C4 The trap

The next day Allan had taken over the company by becoming CEO. He investigated everything about Rafhe's and made a scheme to destroy them. He had also sent men to investigate Stella's condition as he was hell worried and confused as to why she was there. Soon in a few days only everything was going his way. He had become a hungry predator waiting for his prey to come in his den on his own. And it happened one day. That one day that changed Rafhe's lives.He had returned his home.The evening was pleasant. He was sitting calmly on a sofa in the living room having a cup of strong coffee as usual but today his mood was a little different as if he was waiting impatiently for something or someone. And Mr Jones came. He sat in front of him with a serious face and put a file on the table which was placed in between them. Allan looked at his father with a smirk as if he had won the war.

Mr Jones- You don't seem to be surprised to see me.

Allan- I was waiting for you. Let's get to the point.

Mr Jones - Mr Rafhe came with a deal.

Allan- I already know.

Mr Jones- How?

Allan - My secretary informed me.

Mr Jones- Since you know everything so what do you want me to do?

Allan- Offer him a marriage between me and his daughter to build a strong partnership.

Mr Jones- Then what about Stella?

Mr Jones changed his expression from shocked to confused one.Allan still having cold and calm expression kept his coffee mug down, got up from his seat and keeping his both hands in each side of his black formal pants looked through the big glass which was on one side of the living room only to be gazing at the beautiful scenery which was of his garden.

Allan- I never said I would marry anyone other than my love.Stella is his daughter. Even if he abandoned her she has his blood. When you take the proposal to them they would get excited and think it's Fexin but at a crucial moment after signing the deal which could lead them to a huge loss if they back off we will tell them that we meant his real daughter who has Rafhe blood. We belong to an upper class and have a statuts which cannot be crushed with some unknown background else it would affect our image and reputation. We cannot afford a loss. And we will also act ignorant of the fact that Stella has been abandoned.

Mr Jones- But if they ask why didn't you tell before signing the deal then?

Allan - We will refute.You will aggressively say that they hid that his daughter is not real daughter because I am sure their greediness will not allow them to say that he is not his real father. And we after doing background check found the truth. We will pressure them to either back off or marry Stella with me.

Mr Jones- Are you doing this because you weren't allowed to meet her.

Allan - You knew. Yes I went to meet her but that hospice care unit is very strict and doesn't allow any outsiders at all . But if I cannot go in then I will get her out. I just want her to be safe.

Mr Jones- Even though it was very difficult I managed to get some information about her. She works there and I have kept a picture of her in the file.You can have a look. Unfortunately I couldn't get her details but I know you have your ways. But I must say my daughter in law has turned out to be very pretty.

Teasing him his father went to his room leaving his flustered son alone.Allan turned back and moved towards the file.His heartbeat was very fast and face showed how nervous he was. With trembling hands he opened the file and took the picture in his hand closing his eyes. He inhaled deeply and opened his eyes to the picture. He gasped.A red tint appeared on his cheeks to see the angel like face which showed the brightest smile ever. His lips curved upwards into a small smile without his knowledge.Her blonde hair was a bit messy which was like slightly flying with small curls on one side of her face.Her face was milky white. Her hazel orbs were glittering but was she happy or sad he couldn't make out.Her eyes were trying to say a lot but couldn't say anything. Seeing her eyes he had an unknown feeling of fear.Negative thoughts were coming to his mind but he brushed it off. He was determined to get his love back fit and fine. From far someone was watching him. It was his mother who smiled and then went away.
