A surge of huge jealousy errupted in Rick's heart as he saw how lovingly Eva talked about him. "Eva... d... do you like him?"
"Huh?" Eva raised her eyebrows and looked at him in much surprise.
"I.... I am sorry, but I just wanted to confirm. I hope there is nothing in between you both except this fake marriage." Rick asked as his heart was now beating rapidly. He was too nervous about the girl's reply.
Eva looked at him in much surprise, holding the fork in her hand, as if she was a statue. "D... Do I like him?" She repeated Rick's words as if thinking about it carefully.
Rick too raised his eyebrows looking at her confused face. "Why do you have to think so much about it? Eva... d.. do you love him?"
Eva blinked several times as if coming out of a deep trance. Suddenly she was reminded of the time that she had called up Troy and there was another girl with him. "Heck no! I was surprised that why are you even aski

Even though you are a warrior princess and can fight your own battles, but you need a faithful companion to give you equal amount of love that your parents have showered you with." Troy continued to speak his heart out looking in her eyes. Eva's eyes went moist as she heard the boy's words. "Why do you always know how to speak the most accurate thing. You always know what I want and what I want to hear." Troy looked at Eva in much longing, while Eva kept looking at him in much thankfulness. "We have a special connect from the beginning.

Troy was finally discharged from the hospital though he still had mild pain in his head and back. They both had shifted to the castle. This time Troy had decided to be a little more careful and clever. He could not let Diana kill him or Eva. He used to keep an eye on Diana's every move now and was tracking all the places she visited. He was currently sitting in the balcony of his room, when his cell phone buzzed.

The two cars were now parked at the extreme corner of the road and hidden with a few tree branches. The four of them were now rapidly walking on the straight road, when Troy saw a gigantic boundary wall with a huge white colored gate. "This mansion is huge." "Yes sir. It is indeed. We will have to climb the gate and enter it. Since the alarm bells are off, they would not know anything." Spoke up a guy as he took out a black colored rope from his backpack. The other man took out a camera, while the third man took out a tiny gun. Soon they halted outside the gigantic gate, and one of the men threw the hooked rope at the top of the gigantic gate, making it fix in one hook. Soon they all were climbing the gate with the help of the rope and turn by turn jumped inside the premises. Troy looked to his left and then to his right, and could see well maintained lawns and a water fountain in extreme corner. "I hope they don't have ferocious dogs." The

The lady's back was towards Troy and she was holding a thick walking stick in her hand. Troy took deep breaths, stepping a little away from the fat lady. The lady's back was towards him, and seemed to have just stepped out of the shower. Her white hair were left open, while she wore a long white colored expensive looking dress. Troy could not see her face, but noticed only her thick looking glasses. The lady looked like she was in her seventies and pretty feeble. Troy further took a few steps back and noticed the lady picking up a cell phone from a drawer. Her hands were shivering from weakness, but yet she looked determined to dial the number. Troy in the meanwhile took a few more steps backwards, trying to notice the lady's face. He hid behind a gigantic couch, and popped out his neck so that he could see the lady. He managed to see her face and was a little raken aback by the amount of makeup she had done. Her face was extremely wrinkled and her hands

After he had collected enough evidence, he was about to walk away when he spotted a minute lock next to a painting, across the hall. "This looks so mich similar to the lock in the palace. I have to see what is inside it." Troy yet again turned to look at the sleeping beauty and then slowly started to walk towards the door.He had just crossed half of the distance when suddenly he saw a man standing in front of him. He seemed to have just arrived the house and was holding a large suitcase in his hand."Ermmm.... Hi..."

"But why will she hide it from Diana?" The bodyguard frowned in confusion looking at Troy who was further looking at the ppaers in the almirah."I don't know. But she has amassed quite an amount of wealth by using Diana's position. This almirah is full of diamonds. I think, she is using Diana for the wealth and that is why she must not have told her." Troy frowned a bit looking at several contract papers."Maybe she knows she is adopted and that is why is grateful to her adoptive mother." The bodyguard kept several more papers in his bag, being handed over by Troy."Maybe... but considering Diana's cruel heart she would never be grateful tiwards anyone." Troy smirked as he further looked at a few papers. "Look this paper is a medical document of when King Edward died." Troy frowned as he dusted off the papers.
