I pulled back from the kiss and looked into her eyes while she stared back at me with confusion."I need to tell you something important," I whispered.Her hands fall into her lap as she completely turned her body to me."Everything okay? You can tell me anything," She consoled me. I don't know where to start from but I should begin anyways and figure out the rest later.Layla's POV:My heart was beating rapidly in my chest. I figured that Aiden was a bit worried as soon as I woke up and I could feel that it's related to something he's about to tell me. By the look on his face, I can tell that it's not going to be good."Before my accident, I discovered something but didn't got the right time to tell you about it. And then today I discovered something else and decided it was finally time to tell you everything. I'm sorry I didn't mentioned it before because I just wanted to confirm everything before saying anything," Aiden finally looked me in the eye with the saddest look in it."Wha
I can't believe I'm doing this. I could feel my hand shake and palm sweaty. This is just too early to do anything. It has been three days since Aiden told me about my Uncle and Jared being involved in my past. And since last two days, I have met Jared in private and we talked about my father for straight an hour.Aiden didn't came because he was in a meeting with Tyler that day. Aiden has been busy with his company and meeting people since past three days. That night and early morning at the gazebo was the last time we talked comfortably and in detail. The return of Aiden has been quite chaotic in the business world which made his days chaotic as well.Noah was still helping Aiden while I was busy dealing with my matter. Aiden and Jared gave me all the evidence they have collected over years leading back to my uncle being the culprit. The evidence and timings are not that accurate and I might say that they are a bit odd as well.When Jared and I talked, that made me miss my parents mo
The door opened few seconds after Aiden knocked on it. Those few seconds felt like eternity to me because my anxiety was rising. But as soon as the door opened and my Aunt appeared infront of me with a big smile on her face, my shoulders immediately relaxed and I smiled back at her.My Aunt, Stephanie, looked just pretty as she always have been. She looks tired but still she's giving her best. Her short black hair are completely opposite of my long brown here. My hair is just like my mothers's and Liam had hair just like my father. My aunt is my father's younger sister who was a miracle to my grandparents.Stephanie immediately stepped forward and hugged me tightly."God I missed you so much," Aunt excitedly told me."I missed you too Aunt," I replied with a sense of guilt washing aover me that I wasn't here because of her. I was here to meet my uncle.When she stepped back, she kissed my cheeks and looked at me proudly before her eyes diverted to my friends behind me. I immediately s
I look at Aiden as my Aunt asked a question. I think our group understood what I'm about to do because I exchanged a glance with Amy and she nodded at me. I politely placed my fork on a side and finally looked at my Aunt."I'm dating him, Aiden." I gestured my hand in Aiden's direction as he simply smiled. But my Aunt eyes lit up and I could see a hint of glee in her eyes."Oh my god that's amazing I'm so happy for you," My aunt congratulated us wholeheartedly before turning to Aiden,"My Layla is a gem. Take good care of her at all cost," She warned Aiden in a sweet tone."Oh trust me I know," Aiden replies while smiling at me."Where do you guys work again?" Our attention was next caught by our uncle who was still looking down at his plate and eating liking nothing just happened. This time I look at Amy as she gives me a mischievous smile."Oh have you heard of AZ textiles?" Amy dramatically asked."Who haven't? It's like those most famous company globally. Is your workplace near th
Aiden showed me the USB with a small smile on his face. All feelings and expression passed through my face as his words registered in my brain. I couldn't help but suddenly throw my arms around him as we all continued to sit on the floor. Amy clapped her hands excitedly even when I pulled back from the hug.Just then, Amy and I started clapping each other's hand in excitement. Even though we knew that whatever is in this USB would make me sad but still we were excited that we at least had something on our hands against William."This is why we left early. To examine the evidence we got. We were in Aiden's car for the past hour, and trust me the material in here is reliable," Noah explained while looking at the USB like he wants to kill it. I also want to kill the person for whom we collected this evidence for.Aiden stood up along with Noah and Amy. Then Aiden moved his hand forward towards me so I can get up. I just looked up at him as he continued to speak,"Come on, I'll show you e
Aiden's POV:Today is the day. The day we all anticipated for is finally here. My revenge has finally begin and I am kind of nervous but excited for it at the same time. I am about to make my first move today which is, making my own company go through some crisis.The revenge I have been planning for years is here now. Today, the enemy of Tyler, is going to release the project we have been working on for months. But the plot twist would be that it would all seem like Tyler have cheated on us and gave his important document related to our project to someone. Tyler didn't gave the file away, we did. But we're going to frame him for it.But how did we got the file? Well that's the story of our epic mission last night. All the late night fun we had and how we are not even tired this morning. As not being tired might be related to the excitement that's about to come. Watching Tyler's world crumble down in front of his eyes is the thing I craze the most in this whole world.Last night, we f
Layla's s POV:"Are you all ready?" Noah asked by looking at each one of us."Oh please, you know how much I love drama," Celine replied by flipping her hair back."I think I'm having a nervous breakdown," Amy's hand and legs were shaking."It's going to be fine. I'm actually excited," Aiden might be the only one who had a smile on his face the whole time."I just want to get done with this," Carlos boringly replied.I think this might be the first time we all have gathered together in the same room. When Carlos joined us, Aiden wasn't here with us. And just like that, someone is always missing. But here we are, present in Aiden's office, waiting for the news to break out that Tyler stole our project and gave it to some other company. Waiting for everyone to blame Tyler."Guys I think it's on," Noah announces as soon as he refreshed the business news page.Each one of us shot up from our seats and leapt towards Noah and Aiden's desk where the laptop was placed. We all were pressed aga
Aiden's POV:Tyler was everywhere. And when I say everywhere, it is literally everywhere. Internet, Tv, news, posters, all you need to do is name that place and he's thier. It has been 24 hours since the case of Tyler has hit in public. And I'm not even sure if we should describe his position as hitting the Rick bottom because I believe that he's way underground now.Public and the rich people have been so interested in his case lately that the court announced his sentence as soon as possible which was obviously the life in prison. Because I not only faked my case but involved many other businessman and bribed them to tell the world that I'm not the only person Tyler has conned.Well it was a long tiring journey of setting him up this bad, but here we are, standing in front of the prison. We're here in order to to end Tyler's life finally. Today's the second big day after yesterday. Noah and Carlos are waiting in the car. Layla, Amy and Celine have been extremely busy since yesterday.
