Sarah Started eating silently while Xavier was watching her like a hawk. It was so uncomfortable to eat under his scrutinizing gaze. She was still confused that why this man is acting like her enemy and still making her eat breakfast.

She tried to ask him but he was quiet like a statue so she gave up and focused on finishing her food and escape as soon as possible.



She stuffed her mouth with food and stood up. Xavier looked at her and shook his head in disbelief. She ignored him and ran outside while grabbing her purse.

"Hey careful!..."

Ace chuckled as she was about to bump on him. She waved him good bye and walked out.

Xavier stood up fixing his coat and looked at ace who was smiling at him.



"Am I misunderstandings something or you were really making her eat. What's going on man?..."

Ace asked amused.

"Who is the fucking boss here?..."

Xavier glared at him.

"Of course you!..."

Ace raised his hand in surrender.

"Then shut the fuck up and focus on work..."

He spat.

"Yeah, I did that... We got the containers but he is behind it too. We have to be careful until we get the clients."

Ace informed.

"Increase the security and keep watch on him, we have to be careful, he will definitely do something..."

Xavier ordered and Ace agreed.

"But that's not the only problem because Sebastian is also behind it. It's like we have got the big deal, we have to be careful..."

Ace stated.

Xavier sighed rubbing his forehead.

"Just focus on the security and fix my meetings with clients. We need to get rid of it as soon as possible..."

Saying that he was about to walk away but stopped and turned around.



"Have you given the security to Sarah?... She needs it the most at this time. They will definitely target her, specially Sebastian. I don't trust him with my family. He won't think twice before killing her."

Ace raised his eyebrows amused, he sounded genuinely concerned about Sarah. Ace was seeing hope for their relationship.

"Yeah, I asked her but she said that her father has already hired bodyguards for her. But I'll make sure again..."

Xavier nodded and left for his office.

Sarah reached to her office and all the employees greeted her. She went to her cabin and took her medicines.

"Good morning miss... Sorry Mrs. King..."

Mr. William greeted her and Sarah cringed at the name.

"Mr. William please... At least you don't do this to me. Call me Sarah only. And don't mention about my marriage in public. People still doesn't know that I got married on behalf of my sister and I think it's better like that. Because anyway, I am going to get divorced soon."

She said flipping through files.

"Alright miss... You still want divorce?..."

He asked and she looked at him in disbelief.

"Of course... What are you even thinking while asking that. That house is full of toxicity... I want to get rid of this as soon as possible..."

"But miss are you sure that your father will allow you to do this... I mean it's about his reputation and Xavier is giving him security. I don't think it's that easy..."

He tried to put his point forward.

"Once I got this business then he can't do anything. And why are you suddenly trying to change my mind..."

She asked suspiciously.

He cleared his throat alarmed.

"No... I am not changing my mind. I just want the best for you... The procedure will be done in two days And then we can prepare for the divorce as well..."

Sarah nodded.

"And can you please look for a apartment for me... I mean I can't go back to that house after divorce. That man will definitely kill me..."

William thought for a second and nodded.

"I'll arrange that too... Don't worry..."

Sarah gave him a smile and started doing her work while William was lost in his thoughts.

'I don't know what kind of games destiny is Playing with you Sarah. Even after so many efforts and problems you again reunited with the love of your life but you don't remember anything. This is really heartbreaking to see. I didn't believed in any of these things until now, but I guess I was wrong. No one can separate soul mates and you are live example in front of me. Don't leave Xavier because he is the only one who can protect you in this cruel world. I hope he tells you everything because I can't... I can't tell you anything my child, I am sorry...'

"Mr. William?..."

She waved her hand in front of him.

"Where are you lost?..."

She asked and he shook his head.

"Nothing I'll get back to work... Have a good day..."

He forced smile and left her cabin.

Sarah finished her work and it was time to go home. She asked Mr. William to get her car ready.

"Mr. William take doctor's appointment for me..."

He looked at her flabbergasted.

"Why, are you not feeling well?..."

"No, I have a headache from last two days. I took medicines but still not feeling well. And today it's literally pounding in back of my head. I think it's something serious, I shouldn't ignore this..."

She replied.

"Is it the same spot where you got injured?..."

He asked nervously.

"Yes, it's been almost 3 years I can't understand why it's still giving me problems..."

She sighed.

"It was a serious injury, obviously it will take time to get better. I will look for the earliest appointment... Don't worry..."

He assured.

"Or if it's serious then I can call the doctor right now..."

"No, I just want to rest now..."

She denied.

"Alright miss but I am really concerned about your health. Stress can be very harmful for your health, it can damage your brain and doctor has clearly warned you about it. Just don't stress yourself over small things..."

He said looking at her concerned.

"I know and I am trying but people around me seemed to be have different plans for me..."

She sighed throwing her head back.

He stopped the car in front of the mansion and opened the door for Sarah.

Sarah got out and stumbled back as everything went dizzy, she held on the car door so she won't land on the floor.

William quickly held on her arm.

"What happened?..."

Sarah blinked few times and cleared her vision. She stood up straight and shook her head.

"I am okay."

She said not wanting to stress him out.

"Are you sure... We can go to the doctor if you want..."

He said.

"No, it's fine... I am okay..."

She assured.

William was reluctant to believe but she assured him. Sarah walked inside after he left.

When she entered the living room she saw Xavier and her father talking while sitting on the couch. She decided to ignore both of them and started walking.
