Chapter 47 - Loggerheads

"I think no one in the world knows about that better than me Ms.Louisa Miller, the princess of Miller household has the power to turn everything into ashes with just a look. I know about your expertise darling" Asher said smirking

"Dare you accuse me of one more thing I will see your end" Louisa warned

"One needs to look at themselves and their surroundings before warning other's Ms.Louisa Miller" Asher smirked

"There is nothing to smirk Mr.Carter, this place is mine. One signal from me can make you vanish and you are trying to frighten me in my own place? How funny?" Louisa chuckled

"This won't be funny anymore darling," Asher said pinning Louisa between his hands near the wall

Louisa was about to say something but Asher blew air on her face and Louisa started into his eyes in reflex. 

Asher's eyes held something Louisa can't decipher. The way he is staring at her made Louisa forget everything and her stomach started forming knots

Both were lost in each other's eyes. No one made any conversation while the hearts rate accelerated

"Why do I have this strong feeling that I know him? Why are his eyes making me so vulnerable? Why is he able to control every part of me?" Louisa's mind kept thinking

Asher led his hand towards her left cheek and ruffled her cheek. "How are you really doing Lou?" there is a change in his voice and demeanor when he asked that and this didn't go unnoticed by Louisa 

"Lou? And the sudden change in your voice? What is this? Are you trying to win over me with all your sweetness?" Louisa questioned

"Everyone is right; you will never behave normally. All you want is to fight with every individual and make everyone's life tough. It is my stupidity to even think that we can settle our things like normal human beings. But I forgot the fact that I am dealing with Louisa" Asher said banging on the wall

Louisa pushed him away and walked a little far from him and started speaking, "Asher Carter, I am behaving very well with you but you are accusing me from the time you have entered the place. Tell me clearly what do you want?"

"Don't you know what I want?" Asher shouted taking long strides near to her

"No Mr.Carter, I have no idea what the hell do you want so please help me by letting me know so that I can get freedom from you and the unnecessary news" Louisa replied

"Don't try to act too innocent Louisa, I know your reality. So this kind of tricks won't have any effect on me; so it will be better if you confess the truth" Asher spoke

"Mr.Carter, if you want to say something please do that through some clear words only then I can comprehend something. I don't have the art of reading between lines," Louisa yelled with irritation as Asher kept accusing her without specifying anything

"You don't know how to read between the lines but I do think you know how to read the lines which are present, so here you go," Asher said pushing his mobile towards her on the table

Louisa picked the mobile and started reading, "Love is the cure to mend every soul and I am so elated that my Lou is blessed with such pure love after all these years. I so love this beautiful pair and am totally charged up to see how their story will unfold. They look a million bucks and I am going to stand by my best friend's side and will be her best bridesmaid" as soon as she read that she was in a state of shock

"How can Elena do like this? I didn't expect this from her" Louisa said totally surprised

"You should have taken up acting Louisa then you would have bagged every prestigious award possible," Asher smirked

"Why are you again going on that route Mr.Carter? Can't you speak anything straight?" Louisa shrieked

"I am speaking straight Ms. Miller, you are the one who is twisting all the facts. You have so conveniently planned everything and somehow morphed this picture and released it to press and now when people are speculating many things and spreading rumors you have planned and made it official. I was worried all the time yesterday thinking of how to deny it but you have used your friend Elena Davis who is a famous star in the music industry to make this news official. Such a minx you are" Asher shouted with rage

"Mr.Carter, I think you enjoy accusing me like any other. I am sparing you just because you are equally involved in the shit like me. Or else if any other people would have tried to pull this stunt with me, they would have been done by now. So it will be better if you keep your words in control before your tongue rolls them out. The more careful you will be the more happier you will be," Louisa said seriously

"Do you know anything other than troubling people and later vanishing them away from your way Louisa? If you think that you can play with me the same way you do to others then let me warn you I am not the one who obeys your orders and nod my head for everything you say" Asher warned Louisa

"Asher Carter, you are crossing your limits. I have been trying to tell you from all this time that I have no idea how this picture is published in the newspaper. I am totally stunned when I found this out in the morning. I am waiting to discuss it with your family," Louisa tried explaining

"Don't lie Louisa. We tried calling you and after a lot of trails, the Carter family can get through Millers and was able to meet you. We never received a call or any message from you people but we got to see the detectives you have assigned to know our personal information. What do you want Ms.Louisa Miller? Do you want to end the competition for you? "Why did you stoop so low like publishing a fake picture in the newspaper? Don't you have any shame left," Asher questioned

"Enough Mr.Carter, enough. I have been so patient with you and I am trying to explain to you the truth but you are already deaf with all your stupidity and you are so adamant to listen to my version. I am stupid to even think of explaining my side to someone with a fragile ego like you. I thought that we can settle this matter with talks but that is practically impossible with someone like you," Louisa spatted

"How egoistic you are Ms.Miller, I am not going to keep my mouth shut and accept whatever you do. I am going to say everything before media," saying that Asher stormed out of the secured room
