The Secret Of The Beauty In Black

After that fateful night, everything changed for Jennifer. Gone was the girl who used to smile and laugh along with others, cry in their pain and help them in their need. What remained was only an emotionless vessel who just had one aim in her life: Revenge. -- "No one can control me anymore!! I will live my life as per my wish." She said with hatred in her voice.  .... "Heh...Love is what? The best thing that happened to you?? Tsk..tsk..such a fool. Remember, love is just another name of destruction. The ones who believe in love are all fools. I was also one of them, but not now. I will never fall in love again. Also, don't come crying to me once you face a betrayal." .... "What will it take for you to accept me?"  Jennifer looked at the man as if he had grown two heads!! "Mister I have told this earlier too, I don't want to get into a relationship, so why not stop chasing after me?" .... "Please tell me what should I do to make you mine?" The man pleaded. Annoyed by his questions about the same thing again and again, Jennifer finally replied, "If you can defeat me in a fight, I will think about it."  She was quite confident that no one could defeat her. ------   "You lost...." "No, this can't be true right," murmured Jennifer. She was totally confused and shocked. Never did she think that 'he' would be able to defeat her.  "So what do you want?" She asked with confusion laced in her voice. "Are you sure you will fulfil my wish?" He smiled much to her displeasure. "Yes, I never back down on my words." She spoke back with gritted teeth, showing her displeasure, even though she knew this decision of hers might lead her into something complex. "Marry Me," He demanded. "Wait what?!! But you are gay right?" This was her immediate response to his demand. Who in their sane mind would want to marry a gay? That too with the man with whom she was previously in a fake relationship. He chuckled and slowly bent down near her ear "You will know when you will marry me" he whispered. "You..." ---- Torn between the battle of her brain and heart, Jennifer doesn't know what she should choose?  Should she listen to her brain which was constantly signalling her of the alert or should she follow her heart, which would pound erratically for some handsome 'devil'? Because of her traumatic past, Jennifer had sworn never to fall in love again. To never let her heart skip a beat again for someone. But she fails, terribly; when a certain dashing devil enters into her dark world. Will this devilishly handsome man break the walls of her heart?  Will he be able to help her past her traumas and her insecurities? .... But wait! Who the hell is this man? Well...for that stay tuned and continue to read the story!! *It's a slow burn book, hope you enjoy it.

WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING?

Everyone was stupefied. Silence enveloped in the hallway.

What?

How can that be possible?

Felix was an orphan.

Nolan was the first to break the silence, "Are you kidding Leo? He was an orphan. Don't tell me he hide it from us and lied about the whole thing."

Nolan was not serious with his last sentence. But the look on Leo's face was grim.

"Maybe...he lied." Leo carefully glanced at Jennifer, who seemed to be in a deep thought.

"Show me the result Leo."

"This way Jenny" everyone followed Leo to the second floor.

The house painted in blue-white colour was not as ordinary as it seemed. The hallway was around 500 metre long and had elevators which directly were connected to the specific rooms. They were well secured and thus there were no stairs.

"Are you not going to University Jen?"

"No, I have already told Ava and asked her to apply a leave for me today."

All of them entered the third elevator from the left, it ascended to the second floor.

The door opened, a small laboratory with a round table along with chairs came into view.

The curtains were drawn closed, a transparent file laid on the table. Leo passed the file to Jennifer and by then everyone was already sitting on the chairs.

Jennifer went through the files. Everyone was curious about the information in there. Jennifer's face was devoid of any expression, thus they could only wait till she finished going through it.

After she read the line which confirmed them having sibling relationship, she closed the file and soothed her throbbing temple.

"The report states that he had a brother." Jennifer broke the silence and calmly faced everyone present. She could see their shocked expressions.

"The video which we saw clearly showed us how they reacted when they met. So it is possible that they are real siblings." Jennifer further explained.

"Do you think that he betrayed us Jennifer?" Nolan asked. He clearly knew when to flirt and when to be serious. As a detective he was very serious with his job.

"No, he did not. I will not elaborate further, but I do not want any of you to misunderstand him."

"Okay" came a response all together.

"I want everyone to go and do their tasks which I had asked you to submit me this month end. I will solely handle this case. You can all go now. Jason I wish to talk with you."

All were confused with her statement, but with no further questions they made their way out of the house.

"What are you planning?" Jason was also confused with her. She never had left a case pending and would surely dig down till the end, but this case seemed different.

"It must be true that he hid the truth from us, but he may have his own reasons. During the video gave me a warning through hand signs. He clearly knew that the one who wanted to kill me is someone different, not the one we just killed yesterday. It is a mysterious person who had assigned various groups to assassinate me. He wants me alive."

"Who could it be Jen?"

"I have no idea now but I think Felix tried to tell me more about that person. I will have to see the video again to confirm that person's identity. I have already called Alissa and have asked her to hack the system of the group who killed Felix. The computers were destroyed but were connected to some other computers, and the data can still be recovered. She will let me know tomorrow, so please meet me at my home, we will discuss this later then. I have to go to a party with Ava today so I will be going now."

"Be careful Jen. Make sure to hide yourself well and do not get drunk today, you know what will happen otherwise."

"Yes, I know."

_____________

At seven sharp, Jennifer was standing Infront of a Pub. It had been a year since she had visited a Pub. Ava had messaged her to come to 'Le meilleur resto-bar' one of the famous pub in Paris.

She made her way to room 56.
