(Vaz Steven Kaur POV)
"Vaz, can we talk?" I read the text message from my ex Chloe. I shake my head.
Likewise, I felt cold and disgusted at the message from Chloe, my ex-girlfriend who allowed me to be fooled and seduced by my older brother.I have only gone for a moment because I went on a school field trip. And as I came home I caught my brother and girlfriend doing something lewd!
I trusted Chloe but I can't trust Harrison. I know he seduced my girlfriend. That's not surprised me though. Then now Chloe is forcing me to talk to her! After she destroyed my trust, she would still have the guts to face me, so she could talk. What does she think she should explain?TSK, they're both disgusting!
I have already focused my attention on driving.
I was about to put down my cellphone when it vibrated. The name of my stepsister Amber pops up on my phone.Why was shebeen calling? It's surprising.
I immediately swipe the screen to answer her call."Vaz, help us! Your Dad and Mom are being beaten by Harrison. Please help us." Amber said crying.
"What? What is happening there?"
I heard a loud thud and Amber's voice diminished. Her phone seemed to pop out, fortunately, the call was not interrupted.I heard Harrison laugh on the line.
"You're just here. You're still hiding. I know every corner of the house! Do you think you can escape me, my dear stepsister? Come here!" I heard Harrison said.Damn!
I immediately accelerated my car to reach the mansion!Amber, I'll be home soon, hold on!
Harrison you evil! What are you doing?!I could even hear Amber's constant coughing on the line as if she's choking.Shit!
***
I quickly reached the mansion, entered my car through the big gate. When I got out of my car, I ran and hurried through the big door of the house. The strength of my chest pounding makes me hard to breathe.
There were no helpers because all I knew was they were sent home for Christmas and new year. It is our custom to send the workers of the mansion home every Christmas and New Year so that they can be with their families on holidays.I immediately went to another living room when I noticed that no one was at the entrance.
I heard every step and my heartbeat. Not only that, but I feel so nervous.As I entered the large door of another living room, I was surprised to find that Amber and Aunt, tied to the chair, both with their mouths covered, opened up to me. In the other corner is Harrison forcing Dad to sign a paper."What the hell are you doing Harrison!" I shouted at my brother, so his attention was turned to me.Harry pointed his gun straight at me. "The favorite son is here." He said furrowed his forehead.
"For Pete's sake, Harry. That's our father. We're family, why are you treating them like that ?!" I shouted at him as I step closer. I had to release Amber and Aunt, especially Dad.
"Stop right there Vaz. Aren't you still getting it? I want to have the rightful wealth I've worked so hard for!" Harry smirked.
"Just because of wealth and heritage makes you like that Harry?" I said in despair and disappointment.
"Haha, since you're a favorite that's why you don't understand. Don't you know that almost everything, written in Dad's will, it's all in your name! I worked hard on our business and company to rise and profit big. But hurts me knowing that Dad will almost leave the wealth all for you, I worked for our businesses and all you did was seeking pleasure, playing with girls, and spending money on nonsense things! I already killed Mom to lessen the burden. Then now someone else will share with me the wealth I'm working hard to get! " Harry shouted pointing the gun at Amber.
Was he involved in Mom’s death? What the hell !?
"Son, Harry, let me speak. Son, so I left the bigger amount and part to Vaz because I know he won't leave and take good care of your Aunt and Amber. I know you can grow what I left you, son. You know to take risks and keep up with the big businessmen and your brother is still young and has no experience in adventure in business. Son, I'm proud of you and I believe you will grow even more soon that's why I left Vaz a bigger part than you. I hope you understand. " Dad's long explanation.
Harry just shook his head and didn't want to listen.
"No, I want to have what is rightfully mine. Now, keep it up, or I'll kill this mother, daughter, and your favorite son! I'll take what is rightfully mine, and I'll take everything from your favorite son!" Harry said full of hatred.
I ran over to Amber and Aunt.
"Stop this Harry! Please, he is our dad. We are Family." I feel sorry for him, but he is getting further for the wealth he wanted!Dad didn't want to sign Harry's documents. So my brother got even angrier."It's just like this. Maybe I'll just kill you all so that all the wealth of this family will be transferred to me! Haha." Harrison laughed and pointed to the gun he was holding pulling the trigger.
I hug Amber when a loud gunshot rang inside the mansion!I closed my eyes.Why Harrison .....?
Meet My Family (Amber POV) If I had to listen to my mother narrating about my father's carelessness about us, I was going to hate my father. My mother was in her four ties whereas my father was thirty years old. So maybe my father lost his excitement for my mother. Does age matter when it comes to love? So when I found out that my parents had separated and suddenly heard that my Mother was going to remarry. I was no longer surprised. Not that it was a problem with my mother going after someone with her age, because my father was younger, so It wasn't like my father cared about mom having a boyfriend or getting married as he'd spent almost his time chasing younger girls, so I can't blame my mother if she finds a man to appreciate and love her. "Aren't you still done?" My best friend Paige Reign complained while waiting for me to finish packing my school supplies. "It'
Reminder (Amber POV) "Amber, how's your Uncle's cooking? He prepared that for you." Mom asked smiling. We were at the dining table with Uncle Van, Harry, and Mom. Only Vaz is not here.Vaz doesn't want us to be here. It's obvious. I swallowed what I was chewing before answering mom."It's super delicious mom. Thank you so much for the food Uncle." I smiled.The food is good. The taste of a father's cooking is good. "How about this place Amber, your room? How's your sleep? Maybe you want to add or remove something." Harry asked with a smile. "This place is lovely. My room is super comfortable. So I had a good night's sleep." I answered staring at the wall clock.7 am. Class at 8:30, so I still have time. "That's good. It would have been okay if Vaz and I had eaten together." Harry said. Yeah, but he seems that he doesn't like our
Perfect Evil Brother (Vaz POV) "Vaz, after this we will go to karaoke with some girls, okay?" Tobby said while arranging the C.U. student papers, we are part of the student council, so we are here now in the file room. "I'll go if there will be some beauties!" I replied sitting properly on the bench there. "Lots of beautiful and cool women out there trust me! So, are you coming?" Tobby sat down next to me. I sighed. "I'll go." "Good then! Let's finish this soon, so we can leave right away!" I hate home, that is why I spend almost my whole day and night outside. I don’t like the atmosphere in the house, I just remember my mom and I always see my perfect older brother! 5 years ago, I was the perfect child, student, and cute youngest sibling. Always on top, high grades, studying well, praised, and proud. I was raised the way they wanted, and I walked it well. Until I w
DOUBTS (Vas POV)I wrapped my coat around Amber and propped her up on the side of the road. The strength of my chest pounding due to nervousness makes my flesh shaking, but I didn't want her to notice it. I forced myself to breathe properly and avoid the painful wounds on my elbow and hand.Amber is gone mute and doesn't move, her knees and trembling fingers.I take her to the side of the road.I leaned my head on my chest.It's fine. You're safe right now." I whispered to her as I stroked her hair. I could feel her trembling.She suddenly startled me and pushed me. I was just shaking my head. Maybe she was afraid or shy with me.I just want her to be safe. I'm here, ready to protect her.I shoved my phone in my pocket, and it was good because it was still in contact. It didn't break because of jumping and rolling earlier.I immediately dialed Toby's number.Damn, we almost died!Three rings before you answer. I understand because for s
BETRAYAL (Amber POV) I felt sorry for Vaz because I knew his left shoulder was bruised. After all, it was the first to fall and hit the ground when we jumped out of his car, he didn't even show that he is in pain, or maybe he just endured the pain. He looks like a brave man. I could not see any fear or hurt on his face. I was even more captivated by the strength of his charisma as a man. *** I was surprised when we arrived at the house, Vaz suddenly rushed and punched Harry. I forced myself to walk properly even though the wound in my knee hurt, because I didn’t want Mom to know, and she would have to worry more. Furthermore, I also don't know anything about their quarrel, maybe Vaz was angry because he was the one Harry ordered to fetch me after school. So his car broke down. Till this time my flesh is still trembling. What happened to Vaz's car? His car was too new to break down.
(Amber POV) I woke up from the cold I felt. I noticed I was lying down on something soft. The cold makes me feel numb. I opened my eyes properly. It was dazzled by the brightness of the light. My eyelids are heavy and seemed swollen. I noticed I was in an unfamiliar room."Vaz," I called to know that it is not Vaz. That voice is familiar to me when my name was called.My eyesight is blurry.I noticed Vaz in a corner.He sat facing the glass wall looking down on it. What time is it there? Where is this place located?Are you okay?" He asked to turn his back facing me.I slowly got up and wrapped myself in a blanket."Thank you!" I murmured. I don't know what would have happened to be there when I fainted in the middle of the road with the pouring heavy rain if Vaz hadn't come.DamnThe infidelity of Rhyz and Holly came back to my mind. I close my eyes to calm the throbbing of my chest and ease my difficulty breathing.Shall I tell Vaz about Harry
ALWAYS A HERO (Amber POV) (Event Area) I stopped right beside Vaz.He put his hands in his pocket and looked around as if looking for someone. I adjusted my gown and bent down to adjust my heels as well. "You need help?" Vaz turned to me. "No need. I'm okay." I answer embarrassed. I think he was too upset and bothered by me. From picking me up from Rhyz and taking care of me at the hotel. I finally stood straight in the vertically and challenging high heels. I stepped to look for Mom when my left foot suddenly sprained due to high heels. Damn!It's good that I'm not out of balance because I'm ready and I know I'm going to stumble. Sometimes I feel that I know what will happen ahead. Kidding. Vaz caught up with me immediately. While a soft song was playing, I caught a glimpse of his face. It was as if everything had stopped, I felt like we were just the two of us in the middle of the glowing lights and melodious mu
HELP! (Amber POV) Vaz and I just went to a mall to buy me comfortable heels and I wouldn't have trouble walking anymore. After buying more comfortable and low heels, Vaz and I returned to RH to participate in the family's event. I'm just hiding behind Vaz because I can't enjoy this event while knowing the bitch Holly is here. Uncle Van happily introduced us to everyone. On the big screens, you can see Mom and I’s faces. As embarrassing as it was, I went up on stage to join Mom, Uncle Van, Vaz, and Harry. Unfortunately, Holly was also included on the stage. How can she be so thick face? The thickness of the face amazes me. I just took a deep breath and waited for when I could leave and go out. I was weak, sad, and seemed to get sick. I'm sad and broken. (8 pm) After being introduced, I left the hotel to breathe.Vaz followed me. He also doesn't want to be inside and I can see he doesn't want to overwhelm his older brother so
