood but I have raised you like my own son. I gave up my empire to save you, so yes my precious child. I can still read you like an open book.”Evan let out a heavy breath and pinched the bridge of his nose. Tonight his thoughts and emotions took him back in time. In the darkest time of his life where survival was the most important thing for him. Antonio was not lying when he said that he gave up his empire for his protection. He did. “Why?” Evan asked as he looked int
In the morning, Evan went to Liam’s room to talk to him. Liam was all dressed in his school uniform. But was struggling to tie his shoelaces. Smiling, he strode further into the room and kneeled to his level and took the shoelaces from him and tied them firmly. “Do you struggle with them daily?” He asked after he was done. Liam was stunned to see Evan in his room early in the morning. His question made him frown, “No. I don't. I know how to tie shoelaces perfectly.”Evan chuckled and nodded. He could see the child was lying to save his pride. “Is that so?” Evan asked challengingly. “because I think you are still in the learning process.”“You think wrong,” there was a kind of rudeness in Liam's voice today. He has never talked to him like this before. Never. Evan wondered what could be the reason behind this rudeness. He would come to that but first he needed to ease his anger regarding his father so that Helena’s tension could be eased. “fine. You won now come and sit here. I want
Nancy Rossi stepped out of her luxurious car and stared shead at the school with a bright smile. Today was the day she will see her grandson, Liam. Her blood! She arranged the best ever experience for her grandson he was going to have today. Meeting his blood family and winning this competition. So she asked her staff and the school head to organise everything extravagantly only for her son. She even volunteered herself to sponsor the whole program. Elijah too stopped beside her, setting his blazer and asking his mother, “Mom, everything will be fine, right? Liam will be happy to see me!” “Of course, Son. Liam will be happy to see his father. But make sure not to hurt your Injuries further. Doctor had mentioned you needed rest another week but just for your love for your son, I brought you here.” Nancy nodded at him. Elijah rolled his eyes. “Mom, please stop it now. I Am not a kid. I'm a father now. Father of a six year old kid. Shall we go.” He sighed at her overprotectiveness.
Helena glared at her silently as the woman dared to ask and Helena couldn't hold herself but snatch her son from her hold. “I Am here with my son, Mrs Rossi. I will participate in the competition.” Nancy straightened up gracefully and sharpened her eyes at Helena. Mr Gilbert awkwardly looked back and forth at both of them. “But this competition is to celebrate Father’s day also, Ms Perez. You can't fill the father figure unfortunately!” Helena snapped her head hearing another voice and looked at Elijah walking to them with pride in his eyes. But his gaze was not on her but on his son who also looked at Elijah with a deep frown. “Elijah..” Helena’s blood boiled, realising their ugly scheme finally. Her body trembling uncontrollably with the rage trying to burst out and kill that bastard then and there. “Ah.. Mom, you are hurting me.” Liam winced as she gripped his hand. Helena gasped and immediately crouched down to her son’s level. “Liam. I'm sorry son. Are you hurt.” She inspec
Elijah opened his eyes and pulled her closer. “You will regret this. Helena. If I can't have you, nobody can…” saying this he tried to slam his lips onto her mouth, trying to kiss her. Helena snapped her head to the other side, not letting his ugly touch on her mouth. “You bastard, leave me!” She screamed. But like he had gone mad, Elijah tried to kiss her forcefully. Helena pushed her with all her might and slapped across his cheek hard. His body split into pain shots with her hard push. “Don't you dare to touch me, Youbastard. Spit your lunacy to others or your mother, I have no interest in talking with any bastard.” She turned on her heels and rushed towards the door. Elijah couldn't take the insult and again ran to her. As she opened the door. He yanked her body back, throwing her against the wall. Breathing heavily like in rage, He was about to slap her when someone caught his hand in a tight grip and the door closed behind him. “Evan…” Helena breathed out as her eyes water
Helena walked out of the shower cubicle wrapping herself in a towel. After a hectic day and the all the drama in Liam’s school by Rossis she desired for a long hot shower to relax her mind. After putting Liam to bed, Helena came back to Evan's room to take a shower. Evan was engaged on an important call matter with Antonio in the hall so she decided not to disturb him. She wanted to thank him for what He did for them but it could wait.Helena grabbed the hair dryer out from the cabinet in the washroom to dry her wet hair. Today, Evan’s words and his protection for her and her son in the front of the world won her heart totally. There was no moment when her heart didn't race seeing him at the competition playing Liam’s father in all sense. The way He didn't let her son shed any single tear. Her heart wished only if she could have met him before, under other circumstances, maybe she could have fallen for him deeply by now. But we don't always get what we want. ‘Should I shift back
