ETHAN'S POV:-

I walk inside a dark room with Andre, following me behind. A small bulb hanging on the wall, blooming its rays in the middle of the room on a person, who is perching unconsciously on a wooden chair

A wide grin forms on my face, as my eyes fall on his condition. Some people of my know are surrounding him, with a gun in their hands

As I penetrate inside the room more deep, my footsteps fell with muffled thuds, their soft impact absorbed by the silence. And due to the approaching noises, he swiftly comes in his senses, his eye lids gradually slots, locating for something

As his imploring eyes met mine, he quivered like a wild animal, and started growling "Who are you? Leave me!" I chuckle at his words "You don't know me?"

He frowned at my words, his eyes searching my face. After a mere seconds of casting, his face frowned, as he was startled when he finally recognised me "Mr Ethan Francois!!" He yelled in dismay, I smirk at his words

"Yes, it is me. Good to know that you recognised me very quickly" I answer, my words cold and derisive "Why did you bring me here? What did I do?"

His pleading words doesn't play much effect on my emotions "You did a very big mistake which will cost you to your death" my face stren and my words steering

His eyes appalled in terror, agitation washing over him "Please don't kill me, I will do everything but please don't kill me" he pleads, his whole body shaking due to horror

A satisfied grin forms on my face, seeing his state "Ok, if you are that desperate to live than you have to do one thing" his eyes glimmered at my words, a tint of hope reflecting in his eyes

"I will do everything you say just please leave me" he demands. The plan is going according to me and I'm also enjoying it a lot

I tell him what to do and exit from there, leaving him with my men. They will look after him. Of course I'm not going to kill him but what if he disclose this secret infront of people? So I have already informed my men to keep a close eye on every single move



CHARLOTTE'S POV:-

"What ??!! How can you do that??" I yell from the phone, my voice echoing in the whole room breaking the soft silence of my room

"I'm sorry, I can understand but I can't take your case, find another Lawyer for you and also don't call me again" a voice equal to a whisper approaches through the phone. And before I could respond ,the phone hung up

Ahh, shit man !! Huh, a traitarous pig. What can I expect from such devious creep. I'm so dumb to trust that shitty liar, son of a bitch

"But what now ? I thought I had found the right lawyer for my case, why god why ??!" I whimper, talking to myself

"You have me but. Why worry?" before I could curse more, a cold voice snatched my attention and I turned back to see 'Ethan' leaning against the doot, a mischievous grin stuck on his handsome face



Wait, 'handsome' ?, Don't know what's wrong with my mind. Charlotte doesn't forget he is still a scumbag

My face frown at this sight, my body motionless as if it forgot to function. What the hell is he doing at my house? "Shocked?" He smirks gliding towards me

"What are you doing here?" I shot him a glare, but he doesn't seem much bothered with it

"What happened? Your Lawyer said no to you? Huh? Aa I have said earlier, Noone will take your case except me. So, you don't have any option but to make me your lawyer"

He is coming more close to me. I step back as much as I could but only to be left in shock as there is no space of moving back and also he is now very much close to me that I can even hear his heartbeat, which is thumping faster and faster against his chest

Why the hell is he coming to close to me?Oh, so he is trying to take advantage of me? Then let me show him my skills

"Owwhh!!" He screams, his hands firmly on his dick. He breathes heavily, trying to reduce his excruciating pain "How dare you!!"

A playful grin forms on my face as I see his state. I'm feeling amazed at my stunt, he deserved it. "Cause I'm daring"

"Ahh, I will see you" he says and storms out of the room. For the first time I'm so proud of myself



ETHAN'S POV:-

I storm out of the room, my blood boiling so that even a thousand thermometers can break if it comes in contact with me right now

I dial a no. on my phone "Hello, Andre" I call my friend and inform him all the events happened right now. And before I could speak further, he burst out into laughter

"What !?? Did she really did this? Oh my god! I'm so proud of my sister-in-law, I want to thank her for this" and he started laughing like a maniac

I hurl "Shut up, you a*sh*le" hearing my comand he tries to calm down. "Ok, ok so tell me now, what should we do now? Our plans also failed" he huffs through the phone

"Don't worry, I have one more plan. Come to my office I will tell you there" I command before hanging up

🎬————————————————–

I intrude into a room, my eyes stern. A deadpan expression clinged on my face. Many famous and successful lawyers of France were sitting on the chairs, specially arranged for them. A tint of perplexity showing on their faces

As soon as I enter inside the room, everyone stands up showing respect towards me, as I'm the most respected lawyer of the whole of France

"Mr.Ethan Francois, why had you called all of us here? What's the matter?" One of the lawyers asks, and others also shoot a look of amusement towards me

A small smile draws on my face hearing his question, "Well, it's a very important topic that I had called you all for" I remarked, and straightened my posture, my jaws clenched and with an ascetic face I evoked

"Guys, I know everyone are furious to know the reason behind me calling you all here today. The reason isn't related to our social life nor is it related to any case, actually it's related to my love life" I state, making everyone present there stunned

Love life? The only words questioning in the air. Everyone gives each other a look at the amusement and looks back at me for any comments

I take a deep sigh before I express "So, you all must have heard about 'Charlotte Carter' the famous singer, it's about her" I state and again they get confused at my comment

"I know you all are shocked, but just keep one thing clear in your mind that if she ever seeks you to be her lawyer, don't agree to it" I say in a cold tone, my eyes stern and my jaws clenched

"What if we don't do?" A lawyer who looks like a big large burned potato of a failed experiment exclaims with a smirk withdrawing on his face which looks like a moon's twin, or even the moon will get ashamed of his beauty

In one fell swoop, I yank out a gun from the pocket and shoot him on his leg. He shrieked in agony, his screams echoing in the room filling every corner of fear

Other lawyers present there, frowned. Their eyes widened as fear gripped their heart, freezing them in their place. Agitation boiling inside their blood

One of the lawyers murmured "Please leave me, I will do everything you say. But please don't kill me. I ... I will not take her case, I don't know her, please let me go" he begged

Discerning his statement, other lawyers also commenced, asserting that they will not tackle the case. Marking their horror, a relief wash overs my face and I smirk, signing my men to leave them

"Andre!" I call out, "take care of this fatty, and I hope you know what to do after" I grin, he smirks and nods in acknowledgement



CHARLOTTE'S POV:-

"Charley, No one is agreeing to take our case and some even hanged the call at the mension of your name, I don't know what's happening" Lia spoke with a hint of perplexment

"Ahh,only for this case I have shifted to Paris and now all my concerts and albums will be held in Paris only

The main thing I'm here is for this case, I really wanna know everything about the past of my family and right now I don't need anyone, I just need a trusted lawyer who can study my case without judging me cause of my family secrets" I whispered sorrowfully, my voice cracked with emotion

Lia embraced me into a warm hug, consoling me." Look Charley, I know you are anguished but try to understand, you have to stay strong. Look what I'm going to say now may upset you but Ethan is the last option left and also he knows us plus he is a very respected lawyer of France"

I sighed from the heart and confessed sorrowfully "Ok, let's talk to him then" my voice broke and somber

Lia jumped in excitement, happiness overloading on her mind "yayy, you finally agreed, thankuu" she exclaimed, clinging to me. I chuckle seeing her childish behaviour but I'm happy to see her smiling face

I dial a no. on my phone "Hello? I wanna talk to you" I say firmly "Yes, say" a stern voice comes through the phone "I want to talk to you in person" I demand

"Why? Is the work can only be done in person not on phone, huh??" He says in a sarcastic way. Ah, why is he like this, if he was not beneficial to me I would have grounded him 6-feet down inside the earth by now

"No, it's nothing like that I just-" I try to calm the pressure boiling in my veins but before I could complete he again speaks in a mocking way "Oh c'mon just say it, just say you are having desire to meet me" he mocks

"Its nothing like that understand?" I growl "Oh, really? Then tell me what happened? Why did you call me?" Ahh, why he is like this !! I will for sure gonna kill him some day

"Fine, I called you because I wanted you to become my lawyer and study my case" I blurted out, in one go "And what if I don't agree?" Whyyy??God! Why?? I just can't tolerate him anymore, he is my last option and if he will also do this then maybe I have to give up on it

I was zoned out in my mindful meanderings just when he broke the silence, exclaiming "Ok, I will take your case but there is one condition" I divert my whole attention to his words as if my whole life relies on it

"And what is it?" I eagerly demand, not wanting to waste even a single second of it. "You will have to go with me every where I will take you without any question" he spoke in a stern tone, I froze at a place my mind racing with useless thoughts, as his words where showing different types of meaning

Noticing my struggle, he chuckled "Don't worry, my intentions are not wrong, I will take you with me only for investigation but first I want your reassurance" he cleared, a relieve washed over my face as I heard his words

Maybe we had some misconstrued in the past but I trust him "Okay, I trust you" I sigh "That's good to hear Ms. Violet" he chuckles, I huff "Ok, so we will be meeting tomorrow at your office, bye Mr. Giraffe" I exert more pressure on the last words, a mischievous grin forms on my face

"Wait what-" before he speaks, I hung up the call, haha, I'm Charlotte Carter, how dare he mess up with me , anyways I'm excited for tomorrow, let's see what happens

They thought they had signed a contract to the life of their separation, but destiny had already planned their paths crossed
