Something called period cramps

"You think you're quite smart, don't you?"

Jessica froze when she heard those words. She thought she won't be discovered here & could escape with Zach. Though, she didn't care about Lily. She turned her face & saw Daniel glaring at her & Alice flashing her a smirk. She shuddered under their watchful gazes.

"I think you care about your life as well, right?" Daniel asked.

Of course, she cared about her life! Who wouldn't? After all, she had her parents to support her, a fiancé to lean on & a beautiful life ahead. She was just faced with a dilemma?

"I just heard that you got engaged last month", Alice waved a few photos in front of Jessica's face, "So I think you don't want to end your relation... with your fiancé?" Jessica's facade broke & she was clearly dumbstruck. How did they..get the photos of seducing a tycoon?! That...she was just too helpless, then. Horror was clearly written on her face.

"That...that...", Jessica stammered, "Will you spare me...if I help you?"

Alice glanced at Daniel before speaking, "We will think about it..."

"If you decide to help us", Daniel finished her words.

"I'll help you! I'll help you!", Jessica nodded violently, "You want evidence, right? I'll give them to you. If you want..."

"Give me your phone number", Alice cut her off.

"Yes! Yes! Yes!", Jessica unlocked & handed over her phone to Alice. She hurriedly dialed a number & gave a call. A phone roared in the dark. Alice took out her phone, "Hmm...remember your words."

She turned around & left with Daniel while Jessica stood frozen in her place, her mouth twitching from extreme discomfort.

Pink Villa

A car was parked not too far away, overlooking the villa. Its shiny black color made it difficult to ignore it under the stars.

"Master Sen, how long are we going to wait here?" the driver seemed a bit impatient.

"I had already informed her that I'll meet her tonight. You might as well get down from the car if you're bored", the man in the back seat sounded rude.

"Ah...no! No!", the driver smiled awkwardly, "I'm okay!" He was well acquainted with the master's temper.

Vivek Sen.

Who was he? You might be wondering, right?

Well, you remember the young superintendent who was present at Little Hearts. It's him!

A few moments passed in silence when two bright headlights moved forward gradually from the opposite direction. Vivek squinted his eyes with a great mood of scrutiny.

The driver's side of the car opened & a man wearing a white shirt & brown pants climbed out. He walked to the other side & opened the door. A lady in an elegant red dress stepped down & smile warmly at the man before placing her hand in his. To be precise, a brown coat was hanging on her shoulders.

Alice! That was Alice! It was really her.

Vivek's eyes darkened as his suit, 'So, she already has a man beside her?' He was in deep thoughts.

The driver felt the temperature inside the car dropping down to -10 degrees. He might very well turn off the A.C. With a shaky voice, he spoke, "Mas-ter?"

"Hmm", Vivek responded, "Let's return back to the Family Villa."

"Yes, master!", the car became lively with the engine's roar.

The next morning

Private Villa, Heavenly Estates

Cath slowly opened her eyes to discover the unfamiliar ceiling & unfamiliar surroundings. She immediately sat up & brushed her hair in an attempt to remember what happened last night. Unfortunately, she couldn't remember anything. What if... she did a huge mistake last night? But, wait! She wasn't drunk, was she? She glances down & saw that she was wearing a completely different cloth. It was a knee-length frock, pale blue in color. She grazed it with her hands before she got down from the bed & made her way out of the room. She looked around & realized that the place was quite large than she thought.

She slowly descended the stairs made of palm tree planks with a shiny finish. It felt velvet soft at her bare feet. As she got down slowly, she could hear a voice nearby.

"Nah! Just got down from flight yesterday."

"Hmm...she might get scared if she wakes up."

"You should come as quickly as possible."

"Umm...bye then."

Cath finally stepped down the stairs & saw the vast expanse of the living room & a man cooking something in the kitchen attached to it. He was wearing a tee which complimented his broad shoulders & his chiseled biceps perfectly. Underneath, he wore a loose chocolate brown Bermuda. She gulped & the man turned to her. Oops! It's the same man last night. She blinked a few times.

"Oh...you're awake", saying this, the man poured a glass of water & walked out of the kitchen.

He handed her the glass & made her sit on the single couch.

Cath finally got the guts to speak, "I...I mean...How did I...?"

"Who told you to roam about in the street when you were quite sick?" he reprimanded her. The daring Catherine Brittany looked like a little kitten under his gaze.

"You got something called period cramps & you fainted."

Cath looked at him with surprise.
