Hello readers. Askim and Canim are Turkish endearments. All those who are confused about Robert Parker and Julia Aaron. Robert was Rafael's buddy who was painfully ditched by Julia. That was the reason Raf wanted a revenge. Julia Aaron was Emerald's best friend who called her to Turkey. Thank you Amethyst for remembering them and for reminding readers. Please stay tuned. xoxo.

My darling. My Guzel. When you will get this letter, I will be behind the bars by then. I am writing it because today I found the file when you went to drop Sophie off to school and did not allow me to leave the car because you did not want Sophie to become the center of attention.The file was about my transactions with other companies. And then something dawned on me. All along you were planning to take revenge.I know, sweetheart that I deserved it. So today I am writing this letter to you with a promise. That I will give you so much love so much care that you will forget about this revenge.No. I will not express my love through my words. I will express it through my actions.Today after writing this letter I will hand it over to Mr. Mathew and tell him that IF in future I will go to jail then he is supposed to deliver it to you. And if I don’t go to jail then he can keep the letter with him forever.My best bet is you will fall for me and Mr. Mathew won’t be needing to deliver it
“I know, I can’t justify myself or my actions, Hunter. For fifteen days he made me believe that he loved me.” Emerald did not know what else to tell him. All this time he was there for her when her own parents left her alone dying on the streets.Rafael was his younger brother.“This is not how I must pay you and Abigail back what you people did for me. Please let me help him. Later if you want you can kick me out. Please let me try.” She was pleading him sitting there. Hunter did not know how to react.He still remembered that girl who came to his house with a newborn. All scared and clutching the baby a little forcefully to her chest.Hunter had come up to her and took the baby gently from her grip, “This is not how you should hold the baby.” He had looked at Sophia fondly. Since that day he had taken her under his wing and treated her as his sister.When Emerald left the study, he was still kneeling on the floor, “Honey!” Abigail closed the gap between them and sat beside him kneel
Today was the best day of her life and the moment when she got the message from Hunter that Rafael was at last out, was the best moment of her life.That night he could not see her in that dress so this evening she decided to wear it. She got ready and sprayed Plum Bodylovin on her.Though she was scared that he might reject her once he would know about her insecurities. However, she needed to stay positive. This evening she kept herself busy preparing his favorite dinner.“Mommy. When would daddy come tonight?” She heard her daughter’s innocent voice and turned with a smile.“Soon, sweetie.” She lifted her up and kissed her cheek, “He will be back in no time.” She knew her daughter was missing Rafael. So did Sophie’s mamma.When she last talked to Hunter around noon for the details, he told her that the court had agreed to bail him out right after their lawyer submitted the file. Abigail messaged her when Rafael headed to their residence instead of going to the Sapphire Galaxy hotel
“You can’t go inside, miss. No pass, no entry.” The guard told her in a clipped voice though he knew who he was talking to. “You can’t talk to my wife like that! She is the owner of this hotel!” Hunter practically growled at the guard and turned to his wife, “Honey. Where is your invitation card?” He was holding his in his hand. Though he always kept their passes or theatre tickets together but tonight Abigail’s insisted that she wanted to carry hers in her clutch. She was looking stunning in her champagne pink gown. Hunter was wearing an indigo suit and was looking strikingly handsome. They were known as one of the most powerful couples in their circles. “I am sorry, sir. We have been instructed not to let anyone enter without a pass.” The security for Rafael’s official party was hired from outside according to the protocol otherwise Sapphire Galaxy staff knew their owners. Hunter still wanted to kill the guard when Abi placed her hand on his chest, “Honey. Leave it. We can call s
Thank God that he held her hand otherwise she might have tripped on those stairs. She was now getting more conscious due to the quietness around them, the eyes that were looking at her, and the cameramen setting their lenses on them.“So you are here just to tell me that I am a jerk?” His lips seemed desperate to smile but he was holding back using all his might.“No. I am here to tell you that like you, I am also a jerk and …”“And?” He cocked up his brow.“And I … I was not involved in sending you… there.” She shrugged awkwardly trying to avoid the word ‘jail’, “I was maintaining the file but I dropped the idea of … and I was waiting for you to arrive home on screening night wearing this dress.” Pulling back a little he ran his gaze from head to toe.His face was telling him that he liked what he saw.“You waited for me that night wearing this?” He mumbled while his knuckles brushed her cheek.“And the night you were released. I waited for you wearing this dress.” This time she narr
Emerald had gone dumb after hearing that.“I don’t believe you, Rafael Wyatt!” She frowned shaking her head. How was that possible? He never got laid?“How could I when the woman I love was not there? How could I touch any other woman?” He smiled gently, “Listen to me, love. Look up!”He commanded her and cupped her cheeks, “Do you trust me?” Emerald at once nodded at him. There was no question that she should not trust this man.That was the very reason she was standing there. That was the sole reason she came after him.“If you trust me, sweetheart. Then let go of this fear. I am sure you will be great in bed.” He said so casually that Emerald thought he was talking about the economic crisis around the world. She blinked a little and closed her eyes.“Are you sure about this?”“Hundred percent, sweetheart.” He ran his hand through her black mane, “If nothing would happen then we will simply cuddle in that bed. But I can’t say anything before we don’t try to test it.”He could feel h
Emerald's morning started with the sweetest kisses he was showering on her neck. Her lips spread in a smile when his hands started roaming around on her nak*ed body, deliciously. “Let me get some more sleep.” She complained without opening her eyes but happiness could be detected in her voice. These were the mornings she always dreamed of. To wake up beside him. To look at his face first thing in the morning. To hear his voice. She still felt it was not real. She was afraid that someone could still come and shatter her little world she just started building up. With him. With Sophie. “I love you, Guzel.” She felt him shifting on her body and could not stop the moan from escaping her lips. The proof of his desire was touching her intimately. “I love you too, Askim.” She not only surprised him with a Turkish endearment yet she also pulled him down and started kissing him hungrily, “I can’t believe I am doing it first thing in the morning.” He murmured against his mouth. This was i
Emerald Aaron pov: (4 years back in Turkey)When I left Istanbul, I was already heartbroken due to Rafael’s betrayal. After an emotionally difficult flight when I reached back to my friend's door her mom opened it.“I thought you have already left but you are back.” She tried to intimidate me, “For how long do we have to put up with a freeloader like you?”“Emerald. Come inside.” Before I could say anything Julia arrived and took me inside without explaining anything to her mom. I was hurt because I was not a freeloader. Her daughter called me there because she needed me.Her boyfriend ditched her because of some other dame and my friend was shattered emotionally. She was not getting over the heartbreak.She just paid for my flight otherwise I was doing a waitress job in Antalya. The reason I went to Istanbul was she had a reservation for two weeks there.During those days she was trying to hide from her boyfriend. She was pregnant and she did not want her boyfriend to know about the
