"We have removed the bullet. She is out of danger now but still unconscious. You can see her once she is shifted to the ICU. But it will take some time for her to get conscious. A few days might be possible." Dr Gill informed Aleksandr and the Knight family. He looked agitated while speaking as Aleksandr's threat still rang in his ear. Only he knew what his condition was while performing the surgery. "You may leave, doctor," Aleksandr ordered him and the doctor left with a nod."Bella, I think you should head home. You need rest." Aaron said to his wife who looked pale and distraught with continuous crying. He was also worried about his daughter but he was not so open about showing his emotions. His wife was a completely different question. She wears her emotions on her sleeves. "No. I am not going anywhere. My daughter needs me and I am staying here with her until she gets fit and fine. I don't trust anyone with her," she threw the words looking at Aleksandr who arched his brows and

"Do I have to tell you what to do in a situation like this, Mikhail? Call that bloody senator and ask him to control his commissioner or he can say goodbye to my money in his next election." Aleksandr snapped at Mikhail who nodded in understanding. "And as for Tetushka. Make sure she received the best treatment in every way. I can't leave from here but you go and check if everything is fine there or not." Mikhail raised his eyes and swallowed in fear before speaking. "Pakhan. Igor is there. I have already sent security to the hospital."Aleksandr sharpened his eyes as He listened to Mikhail. "I want to stay here with you. After the attack, I don't find it right to leave you alone."Aleksandr chuckled and then burst out in full-blown laughter. "Are you worrying about me, Mikahil?"Mikhail felt conscious. He knew Aleksandr didn't like the emotional talk but he couldn't stop himself from reacting in this manner. It was not the first time he noticed a shootout like this, it was not the

"What kind of joke is this?" Aria snapped at him. "I don't love you or anyone else." She said, snatching her hand from him.Aleksandr shook his head. "Talk about me, not anyone else. When you say love your next word should always be my name, I Love Aleksandr. See how good it sounds. Now don't be shy and say these words to me, Tigritsa."Aria gave him a blank look, doubting his conscience for a second. Then she scowled at him. "In your dreams, Aleksandr Fedorov. I don't believe in this word. Obsession. That's what I have for you. That's it!"Aleksandr chuckled and got closer to his wife who for the first time looked flustered. "Aria…," He clicked his tongue inside his mouth while staring at her for a long minute. "Why are you running away from your feelings, Aria? There is no one else here except for us. You don't have to hide your feelings for your husband. I need to know. C'mon darling, say that you love me.”Aria gave him a hard and fed up look. "Shut up! Just shut up. I don't love

Aria eyed the blonde nurse who was stealing glances at Aleksandr while checking her blood pressure. The previous nurse was an old lady but due to some family emergency she was on leave. Now, her duty was handed over to this blondie who had been ogling her husband since she came to the room. Aria eyed her husband, He was busy talking to someone over the phone in the corner. Only his left profile was visible but He looked like one dashing hot piece of cake. Aria was glad that He was not staring back at the nurse. Because if He had turned his ocean blue eyes on the nurse in that way, she would have plucked his eyes out of their sockets. Yes, Aria was possessive and territorial. "How is it?" She asked the nurse in a sharp tone. The blonde woman finally averted her gaze to Aria and raised her brows in askance. "I am sorry I didn't hear your question, Madam. Can you repeat it?”"You will if you stop gawking at my husband and focus on your work!" She snarled, making the girl startled by t

"I was thinking about my family. Mom must be worried about me," Aria said, holding his hand and taking it away from her chin politely. Aleksandr eyed the gesture silently and pulled his hand back.His brows pulled together. "You mom," He sighed and nodded. “... Yes. She is really worried about you. Fine, let's go to your home first. You will meet your mother and I will meet my Dinara. She was tense for me when you were shot."Aria frowned. "Worried about you when I was shot? Are you not mistaking your sentence? I was the injured party here, Aleksandr."He smiled. "But I was the one dying in pain, Aria." He said with all the sincerity in his eyes that Aria's breathing hitched for a moment. Aleksandr was looking at her so unpretentiously that she even forgot to blink her eyes. Aleksandr chuckeld when she kept staring at him, "what are you staring at? Say something." "Who are you, Aleksandr? And what have you done to the man who was my sworn enemy?" She couldn't help but ask him, sti
