Adam wanted to leave that place which he is sure is not safe for them. But the apron of some unfortunate woman peeking from under the trunk of the van is raising a conflict between his sub conscience and his logical side. They were already hunted by Christian and his men like dogs. He is not an idiot. He can guess that Christian might have already found out that it's him who is taking Kelly away. Christian must have dug into Kelly's details and he must have already know that he is her boyfriend. It wouldn't take long for a man like Christian to match two and two together. So it's wise not to attract any sort of attention towards Kelly or himself. But he is reluctant to leave, especially after Kelly pointed out what that woman might face once she was taken inside that factory. "Alright, you stay here and hide in that alley. No matter what don't come out. I will go and save that woman. Ok?" Adam Instructed Kelly while pointing at the dark alley which looked dirty and littered with tra
Nikolai reached the area which is fairly far away from the city and where there are many factories and warehouses located. This place can cover up murders, as the noise from the factories will mute the screaming of the person even when he is being killed. He looked at the two bodyguards who were shot dead when they tried to rescue Ivy. He can imagine what must have transpired here. The tire marks of both cars is showing that the bodyguards tried to block the kidnappers, but were shot. Nikolai leaned closer and noticed that one of the bodyguards still has a pulse near his neck. It's weak, but it's there. "Shawn, he is alive. Send him to the hospital. Tell our men to thoroughly search this area. Ivy is here somewhere " Nikolai said and they started searching the area. Nikolai left no stone unturned to search for Ivy. He called upon dozens of his men to search the area. He also noticed that the kidnappers vehicle was right infront of the car of Ivy's bodyguards. But the bullet which
In the dumpster, Ivy came in and out of conscience. She could vaguely hear the heavy footsteps and then the overwhelming smell. "Ah..." She moaned softly. Her head is pounding and her mouth feels dry. She is still unable to get a hold of her surroundings. She is in a state of confusion. Suddenly she felt two pairs of arms pulling her out of wherever she was. She couldn't make out the two figures who are eying her with worry. She is unable to recall how and why she came here. Soon, her eyes became heavy and she passed out. "Adam, looks like she was given a higher dose of Chloroform so that she wouldn't make any trouble. We need to take her to a hospital immediately. If not, it's hazardous to her health" Kelly spoke with urgency. She was a medical student in her senior year before she was kidnapped by Christian and ruined her life after that. Adam is frowning deeply. "Kelly, you know we don't have money for even our food. Any moreover, a hospital is a place where we can be fou
In the hospital, Richard was proclaimed to be out of danger by the doctors. But a couple of his ribs are broken and one of his ankles is fractured. "Thank the lord that you are safe my son. What would happen to me if something had to happen to you?" Richard's mother, Sandra Nina cried softly from beside his hospital bed. Richard tried to give her a weak assuring smile. "I am fine mom" he whispered. His voice sounded croaky and rusty. Sandra sighed heavily still reeling from the trauma of the accident. "I am sorry mom. You must be feeling terrible especially after the back to back accidents of me and dad" Richard spoke weakly, feeling how much her mother must have been scared. Sandra is quiet. Truth be told, she was happy when she heard about Stevenson's accident. He was not a good man, and a very bad husband. He never used to lay his hands on her, but he used to subject her to mental torture. He was never a loyal husband. He always used to threaten her saying that he woul
In that abandoned godown, Ivy slowly came back to her senses after Thirty six hours. Slowly she opened her eyes and stared blankly at the dirty ceiling which is filled with cobwebs and black sooth. Her mind is yet to catch up with what happened to her. She raised her hand to touch her head which is feeling heavy. She noticed her throat which is so dry, that it's aching. Physical discomfort is the first thing she noticed. The hard surface upon which she is lying on. Her body aches. And then her gaze slowly took in her surroundings. She noticed a woman lying on the floor beside a man. They both were sleeping. She didn't recognise them at all. She sat up slowly and winced at the discomfort in her head and body. Her body is stiff and it's aching. She felt thirsty. She looked around and noticed a half filled water bottle. She stood up to her feet and stumbled a little before she found her footing. She grabbed the bottle and finished the bottle in one go. As the water went down her dry
Nikolai looks as if he hasn't been eating or sleeping well for a few days now. And he is not. He is relentlessly searching for Ivy, who disappeared into the thin air. William died last night, unable to bear the pain and the blood loss. Samuel suffered a heart stroke and lost his life when he saw life leaving his brother's eyes. Both the brothers lost their lives with regret and fear. Nikolai on the other hand is wearing the same clothes which he was wearing on the day Ivy was kidnapped. His jacket and tie were missing. The buttons on the top of his dress shirt are undone and his sleeves are folded over his forearm. His shirt and pants have blood splattered all over them. The usually clean shaven Nikolai Knight who never liked to have a hair out of place is now dishelved. He has beard growing on his face, which gave him a dangerous edge. His eyes are blood shot and his knuckles are bloody from punching William with his bare hands. They also found and captured the four men who help
"Nikolai Knight?" Two voices echoed at once. Adam jumped to his feet while Kelly looked at Ivy with wide eyes. Ivy is confused by their reaction. They look stunned, but not aggressive. Ivy gave them a confused stare. "Do you mean the same Nikolai Knight who is the CEO of the Knight group?" Adam asked with a stunned surprise. Ivy nodded her head, not understanding why both Adam and Kelly looked pleased and a little happy too. "That means, you are the same designer whose designs were plagiarised by Hudson?" Kelly started to connect the dots. She heard that Christian was targeting the Knight group and the woman Nikolai seems to be interested in. Christian was targeting that designer who later saved the knight group by making a fool out of Hudson. Ivy nodded again, not understanding where this is going. Kelly and Adam looked at each other. "Do you think the men outside are Christian's men?" Kelly asked him, trying to figure out if it was Christian who kidnapped Ivy.
"Nikolai " She whispered to herself with relief and happiness. She ignored everything and everyone and she jumped to her feet to go out to find Nikolai. Adam and Kelly looked stupefied for a moment when they saw Ivy running out of their hiding place. "Ivy, stop" Adam reacted first and ran after her. Kelly followed after him. 'Ivy' Nikolai's voice now sounded a little closer, which raised Ivy's hope. She ran outside the godown, while Adam urging her to stop. "Ivy, stop" Adam caught up to her and stopped her by holding her elbow. Ivy is looking in the direction where she is hearing Nikolai's voice with longing. "Adam, let me go. Nikolai is here" she spoke with urgency. Adam is scared and he is looking around them to check if someone is coming. "Ivy, don't be stupid. What if the man calling you is not Mr. Knight? What if it's Christian who is trying to lure you out of your hiding place?" Adam tried to reason with her. Kelly rushed to where they are and looked at thei
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
