Chapter 1 6
Brian's POV
A called some of my men whom Aspen trusted to the restaurant. I need to instruct them personally because I don't want anyone to know about my plan. Someone knocked on the door. I opened the door to saw a waitress carrying a trolley of food strolling inside the room she was bending more than needed to push the trolley her top two buttons of her blouse are open. She looked at me and smiled.
" Sir your dinner, allow me to serve it for you."
" I didn't ordered anything, take that away and leave that room. "
" Sir, someone from your home called at the reception and placed the order. "
( That must be aunt she didn't let me skip a meal wherever i am she just arranged it for me ). " Leave the trolley here and get out. "
" Sir, let me serve it for you. " I walked towards her smashed her head against the wall. " Listen you b***h, I don't repeat my self, and i definitely not f**k walking STD's like you so get out before i choked you death here " i seethed.
" So..sorry..try S..ii..rr " she stammered.
" Get out " I shouted at her she ran away quickly. I walked to the refrigerator, opened a sealed bottle and gulped down the water to calm my rage. I strolled the trolley near the table served myself a plate. After finishing the food the clicked the picture of an empty plate and send it to grandma she will not believe me if I told her, she is like this with all three of us when its comes to food.
I called Travis " Travis deliver cameras and mics to Akash, I sending you the details right now, do it now. "
" Si' Boss I will arrange them right now "
" Hmm, do it asap ".
I need to make a full proof plan because we will not have time for a second chance her father will send her away to his investor next week.
Rochelle's POV
" Mom, I will apologise to uncle, you just don't worry. Now, I am going upstairs. I have to finish some work. "
" Okay " she wiped her tears and sat beside my father, my father consoled her and kissed her forehead and make her drink water, I looked at them from stairs and smiled they love each other so much, I want this type of bond with Richard, I want richard to love me, care for me like they did. I locked the door and called Ren.
" Hello ren, I told you they love me. You know mom was crying hysterically when I came here and she didn't asked me to apologise to my uncle as well. It was my dad who asked my uncle to send me abroad. That's why they didn't object to uncle last night. "
" I knew it you'll fall into their trap. "
" No, Ren you are getting it all wrong they didn't see me when they were talking. I was eavesdropping them and I have decided to apologize to uncle or my parents will have to face the dire consequences, my father might loose his job and you know we can't afford that. "
" Are you sure. "
" Yes, I am very sure because if they knew I was there they wouldn't have talked about the past. "
" What past. "
" I had a brother and I was the reason for his death. I try to recall it but I don't remember anything about him. "
" How can you have a brother and why didn't they mention him in all those years? "
" Maybe it was traumatic for them, that 's why they did not mention about him. "
" I don't why but I feel something is not right. Elle, give it thought why they talked about it now, when they knew you are planning to move out"
" I am going to look into matter ren. I want know about my brother and how i became the reason of her death. "
" How will you do that. " she really wants to know about everything.
" He is their son they must have something of him maybe a picture or something. I just have to find out. "
" Okay and what about your eloping plan. "
" How can i elope after this first i have to find out the truth. "
" Do whatever you like. I am not going to stop you, just take care and don't let anyone hurt you elle not emotionally. "
" I won't, I promise. Bye. "
I messaged Maria to drop the plan for now. I told her to tell the owner to give the flat to someone else.
Two Months Later
It's been two months since the day I learned about my brother. I almost checked every corner of the house i did not find any thing related to him. Only the main bedroom was left where my parents live whenever I tried to search that room and every time I got disturbed by someone or thing. Then I got busy with my final exams so i didn't get the time to search. But today i got that chance , i told my parents that i am going to celebrate at the college as we gave our last exam today and we might not meet each other after the graduation ceremony because some of my friends are going to work in different cities or countries. To my surprise they allowed me to go and told me they are going to meet some of her friends so they might not be back till tomorrow.
I sneaked into their room and opened the window so i can come through it later. I said bye to them and reached to the restaurant where me and some of our classmates decided to meet. We chatted for a while. We clicked several pictures. I posted them on my timeline so my mom and dad will believe that I didn't tell a lie. I bid adieu to them.
I reached at home sneaked into the room i began the search. I searched through the room but didn't find anything related to him. I was searching when i heard the front door unlocked s**t how come they are back so early. I cannot go out now or they will caught me i tried to find any place to hide in the room. I looked around and decided to hide under the bed. They came inside mom threw her bag on the couch
" I am going to change " she told dad took clothes out of the wardrobe and went to the bathroom. While dad came removed his jacket and got settled on the bed. Mom came out and dad went to the bathroom. Mom was doing her night regime they chatted for a while and went to the bed. When she is coming back dad asked mom, he is asking about me.
" I don't know and who cares when she is coming back. "
" What do you mean by who cares we have to keep an eye on her until she fly down to Moscow. " ( huh moscow i thought they agreed with my decision not to send me there ).
" Hmm, that's right after that i don't have to bear that b***h again, i will live my life freely. " ( why is mom talking about me like that did i do something to make her angry ).
" But she behaved well. She hasn't disrespected and disobeyed from that day. You did that emotional drama and lied to her about her imaginary brother's death and blamed her for the death. "
" Ohh, it was an impromptu idea. I didn't pre-planned it when I saw her listening. I just blabbered that story. So she will feel guilty and apologise to brother-in-law." ( She surely knows how to play with me and my feelings. I apologised to my uncle. I didn't move out. I erased that thought from my mind, I was searching for something I can get my hands on from my brother like a maniac. That was a lie they f*****g lied to me ).
" When is she flying down to moscow honey."
" In the upcoming week. "
" That 's great, let's plan a vacation after that. We two didn't got the chance to travel together. "
" Hmm sure, we will go wherever you want to go anywhere in the world after we receive the money from your brother. " ( Aren't we are a middle class family. They asked me to earn my tuition fees, my college fees that's why i was working so hard all those years juggling between college and hospital so they don't feel the pressure to pay my fees and now they are planning to travel abroad for a vacation ).
" How are we going to make her agree to go Moscow. "
" Don't worry baby we don't have to do anything brother planned it all already we have to give her a drug with the juice or something, it will make her semi-conscious and it will be easy for him to board her on the flight. Until she becomes conscious she'll be at her future husband's home." ( Future husband who are they talking about i am already engaged who can they make me marry to someone else, I am Richard's and i will marry him only. Do hell with this future husband and Moscow ).
" Do you have any idea who and how her future husband is, I mean about his nature, his business, how he looks ? "
" No baby. I don't know anything about him. I just know that he is very important to my brother and he gives a huge amount of money to my brother for her. I didn't see any picture of him in the office. I didn't even know his name and you know we cannot ask questions to him. "
" Anyway it's none of our business what matters to us is money. "
" Once we receive the money we have nothing to do with her. "
" Yeah, right its has nothing to do with us even if she dies by her husbands hands once we receive money we can enjoy freely. " ( Are they even my real parents ? How can they become so heartless that too to their single daughter. They are not getting me married they are selling for some money how can they stoop so low. I have never seen selfish parents as my parents are they don't even care if i die what matters to them is money and his so called brother business that's why they were so eager to send me to moscow ).
Ren was right, I was so so stupid they just used me like a f*****g toy. I was an emotional fool who didn't see their true colours. I was living in a bubble and they just popped up. I feel like my whole f*****g life is a lie. I heard the sound of my father snoring i slide out of the bed with slow step i crossed the window. I was hyperventilating i need to breathe i need to pull myself up. I ran towards the main gate, i am having a panic attack i tried to take deep breaths but it didn't work. I was just walking when I came to my senses. I realised i've come so far from the house that I don't have a phone with me. I was walking down alley when i felt someone is behind me. I looked back to find it empty. I must be overthinking i said to myself.
