Corrupted : Desires of the Devils.Chapter 3 Updated - Page 2

"You're all the way up on the twenty-first floor," he explained, stopping us at the elevator and pushing the button, "which has an amazing view. You'll be pleased."

I gripped the strap of my bag over my chest, barely able to wait. Nothing sounded so good as to wake up in the morning and gaze over the vast city, a horizon of buildings that touched the sky and millions of people working and living.

While some felt lost in large cities"the lights, noise, and action too much"I couldn't contain the thrill of being part of something bigger. The energy excited me.

I checked my phone again, making sure I hadn't missed a call from my mother. I was still worried about her. And kind of worried about me, too, even though I didn't let it stop me from leaving AzaadGunj this morning.

The soft bell dinged, and I followed Mr. Raghuveer into the elevator, seeing him press twenty-one. But I narrowed my eyes, noticing that there were no floors higher than that.

"I thought there were twenty-two floors," I inquired, standing next to him.

"There are." He nodded assuredly. "But that floor houses only one residence, and he has his own private elevator across the lobby."

I turned my head forward again, understanding. "I see."

"Your floor only has two apartments," he explained, "since the apartments are quite a bit larger. And the other apartment on your floor is currently vacant, so you'll enjoy lots of privacy."

The apartments were quite a bit larger on my floor? I didn't remember anyone saying anything about that .

"And here we are," he chirped, stepping forward with a smile as the doors opened. He held out an arm, inviting me to go first.

Stepping out of the elevator, I looked left and then right, seeing a narrow, well-lit hallway with black, marble floors and walls the color of a sunset. He veered left, leading me to an apartment door, but I cast a quick look over my shoulder, seeing another massive, black door with the gold numbers 2104 on it.

That must be the empty one.

We reached the other apartment door"mine, apparently"and the manager immediately slid the key in and swung the door open, walking right inside.

I watched him saunter off into the apartment, while I remained standing in the doorway, frozen.

"Um..." Okay.

This didn't make sense. This apartment was huge.

I slowly stepped inside, my arms hanging limply at my sides as I took in the high ceilings, spacious living room, and a full wall of windows, giving away the beautiful patio courtyard, complete with a fountain and actual grass outside. The same black marble floors carried in here from the hallway, but the apartment walls were cream-colored.

I was confused now. Why would my low budget apartment be so luxurious ? I asked him to check the Rental contract details and everything that's related to me renting this apartment but in vain because he was sure that this is mine, and absolutely with the same amount of rent. I was't sure about what to do but I had no choice so I accepted it for the time being. After sometime I unpacked and left to explore the area and find a good cafe and I was lucky to find one soon just opposite my building . I sat on a chair near glass window from where the road and my building's entrance was visible. My coffee arrived soon and I held the cup close to my lips t take a sip while looking at my building's entrance where A Black Lamborghini stopped and the figure coming out of it took my breathe away when the man turned his face toward my side to close the door, I felt my heart stopping for a second and the sheer need to breath was increasing by the every second I stared at the man. He luckily did't see me and went inside my building...

"What he's doing here ? What he's doing at my building? Why is he here ? " My mind was flooded by these questions...I failed to decide weather I should be happy and excited to see him or be fearful ? But why should I be afraid ? what did I do wrong ? Everything that happened that night 7 years ago was the man's fault who just went inside my building Mr.Suraj Rajvanshi...
