[ Adeline ]The dinner was quite and I preferred it in that way but by judging Xavier's facial expressions, I knew he was giving me time to open up.Should I tell him about my last conversation with my father or first try to dig into him? I have to find out to which length, he knows about our past and the tangled secrets."Tiramisu for dessert." The water placed our last dish."Thanks, the service is excellent." I said to the waiter."We're glad you enjoyed your meal at our restaurant, Ma'am." He bowed professionally and left."I picked the menu and no praises for me?" Xavier arched his brow."I think the compliments for the hotel and staff is an indirect compliment to you, Mr. Linwood." I replied while taking a bite from my dessert.A moan automatically left my throat as I felt flavours bursting inside my mouth."It's so delicious. I want to kiss the magical hands of the chef." I said taking another bite."That's not possible, Sinora. I may have to fire him." Xavier's deep response c

[ Adeline ]"How are you feeling now?" I asked once we made our way out of the church after the prayer meet and our big announcement. It was an out of blue decision."Satisfied and at peace." He replied in the briefest words but the calmness and the happiness lying beneath his strong demeanor gave my answer.The media bombarded us with countless questions which we answered honestly. Rest was handled by our PR team and social media handler. We were on the news and yet there was no reaction from the Linwoods."And you were wondering where our demons were." Xavier stopped and pointed his finger at our front gates."Yes, I was missing the spice in our life, Xavier but not this much. Anyways, I'm going to handle him. You shouldn't be ruining your mood today. You can go inside through back door." I said to Xavier whose day was very important for him."No, it's alright and I am not scared of a clown like him. He's just a pawn of Linda's hands." He shook his head and led us to greet Arthur wh

[ Adeline ]My life has turned into a spiral, the more I try to detangle the twisted knots of the past which is affecting my present and might also eclipse my future, the more I find myself in the labyrinth of unsolved and soiled past.We haven’t heard from Arthur since last three days, he received a good thrashing from Xavier. Speaking of Xavier, he is the biggest mystery that I want to solve but he surprises me with a new shade of his personality every day. After our awkward moments in his home office, he had been ignoring me for most of the time. Honestly, his bipolar behaviour begun to grow into me. We only talk on the dining table.I decided to visit his office after my working hours to see what is actually going on with him. My work is getting improved day by day. I managed to secure two deals in two weeks which I see as an accomplishment since I am running a company as the boss who takes all decision without being influenced by anyone.Today, I have to meet Daniel Clark to disc

[ Adeline ]"I am not avoiding you, Ade." He looked away. One thing I observed about him that he couldn't lie and whenever he does, his ears turn red and eyes look everywhere but at the person right in front of him."I can buy it if you want but we both know, you have been ghosting me like I don't exist." I said while he cautiously applied ointment on the bruises, his jaws were clenched as his finger tips touched the red fingerprints."I'll kill him." He hissed."No, you won't do any stupidity." I glared him. I didn't want him to fall in any problem because a dickhead tried to hurt me.He shook his head, "Don't worry about me, Adeline. I have dealt with such dicks many times. I won't go to jail if you're worried about the legal complications nor I'm going to kill him." He mused and closed the first aid kit.Meanwhile, our beverages arrived. Xavier took it from the waitress and came back."Have this ginger tea, it will help with the headache." He handed me a cup."Thanks, you're being

[ Adeline ]"Melissa Hart?" I gasped."Yes, you have a sharp memory, Ms. Adeline or I should correct myself, Mrs. Linwood. I am the bastard you just mentioned to Mr. Linwood." The woman, with her sharp wisdom and extraordinary beauty, replied.She dared to match my eyes without hesitation. She is the famous rising actress known for her prominent roles and being the brand ambassador of luxury brands."Ms. Hart, I didn't intend to downgrade you and I'm extremely sorry if my words hurt your sentiments." I apologized but I felt far from being guilty."You actually hurt me and you meant to call me a bastard which I am but you know what does it mean?" She took slow steps towards me, her striking black eyes challenging me to retreat but I stood on my ground."Melissa, sit down. My son and daughter-in-law are here because I called them to discuss a few important matters." Arnold’s guilt ridden interrupted us.Melissa tore her attention from me and shifted to her father who was looking down."
