I REGRET EVERYTHING
"I..." Teressa's voice trembled as she mumbled, "I didn't wanted any of those.... I was just jealous of that no name woman having everything I desired, that's why...." Adrian crossed his arms with a disgusted look in his eyes, "so, you tried to bully an innocent child just because of your stupid jealousy, is this what you're trying to say?" "I'm sorry.... I'm really sorry...." "Do you think your sorry will justify everything you've done to my child?" His voice is still ringing in her ear, they're measured and unhurried.Teresa already knew what was going to happen to her, she doesn't want to scream or beg him anymore.There's no need for her to ask why anymore, as she is well aware that this man is very well prepared to torture them for what they've done to his son.She realised it since the first night they were brought to this place that there might be no returning from this place.The moment she heard the others calling him My Lord, the moment she saw everyone bow their heads b
IS SHE STILL ALIVE?
"My Lord," Lysandre looked at Adrian quietly, "you don't need to come here all the way, we will take care of these bastards for you." "Yes my Lord," another one from their team said, "rather than wasting your time by coming all the way here, you can spend with your son." Adrian took out a cigar and lit it, while his eyes darkened in anger, "I know you people can handle it, but I want to torture them by myself, only then I can be satisfied...." "Young master thinks you're a calm and kind gentleman, if he knows you have such a side, don't you think he'll be afraid?" Lysandre raised an eyebrow pointing at dual personality Adrian shows based on people in front of him.Adrian rolled his eyes, "my son will never know this side of mine! There's no way I'm going to let him this side of mine." "So, are you planning to pretend in front of him forever, my Lord?" A woman from their team giggled, Adrian frowned slightly, "when did I pretend? I'm being the way I'm..." Lysandre chuckled, "yes,
IS THIS PRACTICAL PROTECTION?
"What do you mean by that?" Aurora met Christian's gaze without flinching.Crossing his arms, Christian repeated the question, "I'm asking you what's the real reason behind you doing all these, I hope this time I'm clear enough for you to understand what I'm asking.... So, now can you tell me the real reason?" "The real reason is that your team is efficient," Aurora said with a calm smile, "underutilized, and currently being watched by people who would benefit from your failure, if I were to be directly involved, it'll be helpful for the project's smooth process, isn't it?" Christian’s jaw tightened slightly."That’s honest," he said. "Almost too kind."Aurora smiled faintly. "I don’t do anything out of kindness Chris, I do practical things because I'm a person with practical thinking." He leaned back in his chair, while fingers tapping once against the armrest. "So, is this practical protection?" She paused, just a fraction of a second, then spoke calmly, "This is just a mutual b
WHAT DID I DO?
"I feel like," Andrew said while flexing his hair, "these days, all we have to do is relaxing while working is going to happen automatically on its own, isn't it great?" Kira sighed at his words, "only a lazy dumbass like you could think of things like these." "I agree with Kira," Tanya said while throwing a pen at Andrew, "just because a few things are resolved, that doesn't mean we can be relaxed, we are not sure when... What might happen!" Andrew shrugged his shoulders dramatically and looked at Christian, who had been silent throughout the entire conversation, only sipping his coffee like an innocent bystander."Hey, Chris!""Huh?" Christian blinked, finally looking up."What kind of a friend are you?" Andrew asked with fake hurt, placing a hand over his chest.Christian frowned at dramatic behaviour. "Now what happened? What did I do?" Andrew pointed at the women around the table like they were criminals in court. "We are the only men in this group, these women are bullying m
I'M NOT GAMBLING WITH HIM
"No," Rosaline replied calmly. "I thought you'll take forever to give your answer, so after hearing to your answer, I’m just relieved you’re brave enough to say yes."Aurora narrowed her eyes. "Or foolish enough to say yes as soon as you've asked." Rosaline chuckled at Aurora's playful response. "Bravery and foolishness are sisters, they always arrive together, so don't think too much about the decisions that are already taken, nothing changes, it's not that I'm sending you to a war or something for you to complain this much, the task i gave you is very simple!" Aurora stared at her for a long moment."You know," she said slowly, "for someone who claims to love him, you’re surprisingly willing to gamble with his emotions." Rosaline didn’t deny it."I’m not gambling with him," she said gently. "I’m gambling with myself, there's a huge difference in between those both things." That shut Aurora up.For a moment, neither of them spoke.The cafe around them remained quiet, soft music,
DO YOU KNOW THAT?
"I…" Aurora hesitated as she isn't sure what to reply to Rosaline's deal.The word barely left her lips before it dissolved into silence.Rosaline didn’t rush her, she didn’t fill the gap with pressure, didn’t lean forward, didn’t even tighten the situation.She simply waited as she wanted Aurora to give a response wholeheartedly than being rushed because it's a matter of life and she can't take it as a joke.The more she waited the more Aurora started becoming tensed, since it's a kind of waiting that didn’t feel like patience, but like certainty.Aurora stared at the hand extended across the table. It was steady, and calm, not trembling, not even desperate.It wasn’t the hand of a woman begging, it was the hand of a woman offering something already decided, that's the reason why Aurora couldn't come to a conclusion so soon.Rosaline tilted her head slightly and said softly, "I know we have to think twice before taking any decision, but in this I don't understand what's making you t
