Chapter - [ 111 ]

[ Adeline ]The house felt empty and cold. There wasn't a single soul with whom I could share my grief. My heart felt void and the pain was unexplainable.I watched the sun setting down from the window of my room. I had been locked here for last an hour, trying my best to convince myself that this was an ideal decision until Xavier clears his mind.I don't want to become a second choice because Xavier is my only choice. My eyes fell on the folder laying on the table. It might give me some breakthrough on Emily's past and if Arthur is speaking the truth, then I must save my husband from her.A knock on the door snapped me out of my dilemma. It must be Blaze's wife who insisted to stay back and cook dinner for me."Please, come in."The door creaked open slowly and she peeked inside with a bright smile on her face."Ma'am, the dinner is ready. Please, come to the dining room." She said to me."You know you don't have to take this much efforts, Lisa. I can cook, trust me. I have been on

Chapter - [ 112 ]

[ Xavier ]Many thoughts kept swirling inside my mind as I left my house to see my wife. Emily had already retired to her room. The house felt empty and haunted without Adeline my side. I missed her terribly. It was the longest time since we got married when I've not seen her except for working hours. She told me not to follow her but I'd not listen to her this time. I can't lose my wife due to some dilemma I am facing. Blaze kept me updated on her. He and his wife helped her to settled down in the villa and on my insistence, they're staying at the villa to keep her company. "Sir, we have arrived." My driver informed me as the car stopped with a screech. I looked out of the window.For the first time in two years, this house looked lively. My heartbeats accelerated in an anticipation to see her. I hope she doesn't back away or shut me out this time. I need her, she needs me.With steady steps, I made my way inside the house. The guards outside greeted me. Everything looked on its

[ Adeline ]He kissed me, with passion and urgency. He didn't give me a chance to think or react, he just kept kissing me, his hands possessively wrapped around my waist, pulling me impossibly closer. I need him, he needs me.Throwing all the caution out of the window, I kissed him back. He is my husband and we weren't committing a sin. I could feel him smile in between the kiss. My fingers knotted his silky hairs. It was becoming needier and deeper.Until I recall the moment from the morning. Those same lips kissed another woman.Yes, for me, Emily is the other woman in his life. So, with the last straw of self respect, I pushed him.I was breathing hard, trying to inhale oxygen for my tired lungs. His confused and somewhat hurt eyes met mine."This is wrong. All of this. You should leave." I ran my fingers through my hairs as my frustration grew with passing moments.His face welcomed a cold expression. I could see anger in his eyes because the way his veins popped up, I could tell

[ Adeline ]I cried and cried hard after I rejected my husband. I heard his car driving off. He left, he kept his promise. My eyes began to sting after crying for hours but the pain didn't subside. It intensified even more.I laid back on my bed which felt cold because I had grown habituated to sleep in my husband's arms.My eyes fell on the folder which had been waiting for me to open and find out about Emily and how she is.My husband must be blind in her love but I wasn't a fool. I made this mistake before but this time, I won't be doing the same thing again. Emily must accept her defeat.I sat straight on the bed and switched on the night lamp to read the file in peace. With nervous heart, I opened the folder and scanned the general details on her.It didn't catch my curiosity since it contained her parents, birth, schooling and early life's details which Arthur already told me. I flipped the next page and from there, her life became interesting like a movie."Emily Jones was exp

[ Adeline ]"You kicked him out of the house when he was trying to seduce you?" Travis spat out the cold drink and gave me a look of disbelief. I rolled my eyes on his over straightforward statement."I didn't say that he was trying to seduce me. We kissed and he simply wanted to spend the night at the villa." I said."The same thing, do you really think a man would stop after a passionate kiss, specially a man who found his true love and he is back from a mind numbing honeymoon?" Travis said."We're not here to discuss my married life inside the room, Travis. I want us to find out what she is really up to because I can't take any action without being hundred percent sure." I said."I read the folder. I must give the credits to Arthur. His investigation seems authentic since all the records are extracted from police record." He said reading the folder again."We don't have much time, Travis. She is living at my home with my husband and I can't do anything. If I am not wrong, her eyes

[ Adeline ]"Ade, I have promised my friend to keep it between us. I think you should ask Xavier. I have given all the related information on your father to him." Travis said. "Alright, I can understand." I pressed a smile but I really wanted to know my father's deeply rooted evil which I failed to realize before."But I can tell you, he is the biggest enemy you can have if you don't balance your equation with Lucas Greyson. He is an old player in this game and believe me, he'd not hesitate for bloodshed if it requires for him to take his enemies down." Travis told me everything in less words."Thanks, Travis. I really needed a friend to talk." I expressed my gratitude for him."Anytime, Mia Cara." He winked at me before leaving my office.First step done and now time for my next step. My heart craved to see my husband and run into his arms. Last night, I really wanted him but my pride came in between my feelings for him. I broke his heart but I can still not erase the image of them

[ Adeline ]"Are you feeling okay now, Ma'am?" Sandra asked me softly as she was done wrapping a bandaid on my hand."Yeah, thanks, Sandra. You really didn't need to bother yourself." I forced a smile . I felt ashamed of bursting out in front of her."It's fine, Ma'am. I am here to help you not just for work but it's my duty to take care of you when you do the same for me." She smiled and handed me a painkiller with some water."I am sorry for the mess also." I said and gulped the pill."It will be cleaned in no time but I'd suggest you to take the day off. Besides, there isn't much work for you to supervise. I can manage today." She advised me and about to leave the guest room."Sandra, you are taking too much burden on your shoulders and I really get bored at home doing nothing. I can manage my work here." I said. I couldn't tell her the truth that the house was empty and more haunting without my husband."I informed Mr. Linwood and he is already on his way to here, Ma'am." She repl

Chapter - [ 118 ]

[ Xavier ]The tears in Adeline's eyes give me the most numbing pain than a wound. When Sandra called me and told me that Adeline wasn't herself and exploded, hurting herself in the process.Initially, I thought it was I, whose anger she pelted on her office but when I saw her and the vulnerability in her eyes, I could tell that the story was quite opposite. She looked defeated."Are you going to say something?" Travis asked me."What do you want to hear, Travis?" I looked at him, the glass of my drink kept untouched as I have been engrossed in brainstorming. "Your beautiful wife hurt herself and turned her office upside down, it's unsual for an elegant and patient woman like Adeline to lose her temper like this." He said emptying his third glass."Lucas fucking Greyson, he is blackmailing my wife with her mother's name. Mrs. Greyson had a cardiac arrest last week, she is on medication and the bastard is saying that he'd stop her treatment if Adeline won't comply to his wishes." I t

[ Xavier ]"Please, come inside, Mr. Linwood. Mrs. Greyson is in the living room, she is expecting you to meet her there." A butler told me as he welcomed me inside the Greyson's mansion. The house was quite big and built in modern architectural style but it had so much coldness wrapped in quietness. I can never call it my home. However, maintained a straight posture and followed him inside the house. I just wanted to get out of this place as soon as possible. Mrs. Greyson was sitting on the sofa, reading a book. She looked thin and weaker than the last time I saw her. Hearing my footsteps, she looked up and passed me a graceful smile. She is the older version of her daughters. "Xavier, son. What an unexpected visit?" She stood up and greeted me."I thought I should say hello to my in-laws. These are for you." I replied and gave her the yellow rose bouquet I brought for her.She smelled them."They're lovely. Thank you. Please, have a seat." She offered me generously. "How are yo

[ Adeline ]I felt a strange settlement in my heart after my breakdown in front of Xavier who again presented himself as my knight in shining armor. He promised to bring my mother safely to me but I couldn't calm my heart and mind.I still worried about my mother who needs tending and a healthy atmosphere to get well soon. My father's toxic vicinity will only worsen her condition and I can't lose my mother. I was pacing too and fro in the living room of the villa. Lisa came twice to ask me whether I need a cup of coffee to kill my anxiety but I refused."Ma'am, killing the poor floor won't help you. Let me make a strong cup of coffee or chamomile tea to give you some relief." Lisa again came with worry itched on her face. "I don't need anything, Lisa. Thanks, for taking care of me but you can rest now." I passed her a smile which didn't reach to my eyes."I have prepared the dinner, Ma'am. Please, eat properly before you sleep." She reminded me and signed in surrender as I reluctantl
