LOGINIn a garden somewhere, the Master is seen watering the plants. Behind him, one of his men is bending near his waist. "Benjamin failed in his task. Xavier saved Iris. Now Benjamin's family is angry with Benjamin. Adil Morgan is in Xavier's custody. James Morgan is anxious. He is planning to approach the authorities to save his son before Xavier could kill him," he shared every single thing in detail. Master looked calm. He placed the water jug down on the ground. "If James approaches the authorities, then Xavier will reveal what Adil tried to do. If it comes to that, Morgans will not keep quiet. They will implicate Benjamin. If that happens, cops will start inquiring about Benjamin and his actions. That's not good for us," he analyzed the situation. "Benjamin tried to request Xavier through Iris to let Adil go. He even threatened to sue Xavier if Adil was harmed. But Xavier didn't relent. Still, Adil is in Xavier Knights' custody. I heard James might approach the authorities," t
In Italy, just as Xavier predicted, Benjamin did indeed dial Iris. And as planned, Tasha answered the call. "Iris, I heard about what happened." Benjamin's voice carried a slight hitch of hesitation and fear. If you are observing keenly, it's easy to overlook it. But Xavier is observing everything keenly. So keenly that he caught everything Benjamin was saying and not verbalizing. "Oh?" Tasha responded, her tone mild, so that Benjamin wouldn't feel that he was not speaking with Iris at all. A pause came from the other end. Xavier narrowed his gaze. Benjamin seems to have identified the change in the voice. Xavier waited for Benjam to point that out. A man who is fighting tooth and nail to separate Iris from Xavier wouldn't hesitate to point that out. But to Xavier's surprise, Benjamin didn't. He carried on as if he were unaware that he was not speaking with Iris. "James called me. Can you tell Xavier to let Adil go?" Benjamin asked steadily, a little too steady to sound natural.
"Benjamin, tell me that you didn't do anything stupid," Desmond demanded, turning pale. Benjamin remained quiet. "I lied to James, saying that Xavier would not be around. He believed it," he revealed. Desmond felt fear. The kind of fear that felt like it was paralyzing his entire body. "Have you lost your mind? Why would you do that? You know very well that Master wants Iris to get married to Adil or someone else. He wants you to separate Iris and Xavier. Then why would you do something so stupid? If Xavier is still in Italy, then he would have already stopped the Morgans. Our plan would have failed. You know how angry the master would be. Do you have a death wish?" Desmond snapped at Benjamin, fearing that their master might kill him for this. Benjamin's eyes turned misty. "I was hoping that it would fail. I wanted Xavier to save Iris," he revealed. Desmond grabbed a glass from his bedside table and threw it at Benjamin, who didn't try to dodge the attack. The glass hit Be
"It would be in your best i interest to leave that Roth's case and go back to where you came from," Matthew threatened Benjamin. Benjamin glared at Matthew. "Looks like all the sons of Desmond, except for the elder son, are idiots. No wonder only Xavier could manage the Knights group better than you all. You are all clueless," Benjamin muttered with irritation. Matthew's face turned red with anger. He couldn't take being insulted by Benjamin like this at his own home. "You blind idiot. How dare you..." Matthew raised his tone to insult Benjamin. But Benjamin glared, a clear warning in his eyes. He is already irritated, and he doesn't have time for Matthew's nonsense. "Go and inform your father before I decide to leave. If I leave, you will be in trouble. Think before acting," he threatened Matthew. Matthew is stunned. Something in Benjamin's tone reminded him of Desmond when he is pissed. The stark similarity blew him off. "Very well. If my dad refused to see you, I will pe
James Morgan and Naomi were seen having their dinner in the Morgan residence. "Dad, brother texted me that Iris went along with Tasha. Seems like his plan worked," Naomi said smugly. "Hmm, once he makes everyone believe that he has an affair with Iris, then even Xavier Knight wouldn't want her anymore," James replied. "Right, she was being so arrogant. So what if her brother hugged another woman in front of her? She made it look like a sin. Now, let's see how she would feel once her pictures with her brother were plastered everywhere. She will lose face and reputation. She could only marry my brother," Naomi agreed. James smirked, thinking about that outcome. Just then, he received a call from Adil. "It's Adil. Looks like the deed is done," James murmured before he answered the call expecting good news. "Son, is it done?" James inquired eagerly. "Dad, it's Xavier Knight. He took Iris away," Adil shared. The fork James was holding slipped past his fingers in shock. He stood
"Your husband, he is on his way to Chelsington now. By the time he sees your message, everything will be finished. He cannot do anything," Adil said smugly. Iris is shocked. Xavier didn't tell her about his plan. He is practically obsessed with her, and she doesn't believe that he would leave without a word. He would have told her, at least called her, if he couldn't tell that in person. "So what if he is not in Italy? The moment he hears about this, that would be the moment he would plan your execution. Don't underestimate him, Adil. Did you forget who put your hand in that cast? You just touched me, and he broke your bones. You are choking me and planning something vile. You expect to survive after this? You are dreaming, Adil. You are delusional beyond expectation," Iris pointed out. Her tone is strained because Adil is choking her. When he heard her words, he let go of her neck on instinct. He looked at his left hand, which was still in a cast. Natasha and Bosco noticed h
Iris stood still, her body as rigid as a board. She knows what's coming. 'Your sister is not a virgin. Xavier Knight would find out the moment he gets intimate with her' Iris couldn't shake those words. She was an orphan who was adopted by the Jones family. They never treated her poorly. Now that
Iris was sitting stiffly as she was held at gunpoint. Chase is sitting beside her with a gun pointing at her head. Someone whom she felt she had seen before in the Knights' residence is driving the car. An hour ago, when she just locked her door, creating an illusion that she was safe. But her il
"Xavier, you are hurting me" Iris whimpered when her wrist started to sting with how tightly he was holding it. They reached Obsidian, and he didn't let go of her hand the entire drive. She sensed that he is angry. May be because she tried to plead for Natasha and Candace. He immediately let go o
Iris Jones, the younger daughter of the Jones family is standing on the Altar, taking her vows with Xavier Knight. "Natasha Jones, do you take Xavier Knight as your lawfully wedded husband" the priest's words felt like a nail on Iris's head. She was not supposed to stand there pretending to be her
