With Love, xxxx. by Varshitha Kancharla (top e book reader TXT) 📕

After resigning to her job, Kathleen decided to become an author. She skimmed all her previous writings and wanted to thank the stranger for made her realize her dream. Nina encouraged her a lot. Kathleen  always wanted to write an article about social issues. She spent a lot of time in framing the story. Whenever Kathleen’s mother called she covered up with a story of trying to get a job.

On the other hand, Ryan was expanding his weapons and all other businesses all over the world. He kept killing everyone who was trying to stop him, mercilessly. He was becoming more powerful day by day. He had everything with him. Money, fame, power except the woman he adores. It’s the only thing lacking in his dark life. Most of the times, he thought to take her along with him to his mansion or to any other place even if she rejects. But he kept controlling his thoughts and feelings. When he heard the news about her, focusing on her writing, he felt happy as she was trying to fulfil her dreams.

Kathleen finished her first book in nearly two months addressing all the social issues, overcoming depression, lives of the people, differences in the society and named the book as “The power within us.” 

She sent the story to many publishing houses but got no response. She was getting disappointed as nothing was going accordingly. But she didn’t give up. Finally, she got a call from a publishing house asking her to meet them. As soon as she read the mail, her heart leaped up. Her heart throbbed with happiness. The night she didn’t sleep, even Nina too. They kept talking like it’s the last day. Nina was imagining what their lives would be, how they would lead their lives after Kathleen become a famous author. Of course she will, after all she treats Kathleen as her sister and Kathleen feels the same. 

Just like the surroundings brightened with the crack of the dawn, Kathleen’s face too lit up when she was getting ready to go there. Her eyes sparkled more than usual when they gleamed hope and happiness. Nina too got ready to go to her office. 

“Nina I am going to the publishing house.” Kathleen shouted while walking out of the house. 

“Wait! I am starting to office. I’ll drop.” 

Kathleen stopped stepping out when she heard her. Then they both started in Nina's car. After an hour drive, Nina halted the car at the publishing house. Kathleen got out of the car and Nina left.

Kathleen asked the receptionist about her meet and she requested her to wait for few minutes. She sat on the chair and kept waiting. After few minutes of waiting, they called her in. Following an hour conversation they asked her to wait again. The members of the panel, discussed about the pros and cons, and they finally rejected it telling it might not attract the readers and many reasons. 
When she heard that, she felt blue. She felt like everything she had planned and dreamt was shattered. She stepped out of the building and literally burst into tears. 

Ryan, who knew she was going there, was waiting outside of the publishing house to see her elated face. Rather than the happy face, he saw her sadness. He saw her walking while bending her down and wiping her tears. 

Looking at her, his jaw was clenched in anger. Rage gripped him and he balled his fist. He took out his gun and walked to the building. When he went near, his walk was interrupted by Neil. 

“Move aside.” Ryan shouted. 

"Ryan! What are you doing?” Neil asked with a confused face. 

Neil, after finishing his work that was assigned by Ryan, thought to see him so he reached the place as he knew where Ryan would be there. But he felt really confused when he saw him fuming. 

“I saw her crying when she came out of this building. They should die. Everyone who is inside, must die.” Ryan shouted. 

Neil’s eyes widened listening to him. He then said “Ryan! I’ll find out. You just calm down.” 

Ryan couldn’t stop fuming. He was neither listening nor seeing anything. The only thing that has been revolving in his head was her cry. It’s making him infuriating. Neil took Ryan’s gun in his hand and tucked it in his belt. 

“Ryan! Calm down. If I find out, anything wrong happened, we will kill them. Kill each and everyone and burn the building to the ground. Okay?” Neil asked looking into his eyes. 

Ryan nodded listening to him. Ryan stood out and started smoking while Neil went in. He saw a blondie at the entrance who was guiding everyone the way. He got the information from her using his charms. Neil came out and told everything to Ryan. 

“Rejected the book? Let’s kill them, Neil.” Ryan shouted. 

“Ryan! Come on, man! It’s quite common. They rejected a lot of books. Not only hers.” 

“I don’t give a fucking shit about anyone except her.” 
Neil let out a sigh and dragged Ryan to the car along with him. 

“Ryan! If you kill all of them, everyone will get a doubt. Mainly, Kathleen. If the people around her or the people whom she meet dies, definitely she’ll get a doubt. We already killed her classmates. And apart from that, if anyone deep dig, Kathleen’s name would come out. It’s not the thing you want.” 

Ryan kicked the car frustratingly and put his hands on the back of his head. 

“Ryan! We must leave.” 

Saying that, he opened the car door. He convinced Ryan to got in. After few minutes, they reached their mansion. 

Kathleen was scared about her future and felt void. She struggled a lot to finish the book and they treated it as a unworthy thing. She felt she did a wrong thing and took a wrong step in her life. She regretted resigning to her job and lying to her parents. With all these thoughts she reached the room and slept.

It’s been an hour since Ryan and Neil  reached the mansion still Ryan was angry. Neil had been convincing and making him calm down. 

Ryan shut his eyes and he was seeing her sad face. He couldn’t take it anymore. He opened his eyes and said “I’m going to buy it.”
