(MARRIED TO THE DEVIL SON)VOLUME 3

54

Heaven didn't come to see him despite the hurtful things she had said to him. Why did he expect her to come? Maybe she was right. She was always the one to come and apologize whenever they fought, and he was expecting the same thing even now. But Heaven had changed. She was not the childhood friend that he knew. He wouldn't mind the change if it didn't happen so suddenly. He just didn't trust Zamiel.

He had planned to leave her, to distance himself, so why was he still here hoping and expecting that she would come to check on him? To see if he was alright and apologize for what she said. But she didn't come. His old friend was truly gone. She had every right to be angry if he truly made her feel the way she felt. Still, the friend he knew would never leave him, even then. This made him suspicious of Zamiel. He had to make sure that the ancient demon wasn't tricking her. That his intentions were pure. Only then he would leave Heaven to him.

A knock on the door disrupted his thoughts. His father opened the door and peeked inside. "Is everything alright?" He asked.

Zarin nodded. "Yes."

His father opened the door completely and stepped inside. "You have never been in your room for so long."

"I just want to be alone." He said.

"I know you had a fight with Heaven. Do you want to talk about it?" Roshan asked.

Zarin stood up from his seat. "We fight all the time. There is nothing to talk about. I need to go now, father." He said grabbing his jacket. He needed to know more about Zamiel.

"Your mother made lunch. She won't be happy if you just leave." Roshan explained.

Zarin put his jacket on. "Tell her, I am sorry." He said then left his room.

When he arrived at the old house where Zamiel stayed, he was surprised to find it under construction work. What was happening?

He went to one of the construction workers to find out some information.

"This mansion is being rebuilt for Lord Zamiel." The old man said.

Zarin nodded. "Where is he now?" He asked.

"Who are you?" The construction worker asked.

"I am his friend. I have been looking for him and I was directed here." He lied.

"I understand, but he lives somewhere else for now."

The construction worker gave him directions, and Zarin followed them. He ended up finding his house at the end. Just when he arrived, Zamiel was walking out of his house. Zarin watched from afar so the ancient demon wouldn't be able to sense him. Zamiel was dressed like a wealthy man and a carriage came to pick him up.

The change surprised him but also made him more suspicious, so he continued to follow him.

It seemed like Zamiel was meeting other wealthy men and they were doing business together.?The other men addressed him with respect, which meant he was wealthier than them. Where did he get his wealth from? The items of negotiation were gold, silver, and high-quality fabrics. It wasn't easy things to be obtained in a matter of days.

Things only got more mysterious as he continued to spy on him. It wasn't only gold and silver that was being traded, even lands were included. When did he have time to buy and own lands? What was this mans goal?

Once Zamiel left, Zarin approached one of the wealthy men trading with Zamiel. He pretended to be interested in buying a land just to find out more information about Zamiel.

"He is a wealthy man from the Stasian Empire. He wants to settle down here and has already started trading gold and lands." The man explained.

It seemed like Zamiel was trying to make a name for himself. He must be planning to marry Heaven. He was already becoming famous among rich people, and many were interested in working with him.
