EDWARD'S POV:
I walked to Justin's cabin as I needed to talk to him about some deals. But he wasn't there. Strange... He never leaves anywhere at office time. And as much as I know, there's no such meetings for which he has to go out.
I dialled his number. He picked at third ring. "Where are you Justin?" I asked him.
"In the hospital."
What? Hospital? What happened all of a sudden?
"What happened Justin? Who's in the hospital?"
I heard Abigail's voice in the background. "Brother, sob sob.... She will be fine right? Sister in law would be find right?"
Sister in law? Ivana? What happened to her? "Justin, what happened to Ivana?"
"An accident. She saved Abigail." What was he saying? I couldn't understand it clearly but I was tensed. She's always been a great co worker and moreover, I see her like my sister."Justin, which hospital are you in?"
"St. Joseph hospital"
"I'm coming." I cut the call and rushed to parking. A
JUSTIN'S POV:"Boss, I've got something to tell." Angelo said coming towards me. I nodded at him before he started saying,"Sir, the accident was not an accident. I mean it was an attempt to murder."I knew it. I had that doubt and I wanted to ensure it. Someone is trying to target my family. Abigail was the target. I don't know what would I have done if she... No... I can't even imagine losing my sister. I felt my body turning hot due to anger. I can tolerate anything but nothing against my family. I'm having this strong feeling that it's him behind all."What have you found Angelo?" Edward asked."The car which hit madam had fake number plate. And upon searching that car, we found it was a rented car. The one who hit madam had used fake number plate after renting it. He returned the car just after hitting madam.""Someone is trying to target your family Justin. Abigail was targeted but Ivana saved her at right time." said Edward."D
EDWARD'S POV:Abigail, Nancy and Miya were taking care of aunty while uncle is talking with the doctors. He's making sure that she'll get the best treatment and services here in the hospital. Ivana is shifted to VIP ward now.Justin was not there. I don't know where did he go. But one thing stroke in my mind. I dialled Angelo's number."Yes Edward sir.""Justin had told you about the security for his family. Make sure you also look after Ivana's security. She'll also need it too.""Sir, boss has already ordered me to look after her security. He has also asked me to manage special security and bodyguards for her in the hospital. I've already sent the bodyguards. They must be on the way to hospital."I was so delighted to hear that. He... he actually thought about her? He wanted to have security for his family and he even asked for Ivana? Does that... does that mean he has accepted Ivana as his family? I couldn't believe it when he
JUSTIN'S POV:"Mr. Merchant, now she's out of danger. She's finally got consciousness after twenty four hours of observation. You can meet her. But please not for too long. She needs to take rest and she'll have to stay in hospital for one more day. We will have to conduct different tests to ensure her safety." The doctor said."Let's go, let's meet her." Mom was impatient to see her. They all entered inside the room to see her. But... I couldn't go inside. I could see her from the door and what do I say after going there.She was lying on the bed with her eyes closed. Her forehead was covered with bandage and also her hands had wounds on it.I felt someone's hand on my shoulder. "Will you just stay here? Won't you go and ask her? How's she feeling?" It was Edward."Ahh... You go. I'll come afterwards." I told him and he shook his head in response before going inside the room.IVANA'S POV:"My child..." I felt hand over my head. I tri
JUSTIN'S POV:"Rosh, take this diet chart. This is her diet chart recommended by doctor and you'll be preparing all the foods as per the diet plan, understood?""Yes... Yes sir.""Okay, prepare a bowl of mushroom soup right now, she needs to have it before her medicine.""Okay sir."I walked back to room to take shower. When I entered the room, she was sleeping on the bed peacefully."Si... Sir... I can manage on the sofa."I remembered how she had said that. But I can't let her sleep on sofa in this condition at least. Ahhh... looks like I'll have to use the sofa for these few days.I walked to washroom with fresh clothes to take shower. When I came out of shower, Abigail was talking with her."Sister in law, I'll have to go to college at ten in the morning and I'll return at three in the afternoon. Bro will also be in the office cause I heard Edward brother saying that his presence is must for the deal they're planning t
JUSTIN'S POV:I took the pillow and kept it on the other side of the sofa. But something fell on the floor. I turned around and saw a diary on the floor. The first thing I noticed was the line:"THEY BETRAYED US."Betray? All those memories flashed in front of my eyes. Every single moment when I... Leave it... I don't even want to remember it. I don't even want to forget it.This is her diary, the same diary in which she keeps on writing something every night. Why did she write they betrayed us? Who does she mean by us? Mom had told me that she's an orphan... And wait...She was crying that day while writing in it. Just after that, the accident. No... but Abi was the target. Here I was thinking someone targeted Abi because of me. But what if someone tried to hurt Abi to torture her? That has chances as well. What if she herself is in some kind of danger? I'll have to find it out. I'll have to sort this out.I picked up the diary and wa
JUSTIN'S POV:I woke up at six when my alarm rang. I was in my half sleep when I stopped the alarm ring and my eyes landed on her. My eyes got wide to see her on bed but then I remembered everything, also the diary.I walked up to the sofa and placed the diary as it was, just under the pillow. She can't write in this condition so she won't search for it. She was still sleeping, looks like the medicine is really strong.I took a short shower and walked downstairs. Abi also came downstairs and we sat on the dinner table waiting for breakfast. I never used to have breakfast before. But now, it has become my habit."Looks like brother has started having breakfast now a days. Uh huh... Sister in law changed your habit huh?" Abi said with a smirk. How did she know the exact thing I was thinking? I didn't say anything though.Rosh brought breakfast and coffee for us. I ordered him to prepare breakfast for her as per the diet chart. I took a sip of coffee.
JUSTIN'S POV:It's been an hour now and I've already called for five times in the mansion. But no one's picking up the call. Wtf.... Is everything fine at the mansion? Shit... I've had enough now. Now I'm going back to the mansion.I was walking towards the door when Edward came running to me. "Justin, we need to leave now. It's an emergency." I can guess it's really an emergency looking at his face."What's the matter Edward?""Someone has filed fake case against our juice factory. Now the media is creating a scene there. We need to rush."Looks like someone is seeking for death. I have to go. Media always keeps on seeking for a chance to blame and I can't let that happen. So I rushed to factory with Edward.IVANA'S POV:I was sleeping when I heard knock on the door. I was feeling so weak. I somehow managed to say, "come in."Uncle Daniel entered the room with porridge and soup. "Madam, it's your lunch time now. You'll have to
JUSTIN'S POV:I continued reading the diary:"The next day, uncle Victor and aunty Anna came to me in my room and started talking with me."Baby, uncle and aunty have to go out of the country for some work. It'll take us two to three years to come back. It's really urgent and we can't take you there cause it's dangerous. Our enemies will target you. We don't have any child and that is why we always loved you like our own and we can't put your life at risk." Uncle Victor said.I would've believed upon the tears that were forming in his eyes if I hadn't heard them speaking yesterday. I'd have trusted them. But now, I'm so astonished to see how brilliantly this human is acting who is supposed to be my uncle."Yes my child, we love you a lot. We can't put your life at stake. So that is why we're sending you somewhere where you'll have many friends. Who'll be with you all this time when we won't be around you. Don't miss us much okay, we'll keep on call
