Divorce (2)

“Are you kidding me, Lily?” Rayan burst into humorless chuckles while shooting her the question. He couldn't believe the words left her mouth at all. Why was she suddenly asking for a divorce? “Do I look like I'm kidding?” Lily fired back with a dead serious voice while starting back into his eyes. At that moment, Rayan realized how serious she looked. She wasn't joking, and this fueled his anger. “What game are you trying to play, Lily, because now I’m getting fucking tired of your games?” Rayan vented while taking dangerous steps towards her. His words finally broke the facade Lily was trying to hold as she let out a dry chuckle while shaking her head. “Everything is game to you and your so-called family, isn't it?” She shook her head while crossing her arms over her chest. There was so much inside her, yet she was holding herself back from speaking any of it. She just wanted to get away from him without losing or wounding her pride further. “So now you are blaming me for this?”

Arrested

Around the afternoon, Lily was casually sitting in the living room of her father’s apartment, lost in her thoughts while waiting for Noah to return from school, when she received a call from an unknown number. She didn't pick up the call, even though she was staring at the caller ID. However, when the phone rang for the second time, she decided to pick it up. “Hello.” She answered after clearing her throat a little. An unfamiliar male voice from the other side answered, making her frown. “Is this Mrs. Lily Allen?” The male voice asked, making Lily pause because of her sudden bitterness. The surname Allen brought back so many unwanted thoughts, which she tried to escape. “Y-yeah. Who’s this?” She swallowed the bitterness before answering the person’s question. “Mrs Allen, I'm Robert Wilson, your father’s colleague. Christian was arrested by the police a few minutes ago, and they are taking him to the police station. Please visit the New York City police department as soon as pos

Gamble

After talking to her father, Lily left the police station to go to the Allen Corporation to meet Rayan since she couldn't get him through the call. Anger, hurt, betrayal, frustration, and helplessness were the few emotions that were clouding her thoughts. She still couldn't believe they would degrade so low and do that to her. What was her father’s fault in all this? He was innocent, yet they framed him just because they wanted her to suffer. She already agreed to divorce Rayan; then why was his family doing this to her? Lily wiped away her tears while continuously calling Rayan’s number, which had been switched off for the past hour. With a frustrated groan, Lily cut the call when it didn't get through. She tried to call Asher, his secretary, but he also wouldn't pick up her calls. A sudden thought of her father spending the next few days in jail crossed her mind, making her shiver in fear. That couldn't happen. She would never let her father spend a single day in jail when he was i

Death

Lily slowly opened her eyes while trying to adjust to the sudden source of light. She blinks a few times to adapt her vision before checking her surroundings. A frown broke on her face as she slowly got up from the bed while looking around herself in confusion. The bunch of moving nurses, doctors, and patients alongside the white curtains cleared her suspicion. She was in the hospital. But how? She looked at her hand, which was covered in IV drips. As she tried to remember what happened, one by one, the memories from the previous night played in her head like a flashback. The last thing she remembered was calling and getting into it. However, since she was completely soaked in the cold rain, she was shivering badly. She probably caught a fever because of exhaustion and a cold before passing out in the taxi. Lily let out a groan when she tried to move her body. Her whole body was aching in pain. She looked down at her body and found herself dressed in blue hospital clothes. Letting ou

Present

Back to the present- “You always blame me for the crimes I didn't even commit. You did it five years ago, and you are still doing it.” Rayan finally spoke up, breaking the long, agonizing silence between them. Anthea, who was busy wiping her tears with the back of her palm, looked up at him and let out a mocking sneer. “Blame? It's such a heavy word, Mr. Allen. I wouldn't call it blame when I have proof of your crimes.” Anthea chuckled while shaking her head. Her voice was still heavy with emotions from the outburst she had a few minutes ago. She even lost track of time because of her trip down memory lane. “Then show me the proof. Tell me what my crimes are. Tell me what I did. Tell me, why did you divorce and leave me? Why Lily? Give me the fucking answers.” Rayan demanded in a frustrated voice while taking steps towards her before caging her between the railings of the balcony and his body. Anthea was caught completely off guard, as she was trapped by Rayan’s tall figure with

Proof

Two weeks passed after Anthea had a heated argument with Rayan. Since that night, she hadn't seen or heard anything about him, as if he had vanished to prove his words. One week ago, Anthea and Sebastian decided to throw an engagement party to make everything official. To be honest, Anthea didn't have any plans previously regarding the engagement; however, she was furious with Rayan’s ridiculous words, which is why she impulsively said things about throwing the engagement party and inviting him to her engagement. She did that completely in the heat of the moment and then had to talk to Sebastian and arrange everything within the next two weeks. Nothing was going according to her plan; besides, the things Rayan said that day in the restaurant were stuck in her head. She couldn't understand why he would suddenly declare something like that. His words and actions made no sense to her at all. Besides, he was behaving like he still loved her, and being engaged to Aurelia meant nothing to

Betrayal

“I see you are here to spit nonsense and waste my time.” Anthea scoffed while crossing her arms over her chest. She then walked past him before walking towards the couch placed in the living room and sitting down. “You always think of the worst in me, don’t you?” Rayan’s voice held a hint of pain and frustration as he turned to follow her. Anthea pressed her lips together before meeting his gaze. That was the third time she asked her the same question. "Yes, because you gave me enough reason for that.” Anthea answered without hesitation. Rayan seemed to be at a loss for a moment as he stared at her without blinking, trying to figure her out. “Give me 30 minutes, then I will leave without any words.” Rayan’s voice was firm as he demanded, making Anthea slightly raise her eyebrow at him. Her initial reply was that she wouldn't; however, she was aware of how stubborn Rayan could be. He was here with a purpose, and he would never leave if she didn't listen to what he had to say. “Fine

Surprise News

The next day, Anthea woke up from her sleep from the continuous ringing of her phone. She didn't get a wink of sleep last night because of everything that happened yesterday. Since the moment Rayan left her apartment, she has been in a great dilemma. Her heart and mind had been in a huge war regarding everything she just found out. As the phone kept ringing, Anthea let out a groan before reaching out her hand to grab the phone from the cabinet. She blinked her eyes a few times to get rid of the sleepiness. As she checked the ID, she found it was a call from Emilia. Anthea checked the time and found it was around 9 a.m. in the morning, which made her sigh. “Hey.” She greeted her in a hoarse voice as soon as the call was connected. “You need to check the news; I'm coming over.” Emilia’s worried voice reached her ears, making Anthea frown. She tried to get up from the bed while wondering what Emilia was talking about. “What happened, Emi?” Anthea asked in confusion while removing the

Visit To An Old Place

Anthea rang the bell of Rayan's apartment with an impatient expression on her face. Her face had already turned as cold as ice the moment she stepped on this premise. At first, she had gone to his office without any prior notice; however, when she reached there, he wasn't present. Anthea quickly contacted his other assistant to learn about his whereabouts. To her surprise, Layla informed her that he hadn't come to the office besides it being the weekend. However, as far as Anthea remembered, he liked to work on the weekend too and rarely took any day off; therefore, it was a huge surprise for her. She called his number many times, yet all of her calls were directed straight to voicemail, which frustrated her even more. Anthea was on the verge of losing her temper when Layla suggested to her that she go to his apartment to visit him. She thanked Layla and cut the call before thinking whether it was appropriate to visit his apartment or not. She received his address from Layla via text

Words and Actions

The moment Anthea stepped inside Nevaeh’s room, her heart dropped to her stomach at the sight of her. The poor baby was sleeping on the small single bed, her face pale and red due to the fever. Anthea walked towards her with small steps while clenching her fists tightly on both sides. Rosie, who was initially sitting beside the sleeping Nevaeh, looked up at her with an with an invisible shock on her face. Anthea spared her a small smile in acknowledgement before directly making her way over the bed and then sitting down on the left side of the bed. Neaveh’s small body was half covered in a blue floral-printed duvet. “Has she eaten anything in the morning?” Anthea asked in a small voice as she placed her hand on Nevaeh’s forehead. Thankfully, she wasn't burning up with fever. Her temperature had cooled down slightly, but there were still traces of fever. "Yeah, but not much. Rayan was able to feed her a few spoons of soup I had prepared in the morning.” Rosie answered with a sigh, gl
