After a six-hour flight, Noah returned to Country P. He had already given his orders for his assistant, Shane White, to take care of the woman who had been fired from the company the previous day. He had set the trap and was waiting for the prey to fall for it.

As soon as he landed, he immediately rushed to the hospital to look for his sister. He was worried to death when he heard that she had met with an accident. He had to personally make sure she was fine, although Ian had already assured him about her health.

When his car stopped in front of the hospital, he ran in the direction of the ward where Rachel was staying in. Looking at him run like a mad man in the hospital, the people made way for him. He looked like a bull which was ready to attack anybody who came in its way.

Noah arrived at the said ward and opened the door with a bang. Although the sound was not too deafening, it was loud enough to wake up the sleeping Rachel. She woke up groggily and looked at her brother who looked like a scared kid who had just escaped from a horror house. He hugged her immediately and took deep breaths to calm his raging heart.

"Calm down, brother. I am fine." She patted him to soothe his anxiety.

After a while, Noah calmed down and he thoroughly took a look at his sister to see if she was gravely injured. Other than some superficial wounds, she looked fine. Only then he felt relieved.

"How did you end up in an accident? Who is the other party? Tell me, I'll take care of them. How dare they hurt my sister?" He seethed. Now his anxiety had switched to anger.

"Hey, hey, hey. Nobody hurt me."

"What do you mean?"

"It was me who rammed into that woman's car. It was my fault."

"Ohh."

"Yes, in fact that woman is now in a coma because of me." Rachel said sadly. She truly regretted her deeds. Because of her, an innocent person's life was at stake.

"Hey, hey relax alright. I'll make sure she gets the best treatment. Anyway why did you do that?" Noah raised his eyebrows. It was unusual for his sister to intentionally ram her car into another.

"I was being absent-minded."

"You were absent-minded when you were driving?" Noah raged. It was fine if she hit a car on purpose or if there was a fault in the car. But she was not concentrating when she was driving? Not acceptable.

"Sorry." Rachel bowed her head.

"Not acceptable. From now on, you are not going to drive at all. I'll appoint a driver for you."

"But brother.." She started.

"No buts. My word is final." He said without leaving any room for negotiation.

Rachel sighed. She knew she could not change her brother's mind. However, she hated having a driver. She felt that she would lose her freedom and someone would always be following her.

"Tell me, what were you thinking about that you didn't even care for your life?" Noah questioned.

"I was thinking about Oliver." Noah was taken aback hearing her words.

"Why were you thinking about him?"

"I met Ivy today."

"Ivy?"

"Aria's twin, Oliver's daughter."

"Oh." 'Why did Rachel meet Ivy?' Noah thought.

"Yes, she is friends with my boyfriend."

"Daniel?"

"Yes."

"Okay. So what happened?"

"Noah, you have no idea how much Ivy has already found out about the case. I was right there when she was discussing it with Daniel."

"You were there when they discussed this important matter?" Noah was shocked.

"Yes. She told me that she trusted me. Brother I feel very sad to keep the truth hidden from them."

"Me too."

"They trust us a lot. I am feeling guilty."

"Me too."

"I want all of these to end."

"Me too."

"Can we tell them about their father?" Rachel looked at Noah expectantly.

"I want to tell them too. But you know how Oliver's condition is, he is slipping in and out of coma. Ian is preparing the antidote for the poison. As soon as he is done, I'll tell everything to them."

"How long will it take?"

"I need to ask Ian about it. He told me that it was almost ready."

"Good."

"Yes, once Oliver's health improves, I'll tell them everything. I don't want to keep this burden too."

"So, how is everything between you and Aria?"

"She is my girlfriend."

"Great."

"I am happy for you."

"Me too. I am happy for myself." Noah said with a smile on his face. Rachel choked on her own saliva on hearing his words. Her brother was praising himself.

'What a narcissist.' She thought.

"Yeah, I forgot."

"Yes." Noah looked at her to continue.

"Jared came to visit me in the hospital."

"Jared? Why did he come to visit you." Noah's gaze became cold at once.

"I don't know. But looking at him made me wanna puke. He was calling me with all endearing words and was being touchy with me."

"That bastard." Noah clenched his fists and roared.

"Do you know him?"

"Have you heard of the Vipers?"

"Is it the gang that is involved in the major criminal activities in the country?"

Noah nodded. "He is the leader of the gang."

"You have got to be kidding me." Rachel was hell shocked. "What does he want of me?"

"I can give you two reasons for him to approach you."

"What?"

"First: He has taken a liking to you and wants to pursue you."

"What?" Rachel looked at him like he was a moron. "No way."

"It is a possibility. Second, he wants to take revenge on me by approaching you."

"What?"

"Probability of the second option is more." Noah reasoned.

"Why does he want to take revenge on you?"

"I destroyed his warehouse where he had kept his imported weapons."

"Damn."

"Hmm. So from now on, not only will you have a driver, but also two bodyguards who will accompany you everywhere."

"Noo." Rachel cried.

"Yes."

"Noah please. I have a driver to look after me. Why do I need two guards?"

"For your safety. You have no idea how dangerous that man is."

"You are annoying you know that right?"

"Thank you."

"I don't know how Aria will cope with you. I pity her. Poor girl."

"What did you say?"

Rachel was busy thinking about her life with three guards keeping a tab on her everywhere she went. So, she did not see the coldness that was brewing in Noah's eyes.

"I hate you." She declared without looking at him.

"Same here." Noah flicked her forehead.

"Ouch." Rachel rubbed her head in pain.

"If you are here to annoy me, go away. I don't wanna talk to you."

"Okay."

Looking at a raging Rachel, Noah was sure that she was completely fine. So, he left her to herself and walked out of the ward. He knew that was not what she had expected of him.

"I hate you." She shouted again and huffed.

Noah chuckled as he turned to look at her and finally walked away. He had some important matters to discuss with Ian regarding the antidote as well as the woman who was severely injured.
