20) Stressed!

Authors pov

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. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

"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.

"Why you are so late Sarah... Is this how you behave in this house..."

Peter stated and she halted in her place.

She closed her eyes frustratingly. This is the first time he is meeting her after wedding and this the only

thing he has to say.

Xavier didn't interrupted Peter and was ready to enjoy her situation, he leaned back and waited for

drama to start. He was sure that Sarah won't hold back and argue with her father.

But Sarah was in no mood or condition to fight, her head was already throbbing in pain. All she wanted

to do is, sleep.

She turned around sighing.

"I had important meeting today..."

She mumbled.

"You are married woman now... This is not expected from you. You have certain boundaries which you

shouldn't cross... The Donna should be responsible enough and your husband should be your first

priority..."

Peter scolded.

'yes, the husband who doesn't want me and still mourning over his ex-girlfriend. And I am responsible

enough, at least not like your second daughter who is whoring around and ruining your name. I am way

better but disgusting man like you won't understand that because you have owed to make my life hell.'

She thought bitterly.

"I'll keep that in mind..."

She replied and Xavier frowned, this is not What he was expecting.

Thinking she is may be respectful towards her father he didn't interrupted. He stood up fixing his coat.

"Let's have a dinner first... We can discuss things there..."

He said and Peter agreed.

They all sat at the dinner table, Sarah had no apatite after meeting her father.

Her hate was increasing day by day for this man.

"How is everything going in the company..."

Peter asked.

"Good..."

She mumbled.

"What about the new project, did you got it... I heard Anamika was also behind it..."

He questioned taking a bite.

"We are trying..."

She replied looking at her plate. She knows that he know everything but still he is talking it in front of

Xavier. She couldn't understand what is he trying to prove. 'That how strict and good father he is.'

"Take Xavier's help in that, he can help you... Anamika is a smart woman, you can't win against her..."

He stated and her heart sink.

'Its almost in my favor, I will get that project in two days but can't you just believe in your daughter for

once. You know more about the girl who is my competitor and believe in her more than me. Plus you

showed in front of Xavier that how much incapable I am to handle everything. Why is it so hard for you

to appreciate me...'

She sighed looking at her full plate.

She looked up and nodded at him blankly, talking back and arguing will only create scene and she

didn't wanted to give any kind of entertainment to Xavier.

Xavier frowned at her behavior, the Sarah he knows is wild cat not a silent dove like this. He looked at

Peter suspiciously, thinking is he treating the same way like his own father treated him.

"I thought we talked about Natasha, then why you Gave me Sarah at the last moment..."

He asked Peter, wanting to know his intention about Sarah.

Sarah looked at Xavier with sad face.

'Why these people want to make it so obvious that they don't need me in their lives. Am I that

unwanted.'

Peter looked at him alarmed.

"I talked about it with Richard beforehand, he said it won't be any problem. I had no intention to change

the bride at last moment but Natasha left me no choice. She ran away for other man at the last

moment. But Sarah is not a bad girl, she can be perfect wife for you..."

Sarah looked at him disgusted. He was literally pleading Xavier that 'don't get mad and give me your

fucking security.'

"And of course it will be unfair to marry her to you if she is in love with someone else. Natasha is quite

sensitive you know, she can't adjust so I have to think for her..."

'why there is so much discrimination in two sisters... He forcefully married me off to this monster and

trying to give her the love of her life. while I am trying to be the good girl and she has done nothing but

spoiled his name... enough is enough...'

Sarah had enough of this shit and stood up from her chair making both of them look at her.

"Am I bastard, dad..."

"Sarah?"

Peter frowned at her words.

"Yes! that's how I feel because you can't be my father. I am tired of you and your ways to treat me. you

are worried about Natasha who has done nothing but create a problems for everyone and you didn't

even thought twice about me while marrying me to this man whom I don't want... am I that unwanted to

you, what is my fault that you are treating me like this... It's better if we don't meet again, because I

don't want to see you. If you get free time after criticizing and killing people then think what you have

done wrong and how you have treated me... All I wanted is your love and you can't even give me

that..."

She said bitterly and walked upstairs.

Peter sat there shocked by her words. Xavier rubbed his forehead frustratingly.

"I'll let you know about the rest... I think you should leave now..."

He said to Peter and walked upstairs. he was right, peter is not treating her right.

When he entered the room he saw Sarah in front of vanity table, she was silently crying.

He walked towards her and placed his hand on her shoulder.

Sarah turned around and pushed his hand away.

"Don't touch me. If you are here to mock me about my messed up life then you don't have to."

she was about to lose balance as everything was feeling dizzy.

Xavier looked at her madly.

"Are you fucking crazy... I am just___"

His words stuck in his throat when Sarah closed her eyes and started falling back.

He quickly caught her before she could fall on the ground.

"What the fuck... Sarah?..."

He patted her cheeks but she was passed out.
