"What did you say? He has another woman?" Chloe saw her best friend the happiest for the first time, she wished that happiness would last long but sadly, it was the opposite.Chloe with clenched fists finished drinking the coffee at once and putting the cup on the table she ordered one more again. She was in no mood to think of anything. "Yeah." Amyra's downward voice got her angrier than she already was. "You are his wife, how can he have another woman? Seriously, what is his problem?" Amyra saw that rebellious girl who used to react like this every time someone bullied her, Chloe wouldn't let her be unhappy for long. Life was never easy, doing part-time jobs and handling life problems she was probably more happy than now back then. At least she never felt a heartbreak like this before, not even when she found out about James and Mila. Since the day she got arrested, things seemed to work another way around for Amyra. Heaving a sigh gloomily, Amyra faked a smile on her face, "W
"Mr Bryant? Are you ok?" The woman sitting opposite him asked Xavier. All the way he didn't talk to her and he seemed absolutely fine but as he started acting a bit different all of a sudden, she got worried. Xavier nodded his head absentmindedly and asserted in a significant tone, "Let's talk about the contract.""Sure." Going to dinner with Mr Bryant was more than 'a dream never come true' for every employee in the company and especially when it was her first day at work. Inconceivable! "Here, taste the new dish they made. It tastes delicious." Allen extended his fork towards Amyra with food. They seemed to be quite happy to spend some quality time together. On the other hand, the woman opposite Xavier was explaining things when suddenly he whacked on the table. Seeing his sudden raging behaviour she got frightened, "Is something wrong? Did I... Did I make a mistake? Mr Bryant." Xavier abruptly stood up, his face looking like an angry five year old kid as he uttered while kee
"Where are you going?" For two minutes straight Amyra had been striding out of the room and then back to the cloakroom. At first, he didn't mind but slowly it seemed strange. Xavier, confused, tried to understand what she was tryna do. Not getting a response from her he abruptly grabbed her hand, the pillow and blanket dropped from her hand. "I asked where are you going?" His eyes gazed at the things that fell from her hand. So she was planning to sleep outside?Amyra pulled herself away from his grip and picked up her pillow and the blanket back. "I am going to sleep in another room." "But your room is there." He pointed his finger towards the cloakroom. After coming back to the mansion, forget about talking to him, she didn't even look at him as if she wanted to ignore him at any cost. "It's not and I just want to sleep somewhere else, you got an issue with that?" Xavier felt resentment in her tone though. He smirked and sauntered before her, "Why do you want to sleep somewher
Looking at the mirror Amyra rinsed her face with the water. It felt like ice falling on her face. But she needed it to wake herself up. Swerving around she put her hands on the counter and tried calming down. The view from the wedding night kept playing before her eyes. Then again when she saw them together and the people were talking behind their back. 'You can kill it for your good. Just do it, just pretend like you... You don't care.' Amyra smiled brightly at the mirror and grabbed her purse, wanting to leave the washroom. As she was at the door Layla entered the washroom. Layla looked different from Amyra in most aspects. She was a model, they said. "You are Amyra right?" Layla asked her while doing her hair a little. Amyra halted hearing her. Seeing her silent, Layla uttered in a welcoming tone, "Xay has told me about you." 'Xay.' She never got a chance to call him that. Everytime someone called him 'Xay', she felt she was not close to him. "Oh, it's Xavier. I forgot he d
It was probably an hour later. Amyra didn't know the timing, she had been sitting on the couch for quite a long she guessed. Looking around she couldn't see anyone but only an empty place. "Where is Allen? He said I would feel better if I stayed here but he had been gone for quite a long time now. Where is he..." She looked at her phone and her eye vision got blurry. Amyra somehow stood up and looked for her purse. The place suddenly felt quite damp. "Allen, are you there? Where are you?" She stood up and started walking towards somewhere she had no idea about. The place was quite dimmed but she trusted Allen so she knew she wouldn't be in danger but where was she? Walking some inches Amyra suddenly felt someone close. She smiled in relief and asked, "Allen, where have you been? I was..." The man walked close to her and Amyra felt her head spinning. She couldn't keep her balance. "Allen, my head is spinning. Can you take me... Home please?" She walked another step and suddenly s
The Next Day "Ta-ra-ta-ra-ra." Amyra did her necktie and getting her backpack she strolled downstairs. She had talked with her friends in school that she would go to school earlier since they had some plans done before. They were going to a place today and Amyra was super excited about that. Amyra was walking towards the entrance when suddenly a not-so-familiar female voice ripped into her ears. "Oh, it's Miss Cassidy. Good morning, dear." Layla asserted with a smile. But it was not her smile that caught Amyra's attention, instead it was the person sitting next to her.Amyra smiled at her forcibly. She the least wanted to see her, especially in the early morning."Good morning, Miss... Ahh, I don't remember your surname."Hearing her, the corner of his lips curled into a smile before getting back to his cold self. With sharp eyes, Layla smirked at her angrily and looked at Xavier. "You can call me Mrs Bryant since I will be married to him soon." Her words hit her. Amyra didn't r
* Two days later *Tired as hell, Amyra sat on the sofa. She laid her body on the couch and took a deep sigh. These past two days, they treated her like a maiden. Layla and Kim as if they were the owner of the house. Amyra sometimes made coffee for Layla, sometimes she cooked for them and sometimes she protested but she couldn't do much against those two.On the other hand Xavier vanished in the air. He left two days ago without telling her anything and since then her life has changed for the worse. Amyra was more surprised when they told her that it was Xavier who told them to treat her not so specially. Amyra never imagined her life could turn up this way, unexpectedly tied. As her phone started ringing, Amyra held it near her ears. "Hello." "It's me, Chloe." Hearing Chloe's voice she felt relieved. She could finally relax and talk to her best friend. "How have you b..." Amyra was startled as suddenly someone snatched her phone from behind, turning around she saw Kim. Irritate
Layla smiled looking at drowning Amyra. She learnt that Amyra didn't know how to swim and that she was afraid of water. Slowly Amyra was drowning in water, she could barely keep her breathing steady. 'Save me, please. You said you would protect me.' Layla was still smiling when suddenly her smile faded and in no time she jumped into the pool. She screamed, "Please, someone save... Save me." She screamed at the top of her lungs. Xavier jumped into the water, Layla quickly wrapped her arms around him and he slowly pulled her towards the stairs. Amyra with a little strength, with a little hope was still breathing.Xavier helped Layla to get out of the water when Amyra was immersing deep in the water. 'Is this how you protect me...' "Where is Amyra?" He asked Layla worriedly. "She..." Layla mumbled. Xavier grabbed her arms angrily and asked again, "I asked where she is!" "She is..." Losing it, Xavier looked around, he couldn't see Amyra anywhere. He was losing his mind. "Amyra...
