Susan's P.O.V.

Ever regret the day thinking why the bloody hell you left the home today? I'm regretting today while sitting in front of an officer who definitely hates my guts or probably killing me inside his head since I refused to speak a word.

Why would I when I did nothing wrong, it was my husband who filed the case, it was he who messed my peaceful life. If I have never visited that hotel with Lisa he won't have seen me, he would have refused to marry me, he would not make me feel things I afraid the most, mostly a feeling of losing someone.

Adrian would be moved on and not spare me a thought, everything would be perfect. At some point it was perfect I was so happy at the night of the ball. I guess it's right that blissful moments go away fast.

I want to go back in time when I was living in heaven with Xavier. Pity at the thought when, now I'm thinking he won't get me out of here because he might think I plot all this to save Adrian. After all, I didn't know him enough after seeing his behaviour last week.

I came out of my thoughts when another officer looking like he ran marathon came inside. He said something to the officer who is interrogating me for the past half an hour and the look he gave me after that said it all. Someone came to get me out because defeat was clear on the officer's face.

It's rather foolish of me to think that he won't come to get me out of this mess. Of course he came, he after all had some ounce of love for me or maybe he did that because I'm his wife.

"Looks like you do play your cards well Mrs Williams but do remember the contract is already being abolished none of its term can't protect you now since you breaches it first." The look he gave me while saying those words proves how strong Ryan has grown.

"I might play my cards well again, then, " with that I stood up, I know I'm in deep shit, but I'll deal with it alone this time.

As soon as went outside Mason ran towards me. It hurts a bit that he didn't came why was I even expecting him? It hurts you right in your heart when you expect something for someone and they fail you.

"Susan I'm sorry I came as soon as I could let's just get out of here. " I just nodded and went out with him.

"Xavier didn't take his charges back." This was not question this is a statement. He is obsessed with revenge.

"I did try, he will withdraw the case he has to do it now, " I stopped listening to him after that to hell with him. I won't let it go now. If he is not stepping down I'll make him to do. Doesn't matter whatever it takes now I'm desperate and scared.

"Susan he is waiting for you at home. Here your bag Sebastian gave this to me. " I took my bag from him.

I saw a driver taking us to familiar route of the building where I live. I won't live with that bastard unless he clear this mess.

"Stop the car. " I shouted Mason look at me as if I had grown two heads. The car stopped at the side of the busy road.

"What is meaning of this Susan you should go home. " The hell I'm going there.

"Don't follow me." I warned him after that I took the pedestrian to go away where ever road will take me. It won't be long before Oliver will come looking for me. Even if Xavier doesn't care, Oliver is damn loyal to me.

After walking around for a few minutes I took a taxi to Lisa's apartment, she might need my help after all her wedding is on the way. I gave the driver the address of her apartment building After I reached the apartment building I gave security my name and details and went to the elevator.

As soon as I reached outside the door, I hear shrieking cries of the baby looks like someone is facing challenges. I rang the door bell and Lisa opened the door looking like a mess.

"I love you, " was all she said as soon as I came inside. The living room is filled with baby stuff everywhere. I have to walk carefully to the couch without stepping on something.

"I don't think I can have a wedding for at least 2 years from now, " Lisa came out carrying a baby. I took her baby from her in my arms.

"I'm sure you can manage it, within six months after all yours is true love. " I told her while cradle the baby in my arms.

"Susan am I hearing you, right? You are married to dream man of every woman. Xavier is crazy about you. " She said while giving a look of sarcasm.

"Yes, and don't you worry, everything will be fine. I'll help you out with almost everything." Liar, liar, pants on fire was my brain chant in the background.

"Thank you, I already felt guilty about letting Adrian talk to you that day because of that only, you are in this mess. He is jerk you know that, after what you have gone through when Ryan tried you know... With you, how dare he to do something like this to you? " She was indeed looking sorry, but what's done is done, I can't undo past now, can I?

"It's not your fault stop feeling guilty I came here to be with you, where is Corey?" I asked trying to distract her.

"He went to his home to fetch his mother, she wishes to see me and angel. " I nodded and talked a bit with her. We mostly talked about the baby stuff. Makes me wonder if I'll ever have one with Xavier.

"I think you should hold the baby while I clean up a bit." I told her this place is messy. I hate dirty places.

"No, no, no, let it be I'll do it later. It feels really odd letting you clean up, think about Billionaire Xavier Williams's wife cleaning her friend's flat. " She is exaggerating.

"That's absurd"

"I'm having terrible cold feet you know about this marriage with Corey, what if he will come out to be like my past boyfriend? It'll not going to be affecting me only this time, but also Angel. " She said suddenly.

"I don't think he is like those jerks, he after all, see you as an equal, don't he? He gave you a lovely daughter and stand by you, many boyfriends gets frightened and leave their pregnant girlfriend, but Corey stayed. Plus, he lets you throw all kinds of tantrums in his way and welcomed you with open arms. Even put a ring on it. " I told her while she nodded dreamingly.

"You're right, I'm just over thinking. Susan when you were going to marry Xavier did you had a cold feet?" She asked, I know what answer she is seeking from me.

"No, I didn't have" Because I never had a choice wherever Xavier is concerned. I was once giving a choice to choose my partner, but lets just say I had bad taste and after that I lost confidence in my choice.

"Xavier must be then perfect groom for you then, " I guess he was everything changed for the fact now.

"Being with someone requires lots of dedication and understanding, Xavier is anything but perfect, but that doesn't mean I love him less. I never denied my attraction and feelings for him, I'm lucky he reciprocates those feelings" But dedicated lover is not enough a companion is what I need most now.

"I'm happy for you, " I smiled at her. After that we shifted the topic to wedding arrangements. After an hour or two I decided to leave for a penthouse.

"I guess I should now go, call if you need anything Lisa and take care of yourself. " I give the baby back to Lisa and went outside.

As soon as I walked outside the building I saw a black Range Rover on the street with Oliver standing outside waiting for me.

"Tell dad, I'm not running away to the countryside." I sat in the back seat waiting for him to drive.

We were on the way to the penthouse when I saw a karaoke club I used to visit a lot when I was in university. I told Oliver to stop the car.

"Oliver come join me for a drink. Just don't report it to anyone please. " I begged him as I went outside the car. I open the door of the club it's old place not crowded at all you can see a few groups of teenagers at some table. Apart from that, the place is pretty empty.

I ordered to myself a sparkling water. I don't plan to get drunk and rant. Oliver didn't join me he just sat there at the bar with me.

"He didn't come to get me out, what is he up to?" I asked him.

"I don't know Susan it's my work to look after you only, " Right.

"I think he is having some wild imagination that I'll leave him for Adrian, "

"No, he doesn't. " Was his simple reply.

"Right, he is sure I'll leave him. I mean I know his biological mother did that with his father, but I'm not that woman. He will never see me in a different light." And a tear ran down at that very moment. I'm frustrated and tired. I just want to go home and sleep. But I know as soon as I will open the door Xavier will mock me.

After calming myself for fifteen minutes I paid the bill with only one thing in my mind "peace". I want all of this to get over by tomorrow.

I didn't wait for Oliver to catch up. I waited a second before crossing the road when it was safe to cross I stepped down to the road. But as soon as I reach halfway I heard violent cries of a car horn. Next thing I know was I'm on the ground with unbearable pain in my head. I saw Oliver shouting and then...
