Sarah looked at divorce papers, she is supposed to feel happy but for unknown reason her heart was
feeling heavy like this is not what she wants.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
'dont think much about it Sarah... You will be free after this. You don't need to tolerate someone's
hateful comments or behavior. You can do this...'
She opened her eyes and found William standing in front of her.
"How are you feeling today miss..."
He asked sitting in front of her on leather chair.
"As always Mr. William..."
She sighed.
"Do you still want a divorce after last night, I mean he declared it in front of everyone..."
He asked.
"He didn't meant it, it was just his way of creating troubles for me... I don't know why that man hates me
so much..."
She said and William looked away promptly. He knows why he hated her.
He cleared his throat.
"Well, all the procedures has been completed. You are the legal owner of this company now. And I see
you have seen the divorce papers too..."
"Okay and what about apartment I asked you to look for..."
She asked placing the papers back in the envelope.
"Yes, I talked to broker and he suggested some good apartments in safe areas. If you want to Look at it
personally then we can go today..."
He suggested.
"Excellent... I'll finish some paperwork and we will go after that..."
She smiled.
William looked at her hesitantly.
"Miss are you sure you want this... I mean is there not any way to make this marriage work."
Sarah frowned at him.
"You know the reality of this marriage Mr. William then Why are you saying this. He doesn't want me
and I can't stay with the man who is criminal. Okay, let's say that I can ignore that he is a criminal but
he doesn't want me either. He has made it clear that he has no interest in me then What's the use of
trying... I don't like to leave people or hurt them, it's been always the hardest part of my life and you
know that. I can't stay with the people who doesn't want me or respect me..."
'Xavier want you Sarah, I have seen that in his eyes last night. He is still the same old Xavier who is
crazy for you, who can set the world on fire if something happens to you. He is just hurt and he has all
right to be. I know leaving people is the Hardest part of your life and I have witnessed that. It's not your
fault neither Xavier's, you both are victims. You wouldn't have left him if you were not forced and he
wouldn't have let you go if he were powerful. I wish I could make everything like before but I am so
sorry my child, I can't help it...'
William looked at her and nodded.
"I understand miss, I am a old man with old thoughts. Breaking marriage is still a big thing to me.
Please ignore me, we have a age gap in our thinking. I know you will make decisions which are good
for your health..."
Sarah smiled sadly.
"You are with me Mr. William, right?... Don't leave my side ever. You are the strongest pillar of life which
is holding me up. If you left me then Everything will collapse..."
William smiled sweetly at her and patted her head.
"I am always with you Sarah... I have always seen you as my own daughter and I'll always wish the
best for you. As long as I am with you, you don't have to worry about anything."
"You have been always a more father than my own..."
She smiled gratefully at him.
"You will make me cry now... Finish your work and we will go to the apartment..."
He said chuckling and left.
Sarah finished her work and she went to look for an apartment with William. The broker gave them all
the information about it. It was a beautiful apartment with 2 bedrooms, kitchen and living room. The
area was safe and was in the main city. Sarah smiled, finally she is going to have her own house where
she can live peacefully.
"What do you think about it Mr. William... I liked it. I think I should buy it..."
She said happily.
William smiled.
"It's beautiful miss... It will be a great place to live... I'll manage the rest of the procedure, don't worry..."
"Thank you..."
Sarah nodded. She was about to say something but her expressions turned horrified when William
Suddenly collapsed on the floor.
"Mr. William!..."
She rushed towards him and placed her hand below his head before it hits the floor and gets injured.
"Oh my god!... What happened?..."
She panicked looking at him.
"We should take him to the hospital..."
The broker said.
"Yes, please help me..."
They both took him to be the hospital.
Sarah called William's family and waited there with them till doctors finish there work. Sarah was sitting
there impatiently, her eyes were glossy but she didn't wanted to cry in front of his wife and son who
were already scared and crying. William was the only good person in her life and she didn't wanted to
loose him.
The doctor came out of the emergency room, grabbing everyone's attention.
"How is he?..."
Sarah was first to ask.
"He is fine now... Don't worry, it was just because of his low blood pressure. You can meet him if you
want..."
The doctor informed.
Sarah met William and told him to take rest for few days.
"My son will drop you home... The guards are on leave, it's not safe. It's getting dark..."
William said, he sounded weak.
"I'll drive... You need him with you. I'll be fine don't worry..."
she assured.
William looked hesitant but then nodded.
"Drive slow..."
Sarah nodded with warm smile and head outside towards her car. She checked her purse and the
divorce papers once again. Her heart was pounding in her ribcage.
'will he be home right now... May be he isn't, he is out of the country. Will he be Angry if I gave him this
papers, I hope not... It will be freedom for both of us...'
She sighed and started her car.
Sarah was driving when her phone rang. It was Ace, she picked it up.
"Hello?"
"Hello Sarah, where are you now?..."
Ace asked in Panic.
"I can't hear you properly Ace, the network is weak..."
She said bit loudly as his voice cracked.
"Sarah listen... Don't leave your office, you are in danger..."
Ace yelled but she couldn't hear anything. It was deserted road as the mansion was away from the city.
"What?... I can't hear you Ace... What about office?..." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
She yelled trying to drive with one hand and trying to focus on the road.
Her eyes widened as black SUV came in front of her car suddenly blocking her way. Her mobile
dropped from her hand as she held on steering wheel tightly and tried to control her car. But it was too
late, her car collided with the SUV and she screamed loudly. She didn't get injured seriously due to air
bags and seatbelt but she was scared.
She unbuckled her seatbelt with trembling hand and got out of the car to see if the person in other car
is hurt. But when she stepped out she saw two more cars parked behind her car.
The men stepped out it with guns and she Panicked when she realized they are mafia and she is under
attack. Sarah tried to run in the opposite direction but they caught her. She thrashed in their hold as
they grabbed her by arms.
The old man came in front of her and inspected her face. He was looking disgusting with ugly scar on
his face.
"Yes, she is his wife... Take this bitch..."
He ordered his men.
"NO! Leave me... You bastard. Let me go..."
She yelled at his face.
The old man clenched his jaw and backhanded her making her fall on the road. She could feel blood
flowing from her lips and cheek throabing in pain.
She whimpered when he grabbed her hair in tight fist. She sobbed when he slapped her again making
her head snap aside.
"Think before you open your mouth again..."
He growled Angrily at her.
"Boss we should hurry, Xavier know about the attack..."
One man said.
Before they could make her stand and drag towards their car four more car's surrounded them and
men in black came out with loaded guns.
"Fuck... What is he doing here?..."
The old man cursed and panicked.
Sarah smiled thinking it's Xavier but all her hopes crashed down when some stranger man stepped out
of the car instead of Xavier.
He had blue eyes and black hair, almost the size and height of Xavier. He was handsome unlike the old
man.
He unlocked his gun and straight away shot the old man in his leg. Sarah screamed when she saw his
blood.
Her head started feeling dizzy but she shook her head and started running. She was terrified by the
gunshots and dead bodies falling in her way.
Sarah was running when someone grabbed her by arm and swiftly turned her around. Her front collided
with handsome stranger but he had that evil smirk on his face which scared the shit out of her.
"No! Please leave me..."
She sobbed trying to free her hand from his strong grip.
"Sure sweetheart but not Now..."
He chuckled.
Sarah felt presence behind her and Panicked.
"No! Please..."
She screamed when she felt needle piercing in her neck. Soon everything went black as she collapsed
on his chest and he held her up with his strong hand.
"Damn! Xavier has really got some flesh here..."
He chuckled looking at her curvy form.
"Call Xavier and tell him, I have his wife..."
