“Why did you come back?” Gloria asked nervously when David get off his car.David didn’t reply to her and was watching her movement with a scrutinizing gaze, which made her agitated.She couldn’t afford this now if David get to know about Daniel.“I got a call from Noah, we need to go to the police station. They have arrested Sasha and wanted to interrogate her. If you want to meet her, you need to leave now.” David said after some time.Gloria sighed in relief, thinking he didn’t notice Daniel.“Ok, I will reach there,” He said and was going to call her driver but David stopped her.“I am going there too. Let’s go.” Gloria hesitated first, then thinking he can find out about Daniel if he stay here long she got in his car and they drove off.When they reach the station, Noah took them inside, and the police greet her.“Hello, Miss white. You can come with us,” he informed.“Can I talk with her alone? I just need five minutes.” Gloria requested.She wanted to know why Sasha hate her.T
David was shocked after hearing Sasha’s confession.What did she mean by this?Did Lia try to frame Gloria, why would she do this?They have been always in a good relationship and even though Gloria has hated Lia after that day Lia has never badmouthed Gloria.He wanted to go after Gloria but this matter is much more important.He entered the room where Sasha was sitting and sat before her.“What did Lia tell you?” He asked with no proper introduction.“Mr. Collin.” Sasha was shocked to find him sitting before her.“You know me?” He was surprised.Though he was a prominent figure in business, he won't have a direct contract with the media, and few people know him there.How did she recognize him?“Are not you and Lia in a relationship? She said you are his boyfriend.” Sasha was surprised, too.Though she never met David his photo was on Lia’s wallpaper and Lia has mentioned many times about them.It looked like they were in a happy relationship.How could Sasha know she was just falli
Henry walked toward him with an aura of dominance and stand looking into his eyes.“I must admire your courage. You dare to stand my ground and make my child suffer? Do you think because I become old I can’t defeat you now?” Henry was trembling with anger.He has watched Gloria suffer all these years but couldn’t vent out his rage for Gloria's sake. He knew her heart would bleed if something happen to him. He didn’t want to see the disappointment in her eyes when she look at him. This child has been his bottom line and David has, again and again, crossed it.“Grandpa…” David tried to explain, but the man strike the floor with his cane.“Who is your grandpa? Do you think a snake like you have the right to call me grandpa? You dare to bite your owner and still so shameless to stand in front of me?” Henry was beyond angry to listen to his explanation.“I didn’t do anything yet because I didn’t want to hurt my grandchild. But if you dare to do so, don’t blame me for being ruthless. Henry
“What happened, David?” Lia asked with a smile but her feet were trembling though she was trying to look calm“Can I trust you?” David asked, looking at her with scrutinizing gaze,“Of course. When did I try to deceive you?” Lia asked back.“Do you know the famous Celebrity Sasha?” David asked and Lia was hesitating.Her eyes were flickering, and she was trying to look away from David, but his gaze was so penetrating she couldn’t.“Yeah, we have met on a few occasions and I often hang out with her.” Lia agreed without hesitating.She can understand now her pawn has got defeated and maybe she has exposed her to some extent.But she can’t admit her defeat so easily and let David suspect her, can she?It’s her efforts of years, and she can’t let it go in vain.“Why did you say we are in a relationship? Did I ever agree or treat you as my girlfriend?” David asked without beating around the bush.If she wanted to lie, there is no way for David to find out the truth from her behavior.So sh
In the White mansion, Gloria was lying on her bed unconscious.After Henry drove David away, he came to see her granddaughter.“Honey, please call the doctor. Her condition is worrying me.” Daina said anxiously.“I have done that,” Henry replied still with an angry look.His granddaughter is his Achilles heels and David has tried many times to step over her.This time Henry won’t let it pass even if Gloria insists.But first, he wanted to make sure Gloria was fine.The doctor came to check on her and run some simple routine tests.“Her vitals are ok. She must have fainted because of exhaustion. Let her rest for some time she would be ok.” the doctor said assuring the old couple.Diana sits beside Gloria and caresses her hair with a tender face.“Henry. We shouldn’t have brought her here. Look how tired she has become.” Diana was regretting her decision.
“I am fine, grandpa,” Gloria said but still leaned back to lie on the bed.She didn’t want to wake up this lion.“Where is Daniel?” Gloria asked Diana without looking at Henry.She was afraid he would burn her with his anger even if she meet his eyes.“He is resting in my room. He was suffering from a fever when he came back from school… Now he is good.” Diana assured her when she noticed her worried face.They know how much important Daniel is to Gloria.“I need to see him.” Gloria was getting off the bed anxiously, but Henry’s angry voice boomed in the room.“Can’t you listen to us? He is five, not you.” Henry was beyond angry, but his concern was evident in his word.This old man has lost so much in his lifetime.Even the slight scratch on Gloria or Daniel make his heart bleed.He is like a hard coconut, but his heart was soft as cotton.“But…” Gloria wanted to argue, but she looked down and fidget with her finger nervously.“He is sleeping and you can meet him when he was awake. F
“Sir, did you notice the reports? The share price is falling?” Noah asked anxiously.“I did.” David was relaxed, which made Noah confused.“How can you be so relaxed? I am getting several calls and messages from investors. They were asking for an explanation.” Noah was worried.“Call for a meeting and tell them I will explain to them tomorrow. Other than that, you don’t need to think about it.” David ordered.David was expecting this.How that old man threatened him. It was his good luck that the Collin group was still standing on its feet.But David was thinking of something else.It didn’t look like his style.It was looking like a warning rather than an act of revenge.“Do you have something in mind?” Noah asked, curiously.“Don’t you think you are getting too nosy?” David asked in a dissatisfied tone, making Noah gulp sacredly and back off.“No sir. I will do it.” Noah bowed and was ready to leave.“What happened to the task I told you? Did you manage to get a hand on Brent’s gues
“So here, start the story. You know Brent’s party?” Sasha asked, and David let her continue.“I noticed Lia there and was searching for her. When I couldn’t find her, I called her to ask if she has left?” Sasha started to tell him the story.When Sasha called Lia, she didn’t receive her call and Sasha thought she was busy so she didn’t disturb her and left the party after she meet everyone.She was on her way back her home when her phone rang and it was Lia who was calling her.Sasha received it immediately and hear Lia sobbing from the other side.“Lia, what happened?” Sasha asked worriedly.“Sasha. She has returned. She will ruin everything. I can’t lose him again.” These were the word Lia said before the call disconnected.Lia’s voice was sad, and she was drunk, too.Sasha couldn’t stop herself from worrying and run toward Lia’s apartment.Lia often used to arrange house parties so Sasha knew where she used to live.When she reached her apartment, the door was open.She worriedly e
