Business dinner
Kiara’s POV:-“H-how did this happen?” I heard Tyler asking next when he was a bit sobered up. “How did they die, Kia?” His breaths shaking just like his voice. “Tell me everything.” Those sad, teary eyes requested me.Begged me to tell them how come his last memories were of a happy family, and then one day this man woke up being an orphan in this world.I can’t even fathom what Tyler must be suffering right at this very moment. Even though I myself a sufferer, I just can’t bring myself to understand his mental state right now.Oh, God, why us? Why us?I sucked in a sharp breath, but the heavy weight on my chest didn’t budge. A bitter taste gripped my taste buds. My throat bobbed up and down. I gulped the painful lump bitterly, pushing the nauseous feeling down somewhere.The cause of their death. The cruel scene of their last moment with us flashed before my eyes. Papa’s painful face and Mamma’s loud cries filled my senses one more time.A strong shiver ran down my spine. I felt Tyl

Underlying rage
Writer’s POV:-Mr. Moore, the man of few words and an ego as high as Mount Everest, was sitting with a stoic firmness etched deeply on his wrinkled countenance. Although he was nodding at something his assistant was saying, his mind was lost somewhere else. His attention was diverted only when the door of the cabin opened with a whooshing sound of wind and two manly figures entered the suite.Viaan and Neil entered Mr. Moore’s personal VIP cabin suite, finding him seated on one of the vast couches. The air in the room felt charged with the cryptic vibes that both Viaan and Neil could feel at their first step.However, ignoring the obvious, Viaan approached the elderly man, who stood up from his seat to welcome his guests. “Welcome, Mr. Adams. I hope you didn’t have any difficulties coming over here!” He extended a formal hand to Viaan. His formal tone was laced with firmness.Taking it in a greeting gesture, Viaan nodded while giving a subtle shake to their joined palms. “Not at all,

Humiliated?
Viaan’s POV:-“I understand your concerns, Mr. Adams,” Mr. Moore interrupted before I could even complete my sentence. “Certainly, I had announced no business with you. However, I felt it was necessary for us to have a conversation, considering recent developments.” He addressed my curiosity, making me furrow my brows.I sat wordlessly for a couple of seconds, trying hard to decipher the strained look on his face. Although, the blank expression that had put on was making it impossible for me to deduce something. However, if not his face, then his words made some sense to me. As soon as his words sank in, I felt a sudden fear of humiliation being rubbed in my face.“So you mean, because the collaboration news and the sudden growth that Adams Corps showed in the market following the conference had caused you to rethink your decision?” My tone was formal as I asked Mr. Moore. I clenched my jaws, feeling a strange rush of anger. “That means, hadn’t we made it in time, you would never have

You knew about it?
Kiara’s POV:-“What’s happening here?” A sudden, loud voice interrupted us, making me aware of the person who had stepped in. My breath hitched when I recognized the voice.“Dr. Ryan,” Sophie acknowledged the person; her voice was low as well. “We were waiting for you!”It was Ryan. Of course.Footsteps echoed in the sudden silent ward. Ryan stepped in before I heard the door closing. His presence immediately shifted the atmosphere.I suppressed an inaudible sniffle, determined to hold back the flood of emotions threatening to overwhelm me.He, perhaps, sensed the tension in the room as he entered. “Is everything alright, Sister Sophie?” His voice was calm but carried an underlying concern that was hard to miss.“Yes, doctor.”“The air here suggests otherwise!”Soph knew her words failed to provide confidence and hence when Ryan asked she shut her mouth.I can feel him staring at us with curious eyes. Thankfully, he had come alone and not brought anyone with him.I wiped off my cheeks

The time has come, Kiara
Writer’s POV:-“Not only this but also the fact that Aaron is Tyler and Sophie’s son!” Ryan’s voice was steady, but there was a hint of solemnity in his tone.As Ryan dropped the bombshell, Kiara and Sophie froze, their eyes widening in shock. The words hung in the air, heavy with the weight of the revelation.A revelation that Kiara least expected today.The room fell into a stunned silence. The only thing audible at that moment was the ticking of the clock and the lazy evening wind coming through the open windows of Ryan’s cabin.With a composed face, Ryan watched the two women in front of him, trying hard to digest the truth he just disclosed.He knew this was going to be their reaction once her tells them the truth, but still watching them doing so, made him amused.Did they really think they would keep this massive truth away from him?Did they seriously think he wasn’t going to find it out, ever? He was a doctor, for God’s sake. It was impossible for this truth to be a secret fr

Time
Writer’s POV:-“Kia, calm down. Ryan said that he won’t reveal anything to Viaan.” Sophie tried to calm her down, but the girl was far from calming down.A ready havoc was created in her mind and heart and she had no idea how to deal with it.“But he didn’t even give me any time, Soph. All he allowed me is tonight.” Kiara retorted, holding her breath in apprehension.She can hear her heart pounding in her ears, and sweat beads adorning her temples even after the decreased temperature of AC.Her words followed a silence before Sophie sighed audibly. “You have taken more than you should, Kia. You can’t avoid it any longer. Dr. Ryan was right when he said the more delay you are making the harder it would be to make Viaan understand.” Sophie indirectly quoted Ryan’s words from the last evening.“Out of all people, you should be understanding my dilemma, Soph.” Kiara clicked her tongue, getting annoyed at not finding any solution. “I didn’t wait for Tyler to just wake up, but I needed to k

Influence
Writer’s POV:-“And the man said that Mr. Adams is ready to meet at the earliest possible date,” Daniel revealed, sounding serious and firm.Hunter sat straight with a jerk, his brows dipping in. “How come he agreed this early? Didn’t he and his lawyer want time?” The question triggered his mind, he inquired in a disbelieving tone.The frown went deeper on his face; his eyeballs moving constantly as he tried to figure out Viaan’s step. One thing was crystal clear neither Viaan nor his lawyer saw this proposal as a simple invitation to get rid of legal troubles. Hence it was very much acceptable for his rival to seek time to agree or even deny.That’s why, even when this frustrated Hunter, he was ready for any secret investigation Viaan did on him. But little did he expect, that his acceptance would come this early and fast.He heard Daniel huffing from the other end and came out of his thoughts. “I have no idea, Sir. But if they are ready then why not proceed? This was the plan after

Paradis d'Amour was finally mine!
Writer’s POV:-“Did Viaan tell when will he come?” Leena asked Kiara who was serving her breakfast.Her hands stopped in the air and she raised her head to her mother-in-law. “No, Maa. He had just dropped the text last night that he wouldn’t be coming home tonight as he had an urgent meeting and some important work. So, he is perhaps staying at the penthouse itself.” Kiara sighed, continuing to fill Leena’s plate.Leena nodded recalling the text Kiara showed her last night. Viaan had specifically mentioned to tell Leena about it, he himself didn’t text her thinking she must be asleep by then.It was around eleven in the morning. Both the ladies were having a late breakfast today, as Kiara was nauseous and not feeling good this morning; thus she had delayed her meal.Although Leena had something light earlier as she had to have medicines as well, she still joined Kiara in the late meal.It was Leena’s assistance that she was even eating, lest she was all ready to ditch the breakfast to

Neil spilled the bean already?
Back in the present time, The PenthouseViaan’s POV, :Looking at the keys, I fisted them tightly. I was in my penthouse where I had come just an hour ago to get freshened up. Last night, I had to lie to Kia and Maa as I had spent entire hours in planning for the surprise for Maa. Then this morning the leftover documentation took my time while I also went to check for last-minute preparations. I just happened to come here one hour ago as I can’t go directly to home. And as soon as I came here, the first thing I did was to call Maa. She deserves the surprise the most.All through this while, I also kept myself reassured that this was not a dream anymore but a reality.A beautiful reality.A certain kind of peace filled my heart. I felt the cores of my eyes moistening up. Our dream was finally completed.“Paradis d’Amour is finally ours, Papa. I completed your and Maa’s dreams.” My voice choked with emotions as I looked at the picture frame on my desk while placing the keys reverently b

Dramatic narration
Writer’s POV:-“Thank you so much, Guys.” An emotional Viaan expressed his gratitude to the two of the constant pillars of his life.Receiving brotherly pats on his back as a response, he reluctantly broke the hug. His dull face was uplifted with the pure essence of their support throughout his life.“You —” Ryan started to speak, but then his eyes narrowed as he studied Viaan’s features more closely. “Were you crying, Viaan?” His eyes scanned Viaan’s face with concern.On cue, Leo also took a closer look. “Yeah, you look off!” He exclaimed, pointing out the obvious signs of distress.Viaan stilled. His smile dropped into a thin line. Immediately, he averted his eyes away from them and looked everywhere around.How come Ryan observed that? His shoulders tensed once again.“No. Why would I cry?” He chuckled nervously shrugging his shoulders, not wanting them to read his face further.“Then why are your eyes red and moist?” Ryan scoffed, narrowing his eyes. “Don’t lie through your teeth
