“I know that you are scared of me. But if we keep running from our problem, when will we solve it? And as you mentioned, he looks so capable, so is there any guarantee that he won't find me in another place? So this is not the solution; don't worry about me. Nothing would happen to me,” Nathan assured her, taking her face in his hands.“Why don’t you understand my fears? I hid everything from you because I don’t want to drag you into this, which endangers your life,” Karina stated.“What do you mean? What did you hide from me?” Nathan questioned in his quivering voice.“N..nothing,” Karina stumbled in her words. Nathan glanced at her without uttering a single word. The gaze is enough to make Karina scared.“Why are you looking at me like that? Say something; you are scaring me without opening your mouth.” Karina tried to talk with him but he didn’t utter a single word and looked at her without blinking his eyelids.“Then answer my question,” Nathan said in a neutral tone, which made K
“Mr. Alex, you are not permitted to join the party. You are still here, and I haven't said anything. I will ensure that if you harm Nathan, your family will be eradicated not only from this city but from the business world and the earth as well. Don’t try to test me because you would have already known about Smiths.,” Gwen passed a warning.Hearing that warning, everyone stood calmly, including Karina. Only Alice opened her mouth in shock.“What’s wrong with this SMith? Why is she defending the scumbag?” She thought to herself. She doesn't dare open her mouth in front of Karina or Gwen.“Ok, Karina, take care. I would be leaving now,” Nathan said to Karina and looked at Gwen. Understanding the meaning of his gaze, Gwen nodded her head and showed her thumbs up.“Great, then I will take my leave. If there is anything, feel free to call me,” Nathan said, not particularly to anyone but to everyone. The person Nathan was speaking to understood his message and responded with a slight smirk.
“Ok, I will finish the work by tomorrow. You should be able to clear everything within two days,” Gwen ordered.“Ok,” the other person said and the call was hung up. After that, Gwen walked away from there. Her guards dropped Karina off at her home and then checked all her surroundings. After realizing that no one was near by who was looking doubtful, they went back.Karina, after reaching home, went directly into her bedroom. “Miss Blackwood, I am going back home now. If there is any emergency, give me a call, and I will be back,” Laid said from behind, who came along from behind."It's already late, so it's unsafe. Stay back here tonight and you can leave directly to company from here along with me,” Karina rejected her idea of going back to him. Alice looked at her, not understanding what to do. She doesn’t know what she wants to do as Kairna is behaving completely differently, which is not known to her. So she was still in doubt about what to do.“What are you thinking? I said st
“Hmm, ok. I am not scared nor am I thinking about it.” Karina easily lied, but Nathan already knew she was lying and he had already guessed she would be thinking of scaring her skin off.“Ok, what else? How is your relationship going with Alex? When are you going to submit papers in court?” Nathan questioned her, which enraged her.“Why are you eagerly waiting to get divorced? Are you waiting to marry Miss Smith?” Karina questioned him in anger.“Did I say to you that I was going to marry her? No, right, I am not going to marry anyone for now. Maybe in the future I might think of it,” Nathan answered and hearing Karina was dumbfounded. He didn't give her the answer as yes or no; he just skipped the answer in a more diplomatic way.Not knowing what to reply and how to reply, Karina opted to stay silent as she doesn't have anything to say to him. However, Nathan knows what's running through her heart so he simply twisted the topic, wiping off the silence between them.They both spoke fo
As Nathan struggled to stand amidst the taunts and laughter of the scarred man and his goons, a fire ignited within him. Despite the pain coursing through his battered body, he refused to yield. With gritted teeth and sheer determination, he pushed himself up, his muscles trembling with the effort."Oh, look at him! Still trying to play the hero!" one of the goons jeered, his mocking laughter echoing in the dimly lit room.Ignoring the insults, Nathan steadied himself, his gaze fixed on his tormentors. His mind raced as he assessed his options. He knew he had to fight back, to show them that he was not just another victim to be toyed with.With a defiant roar, Nathan launched himself at the nearest goon, his fists flying in a flurry of blows. The room erupted into chaos as the other goons rushed to join the fray, their shouts mingling with the sounds of grunts and thuds."Whack!" Nathan landed a solid punch to the jaw of his opponent, sending him reeling backward. But before he could
And the darkness enveloped him, Nathan whispered a silent prayer, hoping against hope that somehow, someway, he would find a way to survive. But deep down, he knew that maybe this was the end.“No, Nathan,” Karina woke up from her sleep with an ear-piercing scream. Her whole body is trembling out of fear, tears are pouring down of her eyes like a river. She isn't in a state to understand that she is in her room sleeping. She closed her eyes so tightly.“Nathan, Nathan, nothing can happen to you,” she murmurs continuously without a break. Her whole heart is filled with his name and the fear totally engulfed all her senses and halted her thought process.She sat on the bed curling up into a ball and started crying miserably. “Nathan, why did you bring yourself into the web of dangers? You are innocent and don't know about the cruelty in the helm of business. We are totally into this and never know who would attack us and when..this world seems so beautiful from the exterior end but it's
“Hmm, nothing would happen by forcing anyone. If you need to achieve anything then you should wait for their response and agree with their thoughts also,” he said.“I can't disagree with this but there would be certain times when we need to force others even after we know it would cost us a lot,” she replied with a deep meaning hidden in it. Nathan easily understood what she was trying to say so he hummed in response. “Hmm.”“Anyway, try to grab some sleep. We will. talk later again,” Karina said that she would be disconnecting the call. She knows it's of no use to talk with Nathan as he won't hear her as he himself became too stubborn.“Hmm, not me you grab it. Don't think much about anything and don't trust those dreams also. Dreams always remain as dreams only. We are not god's to make those come into reality. So don't think about it and spoil your health or mind. Say to your heart that I am fine and I would be fine,” Nathan implicated into her heart that he is fine. “How would yo
Nathan was silently observing all her changing expressions in her face. He has a slight smile on his face as he already knows the experience.After a while Karina opened her eyes with a bright smile plastering on her lips. Amusement filled her eyes.“How are you feeling right now?” Nathan asked her, waiting to hear her experience through her words.“It's a kind of feeling that I can't ever express through words. I have missed all these days a a lot. But, in just the span of a few minutes I have experienced many things. I never expected that I would be able to talk with nature, understand it's.momentum and inbuilt its message deep rooted into my heart,” she answered in a way that she is enchanted with.“Haha,” he laughed hearing her comments looking at her as she turned herself into a blushing queen. After a while he managed to bring control to his laughter as he completely knew that she would be feeling irritated.“This is what I want you to experience. as I am able to.prove myself ri
