In the private hospital in Chelsington, Edward Knight is in Physiotherapy. Now his face has recovered from paralysis, and both his arms have recovered as well. It's only his legs that still refused to respond despite the best doctors treating him.

"Mr. Edward, so far, your progress is really great. We never thought you would be able to talk at all. But look at you now, you are doing great. Once your legs start to respond, we are very positive that you will be able to walk again," the doctor wa

    "Mr. Knight," Adil and James rushed to greet Xavier. But Xavier's eyes searched and landed on Iris, who was standing beside Adam. Her eyes were on him, too. A myriad of emotions played on her face until they settled between relief and longing. Xavier thought he had imagined it. Because recently, Iris hasn't wanted to do anything with him. She blocked him on every social platform. What made it worse was the revulsion in her gaze in the hospital that day. That hurt Xavier as nothing else could. Xavier forced his attention to Adil, the groom Iris is getting engaged to. He hates Adil and is even jealous of the man because Iris chose him. "Congratulations," Xavier murmured coldly. He sounded more like he wanted to be anywhere but here. But Xavier is a glutton for pain. So he came to increase his pain by watching his wife slowly slipping away from him. "Thank you, Mr. Knight," Adil beamed. James leaned closer to Adil to whisper in his ear. "Get engaged to Iris. I don't want to lose fac

    "Fine, this engagement is off. I don't want to marry a snob like her, either. Now, based on the agreement, half of your Starks group belongs to the Morgans," Adil declared angrily. "Adil, what are you doing? Have you lost your mind? Don't say things like that," Laila chimed in. Adam is pissed, while Iris looks calm. "Laila, didn't you see their attitude? I am their son-in-law. If they treat me this way before marriage, then what respect will they give me after I marry her?" Adil replied angrily, as if he were the one wronged here. Iris smiled sarcastically. "What? Are we being unreasonable? Is that what you are saying here? You have me serve Champagne to your friend, saying it's a custom. He touched me without my permission, and you didn't care. She came here flaunting the dress you bought for her, mocking my choice. But you still wanted me to apologize to her, and I don't want to participate in that conversation. Now you want to cancel the engagement, saying we are unreasonabl

  • Brother-in-laws dark obsession   Celebrate?

    The next evening, Iris is seen standing beside Adil, who was chatting away with someone Iris doesn't recognize. He didn't bother to introduce her; she didn't bother to ask. She is wearing the silver dress she liked, and Adil is wearing a blue tux. He barely acknowledged her since she arrived. If not for Mr. Morgan, she would not be willing to stand by Adil's side like a prop. Adil and the entire Morgan family look happy. Benjamin and Catherine kept glancing at Iris. They both look guilty. Naomi is flirting with Adam, while Tasha is yet to arrive. "Adil Morgan, long time no see," a man in his late twenties greeted Adil with a huge grin. He looked like an Italian with a French beard. Adil smiled brightly. "Neil, how have you been?" Adil shook hands with his friend. "I am great. Finally, you are getting hitched. Will you not introduce your fiancée?" Neil looked at Iris with interest. "Of course, this is Iris Stark, my fiancée." Adil wrapped his arm around her waist, as if he were

  • Brother-in-laws dark obsession   Past?

    In the Stark residence, Iris didn't bother to greet anyone in the house. Catherine, Benjamin, and even Adam stood there, waiting for her. But she didn't spare them a glance. She walked straight into her room. She doesn't want to be rude to anyone. Especially not her parents. But the fact that they decided her happiness with a man who feels that a wife should always compromise on everything to the point of what she would want to wear. Her impending marriage is making her feel suffocated right before it starts. 'What if I don't get engaged to Adil tomorrow? Will Dad be able to cancel their agreement without losing the shares?' she wondered. Xavier's face flashed in her mind. The unmasked pain in his gaze when he heard about her engagement is still making her feel guilty. 'You are a good man. Too good to be true' she thought, thinking about what kind of relationship she might have had with him. That's when a knock sounded on the door. "Iris, can I come in?" Adam's voice rang fro

  • Brother-in-laws dark obsession   Come

    "Come with us," one of the men who looked like a foreigner snapped at Iris. But she didn't move. She just stood there, dazed. "Ahh.." Naomi's panicked scream came a second later. "Shut up, I will shoot you if you scream again," one of them snapped at Naomi. Iris's heart is pounding with fear. She is wondering what she did to deserve this misfortune. "If you want money, I will give you. Let me go," she tried to bargain with them. But one of them stabbed his gun near her temple. "Move," he snapped while the other man grabbed her by her forearm and started dragging her towards the black vehicle, which was parked not too far away. "Brother, save her. They are." Iris vaguely heard Naomi's panicked words. Her heart is pounding too loudly, so she didn't hear the rest. "Do you want me dead? They have guns," Adil's reply came a moment later. Iris felt her eyes sting with unshed tears. The perfect man her father chose for her. He didn't hesitate to abandon her when her life was on th

  • Brother-in-laws dark obsession   An engagement

    Iris was discharged from the hospital. Adam, Catherine, and even Benjamin arrived to take her back home. Catherine was fussing over her, while Adam was there, watching, waiting, for what, Iris doesn't know and doesn't have the energy to find out. Benjamin, on the other hand, is a whole different story. He had been bad-mouthing Xavier since the moment he arrived. "He is an opportunistic ba*tard and a murderer. He is not trustworthy. He killed a guy and was said to have abused his grandfather. The Knights are a violent lot, and their business is failing. They will go bankrupt sooner or later. Xavier had affairs with so many women that he was seen carrying a woman in his arms a week ago. He also took another woman on a private cruise the next day. He is a womanizer. Adil is not like that. He is a good guy...." After some time, Iris stopped listening to him. She plugged in her earphones and pretended to listen to music. The car drive home was tense. After reaching home, Iris was rea

    Adam and Xavier were watching Natasha and Candace who were kneeling outside. Its just been half and hour since they were kneeling, but they looked like they were struggling. At this rate, they might not be able to kneel for even an hour. They both were standing on the first floor infront of the flo

    "Iris, Xavier is busy. Come, keep me company" Natasha instructed Iris who was still standing beside Xavier who was chatting with Adam. Iris glanced at Xavier, who retreated his arm from around her. His way of telling her to do as she pleases. He glanced around the guests and noticed how Desmond ha

    "Indeed, what a coincidence" Adam murmured before helping Iris to get out of that wash room. Candace immediately let go of Iris's hand as if burned. "Mr. Stark, she is my younger daughter. I was just helping her to wash up" Candace lied through her teeth. Iris didn't correct her. Quietly she

    The next evening, Iris found herself dressed in a shimmery silver coloured dress. There are pearl strings wrapped around her shoulders, acting as sleeves. The dress is hugging her frame like a second skin, with pleated high neck. The dress reached just above her knees. The back of the dress is just
