"Why would you ask something like that?" Laila questioned Levi after he asked her if her grandmother hates him."I'm sorry. Nevermind."Levi said, as if reluctant to answer Laila.Laila placed her hand on Levi's, "please speak to me." she said."I just don't feel at home. I know I've been living alone most of my life but I can't help but feel a certain kind of hostility between me and your family." Levi said to Laila."Hey, don't say that. This is new to everyone and we are all trying to adjust to it in our various ways." Laila said, cupping Levi's face in her hands, "Never feel hated here. It will only hurt me too." Laila said.Levi nodded.*Later at night*"Are you ready to go through with this?" Sultan asked Sami."Yes, sir. I won't let you down." Sami answered.They both put the plans in motion. Sultan went down to have dinner with his mother and daughter and he didn't need to stress himself with making Levi sit on the spot he wanted.Levi sat on a chair facing the window it was af
Sami returned to Sultan's mansion and informed him of all that happened.Sultan only listened and didn't bother to say anything."Aren't you going to say something? Sorry, I failed but I think it is less of my fault and more of the fault of the men you sent. Levi saw them and faked the rest of the way." Sami explained."I have to get my hands on Gordon and ask him directly. If he is sensible enough, he will tell the truth and stop hiding Felix. I already know Levi and Felix are one person. But I think I will need Gordon's help in my next move." Sultan said."Last I heard, he is a well-guarded man. If you plan to kidnap him then it won't work." Sami said."I'm not kidnapping Gordon Calderon himself. I am kidnapping his daughter. He will come to me on his own." Sultan said to Sami.*Gordon Calderon's mansion*Gordon left his mansion early in the morning with his bodyguards as always, for an important meeting that was to start by seven o'clock.Mary was left to stay home along with the o
"Your dad will be here soon," Sultan said while watching Mary struggle on the chair she was tied to.A few minutes later, a car was heard from outside and one of Sultan's men rushed in to inform him that Gordon was there.Gordon walked in with an angry face and a gun in his hand. He pushed the gun against Sultan's head and Sultan's men pointed their guns at Gordon but Gordon didn't care.Sultan raised his right hand in mid-air to signal his men not to fire at Gordon."How dare you touch my daughter?! Do you have a death wish you are so eager to make come true?!" Gordon yelled at Sultan but Sultan remained calm."What made you result to this means? Was there ever a day you requested a meeting with me that I didn't come?" Gordon shouted more."Bringing your daughter it was the only way to guarantee that you will answer my questions with nothing but the truth," Sultan said to Gordon.Sultan signalled with his finger to his men and they turned their guns and pointed them to Mary who was s
Gordon stepped away from his daughter's bedroom door and searched for Levi's number in his phone.Just as Gordon found the phone number, his phone rang and it was Sultan calling.Gordon answered the call still heated up with anger, "yes?! What do you want?!" he asked Sultan."Lower your voice when speaking to me," Sultan said, calmly.Gordon felt his breath get wedged in his throat as he held back his contradicting emotions. What happened tonight made him hate Sultan even more than he did before."Why are you calling me? I just left from meeting you." Gordon said, in a calmer time than the first."That's more like it," Sultan said, causing Gordon to grit his teeth."I called to give you a warning. I don't remember if I already told you before or not but all I know is that I am saying it now. The meeting between us should be kept a secret from Levi. Remember that he lives with me. if I get the slightest hint that he knows anything..." Sultan paused to let his words sink in."Then what?
Laila watched as her father drove away and she was mad at him for always being the one making her decisions for her.Laila began to walk away and her grandmother, Mrs Lorenzo, tried to stop her."Where you think you are going, young lady? You heard your father. We have to leave." Mrs Lorenzo said."I am returning. There is no way I will let Father put an end to my marriage without a reasonable explanation." Laila said."Trust me dear. He is doing this for your good." Mrs Lorenzo replied."For what good grandma?! What good?! He didn't bother saying anything to me about his decision and just left and you expect me to just take it like that?! No way!" Laila shouted.Mrs Lorenzo sighed, "I planned to tell you this after we've landed home but I guess you give me no choice.""What is it? Explain to me why father is behaving this way." Laila said to Mrs Lorenzo."The man you got married to is none other than your father's half-brother. He is your uncle, Laila." Mrs Lorenzo answered.Laila ga
After returning to Sultan's mansion, Levi went straight up to his bedroom and took out the files he had hidden.The pictures he took of documents he found in Sultan's room were printed and in the folder he was holding.Levi made a phone call to someone and got the person to agree to meet him.Levi got into the company and was directed to where the man's office was. He sat down opposite the man's table who seemed to be focused on his laptop."So, what is this big news you wanted to share with me?" the man asked. He looked up from his laptop and closed it, "it better be real and epic because I won't waste my time like this for anything less." the man added."Oh, it's real alright," Levi said, placing the folder on the man's table.The man picked it up and adjusted his glasses, "hmm"He opened the folder and looked through it. His eyes widened at each passing second he read it."Is this real?" the man just had to ask. He couldn't believe his eyes."More than you think sir. My name is Lev
"You think this is funny don't you?" Sultan asked, noticing the grin on Felix's face."I do but I'm not sure of how you would take it when the truth about your fraudulent practices and scandals gets out in the open. You may kill me because of it but I assure you I lost nothing." Felix said, losing all hope of keeping his sanity.Felix felt like a tied-down madman, not scared of the consequences his past actions would lead to.After a while, one of Sultan's men rushed to him with his phone in hand."Sir! Sir!" he yelled.The man stopped next to Sultan's seat."What is it?" Sultan asked in annoyance."Sir your face is on the news. People are talking about you." the man replied, showing Sultan his phone and Sultan was shocked.Seeing the shock on Sultan's face made Felix happy thinking that the news channel was now talking about the folder he sent to them.Felix was also announced on the news as the one who brought the truth to light.Sultan looked away from the phone and Felix had thoug
"How could you?! How could you drive her into this?! Get off me! I knew you will always be nothing but pain to me! You took away my only happiness!" Sultan yelled at his mother who was tugging at the tip of his trouser.He hated his mother, not just for letting Laila fall victim to an accident but also failing to give him a normal childhood right from the moment Lorenzo was his father.Lorenzo had always treated Sultan like he was worth nothing and the most that his mother had ever done was to travel to a different country with Sultan. She had never once stood up for him or comforted him since his early age and now, the daughter he found joy in was at the brink of death."I'm so sorry Sultan." Mrs Lorenzo said, sitting on the floor and crying."You better pray that nothing happens to her or else it will mark your end. I swear I will kill you." Sultan threatened his mother with bloodshot eyes.Mrs Lorenzo felt her heart skip a beat. Looking into Sultan's eyes, she knew he was serious a
