Re-entry in their life

“No, I can go outside. My mom and sister might have gone to the ladies’ washroom.” He wanted to say something snarky to this man but stopped himself as he realized that he couldn't say it as the latter only helped him. Reluctantly, he added, “Thank you, Mister!”Of course, he would not take any more help from this man. Moreover, he did not want Coco to tease him more by knowing that he could not even pee alone. Nicholas raised his brow at the boy's mannerisms and before he could say anything, the boy ran from there. As Leon reached outside, he saw his mother and sister waiting for him. “Let's go, Leon,” Coco said. She grabbed his hand and began running towards the venue. “Kids, don't run!” Roseanne said. “I can't catch up with you.”At this time, Nicholas left the washroom and happened to hear the voice. The voice left him in a trance. No matter how much he wanted to ignore that Anne Rose was not on his mind, he could not help but notice how similar it was to hers. Shaking his head

She used to remember that day with a sweet smile but after the betrayal it only scared her heart. The visceral hate that she had for Nicholas Hart began five years ago when she saw his real face. But eight years ago, she met the charming Nicholas Hart that made her fall for him in an instant. She was not someone who would decide to spend the rest of her life on the basis of a single meeting but Nicholas Hart touched the corners of her heart that she did not know existed. Sometimes, she wished that day eight years ago had never occured. The day when she lost her sanity and never recovered. *Flashback*"Anne?"A young girl in her early twenties entered the living room of her humble house as she heard her father calling for her.

"Anne, are you ready? We have to leave soon, "Her father said from outside. He had been waiting for her for a long time but there was no movement on her side. "Yes. Yes. I'm coming, "Anne murmured, looking at herself in the mirror for the last time."Are we getting late, papa?" Anne whispered as he was driving. "Will you get scolded by your boss?""I am sure they will not mind waiting an extra five minutes, "Her father said. Did her father really said that the Hart couple could wait? For a moment, she could not believe it. All her life, she had seen him giving the Hart family the respect one would give to god. She was not a religious person nor her father was but if he considered someone God it would be Nikolai Hart. "Is everything alright?" Anne asked. Her father had been behaving unusually. This time, he had crossed a big limit. Perhaps, she was thinking too much. Jacob looked at his daughter and said, "Yes, child. Everything is alright."Reluctantly, she believed his words. If

"Kids, come join us at the dining table."Throughout the meal, Anne was on pins and needles. She could feel Nicholas' eyes boring into her. She was stealing glances at him throughout the time she was there. How could she not? He was the most beautiful man she had ever met. He emitted dangerous sensations but she ignored them and focused merely on his masculine magnificence. When the dinner was over, Anne returned home with her father. She wanted to bid bye to Nicholas who she had come to like a lot in a single meeting. Unfortunately, he left after the meal and she didn't see or hear of him again. On the way home, Mr Swift bought a tub of ice cream, making Anne even more suspicious of his move. It was when they were in their house, he confided in her, "Anne Rose, you have grown up to be a very beautiful and precious woman."Anne didn't say anything but she highly doubted it. She was a dull and plain looking blonde. There was nothing beautiful about her. Beautiful was the skin the Har

Eight Years Ago (4)

The click on the door startled Anne who was sitting on the bed in her wedding gown, waiting for her newly wedded husband. She was in her new bedroom in the new home that she shared with her husband. It was their wedding night and she was nervous about it. She had never been close with any boy. She didn't know if she would be able to make her husband happy with her. After all, she was nothing special. Though she dared to live the big dream of having Nicholas Hart all for herself. Anne had worn the beautiful and sensual lingerie selected by her mother-in-law, saying that it would be useful to her. She was flushed when her mother-in-law gave her lessons about her first night. There was a noise again in the room. "Nicholas?" Anne whispered. "Is that you?"The room was dimly lit and she couldn't make out his silhouette as he was far away and she wasn't wearing her spectacles. "Yes, Anne Rose. It's me."His voice vibrated in her ears and her heart started beating heavily. Suddenly, she

Eight Years Ago (5)

The first thing that happened the next morning was Nicolas making love to his newly married wife. Then, the newly wedded couple went to his parent's house to have lunch with them. In Anne's mind, she was supposed to leave for her honeymoon in the evening but the news that she received in her in-laws' home shook her to the core. "My father is arrested?" Anne asked as she heard the news. The various news channels were reporting the arrest of Jacob Swift for his involvement with the mafia. "That's a lie. My father is an honest man. He can never do that!"In every girl's mind, her father was the best person on the planet. Anne was the same. However, she had so many instances to cite that her father could never do the heinous crimes that he was accused of. He could not even kill an ant. How could he be associated with dirty mafias? She wanted to scream that his arrest was wrong and unfair. "Anne sweetheart, we can understand your pain. It's hard to understand, "Mrs Hart said, trying to

Eight Years Ago (6)

One day while they were having dinner at her in-laws' house, she heard Ellora say, "You should consider LASIK."Anne never had a problem with her glasses and so she never considered surgery as an option. She liked her glasses as it had become a part of her personality. Moreover, she had changed herself a lot in the course of two years to be part of this family. She even got her natural teeth extra whitened that Ellora believed were yellowing. She changed the way she behaves, sits, eats, sleeps and everything to fit in this family. When Ellora asked about the eye surgery, she felt like her essence was getting snatched from her. For others, it was a small thing but for her, it was asking her to change her essence. "What do you say, Nicholas?" Ellora questioned her son who usually keeps himself away from her musings. "I don't have any problem, "Nicholas said without even bothering to look at anyone. Emery, Ellora's daughter added, "Then, sister-in-law should also get her crooked teet

Anne was sad and depressed the whole day after she came from the Hart house. That place always made her sad. But she only talked to Emery and Ellora and she had nobody else to talk to. Even though they pain her sometimes, she had nobody else. That day Anne was surprised to find her husband at home. A tall woman with dark hair was crying on his shoulder. She didn't like the scene before her eyes. "Tracy, I can feel your pain, "Nicholas consoled the girl. Never had he ever consoled her like this, "Everything will be fine."Was he not always an apathetic and unemotional man? What happened to his usual personality or was it reserved for his wife only? The beautiful girl cried, "I don't wanna go home, brother Nick. I don't want to. My heart hurts so much. I can't go back there."She called him ‘Nick.’ She recalled how she called him Nick once and he raised hell over it. She spent a whole week coaxing him. She never gave him any nickname after that incident. Nicholas wiped the girl na

The story of her life

Nathaniel gently rested his hand on her shoulder and said in an attempt to console her, "You cannot alter any aspect of this story. The things were meant to unfold as they did. Presently, the only way you have is to acknowledge the past and make do with the present. I refrain from discussing the future, uncertain whether I will even be alive to witness tomorrow that may never arrive."Roseanne knew that Nathaniel was not the man who would console someone or who would speak big things. It was rare for him to discuss things about life so casually. Otherwise, he always had a very raw and pessimistic approach towards everything. His words were not optimistic but they were motivating for her. This made her see Nathaniel and Nicholas in contrast. Her ex-husband was an unemotional man and Nathaniel considered him to be the same. But the latter would never intentionally hurt someone with his actions or words. He was unemotional in aspects of his life. When it came to treating others, he would
