Cora's mouth hung open as Aidan revealed the identity of the girl they just bought from Jett.

How's this possible? How can a Pedro's blood be here and at a dangerous place waiting to be sold?

The business is her father's own, how did she end up here?

Her confusion brought loads of questions in her head and her head might explode due to what's happening right now. . Aidan wasn't helping her confusion and it's getting her angry. She doesn't know what sort of man derives pleasure in keeping someone in suspense.

Cora took her pad and viewed the CCTV camera in the car that holds the new girl and the guards.

Chyna was sleeping peacefully on Marcos shoulder, that's what she gets for disobeying her, the gas still has effects on her though not fully. She can wake up when she wants to.

"She was my best friend back at the Pedros." Aidan muttered, looking at the footage displayed in the pad Cora is holding.

"What's she doing here in the first place?" Cora asked one of the questions that's d

    The whole room was quiet except for the sound of Cora's advancing footsteps. Chyna tilted her head towards Aidan then back to the advancing Cora hoping that what she heard was wrong. "Do you seriously have to do that now, Cora?" Aidan asks, shaking his head.Cora rolled her eyes and halted in front of Chyna who seemed to have frozen hard. "Hey...learn to keep your mouth shut." She said with a frown to Chyna whose mouth was slightly opened. "Shall we sit down?" Aidan suggested. "Nope, I'm starving. I don't know about her but I can't talk sensibly on an empty stomach. Feel free to join me." Cora declined, heading towards the dining area with a smile on her face.She loves the way she got Chyna in a tight, shocked spot. The shock was beyond what she could be feeling right now, at least her facial expression said so and she's not sorry a bit. Chyna watched as Cora left, turning towards Aidan with a fake smile plastered on her face, she ask" can you help me escape here? I know you're

    Chyna stuffed the spicy tacos in her mouth savoring the flavor. "Darn! He makes them good." She muttered with mouth full, heading out of the kitchen after spending like twenty minutes thinking about things she's not supposed to think about, thinking of any slight probability that might led to her identity being exposedAfter what seems like forever, she gave a little disappointed sigh when she didn't make headway with the puzzles in her head. She'd choose not to worry over how those people get to know her identity, worrying over what's already there wouldn't solve her problems or make them forget what they already know. So why bother herself with worries when she can enjoy her time here? It's such a cool mansion and right now, all she can think of is how to make sure she stays here. She has no idea who these people are or how they got to know so much about her but if they don't cause any harm to her in any way, she will enjoy staying here till she gets bored of everything which is

    The question Chyna asked brought a smile to Aidan's lips; a smile that didn't spread across his face and it was noticeable to the two girls present there with him. "Your smile is screwy and shrewd." Chyna commented.Cora tilted her surprise face towards Chyna and it only earned her a grin from her. "Let's start from your background." Aidan broke the silence looking at Chyna who gulped down an invisible saliva in her mouth. She focused all her attention on Aidan wondering what exactly he wanted from her. "You are Mr. Pedro Lucas' daughter, right?" He asked, peering at her.Chyna tried to break from his ghostly stare but it was impossible because the more she tried to break away from the spell he'd casted on her, the more drawn to him she became.There is something about those eyes that she can't figure out yet and she desperately wants to. "I told you not to bring my past into the discussion because my past is my past and it has nothing to do with any of you. I don't fucking under

    Cora looked at Aidan's confused face and laughter bubbled out of her mouth. Aidan gave her a strict look and she managed to control the laughter after much effort."Sorry, she's just funny and good at misinterpreting simple sentences." Cora said with a chuckle and Aidan grunted.Chyna watched the exchange between the two and smiled at Cora's words. "I met Jett in that hellhole last month, I went there to make a video of the illegal trade and I got caught in the process." "What were you planning to use the video for?" He asked, giving his full attention to her. "We hoped to make a few bucks from it." She said and Aidan gave a questioning glare. "My boyfriend and I decided to take chances but luck wasn't on our side or should I say my side because I got caught and he got away." She explained and anger flashed across her face remembering what happened."Of all the illegal happenings in Greece, why did you choose Jett?" "I don't know, my lover thought it was the best." She lied and

    Chyna pried her eyes open still in daze about where she is, gradually memories of how he landed here began to boot in her memory. "Oh heaven, this is the best sleep I've heard in years." She muttered to herself making her way out of the king size bed that could contain ten people or more."Good morning Chyna." She was immediately alerted by the voice and began to look around. "Who's there?" She asked, looking around."I'm Vee, your room bot which makes me your personal bot as long as you're an occupant of this room." Vee explained to the baffled looking Chyna who had no idea what it's talking about."Uhmmm, ohkay...nice to meet you Vee." She said standing up to head to the bathroom."Nice to meet you too. Do you need anything?" Vee asked but Chyna was still in doubt about the whole thing. She was taken to the rehabilitation center immediately after she finished a private university. She knew such things exist but adapting to them so easily is hard for her though she's trying her v

    Aidan was immediately alerted, with a swift movement he held the Chyna whose eyes were slowly drifting close. "Chyna!"He called, shaking the unconscious girl. "Well...that was definitely a shocker." Cora said calmly, looking as Aidan lifted Chyna heading up. "Get your ass off and follow me!" Aidan ordered looking back at Cora who seemed less concerned about the whole scenario happening."Chill dude, she'll be fine. You don't need to start shooting daggers at me. I'm coming." She muttered, grabbing some sliced fruits and began to follow Aidan."I never knew she'll pass out though." Cora said with a chuckle examining Chyna."Me neither, I didn't know how she'd react seeing my real face but I was definitely not expecting her to pass out." He said pacing up and down."You seriously need to relax, she is not dead and I'm sure she'll wake up soon enough. A lot was already going through her head and seeing her late brother in law who's supposed to be dead and rotten six inches below alive

    "Hey." Cora waved at Chyna immediately she opened her eyes later in the evening."Uhmmm, hi." She replied in a sleepy voice."Where am i?" She asked looking around the room and back to Cora for an answer."You're in Aidan's room, he'll be with us shortly. He went to handle some work." She replied."Oh...what the heck happened to me? I'm so weak and hungry." She muttered rubbing her grumbling stomach."You passed out a few hours ago, remember?" She asked the lost looking Chyna whose face suddenly flared up towards her. There were questions on her face, those beautiful deep green eyes, her lips quiver to ask those questions but she couldn't instead she just stared at Cora with half open mouth and puzzled look. "Hey darling, I know there are questions in your heart but believe me. I'm not in the right picture to answer those questions, Aidan will be here soon and he'll give you all the explanation you need. Please relax your nerves and please, don't fucking pass out again! You got Aida

    "How's this possible? You're dead, the world knew that for a fact. How are you alive? Please if all this is a trick or anything, please stop it cause I'll be deeply hurt. Just ask me whatever you wish to know or any information that you think I have, I'll try my best to be honest with you. I promise. How?" Chyna muttered with a pain filled voice as tears streamed down from her eyes down her cheeks.Something in her had accepted the fact that the man standing before her is Aidan but a stubborn scared part of her refused to acknowledge it and this leads to more confusion in her already confused mind."Do you think I'm not him?" Aidna asked gently going closer to her and he was glad that she didn't scurried away this time around."I'll never lie to you Chyna and I'll explain it to you if you just calm down." He added, wiping the tears from her face with his thumb. Chyna looked up at him and realization down on her and on impulse, she wrapped her hands around him. "God!!! I knew things

    EPILOGUE. *Thwack! Thwack!! Thwack!!!*"Ahhhhh! Ahhhhh!! Ahhhhh!!!" Mr. Pedro screamed in misery as they thrashed him mercilessly in jail.“Enough!" Aidan ordered and all the hitting stopped abruptly. He stood up and steered towards Mr. Pedro who was sagging in chains, his body red, blood dripping from the opened wound on his body. "You... What have I done again? Isn't sending me to jail enough for you?" Mr. Pedro asked weakly and Aidan let out a soft laugh.This man had no idea what he had in store for him, why the hell does he think he pleaded with three judges not to sentence him to death by hanging?He's gonna suffer so much till he chooses to perish miserably. "You don't seem to learn, do you, Mr. Pedro?" He asked and the man looked at him weakly, sweat entering into his eyes, yet he could not wipe it away because of the position he was in. "What have I done?" He asked again, staring at Aidan with disdain."Chyna... You think you can blackmail Chyna into doing what you want,

    Chapter 220One month later. "Where is it, God? Where the hell is it?!" A female voice cried angrily as she searched vigorously with the aid of a touch light.If she doesn't get what Mr. Pedro wants, he's gonna get her arrested, she has to get everything that he wants, anything at all. God!How did she get herself involved in this mess in the first place? Everything was finally going great for the first time in her life and now, that useless man wants to ruin everything for her!"God!" She said in exhaustion and suddenly the light came on. Her heart began to beat violently as the office light of Aidan's office came on.She was frozen in one place, her heart almost running out of beat and her brain reeling in different directions as she tried to figure out what was going on... No one was supposed to be at the office now, it was the middle of the night. Who could have come to the office at such an odd hour? "Are you looking for anything I might help with?

    Chapter 219."What the hell are you talking about Aidan? You think you can just appear and disappear as you wish, who the hell do you think you are?!" Mr. Pedro asked angrily, his face contorted with anger. "I am Aidan Karanos, the only surviving son of the late Mr and Mrs Luke whom you killed, the only grandson of late Mr. Kal Karanos whom you had a hand in his death, and the heir of the Karanos Consortium," Aidan said loudly and gasps could be heard from different directions. The cameramen immediately focused the cameras on him and many more people brought out their phones to start filming. "Wh... What?!" Mr. Pedros said in shock but suddenly burst out laughing to the shock of everyone present."Has he ran mad ?" Someone in the crowd asked. "You are the biggest clown in the world, Aidan. You think you can come back from the dead to make some tall claims, you..." He paused and laughed again. "The heir to the Karanos empire is Ares and not Aidan, you can not be the heir, you are

    Chapter 218."How do you feel about the death of your daughter, Mrs. Pedro?" One of the journalists asked Mr. Pedro who was in all black.Today was the burial of Chyna Pedro who was assassinated a week ago by some group of men. No one knows about the man."It was a very tragic loss indeed, she was finally finding her footings in this world and...oh God!" Mrs. Pedro paused to wipe the tears that were streaming down her face. "She was finally getting the best of what she was meant for when those evil men decided to kill her, I don't know what happened because as you all know, I was arrested a few weeks ago base on some wrong information, I pray that her soul will rest in perfect peace" she said with a sob and Arissa held her mother to console her. "Is it true that you guys never get along well with the deceased?" Another asked."Chyna was a drug addict and mentally imbalanced and that's nothing new, because we tried to help her overcome her addiction, we became her enemies and you can

    Chapter 217.THREE MONTHS LATER. "You can not arrest me, take your hands off me, you idiots!!!" Mrs. Pedro screeched, as the policemen held her and were leading her away."What's all these Chyna?" Mr. Pedro asked, anger visible on his face."I'm arresting your wife for fraud and I have evidence of everything, if you want to see for yourself, you can meet us in court, Mr. Pedro," Chyna said calmly and this only seemed to flare him up. "Are you insane, do you realize what you're doing?! That's your mother that you're arresting!" He huffed.Chyna frowned and turned to face him squarely, "I do realize what I am doing but did you realize the rubbish you just spat out of your mouth?! The last time I remember, you two killed my parents and took away everything they left for me and as long as I am alive, I shall make you pay dearly for that, don't ever make the mistake of calling her my mother. I am not related to any of you and I never will." She muttered and turned to leave but Mr. Pedro

    Chapter 216."What?!" Mr. Pedro exclaimed, his eyes almost popping out of their socket.Chyna looked at Mr. Pedro, wondering what could have shocked the man to such an extent that he exclaimed so much in the middle of a meeting.Things had been tense ever since she came here and the necessary signatures and agreements were being carried out by both teams. Mrs. Pedro had been giving her a crazy stare, she looked so shocked and up till now, she was still looking lost and shocked. She kinda loves the reactions she got upon coming here, it was worth everything and yet she fears for the aftermath of everything, she's scared of what rye Pedro's would do after they get the shares. Mr. Pedro's phone had been ringing repeatedly and when he finally decided to pick up, he'd let out a shout. She can't help but wonder what could have shocked him so much to the extent that he was looking very disorganized. Mrs. Pedro immediately stood up and headed towards the husband who was speaking discreetl

    Mrs. Pedro's hands began to shake lightly, heart hammering against her ribcage as she saw who just stepped out of the car, a low shaky murmur escaped her mouth, "Chyna?" When Mr. Pedro heard his wife mention the name, he began to accept reality. He wasn't hallucinating.That's Chyna...But how? She was supposed to be in the rehab center or did the woman just look like Chyna? There's only one way to find out and with that, he began to head down to meet her. Chyna's blank face scanned the environment and saw the large crowd which mostly consisted of media personnels. A low sigh escaped her mouth, well, she has to do this. She and Aidan had both traveled down here but as planned, he'd go somewhere else and she'll be here to sign the deal with Mr. Pedro. She had no idea why Aidan wished to go into partnership with Mr. Pedro and she would have stopped it if she had any power to but there was nothing she could do about it. It's his money, his company and he gets to take any decision r

    TWO WEEKS LATER. "Mr. Pedro, how do you feel about getting in partnership with the new empire that had taken the business world by storm?" A journalist asked Mr. Pedro who was all smiles."I feel delighted of course, to partner with such a profitable business would deliberately uplift my own empire to first. You all know how my empire is eyeing the top and I'm pretty sure that this time, with the partnership of the new empire, my empire will finally see the top." Mr. Pedro replied proudly, his eyes going towards his wife who was surrounded by another group of journalists. This is what he wanted, he knew that signing a partnership contract with the new company would bring a lot of fame for him and his family, this is what he'd wanted. "Mr. Pedro, what do you have to say about those influential businessmen who withdrew their shares from your empire a few months ago? Do you have any message for them?" Another journalist asked. "Of course I do, I always have messages for those who thi

    ."You think you can threaten me, you rascals!!!" He boomed laughing like a maniac. Aidan's arm went around Cora's waist and he murmured,"Press the button." The woman who seems to be in daze immediately pressed the bottom and in less than a nanosecond, Drake was surrounded by drones. Drake looked around and laugh hysterically,"Do you think this will stop me?" He asked and laughed again."It's like you have forgotten how this gun works but don't worry, I'll demonstrate." He said."Press it again Cora." Aidan ordered, his eyes fixed on Drake who seemed so sure of himself. Cora immediately pressed the button again and the drones surrounding Drake got into action, they immediately began to web some sort of material around Drake. They webbed it so fast that it was almost unnoticeable to Drake. Before anyone knew what was happening, Drake was in a huge balloon-like ball, the only difference was that he wasn't floating, he was still standing still on the ground. Upon seeing what had j
