“Splash…….”
“Ahh…….”Her own sister pushed her from the bridge and make her fall into the river and now she was sinking deep inside the water with only one thought: why did she do this? Why?Before she could realize anything or call anybody for help, her head banged into hard rock, head reel and after that, she remembers nothing.“Ahh, ouch.”She was trying to open her eyes, but a sharp flash of light pierced her eyes and she couldn’t open them. Her head was aching as it will burst. Even though it was paining, she opened her eyes and saw the entire place was looking white.‘Am I in heaven?’‘No, I am not. The sharp smell of disinfectant filled to my nostrils made me realize that I am not in heaven but in hospital.’“Sarah, are you ok? How are you feeling now?”A familiar voice dragged her attention. She looked and found Stefan in front of her. Stefan Walter, whom she loath till last evening to even have a look, but now she knows he is genuinely concerned for her and it’s all reflecting in his eyes.Sarah tried to get up, and Stefan supported her.“Sarah, I know you are injured, but you have to hurry your pace, otherwise Ashley will take your place and get married to your fiancé,” Stefan said.Sarah frowned when Stefan mentioned Ashley. A picture of a flashback ran in front of her eyes and Ashley’s all deeds came into her mind.“Sarah, are you listening?”Stefan again called her. Sarah knows Stefan is talking about her interest, but she is motionless. Till now, whatever happened to her, it’s all because of Ashley, her own half-sister.For the first time, Sarah’s witty brain and foresight failed her, and she didn’t see the true colors of her sister before, who pretend most caring and loving to her and innocent in front of everybody.When Stefan saw she didn’t move, he called a nurse to hand her over a pair of dress for Sarah and ordered to change her hospital gown, so that she can move.“No, Mr. Stefan Walter, miss Sarah is not stable. I can’t discharge her in a rush.”The doctor denied signing Sarah’s discharge papers, still, Stefan was indifferent.“I don’t care about your opinion; I need to take her from here and nobody can stop me.”Stefan said with rage and beckoned to the bunch of bodyguards behind him, who moved fast to plan to take miss Sarah from the hospital.‘I can’t let her waste even a single minute in this hospital. She is in this situation because of me. Only if I would not come in her life and tried to split Sarah and her boyfriend Ronald Walter apart, she wouldn’t end up like this.’‘It was me who entered their life faking myself lunatic to revenge on Ronald and his father for killing my Valerie and to reach my goal I manipulate Ashley and seek her help to split Sarah and Ronald apart.’‘Despite my crafty plotting, Sarah made me realize my mistake and help me mend my ways, then it’s my responsibility to make her reach at her marriage canopy on time.’“Boss, miss Sarah is ready.”Stefan’s assistant informed him, and he walked inside Sarah’s ward.Although Sarah got to change, her head still had bandaged on and she was stumbling while walking, Stefan noticed this. He leans towards Sarah and picked her in his arms.Sarah felt uncomfortable by Stefan’s action, but she didn’t resist either, perhaps because her emotions were numb. She was heartbroken by the deception of her sister.Stefan made her sit in his Rolls Royce’s copilot’s seat, and he sat in the driving seat after beckoning his guards to follow them.The river drowned Sarah so far that she was hospitalized on the outskirts and that’s why Stefan was driving at his fastest speed to make her reach on the time.While driving,a Stefan looked at Sarah from the corner of his eyes, and his heart ached to see her all silent with no expression.“Sarah, I….. I am, Sarah, I am sorry, it’s all my fault.”Stefan doesn’t know what to say, so he simply apologizes for his mistake, which made Sarah end up in this situation, after all, it's all started by him.Sarah turned her head towards Stefan and said with no expression, “When I unveil your lie, why didn’t you tell me about Ashley being your crime partner?”‘Ahh, that’s a gargantuan mistake I have done when I didn’t tell Sarah that her sister is deceiving her behind her back.’ Stefan thought.“As you made me understand and I mend my ways, I spoke to Ashley and she promised, that she will mend her ways, I didn’t realize that she is so obsessed with Ronald’s love that she will try to kill her own sister.”Stefan said truthfully, but Sarah still didn’t reveal any expression. Nobody can guess what was going on in her mind.“Hmm, then why are you here in search of mine?” Sarah asked.“When I found Ashley is up to something I asked her to confess in front of the entire family and tell what did she do to you, but she was so cunning that she seizes this opportunity and reveled in front of my family that I am not lunatic and came back for revenge on them and my family disowned me.”“Everybody gets what they deserve, you don’t worry.”Sarah said in a painful voice and turned her towards the window, lean back, and support her head at the back of the seat. Stefan gave a deep glare at her calm face and again turned his head to the road ahead.‘Sarah was looking like a silent sea before the storm approaching. I didn’t get the meaning of her words but she is definitely brooding something. I have a gut feeling that she is suppressing her anger at venting it out when the time comes.’ Stefan thought.“What are you going to do now?” Stefan asked, but in return, he got only a blank glare from Sarah.“Sarah,” Stefan called to her again, but she only nods her head.‘I am Sarah Cooper; my life was peaceful until a few months before I came across my half-sister Ashley.’Ashley did so many things behind my back from which I was oblivious to date, but now I introduced the shady sides of Ashley. She has done what she wants, now it’s my turn.I and Ashley were classmates and neighbors since we were young, still we were not a good friend just acquittance. We differ from each other; she was introvert, shy and innocent who can't even speak what she wants and I am an extrovert, expressive, and bold know how to express my thoughts.The difference in our temperament is not the reason for the differences between us, but it's something that was hard to digest.My grandmother Evelyn and her grandmother Marie are long-lasting enemies who can't tolerate even the sight of each other.Whenever they came face to face both of them either taunt each other or slander and none of them can take it without retorting, and their face-off always turns into a huge commotion that entire community echoed with their sounds, and entire neighborhoods were fed up with them.When the animus between the elders is so deep routed, then how can youngsters be friends?Even though I and Ashley were not close still, we always stare at each other as far as we wa
"Ronald Walter, do you take Ashley Miller to be your wife? Do you promise to be faithful to her in good times and bad times, in sickness and in health, to love her and respect her always, all over your life?"Emcee asked the groom in front of him.'This wasn't Ashley Miller. The name must be Sarah Smith. Today I am here to get married to Sarah, the only love of my life and the whole preparation here for my marriage with Sarah, not Ashley.''I don't know why Sarah ran away from marriage and Sarah's mother, grandmother, her relative and even my brother Stefan is also accounting Ashley for Sarah's disappearance.''Ashley is a pure-hearted girl who can't harm anybody intentionally. The poor girl was trying to commit suicide to prove her innocence, that's why I decided to get married to her.''So, what if Sarah betrayed me, Ashley always supported me? Though she is not my love, she is my best friend and I will have to save her.'"Mr. Ronald Walter, do you take Ashley Miller to be your wife?
Ashley's face turned pale. If Ronald would agree to get married to Sarah, then her entire plan will get failed."Sarah, answer me first"Ronald's mother Julia interrupts Sarah harshly, but Sarah ignored Julia and turned to Ronald."Still thinking, tell me whether you love me because this is not love? Ronald, if u truly love me you could have waited for me, but u were going to get married to Ashley."Ronald has mixed emotions through the entire situation now he was frustrated."I was marrying Ashley to save her life. After you elope from your marriage, all were blaming Ashley and you know what she was going to commit suicide."Sarah is already got to see all cards of Ashley, now she is no more interested neither she is patient."So, what do u want from me, now?"Sarah's indifferent attitude, even after listening to Ronald's helplessness, aggravated him."I want my answer. Why did u do this?"Ronald lost his temper and yell, but Sarah didn't buy his anger. She was even angrier."I did no
"Now that everything is finalized, then let's go out, it's time for action," Sarah said while getting up from the couch.Everybody looked towards each other in confusion, then at Sarah, who was looking confidently."What are you going to do?" Laura asked with concern in her eye."Drama, dear mom, those Millers like high pitch melodrama, let then taste their own medicine."Nobody got what Sarah is up, but they all moved out. But Stefan stopped, and he held Sarah's arm to stop her."Mom, aunt Laura, you all go out. I need to talk to Sarah in alone."Everyone nod and moved out, Sarah turned towards Stefan and crossed her arms to her chest."Tell me?""Sarah, are you sure about all this, I mean you want to do this because you will ruin your future. Have you ever imagined about your future?""Are you concern about me or about yourself because after that your future will also get ruined?""I don't care about myself anymore. The day my Valerie died, everything has finished in my life. Whateve

Ashley knew only one thing that she couldn't let Sarah enter the same house as she because Walters is a big clan and the entire family lives together as a joint family then Sarah will also be in the same house and in front of Ronald which could be threatened for her marriage.Although Ashley got married to Ronald, still Sarah is alive and knew all her exploits and what's more, Stefan is now supporting her. They both are very smart and hard to deal with.Till Sarah went to get ready in a fresh bridal dress, Ashley seizes this opportunity to stop this marriage."Mom, please ask dad to change his decision and do not let Sarah get married to Stefan and enter Walter's clan. She is not a good girl."Ashley said to the mother of Ronald, to poison her brain against Sarah."Ashley, it's your father-in-law's decision, and I never interfere in his decision. I believe he will make no wrong decision."Julia denied Ashley's request straightforwardly, making her anxious."Yes, mom, I believe but when
"Ahh...."President Gilbert hurriedly stood up, wiping his exquisite, customized, handmade suit."Sarah, what did you do, you spoiled president Gilbert's entire suit."Ashley said with fake concern and her most innocent face, but the mocking smile on her face couldn't be hidden from Sarah and Stefan.Sarah knew something made her skirt stuck from behind, that's why she tripped and made a mistake with a high-end client of Walters company. Although Stefan and Sarah don't have any proof, still they both are sure Ashley planned it.Stefan hurried his pace and encircled his arm around Sarah's shoulder, taking her in a protective embrace."I am so sorry, President Gilbert, for soiling your suit, but you see my wife is injured and not well, seems like her head reel and she made a mistake."Although Stefan was apologizing and soft, his tone was overbearing.Stefan Walter is a separate name from Walter's company, his own company Phoenix industries is a top company in the city and huge profit-ma
"Now everything is over. It was a quite long day for everybody, so all of you go back to your room and take a rest. Mrs. Walter, please check the arrangements personally for new brides and bridal chambers." Andrew said to his entire clan and everybody bows their head, respectively. "Alright," Julia said. "Hold on, everybody, I want to start a new ritual." Stefan said, gaining everybody's attention. "What?" Everybody said in unison. "As you all see, my newly wedded bride is injured, so from now on I want to start a new ritual in Walters clan, that groom should pick her bride to the bridal chamber." Stefan said and immediately picked Sarah in his arms before she resists. "What say, big uncle?" Stefan said in a naughty way to Andrew. Since Stefan was young, he was close to his big uncle more than his father, but because of some misunderstandings over the past few years there was a gap formed between them and now he was trying to fill the gap. Today Andrew was proud of Stefan im
