Irene nestles on the black velvet armchair in her living room. Her legs are tucked underneath her, her hands hug her knees close to her chest, her chin rests on top of her knees and her eyes are distant, staring straight at nothing in the space in front of her.

A rattle echoes far away. It seems to grow closer. It takes Irene a while to realize that the noise is coming from her door. Someone is frantically knocking outside her door.

She jumps down from the chair and stares at the door like it's the only thing saving her from doom.

Fear crawls on her skin like fingers. Her breath hitches and her mouth goes dry. Are they coming for her?

She has tried to stay away. Hidden herself from all of it, but no matter how far she runs, she can't run away from her family. Her brother and what he is.

The knock intensifies. It seems like the person outside is running away like her.

Slowly and reluctantly, She goes to open the door knowing there's no escaping. Even if she refuses to get the doo

  • Fake Dating The Tycoon Lawyer    Chapter 75

    Anders stays back long enough to gather the details he needs, before he prepares to go to Nikas.He's not surprised to find Melaina gone. However, Irene's sudden disappearance leaves him somewhat surprised. But he doesn't dwell on it.The whole situation is making his head spin. The case had started with the search for Electra, but now Nikas is being accused of murder and Electra is still nowhere to be found.As much as Anders denies it, Nikas and Electra have come to be very important people to him. Nikas has grown to be his good friend and Electra… he still can't name it, but she means something to him.He heads to the police station. Unfortunately, he's unable to get Nikas bail. But as Nikas' legal representative, Anders is granted access to see him.He's sitting in the small grim room waiting for Nikas. It takes a moment before Nikas is ushered in. Stopping by the door, Nikas waits for his cuffs to be removed before he walks in and takes the lone chair opposite Anders.“How are yo

    Anders freezes. He exchanges looks with Nikas.His head spins. The words of the officer paralyses him. His mouth dries. Body.The word repeats in his mind like a mantra. Again, the image of Electra's being unconscious materials in his mind. Instant fear fills him, causing the hairs on his skin to rise.Like Anders, Nikas can't process anything. A body? Where? Whose?Not Electra. He prays. Not his sister. The wait is killing him. He licks his lips, trying to find the right words.“Officer.” Nikas calls.The officer holds a finger silencing Nikas. “Step outside. All of you.”His colleague, the younger stern man appears from behind, his hand is converted in white gloves.“I've requested back up. We'll take them in for questioning.” Officer Silas tells his colleague who passes them a suspicious look.The extra team of police officers arrive. Before minutes, the auto-shop is flooding with men in uniforms. Anders, Nikas, Melaina and Irene are huddled in a corner, observing the whole ep

    Anders barely sleeps that night. Worry keeps him company the whole night. He tries to erase the image of Electra sprawled unconscious on the cold hard floor of the pavement. He stays awake praying this isn't like last time. As early as the first light of dawn, Anders gets himself ready to head to the auto-shop. Thankfully, his other car is in good driving condition. He reaches the auto-shop and just as he climbs out of his car, Melaina parks her car in front of Anders’ car. His forehead furrows, wondering why she's here this early. Melaina steps out of her car and walks up to Anders who stands watching her curiously. “I'm worried for Electra too.” She answers the question she sees in his eyes before he can ask. Anders looks behind her towards the car. It doesn't seem anyone else is with her. He eyes the length of Melaina, not with interest but suspicion. “Where's the boy?” Melaina is taken aback with the question. She clears her throat before responding. “I got him a nanny. Sh

    “Anders, you need to calm down.” Nikas urges as he can no longer ignore Anders' restless jerking and shifting in the truck.Anders glances his way. Astonishment adorns his face. He can't believe Nikas is telling him to calm down at a time like this. Nikas has first hand experience with Hector, and Anders expects him to know better.But Nikas doesn't seem to.“It may not be as bad as you're thinking.”Anders scoffs. “Are you listening to yourself? Don't you know Hector? Or have you forgotten everything just because you are roaming around freely?”“Hey!” Nikas’ irritation is potent in the single word. He bites down on his molars to suppress his anger. “Don't assume I'm not worried about my sister because I'm not showing my angst. I'm only trying to be optimistic. I don't want to think of Electra in the way I've seen Hector handle women. Trust me, you don't either.” Nikas clenches his jaw as he finishes. His palms hold the steering wheel tightly, causing the veins on his arms to pop.

    Melaina's worried gaze keeps flitting towards the back door as she follows behind Anders. Anders is too disturbed to notice her jittery. “Nikas.” He calls, joining Nikas and Irene. “We'll need to go to the station.” Nikas frowns. “Why aren't they coming here? Don't they need to look around, see what they can find for themselves?” Nikas asks, looking to Irene to support his argument. “They have an emergency requiring the dispatch units in this area. The next unit will take about two hours to reach here. We can report the case ourselves within that time.” Anders explains. “It’s best to go there in person than to wait.” Melaina supports. As Melaina speaks, Irene notices her for the first time. She squints. Her mind clouded with a distant memory. Anders turns to both women. His question pushes Irene's resurfacing memory to the back of her mind. “Will you wait here until we return?” “I don't think that's a good idea. Given the situation at hand, it's not safe.” Nikas interjec
