Sebastian's drive back home in his car marked the end of a long and exhausting day at the office.The sun was dipping below the horizon, casting a warm, golden glow across the city, but all he could think about was the relief of finally being on his way back to the comfort of his own space.Sebastian leaned back in his seat, allowing the weariness of the day to wash over him. His shoulders, which had carried the weight of countless tasks and responsibilities, now relaxed as the tension slowly melted away.The traffic moved at a leisurely pace, and Sebastian's thoughts drifted to the prospect of a quiet evening ahead."I guess, I should think about taking an initiative in our relationship not as a husband but as her friend.As it's just a contract marriage so there is no chance of growing love between us.But at least we can become friends and help each other throughout the journey to lessen the pain which we were carrying as a burden inside our heart."Sebastian talked to himself in h
As the evening sun cast a warm, golden glow over the city, Sebastian couldn't shake the gnawing worry that had gripped him since he got the news of Amelia's missing.Amelia had been missing for hours, and every passing moment seemed to deepen his concern. With a heavy heart and determination in his eyes, he decided it was time to take action.Stepping out into the early evening in his car Sebastian retraced his steps, hoping to find any clue that might lead him to his missing wife. He chose to drive himself , getting into the car and started driving at full speed to reach her as soon as possible. The city streets were now a tapestry of changing colors as the day transitioned into night, but his focus remained unyielding. He began by visiting places where she might go, asking locals and business owners if they had seen her.But failed miserably when he could not collect any news regarding her.The cool breeze of the evening did little to ease the turmoil in Sebastian's mind. His t
After finding her at every possible place, Sebastian lost his only hope to find her."Where are you Amelia?"Sebastian questioned, sighing in disbelief.When all of a sudden he heard some noises and turned back only to witness some people wearing masks and hiding their faces behind that mask.Sebastian doubted their intention so he tried to leave the place by getting inside the car when all of a sudden one of the goons blocked his way."Excuse me! I wanna go from here. Give me some space."Sebastian tried to make his way from the side when the man blocked his way again."We also want to send you from here but not before enjoying a little bit with you.",The goon smiled mischievously."What do you mean by that ?"Sebastian turned around, confusion visible on his face clearly.The moment he turned he received a tight punch on his left cheek which made her vision blurred for a second as he had no idea of what happened to him a moment ago."What the hell?"Sebastian yelled, holding his cheek f
The morning sun peeked over the horizon, casting a warm, golden hue across the surrounding area. Dew-kissed blades of grass glistened like a thousand tiny diamonds in the gentle light. The world was bathed in a serene stillness, broken only by the melodious chorus of awakening birds.When the outside world was busy showing nature's beauty, the inside of the Reynolds Villa was in chaos, witnessing Amelia missing for the last twenty four hours."Mom, Maria just told me that Amelia has been missing since yesterday. What should we do now? ",Noah questioned getting tense."Calm down son. Maybe she has gone to some of her friends. She will come back when she wants, after all she is not a baby anymore whom we should look after."Emma said casually."But Mom, she never left home without informing anyone as she knew her responsibility.Moreover, I have called her friends and they informed me that she never came there nor they know anything related to her.",Noah uttered getting hyper."Then as
After finding her at all the possible places the trio came back to the villa losing all their hopes to meet her again."I think we should call the cops and inform them about her. They will help us to find her soon."Noah suggested walking inside the hall."Oh! No. If cops get involved in this matter then chances are high that my name will also get involved in it.",Leo thought in his mind, getting scared."I don't think there is any need of involving cops in this, I mean that girl doesn't deserve much attention from us.",Emma scoffed."So all of you are back finally ?",The Butler asked from behind, catching everyone's attention."Dad","Grandpa","Yes! I am back. But where were you guys missing ?",Aiden asked, narrowing his eyebrows."Umm...we..actually..",Emma stuttered while speaking as she found no excuse to escape from the situation."Hmm..Tell me.. I am waiting.",Aiden said, staring at them."Actually Grandpa, we went out to search for Amelia. She has been missing since yesterday."
The moment they all went into her room, they got the biggest shock of their life.Sebastian was lying on the bed, bandage wrapped around his head and eyes closed."How the hell did he come here when the goons beat him to the verge of almost death ?",Leo thought in his mind, getting nervous."What if he opened his mouth to reveal my truth in front of everyone ? I am sure this old Butler will not waste any second to throw me out of this villa.",Leo gulped in fear thinking about all the possible consequences."How are you feeling now, Sebastian ? ",The Butler asked, coming near to him, holding his hand in his."I am fine now, Grandpa.",Sebastian whispered , opening his eyes slowly."The doctor advised you to take as much rest as you can, and have proper diet and exercise for your early recovery so please don't stress yourself too much.It's not good for your health.",The Butler suggested, squeezing his hand lightly."I will try my best."Sebastian mumbled still his half eyes still open."
After everyone left, Amelia thought to freshen up so was going to stand up when Sebastian held her wrist from behind making Amelia turn in his direction."Do you need anything? Should I call the doctor?"Amelia asked, getting tense."No.. I don't need anything.",Sebastian mumbled softly, trying to open his eyes."Then ?",She questioned, staring at him confusingly."I want to know what has happened with you since the last twenty four hours?",Sebastian asked looking into her blue eyes deeply."Please don't make any excuses or try to hide the truth from me. I request you.",Sebastian requested, before she could deny sharing that to him."Hmm. I will tell you everything but before speaking I want you to promise me that you will not lose your temper and listen to me silently without interrupting me in between.",Amelia looked at him with so much innocence that he could not deny her request."Hmm."He hummed in response, giving his approval to her.#Flashback_Starts_Actually I was so lost when
#Flashback_Continues_"This is what we called life, my child. You will not get everything you desire, maybe because God knows what you are praying for is not good for you.He has his own plan where you have to experience the mess so that when you come out of it you will become the best.Because he heard those conversations behind your back which you did not trust his process.He will never disappoint you in the end.Unlike the human beings who become the reason for our disappointment.",Her father explained, smiling at her."But how will I face them everyday who don't even want to see my face as they feel disgusted watching me ?",Amelia asked sadly."Why do you want to face them ? What's the use of having such people in our life who don't want to see your worth?",Her father asked her back."Because they are family. How can we ignore them?",Amelia questioned , shaking her head in disbelief."If they think of you as their own family member then they never hated you in the first place bec
