"But you see I am putting my shoes on the part of you family.

"Why?""Why?, You're asking me why? Huh!" Giah watched the play of colors in the older woman's face. It's either because she is pissed off or trying to control her outburst."Do you think that I would just let anyone ruin what has been planned a long time ago?" She continued."What do you mean ?" Giah anticipated that she will reveal something."Who are you, to merit my explanation. You're just a nobody working with my son.

" Someone disturbed her thoughts and gave her goosebumps." Whoah!!! You startled me!...You are Dean isn't it?" She was surprised when suddenly a man came out of nowhere. His shadow was blended among the dimlit corner of the garden. "Sorry startling you is not my intention. Yes I am Dean the blacksheep of the family, but then I'm not a member of this family either."Why do you say that?""It's how the rest of the family treated me. Except for Riana, she is the most gentlest person in the family." Giah look at him thinking. "What is the problem of this
Giah fixed herself before going to breakfast . She tried to hide the dark circles under her eyes. She had a sleepless night, tossing and turning before finally able to catch up with sleep. She wondered why she had never experienced this before. Is it because of the things she had learn about the family? , the threat, from the mistress of the family, the indifference of the younger siblings, Dean's insecurities and Riana's warning.Leo, suddenly her second thoughts increase about this man.

"Because I'm sure you're room is bugged free." "What makes you so sure?" She asked. Then Martha showed her something. "I took it when you were at the dinner table I made a quick look at your room." she showed Giah small gadgets. "What?! Who are you really Martha? You don't strike me as an innocent young girl.
