Ivanov Williams had rightfully died after saving a good little dog that had belonged to him but the irony was that just the day before that the dog had been kicked out of his apartment by him after forgetting to feed it for days. We could neither ca...
George then kept my call on speaker mode to let Maria hear the conversation as well after signalling her to keep quiet by placing a finger before his pursed lips to hush her.

Maria looked curiously not knowing what her husband was trying to let her know by overhearing the call.
She did notice all the changes in his facial expression after he picked up the phone. She knew the call was from her younger son.
She liked him very much and cared for him too but that child always felt insecure.
She tried to keep him close to her but it felt like she was not doing enough. She often spoke to her cold and indifferent elder son against his will just to find out about Evan's likes and dislikes because she was unable to figure things out herself. Yet she came to know that both of her sons were not close to each other as much as she had expected. She didn't want to tell Evan about the adoption because she felt that it might just send her son even farther away from her than he already was.
However, George said that it was his right to know about his real parents no matter how selfish we were about wanting to keep him close to us and not strain our relationships. He also said that he trusts Evan to make the right choice and stay with us even after finding out about his adoption.
She was shocked to say the least when she heard that Evan had tried to force himself on a girl at the office. She didn't want to believe it at all but she knew very well that Drake never lies.
She was heartbroken to hear this and realized that it was perhaps her fault for not being able to give him a proper upbringing.
She should have noticed that he was going down the wrong path and stopped him at once. But it was too late.
George and Drake could stand anything but that. There was once a man who had kidnapped her and tried to have his way with her but she was lucky to have a good husband and a capable son who were able to rescue her just in time. She had kept it a secret from her younger child so as to keep him away from the darkness of the world.
Alas, reality is truly bitter...
She was depressed. So, to cheer her up my husband brought her out on a little date. She truly did love him.
As much as he tries to hide his sadness about loosing his son so as to not let her know, she could easily find out. But now from his reaction she simply couldn't decipher what had happened.
George was trying his best to control his surging anger. He was upset about having to disown his cute little second child but had to because he couldn't let a person with such a character stay at home. He was still wondering what must have made his rabbit like son to do something like a dreadful wolf.
He simply couldn't imagine that the young boy would do something like that... Nevertheless he was informed by Drake that Evan had done just that and his son Drake never really makes mistakes at judging situations. So, he took strict actions without delay.
But from the looks of it, his son, Drake had let his anger control his judgement and let a woman make a fool out of him. At the same time made a mistake which lead us to lose our son, Evan. I know he always kept quiet about what had taken place back then with my wife but deep down he hated being not careful enough to keep his mother safe and despised any who committed or even tried to do such things.
He could not blame Drake though because he was sure that he too might have reacted that way. That vile woman was too lucky to have come up with an act that raised their protective feelings.
He at the same time felt distress over where his son, Evan, is.
He needs to apologize for what he has done. Though he doesn't know if he will be forgiven.
Ah! Let me just get a hold of you, you damn women, see if I don't skin you alive for making me separate from my beloved son!

Evan was shaken due to Levi's magic but his fear was wearing away. He had never been one to be scared of something for long.
He wracked his brain to come up with a better solution.
"Levi, do something...anything! I don't know but my heart beat is returning to normal" I asked exasperatedly.
Levi looked at me and said with a serious expression for the first time "There is a spell that I have heard of but never tried on someone. It is a spell that is used on souls to make them suffer at Mellisia. I don't know what affect it will have on a soul with a body. However, I had heard that the spell makes a person feel suffocated as if the air surrounding them has disappeared. They feel pain in the chest at times too if the spell caster is proficient at magic. If and only if you think that it is okay with you then I will proceed to use the spell on you. Otherwise,not. You choose Ray"
I thought about it for a while. I was planning to go back to the apartment then think of a way to prove Evan's innocence regarding that issue but when I got into the elevator with Misa I suddenly had this crazy idea which I came up with but didn't think of how it might actually turn out. I didn't think of a proper foolproof plan beforehand and was just going with the flow, as and when I thought of doing something, I did.
I didn't want to take a risk right now and get into a mess but at the same time didn't want the present happenings to go to waste.
I needed to get enough sympathy from people to white wash my reputation, not just to clarify this issue but start anew.
I decided to take up Levi's offer. Might as well pull all the stops then see what happens.
"Go on and please make it fast" I answered to Levi who was patiently waiting for me to think this through.
She clasped her hands and twirled around. Light flickered out of her body and enveloped her completely.
Tiny bits of the light fragments came towards me and entered my body. Slowly, I felt as if my chest was tightening. My breathing picked up.
"Misa, I will tell you something. Keep up with your white lotus act then eventually Drake will fall in love with you. It will be really nice" I said softly with a wide smile.
Misa looked at me with suspicion and asked haughtily "Why would you like that? I thought you would try your best to not let me reach my goal after I ruined your life with a single lie. Don't you hate me for throwing dirty water on your reputation?"
I saw Maria become stiff after hearing that. And I smiled even more.
