True to her fears her pointed heels titled, and Mia's body immediately lost balance, the minute her body came into the contact with the rock-hard thing, she closed her eyes.
"I pushed her to get ready. I should talk to her and make her understand the seriousness of the situation. She needs to know that I am not doing this to play with her or use her. Only then she will cooperate with us instead of picking a fight for every little thing" Victor leaned back in his chair.
"We need to do that really fast, we literally have no time" Travis stated fact.
"If she obliges without creating a drama, then it's well and good. If she tries playing with me, she will know what I am" Victor was serious.
"So did you find anything related to her?" Travis questioned.
"Can you believe, there are no past records about her? All the information we are able to find was from the time she turned 20, none of our sources was able to find any information about her past. The proofs she submitted for work include only a few details. Her marriage registration certificate has the signature of an old man, information found out that he is her grandfather. But there were no proofs, the proof for her driving license too didn't give any clue. I am having various doubts in my mind. Are Hazel and Mia related in any way? Why is everything about her past was such a secret?" Victor tapped on his knee while speaking.
"Her husband, what happened to him? How did he end up in such state?" Travis questioned.
"Sources found that some accident took place that made him end up in bed and his obsessive drinking habit deteriorated his health, but I was unable to believe in anything. All this looks unbaked. Mia is a young and beautiful girl, why she had to end up marrying such an old person who has been to prison more than 10 times, and why the hell is she fighting for him? There are many layers to this story. I can't understand anything" Victor went on speaking.
"Something is missing, something is definitely there, Mia is a mystery. Her house owner is a creep who is trying to get into her bed, her husband is psychotic who had issues, she is working nights and days to save him, her mobile or her house has none of her pictures or past memories. Her certificates are fake. All this says something big Travis, we need to find that out" Victor was serious.
"Victor, Mia is not our concern, Hazel is our concern. We need to find reasons for Hazel's sudden exit. We need to know whether she is safe or not. We need to concentrate on her," Travis explained.
"Yeah, I do know that and we have put almost all of our people on that, no one should have any idea about that. I just wish all issues get sorted. Mia has the toughest job to make Hazel's parents believe that she is their daughter. If they get the slightest idea that the one who I am marrying is not their daughter we should be ready to face massive troubles. They entrusted their daughter with us" Victor felt a bit tensed thinking about the consequences.
"Don't worry, we will make her understand this, and we will train her" Travis assured.
"Why do I have this feeling that Mia and Hazel are related? Why can't I get any information about this girl? Why doesn't her house have anything related to her?" Victor kept thinking about Mia.
"Sir, Madam is refusing to wear this" two women walked towards them carrying a dress.
"Looks like your problems have started" Travis chuckled looking at Victor.
"I will see that. You may leave" Victor ordered them taking the dress to his hands.
"All the best buddy" Travis laughed hard when Victor started walking towards Mia's room.
"What is the matter with you? Did you take an oath to say No to each and everything? Why can't you wear this dress? Why can't you just follow a simple order without creating a drama?" Victor stopped yelling glancing at Mia who is standing opposite him, words got stuck in his throat and sweat beds formed on his forehead.
"This is more than what a human can learn in a day, if you would be in my position you would be unable to learn even a half. You should be at least happy that I am trying" Mia answered back trying to pull her hand from his grip.
"Do I look like a fool to you Mia? Just because I am being all normal to you that doesn't mean you can benefit from that. Remember every single mistake from you here will reflect on your husband's treatment there" Victor's words immediately brought tears to Mia's eyes.
Feeling the hot breath of her nape, Mia slowly opened her eyes only to meet the reddish eyes of Victor who is staring at her with unexplainable emotions.
Victor who walked back into the room fuming caught Mia at the exact minute the floor was about to kiss her. Looking into her bulged eyes he felt various emotions inside him.
Victor slowly lifted Mia and made her stand straight. He observed how her chest heaved with every breath.
"I am Mia," Mia whispered to Victor thinking that he is looking at her with red eyes mistaking her for Hazel.
"Yeah.." Victor fluttered.
"What was that?" Victor questioned.
"I am trying to walk holding my head up and my heels twisted, I always wore plain shoes," Mia answered.
"Remember the past Mia, you are no longer that. You are Hazel; instill that in your brain. Your talk, your walk, your habits, even your thinking should be like Hazel. Get ready for being her from inside only then you can do things right" Victor ordered.
"What will be the reason for living when I become someone else?" Mia muttered under her breath.
"What?" Victor questioned unable to hear Mia clearly.
Mia just shrugged.
"Go and start the practice again, no mistakes need to be rolled again" commanding Mia, Victor walked towards the couch placed in the room and took a seat.
Mia who was already comfortable with the dress and heels felt a million times more uncomfortable when his eyes didn't leave her. Though she tried concentrating on her walk his eyes made her quiver and she tripped down a few more times.
