"What took you so long Ivana? It's already half past eight and we have to reach airport at nine. What happened? Why do you look so disturbed?" Mr. Gray asked immediately after Ivana came out of the car.
"Sir, I'll go get my things ready. I'll tell you everything on the way sir. Here, this is the file you wanted sir." Ivana knew that she wouldn't be able to control her tears if she started talking about it right now. She had to compose herself.
After getting inside her hotel room, she moved to the washroom, locked the door and looked at her face in the mirror. She washed her face and took long deep breaths. After around five minutes, she packed everything as fast as she could and came out of the room with her belongings. She sat inside the car where Mr. Gray was waiting for her.
On the way to the airport, Mr. Gray asked her again about it again but Ivana didn't explain everything in detail. She just said she got stuck in elevator but she didn't say anything about
"But... but Boss, these photos show nothing of which we wanted.""Exactly! These photos have nothing that we wanted as per our plan. In fact these photos have everything which we need to degrade Justin's image in a better way.""Wh... What do you mean boss??""You're really a fool. Okay okay, as you've done such a fantastic job, I'll explain it for you.We had planned to hire a woman and send that woman to Justin's cabin so that she'll try to seduce him. Of course, he is the Justin Merchant who wouldn't be seduced by any woman. But you would click some photographs that would look intimate before Justin throw the woman away.It would be really difficult to prove Justin guilty cause everyone knows he hates woman and wants no woman near him. There would be very less chance of Justin getting framed but I still wanted to take the risk.But that foolish woman denied at the last moment. And here comes another woman, who came as a gennie for me. Do
"Who is here at this time. It's only six in the morning please. I'm literally tired from yesterday's traveling. Why can't people just let me sleep? At least today is my day off." Ivana was talking to herself when the doorbell rang again."Geez! Comingggggg.." she shouted from her room.When she opened the door, Miya and Nancy were standing with sullen faces as if they've seen ghost."What are you guys doing where? And what's wrong with you people. Why do you have such expressions. Please you're scaring me early in the morning." Ivana said putting her hands on her chest.Miya literally dragged Ivana to the room and Nancy locked the door and joined both of them."What's wrong with you people? Why aren't you both saying anything?" Ivana was on verge of crying. Nancy and Miya took long deep breaths and looked at each other.Then Miya took Ivana's hands in her hands and said, "What I'm going to say might give you a huge shock Iva but you need to
"Good... good morning." Ivana greeted Mr. and Mrs. Merchant, all scared. She was standing in front of the couple and Edward. Miya and Nancy were standing behind her."Good morning Ms. Ivana. I'm sure you know the reason why I asked you to be here this early." Mr. Merchant said his hands folded at his back."Y... Yes Sir...." Ivana said in nervousness. Mrs. Merchant took a deep long breath and walked towards her. She took both her hands and said "My child, you don't need to get scared. We've asked Justin to come here as well. He must be on his way, we've asked you to be here so that we can make sure about one thing. Ivana, tell me honestly, did justin really misbehave with you?"Ivana was astonished with her question. She felt warm at her heart that she asked her first instead of asking her son, she didn't judge her which made some drops of tears roll down her eyes."You're crying? Does that mean.... that means he really.....""No... no Ma'am. It's.
"Oh my my, the great Justin Merchant is on the headlines again huh?" The man said going through the news."All the newspapers, tv news and even online news are about the great Justin Merchant huh? Oh la la! Look at the love people are showing towards the very talented Ivana Williams, I'm impressed. Well I'll personally congratulate this lady someday if I meet her. But but, let me enjoy myself right now." The man took a glass of rum and added ice cubes in it.Taking a sip of rum, he read all the comments of audiences."Hmm.... This is excellent. He's receiving more backslashes than I had imagined." He said with a evil smile on his face. He took out one of the photo from the photo album in the drawer.He took a marker and started painting his face on the photo. "Justin, Justin... oh dear Justin. You know what, I'm feeling so damn good right now. The eternal happiness I was seeking for, the happiness I wanted in my life is finally on it's way. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
"This is not important right now, talk about the problem in front of us. How are we going to solve all this?" Edward interrupted."Ma'am, here..." Angelo handed Mrs. Merchant her tablet. She looked over it and sighed before speaking, "We'll have to find a solution to this as soon as possible.""What if Ms. Ivana give her clarifications in front of the media? If she'll talk about the truth, everyone will believe. After all everybody trust on her and are supporting her. I don't think Ms. Ivana will have any problem with it." Angelo suggested."No, not at all. We can't do that." Mr. Merchant interrupted. "If we do this, this will create even more mess. Even if she will give clarifications, media will doubt over it. They will surely use it against us. They will make headlines on how we forced her to give clarifications and that she's being pressurized to give such kinds of clarifications.""And people will definitely believe upon it. We cannot take this risk.
"You must be kidding me mom. Haa!!" Justin sneered."Do you think I'm in mood to joke? At this point of time?""The situation isn't right for joking but after listening to you, it definitely seems like you're willing to joke and let me clearly tell you this, THE JOKE WASN'T FUNNY AT ALL...""Stop it Justin, just stop it. Did you hear me? Just stop it.." Her breathing became heavy. Mr. Merchant and Edward ran towards her for support."Calm down honey. Don't get stressed. You're hurting yourself." Mr. Jason tried to calm her down and made her sit."Yes aunty pease. We'll find out the solution. Don't get stressed aunty." Edward gave her a glass of water.Mrs. Merchant was shaking while drinking the water from the glass. Justin was tensed to see his mom in such condition. After all, he loved his mom a lot and she was the only woman he used to care for besides his sister Abigail.He had never seen his mom this weak. He regretted talking ha
"What are you going to do Justin?" Edward asked Justin."I'm definitely going to do everything that I can do to find out that rascal. Whoever he is, he is not only going to pay for framing me but also for making my mom cry.""But what if you couldn't find him out? Will you marry.....""I've got twelve hours, I don't want to listen about anything in between this time. I just want to focus upon this case and the methods I'll use to torture that culprit." He said harshly before Edward could complete the sentence."Angelo..... Angelo...." He roared."Ye.... Yes Boss...""What's the progress about the case?""Sir, as you both were stuck in elevator, I thought of researching from there. I got to know that your private elevator was intentionally tampered. Someone intentionally tried to create damage in the elevator which is not possible to be done by others except the mechanics.And we had done examination of all the elevators last we
"Who is that man? Why did he come to you?" Angelo questioned."I don't know. He had idea about the revenge thing I was planning but I don't know who he was. I only know that he was working for someone as he was talking to his boss on phone."Angelo signalled the woman in black, she pulled her hair with great force and forced her face inside the bucket full of water for a long time. Rosy was breathless and was struggling hard to catch breath when she was pulled out of bucket.She cried out in pain. "I'm sorry.. I don't know anything about him. I... I just have his number through which he used to contact me. That's all... that's all...." The woman took out phone from her handbag and asked about the number. Rosy showed her the number, that lady handed over the phone to Angelo."Angelo, you know what to do right?"Justin said in cold voice to which Angel nodded. Rosy understood that her life is near to the end and she started begging for her life crying her he
