Samantha Pov“ Who could be at the door? Should I open it or not? No one is at home, it could be dangerous. " Before I could decide would to do the knock came again. This time a little sharper. I picked my phone and open the door camera. The camera flickered with the image and I was surprise to see the face that appeared on the phone. Kabir , he stood outside with one hand in his pocket and other resting casually on his side. His posture was relaxed but his gaze sharp and observant as if he knew I was watching. I lowered the phone.The question here is what is he doing here.? Did Liam send him here or did he come on his own? My grip tightened around the phone. Control, Samantha control yourself. I took a deep breathe to calm myself, wiped my tears.This time instead of a knock, the doorbell buzzed. I took hold of myself and with calculated steps I walked towards the door and opened it with slow movements. I froze. Kabir stood there exactly in the same way as I saw on the sc

Liam PovThe look she gave me when I asked her to be friends. It wasn’t anger. It wasn’t even discomfort.It was something else. It felt as if I had asked for something she couldn’t afford to give.For a moment, she froze. Then slowly, she turned her head toward me.“Mr Turner… friends?” Her gaze stilled on me in a questioning manner.A second later, she shook her head slightly.“Sorry, I don’t mix work with my personal life, Mr Turner.” Once again her tone was controlled, distant and professional. She stepped out of the car, but then paused and turned back.“But… if you’re comfortable with me being friends and continuing the interview series, then that’s fine.” After a brief pause, she spoke.“But it has to be strictly professional.” Her tone was calm and polite. As if she was untouchable.I watched her for a second, then nodded slightly.“I agree.” I said it, my tone calm and composed. After a few seconds, I continued.“But on one condition.” She waited for me to co

Samantha Pov Liam lied to Rose… but why? Did he recognise me? Why did he say he wanted to stay? It felt like I was caught in a web, the more I struggled to break free, the tighter it pulled around me.And that sharp, unsettling feeling hit me hard. I quickly gulped down the last of my coffee, the bitterness lingering on my tongue as I pushed my chair back and stood up. I grabbed my bag and headed straight for the exit.I wasn’t going to repeat my mistake. Not again.I could feel his presence behind me. Liam followed me with same pace. Like he wasn’t going to let me walk away that easily.The moment we stepped outside, his car was already waiting. He walked ahead and opened the door for me, as if it was the most natural thing in the world. “Thanks, but no thanks, Mr Turner. I can go on my own.” With that I turned to leave, but a firm grip wrapped around my wrist. The sudden force threw me off balance. My breath caught as my body tilted. Before I could hit the ground, a strong arm sli
- Familiar Stranger Chapter 46 The lie I saw
Rose Pov Liam’s interview would be aired in a few seconds. I switched on the television, settling into the couch with a cup of my favourite chamomile tea.And then , Miss Blake’s face appeared on the screen. Not again. I stilled. This can't be happening. Liam’s voice broke the chain of my thoughts. The interview began with the usual questions, polished and predictable but he wasn’t looking like himself. My grip tightened around the cup. The way he looked at her wasn’t normal, wasn’t professional. That wasn’t Liam. His gaze never left her .I leaned forward slightly, my eyes narrowing. He wasn’t just listening to her. He was watching her carefully and intently. As if he was trying to understand something beyond her words.I tried to focus on the questions. But it became impossible for me to watch the interview. Because this was no longer an interview. It felt personal.His gaze didn’t neither move nor did it waiver .And the way he looked at her. He has never looked at me like th
- Familiar Stranger Chapter 45 A cup of trouble
Samantha Pov The room suddenly felt too small as if the walls were closing in. My breath turned shallow. I felt suffocated.“I… excuse me.” I muttered, already rising before the director could respond. I needed air.I pushed the door open and crashed into someone. A familiar intoxicating smell hit my nostrils.My breath stilled. Slowly, I lifted my head. And met those deep and sharp eyes that were unmistakably familiar. Liam.“Miss Blake.” He said, his brows drawing together slightly. “What happened? Did your director misbehave with you?” Before I could react, his hand closed around my wrist in a firm and protective grip “I can deal with him.”“No—” I pulled my hand back quickly. Mr Turner, you’ve misunderstood. Nothing like that happened. I was in a hurry.” I avoided his gaze and tried to move past him.But his voice stopped me.“Miss Blake.” I turned.He was watching me again. That same searching look.“Will you join me for a cup of coffee?” He asked, his tone calme
- Familiar Stranger Chapter 44 Under his gaze
Samantha PovToday, I am supposed to conduct Liam’s interview, and I must admit that this is one of the most challenging interviews I have conducted to date.Liam is observing my every move very closely. Like he’s trying to arrange the pieces of a puzzle together, and that thought alone sends a flicker of unease through me. What if he recognizes me? No . This can’t happen. Not now. I tighten my grip on the steering wheel, forcing myself to breathe evenly.You can do it. You have handled countless interviews before. This is just another one. Just another name. Just another face. Nothing more.Reminding myself that I am no longer Sanjana, I take a deep breath, straighten slightly, and focus on the road ahead.But my mind drifts back to that charity night.For a moment, it had felt like he could see right through me. His questions weren’t casual, they were searching. Digging. As if he was trying to dig something that is buried deep within me.If Uncle Henry hadn’t arrived in tim
