Eva Stewart's POV"If you think I won't notice Cassandra and Grandma's behavior then you are wrong." I waited for his reply."What do you mean?" His eyes were confused. "You think grandma is fine with our relationship?" I asked him. He didn't take a moment to reply, "Yes! Haven't you seen how she blessed you?" He paused, "How she had given her ring to you?"I was irked by his one-sided observations, "What did Cassandra ask grandma when she entered?"I saw him thinking about that. "Nothing particular I remember." He paused, "But she was constantly saying that grandma did something to her."I smiled at him. "If after seeing her hatred towards me you didn't understand anything then I don't know what will make you understand." I shrugged."You are misinterpreting." He kept his hand on my shoulder. "You are naive or trying to make me a fool?" Those words made him laugh.I kept staring at the blackness of the sky. The jagged masses of h

Scarlett Miller's POV"I can't lose you." I sobbed loudly. "Nothing will happen. Trust me." With that, he stood up. He was looking at me. But just then I looked at something behind him and shouted Eric.He kept a hand tightly on my mouth. "Sh!!!" There was darkness all over. I hugged him tightly.He was about to stand up but I stopped him. I moved my head violently. "Don't go." I kept chanting those words.Just then he kept his hand on my chin, "Nothing is going to happen."In a few minutes, the security all over gathered. "Sir." I heard Lucas coming in that direction. "Calm down! It's Lucas." He said.He held my arms, supporting me while I stood up sideways. "Its Xavier's men." I heard him saying that."Where the hell was the whole security?" He ran his hands in his hair. "Everything was checked. But a insider helped them to come inside. Otherwise there wasn't a way to enter this space. ""Tomorrow's morning I want the complet

"Aaahh!!" I could not help but exclaim softly. I was in so much pain that tears rolled down my face and I almost swore out loud."Scarlett, This is Eric. I am not afraid of anyone. " He bent down near my ear."Of course, you aren't afraid," I paused. "Why would you?" Like all the other times his proximity wasn't terrifying me.But something was there at that moment. That told me this wasn't the same Eric that I know all these times. Although this thing knocked my head many times.Everything that happened is for good. I was running away from my own family. I was trying to find love, care, trust, and protection where it's not even possible.When I saw he wasn't leaving me, I wiggled in his hold. I tried to free myself from him. "You know we aren't right for each other," I said something that if someone would have said I will say any such thing. I would have laughed at them."We always knew that." He said and loosen his hold on me.

Scarlett Miller's POVWhen she didn't reply, I gestured to her that I will still speak. "But this man, your grandson wanted me. Let me correct myself wanted to get the shares of my dad's company. Contract marriage, you know?""Contract marriage?" She prompted.Steady and loud footsteps came in my direction. I knew who the person can be. But trust me, I bother less."Scarlett, What are you saying?" Grandpa was the first one to come out of this shock."Grandpa let me...," Eric tried to intervene but he cut him off in between. "No! Let me talk to her." He didn't look in his direction but moved towards me.Apparently, I didn't want him to know about everything like this. But they didn't have left any choice for me."Is it true?" He waited for me to speak. I looked at Eric who was throwing daggers and his eyes were warning me about all the consequences."What?" I tried to act innocent. Although, I was well aware that it isn't possible

Scarlett Miller's POVThe sound of water pouring on the roof woke me up. It was raining again, a slanting gray sky was visible. I very carefully levered up an eyelid and shut it again fast.I buried my head under the darkness of the pillow and pretended it was night. Although it was not. I couldn't see the point of getting up. I truly had nothing to look forward to.After few minutes I got up feeling sluggish and tired. I tried to stand up from the bed, that's when I felt a sharp shooting pain. My head was throbbing.I stood up looking out of the window with a dark and harsh taste of wine still in my mouth. I was feeling dizzy and drowsy.When I saw out of the window, memories of last night manifested slowly from the back of my mind."For now I don't want anything. The only thing I want is 'you'. Then be it for a night "I remembered those words. Oh no! What the hell I have done more? I covered my face with my palms.Every new de
