TYLER

"If we get a decent investor then the stocks for the launch of-"

"Later." I cut my secretary in middle and gestured him to leave.

Once he was out of the sight, I rested my head against the chair and gritted my teeth in frustration. Glancing at the phone, Ayla's smiling face flashed on the phone wallpaper and I couldn't help but unlock the phone. My fingers itched to press on the call button but deep down I know that this time she's not going to answer it.

Last night was a mistake. A fucking drunken mistake. I shouldn't have called her and confess whatever the shit I'm feeling about her and get myself humiliated. She was never mine to begin with and I never intended to develop any emotion for her. It was all simple. A lie. A lie to make that Bastard suffer but in the end it backfired.

Being with her for all those years, I never knew that when she became this important to me. Maybe it was when she treated me like a normal human being rather than being with me for my wealth ? Or maybe when she smiled at me and told me that I'm an asshole? I don't know any of it but what I'm sure is that I might go crazy with this weird suffocation in my chest. She would choose that motherfucker in a blink of an eye. Even though I've everything, I'd never be him for Ayla.

That pathetic piece of shit snatched another person from me. Funny how everything turns to favor him. He's a monster yet he's been living the kind of life I could never afford.

I closed my eyes shut to keep everything out but then it started happening. A sudden anger bursted through my veins and not being able to take it anymore, I decided to pay a visit to her. I know very well that where Ayla might be.

Upon reaching, I get out of my car and looked around. So, this is where he's living? After killing his father, spending time in jail, becoming a cold blooded murderer, he's sure living a giant life.

In a swift motion, men in black suit came forward and pointed gun at me before I can step inside his house. I raised my brows when a familiar figure appeared. It was that boy who pointed gun at me back at Ayla's home.

"Is your Boss hiding behind a little boy?" I asked.

He gestured everyone to put their guns down and then took a step forward to me. "Nah, he's in bed with your girlfriend."

I clenched my teeth and shoved him aside. Suprisingly neither he nor his men stopped me. When I entered inside, I couldn't help but feel my heart shattering. 

Ayla was with that Bastard on the couch. She had her head resting on her shoulder while they watching some stupid sitcom. I blinked, a memory invading my mind when we used to watch movies together and she often fell asleep on my shoulders. I never appreciated how precious those moments were. I-I...never knew that I had feelings for her even before I named them.

"They look nice together, don't they? Guess, she had already moved on from you." That boy came to stand beside me and chuckled.

His words worked as fuel to my temper and that's when all the haunting memories exploded inside me. It was Axel. Everything ruined because of him. He ruined me.

Without thinking twice, I stalked to them and pulled Ayla to my side by her arms. Her eyes widened in shock as she gasped in pain but oddly I wasn't ready to accept what was happening around me. I wasn't ready to give up on her. I wasn't ready to let him snatch one more person from me.
