Janette found darkness infront of her eyes after reading that letter, her hands were shaking and tears were rolling out of her eyes, that explains the reason of the way Asher behaved with her so low when they married, but still couldn't made her mind to trust Robert Stark even after seeing those reports.  But still she felt as if someone has stabbed her in her heart, it's the second time someone broke her heart, She felt used by her husband, all this while he was using her even if he had changed his motive still he lied to her that he loved her.

She made the ball of Stark's letter and threw it in the dustbin, one thing was already cleared to her , that Robert Stark isn't her father, have he being he wouldn't have forced her into this marriage with such a dangerous man, "I felt trapped!" She felt furious and the magnitude of pain she was feeling now was undefined, the sad thing about heartbreak is that we get it from people we hadn't expected, she always saved herself from getting hurt by a guy but this time she has fallen in her own trap, she felt disgusted that she allowed him to touch her the first time following numerous times and everytime she enjoyed it, she hated herself for feeling a sense of security when he's around, the irony is he's her worst enemy.

She needed answers from that Robert Stark, why he let her go in Lion's den, without thinking anything she decided to stop by devils house to gave him a piece of mind,she hailed a cab and within no time she reached the devils house, "How could you?" She shouted as she reached inside the hall where the devil was taking to his wife, the couple glanced at her with hopeful eyes, and Stark stood up, "We knew you'd show up." Janette let out a fake laugh, they think that I am so naive to believe that they're my real parents, they're wrong I am here to get answers, Janette wondered and sighed.

"I know everything, Mr Stark you killed my father for that bloody company, you didn't think twice to kill your own family." Janette couldn't help but blurted out she was really extremely furious, Who gave him the right to kill  innocent people? Julia Stark  grasp and looked at Janette with shock written all over her face, don't know the shock was because she discovered the truth or something else, Janette doesn't care as if his wife is aware about the sins that her husband has committed, this time she wanted to be selfish because she's gone through a lot and she just couldn't hold it anymore, Robert Stark at first was shocked at her sudden outburst but later he smirked, she gave him an incredulous look but changed that with a disgusting expression because that was expected from him , "I feel no shame in confessing that. My elder brother deserved that." He muttered with gritted teeth, Janette resisted the urge to slap him.

"You have a lot to lose young lady." He roars and glared at her, "Oh! I've nothing to lose old man." She replied, "The husband that I got because of you, married me to use myself against you.The family that I got by your grace, is your puppet." She felt a slight pain in her heart for talking about the people who raise her up with so much love like that, but that was the truth and the truth is always painful.

......

The meeting lasted longer than usual, and Asher for no reason felt that something unnatural was going to happen moreover it has been six hours since the last time he saw Janette, he just wanted to run back to his house and spend evening with her, nothing or no one was capable diverting his attention from his work, but Janette. He was completely sure that Robert Stark will not stay quite and will do something to get that company back, the man who can kill his brother for property will not think twice before harming his niece, that thought itself made him sick to the stomach. Maybe he's thinking too much, Janette is completely safe in the walls of his mansion and she doesn't leave the house without any security, with so much courage he tried to suppress those negative thoughts but still they dominated his mind till the meeting got over.

He shook his hands with the clients and switched on his phone, the message box which used to be filled with her chats was today empty, he wasn't getting a good feeling about it, he decided to call her but choose against it and instead decided to leave, he just wanted to see her safe in his house, by the time he reached to his house the lights of the whole mansion was on, usually only dinning room lights are on, which made hairs on his neck rise, he parked his car in mid-way and ran inside , all he just wanted to see his wife's face, and that too safe and sound, adenine was rushing through his veins, as he search for her, unable to find her anywhere, he decided to call Mart, who might be sleeping by now but that poor woman was cleaning the kitchen, she used to do that before his wedding, she used to wait for her master's arrival so that the house isn't empty, Janette changed everything the lady herself used to wait for husband even when, Asher a thousand times advised both of them not to.

Asher was about to smile but then the reality hit him, if Mart is awake till now, and he couldn't find his wife anywhere, then where the hell is she at this hour of the day, not that he's being a possessive husband but she doesn't stay out of the house this long.

"You're back Master." He heard Mart talking, "Where's Janette,I me..an Mrs Norma..n?" Asher's eyes grew, wide she didn't even told Mart, he decided to call Eric because Janette's phone was switched-off, but stopped mid-way as he found a paper under his shoes and an envelope on his couch, it's DNA reports claiming that Robert and Julia Stark was Janette's real parents but that paper was a ball but he opened it and his eyes grew wide, that explains the reason of her absence from this house.

"How can Janette be so naive to believe all this?" He wondered as far as he knew her she wasn't so dumb, but maybe she's mad on him for lying to her and marrying her to use her.

He felt pain in his heart, he just doesn't have slightest idea about what his next move will going to be and he was worried for Janette's wellbeing, he prayed internally that she doesn't ended up at Robert's house.

He decided to call the bodyguards that he haired for Janette but before he could he got a call from an unknown number, without thinking twice he picked it up, it must be important.

"Is it Mr Norman?"

"Actually, sir your wife met with an accident and she's in AB hospital, people recognis..." He didn't hear anything after that, his world flipped and his heart stopped beating for a second.

"Noo" he shouted and rushed towards hospital.
