Mr Possessive ✅

Chapter - 31

Anna's POV-

"What do you mean, you know? How?" Asked David.

"I heard you guys yesterday," I replied to him.

The shock was clear on their faces. We all were quiet for some time. They must not be expecting this reaction from me.

Actually, I wouldn't believe myself, that I could come out of this. But since I met Xavier, I have changed a lot.

I got this courage to do things right for me. So, I am going to do that only. I will bring Justice to my parents' death.

"How are you? We didn't tell you because we thought..." David tried to explain.

"I understand." I replied.

I understand them because I know that I would have done the same for them too. They didn't want me to get scared and hurt by this news.

'So this was the reason. That's why your eyes were red yesterday... and I didn't notice that you were in pain. How could I not see it?' It was Xavier, who was kinda talking to himself.

It hurt me, how he was beating himself because of this. It's not true that I was in pain but I survived the night only because he was with me.

"You helped me a lot yesterday, Xavier. If you would not be with me, it would have been impossible to get through last night." I said. "So please don't take it otherwise because we don't have time to waste. We are going back right now."

"No, it's too dangerous for you to go right now. We will wait for 1 more day." Xavier refused.

"I know it is dangerous but I am planning to use this as an opportunity to catch them in the action. They will surely try to harm me as I don't listen to them anymore and I will be 18 within two days. We don't have solid proofs against them so it will be our best shot." I suggested.

"Making you a bait. Never gonna happen." Xavier said.

"Xavier is right we can not take this risk. It is too dangerous and we don't know what they are capable of." David agreed with Xavier.

"I don't care if it is too dangerous, I want my revenge. I want to see them behind the bars, and I will do everything in my power to make that happen. It's up to you if you want to help me, and if not, I will have to tell you to stay out of my business." I could feel the hatred blazing from my eyes.

I could tell that they saw the obstinacy of my decision. They didn't have a choice but to agree with me.

***************

I was sitting at the dining table with my so-called 'family'.

We returned that day after our long discussion. I stayed for a day at Kate's house to prepare myself.

Kate still doesn't know about anything. I didn't want to involve her in this mess.

Yesterday, I was with Xavier and David. We collect and analyze every possible thing that we could use against them. Xavier's dad was meeting with the trusted shareholders.

It was evening when I got a call from my aunt. She asked me to join them for dinner today.

I was scared but I could not step back now.

I remembered how Xavier's mom almost locked me to not let me come here.

Xavier was holding my hand tightly all the way here. The worry and hesitation were clear in his eyes. But I had to do this.

We stood in front of my house for like 30 minutes which felt like an eternity.

I smiled at him. I tiptoed and kissed his lips lightly but just as I was backing away he pulled me back to him and kissed me hard.

His anger, fear, frustration was clear in his hurried and needy kiss. Even in that severe situation too, his kisses were addictive.

I had to literally beat myself to stop because if I didn't, he will not leave me.

I distanced myself from him and put my arms in between us.

"I will take care of myself, I promise." I said and walk away.

So that's how I am here. They all were faking it, I can see it clearly. But still, I played along.

The agony I felt when I saw them and it reminded me that they took my parents away from me.

I was sure that there was something in the food but I had no choice but to go with their plan.

I could feel myself getting lightheaded.

Why is that? They didn't give me poison. Right? It would be too obvious. They can not be so foolish. I didn't think about it.

I didn't realize when I lost my conscious.

Am I really gonna die just like that. That will be a very shameful death. I didn't take revenge and didn't put those bastards behind the bars. I can't die like that.

*****************

I opened my eyes and saw darkness. Everything was dark around me.

Am I alive or am I dead? I could feel the pain in my whole body like someone had beaten me. If I am feeling the pain that means I still not dead. Right? Where I am?

I could hear some music and chat somewhere. That means I was not dead, yet.

I had to get out of here. I don't know how long I have been in here. With the sound of my empty stomach, I could tell that it's been hours.

If it was the next day, then everyone would be waiting for me in the company.

I had to get out of here. Where the hell is Xavier? Will he come to save me in time?

Just then I heard someone approaching me. That guy had a gun in his hand.

Or maybe he will not be able to make it on time...

Then the gun fired and I could feel my heart stop.

**************
Hello, sweeties.

I know I ended this chapter at a very critical moment.

Let's wait and see what will happen next. If Xavier could make it on time to save her from dying or will this story end unexpectedly.

See you guys soon.
