It's been a month since Ivy and Jason were sent home. In this one month, Ivy started to feel lonely and strangely she found herself thinking about Nikolai more often than she liked. So many things have changed in her life in this one week. She was promoted as the team lead in the designer department. A new manager replaced Josh. Now Ivy is heading the hundred million project which they won in the recent competition. And the new manager of the designer department is surprisingly sweet. Her colleagues who previously used to taunt and bully her are being more respectful and cautious around her, at least most of them. And there is also an unpleasant addition in her team, that is Catherine. Until Catherine started working in the company, Ivy didn't know that she was Nikolai's fiancee. For some reason, it made Ivy feel empty inside. Despite being back home, she was feeling more miserable than when she was in the Knight mansion. Their parents deadth anniversary came and went. Nikolai donate
Nikolai carried Ivy inside his cabin on the top floor. From the design department to the top floor, so many employees, directors, managers and shareholders saw him carrying Ivy in his arms. Everyone who saw this was frozen with shock. Their cold and indifferent boss who refused to touch just anyone is now making an effort to carry a woman in his arms. Ivy became a known name in the company after they beat the Nina's in the competition. 'Look, isn't it the new designer?''Oh my, our Boss is carrying our new designer ''They look cute together ''Thank god boss chose this sweet girl. That Catherine is nasty''What? How did she even manage this?' Everyone had mixed reactions after they watched the scene.But Nikolai never cared about what others think. Ivy kept looking at him. So many things are running in her mind that she didn't notice the strange looks they were getting. Nikolai gently made her sit on the couch in his huge cabin. There is a glass table placed in the center of the r
"I am s..." Ivy couldn't finish her sentence. Because Nikolai pulled her into him and crashed his lips to hers. Their first kiss. He didn't kiss anyone before her, and she didn't kiss anyone either. He never had this urge to kiss anyone before. But with Ivy, everything is different. He wants to own her, he wants to claim her as his own, which is not possible.His kiss is not gentle. It's rough and demanding. She found herself consumed by his kiss. He nipped at her lips and tasted every inch of her mouth and devoured her as if she was his last last meal. His arms wandered all around her body, touching and feeling her soft feminine curves. He kissed her until her lips were swollen. When he is sure he can control himself and will not take her body then and there, he pulled back and touched his forehead with hers. He is not a fool. It's clear that he likes Ivy. But too bad, they cannot be together. There are too many things coming in between them. It's better for her sanity and safety t
On the other hand, in Nina's Mansion.'I know what you and your friends did ten years ago. I wonder what the media would think about this if I share these proofs with them. I am sure the Knight prince would bury you alive if he finds out that you killed his parents. You guys forgot to tamper with one surveillance camera which recorded almost everything.'Stevenson read the message as sweat started trickling down his forehead. His heart beat accelerated and he is as pale as a sheet. He received this text that morning. He wanted to brush it off as spam. But he couldn't. Because no one knows about what happened ten years ago. He tried calling that number, but the call didn't connect. So he texted the number instead.'Who are you? What do you want?' he texted back anxiously.He didn't receive a reply for a while. Stevenson's anxiety started to grown. "Who is it? Did the others receive the same kind of texts?" he thought to himself. Fear paralyse one's thinking ability, Just like it did
It's been a while since Stevenson sat behind a wheel. He was always driven around by a driver if he ever wanted to go out. But today he didn't want to risk exposing the secret which they buried ten years ago. His arms are shaking and he is unable to handle the high end car he was currently driving. The wheels screeched, and whirled uncontrollably as he drove like a maniac to reach his destination faster. His unskilled driving and the horse power of the vehicle were the worst combination. What he didn't know was that, Nikolai's men tampered with the car in such a way that, the fuel tank will catch fire and his car will blow up into smoke before blasting and burning into ashes.Not too soon, the sparks from the friction of his tires caused a chain reaction and helped to give momentum to Nikolai's plan. His fuel tank caught fire, which Stevenson was unaware of until smoke started coming inside the car and suffocating him. The car came to a sudden stop right in the middle of the intersec
Ivy is seeing and hearing things which are not there around her. The moment she saw Stevenson being carried out inside an ambulance, her mind started to play tricks on her again. Her mental trauma from the past started acting up. This time she saw that Stevenson suddenly opened his eyes and stepped out of the tv screen to hurt her."No, don't hurt me. Go away" she cried with alarm and panic. She rushed inside the kitchen and picked up a knife to protect herself from Stevenson.After her breakdown the previous night, Jason decided to stay back with her. He was sleeping on the floor in her room. When he heard her screams, he woke up with a start. He rushed out of the bedroom and saw Ivy holding a knife and swinging it wildly in the air while screaming not to come closer."Ivy doll, what happened?" Jason tried to approach her, but she sliced the air in front of him with her knife. The knife missed his face by a hair's breath. Immediately Jason backed off, understanding that she is having
In a very reputed hospital in the city, Richard , Samuel Simpson, William, Catherine and Stevenson's wife were sitting outside the Intensive care unit where Stevenson was placed. As Stevenson's health is in a very critical condition, he is placed under the ventilation support. "I don't know why dad decided to drive by himself" Richard said out loud, thinking about what might have provoked his father to do something like this which is out of character for him.Samuel is shocked too. He couldn't comprehend why Stevenson asked him to meet in their usual spot. It's been a while since they last met there. "Uncle Samuel, dad last spoke with you before he left last night. Did he tell you anything?" Richard asked Samuel when he remembered about the call his father made the previous night. Untill that moment Samuel didn't tell anyone that Stevenson was coming to meet him. Samuel's frown becomes deeper and William looks at his brother for his explanation. He too remembered that his brother r
Ivy found herself standing in the middle of the living room of a posh two storey villa in a high end but secluded area. There is one other house beside the house which was gifted to her. Apart from these two villas which are constructed side by side, there is no other home in this area. The two villas which are named as 'Twin pearls' are surrounded by lush greenery on both the sides, while a river is flowing behind the villa. There is a backyard connecting both the villas, through which the river can be accessed. "Jason, are you sure this is my house now?" Ivy asked, still reeling with surprise. It's been a few day since her episode. After she woke up, Philip and Jason greeted her. They realised that this time she forgot everything that happened in the last two weeks. She forgot everything about Jason's proposal as well. She forgot the day when Catherine was fired and Nikolai kissed her. She forgot the day when she realised that she is in love with Nikolai.Nikolai decided to shift h
After three years...Nikolai and Ivy were relaxing outside their family vacation home. Their two year old daughter is seen playing with Noah, who is all too happy to indulge her every whim. She is the apple of Noah's eyes. The fact that she resembles a lot like Ivy added a lot to his pampering. He will not say no to anything she asked of him. "I am happy" Nikolai confessed out of the blue" Ivy gave him a surprised look. "I never thought I would be able to find someone who would understand me the way you do. You share my past and my pain. You never judged me for my actions. You supported me in everything I did. But the feeling of revenge will keep a fire of anger burning inside you. What we never realise is, that fire will burn us as well. I never had a peaceful day before I kidnapped you. I ran after my past to avenge my parents. Life was filled with bitterness and anger. But now, it's filled with love and laughter. Because of you. I am so happy that I kidnapped you that day" Niko
Ten years ago.... In the Knight mansion... "What? Forgive him? Samuel, have you looked at what William did to his wife? He killed her. How can anyone forgive a monster like him?" Nikolai's mother demanded angrily. Samuel is not happy to hear this. "We are friends. Let's just forget all that and get back to normal" Samuel suggested and tried to use the friend card. Nikolai's mother shook her head with displeasure and sadness. "She was my friend too Samuel. And she begged me to help her. What did she do to deserve such a fate? I am not letting him go. He has to be punished" she insisted. Samuel lost his cool. He looked at Nikolai's father for help, but he didn't get any. It's clear that Mr. Knight is supporting his wife. "So be it" with that said, Samuel slapped Nikolai's mother hard across her face. She stumbled and fell down on the floor. Nikolai's father lunged at Samuel, but Coco and Mills appeared from nowhere and grabbed him from behind. "You brought this upon yourself"
After Nikolai and Ivy left, Coco was scared half to death. He was standing on the thin and narrow ledge while Rattle snakes were hissing just a few feet underneath him. To his horror, those snakes are not content in staying there. They are crawling up the wall and on to the ledge where he was standing. He tried to scare the snakes away. And he succeeded a few times before one of the snakes refused to leave the ledge. It started coming closer and closer to him. In his haste to move out of the way, he tumbled and fell onto the floor where so many snakes are there. The moment he fell, all the snakes bit him at once for scaring them and hurting them. "Ahh..." "No.." "Help..." Coco tried to pull himself over to the ledge again, but was unable to do so as he started to lose control over his limbs. His limbs started to go numb and paralysed within minutes. He fell back over the snakes once again. But this time he found himself unable to move. He is still alive, but he couldn't move. Not
In the warehouse, Coco is restrained to a chair. Despite being at the mercy of Nikolai Knight, he was looking very smug and happy. He is a very cunning man who can twist any kind of situation to his advantage. Just like how he did it with Nikolai. The previous day, when Nikolai came to see if he came back to his conscience, Coco started to sow seeds of discord and doubts against Ivy. Twenty four hours ago... 'You don't know what Ivy is like. She is not right in her head. Jason knows it better. That chip tampered with her mind and made her insane. What would happen if her mind becomes unstable in the future? Do you want to risk it?' Coco started his manipulation. Nikolai was quiet, not speaking a single word. When Nikolai was silent, Coco thought that Nikolai was buying his words. 'We had to admit her with a shrink so that she could feel better. There were days when she would even forget to do basic things like taking a bath and eating. You lost your family, are you willing to mar
When the beauticians were finished, Ivy looked extremely beautiful. Just as beautiful as a bride. The blue diamond studded necklace is both subtle and elegant, matching with the earrings. Ivy never dreamt about how she would look as a bride. But now, looking at herself in the mirror, she wouldn't have imagined her better than this. "This would complete the look" with those words, a veil was draped over her head, surprising Ivy. Now she is looking like a bride who is about to be married in a moment. Ivy is confused. All of this started as a dress trial, where she ended up like a bride instead. "Luna..." Ivy turned to ask Luna what was going on, but she noticed belatedly that Luna is no longer in the room and even the beauticians are leaving. No one gave Ivy a chance to think more about what is happening around her. Instead, Noah walked inside the room in his tux and his hair combed back neatly. He trimmed his beard and moustache. He is looking younger and better than how she r
After taking away Coco under the guise of attempted Suicide, they made it look like Coco's condition is not stable. They arranged a dead body which resembled a bit like Coco, but a bit darker in colour. The doctors already lied to Coco's wife that Coco's body turned dark due to the kind of poison he took and she believed him. After a couple of hours, they will declare that he died and will keep the body in the morgue for an autopsy, as it was a suicide case. After the autopsy they will bandage the body after that so that no one could recognise that the dead body doesn't belong to Coco. On the other hand, the real Coco is in Nikolai's warehouse. Still unconscious after drinking the spiked juice Ivy gave him. In the meantime, Nikolai looked very content for the first time in ten years. His heart was not chaotic and demanding to see the blood of those people who killed his parents. He is relaxed without the burden of his revenge weighing him down. "What are we doing here?" Richard a
Coco was feeling sad after Jason was taken away to an asylum. His wife was not pleased, but he couldn't do anything. "So much money and so many connections. But now, nothing is useful. No one can bring my son's sanity back" he thought sadly to himself. He vaguely heard the front door of his home being opened and closed. But he didn't give it any mind. He is not happy with the recent events. Until a voice greeted him. The voice of the person whom he heard almost a decade ago. "Long time no see Carlos" Noah spoke up, startling Coco. Immediately Coco snapped out of his daze and looked at the man who was supposed to be in an asylum, but somehow was standing inside his home. "Noah? You? How did you come here? Did you escape from the asylum?" he inquired with shock. Noah smirked. "Why should I run away? I am not mentally retarded in the first place, am I?" Noah asked with a smile and made himself comfortable on the couch. Coco wheeled his wheelchair closer to Noah. He still couldn't
"I still can't believe that Carlos and Jason did all that. I used to feel like, Jason is the most genuine person and I was very happy that he was there to take care of you when I couldn't. To hear that they did all this and manipulated us to this extent, it's shocking" Noah spoke up after a long silence. After the initial fear and anxiety that made Noah almost paralysed with how petrified he was in Nikolai's presence, he recovered slowly. The funny banter between Richard, Nikolai, Philip, Shawn and Bryan made his anxiety go down a little. And when Ivy reprimanded all of them and asked them to get out, they all obeyed without another word. After they left, Noah relaxed even more. The fact that his daughter has the authority to command the most feared man in the city and he simply obeyed made him assured that things are not as bad as he assumed them to be initially. After that, Ivy showed him to his room where she filled the wardrobe with new clothes for him to wear. He took a showe
"Facility? You mean an asylum?" Coco asked with shock. Philip nodded his head gravely. "It's for his own good Mr. Carlos. If he is not treated immediately, no one can tell what he would do and whom he would hurt in the future. He just assaulted you today. He might kill you tomorrow if he is not treated properly. His condition will only deteriorate from here. It's not safe for you, or anyone in your home. If he manages to get out of the house, he might even hurt a passer-by. It will only give you unnecessary headaches. I am sure no one would want a potential lawsuit on their heads" Philip thoroughly scared Coco. Coco is conflicted. Jason is his only son and the heir of his fortune. He cannot possibly send him to an asylum. Ivy saw the hesitation on his face. It's clear that he doesn't want to send his son to an asylum. 'He readily trapped my father in a mental institution, and was ready to send me there as well. But now he doesn't want to send his son? What a joke. I was someone's
