"Why are you taking a simple statement I said yesterday to be so dramatic?" Zara queried Saliha, who was expecting Zara to give her an answer about what she told her.

"And why are you so reluctant to tell me the truth?"

"Listen. I meant what I said—It was only a simple friendship. We met only a few times to get to know each other, and he didn't even show interest in me—its still you,"

Saliha's mood changed. The fact that Aabid showed interest in her and not Zara thrilled her to the bones. How true was this?

Afterall, it was said he first saw her at the airport and proceeded with such a huge move. This one—she believed it since it was Chief Yusuf Loharani that uttered that himself. But this, she wondered how true Zara's words were.

"Are you in support of this? Is he a good person?" Saliha pathetically asked, looking directly into Zara's eyes. Zara looked down, as if reluctant to speak. However, she gave a curt nod and a grin and looked away to her phone.

"Yes. You two will match. He doesn't seem that bad," Zara said. "Not that there's something I know of, I mean,"

Saliha was allowed to settle down and think about what her dad had said to her the day before. He spoke firmly about her and Aabid, and she realized that he had been unaware of the swap all along. He was furious when he discovered the truth. Anxiety cleaved her heart when she remembered he additionally mentioned that President Jalaludeen himself was going to land in Turkey within 3 days.

She went shopping that morning for makeup and outfits to boost her confidence before meeting with Aabid to finalize the marriage.

Lee calmly addressed President Jalaludeen and gave him the most recent information regarding the purchase of those shares.

"What do you mean you were unable to get them?" Jalaludeen inquired, his mood revolving into an unpleasant one.

"Sir, we were unable to figure out who it was since it was online."

"Can you not trace the address or system?"

"Sir, the address said it was done in this company. As for the system, anybody may have used any device to log in since it's commercial operations,"

"Very well." He said with disappointment. Although Jalaludeen announced to abandon the investigation, the loss pained him a great deal.

His personal smartphone called almost an hour later, and he quickly picked it up. Ma'Haleema was there. She phoned in regards to Aabid's arranged date.

"They want to swap the girls?"

[Yes, that is how it looked to be. They wanted to match the other girl, 'Zara' with your son,]
