She was setting the dishes on the table. The last few months had been hectic but still, she managed to smile and look after her family.Her son was sleeping in the room and now her time was solely dedicated to her husband.“Dinner ready?” Her husband entered the lounge and gave her a quick kiss.“Yeah. Just need to reheat this pasta.” She placed the dish in the oven, “Just one more minute, honey.”“Then I guess I will take a look at our son.”She nodded and got busy again. She knew, her husband had this habit of looking at their son after every other minute. He was crazy about the child.She never shared a good understanding or a typical spouse bonding with him. But after the birth of her son, she found him a completely changed man.He used to bathe him, change him, stayed awake with him. He never got serious about life. But their son had changed him from head to toe.He had becom

Flashback (Hunter) Throughout his flight to St. Lucia, he had been in contact with Abigail. It had been two hours of the flight when he heard the news of her arrest. “Turn the plane immediately.” He barked the orders. The pilots blinked their eyes at such an outrageous request. This was not a damn car! The CEO was asking them to turn the plane as if there was a fuc*kin U-turn ahead. “Sir. We are sorry. We will be needing permission from…” “Do whatever fuc*kin action is necessary.” He shouted and came back to his seat. But now it was getting harder with each passing minute. He had got the best pilots but he could not expect them to transport the plane to San Francisco in the blink of an eye. The moment the plane landed he wanted to break into a run. Costner Alan must have known about it. He was there along with the Chief of Police. “What is going on, Alan?” It was not a question. He was shooting daggers while taking long strides

She did not know when her eyes became heavier and when she slipped into a deep sleep. But when she woke up the room’s night bulb was on.Her body and mind both felt relaxed after taking that much needed sleep. She did not know how long she slept. Stretching her arms, she started fishing for her phone with her hand around her when her hand touched something beside her.Frowning to herself, she turned towards her left and found herself face to face with…Hunter Levisay!She kept looking at his face trying to decide if it was really him or she was hallucinating.Lifting her hand she placed it on his nose bridge making him squint his eyes.His face looked so funny that she started laughing. Hunter who was thinking that once she would meet him, she would start crying was shocked.Holding her hand, he kissed it, “Hey.”“Hey.” She shifted closer to him and kissed his nose tip.“I am so s

(3 months later)Abigail had just reached the office from her showroom. Its inauguration was due after fifteen days. The place had started getting popular even before its grand opening.Hunter was not in the office. She headed towards the seat which was used by Hunter and her both. The other table which was placed for her was moved away. Because Hunter wanted to share the same desk with her.Humming to herself she opened her laptop and started going through the dealer’s list when the door opened with a bang.“Sugar. Where were you?”She was surprised to find her husband there because he was supposed to be there at the meeting.“Why are you exactly here?” she closed her laptop and stood up.“I think I spilled tea on my jacket.” He took off the jacket and handed it over to her.Abigail started inspecting it but could not find even a tiny stain there.“Hunter!” she was t

“Did Celine come to meet you?” though he asked it casually but her heart missed a beat at that. Shrugging her shoulders carelessly she tried to sound indifferent. “Yes, she was there. Was asking about you as usual. I think she doesn’t like my company much, so just left early.” She was trying to observe the expression on his face. Just to find something special or different at the mention of Celine’s name. But his indifference showed that he could be such a good actor. “Abigail!” “hmm?” She seemed lost. “Are you sure you are just tired? Or is it something else?” she felt a little alarmed but masked it immediately. He was Hunter Levisay and he would not buy any story just like that. “Yes, something is bothering me. But I would tell you after the drinks.” He nodded his head occupied in his thoughts. He was too sharp and intelligent, she did not want to give him any clue. So she said whatever came to her mind, “After dinner, we wou
