Please bear with me. It's 3:04 AM here already and my eyes are heavy with sleep. I could only provide one unedited chapter. Sorry!
The other Presidents cleared their throats and shifted in their seats. They all owe debts. What if she asks them to pay up too? Scrapping their country banks together to pay off the billions they owe Hassride would crumble their economy, so, it would be better they all mind their businesses and live Country B’s president to handle his matter on his own. The old man glanced around, seeing that no president would come to his aid, he swallowed the lump of pride that was stuck at the back of his throat and sat down. “Your Majesty, it hasn’t come to that.” His heavy voice earlier suddenly went low. “As a businesswoman like you called us, we’re strict on marking our allies and curbing our enemies. If you could boldly look at our face and disregard our authority to vomit such atrocious venom, we can’t be guaranteed that you won’t stab us in the back when you see something that would jeopardize our country. So, on this basis, we hereby vote for your country’s removal from the Alliance Nati
At the hotel… Mr. Richard was amazed and proud of Anamika. Watching her teach those old men a lesson reminded him of how her mother was back then. The man sighed and emptied the glass of wine he was holding. The result of his investigation came out yesterday. Anamika is his daughter. After finding out, he told his family before embarking on the journey to seek his daughter. The Quinn family didn’t have much to say, except that they blamed him for just finding out. As for Lisa, she was having a hard time accepting the revelation. The sound of his phone ringing snapped him out of his thoughts. He picked the phone and checked the caller ID. It was an unknown number, but he decided to answer the call. “Hello,” his voice sounded. ‘Mr. Quinn, the Emperor is back from the meeting.’ Mr. Richard bolted up and hurried out of the hotel. … Arriving at the palace, he was brought to see Anamika in the throne room. Anamika hadn’t even stepped on the dais when the man entered. The father and
"Anamika, we need you to do this. In return, your brother's surgical expenses will be taken care of." Those words rushed through Anamika's mind as she stood in front of the door to room 101. Her hand was stretched, ready to sound the doorbell but for some reason, she couldn't get herself to do it. The feeling of fear and anxiety took her by storm and the chaotic throbbing of her heartbeat left no room for her to come up with a better idea. Of course, she knew this idea that Amelia and her mother came up with was the dumbest idea ever, yet, she accepted it and now she's about to dive into the depth of an unclear ocean. Anamika swallowed due to nervousness. Her sweaty palms reminded her that time was of the essence. Still, the fear of the unknown was becoming stronger with each passing second. She looked to her right, then left, the corridor was free of any soul but the glaring CCTV cameras were leeching on her like she owed them money. 'What's the worst that can happen?' she summo
Anamika was scared for him. At this rate, he might die. While she was carried away by his weird pattern of breathing, she didn't know when her hand had gotten to a point of no return. She immediately withdrew her hand like she got electrocuted when her fingers touched his rod. Anamika could swear that the length had stretched to its maximum size. That was the straw that broke the camel's back. The man turned and slammed her to the bed before pouncing on her. He was suffering and had tried everything in him to hold back. He had soaked himself in a bathtub for more than 30 minutes still, he couldn't stop it. He was intending to suffer through the agonizing pain throughout the night but the incessant ringing of the doorbell wasn't helping matters. Thinking it might be one of his people, he went to open the door and asked for the medicine. "I'm sorry for this, but I can't help it." His husky voice sounded close to her ear before his lips touched her neck one more time. Anamika shiver
Anamika stepped forward but those dead eyes staring back at her didn't let her take another step forward. She could only watch as Amelia walked further and further away like a soulless puppet until she entered an elevator door. Confusion laced Anamika's face as she stood there wondering what happened to Amelia. Just then, the door in front of her burst open, revealing a young and handsome man. But he was a tad less handsome than the stranger she slept with. He was Cullen Walkers. "What are you still doing here? I told you I don't ever want to see you anywhere around me!" Anamika jolted. She had admired him to the extent she forgot her place for a moment. His icy tone was a dead giveaway that he was very furious with Amelia. No wonder Amelia was like that. Did he realize that Amelia is not a virgin? But what Anamika didn't understand was, why would Amelia go to see Cullen when she hadn't called her to come over? Also, it was just a few seconds after 6. If the plan had worked,
Mrs. Wales who had a natural haughty look glanced condescendingly at Anamika who was kneeling a few inches away from her and placed down her cup of wine. The woman, wearing an elegant black lace dress that stopped below her knees, walked towards Anamika and sent a resounding slap across her face with her fingers that were filled with large rings. Anamika felt a cut on her lips, and a stinging pain on her cheek, still she didn't dare to look at the woman in the eyes. "You still have the guts to show yourself here after what you did to my daughter? Anamika, I had warned my daughter several times to not count you as a friend but she wouldn't listen. I knew right from when I first saw you that you were a jealous person and would one day cause my daughter harm, but no, Amelia trusted you and wanted you around. Now see, my instinct was right all along!" Anamika didn't utter a single word of defense and stayed silent as the woman continued to spout poisonous words nonstop. Servants
Anamika got to the hospital, looking drained and shattered. She received a call from Nurse Beth to hurry over to the hospital after she was dragged out of the Wales mansion. Although Anamika had no idea why the nurse needed her so urgently, her instinct told her it was something she wouldn't be able to stomach. A distance away from her brother's ward, she could hear loud cries and those voices were her mother and sister's. Anamika took to her heels and barged into the ward to meet the cold lifeless body of her little brother. Her legs froze by the door as memories ran through her mind. In the family of four, only Martin treated her like a family would. Even though he was just 13, he was able to get their mother and sister to stop bullying Anamika whenever he saw them getting on her nerves. Martin promised her he would survive this... He told her that no matter what happened, he won't die because there won't be anyone else to protect her, but why… Why did he have to leave? Why
After she left the hospital, Anamika didn't go home, instead, she roamed the street aimlessly and spiritlessly until night came.The sky seemed to be upset as it poured out rain like it wanted to sink the earth.Under the rain, accompanied by the claps of thunder and fierce wind, Anamika could be seen at the community playground, standing by a swing.Years ago, her brother used to love this particular swing and even marked it. Even when his sickness was starting to reveal itself, her brother didn't stop coming here, until he could no longer leave his bed.When he was sick, the little boy made Anamika promise to get him a swing as a gift if he successfully have his tumor taken out... But now, he's no more!Under the canopy of darkness and the roaring of the sky, a lone soul cried until she couldn't breathe anymore.Throughout that night, Anamika didn't return home. However, when she got home the next morning, she met her luggage outside their apartment, drenched in rain.The door and W
