Sarah's POV

" I would like to have an espresso." Adith said to the waiter.

" Make it two." I said to him.

" What's wrong, girl? What's wrong with you?" He asked me.

" I am messed." I said to him.

" Alright. What did you do now?" He asked.

" I got into a terrible fight with someone I shouldn't have." I said and he sighed.

" You know you are a short tempered girl, don't you?" He asked me and I nodded.

" Yes, I do know about that." I said to him.

" This is why you keep messing up with wrong persons one by one." He said sipping his coffee.

" Yeah, I know that too." I said.

" Now what do you want to do?" He asked me.

" I am in a trouble." I said.

" As for?" He asked me.

" I need some money." I said.

" How much?" He asked me.

" Umm.. 15 millions?" I said to him and he choked on his coffee hard. He kept coughing vigorously. I patted his back.

" Easy...easy...easy.." I said. " Why are you rushing?!" I asked him.

" From..." He coughed again.

" Take your time." I said. He glared at me.

" From which angle do you think 15 millions is 'some'?" He asked me. I sighed.

" If I would have said like 15 millions in a breath you would have gotten a heart attack." I said to him and he sighed deeply.

" Yeah, true. But why do you need 15 millions in the first place?!" He asked me.

" I need 15 millions because I have to save my grandma's house. His ungrateful stupid son has sold that." I said.

" How can he sell the house without the legal papers?" He asked me.

" I don't know. But grandma has the papers as well. That paper is not going to help you. Because the new owner of the house is a person who can destroy us in a blink and we can't even say anything. I don't want to mess up with him more than I have already done." I said to him.

I really didn't have any idea that the jerk is supposed to be that powerful person. I wasn't still scared of him. I was just scared that he will snatch the house from Grandma. He can do that though. He can definitely do that using his power and connection. We have to stop him. I don't know how to handle that.

" Who is that?" He asked me.

" You might know him. His name is Caleb Fitzston." I said and he looked at me weirdly.

" Stay away from him, Sarah. He is a bad news for you." He said and I looked at him weirdly. How does he know that!!!

" Why are you saying that?" I asked him.

" I don't know why but I think like that. He is not a good sign for you." He said.

" Suddenly why do you feel something like that?" I asked him.

" Just friendly saying that. No offense." He said and I nodded. "With his money he can lure any girl around. I just don't want you to be that girl." He said. I nodded again.

I also don't want to be some rich guy's mistress just like my mother. I want to have a normal and peaceful life with a person who will love and cherish me. I just want a man who has a beautiful heart. He no need to be good looking or handsome neither he needs to have billions. I can live my life contently if only he stays with me forever, keeps loving me and supporting me. I can't handle it if he tries to betray me. I only want someone who will be mine and remain mine no matter what life makes us to face. It's enough to be happy if a couple be together forever with love and respect toward each other. Money doesn't even matter. Cause nothing is constant but a pure heart. People think whatever they have is going to be with them forever but they forgets it is decided by God.

" I will not let anyone lure me. You can be sure of that. I am not an easy girl. You can understand that." I said and he chuckled.

" Yes. I know that clearly." He said.

" I need to meet some people. Let's see who can help me to save grandma's house." I said to him.

" Can I come with you?" He asked me.

" You can if you want to." I said.

" Let's go then." He said.

" Don't you have works to do?" I asked him.

" Doing the most important one." He said. I chuckled then rolled my eyes.

" Funny. Are you trying to hit on me?" I asked him.

" No. I am helping you. Not everyone do things for hitting on a girl." He said.

" I thought you were flirting with me." I said to him.

" Yeah, that's also true." He said. I punched on his arm and he laughed.

We went to every possible person who I thought can help me but none of them told me something hopeful. No one could help me in this. 15 millions are not an easy thing to collect that I came to know now. I realized where I have brought myself. I was in a devastated situation. I needed 15 millions by tomorrow morning. Where will I get 15 millions that early!?? I don't know what to do.

" I don't think anyone can lend you 15 millions, Sarah. It's a high amount of money. You can't borrow that from someone without a trust issue." Adith said and I nodded.

I kept thinking about the person who can help me in this but I found none. I suddenly realized that Nikki can help me but I didn't want to ask money from her. And there if I don't manage money by tomorrow the jerk will destroy grandma's house and drag her out of there. I needed to do it for Grandma. I am going to return back the money to her.

" I will go home. Let's see if I can do something." I said.

" You can ask it from your sister. But I think you don't want to ask it from her." He said. I nodded. He left me at home and I went inside.

" Where is Nikki?" I asked one of the the maid.

" In the garden." She said.

I ran to the garden and found Nikki sitting with her violin playing randomly. I sat across her and she kept it down.

" What's wrong?" She asked me.

" I need you to lend me 15 millions." I said and she nodded then started to play the violin again.

" I will inform Tony to arrange that. You don't have to return it. It's all yours." She said and kept playing the violin.

" I don't want your pity. I will return it back." I said to her and walked out of there.
