Dare To Love

Chapter 23

{Izzah's POV}

I stare at his eyes with the same intense.

"How did you get in here?", he asks.

"How?! You thought you'd be able to hide your hideous truth? That you are not a petty physiologist but a scam that deceives people for money?"

He looks at me with his brows furrowed, "And who the fuck told you that?"

Alyan doesn't curse usually the only time I heard him cuss was our second meeting at my basement which means he's really angry now.

"Does that matter? You should have told me everything at the first place!!", I shout at him.

My eyes again searching for his but the only word comes out from my mouth is, "Why?"

He takes a glance at Faaris and Faaris nods before leaving.

Alyan turns his back to me running his hands over his hair, "You shouldn't have come here. Everything would've been according to the plan if we got married first"

"What do you mean? You wanted to marry me by keeping me in the dark?"

"Let's not beat around the bush anymore, as you already know I'm not some petty physiologist, then let's get to the point", he turns around and tells me, "I'm Alyan Isam, owner of NYC Health+Hospital"

My jaw drops when I digest the fact that Alyan is the owner of the NYC Health+Hospital.

"If that's true then... why did you lie? There's no need for you to stay at my house. Why did you agree to become my mom's physiologist when you weren't short of money? Why did you even want to marry me? What is your motive behind all this?"

"Because of Envision, I want you to sign these papers", what does my company has to do with him?

"Envision?!", I go through the papers.

"Yeah, The Envision belongs to me", I hate the seriousness of his face.

"Are you out of your mind? That's my father's business. Legally it's mine. Why do you want it?"

"Because it's rightful owner is my father!!", his eyes red almost making me numb.

"What did you say?"

"Your father decieved my family and took over the business which was initially started by my father", his jaw clenching and his hand making fists.

"You-your father?!", I don't believe my ears.

"Your father and my mother are first cousins. My family's kind enough to give shelter to your bankrupt father also offered him job at that time. I wish they knew that your father's such a snake in the grass. Dad told him to watch and learn the business tricks with him. Your father learnt quickly and he was very skillful which helped the company to progress. But soon he showed his true colors. Seeing the chance one night he drugged Dad, very deceitfully took his signature and become the owner of company. The next day we lost everything to your father. He kicked out Dad from his own company not even bothered by the fact that how my family's going to survive on. Imagine Izzah, how'd it feel if I do the same to you? What will happen to Arish and your mom?", I can feel the pain inflicting on my chest as his raged eyes hovering over mine.

"No you can't do that! I'm not giving you my company no matter what. I don't even know if you're telling me the truth or not. After all that I came to learn about you, I don't trust any of your words", I shake my head refusing to believe him.

"So you mean you won't sign these papers. C'mon don't let me force you. Sign it now", his eyes intimidating me.

"You may be powerful and all but I won't submit to you. I'm not going to sign! You hear me. I won't do it. I'm leaving", I walk to the main door when he shouts.
