"What are you talking about?" she asked him, expressionlessly. Thanks to her wonderful acting skills she knows how to do it; she was able to do it because there was AI and a laptop screen between them or else, she knew she could not do such good acting in front of him.

He raised an eyebrow and she knew he was not buying it.

"I have asked you once and you know I fucking hate repeating things," he growled.

She felt her heart was rushing so fast.

"Why the heck you were checking upon his details? Do you think you can easily sneak out under my nose and I won't know?" he asked annoyed.

She had no idea what she had to do in such a situation.

She looked around for Eliza but she knew Eliza must be busy making cakes.

"Saliha...answer.." he growled again. She knew he was like any bomb that could explode at any time.

She looked around again and then she put the laptop lid down.

"Don't you dare to..." his angry voice touched her eardrum giving her chills and went silent.

Her hands were shaking because she knew the devil would kill her even if he was miles away.

Her phone started ringing and she knew who it could be. She closed her eyes forcefully.

"Saliha dear, your phone is ringing," said Eliza from the kitchen.

She fetched the phone from the bag with pounded it was indeed the devil.

"Now what I will do?" she thought.

The phone was continuously ringing and then it stopped. He must have discontinued the call from the other side and Saliha knew this was not a good sign. The devil must have his ways of torturing her.

She was feeling so overwhelmed by Roman's schemes that she did not realize that she was on a mission to gain negative evidence against Atta so that she could show it to Hala and tell her his reality.

"Hey," she was playing with a pen with a random book open in front of her when Hunza called her. Hunza has been busy lately since she got engaged to Emaad; she has to attend parties and Emaad's family is a sort of a celebrity. They were the most infamous white collars in the town but she heard Roman and Emaad talking about the family's dark business and then Saliha met Ahsan's father in one of Roman's shady gatherings.

"Hey," Saliha greets her.

"Where are you these days? No calls, no talks. I thought it was me in the group getting demanding these days but you have even crossed my score," Hunza said.

"Oh come on, projects and all these shits are making my life a living hell," Saliha said exhausted.

"Have you talked to Roman?" Hunza asked in a whisper. Saliha felt there was something she wanted to tell her.

"Well, no. You know he does not talk to me," Saliha said, unenthusiastic.

Hunza rolls her eyes; she said, "He is a dick, I know."

Saliha started writing something randomly in the notebook as if she were in deep thought.

"Saliha?" Hunza drags her out of her thoughts again.

"Hmm.." said Saliha.

"I need to share something with you, and it...it is regarding Roman," she said in a lower tone. Saliha felt her all body was an ear.

"I..I.I don't know how to tell you this. Saliha I am sorry," Hunza said, sheepishly.

"What is it?" Saliha asked, her heart was ponding.
