A bet on life
"Adele Wilson, interesting!" Sophia curved her lips in amusement. Her voice was loud enough to grab Albert's attention. He raised his head from the file to look at her questioningly.
"She has a really poor friend." She smirked and pointed at Adam's picture. She bumped into Adam with an intention. She tried to know more about his and Adele's relationship. But that spoilt girl....arghh....hurt her ego too much to stay there.
Albert looked at her coldly. His fierce eyes were giving her a look saying don't drag her into the dirty game look which made Sophia's smirk bigger. But she shrugged her shoulders, "Seems like she is into too much male friends. How come she went to meet haunter? What's the relation with him?" She faked her thinking and turned to her assistant, "Find if she's any of hunter's girlfriend or something. If yes, we can arrange her to please him."
Xavier looked at her with disdain. He knew Sophia had a crush on his boss. He was really afraid

Albert's POV "Tell me box number of haunter. " I was in rush as he didn't want Adele in trouble. Though she was a daring girl, I didn't want to take chance with Haunter. After all he was another name of devil. The recipient looked at me with confusion. But as I was Albert Knight, the ruler of LA, she didn't dare to question. She informed me every details even Adele was in the private box almost for half an hour. Half an hour was not a little time that made Albert more tensed. I rushed all the way to see her safe. I didn't care about the organisation rules anymore. If haunter dared to touch her, I would be torn into pieces by his bare hands. When I opened the door with a bang, my jaw dropped. I was dazed even blinked my eyes to get the situation. Xavier standing a little behind from me was stunned. He was seriously getting useless day by day. I think Adele was right. Did he miss some details of this girl? "Give it to me....." Adele's
Darkness in our life Finding the mastermind
Knight Enterprises Meeting Room "What do you want now?" Albert asked coldly to the person sitting opposite to him. He was a man in his early 40's who had 20% share of Knight Enterprises. He was Mason Knight's younger brother who had worked for Elijah Wilson as long as DEINZ was available. "Why did you plan to transfer 50% of it's share to your wife? Didn't you find her not to lose those?" He scoffed at him as he didn't like the idea. He never wanted to lose his control on the company. "My shares, my wish. Anything that concerns you?" Albert had some hatred for his uncle since childhood. He never opened up about that but also never talked to him peacefully. But after his father's death, he found his uncle never cared for them. He just came to Knight Enterprises to get his brother's shares though Mason Knight already transferred it to Albert. "My brother didn't choose the right person for his properties. If he was alive,

Adele's POVKnight!Ramond Knight?The moment I heard Knight, my heart skipped a beat. That was something I suspected even after meeting Albert. But maybe I never wanted it to be true. I knew Mason Knight was the closest to my dad which made me think about him again and again. Moreover he knew my identity and forced his son in marrying me. Though my brain said he could be, my heart replied no. But little knew he would have a younger brother who would be the mastermind of my parent's murder."Adele!!!" I heard Nathan's yelling. He was looking at me with his so called furicious eyes which would turn into crystal clear puppy eyes after getting scolded by me."What?" I scoffed at him."You are not gonna charge Neon Parker? For the past few days, I've been trying hard to gathers proofs against it. Suddenly you came and said you needed all those. I gave you and now you are
Darkness in our life A sudden proposal
"I want to ask you something. " Neon Parker sat opposite to Adam Ricardo while looking at him attentively."What?" Adam had a lot of works. He didn't want to waste time on him."Who are you? I was forced by Jacob Smith to come here. And I know you did it. What's your connection with Jacob Smith?" Neon was seriously curious to know. Jacob Smith was the heir of Smith family which had properties over billions overseas. Smith family chose to rule in Asia as they own the biggest oil businesses of Middle East. A poor officer like Adam Ricardo told and he forced him to come here didn't really give a proper calculation."Jacob Smith? Who is he?" Adam pretended to be surprised. He didn't want to say anything about their connections. He wouldn't have used it if it was not for Adele and their friendship."Don't tell me you don't know him." Neon Parker growled. As if Adam cared!

Adele stood in front her parent's couple picture and talked to the them with all of her heart. She didn't think the house didn't even change a bit. It was like before, still same as her childhood memories."Excuse me?" The cold tired voice called from behind. Ramond Knight was informed that a girl came to meet him. When he came out, she was looking at Elijah Wilson and his wife's photo even without blinking.Adele turned around to face him. There was fire in her eyes, anger and hatred in heart but a smile on her lips. She looked at him from top to bottom and gave a small nod, "Mr. Ramond Knight?" Her voice was too much calm."Do I
Darkness in our life Albert knew it
Adele's POV "Ade!" "Ade!" I heard a little portion of Albert's voice. When I opened my eyes slowly, the environment seemed unfamiliar. So I snapped my eyes and started to sit. Albert patted my shoulder with care and said, "Calm down! It's Robert's house. You have been here before." I looked at him with all of my tiredness. He gave me a small smile, "That's my room which I never used. Actually last night it was nearer. So I took you here. Your condition was not well." He explained the thing and helped me to lean on the headboard. "You okay?" He asked. I nodded. I was feeling really good now. The thing happened last night was really unpredictable. But I didn't feel anything like that now. I was feeling too fresh as if it never happened. "Hungry?" He asked again. I wanted to refuse but he didn't give me a chance. He picked me on his shoulder and went downstairs. "Put me down! I can walk!" I wa
Darkness in our life An arrest warrant
Knight Enterprises "What?!! El came to LA? And you are telling me now? How could you forget?" Adele was feeling like pulling Haunter's hair. Elora was being stubborn and he took her here. He shouldn't have done that. He city was full of danger. "Because of you. Did you ever think how much drama you created in just one day? I couldn't even see her yesterday. I don't know what's he doing." He frowned remembering Elora was too reckless and impulsive. She liked to take decisions instantly not thinking about results. Adele took a deep breath and sat on a chair. She didn't know how to handle that childish girl. Albert was looking at them with confusion. He understood it was Elora who snorted at him that day. Now he knew why couldn't he find any words to scold her. Her aura was similar to her mom. He felt that somewhere. "But I found those who attacked you yesterday and they are now in torture room. I need to look after them. So I'm get going." H

Adam instructed his subordinates to treat Ramond Knight well and stayed here to have a talk with Adele.Standing a little behind, Albert was glaring at the friends and Ryan was having a smirk mentally. That poor assistant was too afraid to show his real emotions. He knew his ruthless boss would make him less from the world then."Ade! Come on! You're being too emotional." Adam patted her head and broke the hug. He knew she was feeling vulnerable. Those pains, hatred and tears of 14 years were yet to get released."Thanks for coming here to help me."
