Chapter 49: Chapter 49
Vincent
I was scared. Maybe I was doing right or maybe I was doing wrong. Who knows? Maybe I Will lose and then I will not be able to fulfil my promise to Ashley. I will not be able to return ever then.
I can’t lose this for her. I have to make this right, anyhow.
I went out of her house by taking the paper. We didn’t smile at each other, we didn’t kiss, hug or speak anything. We knew only one word would break us and stop us from taking this decision.
But this was the right thing and I knew I had to do it, no matter how hard it seemed right now. I knew it would bear fruits in the end.
I closed the door without turning around. I can’t see her. I know the faith she has on me. That I will return and love her right. But I didn’t have any choice and even after being the biggest mafia, I guess they can still control me.
But only if I am not prepared enough. I know what to do now.
I called my men. “Get ready, we are gonna attack”

I was broken when she walked out of the ward.
A lie?
Was this all a lie?
I… I was more sad by the fact that I literally believed her again. I left Ashley and I… I-I trusted her. She was the one to send me her pictures. The one who showed me that she was cheating on me.
She was the one to ruin it all. She ruined us. She ruined every single fucking thing!
I was breathing quite loudly. I couldn’t get enough oxygen. You know the feeling when you just hate yourself for making the same mistakes over and over again? Well that was exactly my condition!
How can I trust her? She has cheated on me before!
But it did happen and I couldn’t believe it. Everything was open and now for every single second that I had with her, I have a different perspective.
I thought I saw love in her eyes everytime and it was true! But she didn’t love me, she loved the fame, she loved the money! That was all she ever saw in me! She knew I was the way to get my company down and she knew that I would fall for her!
I am literally so ashamed. She distracted me completely. I have no idea what my company is doing because I was busy thinking about our future. I had left my company with my counterparts and juniors. That’s what I did. What if they were also in her plan?
What if they took some decisions to ruin our company?
I kept a hand on my eyes and tried to stop the tears. How can I be so weak and cry? I shouldn’t cry. Not because of someone like her.
I heard the ward door open and I made sure to wipe all my tears.
“How are you feeling?” the nurse asked me.
“Fine” I replied.
“Have you been crying?” she asked me. I sighed. Why do these people know that this easily?
“It’s fine,” I replied. she nodded.
“I don’t know, what’s up, but the doctors and the nurses are here to help”
I nodded and laughed a little. The doctors and nurses and here to help… will they heal a broken heart? Can they heal it, repair it? They can’t. She doesn’t have any idea that her words make no sense to the heartbroken.
“Please take your medicines, I will leave now”
I nodded and took my medications. I took a deep breath. “At least she is out of my life now. No more fake love”
I looked around the ward. It felt vacant and suddenly I realised.
I have no one now.
Other than mom, she is unaware of the fact that I am here because she is a heart patient and she would have been shocked to hear that I was shot.
No one?
Am I so bad?
I closed my eyes. I should not think like this, everything will be fine soon, I know. How can it not be? After all, I am not that bad, I know.
I made some wrong choices but that doesn’t mean anything.
Ashley.
I know I made a mistake.
a huge mistake, to be honest but I know. I know you loved me and you still do, don’t you? I know you still feel something for me. I saw it that day in the hotel. I know you feel the same for me.
Your love is like a dying flower, Ashley. It has been so much time, and if it gets no water, it may die.
But I will give it all the water and all the nutrition and grow it again.
You love me and you belong with me.
I will win you back, Ashley.
I love you.
