All Chapters of HIS MOST WANTED KARMA: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

“You don’t have to say anything. I just didn’t see it coming... I don’t…” Bryan stuttered, rubbing his two hands together. “I just didn’t see it coming, the whole feelings... after what…” he paused and let out a small, frustrated sigh. “You know what, just ignore me. I just want to have this moment with you. This whole 3 months with you, Daniella.”He leaned forward gently and wiped a little food stain from the corner of her lips with a napkin. It made her heart skip a beat and her stomach tighten. She didn’t like that her body was reacting to his touch.She went back to eating quietly, refusing to look at him. She knew if she met his eyes, she might lose the control she was desperately holding onto.The silence was only broken when the telecom on her desk buzzed.Alicia stood up quickly and pressed the button. “Oh, it's fine. Just let him in,” she said.She turned back to Bryan. “Seems like your brother has some unfinished business with me. He’s here.”Just then, a soft knock came fr

It took every last bit of strength for Alicia to reach her car. She sat behind the wheel, her breath uneven, and stared at the paper in her trembling hands.“Positive,” she whispered. Her voice shook. “But… how is that even possible?”Her grip on the paper tightened. “How on earth did this happen? Did Mum and Dad know… before they died?”Her head fell forward until her forehead rested on the steering wheel. She shut her eyes tight, trying to block out the storm of thoughts. But the voices in her head kept arguing, getting louder and louder until she couldn’t take it anymore.After a long breath, she started the engine. She didn’t even think about where she was going; her hands simply turned the wheel.By the time she looked up properly, she was outside Amaya’s café.Amaya noticed her the moment she stepped in. She looked like she had walked through a storm and left the rain behind her.Amaya came from behind the counter, wiping her hands on her apron. “Good morning,” she said, tryin

“Oh, you also bear the name Alicia? That is interesting,” Amaya said, smiling without noticing the serious look on Alicia’s face.Alicia slowly opened her hands, revealing a silver locket. She pressed the clasp and it opened, showing a picture of the old her self.Amaya leaned forward and took it from her. Her fingers trembled slightly. “Where did you get this pendant from?”“You gave it to me,” Alicia said quietly. “On my 23rd birthday. I’d always wanted one, but I kept forgetting to buy it… until you gave me this. Since then, it’s been the best gift I’ve ever had.”Amaya’s eyes widened. She shot up from her chair so quickly that the locket slipped from her hands and hit the ground with a dull sound. She swallowed hard, pointing at Alicia.“You’re messing with my head now… You need to stop. This isn’t funny.”Alicia stood too, unbuttoning her jacket. She slid it off her shoulders and turned slightly, revealing a faint scar across her back.“You remember how I hated this scar?” she sa

She swallowed hard, trying not to let the heat rush to her cheeks. Still, she gave him a quick smile.“You want this lady to cry? Stand up, silly. I’ll be your girlfriend.”His grin widened instantly. He stood, slid a thin necklace around her neck, and leaned in for a soft, quick kiss that gave her many butterflies.“Come, sit with me.”They sank onto the plush blanket spread over the grass. The whole thing felt unreal, like she had stepped into one of those cheesy romance movies, except this time, it wasn’t an actress but her. Her stomach was full of butterflies, just thinking about it all.For the first time in forever, Alicia wished there was no Lucas, no lies, no secret plans. Just this moment.She lay down, stretching out, and placed her head on his thighs. Bryan’s hand went to her hair, his fingers slow and gentle on them.“I was just twenty-five when I met her,” he began. “Fell madly in love with her. She was my…” he paused, closing his eyes with a smile, “…first. My first kiss

Camila couldn’t believe her eyes. She grabbed the side of the couch to stop herself from falling. Her mouth moved, but no words came. The more she tried to speak, the more her balance left her.Diego watched her and sighed. “Please, come back in the evening. I want to talk to my friend… if you know what I mean.”She stepped back slowly, still staring at Zoe. Without a word, she turned and left.Zoe shut the door and faced him. “Who is she? She looks creepy.”“Not someone you should know,” Diego said. “And don’t use those words on her.” He dropped his voice. “What are you doing here, Zoe? Coming to see me is risky. I told you this. If Lucas sees you with me, that’s too risky.”She rolled her eyes. “I’m tired, Diego. I don’t even know what your plan is anymore.”Diego folded his arms and studied her. “Zoe, you can’t fall in love with Lucas. Are you aware of that?”She rolled her eyes again, picked a pack, pulled out a stick, lit it, and took a slow drag. “I missed this.” Smoke slipped f
