Tyler's face sank. His heart shattered to a thousand pieces as his mouth stood agape in fear. Shivers ran down his spine as the angry Lucas scowled at him, shaking him up.Lucas's ba dropped to the ground as his eyes burned with anger. Tyler?!That was the last person on his list?Like how dare him? What's even his problem?So after the disgrace at the car mart, he still had the guts to kidnap his wife.His head hurt badly with the searing pain that was building up in his fist, ready to be released into his face.Tyler was speechless as he sat on top of Freya, her lip gloss all over his lips.A glass of spilled red wine laid on the table, alongside a white powdered substance. He had the guts to kidnap her, drug her and even try to sleep with her?‘Oh God! What would this bastard have done if I hadn't arrived on time?!”Lucas was completely thrown off balance and couldn't even speak. The whole thing just seemed like an illusion to him.“How dare you?!” The words escaped with a growl,

The flickering light in the dark room consumed the area, barely illuminating the room. However, it's warm glow reflected on the faces of the the two troubled men that were hell-bent on finding evidence that seemed not to exist.Lucas's presence alone at the crime scene wasn't enough to charge him for any case. The footage of that night at the hotel was nowhere to be found.Even with Freya's bruises, it still wasn't enough to put him behind bars. They had searched for the footage but the hotel had cleared out all footages that night immediately after the fight. They denied conspiracy with Tyler and even denied knowing anything about the case.Lucas wasn't planning on giving up anytime soon too. Thankfully, Mr Griffin was a man that never gave up so easily.After a tireless night of endless search, they finally found something.“There…” Lucas pointed at the screen. “Enlarge it…”The photo was a photo of Tyler and his father shaking hands with terrorists and also exchanging money in han

After that shameful day at the court, Freya never spoke to him again. In fact, they were worse than room mates living in the same house. She ignored him, never replied his greeting and just hated him. She has every right to be mad at him and he understood too. She has warned him to back down from this madness right from time and he didn't agree, he didn't listen to her and ended up dragging her into shame.Worst of all, paparazzi had captured her pale face that day at the court and had spread it all over the web, tagging her as a woman that tried to steal from Tyler in disguise of rape.The pain of that night haunted her anytime she saw any news that wasn't true about her. She felt like hitting Lucas anytime she saw him, anytime she pictured that night…Lucas on the other hand was a sorry scared cat. He had been humbled flawlessly and now, he had to beg his angry wife to even look at him once again without shedding tears.If it was possible, he would have moved out from the house jus

Freya's scowl was terrifying. Her heart thundered against her chest as her cold tearful eyes were locked on the innocent Lucas…The mind is a powerful weapon and at the moment, it turned out to be devil of the shamed couples.Lucas's mind replayed how he stood in frustration, how he froze, unable to do anything… how he stuttered in front of them all after boasting and bidding for payment… that shame, it was a stigma, one that wouldn't be taken so easily.Freya on the other hand reminisced how she cried in his arms, how she felt safe in his arms, how she felt all her troubles were sorted out, only for him to come and disgrace her in such manner. It now even pained her more that they were running joined account. She would have just paid it by herself if only they weren't running a joint account…Lucas on the hand was confused and couldn't understand why the system that seemed to help him always fucked him up when it was needed the most… the big problem now was the fact that he refused

Days passed after the ball. The couple barely talked to each other. Seeing themselves melted each other's heart and also made them angrier too.Freya couldn't bear the feeling of him humiliating her publicly and still couldn't own up to it up till now, Lucas was torn between conflicting emotions he could barely talk about.However, today, a strange fire burned in his soul. He felt a surge of electricity in his nerves, one that urged him to make things right.The first step at making things right was to cancel any evil plans he had been harbouring for any of his enemies–Lucas and Tyler.Freya's number reason for being angry with him was his uncontrollable rage. But today, that was going to change.“Good morning, love…”That was the first time he had greeted her in a long while. However, her heart was still burning hot with anger, she just looked at him, raised an eyebrow and muttered inaudible words as she headed to the kitchen.Her cold display didn't stop him. He had a deal to sign.
