ENTANGLED STRINGS OF PAST

CHAPTER FORTY ONE

Aiden Williamson

"Tell me angel who you are hiding from me?"

A wave of fear washed over Hazel's face when I completed my words.

The last thing I wanted from her was to betray me, but seeing her with another man made me desperate and angry.

After I made sure Terry was doing a great job I tried to see Hazel but she wasn't with Mary as she said. I excused myself from Dmitry and started looking for Hazel.

After a few minutes, I saw her.

She was standing in the hallway.

But she wasn't alone.

Before I could walk towards her I saw him hugging her. I don't know what happened but it made me freeze in my spot.

Seeing her sneaking and talking to god knows who made me doubt myself.

I trusted her, and I still do but I couldn't ignore what I saw with my own eyes.

I thought I knew her. But I was wrong.

Trusting the wrong person was what made my father lose everything he loved.

The feeling of betrayal started running through my veins.

I wanted answers!

Now seeing the feeling of horror of being caught on Hazel's face gave me answers to all my questions.

I saw in her eyes, all the lies she said.

"Tell me, angel, I still waiting for your more lies" I repeated.

She was so close to me that I could hear her beating heart.

"I never lied to you" she countered back, going back to her façade.

"You never told me your name is Hazel Grey Evans?"

"You never asked," she said sternly.

"Now I ask you, who are you?" I demanded.

"First you tell me what your plans are for tonight?

"Why should I tell you?" "So that you can tell it your boss?"

The only thing I was praying for was not my biggest fear to come true.

My biggest and only fear is that she is working for Dmitry.

I don't know what I would do if It came out true.

"I don't work for anyone!" she said confidently.

"Then why do you want to know my plans?" I asked tilting my face to see any ounce of lie on her face.

"I want that file!" she said.

"It's been two days and you still don't know where it is" she mocked

Lie.

I know it's not the file she is after.

"Come on angel tell me the truth!" I tried to emphasize on each word.

The expression of fear washes over her face again.

I was getting relentless to know the truth but I knew my limits.

But before she could say something, Terry shouted in my earpiece, "Where the hell are you? I have got the phone but you need to distract him so that I can hack the fucking phone!"

I have to go.

I looked over her one last time and pulled her closer.

"I know I told you that I will wait for you to tell me your truth but remember angel, the words have no meaning once you lose the trust!" I whispered in her ears.
