Chapter 27 - His Burning Heart.
"Are you coming to our company? Do you forget I am leaving for the airport in four hours?" Emily asked Adrian over the phone. She was worried for him as he left hurriedly from the company.
" No. I didn't forget. I am supposed to start" he said and exited the Villa.
While driving the car, Katherine's smiling face flashed in his mind. He could not tolerate seeing her happy. He gripped the steering wheel and gritted his teeth.
Adrian knew that his anger is best matched to his inner strength to make her suffer. He planned to keep on torturing her. He wanted her to suffer and made her feel his pain. He had told himself that he would turn her whole life upside down as she did to him.
No matter how much he had to suffer, no matter how many heartbreak nights he had to face. He has to make her suffer. Just so much he would hate her for leaving him like that. It couldn't end in his blissful life because she just left him by heart, like that.
He wanted to complete the game which started with him by playing with his heart. Because he could not live in a world like this anymore. He was going to just get rid of her, tomorrow, or the day after that. Because he was going to make her suffer. Painfully.
He wants to make her hurt so much that she wakes up and screams with pain and she would realize that she was just a toy for him. He wants to make her realize the meaning of her existence is only to suffer from guilt and shame to betray him.
His heart was burning since that day....
…..
Finally, he reached the company and went to Emily's cabin. He observed her doing some important work on her laptop. He sat quietly without disturbing her. Suddenly she noticed him in her cabin and asked him when came. He smiled at her, and replied, " a few minutes back"
"Are you fine now?" She questioned examining his face, thinning her eyebrows.
" Hmm...perfectly alright but..." He answered, giving a sad smile.
" I have no confidence in me that I can handle your responsibilities in this company as your Assistant will also be coming with you." He added.
" If you want to Assist you, I can arrange one person as your Assistant. Shall I?" She asked him to make him confident.
" Great thought. But please arrange a talented person and a trusted one" he said, accepting her to select the person in his mind.
" Then I will ask Katherine or David to work as your assistant till I return. Is it okay?" She asked him with doubt.
" I think it will be difficult for David to manage both Finance department work and to Assist me. I think Katherine is better…" he suggested.
" You are right. She is so talented and smart in taking decisions. Moreover, she is more patient in handling any issues." She agreed with Adrian.
A sly smile formed on his lips but he kept a straight face. She pressed the button on the intercom on the table to inform Katherine. Adrian guessed that she was going to call Katherine so he held her hand and stopped to know Katherine about him.
" You trust her so much then what is the need to inform. Just prepare the order of changing her designation," he informed her.
" It's not what you are thinking. I trust her but there is a small problem. So….I need to talk with her " she reasoned, looking everywhere but not to his face.
" Problem…" he questioned so that he could get any information to trouble her.
" I offered her as my Assistant earlier but she didn't accept due to some reasons. So I wanted to inform her," she explained.
" Denied her offer as Assistant? Why?" What might be the reason??
