Kasity :

"I don't understand Alastair." I say...

"Areson had met her and talked to her. At that time we weren't on the same side. He had approached her... Influenced her..." he says...

"I knew he was going to invade my personal life. And turn it into hell." he continues...

"Areson wouldn't do that." I oppose him.

He gives me a disappointing look...

"I told you, you don't know Areson well." He answers...

Areson :

"Areson we finished the deal, they liked our presentation." Avery says as he walks in my office.

"Good." I answer.

"And we are good regarding Alastair's people. They are not a threat to us anymore. It seems like they just took a step back." he adds...

I smile in disappointment...

"You really think that they are going to let this go?" I ask him...

"Technically, they could, because since Kasity is there, I think he doesn't want to harm you." Avery continues.

"You know what this is called? This is called revenge, Avery, and he won't stop until he finishes this." I say as I raise my voice, angry, furious...

"He can't manipulate her." Avery replies...

I bang my hand on the desk and take a deep breath.

"You get what you give Areson. Remember what you've done." he contradicts me...

"Now you just have to think of a way to fix this without anybody getting hurt." he says and then leaves...

*Flashback, 6 years ago*

Areson :

"I know you love me..." I tell her...

"Is it that obvious Mr. Kingstone?" she asks...

"Alastair's next moves are about to take my company down." I say.

"He won't do that. I am helping you." She says as she approaches me...

"Yes, you do love me." I confirm.

"Can you help me with the dress Areson?" She asks...

"The only thing I'll be able to do is to take it off." I say, my voice lower than usual...

"Do whatever you want." She provokes...

I approach her...

My lips so close to hers...

"Well, if you want me to prove you my love, I'll kiss you, and no I'm not helping you with the dress, because I don't want you to think that I love you only when I'm about to take it off." I say.

She smiled. She knew me too well already.

And I did as I said.

*End of flashback*

Kasity :

"He just manipulated her, Kasity. Until she didn't want me anymore. Do you have any idea how that feels?" Alastair says...

"What if she fell in love with him Alastair?" I ask, trying to change his point of view...

He laughs.

"He used her just so he could defend his company, because he was afraid of me. She was skillful enough to help him." he reveals...
