*********** Cassandra stopped in her position.. in fact, her face also became frozen after hearing her own father's harsh words against her.. 'Shouldn't he become happy after seeing me alive after five years?' Cassandra thought while her tears kept flowing down through her cheeks.. George's stern gaze was like a knife stabbing through her heart...Cassandra's chest immediately felt so stuffy that she wanted to run away... Thankfully, no one was around them other than George, Cassandra, and Marcus.. George again looked towards their surroundings to check whether anyone saw them or not.. to his luck, no one was around them.. He looked toward Cassandra and said in a low tone.. " Follow me, don't embarrass me Infront of my guest" with that, he took hold of her elbow harshly.. Cassandra even winched in pain, but he didn't even notice that .. as he was about to pull her, someone grabbed his hand.. and gently pushed Cassandra behind his back.. "Who the fuc_" George immediately stopped after seeing the fierce eyes of Marcus, who was looking no less than a raging Bull.. Marcus squeezed his hand, and George instantly felt pain.. "Mr. Knight, I was ab_ aghhh" George groaned in pain.. he can't even shout loudly, or else Others will notice them.. even he can't say anything to Marcus since he doesn't want to invite his death by his own! The grab on his hand was becoming stronger and stronger.. while George started begging him silently to leave his hand.. But Marcus's eyes were full of anger..he didn't hear any of his cries.. because the picture of Cassandra crying and begging eyes of 5 years ago was more painful..in fact, that was cruelest..so in front of that, his pain and cries is nothing.. Cassandra was too shocked to say something..but as soon as she heard some cracking sounds, she got back her consciousness..and noticed the teary face of her father, who was groaning and crying while Marcus was still looking red in anger.. Cassandra could clearly see the anger on his eyes.. She slowly kept her hand on Marcus's shoulder..and whispered gently, "Take me out from here.. please." Marcus's pupils moved after hearing her cries.. he immediately left George and looked back towards the red teary face of Cassandra.. she was also looking at his red eyes.. Marcus didn't wait for a second..he took hold of her hand and started walking towards the door... He didn't even spare a glance towards George, who was still crying in pain.. Marcus was cursing himself in his mind for bringing her here.. He thought it would stop him from harming her and he would stop looking for her after seeing that who's backing she has now.. but in the middle of that, she got hurt..she had to hear those garbage words for her dad.. Alex was waiting for them in car while Marcus made Cassandra sit inside, and he sat beside her.. while Alex started driving.. The ride was silent..By now, Cassandra also Stopped crying, but her eyes and face was looking empty..like a lifeless person.. Marcus doesn't know how to handle this situation.. but suddenly, he felt something warm against his shoulder.. He looked towards Cassandra and saw, that she leaned her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes.. His shoulder was a little too high for her..so Marcus pulled her into his chest and made her comfortable.. even Cassandra wrapped her arms around his waist and kept her eyes closed.. After almost an hour, they reached back at their home.. Marcus noticed that Cassandra was sleeping in his arms.. he gently caressed her teary face, which still had tear stains.. He gently took her in his arms and started walking towards the mansion.. "Can we have a walk?" Suddenly Cassandra said, which took Marcus by surprise.. he noticed that her eyes were open and she was staring towards the garden.. He started walking towards the Garden with Cassandra in his arms.. Alex didn't follow the couple to give them some privacy.. Marcus kept walking while the night breeze blew on her face and made her feel a bit better.. Cassandra even snugged more Into his chest.. They both were enjoying their time alone..when suddenly Cassandra said… "Am I that unlovable?" Her voice breaks at the end.. Marcus noticed her pale empty face.. He sat on the grass and made her comfortable in his lap.. he didn't let her to sit on the grass.. After a few seconds Marcus asked, "Do you love me?" Cassandra's eyebrows squirted together immediately because of his question.. She..she doesn't even know his name! She slowly looked into his eyes.. Marcus also felt her stare as he said, "You don't.. Because love is not something, you can force.. In this universe, there are some hidden rules that we don't know.. If you want to live a happy life, then you have to make yourself so strong that others will shiver Before even thinking of hurting you.. Never let the fear of striking out keep you from living your life happily among the people who actually love you.. you have to see beyond.." Cassandra silently Heard him and thought that it's actually correct.. She can't cry over those who didn't thought once before making her cry or before selling her off..so why should she still cry for them! While Marcus was lost in his memories.. short memory of a family enjoying a picnic together.. smiling brightly, playing, talking, And suddenly everything went black... "Why did you bought me five years ago?" Cassandra asked.. Marcus smiled and said "You can say, I was smitten by those green eyes that I could not control myself.." Cassandra chuckled after hearing him..she again closed her eyes and whispered, "This feels so nice.." Marcus also kissed her forehead.. *********** Next day.. Cassandra's pov I woke up and noticed that I am in my room.. didn't I was in the garden with him? ..a small smile crept on my face after thinking about the last night when he brought me back in my room .. that too in his arms.. 'Should I give him a chance?' I asked myself a question..but how can I when he literally kidnapped me and married me! Maybe I should take more time..sigh* I quickly wore my dress and went down for breakfast, but from the upstairs, I could hear some sounds of giggling.. surprisingly it sounded feminine.. But other than me, there's no other woman in this house except for the maids.. So slowly walked down and noticed a beautiful back..and a man beside her.. while my husband is smiling brightly at her.. and instantly my mood became down.. Why the hell he's smiling so brightly!? He never smiled like that with me..scoff* He also noticed me standing on the stairs.. He walked towards me and put his hand beside my back..as he said, "Stel, meet my wife, Cassandra Knight.." 'Cassandra Knight ' it felt so good to hear from him.. That girl also came Infront of me with a bright smile and said, "Finally, I got to see you.. This jerk even got married but didn't informed me.. By the way, I'm Stella Quinn.. Marcus's friend..you can call me Stel like this fool.." I smiled and said "Nice to meet you Stel" I was surprised to see any friend of Marcus since I thought he is just a cold, Ruthless mafia who doesn't have any friends or family..and my this I got to know his name.. MARCUS.. Not bad! "Agh I have someone's company today.." Stella Said and looked back.."won't you come ahead?" She said to the man who was showing his back..after a few seconds, he finally stood up and looked back towards me with a stern face.. And immediately I felt the floor slipping down from the under of my feet.. how..how can he come here!! I was surprised after seeing him Infront of me.. but before I could say something, Stella said, "Cassandra, meet my boyfriend Dean ..and Dean, she is Marcus's wife, Cassandra.." 'Dean?' with a questionable eye I looked towards him..while he gave me a sign to stay silent.. so I didn't said anything.. "Nice to meet you Cassi_ sorry Cassandra.." Dean said with a smile.. "Nice to meet you too Mr. Dean.." I said with a forced smile.. "Oh Marcus, I wanted the documents of West Morocco clan. They are trying to snot a line with Russia, so I need their background pieces of information.." Stella said ..and they both walked towards his study room.. As soon as they left the room..I looked towards the so-called Dean.. He was also surprised as he came near me and said slowly.. "What are you doing here Cassie??" "Huh, shouldn't I ask you that, Zee??" I asked him.. "It's a long story I'll explain to you sometime later..but for now, please act according to the situation.." he begged me.. So I nodded my head.. because I knew, without any reason, he's not here..that too acting as someone named Dean.. "Do you have your phone with you?" He asked me..and I shook my head because Marcus had taken my phone with him.. "Ok, keep this phone with you.. I'll message you about the time and location.." Zee said and gave me a phone.. without thinking much, I took this phone from him because I also needed to tell him more about my problems.. "Do you two know each other??" Suddenly Marcus's cold voice came from behind, and we two instantly looked behind, and we were greeted by two pair of cold eyes.. I gulped down my own saliva in fear Because I didn't wanted to let him know about Zee's real identity.. it might become risky for Zee.. and I need to protect him.. But what should I say now!!!!
