AGAINST THE FATES Kidnapped
Adi walked from the airport's parking towards the lounge with a grim face followed by his assistant and two other people though they maintained a distance from the man. It was clear to all that their boss was in a 'mood'. To add to their woes, the airport seemed to be extra crowded today while the VIP entrance for private planes was closed. To say he was angry would be an understatement. He wanted to cancel everything and spend his time with Faith but instead, he had not even been able to talk to her today, let alone be with her. She had been so busy during the day that he had been tempted to just go and kidnap her. He'd yearned to ask her to come with him on this trip. Maybe he could come clean about the secrets of the past. But now... maybe once he was back, he'd plan a holiday with her instead of a working trip. If she agreed.His thoughts were interrupted by a silhouette that resembled Faith and he stopped to look. But there was no one. However, he had taken only a few steps when

Present Day 2022 Lights flashed along the long red carpet that led up the stairs to the big ballroom. Gradually, young stars and starlets strutted up the red carpet amid the flashing lights of the paparazzi and the fanfare of fans who screamed the names of their favourite celebrities. A low buzz of excitement seemed to be rushing through the crowd of paparazzi who were enthusiastically clicking away at their cameras. The undercurrent was almost palpable because soon the main guests of the show would be attending the award show that was being hosted tonight by G & H Entertainment. The nation's three most eligible bachelors were going to be attending the gala together. A first time in the short history of the prestigious music awards Adi Grenier, the CEO of G&H Entertainment was the first to appear, sending many females and males present there to almost swoon at the sight. Dressed in a custom-made black suit over a double-breasted jacket, the man looked like a model who had just walk

From her body to her eyes, nothing betrayed the storm brewing inside her as all remained calm on the surface.A gentle smile played along her lips as "Here comes the bride" started to play and the ornate doors of the old Victorian church opened slowly.

Spring 2005 "I love the rains. They are so beautiful." This was what she thought every time it rained. As she watched the water falling incessantly, she gave a happy smile and sipped at her hot chocolate. "This is the best life ever! Drinking hot chocolate, reading your favourite Pride and Prejudice and watching the water, fall in droplets, while sitting at the window. Just as her eyes turned back to her book, Faith heard her mother calling out," Fifi! Have you set the table and finished the preparations? The guests will be here any minute!" With a huff, Faith placed her book on the side and picked up her chocolate mug before going down the stairs. "Mama! Who are they and why do they have to stay with us?" Faith actually loved having guests staying over but not when they ruined the perfect weather for reading! And especially not when they were almost strangers! "Hey! It's my best friend you are talking about! I have never stopped from having G

“I hate the rains." Adi could not help but groan as he watched the torrent of water falling in front of him. His plan had been pretty simple. Have lunch, look around the campus and then leave immediately. But now that plan had been washed away by the pouring rain. "Well then, you shouldn't come here for your further studies. It rains six months out of twelve here." He heard the sly gloating voice and turned his head to see the girl. She sounded particularly pleased over his misery. Why was that? "Did I offend you by any chance, Fifi?" Faith widened her eyes at this. " Of course not! We have only met. How could you have offended me? What a question?" Shaking her head, she turned away and muttered under her breath," It's because of you that I cannot read and now I am imagining Mr Darcy with you face. " "You said something?" "No. Nothing." Seeing that she was not required to take the guest around the campus anymore, Faith decided
AGAINST THE FATES She Did What?
Adi Grenier smiled and helped his wife with the clip for the necklace and gently kissed her shoulder. "You look pretty, Kathy!" "Thank you Adi. It really is a beautiful gift." "I am glad you liked it. Let's leave Kathy. It is time to check out." As Adi turned to him Kathy could not help herself and caught his wrist, "Adi? Do we have to go back so soon? Can we not have a longer honeymoon?" Adi sighed. "Kathy. I already told you when you insisted on having the wedding this weekend that I would not be able to take a longer leave. I have important clients coming in this evening and I cannot wait longer." But Kathy did not let go. "Then next time. Can you promise me the next time, Adi? When this project is finished, then will you let me be with you longer?" Finally, Adi pulled his hand out of her grasp and answered coldly," Kathy. I already warned you that I don't like clingy women. You and I may be husband and wife but we are not in love and do not have normal marriage. So, it would
AGAINST THE FATES We Played Again
In the past: Faith could not have expected that she would not be able to keep her promise to Mr. Darcy once again as she stared down at the cards that she had been dealt. While yesterday the two had battled it out in the many games of chess, Faith had discovered that Adi was a good card player also. Thus, with the rains still going hard at it, she had asked if he would be willing to teach her. Cards had always fascinated her. But sadly the only game she did know to play was Speed. And she was pretty bad at it! Somehow, she always ended up remaining the last person, her cards still in hand. "So, which game do you want to learn?" "I don't even know the names of the games. Just teach me anything." Adi, stopping mid shuffle, looked at her in surprise. "How can you not know any game? Your father is an expert!" "And mother is of the firm opinion that girls should not gamble!" "Really? Aunty does not come across as old fashioned..." "She isn't in some things. But the ones she does bel

Andrew Heming sipped at his glass slowly as he listened to the private investigator give his report. It was certainly not what he had expected. His dear wife who was about to become his ex had been having the time of her life since serving him the divorce papers."So, she has not had any contact with anyone other than her best friend and her lawyer?""No, sir. Not even when she has gone out dancing and clubbing the only people are Miss Grace and Mrs Faith. There have been many times when men have tried to approach the two women but both have always been rejecting them.""I see. And what about Adi?"The private investigator frowned at the sudden question. They were discussing the man's wife, how did Adi Grenier come up in the conversation?"Sir? Mr Adi?""Hasn't she been in touch with Adi?
