- Author's POV
- Amelia was reading a book when her phone started ringing.
- Amelia put down her book and picked up her phone.
- She saw it was an unknown number.
- Amelia picked up the call and the person from the other side spoke up," Is this Amelia William?"
- "Yes. It's me" Amelia said.
- "Ma'am I am talking from King Corporation. Your CV has been selected for the interview. The interview is tomorrow at 9 A.M." The person said.
- Amelia's eyes got watery in happiness.
- "Thank you. Thank you so much" Amelia said gratefully.
- "My pleasure ma'am. Be here tomorrow in time. Have a good day" The person said and disconnected the call.
- Amelia thanked God then came out from her room.
- She saw her parents were sitting in the living room.
- "Mom, Dad King Corporation has selected me for the interview," Amelia said to them happily.
- Hearing this Amelia's dad's eyes widened. He got lost in some thought.
- "Dad, are you okay?" Amelia asked him.
- "Yes, dear. And congratulations honey" Her dad said and smiled but this time his smile didn't reach his eyes.
- "Thank you, dad. Dad, I am going for shopping. I need to buy a formal dress for the interview" Amelia said and they nodded at her.
- Amelia took her bag then left from there.
- "I think, we should stop her Matt. I am having a bad feeling about it" Jenny said to her husband.
- "No honey. Don't stop her or tell her about the accident. Let her do this" Matthew said to his wife.
- Jenny nodded at her husband but in her heart, she was still against of it.
- At shopping mall
- Amelia entered the shopping mall and chose a white decent dress.
- She paid for the dress and was about to leave the mall when she bumped into a person.
- "I am sorry. Are you okay?" Amelia asked the girl.
- The girl looked at Amelia and spoke up," Amy"
- "Sam! How are you?" Amelia asked her. Amelia and Samaria were college friends.
- "I am okay, Amy. How are you?" Samaria asked her.
- "I am fine," Amelia said and smiled at her.
- "So, how is life going on?" Sam asked her.
- "Not bad. What about you?" Amelia asked her.
- "Oh, so busy. Being a doctor is not an easy thing. Anyway, what you are doing tonight? Are you free?" Sam asked her.
- "Actually, I have an interview tomorrow. But I am free. Why are you asking about it?" Amelia asked her.
- "Today is my birthday. I am celebrating it in a club. Will you come please?" Samaria asked her.
- "Happy Birthday Sam. But I do not think I can come" Amelia said to her.
- "Please, Amy, come. It will be fun. I have invited our all friends. We will meet after a long time" Samaria said to her.
- "Sam, you know I do not like clubs. And my parents will never give me permission for it" Amelia said to her.
- "I know you do not like clubs because you are not comfortable around strangers. But Amy, the club is not a random club. It is a VIP club. And dad already booked the club for tonight. You do not need to feel uncomfortable about it" Samaria said to her.
- "Okay then. I will ask my parents if they allow me I will come otherwise I will not" Amelia said to her.
- "Okay," Samaria said to her.
- Amelia smiled and left the shop and stood near the road for a taxi.
- "Taxi" Amelia showed her hand to stop a taxi and when a taxi stopped, Amelia got inside.
- "Where to ma'am?" The taxi driver asked.
- Amelia said to him the address politely.
- The taxi driver nodded at her then started the taxi.
- Amelia took out a note and started reading for the interview.
- After some time the taxi stopped making a weird sound.
- Amelia thought they had reached her home but when she looked outside she saw the taxi was in the middle of her journey.
- "What happened? Why did you stop the taxi?" Amelia asked him.
- "Give me one minute ma'am," The taxi driver said and got down to check his taxi.
- When the taxi driver opened the front part he saw something was burnt.
- "Ma'am, I think you should take another taxi. It will take time to fix the problem" The taxi driver said to her.
- Amelia got down and paid him then started walking as there was no taxi around.
- Amelia was walking carefully as the road was muddy but suddenly a very expensive car passed her and mud and dirty water splashed on her dress.
- Amelia got shocked.
- "You blind fool" Amelia shouted and picked up a stone and threw it towards the car.
- The stone hit the car's glass. The man stopped his car at once. He looked at his glass and saw it was broken. He fisted his hand in anger as it was his most favorite car also it was so expensive.
- When Amelia saw the car stooped, she walked towards the car with anger.
- The man got down from his car and his eyes widened when he saw a breathtakingly gorgeous girl was coming towards him angrily. But soon he controlled himself thinking about his beloved car.
- When Amelia came near the man then she shouted angrily," You blind driver. Don't you have eyes? Who gave you a driving license ha? Which fool gave you?"
- "Mind your tongue girl. It was you who was walking beside my car. You should have kept distance instead of walking middle of the road like a fool" The man said to her.
- Amelia gritted her teeth angrily and spoke up, "Fool? You are the fool here. And you fool, blind man it was you who made my dress dirty. Who gave you a driving license? Ha, who gave you when you don't know how to drive? Which fool gave you? Just see what you have done to my dress" Amelia again shouted at him.
- "I think I have added a little more color on your dress," The man said casually like it didn't matter to him and Amelia got angrier.
- "Do you think it is a joke?" Amelia asked him angrily.
- "It is my pleasure if you find it is a joke sweetheart but I don't have freaking time for creating useless jokes," The man said to her.
- Amelia felt her anger reached on nine clouds.
- She looked at his expensive blue coat and hugged him suddenly.
- The man was taken back. His heart started beating faster. His hands were down.
- He closed his eyes and felt peace. He was about to wrap his arms around her unwillingly when Amelia moved back and gave him an evil smirk.
- The man looked at her with confusion.
- "Your coat is now looking nice" Amelia whispered.
- He looked down at his coat and saw it was covered with mud. Then he realized why she hugged him.
- He looked up but Amelia wasn't there anymore.
- He looked around and saw her getting inside a taxi. Before he could call her the taxi drove away.
- He made an annoying face and removed his coat and he wore the extra coat he had kept in his car.
- Then he put the muddy coat in a bag.
- As much as he wanted to follow her but he could not do it. He had an important meeting to attend.
- "Next time I will not leave you, wild cat," He said and started his car towards his office.

- "What is it?" Ace asked him.
- "Sir, I need your signature on this file," His manager said and put the file in front of Ace.
- Ace took the file and roamed his sharp eyes all over it. When he was satisfied, he put his signature on it.
- "Thank you, sir," His manager said and took the file.
- "Is everything ready for the interview?" Ace asked him.
- "Yes sir. Tomorrow, we will take the interview. Sir, do you want to take the interview or do you want me to take it?" His manager asked him.

- "What to do when mom kept blackmailing me?" Nick said and both of them got smiling.
- Soon they got inside the car.
- "Well your mom ordered me to take you to King Mansion, not in your penthouse," Ace said and started his car.
- Nick smiled hearing this.
- "I know. I already promised mom that I will live in the king's mansion only" Nick said and Ace smiled.
- Nick called Mrs. King mom but he never called Mr. King as father. Because he hated the word father.
- "It is time to take over the things which are rightfully mine" Nick whispered.
- "Indeed you are right. Time to show you are no longer the weak kid" Ace said and Nick nodded.
- After some time they reached the King Mansion.
- Ace parked his car then they both came out.
- Mrs. King hugged Nick. She was so happy because her son came back home.
