"Miss Robinson, where's Mrs Lyle?" Dean's voice same from the receiver.

"She ran back home I suppose." Jane replied. "She was in quite a hurry." She added.

"Thank you miss." Dean hung up the phone and reported to Devian.

"Track her phone." Devian said.

He took her phone once for a reason but when the mysterious caller didn't call her until next day, he gave her the phone back. It seemed like the mysterious caller was keeping an eye on her.

"Director, the signal is here." Dean passed the tracker showing the signal of the phone from a remote area.

"What's this girl doing here! Let's go" Devian got up and walked out in big strides.

"Yes director." Dean followed.

...

The driver finally stopped the car. There was not a single soul in the place.

"Where have you bought us. What do you want to do?" Arien spoke.

"I'm just doing the job I take money for." The driver said, laughing.

"Job? So it's Roger? I'll not let him off easily." As Robert expected, he would not let his lies come out so easily. And this was his means of keeping their mouth shut.

"Well well, it's not important now... Because both of you will be dead." The man laughed louder, pointing a gun at Arien.

Just in time the two cars that were following them, stopped there and four heavy built man got out.

Robert tried to push Arien behind so as to protect her from being hurt but Arien was strong enough. She didn't step aside and stood between the man and Robert.

"Uncle, stay calm and run when you get the chance." She murmured. "At least one of us should get back safe."

Arien was hoping that if any one of them run away safe, at least  Devian would be informed.

"I won't leave you alone here." Robert denied.

Two of the men who came in the car stepped forward walking towards the person holding gun.

While the other two stood beside Arien.

But... They actually hit him!

Weren't they Roger's men?

"Arien what's happening?" Robert got confused. If they were Roger's men, they should kill them but they were protecting them.

Just then Arien noticed, "They aren't Roger's men, they are Devian's." She smiled.

"Devian? Devian Lyle... Your husband?" Robert asked. "And how are you so sure?"

"Yes, I could say by their dresses." Arien took a deep sigh of relief.

Just as she breathed she saw another car. It was the Porsche Boxster.

"Devian." She called.

He came out and walked straight to her holding her in his arms. "Let's go home"

"And what about him?" She pointed to the driver.

"My men will take care of him." They started walking to their car. But Arien noticed that Robert wasn't following.

"Uncle, what's the matter?" She asked.

Robert was still in a daze seeing the person Arien was calling her husband. It was Devian Ace.

"Come with us uncle, we will protect you." Arien said again.

"Arien.... If I come with you, I'm afraid such an incidence may happen again. Moreover your husband is..." Robert was interrupted.

"Uncle, we can talk at home." Devian seemed to have seen through his thoughts.

He isn't just a businessman but the CEO of the best corporate. This must be an easy task for him to see through ones mind.

Isn't it? Haha! He should be a magician!!!

They drove back, all the way Robert was wondering about how the Ace corp's president married their child?

But seeing that he was treating her well, Robert had no worries.

"Where are we going Devian?" Arien saw that this was not the way to Lyle Mansion.

"To meet someone." He answered.

The car stopped in front of a house.

"Uncle, you can meet her." Devian said to Robert.

"Huh?" Arien couldn't understand. And same was Robert's reaction.

Just then the door is the house opened.

"Manager Nicole?" Arien saw her coming out.

"Nicole?" Robert couldn't help coming out and running to her.

Arien also came out followed by Devian and Dean.

"What's happening Devian?" She asked.

"Nicole is uncle Robert's daughter." Devian answered.

Arien was dumbfounded, "What!" She exclaimed.

"Yes, look at this." Devian said while Dean passed the folder to her.

Arien couldn't help exclaiming a number of times while reading the file.

Nicole was Robert's daughter Arien was shocked, this means she was her cousin sister? She was taken away by Roger Willis, who was uncle Robert's elder brother, when she was too young to understand anything.

After the car accident, Robert's was locked up by his elder brother and was told the truth about Nicole being his child along with the DNA reports.

They came to know the truths only when they were blackmailed by Roger to work according to him.

Not only that Nicole was brainwashed but also blackmailed, that Arien was responsible for everything that was happening to both the father and daughter.

They saw Robert and Nicole walking towards them.

"Arien." Nicole cried. "I'm sorry sister. I don't know how to apologize to you. I kept on making plans and kept on hurting you but you saved my father. Please forgive me!"

"Sister, you haven't done anything wrong. If I were in your place, I would have done the same. Please stop crying." She consoled her.

"I lived with that bastard and called him father for so many years and that emotionless man threw the file of my real father on my face just to have you killed." Nicole cried.

"Sister, you need to be careful. Roger's men would definitely come to find you." At this moment it was their safety that matters for Arien.

"Okay." Nicole said hugging Arien.

How mean she was, wanted to kill such a kind girl. A thousand apologies will not be even in exchange to what Arien has done today.

Nicole could only make a promise to herself to help Arien in whatever she could to apologize. This was her way of saying sorry.

"Don't think too much about it," Devian interrupted. "I'll arrange for their safety, rest assured Mrs Lyle." He said.

"Thank you Mr Lyle" Arien smiled.

"Arien you take care." Nicole reminded her "Roger is really dangerous. He would definitely try to harm you"

"Okay sister, you also take good care of both of you." Arien replied.

Both, Devian and Arien left for Lyle Mansion.

On the way back she couldn't help asking him, "How do you get these information so easily?"

Devian didn't reply for a while and looked at her quietly.
