30. A new mission

*NAZLI*

I woke up on hearing ruffling in the room.

Ferit was staring at the mirror and fixing his tie.

He turned to me as I sat up, "Good morning" He smiled. The way he acted as if nothing had happened between us last night made me blink a couple of times.

"I can't stay because I have a meeting in an hour" He glanced at his watch and sighed. "I'll pick you up in the evening with Bulut" "Okay" I replied.

The shade of his eyes darkened and he climbed onto the bed. His hand softened on my face and his thumb traced down to my lower lip, "You're mine in the evening" He rasped before placing a soft kiss on my lips.

"Bye" He smiled before walking out of the door and I took a deep breath. His words repeated in my head sending shivers down my body.

*FERIT*

After the meeting, Engin turned to me with a huge grin. "The project will definitely be ours" "Yeah, probably" I replied.

"What did you tell Nazli?" I switched to a more important conversation. Engin glanced at me, "She had to know" He shrugged, "You were being unfair to her" He told me.

No matter how much I denied in my head, my heart knew that he was right. I wasn't sure of what to do anymore. Maybe what I felt for Nazli was just lust. Maybe it was more. It was too complicated.

I've fallen for women multiple times, and the ones that lasted the most have hurt me the most... But with Nazli, things were different. She has never hurt me, but I had been the one torturing her.

"Mr.Ferit, I've gathered our lawyers" Mrs.Iqbal walked into the boardroom suddenly followed by a group of officials. "Why? What's going on?" I frowned at them. "Mr.Hakan and Mrs.Demet... They raised a custody case in the court for Bulut" Mrs.Iqbal sighed.

Engin's eyes widened, "Wait what?" He turned to me. "His shares..." "Exactly" I clenched my fist. Demet and Hakan wanted Bulut's custody so that they can get Demir and Zeynep's shares.

"Are we surprised that Hakan would stoop down to this level?" I paced up and down the room. "When is it going to be?" "After a week" Mrs.Iqbal replied. "Who all know about this?" I asked her again, "I'm not sure Mr.Ferit... I haven't told anyone. I don't think anyone else knows" She replied. "They want to ruin the child's life" I grumbled.

"We are getting Bulut's custody. He won't stay in Hakan's house" I told everyone clearly and they nodded. I can't let that bastard or his wife win.

After the busy day at the company, I drove to my mother's place to collect Bulut. To my horror, even Hakan was there. "What are you doing here?" Hakan and mom got up on seeing me,

"I came to visit Bulut, it's been a long time since I spent the day with big boss" He grinned at me and I had to restrain myself from punching his annoying face. "You raised a custody case for Bulut" "Yes" He smiled.

"You and Nazli are unfit parents. Many people believe that" He smirked before turning back to my mother, "I'll be off Mrs.Leman, remember what we talked about. Good day to you both" He walked away.

"What were you talking about?" I turned to my mother, her face was pale now. "Uh... The custody... He told me about that..." She mumbled. Lies. Every word, but I didn't want to waste my time talking to her.

"Where is Bulut?" "He's playing in his room" She replied. I hurried inside to get him, staying next to my mother was the least thing I wanted now.
