Chapter 21

Audrey POV

Uncle? Zain is Raymond’s uncle? How is that even possible? Could my luck get any worse?

Earlier when Raymond had called him uncle, he barely grunted a reply and I could tell they really didn’t get along. Zain just asked me to get into his car. We’ve been driving for about ten minutes now and he hasn’t said a word to me.

His eyes are fixed ahead and a clear frown is on his face as I glance at him for the umpteenth time. He’s clearly upset that I was trying to use him to mak

  • Circle of Love   CHAPTER 133

    CHAPTER 133ZARA POVI sat in the dimly lit corner of the club, sipping my wine, a small, satisfied smile curling on my lips as I quietly watched the activities around me. A number of the customers were moving about, laughing, chatting, oblivious to the games being played in the shadows. It was amusing, really. They had no idea.Audrey was gone now, storming off in her self-righteous anger.I could still feel the tension hanging in the air from our little confrontation. I took another slow sip from my glass, letting the rich taste of the wine slide down my throat as I considered the scene that had just unfolded.She thought she had the upper hand. She thought her little declarations of loyalty to Zain would throw me off. How amusing.After a few more moments of silently observing the room, I set my glass down gently on the table and reached into my bag, my fingers brushing against something cold and metallic. I pulled out the small, dark device, no bigger than the palm of my hand.

  • Circle of Love   CHAPTER 132

    CHAPTER 132(AUDREY POV)I stepped out of Elora's bar and into the crisp night air, my footsteps slow and hesitant as I made my way to the roadside.I paused, rubbing my arms, though it wasn’t the cold that bothered me.It was everything that had just happened inside there few minutes ago.What the hell had I been thinking? Emphasis? Leaving a perfectly good evening with Zain just to come all the way here to see her?His ex-girlfriend, of all people.I sighed, my breath visible in the cool night air. It was indeed a stupid idea, an idea only triggered by unnecessary jealousy. Why was I even jealous when I was the one getting married to him in a short while. Worse still, I had lied to Zain to get here. Told him it was just a quick work call…something so harmless, so normal, that even I almost believed it.And now, I would have to lie to him again when I got back.I would have to look him in the eyes, knowing I had snuck off to meet Zara without telling him. What was I even thinking?

  • Circle of Love   CHAPTER  131

    CHAPTER 131(ZAIN POV)I pulled up to the mansion, the gates looming ahead like sentinels, cold and imposing.The moment I honked once, they began to open without hesitation. No delays.The guards were at their posts, saluting as I passed through, but I didn’t acknowledge them.I couldn’t. My head wasn’t in the right place for pleasantries, not after the way the night had unfolded.My fingers tightened around the steering wheel as I navigated through the driveway, headlights cutting through the dim light of the evening.I couldn’t stop thinking about Audrey.She had left so abruptly, right in the middle of an evening I had planned for us, for us.I sighed, shaking my head as I tried to push away the frustration gnawing at me.The memory of that phone call lingered, though. A private number. Some vague voice. What had been so urgent that she couldn’t wait?I glanced at the empty seat beside me and my chest tightened. It wasn’t just the fact that she left, it was the way she left.Q

  • Circle of Love   CHAPTER  130

    CHAPTER 130(AUDREY POV)The dim lighting of Elora’s bar cast a soft amber glow over everything, but it did nothing to soothe my anxiety and rising nerves. I had told Zain it was just a quick work call, a lie so smooth I almost believed it myself. He trusted me, and the weight of that sat uncomfortably in my chest as I walked deeper into the bar.My eyes swept the room, and there she was. Zara sat in the far corner, shrouded in shadows, her body language radiating control. The body language of someone who felt she was born to hold sway over others without even trying.She wasn’t fidgeting. She wasn’t looking around nervously. No, the Zara lady was actually waiting for me.Her fingers drummed rhythmically on the edge of the table, her gaze already locked on me as if she was so sure I would come….just for the mere fact that she said so.Each step I took was slow, measured, deliberate, though my heart pounded loudly in my chest. Was it even right to be here? Should I have ignored

  • Circle of Love   CHAPTER 129

    CHAPTER 129(ZARA POV)I leaned back in my chair, the smooth, cold surface of the dining table beneath my fingertips.The room was quiet, but my mind was far from still.Too many thoughts were in my head, too many schemes. The burner phone sat beside me, screen black and silent, but soon it would play its part.I had found out exactly where Zain and Audrey were spending their evening.Some quaint looking park area downtown, the kind of place that pretended to be charming but screamed of pretence.Perfect for what I had in mind. My lips curled, a smirk tugging at the corner. It was time.I picked up the burner phone, feeling the cheap plastic cool in my palm, and dialled the number, switching my privacy settings to “hidden” before tapping the call button.The phone rang twice before a familiar voice filled the line, steady but curious.“Hello?”I steadied my breath, letting it catch in my throat for just a moment before I lowered my voice into a rough, unfamiliar rasp. “Hello sir you

  • Circle of Love   CHAPTER 128

    CHAPTER 128(AUDREY POV)I opened my eyes slowly the next morning. I had just woken up from a really happy dream.For a moment, everything felt real.every detail was so vivid, almost as if I had truly stepped into another world.I had dreamt about my wedding day with Zain, and from what I saw it was like an event spun straight from heaven.Sunlight bathed the scene in gold, and everything felt perfect. Zain in a golden stood tall beside me, his eyes locked with mine in that way that always made my heart flutter.Our families surrounded us, familiar faces glowed with joy, their laughter echoing like music in the air.My beautiful mother was radiant as always, standing proudly by my side, her smile brighter than I had seen in years.It was as if the whole world had been draped in happiness.But it wasn’t just the beauty of the day that made me smile.No, it was actually Zara…Zara of all people.The very same woman who have been a thorn in my flesh for sometime now.In the dream,
