She smiled sadly at the file in her hands. She wanted to tell her husband but what should she do. It’s already been a week she came to know about this but she just couldn’t get a strength to tell him.
“Babyy.” She got startled at her husband’s voice before immediately hiding the file under the pillows. She stood up smiling at him as he came inside and instantly hugged her.
He moaned slightly heaving his head in her crook smiling happily. “What happened Babe. Your looking tired.” He hummed before tightening his grip on her and placing kisses all over her nape.
“Oh come on Liam go fresh up. I will arrange dinner. Come on. Enough enough big buddy come on.” She exclaimed trying to pull away from the pig but he just whinned kissing her neck.
But finally she pushed him away making him pout. She chuckled pointing at the bathroom. He walked towards the bathroom sulking. She sighed grabbing the file and again hiding it in the cupboard. No matter what happens she has to tell him. It’s important.
She prepared the table after heating the food. Liam started eating the food as she was busy with the chores. His phone started ringing making him to answer it.
“Ok. Ok fine I am coming.” Amelia looked at him with raised eye brows.
“I have to go. Rose and Luna asked for me they said it’s urgent. I even heard kate crying. I need to go there.” Amelia nodded her head and Liam ran outside after kissing her forehead.
She frowned slapping her forehead remembering that she has to meet her brother today. She was about to get her bag but then she got a message from her brother’s fiance asking her to come to the place she messaged her.
Amelia wanted to know why but after reading that it’s urgent she went to the place. She knew Kelly would never message her something like this. The matter seems serious.
She went to the place and was left petrified seeing Rose. Luna. Her brother. Kelly and even Liam. She ran towards her brother after witnessing severe bruises all over his face.
“My God. What happened to your face. Who the hell did this.” She said touching her brother’s face who stared at her with sad eyes.
“Don’t touch this piece of shit Amy your hands will get dirty.” She gasped out hearing her husband’s words. Kelly was about to snap but Amelia shook her head at her.
“What is wrong with you Liam. How dare you insult my brother like this.” She said glaring at him who scoffed. Rose was crying hugging Liam while Luna was also there glaring at Amelia and her brother Harry.
“THIS BASTARD TRIED TO RAPE MY SISTER AMY. HE TRIED TO FORCE HIMSELF ON ROSE.” Amelia gasped in horror hearing her words.
She looked at her brother for confirmation and Harry instantly shook his head. “I swear on our deceased parents Amy I did no such thing. She’s lying. I swear. I am not like this Amy I swear.”
Liam was about to snap at him but stopped when Amelia said “I know brother I know you can never do such thing. I know.” She nodding her head. Even though at first she felt extremely disgusting thinking that Kate was about to get raped but again.
She trust her brother more than herself. Harry loves Kelly more than anything. He never even in his drunken state looked at other woman than to touch. It was impossible for them to believe.
“Amy are you serious. HOW COULD TAKE HIS SIDE. LOOK AT THIS. MARKS ARE ALL OVER HER BODY HOW CAN YOU SAY THIS EVEN AFTER BEING A WOMAN. YOUR SAYING THAT ROSE IS LYING HOW COULD YOU.”
Liam yelled out pushing Rose in her mother’s arms and walking closer to Amelia who shook her head “I am not saying that she’s lying. But I wouldn’t accuse my brother blindly as well. Being a woman doesn’t mean I will believe other woman’s accusation blindly. We need proofs. We need to look in this matter carefully. Rapist and Rape victim are not some kind of simple titles Liam.”
“We need to contact police. My brother will handle this matter fairly. Police will look into it and if my brother is culprit he will be punished but if not then.”
“Then what. Huh then what. My daughter will be consider as a liar. A disgrace. No. No we can’t do this. Liam ask this man. He will marry my daughter. We are religious people Amelia. I can’t let my daughter be called as a disgrace.”
Luna Rose’s mother exclaimed making Harry instantly work up. “No I wouldn’t marry this sly woman. Why don’t you people believe me. I didn’t even touch her a little. I swear to God she’s lying. Please I love Kelly no one else.”
Liam again punched him making Amelia to push Liam away from her brother who cried out. “Amy I wouldn’t marry her. I didn’t touch her I swear. She’s setting me up. I swear Kelly I only love you.” Kelly nodded her head and hugged Harry.
“Enough Liam. I wouldn’t tolerate more violence against my brother. He’s innocent till proved guilty so suck your anger up.” Liam shot her a glare before hugging her sister who was crying.
“Fine then. We will go to court and then all of this will be decided. I swear you will regret taking his side.” Liam said side hugging his sister who looked at her mother with scared eyes.
“Liam I don’t think going to court decision is right I mean people.” Liam glared at her.
“I don’t give a shit of what people think about my sister. I need justice. I will put this bastard in jail and will make him suffer. He will pay for what he did to my sister. I don’t want him to touch my sister again. So no marriage. I don’t think kate being a harrasment victim would like to marry the one who harassed her.”
Liam exclaimed tensing both Rose and Luna who looked at each other with scared eyes. Liam looked at Amelia who was looking at him with sad eyes.
“Choose Amelia. Him or Me. If you choose your brother then be ready for divorce. But if you choose me then you have to end your relation with your brother.”
His eyes were practically begging his one and only love to come to him. To choose him but no. Her brother was always more than anything to her.
“I will never leave my brother when he needs me the most. What kind of a sister will I be if i wouldn’t stand with him in this condition.” Liam chuckled sadly as he nodded his head.
“Fine then tomorrow. My lawyer will contact you. For a divorce and also for the attempt charges on your brother.”
“No Liam wait--” Harry tried stopping Liam but Amelia grabbed his wrist shaking her head.
“Fine. If your sisters accusations matters more than our 5 years relation and 3 years marriage then fine go ahead divorce me. I will sign the papers. But.”
She walked closer to Liam with her teary eyes. Liam also stared back with almost begging her with his eyes to not do this.
“Once I signed those papers. We will never be one again. Never.” Liam nodded his head before pulling Rose with him followed by Luna who avoided eye contact with the brother and sister.
Harry hugged his sister who smiled rubbing his back. He was blaming himself. But Amelia knew it wasn’t him. It was Liam’s ego. His blind trust on his step sister and his lack of respect for her and her brother.
Even though everything crumbled down that time. But the man who crushed it never thought that one day he will cry trying grab those shattered pieces only to have nothing in return. Nothing.

Clutching my chest I cried harder. How could he. How can he just end our years older relationship in just few minutes. What’s my fault. What was my fault in all of this that he’s punishing me.
I have to talk to him. This is not a right thing to do. We love each other for years. Just because of his step sister’s accusation and my brother being accused he can’t do this to me atleast.
After a proper time of convincing myself. I decided to talk to him. Dialling his number I held it near my ear. On one ring Someone picked the call and silence spread all over.
I closed my eyes letting more tears to fell down. I can hear his harsh breathing. “Liam.” I whispered making him sigh out.
“Amy.” I heard his raspy voice. He clearly sounded like he was crying and was drunk.
“Don’t do this Liam. We can handle this matter first. We don’t have to get divorce yet. Please.” I said almost begging him.
“I don’t want to do this as well Amy. Just come to me. I l-love you so much. P-Please stop standing up for him. Just come to me and leave him. P-Please.” I closed my eyes hearing his cracked tone.
“I can’t Liam. He’s my brother. Why don’t you understand this.” I heard him scoff.
“And she’s my sister Amy. I promised my father to protect her. I can’t do this to her. Your presence will always remind her of your brothers barbaric act. Just come to us and tell her that you support her. You can save us Amy.”
I wiped my tears feeling helpless. “Fine then. You fight for your sister. And I will for my brother. Because if my brother is guilty I will ask for Kate’s forgiveness sitting on my knees but I would never leave him till he proved to be guilty.”
“FINE. DO WHATEVER YOU WANT. YOU WANT TO DESTROY US THEN FINE. I DON’T KNOW YOU ANYMORE AMELIA. I DON’T. I don’t k-know you anymore.” With that he cut the call but not before I heard his loud sob.
More tears made their way to my pale cheeks as slowly my whimpers turned into loud sobs. Why Liam why can’t you wait. Why you want to end us like this.
“Amy.” I heard Harry’s voice. I wanted to wipe my tears. I didn’t want him to blame himself for my pain. But as much as tears I tried wiping away more made their way to my cheeks.
I stared at him with teary and sad eyes as another sob left from my lips. “I am sorry sis. I am sorry.” He hugged me tightly crying as well. I shook my head kissing his forehead.
“No you don’t have to. I trust you my brother. We will fight. Even if I have to sacrifice more than I already had lost. I wouldn’t back off. We will prove your innocence. I promise your sister will never leave you. Hmm you just have to be strong.”
He nodded his head wiping my tears I did the same as we again hugged each other.

Being 5 years older than Harry. Amelia promised herself to take care of her brother in his every step of life. She was only 16 and Harry 11 when their parents died. She was arranged to Liam from the day she born. Because of their parents small company she was able to take care of hers and her brothers study plus basic expenses.
Liam and Amelia had always liked each other from the childhood. They had a lot of similarities which quiet of made easier for them to fall for each other.
Liam’s father died when Liam joined the company at the age of 21. Rose was a daughter of his father from his second marriage with Luna. Both mother and daughter had been kind to Amelia and Liam all over. Liam even though never really liked Luna but he vowed to protect and give his step sister everything she wished for.
When Harry turned 18 he fell for Kelly after meeting her in the final year of his high school. They both started dating and at the age of 20 they both got engaged but someone already had eyes on Harry which resulted in the destruction of everything.
People says right. Too much Jealousy is the most vicious disease. Once a body catch it. It always ends up destroying everything including ones own self.
Weeks passed by and as per promise Liam send the divorce papers along with attempt rape charges on Harry. Harry was arrested but it didn’t shock them as they already knew it’s gonna happen.
Everything had started but somewhere in Amelia’s heart she still wanted to save her crumbling marriage because for her divorce is not a solution. In her view she and Liam should wait for the proper results but Liam clearly refused to listen to her.
Holding the divorce the papers she walked inside the house. The same house she once called as hers. She wanted to talk to him. Even if it’s for the last time. But divorce is not a joke.
She suddenly froze in her place when she heard groaning and moaning sounds. She clearly recongized that groan. But the difference was the moan wasn’t hers. Blood rushed to her ears and her heart went numb.
Soon the door of the room slammed open and a half ***** Liam walked out. He still didn’t notice her as he walked towards the hallway where she was standing.
Soon his steps halted when his eyes fell on the pale feet standing infront of him. His eyes roamed upwards and finally met with those electric grey ones. Her empty and numb gaze met his.
She looked lost. While he looked horrified. He was frozen. He didn’t expect her to catch him in an act. After few minutes of him looking at her with pure guilt and her with disappointment. They heard footsteps and finally lawyer came inside.
Without another word she brought out a pen and opened the divorce papers. Without any hesitation to Liam’s shock she signed the papers and handed them to the lawyer who had pitiful eyes.
“Babe where are -- Oh.” Girl came out and stopped only covered in a blanket. She instantly went inside after seeing another man there. Lawyer’s face scrunched in disgust. The man wasn’t divorced yet but he still. Gross.
“After finalizing the divorce give me the copy Lupas.” Lupas the lawyer nodded before muttering.
“You still have time. You can talk out.--” His words cut short with Amelia’s chuckle.
“Marriage has some limits Lupas. And once those limits have been crossed. Nothing left to talk. Because that limits are disrespect. Unfaithfulness and the end of love. And.” She turned her gaze to Liam who had teary eyes.
“Our marriage has crossed it.” With that she walked out of the house. Liam didn’t follow her as well even though his heart was screaming to run towards her. But how could he. He’s the one who knowingly crushed them.
He took the papers and signed them. After a day they had a hiring and their divorce was finalized. That time Amelia understood one thing. She has to give her brother a justice. A justice he deserves.
That was her one and last aim now. To prove that her brother was innocent.

Everything seems to just come to ruins in Amelia and Harry’s lives. All the things that was happening to them was bad and bad. Amelia’s trust on her brother increased even more after seeing his condition.
Harry’s health kept on worsening day by day. The poor guy was going into depression. If it was not for his sister and his fiance he would have hurt himself after all the pain he was going through.
Their business got destroyed. Amelia had to sell their mansion to get the money so she could fight the case. Everything becomes worst for the siblings and Amelia knew who was behind all of this.
Liam. He was doing his best to give the siblings the worst pain they could ever imagine. He wasn’t only in rage for what Harry was accused. But also mad at Amelia for leaving him and choosing her brother.
He wanted her to beg him for mercy but nothing. Amelia was way too stronger than he could ever imagine. She knew one day he will regret the things he was doing to them badly. But it will be of no use.
Harry’s mental kept on worsening. He was dropped from his university as well. His career seemed to go in ruins because of the accusations that he wasn’t even responsible for.
The mockings. Disgusting stares and knife like words of people was doing well in destroying the poor guy. He was only 21. No matter how much he try to act strong the pain was too much. He wanted to be strong for his sister and fiance but with time he was losing everything even himself.
He tried to help her sister after he bailed out but he couldn’t keep up with the rejections he got with the harsh words. How can people judge someone without even knowing the truth.
It hurts when you were accused of something you never did. It was hurting him beyond his limit. Hate was a small word to describe what he was feeling for Kate and Liam.
He knew that Liam was doing everything for his sister. But the extend he has gone to now seems to tore apart not only him but his sister too.
“Brother. Get yourself together. I promise I am here for you.” Harry shook his head crying on his sister’s shoulder clutching the ring in his hand.
His fiance. Kelly end their engagement finally believing kate after 3 trials. It’s been 5 months from the day case was going on. And now kelly had finally gave up on Harry saying that she can’t deal with all of this.
“S-She said. Maybe I d-did tried t-to. Rose I-I never.” He couldn’t contain the words to deliver further as he was beyond hurt remembering Kelly’s words.
“No no I trust you my lil Prince I know you did nothing. I know please be strong. At least for your sister. I trust you. We will prove your innocence.” He shook his head pulling away from her.
“How. Liam is making sure to make our lives extremely painful. He will destroy us. Why not you just listen to him. Like he asked you to marry him again. Be with him and I will just ask for forgiven---”
“FOR WHAT. For what you asked for forgiveness. Did you assault Rose.” Harry immediately shook his head.
“Then we will fight. We will fight till your innocence is proved. Don’t worry your sister will be with you till her last breath.” She said caressing his both cheeks wiping his tears away.
“I just want you to be happy.” Amelia shook her head caressing his head before again pulling him in her arms.
“I will be happy the day everyone will beg for your forgiveness. I will be happy when I will prove that my brother is innocent.” Harry smiled through his teary eyes feeling grateful for having a sister like her.
Suddenly their moment got intrrupted hearing a knock on the door. They had shifted in a small apartment after selling their mansion. It was a cosy small apartment but quiet fine for both siblings.
“I’ll go check it. Wipe these tears and be strong ok. Your stronger than this. Right my Prince.” He smiled nodding his head.
Amelia went to the door opening it and instantly blood drained out of her system witnessing the man standing there. The same face she used to adore so much now she despised it with her everything.
Liam chuckled at her pale face. “Aren’t you gonna invite me in.” She frowned at the man’s audacity before trying to close the door but instead he slammed it open making her stumble back a little.
He barged in with his two men following him inside. “What the hell. Get out of my house. Right now.” She seethed at him following him inside.
He finally stopped in the living room making Harry to stand up with a frown. Liam smirked as his eyes fell on the ring laying on the glass table. He shot Harry a mocking glare.
“What happened bastard. Your butterfly flew away. I heard Kelly broke the engagement with you and you know. She’s now a fiance of one of the biggest businessman of France Daniel Stroke. He’s my friend he liked her alot and finally proposed her and she accepted it. I think they gonna get marry in two or three months. How are you feeling.”
Hurt was visible in Harry’s eyes which raged Amelia up. She grabbed Liam’s arm roughly turning him around making him to face her.
“Yes. She broke the engagement. But you know we don’t care. It’s better to not have unfaithful people around us. Because only bad times tells us whose sincere and whose not.” Harry smiled lightly hearing his sister’s words.
Liam clenched his jaw before taking a step closer to her but she didn’t step back just stare at him with the same intensity and challenge.
“Your playing with fire darling. I told you didn’t I. I told you to come back to me. I told you I want you back and if you didn’t come then you will face terrible consequences. But you just don’t seem to understand huh.”
“I would rather face the consequences than to be with a trash like you. I did a mistake of being with you once I wouldn’t do that mistake again.” She snapped at him making him angrier.
Suddenly he grabbed her waist pulling her against his chest. Her hands fell on his biceps as she gave hard push on his arms but nothing. He was away stronger than her.
Harry tried helping his sister but instead Liams men held him back. Amelia gritted her teeth giving hard tugs on his biceps but instead he leaned closer to her face.
“I want to hate you so badly. But I just don’t seem to do so. I love you so damn much. I thought I can live without you but I was wrong. I can’t even sleep without you being beside me. I don’t know what to do anymore. I want you back Amelia. Just stop being stubborn and creating problems for your brother and to yourself and come back to me.”
He said tightening his grip on her waist but only got hard pushes on his arms. “Never. Let go. I said let me go. Your touch disgust me. Let go Liam.”
She raised her voice struggling in his arms while glaring at his dark gaze. His eyes twitched hearing her words. Disgust. She feels disgust from his touch now. He scoffed.
“Really. Isn’t this the same touch and man you used to love madly.” He said pulling his free hand up and caressing her cheek but she jerk her head away from him.
“Right. Used to. I used to. Not anymore. Now let go of me.” She said struggling but Liam seemed to enjoy her squirming figure in his arms after 5 months. He never thought that staying away from her for few months can become this much horrible for him.
“LIAM LET MY SISTER GO YOU FUCKER. LET HER GO.” Harry yelled at the heartless man who was just stood there staring at his Ex-wife who were busy in glaring at him and trying to push him away.
“You want to know how I felt when I came to know you harassed my sister Harry. You deserve to feel what I felt.” Saying that he slammed his ex-wife’s body on the near wall before slamming his lips on hers right away.
Tears started streaming down from Amelia’s eyes. Her struggling become intense. She started thrashing in his arms but he had no effect. She started hitting his chest continuously.
He grabbed her wrists and pinned them beside her head on the wall. She closed her eyes in shame and disgust. Her brother’s voice was echoing in the whole room.
Harry was crying yelling and thrashing in men’s hold to get away and help his sister but in vain. Men looked away from the scene not liking the way their boss was treating the woman after all they had their sister and mother too.
“PUNISH ME LIAM NOT HER. SHE’S INNOCENT. I BEG YOU. I AM NOT LYING. YOU WILL REGRET THIS LIAM. YOU WILL REGRET THIS. PLEASE STOP.” Harry screamed out still struggling.
Liam finally broke the kiss and placed his forehead on hers breathing crazily. While Amelia was crying hard. She never thought that one day this man. The same man she loved with her everything can assault her like this.
His actions tore her apart. Opening his dark orbs he stared at her face for some time before letting her body go. She fell on the floor breathing painfully.
Guilt rise up in his veins as soon as his ex-wife fell on the floor crying badly. But soon it fade away when his eyes fell on Harry who was also on his knees crying while staring at his sister.
“Tell me how is it feel. Hurts right. That’s how hurt me when I saw my sister’s torn clothes and battered figure bastard.” He punch Harry making Amelia cry out even more.
Suddenly he was again harshly turned around by a hand on his arm. And a sharp pain rose up on his cheek.
His Ex-wife for the first time Slapped him.
