Stephan POV I stayed up here watching after her all the evening because I felt that this new man was definitely a man who can't be trusted. However, by his looks I got a strong feeling that he is a gay. I am not sure but I have been with these people, a lot closer actually so I can understand him. The night with Noah was a regret but I still made it forgetting everything that I had. "What do you think of yourself huh? Just stay away from me", Josalina roared. She was angry as she locked her arms and looked at me like her biggest mistake. This look hurts me the most. It makes me feel how disgusting I am. I am sympathetic as well as embarrasing. My lips opened because my nostrils were not enough to handle my huge breaths. "Will you leave now?", she roared again. "I am sorry", I said. This was the last thing I could say to her. I saw her stunned look. She seriously dudn't expect me to come up with that. I didn't expect that either but it was something very natural I cannot really tu
Stephan POV It was lunch time and I had my lunch early. I even had to look good. I was acting like a teenage girl and I felt like laughing over myself but Josalina is worth it. I wore a brown tuxedo suit with grey shade over a black shirt. This was the most exquisite piece I bought yesterday. It cost me fifty thousand dollars. I even bought the best perfume and brown laced shoes. My watch was old because it itself is worth millions. I styled my hairs after a nice shampoo and I hope its fragrance lasts longer. On my way to Josalina's place which was determined by David in seconds, I bought a bouquet of red roses. During high school, Josalina used to love the red roses that I usually used to bring her. I remember her cute smile whenever she does that. She then used to pint the rose in her smooth silk hairs and used to proudly tell everyone that it was given to her by her boyfriend. If Josalina wouldn't have called me after lunch then we would have had lunch together and I would have
Stephan POV I opened my eyes. My eyelids were so heavy and stuck that it was very difficult to open them. I was sweating, it was very warm. The AC was not switched on either. My arm was bandaged and I was lying upside down on the bed. I moved my hand on my back and felt huge bandaged pillars. I was finally able to open both my eyes and I saw a milk shake with a plate filled with food beside. "Hello... anyone here?" I called out for help. However, no one responded. It was as if I was the only one in this huge room. The jar of water was also filled and my throat was running dry. I flipped my aching body and tried getting up. The moment my back hit the bed, I felt it burning. I straightened my back sitting up. My ass was hurting too but I was in no mood to stand up. The moment I got a clear vision of the room, there were two men standing guard at the closed door watching over me. This was so cruel. I called for help, I am dying here of pain and they didn't even respond to my cries. I
David POVI was working the entire day because my boss was missing. The project was still under modification and the client has asked the boss to do it in the designs. However, my boss is extremely busy in shopping and buying useless things. Its already evening and I was done with the designs. I went to eat some snacks and i hope to see the boss soon because then he will wake me up from my beautiful sleep.I picked a pack of potato chips and was heading back to my room when the rushing car passed through me. It was my boss car. His mood is not good and he was ready to smash anyone with the speed. I am scared now. I froze in my place and waited for the destiny to decide my fate.The car's door opened and from the driver's seat itself popped out my boss. I was stunned after looking at him. It was as if someone has maldunctioned my vision. I was awestruck and the voice inside me vanished. My mind went numb and my heartbeat stopped. My jaw dropped and my freezing legs couldn't feel the gr
Stephan POVI had never wondered that I can make david so much happy. He has been working with me for more than seven years now and I haven't seen his eyes glitter so much. After I lost Josalina, I turned cold and he moulded his friendly attitude according to my cold needs. He obeyed though he is elder to me. I felt good on watching him like that.As I sat alone, I tried to make myself comfortable. My back was burning and the more I try to lay comfortable, the more I hurt myself but I am done lying upside down now. I was in exctuciating pain and it was difficult to divert my mind. Josalina did gave me pain killers but ofcource they were of no use.I wonder what Josalina's next punishment would be. She has given me two ways, either I complete the task and obey her or I'll leave her forever. Josalina was never like this but her wounds have yet not healed. The physical wounds must pain less now but she has been bruised deep in her soul.The cold gaze that she poured on me today was hurti
Josalina POVToday was hard on me. He was completely broken and was being betrayed once again. I can't believe it that the truth about Noah was hidden from him. The pain I have made Stephan suffer, I will make Noah suffer thrice. However, about tomorrow, will Stephan come tommorrow and accept the challenge or will he leave me forever.I know I was very much hard on him. He was so much beaten that he fainted. In jail, I wasn't hanged for so long. I had let him hanging for hours. I exhaled my sins out. I was one of them who used other to remove their frustration. Stephan was my toy and James absence was my frustration.I am crystal clear that James murder attempt is not done by Stephan. It is not because I trust him, its because I know that he is not that cheap. Noah cannot be a subject of suspicion here because I have people at the airport and Noah has no chance of getting in this country. I have to rush my brain in a different direction, something which is not related to my life but t
Josalina POVThe deal was amazing. I will start the work from the next day itself. I was back at my house and it was already midnight. I was staring at my ceiling because my eyes were not heavy at all. David said something that made me question my own virtues. Noah should be the one suffering all this and Stephan is another bait.However, how can I forget the day when he denied his love for me, when he refused to trust me and when he speculated me with Noah. I lost my parents for loving him. A streak of deep pain inherited in my heart and and I felt suffocated. I immediately got up and moved near the window. My hairs were open and as I opened the window, the cool breeze kissed my face and gave my hairs a quite blew.I was on the fourteenth floor of my office room and the abandoned lighting street was amazing me as usual. The only piece missing here was James."I miss you James", I murmured and a tear passed through my cheek getting heavy on my chin.I sniffed several times when my pho
Josalina POVIts been fifteen minutes already and I am here going impatient sitting on the bench. I can see James through the glass door lying lifeless with all the tubes passing through his body. His heart rate was pretty normal but mine was all turbulent. I was losing my peace here because I was waiting for Stephan. I wanted to see him badly.I looked around and in a few more minutes, I saw Stephan dragging his body near me. He was pale, injured and extremely exhausted. He was still smiling as he saw me. I could feel his pain and the fact that it is all because of me was eating me. He was half bent with a pack of orange juice in his hand.His shirt was folded and his right hand was bandaged. Well the nurse probably didn't know that his entire body is bandaged. I inhaled deeply an dwalked towards him."Are you okay?", I asked him.He nodded yes. I still held his hand and wrapped it around my shoulder and made him sit. There were no more formalities left here but I wanted Stephan to r
Josalina POVI was devstated with Stephan hiding things from me and about the fact that I wasn't a part of Noah's revnge. However, it doesn't feel that bad. Infact, it is good to be back. I feel like going back and check my house. I remember it leaving in a shattered position with all my furniture lying in a closed room stuffed. I was a dependent back then but today, i will buy the place again and build a better house such that no one can destroy it in seconds.Tears roled dopwn my cheek as I thought about it. On the table near my bed was the contract of my employment at Stephan's workplace. I am given the position of the senior lead. At last, he finally understood that I am much more talented than he is. I smiled reading it and signed it. Somewhere in my heart, I am not interested in leaving this place either. When I was keeping the contract back in the envelope, I found another paper in it. I brought it out and it was basically a letter. It was from Stephan stating the reason of hi
Stephan POVHe crossed all the limits now and I couldn't even bother to look at his face. I wanted to punch it and spoo I threw the wine glass away and moved my fist to punch him hard but his reflexes worked quite well. He moved his head back and saved himself. I angrily held his shoulder and looked at his eyes. He was still smiling playfully and at the same moment, I suddenly remembered what Josalina had taught me.Throughout this revenge procedure, Josalina was consistent with the exact revenge procedure. In order to take revenge on Noah, I have to give him exactly what he did to me. I untied my belt and pushed him on the bed.His facial expression suddenly changed. He was here with a plan too. I know he would never hurt me turning me against Josalina was always his plan and ofcource, he couldn't let me hurt him too so he had gun around his waist with a pocket knife in his pocket. I felt them the moment I pushed him on the bed.To comfort him, I removed my shirt and he raised his ey
Stephan was sitting on the couch with a letter in his hand. It was the goodbye letter from Josalina. The shef kept a glass of juice in front of him and was about to leave when Stephan stopped him and gave him the hundred dollar note."Is there anything that you want sir?", the chef asked.Stephan's heart was burning and he bit his lips so he took a deep breath and then said,"Nothing, just give fifty dollar to the cleaner. This is the amount for keeping the guest happy", Stephan said.It pained him terribly when he called Josalina a guest. He wanted her to be the queen of the mansion but everything turned upside down with the revenge of breaking trusts. Stephan felt what he actually had lost.He remembered the last look on Josalina's face when she was taken to the prison for a crime she never committed. Stephan realized that he has come a far way and what Josalina did to him was something very minor. Choking himself down, he picked up his phone to check updates on Josalina but he got
Justin wasn't feeling special here. He was still not able to figure out what to say. The entire room was a reflection of Stephan. Justin was sure that a long time love cant be erased in just a few eetings. Also, he was still not happy with David's reaction before so he asked,"Are you sure you've stopped thinking about him?"David pulled Justin closer but Justin got out of his grip. Justin didn't wanted it to turn out into a romantic sweet talk but wanted serious answers. David realised this and sat on the sofa facing Justin,"Yes", he answered."I was thinking about removing these pictures but I wanted you to see them first", david answered."These pictures are not what I am talking about", Justin claimed.David wrinkled his forehead and gave a questionable look to David."Why did you pull me back when I was about to fight for Josalina?", Justin made himself clear.David sighed. he wasn't expecting Justin to come up with this."I care about Josalina more than you do. Trust me, my bos
The three flew back to where Stephan was. A driver was already there to pick them up. Josalina was resistant to go back but she was forced to do it, hence she took James along with her so that James can be safe in a different country too. James was carried on a stretcher to the main building and he was given a separate room with the doctors to take care of him.The moment the other three reached the living room, they saw Stephan sitting on the sofa. His legs one on top of the other, his face filled with agression and his veins bursting with the ultimate protein he got. David and Justin bowed in front of her but Josalina reflected his means. She sat in fron tof him without showing respect.However, there was something fishy today. There were a lot of people inside the licing room, many of them holding guns. It was as if most of them have took the rebelion in their hand. John was not around yet the bodyguards were there for nobody but Stephan. Josalina was stunned with the suudden chang
Its been two weeks already and suddenly there was a buzz in two different countries. The headlines were foced to change overnight.The headlines at Country A read, "Popular Interior architect and the lead was stabbed brutally!!!"while the headlines for country B read, "The criminal Noah who had fleed from the prison a few days ago was found in pieces at his residence".Josalina was admitted to the hospital in a very critical condition. She was stabbed in stomach, she was fully aware of what was happening arounf but she was in excruciating pain. She was being treated in the operating hall when the doctors suddenly refused to operate on her."the cut is so deep. A professional killer must have done it", one of the doctors said."We cannot operate her, the police needs to give us a permission first", the other doctor said."but she is dying", the third one came forward showing concern.However, the doctors didn't hear him and retreated their actions. The heartbeats were getting slower a
Josalina was back in the country and David was supposed to pick her up. David reached the airport fifteen minutes early. He decided to wait in his car with the music on. At a distance, a desperate man was staring at the car waiting for he owner to come out but even after five minutes, David didn't come out.Justin finally decided to walk to the car and he knocked the window. David was stunned watching Justin. he didn't expect him hear. He switched off the music even though he knew that he can't hear Justin. David has been avoiding Justin ever since Justin has expressed his desire to be with him. David bit his lips and rubbed his fingers trying to decide whether he should open up or not.Out off patience, Justin knowcked the window again. David realized that this is not going to end and that he have to face him. He lowered the wondow pane and said,"just take a step back.... I am coming out"Justin nodded and got back. David picked up his phone and tablet and walked out. However, the m
Josalina POVMy heart was wrenching with every word that Stephan was disclosing about his relationship with Noah. if I will take a closer look, then I had lost half of my childhood in immense betrayal and partial statements. I got up to get a glass of water while Stephan was still on bed staring at me with an odd but sympathetic face."Strip", i said after gulping the glass of water.I turned to look at Stephan and he was now staring me with wider eyes and confused expression. He frowned in excitement or anger, I am not able to understand."Are you serious?", he questioned.We recently had sex but he still doesn't trust me with him stripping. This is true, he do understand that we got no relationship between us and whatever happened was just a mistake. Also, with the tension that he was facing right now, I could feel that he vblames himself for breaking my trust or he is still in a bad position with whatever had happened between him and Noah."Do I look like joking?", I asked him.He
Stephan POV I woke up on my bed and my body was hurting like hell. My eyelids were too heavy and my head was cracking almost. I moved my hand to hold my hand but my muscles were like hurting me. "you should keep your calm. Its all right", I heard John said. He came and sat near me and helped me with my headache. He rubbed his fingers on my head massaging them in the perfect direction. Tears rolled down the edeges of my eyes. The calm breaths that he was helping me take was reviving my memory from last night. I realized that i couldn't control myself, I lost everything that I had because of my own foolishness. I remembered how I spent the night with Noah in his arms and how he arose me. I remember that there was time when I threw myself at him for pleasure. Josalina crossed my mind. Everything was over. Josalina would never trust me again. "How is he doing?", I heard a sweet voice and I remember this voice clearly. I opened my eyes in shock and got up to sit. I looked at her, the
