“Mr. Allen, I'm here with everything you asked for.” Josh, Rayan’s head of security, knocked on his office’s door before entering.

“Have a seat.” Rayan nodded before offering to sit opposite him.

“It's okay. Here.” Josh nodded back before placing a pendrive on Rayan’s desk. Rayan took the pen drive before inserting it into his laptop. It's been around a week since the day Noah revealed the shocking truth. After his confrontation with Anthea, he had been completely ignoring her presence. He needed space to cope with the hurt and betrayal he felt because of her action.

“Noah met Asher.” Rayan narrowed his eyes when he looked at the content on the pen drive. Throughout the whole week, he had been investigating and planning out how to take down all of his enemies. He already had enough.

“Yes. They met on Tuesday afternoon.” Josh nodded, confirming his question.

“Did you track his location?” Rayan asked, his eyes focused on the laptop screen as he scanned every detail.

“Yes. He's sta

    After reaching the Allen mansion, Rayan carried Anthea into their bedroom before placing her gently on the bed. Anthea was about to say something when Rayan’s phone rang, cutting her off. “Yes, Josh.” Rayan answered the call. “Mr. Allen, I have bad news.” Josh’s voice carried a sense of anxiety, making Rayan frown. “What happened?” He inquired, glancing at Anthea and then excusing himself. “Asher kidnapped your daughter from her daycare.” Josh quickly informed Rayan, causing Rayan’s expression to change drastically. “What!” Rayan froze. “How the fuck did this happen? Where’s my daughter now?” He growled in rage, his heart rate picking up because of fear. “We are trying to track him down. Don't worry. We won't let anything happen to her.” Josh tried to assure him while barking orders at his subordinates at the same time. “I'm going to kill that bastard if he dares to lay a single finger on my daughter.” Rayan gritted out, looking completely livid. “He is still in town.

    “What are you two doing here?” Aurelia glared at Sarah and Camilla as soon as they walked into the living room of Jones mansion. “Why? Can't we come for a visit?” Camilla chuckled, trying to hide her nervousness. She had no choice but to come here to ask for their help. That bitch really threw them out of the Allen Estate and now they have no place to go. “Really?” Aurelia scoffed, feeling amused at her blatant lie. “What?” Camilla cleared her throat while gripping her clothes tightly. Did Aurelia see through her facade? No, no! How would she know about it?“Judging from your clothes, I can tell that bitch Anthea finally threw you out of the Allen estate.” Aurelia chuckled as she looked at them from head to toe. Camilla would never step out of the house looking like that. She would always dress extravagantly wherever she went and Sarah was just like her mother. Right now, both of them looked like homeless buggers. “What nonsense are you speaking, Aurelia? Where are your parents?”

    "Anthea, you need to eat something, please.” Emilia sighed as she sat beside Anthea while holding a plate of food. It's been more than eight hours since Nevaeh was kidnapped, and since then, Anthea has been going completely crazy. “No! I won't touch a single food until my daughter returns.” Anthea pushed the plate of food while weeping silently. “Please, Anthea.” Emilia requested. She was getting worried about Anthea’s condition too. She came to visit her as soon as she heard the news.“How can I eat when my baby is nowhere to be found? I don't even know if she ate or not. I have no idea how those people are treating my baby, Emi.” Anthea snapped, tears streaming down her face. Her heart clenched in pain the moment she thought about her daughter. “Nevaeh would be fine, Anthea. Rayan and Roman wouldn't let anything happen to her.” Emilia tried to assure her, knowing very well what her cousin was going through at this moment. “I don't know, Emi. I just want my baby back.

    “Noah!” Anthea smiled, looking at her brother, who was peeking at her bedroom door. “You asked for me.” Noah cleared his throat before hesitantly stepping inside. “Yeah. Please come in.” Anthea tried to smile at him more while calling him inside. “Sit here.” She instructed him, patting the seat next to her after he stepped inside and reached her bed. “How is your leg?” Noah sighed as he looked at her leg, which was wrapped in a bandage and placed on a pillow. “Great! But I still can't walk.” Anthea chuckled, trying to lift his sullen face. She knew what was going on inside her brother’s head. He might have done those things and spoken harshly that day because of his rage, but that wasn't the whole of him. Her brother was kind and gentle from the inside out. She had faith in both her and her father’s upbringing. “You will be fine.” Noah barely smiled, touching her legs gently. “Yeah!” Anthea nodded. A moment of silence passed as they both struggled with their own thoughts. Anthe

    In the Jones Corporation,Sebastian Jones was talking to his father, discussing the recent evenings regarding the Allen Corporation. As expected, Rayan really decided to turn his back on the Jones and land attacks. “Mr Jones. I have terrible news!” A man burst into Sebastian's office without knocking. His face had a terrified expression on it. “Did you forget how to knock?” Sebastian snapped, narrowing his eyes on the man. Seeing his infuriated face, the man gulped nervously. “I apologise, but it's really important. You have to see this.” The man urged, his eyes flashing with panic and anxiety. “What happened, Adam?” Derek asked, frowning at the man’s expression. He knew Adam wouldn't do this if it wasn't really urgent. “See this!” The man rushed towards Sebastian before handing him some papers. Sebastian took the papers before reading them. His face visibly darkened as he read the content of the papers. It was a legal notice. “What happened, Sebastian?” Derek asked, looking qui

    “Mr Allen, Ms Morin!” Joseph Wilson greeted Anthea and Rayan, looking quite shocked by their presence. “It's Mrs Allen.” Anthea corrected him with a fake smile. “What are you doing here?” Derek asked, narrowing his eyes at Anthea and Rayan. Sebastian clenched his fists, his eyes shifting on Anthea from Rayan. There was a flash of hatred in those cold eyes before it was gone. “How can you arrange a board meeting without the most important shareholders?” Rayan raised his eyes at Derek, his eyes hinting at mockery. “What?” Miranda gasped, looking shocked with his words. “How can Mr Allen be an important shareholder?” Michael asked, looking confused. “That's because I own the Allen Corporation now.” Rayan smirked, walking towards Derek and Sebastian, with Anthea following him. “What?” A old man gasped in surprise. “What about Mr Benjamin Allen?” Anthony asked, looking relatively calm. “What the hell!” Michael shouted while standing up from the seat.

    “Mr. Sebastian bribed those four government officials to get approval for the project. He also involved those underground illegal mafias in the project. He took the bride from them and helped them with their illegal business. He is also involved in money laundering and fraud. Hence, he's completely unsuitable to be the CEO of the company. LH and the Allen Corporation are already in the process of filing a lawsuit against him and the Jones Corporation.” Shawn finally concluded after presenting all the allegations and proof in front of all the board of directors and share holders. The room fell into agonizing silence until Derek cursed out in rage. He was about to completely lose his sense after Rayan’s lawyer unraveled everything in front of everyone. Right in that moment, he knew he and his company were gone. Nothing could be done anymore, but he couldn't just sit still. He had to do something to protect his company. “That's fucking bullshit.” Derek shouted, seething at Rayan angril

    After taking the shower and wearing her previous undergarments, she slowly opened the bathroom door to see if he had kept the dress outside or not. There wasn't any sign of her dress or anything she could wear. Rayan wasn't anywhere as well. A teasing smile appeared on her face. She was sure that he did it deliberately. At first, Anthea thought of walking out while wrapping the towel around her, but then decided against it. He wouldn't be surprised by it. She closed the door and looked around the bathroom when her eyes caught a glimpse of one of his white shirts. Without giving it a second thought, she took the shirt and put it on. It reached her lower thigh because of their height differences. He was six feet three, while she was five feet six. She looked in the mirror and saw that her black lacy bra was visible like daylight through the transparent white shirt. It made her smirk. “I should have brought something more sexy." She muttered to herself while checking herself in the m

    "Why are we here, Rayan?" Anthea asked the moment she realised where Rayan had brought her! This was the place she dreaded coming to the most.Her father’s grave! Anthea’s mind went blank just thinking of this place. She had never visited this place in the last six years. She just couldn’t go there. Never. It had given her so many memories, sorrows, and pains, along with happiness. "Just trust me, please, baby.""But Rayan, you know I can't." Anthea shook her head; her voice sounded broken and vulnerable. Rayan quickly hugged her, rubbing her back to calm her down. "I know it's hard. But you have to be strong. You are strong. It's high time, Anthea; you need to let this heartbreak go and confront your fear. He's waiting for you, baby," Rayan encouraged while caressing her hair lightly. "You know I can't. It's too painful. I just can't face him, Rayan. How am I going to answer him? He's mad at me, I'm sure. Anthea let out a sob as tears slowly started to fall from her eyes. "Don't

    “How did it go?” Anthea asked anxiously as soon as Rayan stepped into the living room. He smiled at her before pulling her into a tight hug. “Everything went well. I have already submitted all the evidence and they are taking the case directly to the court. He wouldn't be able to escape this time.” He answered while burying his face in the crook of his neck, trying to relax. Anthea let out a sigh of relief. “Thank god! You should have taken me with you.” She expressed it heartily while hugging her arms around Rayan’s back. “No! I don't want his dirty eyes to land on you, even for a second. I will take care of everything from here while you just stay here and take care of Nevaeh and our family.” Rayan raised his head and shook it before speaking. Anthea sighed again, totally understanding his concern. “I'm glad finally it's over with the Jones and we can relax.” Anthea smiled, changing the subject as they broke the hug while walking towards the couch. No one was present in the livi

    Sebastian just got out of his car and was about to enter the Jones Corporation when a few men walked towards him before blocking his path. “Mr Jones.” One of the men called him before flashing him his ID card. Sebastian, who was surprised by the sudden unwanted visit, looked at the ID card of the man and realised they were from the Central Bureau of Investigation. “What brings you here, Officer?” Sebastian asked, trying to smile politely at them, but deep down he already had an ominous feeling rising inside his chest. “You are under arrest. Please raise your arms and cooperate with us.” The officer announced this loudly, grabbing some passersby’s attention who let out visible gasps while witnessing the scene. Sebastian was quite startled too, as he didn't expect some CBI officer to suddenly appear and tell him that he was being arrested. “What?” He looked at the officer in confusion, not understanding what was going on. “Handcuff him.” The officer ignored his words as he gestured

    After the dinner ended, everyone was sitting around and casually chatting when Roman got up from his seat before walking towards Rayan, who was talking to Elijah. “Can I talk to you for a few minutes?” Roman asked Rayan after reaching him. He excused himself from Elijah before nodding politely at Roman. “Of course.” He answered, making Roman nod. Elijah excused himself before giving them some space to talk. “Let's go somewhere quiet.” Roman offered, making Rayan nod. They were about to walk out of the VIP dining lounge when Anthea’s sudden voice stopped them. “Where are you two going?” She asked, looking at them with a frown. Rayan was about to answer her when Roman beat him to it. “Smoking!” Rayan blurted out while trying to cover something from Anthea. The moment the answer left his mouth, Anthea’s eyes narrowed as she looked at her husband with a scowl. “Rayan! I told you to quit smoking.” She glared at him, looking totally pissed. Rayan sighed as he looked at her angry expre

    “Anthea, Rayan!” Athena greeted her enthusiastically as soon as Anthea, Rayan, and Nevaeh stepped into the private dining room. “Hey!” Anthea smiled while walking towards her, while Rayan stayed behind her, holding Nevaeh. “We were waiting for you!” Athena said, smiling heartily. Anthea smiled back, her eyes shifting to Roman, Elijah, and Emilia, who were already sitting on the chairs. Emilia waved her hand slightly when she met Anthea’s gaze. “Oh my God! Is that our little princess?" Athena exclaimed in joy when she caught sight of Nevaeh, who was walking beside her father, looking like an angel. Athena was totally awestruck by the sight of Nevaeh. “Yeah!” Anthea nodded with a chuckle, while Rayan smiled. “Nevaeh, say hi to your uncles and aunts." Anthea turned around before instructing Nevaeh with a smile. She looked at her mother before looking at Athena, who was still looking at her with a smile. “Hi!” She grinned shyly while trying to hide behind her father. Rayan let out a

    “You didn't tell me you were coming here.” Rayan asked in surprise when he met Anthea in the hallway of the hospital. He was just returning after checking in with his father. He thought she would be going to the office directly after meeting Silas. “Because I knew I would find you here.” Anthea replied with a barely visible smile on her face. Rayan already noticed her dim expression, causing him to frown in concern. “Is everything okay?” He asked, walking towards her before holding her hand. Anthea glanced at him before nodding her head slightly. “Yeah. How is Mr. Allen?” She asked, trying to change the subject. Rayan also realised it but said nothing. He quietly followed her back to the VIP ward. “Better than before. He will be moved to the general word tonight after they did some last inspection.” He replied while intertwining his hands with her. “That's good news.” Anthea nodded, a genuine smile spreading across her lips at the good news. It didn't even pass 48 hours and his c

    “You know where. How could you forget what you went through because of him? If it wasn't for family and me, Silas didn't finish his sentence and stopped midway when he noticed Anthea's eyes glaring sharply at him.“So you really think that just because you helped me in my darkest phase, you have some sort of right over me?” Anthea asked, her eyes flashing with coldness at the sudden realisation. “Anthea!” Silas uttered, looking at her with a blank expression. Anthea couldn't read what was running inside her head but at the moment, she barely cared. “Answer me, Silas. Is that what you think?” Anthea pressed further, her expression remaining the same. At that moment, she was sure about one thing: Rayan didn't lie or misunderstand anything. It was she who was blind and delusional. She couldn't see the truth, which was already before her eyes. “Did Rayan tell you this?” Silas suddenly asked back, his expression hardening. He didn't expect that son of a bitch, Rayan, to vomit every sin

    “Drop me at this address.” Anthea said this while showing Rayan an address on her phone. “Why? You are not going to the office?” Rayan, who was driving the car, asked before taking the phone from her hand and then glancing at the address. “No. I'm going to meet Silas.” Anthea answered with a sigh. She noticed Rayan’s face hardening as soon as the words left her mouth. For a moment, he didn't say anything. “Okay. I'm going to the hospital to check on Dad. Call me if anything happens.” He nodded after a moment of silence while focusing on the road. “Okay. How is your dad?” Anthea nodded back before inquiring about Benjamin. She didn't receive any news on him from the moment she left the hospital with Silas. “He's improving.” Rayan muttered while taking a turn. The address Anthea showed him wasn't far. “I'm glad to hear that.” She sighed in relief, knowing Benjamin was getting well. She just hoped nothing bad would happen and he would eventually recover. Last night, they talked, an

    “Because Silas told me you were in his house and you were going to stay with him when he came to pick Nevaeh up.” Rayan answered, feeling angry and helpless. He shouldn't have listened to that bastard in the first place. He should have known better. “What the hell!” Anthea stared at him in shock. “You don't believe me?” Rayan’s face hardened as he noticed the disbelief in her eyes. She was unwilling to believe him, which meant she trusted that bastard over him. Anthea shook her head immediately. “No! It's not like that. Why would he say something like that?” She denied it before inquiring. Rayan’s expression changed again as he took a step back from her; however, his eyes never left her. “Because he wants to provoke me and create misunderstandings between us.” He answered while grinding his teeth. Anthea frowned as disbelief crossed her eyes. “What are you saying, Rayan? Silas would never do something like that.” She shook her head, trying to deny everything Rayan just said. Ther
