Third person pov

Noah and twinkle were unaware of the evil third eye which was watching them from far.

"It's getting cold here. Let's head back now! " Noah announced jumping down the hood of car.

"We're visiting this place again this weekend... " Twinkle followed Noah action.

While they were going back, Harmony's phone was bombarding with enormous messages followed by calls from her manager and her mom.

"What's wrong? You look tensed! " Noah asked looking at her.

"No idea! Suddenly within ten minutes, I have about 200+ notifications on my account and — " But before she could complete both there phone's started ringing again.

Noah parked the car aside and both attended their respective calls.

“Yes mom! Why are you calling me... I told you I won't come until dad agrees — ” before harmony could complete her sentence she was cut off by her mom.

“ Check news harmony! Someone is trying to harm your image... I don't know who did this...Your dad, he is fuming with anger and outside our house there are paparazzi waiting for you ... ”

Twinkle was left aghast after listening to her mother. She quickly disconnected the call and opened the news channel.

Almost every channel was displaying the picture of her and Noah sitting close to each other with Noah's hand in her hair.
Noah's back was facing the camera but her face was clearly visible...

What troubled her the most was the headlines.

Harmony Twinkie Price is seen getting cosy with some random guy... Seems like the actress is cheating on her fiancee — Ian Grace.

Famous actor Ian Grace's fiancee— Harmony twinkle price's was spotted with another guy. Sources says she was cheating on him for quite a long time now...!

Our power couple is no more power couple. Harmony twinkle price is cheating on Ian grace.

Cheating.
Cheating.
Cheating.

Those words played in her mind again and again. How is this called cheating when she was never in relationship with Ian.

Noah sister - Harriet had called him the instant she saw Noah and harmony picture. Once they had spoken, Noah turned to face harmony whose eyes were filled with tears. Her hand almost shaking and her eyes were struck on the phone screen.

Someone had leaked harmony and Noah pictures. To their horror , the picture were from today.

"Twinkle?! " Noah placed his hand on her shoulder.

Twinkle titled her head slightly to look at Noah. Tears started rolling down her cheek. She is named as cheater now. A cheater...!

"Noah, they are calling me chea-cheater.. " She utter hiccuping.

"I am sorry twinkle. It's all because of me. " Noah clenched his jaws. He considers himself responsible for twinkle's condition. Had they not gone for outing today, all this news and pictures wouldn't have leaked.

Twinkle without answering kept sobbing placing her palms firmly on her eyes.

Noah hugged her pulling her into his embrace. His heart pained seeing her cry. He very well knew who did this cheap work. He knew Ian was evil but what Noah never thought was — Ian will drop to this level to take out his anger.

After sobbing for quite a long time, twinkle was feeling a bit dizzy. Her heart was filled with agony, she doesn't regret being spotted with Noah but what hurt her the most was she being called a cheater.

"I can't go to my place... There are paparazzi waiting for me. " She said with a feeble voice with her head still buried in Noah chest.

Noah caressed her head, "I will take you to my place then. "

"We will sort this out twinkle. I'm really very sorry because of me you are given all such names! " Noah confessed, he was very regretful. He tried to make her happy but instead ended up making her more sad.

Twinkle jerked herself away from him, she looked up at his highly stung orbs, "Noah, You tried to explain me how much accepting Ian proposal could hurt me in future. I turned a blind eye towards it. I didn't want to make him look like a joker and now you see I'm a cheater in front of others. I don't regret being spotted with you, the only thing I don't like is — " She paused when tears streamed down her cheek. Wiping away the tears, she inhaled deeply, "I don't like being called a cheater. I was never in relationship with him..."

"That bastard. He will pay for everything... " Noah cursed with his hand clenched.

"Wait? How are you sure that it's Ian who did this? "

"I'm sure it's his doing... He and I had a argument earlier about you." with that Noah told harmony everything which happened at her house.

Harmony gasped placing her hand on her mouth, "How could he stoop down to such level... He literally buried my future , just because he wanted to show you how powerful he is... "

"Twinkle, we will think something but for now you need some rest " Noah wiped the tears and kissed her forehead.

"What happened?! " Noah asked.

Twinkle threw her phone across the wall, " I fucking can't believe this... My manager called and he said he cancelled all deals. He doesn't want to work with me anymore! " Twinkle held her head with her hand and slumped down on floor burying her face in her lap. A loud sob escaped her lips.

Noah stormed towards her and pulled her into his arms.

"I worked hard to come till here noah. How can that bastard ruin my future... " She held his shirt tightly while looking up at Noah with questioning and dejected look in her eyes.

"Please tell me this is dream... Noah wake me up from this bad dream " Harmony was pleading him, this broken side of harmony was disturbing Noah.

"We will come up with something twinkle. Please control yourself... " Noah tried to placate her, he held her close to him while caressing her head and her back.

She cried for a very long time, slowly her breathe started to become even. Noah titled his head downward to see twinkle sleeping in his arms. Her eyes surrounded with smeared stains of maskara. Tip of her nose was turned red while her lips were swollen.

She looked broken.

He picked her in bridal style and slowly placed her on the bed without waking her.

Sighing he sat next to her looking at harmony. She looked peaceful while sleeping. He reached down to her and caressed her cheek.

He was lost thinking about the way to come out this situation when his phone chimed with a message.

Ian - Now you know what I'm capable of...

Noah - You shouldn't have done this! I thought you were better than this.
