71. Threats and rewards

Only Aster knew how he came back. His kind was buzzing. The things he ignored came back to his mind. Why did the Lexor family start developing here? Why Marvin requested to live with him?Most importantly why Grandpa Lexor came to stay here. They were family. They were Lia's family. This explained why they knew everything about him and Lia. This was simply surprising. It meant that he should talk with Marvin.He waited for Marvin in his apartment for a long time. "You are good."Marvin spoke dryly.Aster stood up. He didn't know where to put his hands but he had to talk. "Brother, you are Lia's family."Marvin didn't say anything but his temperament changed. "Then I can talk to you about some things."He sat down."I don't like what you did."Aster nodded."Lia is not someone you can play with. I don't like your contract in any way. I'm quiet because I feel like she agreed. I'm not accepting her decision either but I have no say in this matter. But in any case, you are more at

72. Bad expression

Marvin and Oggy had a deep talk before they decided how to handle the matter between Aster and their family.Their grandfather had given his statement. Lia was not to be hurt in any way.This made things heavy.They had to move forward extremely cautiously. "You saw why, we have to now not act on Aster.""Brother, he is my best friend."Marvin glared at Oggy."Your best friend trapped your sister in a stupid agreement. He could have confessed to her straightforward instead of acting like a complete doofus CEO like in the novels."Oggy touched his nose."You are right. But brother, I know this, people in love lose their IQ. That's why he acted like this. Maybe he wanted to have his first and last relationship with our sister. Isn't this hood? If he asked someone else to act like his wife now. Wouldn't we be on the bad side?"Marvin glared more. "You know I'm right. It's just that he involved her in danger. But brother, Lia isn't a kid. She saw the out dug by him and she jumped in wi

73. Follow to destruction

Aster had just sent off the unwanted visitor when he found something else."Sir, I found a very suspicious activity."Ray called Aster and he hugged from his tone that Ray was really confused.Marvin had visited his new office and came back when he found Aster waiting for him."What's new?"Aster was depressed."I found that there is a new emerging force that is attacking my company. Can you track it?"Aster was sire that Marvin could help. He had forces that were superior to him."Show me."Marvin looked at the screen and frowned."This is not a white company. Most probably this should be some shell corporation and who is behind it, will take time to investigate.""Okay, I will be at ease with you looking at this."Aster had another reason to do this. He wanted to do other checks in the meantime.Marvin didn't bring his assistant here so I transferred the work to him.He had three assistants and they were trained to do specific tasks. One was his life assistant who helped in daily jo

75. Speechless

"I'm sorry, sister. I lied. I just wanted to discredit you. I know I'm wrong. I'll not do this again. Please forgive me."Before Aster could do anything, she kneeled. Lia was speechless at this. What can she do to someone who could perform a drama scene at any moment? "Yes, Mrs. Brooks, you see, she is a child. Let her go.""Yes, she knows she is wrong."This kind of stupid moral kidnapping, Lia felt for the first time. She had seen this and knew about this. But experiencing it first hand, this was the first time. She understood now that experiencing yourself makes you empathize with anything.You can say, I feel you but you are wrong. If you feel, only then you can feel. You can't just imagine. Because the mindset when you imagine is quite different from when you feel.It shows you what differs in these two cases. And Lia was pissed now. Her teeth were clenched. She wanted to yell but she couldn't. Aster frowned."Miss Ruby, you act like we asked you to kneel. Please get up and

76. How?

Lia stared at Ruby and saw her looking at her like a kitten."I have to go. I'm busy.""Yes, yes, sister. When do you get off?"She asked running after Lia."I don't know. If my team leader gives me more work, I have to stay late.""Why? It would help if you only worked during work hours. Do they give you overtime pay? If not, I will fight for you."She said moving her hands."They pay me well. Otherwise thus won't be the most sought company here. You should go do your job."Lia hoped frantically that she left her here.Because Lia had a terrible first impression of Ruby. Maybe the third impression. But that sire sealed the deal. She didn't want to stay with her for one more second."Hey, sister, what's your name?"Lia walked faster."Sister, I'm Ruby. What's your name?"She kept yelling.Lia could see people looking at them weirdly.She was embarrassed."Don't shout. Listen, you have to stop following me. You should have some work to do here, right?"Ruby kept following Lia again.L

77. Contradictory

Lia was very much in a dilemma now.She told Aster about her meeting with Ruby. "By this incident, we can rule out the possibility that she recognized you. And we can also infer that she is definitely not like the person she showed herself at the party. She doesn't like to hurt others but she still framed you. Why?"Yes. why would someone act in a totally different way?Unless they were coerced to do that."What if? I mean, what if the person behind the scenes asked her? There's no other reason, right?"Aster pondered. "You may be right. We have to confirm this. Otherwise, we can go the wrong way."Lia nodded but she felt that her hypothesis was right. She liked the person Ruby was when she asked her to be her friend. But she didn't like when Ruby hurt her earlier. But she saw her as two different people, not one person.It was totally different.How could she treat her nicely when she got flashes of her framing? It was a contradictory situation."I will see if I get any informatio

78. What if?

Lia finally liked Ruby's post. She couldn't stop herself. She had completely changed her impression of Ruby from the posts on her Wowee wall.Lia didn't think for a second if those were really drawn by Ruby. What if? What if she was impersonating someone else?This was what Aster had thought. He couldn't believe the good in everyone like Lia. He was deeply suspicious. And the way Ruby seemed to change her colors also made him hesitate.He knew that she didn't know Lia's real identity. So her actions couldn't be doubted. But what if?Sometimes coincidences happening are not coincidences. Lia acted her feelings. Aster waited till he could decode something.Both of them made different choices but they were United against the whole world.Marvin also decided to check Ruby Simmons. He had targeted her the moment he saw her targeting Lia. He was very concerned about Lia's safety. He was already suspicious when his uncle concealed their existence before his death. They knew nothing about

79. A clean day

When Lia told Aster about her confirmation, he didn't react the way she thought."I don't think you should believe her. Maybe she is acting. We can't say.""She is a good person."Aster shook his head."You are basing this on the fact that her drawings are soulful. What if she didn't draw that? And in the case she drew that, you can't think that she is alright. Some villains are pretty normal. But they are still villains."Lia was speechless."It's hard to talk with you. Anyway, I will prove that she is a good person, you see."Lia huffed and ran away.Aster didn't take notice of this because he was very much on guard against Ruby. Even if she was his savior, he didn't know her motives for saving him.Moreover, in retrospection, his kidnapping incident seemed totally flawed to him.How could he be kidnapped when he was totally protected? That means it was an inside job. So a human intervention was found here and now he feels that the whole incident will blow open if he investigated.M
