Double trouble, double love

Catherine's spirit left her soul for a split second. It seemed the world was against her and she prayed it was a dream or he was Joking.But no, Vikram doesn't joke. " Ex ex ..Excuse me…Sir?" Without looking up at her, he retorts " You heard me right, you are fired. Tell the accountant to arrange your payments for you then leave. I never want to set my eyes on you anymore."Tears glistened in her eyes as she fought as hard as she could to hold the tears back from dropping."Please leave," He said again, smirking when he looked up to see her still standing there. She takes her turn and leaves the office and goes straight to the accountant to get her money."You mean the boss fired you? Oh no, I'm so sorry Catherine" The accountant sympathized with her and she quickly took the dollar notes from her hand rushing away so that her tears would not drop.She hated being pitied or sympathized because it sounded like mockery to her. Without saying a word to any of her office colleagues she

"Nooooooooooooooo!!!!!!" Catherine screamed, grabbing her mom tightly in a hug as tears rolled down her eyes"Please don't leave me, Mom" She looked at her face, dazzling with beauty and a faint smile, Catherine could not believe that her mom was no more.An hour later, the door was forced open and her Dad, Jessica, and Natasha rushed into the ward. Natasha's eyes were already red and her face swollen. "What happened to my mom?'' Natasha asked, running into her mom's embrace."Oh no!!" Jessica said and sobbed covering her face as if in a cry and Catherine turned and looked at her with a disgusting expression on her face.Her dad just paced around the room, without a single word or tear dropping from his eye.As the room echoed with screams from Natashia and Catherine, the same screams transcended to the cemetery where her mom's body lay.Everyone present at the burial site wore black clothes and Jessica stood far from the crowd, crying.When it was time for each family member to put

They all came out of the car while only Travis and Catherine went ahead. "Boss, your mom is calling" The guy who sat at the back with Catherine ran ahead stopping Travis as he turned to face him while Catherine watched him talk."Tell her to chill down a bit, I will be there soon,"Travis replied unbothered and moved away from him and Catherine followed behind. Inside the nail salon, Catherine sat down to wait for her turn to be attended to when Travis walked up to the woman in charge."I want her to me attended to." He pointed towards Catherine. "Fast delivery, would be charged an extra five hundred dollars but she still has to wait for this person I am attending to." The woman replied and continued with the hair she was rolling."Look here, I'd double it." Travis replied in a cold voice but the woman declined "No".It was no hard thing to leave the salon to another place but since they were in a hurry, Travis had to auction.I'd triple it" He said to her and she lifted up her head a

As Travis and Catharine followed Mrs. Carolyn inside the house to settle down. A tall fair lady climbed down slowly from the staircase and Travis and Catherine raised their heads up to see who that was."This must be the girl my mom said she kept for me. "Travis said in his head and Mrs Carolyn got up walking towards the lady who appeared, introducing her to Travis."Hi "She waved at him and he waved back with a smile."Chloe, meet my son I told you about" Mrs Carolyn pointed to his direction."Hi," Chloe said again, stretching her hands towards Travis for a handshake. "Nice to meet you" Her smile disappeared instantly as Travis did not bring out his hands either. Travis folded his hand and coldly replied" Nice to meet you too Chloe" and immediately stood up."Mom, I need to rest, it's been a long day, Mom" Travis took Catherine's hand as she stood up too.The look on Mrs. Carolyn's face spat anger as she tried to control her tone "Okay... I thought you would stay longer here with us

"What?" The word escaped from Catherine's lips. She couldn't believe her ears as Travis sank on the bed."Don't worry, you are safe like I said. If you had read properly, I mean the contract. You would see that there's no sexual duty for you to obey."Catherine took a deep breath as she heard that, she had already started being afraid for her life partially. It would be a win win if she gets in her safe arms."hmm" She didn't know what to say so she lay down on the bed. Travis spoke up immediately, "Don't worry about your sister, I can book the flight for her to come over. We won't stay here for long""That would be really much appreciated but she is currently schooling, so I'll call her to know if she's busy!" Catherine innocently spoke. "There's no problem, I'll be going outside now even though I don't want to see those faces that are out there." He said and walked aimlessly around the room until his phone rang." Hello, mum!" He responded with a look of frustration on his face. "I
