Chereads / OrdersOf Fate / Chapter 18 - Chapter 17

Chapter 18 - Chapter 17

It was 10:30am when William got out of Franklin's room.

His body was full of sweats. His mind was rotating with full of questions. His first difficult question was, 'How am I supposed to tell this to Paigne?'

He decided to go to his home. He went to parking lot and asked his car driver, John to drop him at his house.

But he didn't know that John had a call from Franklin who was in the thirteenth floor. Also Franklin had called his son Milan and Henry through his phone.

William was perplexed. Actually the things told by Franklin to him when he was in Franklin's cabin were true. That made William's head spin.

When he was travelling on a long road which would be nearly hundred feet in length, his driver John came to a halt.

"Why did you stop?" William asked.

John didn't respond at all. William got frightened and yelled, "Tell me!"

Interestingly the road was lonely and William noticed a white Mercedes coming behind them.

John, the driver took out a piece of paper and threw at William's face.

William was shocked to his driver's activity and within a moment John went out of the car.

William yelled but t went in vain. He noticed the white Mercedes coming behind him hastily. He bent down to take the paper which was thrown by John and read it. It was,

"Time to complete your fate's order"

William barely understood it. He got out of his car and shocked to see that the white Mercedes had reached near to his car.

William froze on seeing the persons who came out of the car. They were Milan and Henry.

"Hey what do you want?" William yelled. He thought of driving the car, but he was rooted to his position on seeing the thing which was taken out by Milan. It was a gun. William remembered the gun. It was the same gun which belonged to Franklin. Somehow Franklin had given it to Henry and Milan.

"What you both gonna do?"He yelled once again.

Milan gave a smile and said, "You should not have poked your nose in our issues."

"Please don't do anything" William pleaded.

Henry took several steps forward and slapped William on his cheeks. William lost his balance and fell on the road. Henry said, "How dare you involve in our matters? Also you think that I am a criminal?"

William grew angry and punched Henry on his groin and Henry shouted in pain. Milan stepped forward and placed his gun on William's forehead.

William's common sense told him that he could not escape from his death. Milan said, "You're a coward William. It's your time to complete your fate's order."

"Please leave me!" William yelled.

"I'm sorry, Paigne. Rest In Peace, William." Milan said and he pressed the trigger of the gun and a bullet made a hole in William's forehead.

Paigne was sitting in the porch with her son, Kasper Dravid who returned from his school. Paigne looked glum as her husband had not returned still. She was so worried on the acts of her dad, Franklin. She couldn't believe that her father had a gun and his plan of killing a person.

Kasper had not seen his mother looking so dull. He knew that something was wrong on seeing the scenes of last night. He decided to enquire about it to his mother. He squeezed her hand and said, "Mom I have a doubt"

Paigne who was deep in her thoughts came to reality on hearing Kasper and sad, "What's it Kasper?"

Kasper said" What is wrong with you and dad?"

Paigne was taken up on hearing her son. She suspected that Kasper had known all the truth.

"Nothing is wrong with us Kasper."

"Then why did you and dad were so sad yesterday?" Kasper said. His question seemed obvious.

Before Paigne could react, a jeep arrived in front of their main gate.

Paigne was perplexed on seeing a police man emerging from it. The policeman looked fit and had grey hair. Paigne went closer to him and asked "What do you want sir?"

"Are you Paigne?" the policeman asked.

"Yeah. I'm Paigne." Paigne replied.

"My name is Xavier. I've come here to tell you important news."

"What's that?" Paigne asked.

Kasper got closer to them to hear what they were talking.

Xavier said, "I'm sorry to tell this. Your husband, William Dravid had committed suicide."
