"You called me here to solve your kitchen matters, Tetushka. Do you think I am that free!" Aleksandr hissed at his aunt. Nikita took a long deep breath before moving forward and standing in front of him. "Not me but your wife really thinks that, Aleksandr. I don't know why she is trying to pick up a fight with me unnecessarily. She wants to run the household, she can do that from tomorrow. I don't have any problem with her playing the mistress of the house. She is your wife, it's her right. But Igor got married today and I want to host a family dinner in his honour. I asked Catherine to cook Russian delicacies tonight but your wife wants to eat Italian. I have no issue regarding that too, she can eat whatever she wants to eat. But she ordered Catherine to not cook anything other than Italian or she would cut her hands. That's the reason I called you here to resolve this issue."Aleksandr shifted his gaze to his wife. She was standing at a five feet distance from him with her hands fo
Dinara smiled when she watched her father-in-law kiss Bella before leaving for the office. She couldn't believe that he was that romantic. "And here my husband behaves as if I am his sworn enemy," she muttered under her breath. "Your father is a jerk, Lizi." She said caressing her belly as she talked to her baby. She didn't know what she was having but her heart says that it's a girl. So she named her Lizi. It's been two days since the night she fainted due to stress. But since then, her mother-in-law has been taking care of her like a baby. She was enjoying her time with Bella yet her heart ached to be loved by her husband.The day she married Leonus, she had dreamt a beautiful future with him. She smiled shyly thinking about being romantic with him on her wedding night but all her dreams broke down when he told her the reason behind this marriage. And this gave her an ache she couldn't handle. "Dinara, what are you doing here standing alone? Do you want anything?" Bella asked whe
“Mom, it's not going to change anything between us." Leonus said when his mother asked him to sit beside Dinara at the restaurant while she sat opposite to them.Dinara was silent, she didn't even glance at Leonus when he spoke to his mother. "Sit and have lunch. You are lucky that I am talking to you after the drama you created in front of the doctor." Bella said, gesturing at the chair. Leonus sighed and sat in the chair. For a moment his eyes went to Dinara. She was not even glancing at him, her eyes were fixed on her fingers. He frowned seeing her acting out of her nature. "What do you want to eat Dinara?" Bella asked her with a smile. Dinara raised her head with a gasp as she got startled hearing her name suddenly. "What?" She asked in bewilderment."Are you alright, Dinara? I am asking you what you want to eat?" Bella questioned. "Anything. I will eat anything except for nuts. I am allergic to them." She answered. "Really? Is it a severe allergy?" Bella inquired further. "Y
Aleksandr raised his eyebrows in surprise when He found his father-in-law seated inside the hotel restaurant instead of a business partner, the state Senator, He came to meet. "Nice surprise, Father-in-law." He muttered, giving a side glare to Mikhail who looked down in shame. Even he was not aware of Aaron's presence here. He knew his Pakhan was going to punish him later for his failure. Aleksandr sighed and sat opposite to Aaron. "May I know the reason behind this surprise?" He asked with a smile pasted to his lips. But his eyes, his eyes were burning in revenge. Aaron gave him a side nod. "This is just a reminder, Aleksandr." Aaron answered coldly. "A reminder?" "Yes. A reminder," Aaron let out a breath, joined his fingers together on the table and leaned forward a little. His eyes were hard and his gaze unblinking. "You came to my territory, Velenoso's territory. You insulted my daughter. You threatened my son. And then you dared to threaten my wife!""I didn't threaten you
Aleksandr looked at his wife, she was standing with her back to him, lost in her thoughts but then she threw her cell phone on the bed. Aleksandr pulled his brows together. He understood his wife was angry about something. He stepped inside the room with calculated steps and pulled Aria into his body grabbing her waist from behind. "I am impressed with your planning Tigritsa. The things you are doing to make me fall in love with you…"Aria startled when someone grabbed her from behind. She was ready to attack the intruder but calmed immediately when she recognized his touch. Her husband's touch. "You never cease to amaze me, Tigritsa," He whispered in her ear as He nuzzled his face on her neck. "The revenge game you are playing with me, now you included your father in it, hmm?" He chuckled and caressed her hips, placing a soft kiss on her pulse.Aria frowned at his words. She tugged down his hand from her body and turned around. "What are you talking about Dad?" She asked him confu
“Can I help you with something, Mrs Knight?" Dinara asked as she walked inside the kitchen for some snacks and spotted Bella stirring the pot with something. Bella raised her eyes. "Do you really want to? Things didn't go well the last time you tried your hand at cooking…"Dinara pouted and her shoulders slumped. "I know I don't know cooking but I can always learn. And it was Leonus' fault, he asked me to cook when I clearly told him that I don't know anything about cooking."But then her eyes sparkled and she smiled at her mother-in-law. "But now I am not alone in the kitchen, you are with me so I know that you wouldn't let me burn your kitchen.""Correct. But you didn't come here to help, you wanted something to eat." Bella smiled. "Oh yes, snacks. But they can wait. Now I want to cook. What are you cooking?" Dinara peeked at the pot from behind Bella. "Leo's favourite, pumpkin soup. Come stir it." Bella left the ladle and asked Dinara to take over. It was when Leonus entered th
"I want to meet my family, Igor. Please take me to them," Leigh said as she looked at her husband while he put on his coat. Igor turned and faced her. He was silent for a moment. "We are going to meet Dinara today. I will take you to your family Leigh but you have to make Dinara believe that we were in a relationship for a long time."Leigh gave him a small nod. "I will but please take me to my family. I want to meet my brother." Igor nodded. "Let's go, we are getting late. Dinara must have reached there," he said and they both walked out of their room. But when they reached Igor's car Nikita was already standing there, dressed in a black dress with black shades on her eyes.Leigh stiffened seeing her and hid behind Igor. "Are you going somewhere, Mamushka?" Nikita removed her shades and nodded. "Yes. I am coming with you both. I want to meet Dinara too.""Mama no. I know you are angry with her and I don't want you to hurt her again. Pakhan wouldn't like it. You know how protective
"Who?" Aleksandr asked Igor, raising his eyebrows. "La eMe. Diego attacked our drug deal with Armenians. He has started an open war against us, Pakhan. We have lost three drug consignments to him in the past week. When I called Diego to talk about the issue, he denied talking to me and…" Igor went silent and looked down. "And what Igor?" Aleksandr asked as He stood off his chair and circled the desk before standing in front of his councillor. "And what?" He gritted again as He sharpened his eyes. Igor swallowed and let out a breath. "And he said that 'If you have guts then come and get your drugs from him.'"Aleksandr chuckled as He gave a curt nod to his councillor. "He talked about my guts?" He said scratching his beard chin with his thumb. "Guts. What a beautiful word isn't it?" He said and glanced at Mikhail Who understood that His Pakhan wanted him to call Diego at once. He pulled out his phone and called Diego's right-hand man who picked up the call on the third ring. Aleksa
