The prime minister's eyes narrowed as Dexter broached the topic of the F-X plan and the plane crash involving his father. "Is that why you agreed to marry my daughter? To interrogate me about my involvement in those incidents?" he snapped, his voice filled with a mix of anger and suspicion.

Dexter held his ground, meeting the prime minister's fiery gaze with unwavering determination. "No, sir. I agreed to marry Mirai because I care for her and want to support her in any way I can," he replied, his tone steady and earnest. "But I also need to know the truth about what happened to my father and the F-X plan. I need to understand the full extent of your involvement."

The prime minister's expression softened slightly, a flicker of regret crossing his features. "I can't discuss that with you, Dexter. There are things you don't understand," he said, his voice tinged with sorrow.

Dexter's resolve remained unshaken. "I need to understand, sir. For my own peace of mind and for the sake of my

    Sandy's eyes blazed with fury as she fixed her gaze on the boss. "Whatever happens in the course of this plan, if it goes wrong, you'll have to bear it alone," she spat out, her voice trembling with anger. "I know what Dexter is capable of. He won't just sit back and be a puppet to the prime minister."The boss shifted uncomfortably in his chair, his expression hardening. "You seem to forget where you belong. You better do as you are told if you wish to see the end of everything we're doing," he warned, his voice low and menacing.Sandy's lips curled into a sneer as she interrupted him with a mocking laugh. "Don't you dare threaten me," she retorted. "If anything happens to Ivy, I won't beg for mercy from Dexter. I'll make you do it on our behalf. Like Dexter would say, we're all just puppets hungry for power."The boss's face turned red with anger as he leaned forward, his voice rising to a shout. "Get out of my office!

    Dexter was all set for his date with Mirai. It was a very dangerous game he was playing but he knew what was at stake if he didn't dance to the tune of the prime minister. His agreement to marry the prime minister's daughter was a necessary step to leaving India, getting the information he was seeking regarding the F-X plan and saving Ivy and he was willing to give it all it took. Just as he contemplated calling Richard, his phone buzzed, displaying Richard's caller ID."Dexter, I found out something that might interest you," Richard said."What's that?" Dexter inquired, his curiosity piqued."Meet me at Raju Singh restaurant. I'll tell you all about it," Richard instructed before ending the call.Dexter promptly hailed a cab and directed the driver to Raju Singh restaurant, eager to hear what Richard had discovered."So, what is it you wanted to tell me?" Dexter inquired, taking a seat in front of Richard. He noticed there was someone else sitting near Richard—an Indian man named Aja

    Dexter found himself being escorted to an unfamiliar place, disoriented from the effects of the substance he had unwittingly inhaled. As he struggled to collect his thoughts, the man who had intercepted him at the restaurant approached."Excuse us!" the man said ordering the driver and the other man who had brought Dexter to the location to leave them alone."You?" Dexter exclaimed, recognizing the man from their encounter earlier.The man's demeanor remained composed as he regarded Dexter with a steady gaze. "Yes, it's me," he confirmed tersely. "And you're exactly where you need to be.""Who the hell are you and what the hell is going on here?" Dexter demanded, his voice laced with both surprise and anger."It doesn't matter who I am," the man replied calmly, his tone not revealing much. "And if I were you, I'd conserve my energy for what lies ahead rather than wasting it on questions.""Where's Mirai? What have you done to her?" Dexter pressed on, his concern for Mirai evident in h

    Dexter returned to the hospital and found Mirai at the lobby. He was glad to see her there after worrying that something bad had happened to her at the restaurant. It appeared she had just finished speaking with the doctor, and from the look of things, the prime minister was no longer feigning illness. He appeared awake and alert, indicating a significant improvement in his condition. "Mr. Prime Minister, I'm glad to see you're feeling better," Dexter said, maintaining the facade to avoid arousing suspicion in Mirai."Thank you, Mr. Richmond. I apologize for the inconvenience I caused you. I've asked the authorities to lift the ban on your exit from the country and they're already on it," the prime minister said."That's a relief to hear. And what about the allegations regarding the smuggling of drugs?" Dexter inquired."Those charges have been cleared as well. Once the ban is lifted, you will be free to return to your country. I'll arrange for transportation to the airport," the pri

Despite her initial reluctance, he understood that she was his best chance at saving Richard from impending danger. With a sense of urgency, he dialed her number, each ring amplifying his anxiety until finally, Mirai picked up the call."What do you want from me?" Mirai's irritation was palpable, her tone laced with frustration."Mirai, please, I need your help. Richard's life is at stake, and you're the only one who can assist me," Dexter pleaded, his voice betraying his desperation.Mirai hesitated, but her curiosity piqued as Dexter's urgency resonated through the phone. "Alright, I'm listening," she relented, giving Dexter the opportunity to explain his predicament."There's a safe in your father's office, behind the photo of Prime Minister Bajan Mahandra. Inside, there's a D-VEX drive I mentioned to you before. I don't think your father knows about it. Please, Mirai, I need your help retrieving it. I

    Dexter's suspicions were confirmed as Ajay Kumar and one of the men he had encountered during his previous visit to the house arrived with Richard who was blindfolded. It became clear to Dexter that Ajay was intricately involved in the plot surrounding the D-VEX drive and was likely working for the individual holding Richard captive. With this revelation, Dexter realized the extent of the conspiracy he was up against, and the danger that lay ahead in his quest to uncover the truth about the D-VEX drive."I knew it was you. It wasn't a coincidence that Richard was kidnapped after we met up with you. And it wasn't a coincidence that you offered to help me ensure Richard's safety if I could give you the drive. But why?" Dexter questioned, his voice laced with suspicion."I don't have time for your questions. Just give me the D-VEX drive, and your friend is safe," Ajay demanded, his tone brimming with impatience as he brandished the gun."And how can I be sure that you won't harm him even

We've been tricked!" Mr. Blaq spat out angrily."I'm sorry. I had no idea it was fake. I never anticipated Mr. Richmond's cunning. He really outsmarted us," Ajay admitted."Do you think the boss will tolerate this? Your task was straightforward: retrieve the drive, yet you

    “Today, I'll have my full revenge. Today I'll end it once and for all,” James muttered, his eyes burning with anger as he opened the small briefcase he was holding. Mr. Blaq stood beside him wondering what he was doing as that wasn't part of the initial plan. Several other men were in the room, each holding a gun, their faces set with grim determination. “What are you doing?” Richard asked, his voice trembling as he caught sight of the item in the briefcase, which looked alarmingly like a bomb. “I’m about to send you all to the devil,” James scoffed, his tone dripping with malicious disdain. Richard’s eyes widened in fear. “You’re insane! You can’t do this!” James chuckled darkly. “Oh, but I can. And I will. It’s time for the Richmond empire to fall, and you’re just collateral damage.” Mr. Blaq shifted uneasily, glancing at the other men. Despite his loyalty to James and the Rogue's Secret Coalition, he hadn’t signed up for mass murder. “James, are you sure about this? The

    "Raphael and Priscilla are finally behind bars,” Julio said as he addressed members of the Rogue Secret Coalition. “All along they thought they were masters of the game not knowing that they were not even players in the first place,” James scoffed, his voice dripping with utter disdain.There was an unusual silence that fell upon them in the room as if someone had walked in but it was quickly interrupted by president Lee Chan's crackling voice.“There's no need basking in an already won victory. Raphael and Priscilla Wayne were just pawns in this game right from the very beginning. They've served their purpose and it's time to look into the bigger picture,”Julio's respect for Lee Chan had always been massive seeing how much he reasoned like himself. If there was something he liked about Lee Chan, it was the fact that his hunger for power was like a vampire thirsty for blood.“That's right. It's time to hit the big target and that's Dexter Richmond himself.” Julio said, his eyes meet

    This isn't good,” Katherine's forehead creased slightly conveying a sense of unease. They had left the mourning room as soon as they heard that James had escaped. That wasn't part of the plan. With James already out of the picture, it was left with Julio and Mr Blaq but now that James had escaped, they could smell trouble brewing already. “So what do we do now?” Dexter asked, seeing that there was really not much he could bring himself to think about regarding everything that was happening. “We'll have to be vigilant. If James had failed in his first attempt to kill you, he'll come again and this time, he won't spare you.” Katherine revealed, her hands clasped, with a palpable sense of nervous energy underlying her demeanor. Dexter could understand what his mother was saying but in the midst of it all, he still wanted to know why his mother and Ivy's mother had a rough conversation earlier.

That's Dexter's biological mother.” Stephanie replied, causing Ivy's mouth to open wide in awe as she had never expected it. From his conversation with Dexter back when they newly started dating, he had told her that his mother was probably dead having been left and abandoned at an orphanage as a baby.“What's she doing here? And did Dexter get to find her?” Stephanie muttered to herself.Dexter noticed Ivy's presence and walked up to her. He felt bad that he had not shown himself to her ever since he got out of the burning warehouse alive.“Ivy….” He

The armed forces and the police took up the matter to find who actually attempted to kill Dexter that night. With all of Dexter's enemies out of the way, the investigation narrowed down to two possible individuals - Julio Jones and Mr Blaq. “You idiot!

As the ambulance took off that night, Dexter couldn't help it but to pray silently in his heart that nothing bad should happen to Sandy.“Please hurry up,” Dexter's cry echoed through the van, his cloth stained with blood. His fear kept increasing as he watched Sandy's life slowly fade away.“Don't die, Sandy,” His voice trembled as tears began to flow of their own accord.He had never expected that Sandy would do something like that for him, not after her betrayal when they were still married.The night seemed to be darker and quieter as the team of paramedics conveyed Sandy to the Emergency Room.
