His Ruthless Desire novel Chapter 73

Alia

Taimur came back after two hours from the prison, he looked like he had aged ten years in those two hours. His eyes were red, hairs were all around the place and he looked so tired and lost, she ran to him as soon as he entered.

"What happened? What did he say?", She asked.

"We are leaving, get ready", He replied.

"Taimur I asked you something", She said looking at him.

"For God's sake, Alia, for once just don't ask me anything and get ready, I will tell you everything when we get back to New York", He yelled.

Alia was looking at him in disbelief, this was the first time he had shouted at her like this. She tried to push back the tears accommodating in her eyes. Taimur had noticed the tears in her eyes and his expression changed suddenly. He walked towards her but Alia took a step backward.

"Don't you even dare to touch me", She hissed.

"Babes, I am sorry", He said as he raised his hand to touch her, Alia slapped his hand away.

" Please Taimur, don't test me now", She said and shut herself in the bathroom.

She knew he was distressed, was worried about his daughter but he didn't have any right to treat her like this. She already had too much on her plate. She was going through enough, the fact that he had a daughter with another woman, though it was before she came in his life still it hurt her.

The revelation that he still loved that woman, and that he still wanted her, though he didn't tell Alia she was not a fool, she knew him more than he knew himself. And she could see how much he loved and wanted Eva, and it hurt, it hurt like hell.

After she got dressed she detangled her hair and dried it with the help of hairdryer, she tied them in the bun, they were too long to leave them open, she will make sure to get a haircut when she was back in Azmaayir, Taimur never let her cut her hair short, he had always told her how much he loved them long and the fool she was, she had never cut them into some short or fancy haircut.

She tossed her stuff back in the bag, retrieved her handbag and looked at him to tell him that she was ready to leave. He didn't say a word just put on his shoes and they exited the room by pulling their bags with them.

They both were silent on the plane, Alia sat at the farthest seat from him, she knew if she would be close to him there always will be a chance he would kiss his way to forgiveness. Though he can easily walk to her and do that even now, the cold demeanor she had put on was enough to keep him at a distance.

When they landed in New York, Riyadh was there to receive them, he looked at Alia to get any hint that what might have happened, she just raised her shoulders to tell him she didn't have a clue, he told Riyadh to tell the driver to take them to the rented apartment.

When they reached there, Eva and her husband, were already present, and the three FBI officers were also present. Thankfully Taimur didn't react to the presence of Eva's husband. All the people present in the room were nervous and were looking at Taimur anxiously, who was sitting on the couch silent as dead and when he spoke his voice was devoid of any emotions.
