I wanted to start with basic questioning that's why I started with something lighter."We both know you've killed my parents and my brother. So I guess so was the next right?" I threw my first question at him as he smirked."I would have killed you alot sooner but what can I say, I was just being too generous."William was not giving me straight answer and I'm afraid I'm not leaving him alone until he answers my every single question. The only way to make him speak was this, I grabbed my gun from the back and pointed at his head. His eyes widened in shock as I continued to speak."I'm not here to play games with you Willam. You know how much good I'm with guns because of my father so you better answer my question seriously this time." I threatened him which seemed to work and threw my next question at him."Why did you kill my parents. Was it for Thier money?"William was quite for few seconds but he knew I was determined so he finally started speaking."It wasn't for Thier wealth to b
“Can you slow down a bit?” Amy calmed the storm going inside my head by suddenly asking me to slow down. I didn’t realized how much fast we were going until she called me out. I sighed heavily and slowed the car down as Amy spoke up again.“That’s why I suggested that I should be the one driving. Your focus is somewhere else and you know it,” Obviously it is. Life decided to fuck me up suddenly and my focus is there.“It’s kind of my therapy you know,” I tried to come up with the lamest excuse I could because at this point I was anything but calm. She was right that I shouldn’t be driving right now but I can’t help it. At this point, I don’t even know what to think and how to justify anyone’s behavior.“Talk to me Layla. Don’t fight this battle alone inside your head. We’ve been through a lot but always together,”It is true that my brain is having a war inside of it right now and it’s also true that Amy and I have gone through so much together. But I don’t think I’ll be able to descr
Stephanie continued stating her reason regarding why she helped William."He recorded my confession about how I'll help him get rid of the file and few other things which were against me. William threatened me with them and said that he won't be the only one going down. I got scared Layla, I gave up and did whatever he asked me to do. I thought I won't be able to do anything without him. But a few days ago, I found out that he was also responsible for Liam's death. That's when I got furious and started digging on him. I even got hands on the file he was so scared of getting public. It wasn't complete but it was a start. I know my company's image would be destroyed too but I'm ready for that. I'll do anything to put him in his place Layla,"If only she knew Carlos was already putting him in his place. But I won't tell her that now. I'll tell her everything when I'm done. And I wasn't done yet. I just started. Today I'm going to get all the answers I've been finding for years."Why Liam
The heaviness of blanket covered my body as I slowly opened my eyes. For a second, I was lying still and staring at the ceiling when suddenly I jolted up as the events of past few hours of my life hit me. I looked around and realized this wasn't my room. A second later, relived washed over me when I realized its Aiden's room and I'm resting on his bed. When did I fall asleep? Why am I in his room? And how did I even get here?I looked at my phone and the time was 9:00pm at the moment. Woah! How long did I slept for? Last I remember, it was past 3:30 pm. I unlocked my phone just to find 1 missed call from Carlos and 10 missed calls from Celine. I couldn't help but smile at their differences. One was someone with dead serious personality who would never call twice. While the other was someone with a really caring personality who would do anything to make sure that you're alright.I just find both of them very cute and suitable for each other. I guess opposites do attract after all. I'm
Aiden was so emerged in his work that he didn't notice my presence in the room. That gave me the leverage to look at him for a while and admire him a bit. This man is a piece of art that I could admire for hours. The way his sleeves were rolled up while he was swiftly typing on the keyboard was a view I would love to watch any day. God made him with so much effort. To this day, I still can't believe that this man loves me and he's mine.I made my way toward him slowly but still, he was unaware of my presence. The coffee table was filled with paper and files while he was working on the laptop. Aiden stopped typing and leaned back on the couch as he sighed. I wonder what he's working on. All of a sudden his gaze met mine and I immediately smiled at him."How long have you been standing there, staring at me like that?" His voice was heavy like he haven't said a single word in the last few hours."Like what," I asked as I made my way towards him, eyes still on him."Like you're in love wi
3 Months Later:"You look so pretty," I complimented Amy as I entered from kitchen to her room and sat on the bed."Thanks I know," She said while blushing clearly, but she would never admit that."Another date?" I asked."Yeah well I got to know about it today so let's see. I guess it's some fancy restaurant and I feel like this red dress would be perfect for it," Amy twirled around and once again looked at herself in the mirror.I was so happy for her because she finally found her happiness. Since Amy and Noah started dating few months ago, Amy has been happier then ever. And everyone knows how crazy Noah is for her. He literally worships her secretly. Well about Carlos and Celine, they are still in Thier talking phase. But I'm sure as hell that they would end up dating one day so I'm not that worried about them.I looked at my phone and there was no new message. And my boyfriend? He's busy I guess because we haven't talked or seen each other since 32 hours and yes I was counting. I
First of all I would like to thank you all for reading it till the end. This book was one of my first novel ever and I've learned alot from it. It took me almost 1 year and 6 months to complete this book. It taught me so much that it will always have a special spot in my heart. I love you all for reading it and supporting it continuously.This book would not be here without certain people in my life. and I would like to take a moment and appreciate Thier efforts as well. Saamia Shabbir, one of my best friends who supported me throughout this journey. Her nickname is Amy, so you can see where that character came from. She even helped me with the making of few big plots in the novel. She is the best part of my life to be honest. Saamia, this is all because of you.Nabiha Ather Farooqi, my another best friend who's also one of my very first readers. I'm sure as hell that she would be nagging at me to give her more chapters right now. No one can support me better then her. And yeah man, do
16 years-old Jake: Nothing here seems familiar. I was still me, but I wasn't quite myself. Everything near me stopped. I felt like the world is coming to an end. All this happened in a glance. Light flickering, pieces of glasses, and blood near me. It took me a moment to realize whose it was, and a drop of tear fell from my eyes on the realization that it was my blood, and I was the one lying on this cold ground, once again all alone. I got hit by a truck. Was it all meant to be? Was it all plotted? I was badly hurt, both physically and mentally. I just wanted to scream at the People who dragged me down here, but I couldn't. I was lying on that cold ground, totally hopeless. It was just about a few minutes making me realize how I could have changed what just happened now. But everything wasn't my fault completely. It was his entire fault. I was t

Layla's POV:Oh god it's happening, it's happening, it's happening. My mind keeps chanting the same thing again and again. I swear to God I feel like I'm having a heart attack. My legs can't seem to stop shaking anytime soon. Same goes for my hand and the rapid beat of my heart. I'm not prepared at all. I even didn't got the time to process it all and now here it is.We are actually going to deal with my uncle Today. Today is finally the day and I needed a few days to proceed it. But Carlos just told me yesterday at Aiden's house that we are taking care of my Uncle after all I need to do is kill him. Like that's one of the most easiest task in the world. Well it's not and I needed alot of time to mentally prepare myself.But Carlos had some important work and he would be gone for a while. He is leaving the country for a while and won't be back anytime soon. So I had two options, either wait for him to come back which god knows when or just go with it today. I decided that I don't want
Aiden's POV:My cheeks felt wet as soon as I woke up. Where the hell am I? I looked around and saw Layla sitting besides me, staring out the window. I wiped the potential tear of my face as the memories of what happened few minutes ago hit me up. Was I crying while sleeping? Thankfully I didn't made any weird noise.I moved in my seat and sat up properly as Layla turned to me when she noticed me waking up."You're finally awake. We were just about to reach your house." Layla announced."Oh the princess is already up?" Noah asked from the front seat."When the hell did I dozed off?" I confusingly looked around."As soon as I pushed you in this car. I'm still thinking about how you did that."I'm surprised as well. I guess I was just too relived that my heart and head felt lighter. Anyways it was a good hell of a nap so I'm not the one complaining about it. I feel even lighter after that nap and that's even much stranger. But I'll just ignore it because I've never felt something like th
