As I was stepping forward, Layla nods her head in the left to the right direction and telling me to stop. She breaks the hug by pushing him away politely. My fist was closed tightly and I was trying so hard to control myself.
"Miss Layla you look very talented. If you want to make good use of your talent then give me a call. I would help you out truly," Tyler handed her his card and gave a smirk.
She was being so calm and patient right now that if I was in her place, I would knock him out right now until it's confirmed that he is dead.Finally, he went away and we were able to breathe. I turned to Layla and she was full red in anger
"Hey, do you have a punching bag?" Layla asked angrily.I wanted to vent my anger out too and I guess that was the best option we had right now. I directed her towards the upper floor where my gym and room were located. She ran upstairs and I followed her.
"Looks like my punchin

Layla's Perspective: "Layla pick up your phone for God's sake!" A voice reached into my ears as soon as my eyes opened. The sunlight coming through my window was falling onto my face and disturbing my sleep. I rubbed my eyes as the phone kept ringing. I slept very late last night and I thought that it was okay as it's a weekend. Oh gosh, I deserve a break. The phone finally stopped as I pulled the blanket over my face. Yesterday was very long and tiring and all I need was to sleep the whole day. I was about to sleep once again when the phone started ringing again. Cursing under my breath and removing the blanket from my face, I finally picked up the call. "Ya! You should respect people who work all week long and finally get to sleep on weekends. Disturbing someone when they are asleep is a crime!" I said in an annoying and tired voice, not knowing who was
Layla's Perspective:"I'm here," ~Aiden.I grabbed my purse and checked myself in the mirror one more time before heading out. I can't wait for the news he was so excited about to tell me.We were finally outside and I figured out that Liam has already spotted Aiden and Noah as he was rushing towards them. Amy was running after him so they both were running practically.Finally, I reached them and the first one who came to greet me was Noah."So how is this champ doing?" Noah came and gave me a side hug."I'm good I'm good. You are going first with Amy and Liam?" I asked curiously seeing two cars standing in this parking area."Yeah, we are. Because Aiden likes to drive his car and I don't think that we all would be able to fit in his car as it's for two people only," Noah pointed towards a red Ferrari, and as soon as my eyes landed in that direction. Aiden opened his car door to come out."So
****"Are you liking it?" I asked Aiden who was busy seeing his surrounding.Aiden finally looked into my eyes and I could see nothing but honesty and excitement in his eyes. "More than I could ever like something," He said with glittery eyes, "Well except for some people," He looked directly into my eyes and I could feel my soul burning.I was about to say something when the ride suddenly stopped as it reached the top. I smiled because I knew what was happening. Aiden looked at me as he was terrified for a second but his expression changed as soon as he saw me.Then we heard it. We almost went deaf as the sound of Noah screaming from the next passenger seat reached our ears. Noah was screaming on top of his lung but I couldn't help but laugh at him. Aiden and Amy were laughing too while Noah was busy screaming. Amy was shouting back at him and asking him to calm down and look around."A
**** We were now finally standing at this lake right now which was surrounded by beautiful flower plants and trees. I've seen this area from the Ferris wheel earlier but it looked so special and so unique when we see it up from this close. This area was specially made for people who loved to enjoy fall no matter what the season is. I didn't know it before but this is exactly what I needed this time. There was a path in between those trees and flowers where we were walking. I was so fascinated by the scenery that I forgot about Aiden who was following me behind. I turned to him with a huge smile on my face. "So what's the news," I said stopping I'm my place.He stopped and calmly smiled."Any guesses?" I was completely clueless about what's happening. I mean a lot has been happening in my life for few weeks but I'm not sure that what would be the news. I agree that these past weeks have been so much hectic bu
**** The sounds of birds chirping felt somehow comfortable. I woke up early today as today is the workday. I was busy preparing for the presentation on Sunday and I slept early and comfortably after preparing everything for today. "Sis, do I look good?" Liam came running from his room. He woke up early today as he was excited. He was wearing this cute little dress today which made him look a lot handsome.Today was his day too. We both are a lot happy today because we finally did it. "Yeah, Liam you look good! You look so handsome my love," I said cupping his cheeks, "Are you done preparing your painting?" I asked. "Yeah, I'm done. Today is going to be a lot of fun, Sis. I hope you enjoy it too," "Today would be fun but I'm sorry that you need to go alone. Amy is busy too today. I will drop you there but still, I'm sorry," I said sadly. Yesterday Liam got another offer from the same exhibition and they asked him to c
****I entered the company before Aiden as he kept insisting that it's fine to go together. But I was finally able to stop him.I entered my office and was happy for today. Noah and Aiden must have entered the company by now. Although people might have known that I knew Aiden still I don't want them to talk about it as Aiden is a hotshot and I'm a mere employee. That's why they would get a chance to gossip about it and that's the last thing I wanted right now.Emma entered my office."They are here, The designing team!" She excitedly entered and hug me, "You finally did it, Layla! The one who deserves everything is you," she said.Emma has helped me a lot and I would be forever grateful for her."They want to meet their top three employees now," "Who?" I asked because this wasn't planned."Miss.Celine, the top designer," Emma stated."What!" I exclaimed, "Right now all of a sudden? I thou
Once upon a time, there was a happy family. Loving husband and wife and their two beautiful kids. They used to live their life as nothing in the world is bothering them. The kids were loved a lot by their parents. "Till death do us apart," they vowed but death took them both away together. Death didn't separate those people who vowed, but death did separate those two from their loved ones. It's very cruel to everyone as no one can choose not to die. But soon, there would be a big scar left on of the family member of this happy family which no one knew about as there was no family left for her. Xx____xX "Wake up Layla and Liam," The beautiful voice was always there to wake up these little kids every day. The kids used to ran downstairs whenever they heard their mother Olivia calling them from the staircase. "Here are my champs!"The dad used to hug these kids tightly eve
Layla's Perspective:"Wake up Layla, wake up!"I could hear a gentle voice waking me up, rubbing his soft hands off my cheeks.I slowly opened my eyes as the rays of the sun were reflecting on my face. It took me a second to realize what had happened to me. How I fainted in front of the elevator."Liam!" I said as soon as I came back to my senses.My eyes were once again filled with tears on the realization of what happened to my brother earlier.Liam was hit by a car and now he was in critical condition as the doctor told me on the phone. What was happening to me? Why can't I ever be happy? I was wrong that I'm not scared of anything anymore. I was wrong of being someone new. Someone different. I was still the same Layla from 11 years ago.I'm not strong and I'm scared."We are going to the hospital right now please calm down,
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
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
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
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
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
“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
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
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
