Ava was inside the room with her kids when she heard someone knocking. She went to check who it was and saw it was Crispin, she didn’t shows any reaction and wasn’t surprise. But the deep within she was astonished because he didn’t inform her when coming. Casper was a friend she got from Spain five years ago. He supported her and was a great comfort to him. Even though Ava didn’t lack anything but it was Crispin who help her took care of the twins.

They were glad to see him. They have always been talking to him through video call.“ Uncle Cri
Fifteen minutes later, Fredrick came with the result.” Sir here is the result. There is no specific reasons why he returned. After you destroyed his underground business, he moved all his assets to Germany. He has nothing in name here. So I think he has a bad motive for coming here.”“I see, what is his relationship with Ava?”“They met five years ago.”Ava met Crispin in Spain when she was going for antenatal. She was heavily pregnant and her time was almost due. Her pregnancy came with many complications and so made her very weak. On her way to the hospital one-day, she was ambush by some gangsters. The gangsters beat up all her bodyguards. She was about to be kidnapped when Crispin came to her rescue. He took her to the hospital and made sure she was alright. They became very close since then. Alaric and Fredrick both felt something wasn’t right but they couldn’t point what was wrong. Why would she be ambushed on a foreign land. Crispin was in Germany, why did he move to Spain.
It’s been thirty minutes since Ava left Crispin ‘s side and he has been damn worried. He has been searching for her and calling her but she wasn’t picking.” He was damn worried.

She has been waiting for him. She didn’t hear his voice and so decide to come down. She searched around the house and couldn’t find him. She was exploring his house when he heard a voice.
