Albert woke up groaning feeling cold all over. He blinked his eyes twice to understand what happened. His hand fell on the cold bed where no one was present.
Ade!Amber!
Was she gone? Did she leave him? Did she regret it?
Panick rushed through his veins. He punched on the nightstand hard. Gripping his hair tightly, he tried to release his tensions.
Fuck! Who asked him to consummate their marriage? Why didn't he control himself? Why did it rush to physical relations?
It was okay for her to be by his side. She was with him and that was enough. But after consuming all of his darkness, how could she leave him? How could she abandon him after being his only home?Albert got up and cleaned their mess. He took the time to calm him though a lot of pain and fear was running through his mind. He took his phone and dialled her number."Hello!" A male voice came to make him more tensed."Mmmm....WAlbert's POV "Hey Victor! Long time no see." That voice..... fuck! I've heard her after long three years. But wasn't she transferred in some other base of the organisation? Why was she here? I looked behind and saw the girl in formal suit. She didn't change a bit except she changed her hair colour. They were good in blonde. The new dark brown didn't suit her well. "Sophia." I muttered clenching my jaw. She was another name of trouble to me. I was happy when mafia organisation transferred her to China. She was really irritating. But now again, I needed to tolerate her nonsense. "Tell me how was the surprise." She asked with a smirk hugging me sensually. Very shocking! The worst surprise of life. "Surprising." I said in a cold tone when she didn't leave me. I didn't want to hug her back. I was not interested in her or in her hugs. Why didn't she understand? "Shit! Victor. You didn't change. Still cold
Knight Enterprises Meeting room Albert was sitting with clench jaw. His eyes reddened with anger, face motionless, cold. Hands on a file grabbing with a tight fist. The person sitting next to him contained a amusing look towards him. Sitting lazily on the chair, he tried to suppress his laughter. "Wait a little. She's coming." The man said looking at Albert carelessly. "Your assistant is late for the meeting. How could you take this kind of person for work?" He was furicious. He never learnt to wait. But this man and his assistant was making him wait for half an hour. Albert didn't want to ruin their business relationship as it was connected to mafia organisation somehow. The man just smiled raising an eyebrow, "She isn't my assistant. Just working for fun." "How can you be so unprofessional?" Albert asked coldly. "Since when I'm professional?" He smirked. Suddenly the door of meeting room
"You wanted to meet me?" Adele asked curiously at Albert who was smoking in front of the French window.He just hummed. He didn't turn neither said anything. Maybe he was waiting for Ryan to go out. And of course that poor boy understood. He stormed out of the room to give his boss privacy."You gave a recommendation letter and found a CEO husband didn't mean you could take the job as granted. I didn't want my company to violate rules and regulations. The people who was irregular to the office, was fired in an instant. Seems like I have gave you too much freedom in work." Albert snorted in a cold tone. He knew again it was his jealously speaking. But he couldn't help. He felt jealous seeing some other men holding her hands.Adele rolled her eyes at him. Jealously overloaded! Didn't she explain Adam's relationship with her? What to do now? For God's sake, she never wanted this kind of life. She never wanted anyone to dominate her and no one dared. She was n
"Adele Wilson, interesting!" Sophia curved her lips in amusement. Her voice was loud enough to grab Albert's attention. He raised his head from the file to look at her questioningly. "She has a really poor friend." She smirked and pointed at Adam's picture. She bumped into Adam with an intention. She tried to know more about his and Adele's relationship. But that spoilt girl....arghh....hurt her ego too much to stay there. Albert looked at her coldly. His fierce eyes were giving her a look saying don't drag her into the dirty game look which made Sophia's smirk bigger. But she shrugged her shoulders, "Seems like she is into too much male friends. How come she went to meet haunter? What's the relation with him?" She faked her thinking and turned to her assistant, "Find if she's any of hunter's girlfriend or something. If yes, we can arrange her to please him." Xavier looked at her with disdain. He knew Sophia had a crush on his boss. He was really afraid
Albert's POV "Tell me box number of haunter. " I was in rush as he didn't want Adele in trouble. Though she was a daring girl, I didn't want to take chance with Haunter. After all he was another name of devil. The recipient looked at me with confusion. But as I was Albert Knight, the ruler of LA, she didn't dare to question. She informed me every details even Adele was in the private box almost for half an hour. Half an hour was not a little time that made Albert more tensed. I rushed all the way to see her safe. I didn't care about the organisation rules anymore. If haunter dared to touch her, I would be torn into pieces by his bare hands. When I opened the door with a bang, my jaw dropped. I was dazed even blinked my eyes to get the situation. Xavier standing a little behind from me was stunned. He was seriously getting useless day by day. I think Adele was right. Did he miss some details of this girl? "Give it to me....." Adele's
Knight Enterprises Meeting Room "What do you want now?" Albert asked coldly to the person sitting opposite to him. He was a man in his early 40's who had 20% share of Knight Enterprises. He was Mason Knight's younger brother who had worked for Elijah Wilson as long as DEINZ was available. "Why did you plan to transfer 50% of it's share to your wife? Didn't you find her not to lose those?" He scoffed at him as he didn't like the idea. He never wanted to lose his control on the company. "My shares, my wish. Anything that concerns you?" Albert had some hatred for his uncle since childhood. He never opened up about that but also never talked to him peacefully. But after his father's death, he found his uncle never cared for them. He just came to Knight Enterprises to get his brother's shares though Mason Knight already transferred it to Albert. "My brother didn't choose the right person for his properties. If he was alive,
Adele's POVKnight!Ramond Knight?The moment I heard Knight, my heart skipped a beat. That was something I suspected even after meeting Albert. But maybe I never wanted it to be true. I knew Mason Knight was the closest to my dad which made me think about him again and again. Moreover he knew my identity and forced his son in marrying me. Though my brain said he could be, my heart replied no. But little knew he would have a younger brother who would be the mastermind of my parent's murder."Adele!!!" I heard Nathan's yelling. He was looking at me with his so called furicious eyes which would turn into crystal clear puppy eyes after getting scolded by me."What?" I scoffed at him."You are not gonna charge Neon Parker? For the past few days, I've been trying hard to gathers proofs against it. Suddenly you came and said you needed all those. I gave you and now you are
"I want to ask you something. " Neon Parker sat opposite to Adam Ricardo while looking at him attentively."What?" Adam had a lot of works. He didn't want to waste time on him."Who are you? I was forced by Jacob Smith to come here. And I know you did it. What's your connection with Jacob Smith?" Neon was seriously curious to know. Jacob Smith was the heir of Smith family which had properties over billions overseas. Smith family chose to rule in Asia as they own the biggest oil businesses of Middle East. A poor officer like Adam Ricardo told and he forced him to come here didn't really give a proper calculation."Jacob Smith? Who is he?" Adam pretended to be surprised. He didn't want to say anything about their connections. He wouldn't have used it if it was not for Adele and their friendship."Don't tell me you don't know him." Neon Parker growled. As if Adam cared!
