[ Adeline ]"Ashley, the girl whom Mom insulted and threw out of the house, next day we left the house?" Arthur looked between his mother and Xavier."Yes, how can I forget that whore. I caught her riding my husband in her stinky skirt." Linda scoffed.I cringed on her bold vocabulary."Ashley contacted him recently and told him about their daughter who turned out be Melissa Hart." I said since Xavier wasn't there when I met the young girl with hidden intentions."She was at the farmhouse?" Linda narrowed her eyes at me."Yes, she was there. I bet she's still staying to make up with her father for the lost time." I told her and watched how her expressions changed.She was playing with her wedding ring. The tension in the air could be cut with a knife. They were my enemies yet I allowed them to have a civil conversation with us."What does Melissa want? Do you have any idea?" Arthur questioned me."I met her hardly for two minutes. How can I read her intentions. I don't have some speci

[ Adeline ]"Are you sure, I mean you really want to come with me to this trip?" He blinked his eyes to assure what he just heard from me."Yes, I'd like to go with you if you promise to bear all the expenses except my shopping bills. I prefer to pay for my own stuffs." I said in a joking way and a smile spread on his face.His eyes gleamed."Thanks." He said, "Don't worry, I'll pay all the bills including your shopping bills even if you buy the whole market. I'd love to pay for it." He added."No, I can't take your money. This is something where I want to make a rule. I don't want to financially depend on someone. I have bitter memories. You know what I mean." I bit my tongue."I understand and I'm not a douchebag who taunts his wife for spending his money. Look, Adeline." He held my hand and I again felt the same jitters in my tummy, "I have no one to spend the money I earn by the hard work of earn day and night."His words touched my heart."I understand your sentiments, Xavier but

[ Adeline ]“Look, Melissa, we don’t want you here. Spo, if you leave on your own, that would be good for both of us or we need to call the security.” I said to the psycho girl who was grinning ear to ear.“You want to throw me out of your house when I am just being a civil neighbour?” Melissa faked politeness and to be honest, she was getting into my nerves and I just wanted to push her out of my house so badly.“We are very civil to you, Miss Hart but you can’t listen us properly, I think because we aren’t in a mood to entertain unwanted guests and you’re definitely the one right now.” Xavier said to her in a threatening tone.“Why are you mean to me, Xavier? It’s not my fault that I was born out of an illicit affair. Arnold Linwood destroyed my mother’s life but she never sued the Linwood family or my biological father. She told me when she saw the news of Arnold’s retirement and the company being split among his family members. We weren’t before I became popular as an actress. If

[ Adeline ]“I don’t think I can do this, Xavier. The whole group of bandits are here.” I shook my head when my eyes landed on the reunion of the conspirators from the foot of the staircase. Arthur and Addison were there yet and I prayed they’d not come.“Let’s get done with this as soon as possible.” He said in a detached voice.“Yes.” I shook my head and we together walked in the living room.“Good evening, family. It’s nice to see you all after a long time.” Xavier greeted them and their attention diverted on us. I chose to stick by Xavier’s side to hide my discomfort around the two family.“Ade, my sweetie.” Mom rushed to me and pulled me in her tight embrace.“How are you, Mom?” I asked her.“I miss you, my love. You become so busy in your work and new life that you forgot your mother.” She complained but how could I tell her that I am avoiding Dad.“It’s not your daughter’s fault Mrs. Greyson. I don’t let her leave her side whenever she’s free from work.” Xavier saved me from an

[ Adeline ]Xavier’s cold eyes were fixed on my father. I felt like I betrayed him and right in the moment, I wanted the earth to swallow me alive. I couldn’t see him in the pain of being kept in the dark.“It’s better you hear this out, young man. Come and sit here.” Dad sounded extremely calm whereas I was fretting.“Xavier, please come with me, I’ll explain you everything.” I tried to reach for his hand but he made his way towards my father without sparing a glance at my direction. It hurt me.“Mr. Greyson I heard you talking to your daughter about your revenge plans if I put it in my words. What has my family done to you? As far as I remember my Dad considers you as a very good friend.” Xavier said very calmly but I could feel anger bubbling beneath the layer of the calmness.“Like I said, sit down and here me out, Xavier.” Dad poured him a drink in my glass.“Xavier, let’s go from here.” I begged him.He showed me his palm, “Adeline, I want to hear everything from your father.” H
