MasukIris found herself back in the hospital again. The white ceiling, the strong smell of disinfectants, and the scrapes on her body, which she didn't notice during the accident. Not the first, but a second one. The first accident stripped her of her memories, making her go emotionally blind. Now, this one gave her fragments. She is more confused than ever. She didn't have to look around the room. She could tell that Xavier was not there. The room would be filled with his presence when he is around. Now, the room feels empty, just like her emotions. "Oh my god, Iris, you are awake." Catherine's voice floated in the air, making Iris turn her head and look at her mother rushing towards her bed, holding a hospital file. Iris hadn't noticed before, but she was emotionally more invested in Xavier than in her own mother, which felt strange. She should have that deep bond and love for the whom she calls mother, rather than awhosem her emotions are strong and whose memories of him are almost em
"Boss, I think we should give Ms. Iris some time," Luis suggested to Xavier, who is following after Iris like a stalker. He does that every day, but from a distance. She suddenly cut him off from her life, and he is unable to bear this side of her. She is good with everyone, but with him, she is cold. She is looking at him like she is looking at a stranger and a criminal. "You think I am forcing her too much?" he asked Luis. Luis is feeling bad for his boss. Xavier is indeed acting like an obsessed stalker these days, a persona that doesn't suit his image. Moreover, Iris is acting really strange. "Boss, I think Ms. Iris needs time to adjust. This is all new to her. Imagine a person coming and declaring himself as her husband. That's kind of scares anyone. Moreover, Ms. Iris is gentle. She might have been scared when you punched that guy. I think some time away from each other might give her some time to come to terms with all of this. Moreover, things like this should be taken
Iris found herself sleeping in one of the lavish bedrooms in the Morgan residence. Everyone in the Morgan residence is waiting for her. Even James Morgan stopped by to check on her once. Naomi and Tasha are seen sitting beside Iris. "What happened back there? You just fainted. It was your dear husband who carried you to the hospital. You should have seen the look on his face. It was pure panic," Tasha said. Iris is feeling a mixture of confusion and fear. Her heart still skips a beat when she hears Xavier's name. But still, her dream is too vivid to ignore. Those emotions of her old self felt like she was experiencing them again. "My brother might be heartbroken if he finds out about your husband," Naomi mused loudly. Iris shuddered with trepidation. "Let's not mention him again. " Let's just pretend that I never met him," she murmured. Both Tasha and Naomi looked stunned. "What? But why?" they both demanded in union. Iris couldn't forget what she saw in her dream. "I t
Iris is dreaming. In her dream, she saw a man on his knees holding a ring. They were surrounded by people. 'She said 'Yes', the man declared happily. He lifted Iris and started spinning her in the air. That's when Xavier arrived. He looked angry. The scene shifted. Now Xavier is forcing himself on Iris. 'No, Xavier, don't do this,' she begs him to stop. But she is tearing at her clothes like a man possessed. 'No, Xavier, please stop.' Iris saw herself begging. That's when she gasped awake. Her eyes were wide with shock and fear. She is breathing heavily. She couldn't understand what happened. 'Was it a dream? Or my memories?' she wondered. "Kitten? You are awake," Xavier's voice now made her feel scared. In her dream, or if it was in the past, he was forcing her. That scared her. 'There is no way I married someone like that?' She started to feel anxious and confused. He gently placed his hand over hers, but she snatched her hand away. "Don't touch me," she snapped, a tr
In Chelsington, the Knights are glaring at Benjamin. "Mr. Stark, are you declaring war against the Knights?" Arthur demanded angrily. Benjamin looked unfazed. "Mr. Arthur Knight, there was a time when I used to think highly of your family. But that time is not now. So save these dramatics," he replied curtly. Arthur banged his palm on the desk sitting in front of him. "Benjamin, don't think that your legal papers can scare us. They don't. We have seen things like this before. They are just trash," Arthur snapped arrogantly. Benjamin smirked. "Trash? Now this trash is going to drag you to court," he replied confidently. Arthur is beyond angry. "We still have several co-operations running between both companies. If you insist upon doing this, we will cancel all the cooperations," he threatened. Benjamin looked bored. "Go ahead. The Starks group is not an amateur. A few canceled projects cannot do anything for our company. But the legal charges we filed against you can de
"Boss, the Knights are moving again. Received a message from Monroe. Your uncles went to meet Mr. Edward," Luis shared while Xavier and Luis were riding alone in the elevator. Xavier's jaw tightened with suppressed anger. "Looks like they didn't learn yet. Call Jensen and tell him to talk with the media against the Knights," Xavier muttered. "Yes, boss," Luis replied. A second later, his fingers are flying on his mobile screen. He texted Monroe before the elevator opened on the top floor of the Morgan group. "Mr. Knight, good morning." Mr. Morgan was waiting for Xavier outside the elevator. "Morning, Xavier," murmured without stopping. Morgan followed after Xavier. "We selected a few locations for our new exclusive stores. If you check the locations and share what you think, we can finalize the area and start the construction work," Morgan shared. Luis took the file Morgan offered while Xavier entered his cabin. "Mr. Morgan, I will bring back the file once Mr. Knight final
"What are you thinking?" Xavier murmured from over her head. "Nothing" she whispered. She is thinking about how wrong this is, yet how right it is feeling. "Don't lie Kitten. It doesn't sound convincing" he replied camly, with a hint of playfulness. She lifted her head from his chest so that
"Xavier, you are hurting me" Iris whimpered when her wrist started to sting with how tightly he was holding it. They reached Obsidian, and he didn't let go of her hand the entire drive. She sensed that he is angry. May be because she tried to plead for Natasha and Candace. He immediately let go o
Adam and Xavier were watching Natasha and Candace who were kneeling outside. Its just been half and hour since they were kneeling, but they looked like they were struggling. At this rate, they might not be able to kneel for even an hour. They both were standing on the first floor infront of the flo
Natasha found herself surrounded by the Knights women. Rachel, Margaret, Alice, Chelsea, are blocking her path. The contempt on their faces made Natasha uncomfortable. "Oh, if its not the Mrs. Knight of the third generation. After marrying into the Knights, she never comes home to greet her el
