Suspicious friend
Adele's POV
"Nathan Lan!!!" I was feeling like killing him. He gave me more than two hundred files to sign in just one hour. Did he think my hand was a machine to sign without any hesitation? And here he goes, smoking cigarettes in the smoking zone leaving me all behind.
But shouting at him would never make my job easy. So I again gave attention to the files. I could sign those without any problem as I was sure he managed everything with efficiency. But it was my responsibility to recheck. In case of any problem.
When I was busy checking those files, I noticed the phone he left on the table suddenly rang. I was sure the number was in this country. But I never had any interest in meddling in anyone's privacy. Though I didn't want to peek, my eyes went to that again and again.
Not my fault!

Ryan was fit in his tailored shirt and trousers. Though they were casuals, he looked deadly hot in them. Hairs brushed at a side, spiked, hands kept in the pocket he walked all the way with confidence. After walking for more than ten minutes, he found Eva was waiting for him on the bridge. She was always punctual and that's what Ryan loved about her. "You flied all the way to meet me?" He was really happy about that yet he didn't want her to stay here, at least not at the moment. The city was now having a calm. But the storm was in the way, it would destroy so much. Powers would clash and death would be the reward. "Why do you look so gloomy? Aren't you happy to meet me?" Eva pouted, "You are still a little rabbit." He wanted to slap her forehead with her palm. "I'm not a rabbit. Abd whatever, just leave this city. It's not so good to stay here. And you don't
Darkness in our life Battlefield
Fuck! Ryan cursed loudly. He was exactly afraid of this and that happened. He turned his head towards Elora and both of them nodded in understanding. In a blink of eyes, Elora took out a revolver from the back of the sofa and Ryan found it at the telephone stand. As he was a regular visitor to Adam's House, he had the idea where things could be. Since they were cops, they needed to show the estimate of their bullets. So it was good to use unlisted ones, they were safe. Eva was looking at them with confusion. Maybe she didn't expect to see anything like this. It was beyond her expectations. She looked at Ryan with wonder. She knew he was a cop and he needed to fight against bad people but never assumed things were so hard. Now she understood why he was pestering her to return. Before Eva could even react, she was pulled behind the couch and the firing session started. Bot
Darkness in our life Apologies
Adele's POV "Adele!" I noticed Mariah was looking paler than before. I know she needed to work harder because of my absence. But I had no other options. One after another attack was chasing me. I didn't get time to come here. "How are you? How have you been? Do you know how much I tried to find you? But you vanished just like magic." I found her concerned tone and eyes moist. She hugged me so tightly that I could feel the same sense of warmth. "I'm okay. Just a little accident happened back then." I smiled bitterly not knowing how to explain all these. I've never told her about my family background nor my marital status. She just knew nothing about me. "Are you hurt? Was it serious?" She started to panic. I sighed in my mind. Long time anyone except my family cared for me like this. This meant so much to me.

But just don't come here like this." Albert's words confused her. She didn't know why he was requesting so weirdly. He wanted to get her a job instead of this cafe! Was he serious?Mariah looked at Adele and asked about the situation through her eyes. Adele knew why Albert wanted all these. He was afraid of her life risks. She has been with Adele for two months and almost everyone knew Adele had soft corners for her. So he didn't want to take any chances. He just wanted to keep everything safe"And why are you trying to stop me from coming here?" Mariah didn't believe Albert. He was the man she hated most.

Darkness in our life Complicated relationship
"Are you okay? You were hurt. Why did you agree to go car racing?" Lucas was concerned about Alexandra's health. But he was more concerned about the truth of their relationship. It was nothing to digest in seconds. Jacob looked at Lucas with a smirk. That man was concerned about his wife over his father in law. Good! "She was the one to propose about car racing. Don't scold me." Jacob's look was playful yet it contained a stern and waring tone in the depth. Lucas didn't know whether to laugh or cry but for sure he needed to pay for it later. "Come on, Lucas! I'm okay." She wanted to assure him. "Talk less. Your cheeks are not fully recovered." He rolled his eyes. Jacob was looking at the couple with an affec
Darkness in our life About family
"Stop the car." Alexandra suddenly said when she found no reply from Lucas. She understood everything now. The Richardo family owed something to Jacob. So when he was in trouble, they came for aid. Once the cops and the opposing mafia found him like a hungry wolf. His wife got killed. He hid his children somewhere and took the shelter of Richardo's. Then he helped the family in business and made it the richest one in Asia. And if that's true, Ryan and Adam knew everything. They knew Lucas was not the real mafia king. He was just a puppet, just a show off. They knew and that's why they worked with her. Ryan was connected to Elora and Adam was connected to Adele. Because Jacob asked them to have an eye on Lucas. Adam knew everything when he married Elora. All of them played with the Wilson family. But some things were s
Darkness in our life The boss
Adele's POVCan I call myself a sadist? Why am I feeling so much enjoyment seeing that man suffer? Well, he deserved to suffer. He tried to attack us on the car racing track. He helped those kidnappers of sil to escape. Though he was the sacrifice in Jacob Smith's part of plan, still he had connection with the real boss."Ahhhh!!" I heard him groan. His voice was too weak to be heard. Why not? I've been pouring boiling oil on his skin and at the same time cutting his skin deeper and deeper.Actually I was not in the mood to make him split the truth. This had nothing to do with Andrew's case. So taking a legal step was nothing but a foolish move. I thought I would punish him in my ways. Long time, I didn't become brutal. I found I was craving for blood. Enough of being good for the last two years. That gave me nothing but shits.I again cut
Darkness in our life Trap
"Elora, I haven't met you before. You are such a nice girl. At least you love to work more than your sister." Nathan acted as if was just frustrated with Adele. She never cared about her own business."And you think I care about it too much? If I did that, Lucas would have never let me go out of San Francisco. None of us give a damn to his businesses. My poor cousin! He needs to do everything by himself. Believe me we sometimes become a real pain in ass." Elora knew Nathan had reasons to complain but she didn't want anyone bad mouthing about Adele in front of her.Nathan was amused by her behaviour. Seemed like the family was really hard to get. They always work according to their wishes. With a devilish smirk, Nathan said, "I heard you had a flash marriage with Adam Richardo. Rich man!"
