Calvin, Alan, and Aria had expected that past.

Elder Parker's eyes were bloodshot and asked, "Is she behind the attacks on you?"

​​

Aria glanced at Saira and spoke, "Her main aim is Skyline. She wanted to kill me and get Skyline under Brother Calvin with a fake certificate. Since she missed it, she wanted to separate me and Alan so that she could kill me easily but she didn't know Alan was with me all along. Then when Alan forced brother Calvin to a dead end, she thought she could make me feel guilty due to Dad and leave Skyline and Cooper assets to Brother Calvin. She tricked Brother Calvin for nine years."

Then she went to Saira, "Seriously? He is your own blood and flesh. Do you have any idea what he has gone through? How can you do that to your own son?"

"Arrie" Kite shouted when Saira clutched a pocket knife at Aria's neck twirling her around.

Aria smiled, "Really?"

Alan didn't move from his place. He knew Aria let Saira do it because she wanted the family to see the true colors of Saira and don't believe her tears or made-up stories.

Saira eerily laughed seeing all panicked but next second.

"Ahh..."

Aria twisted her hand away which was holding a knife. "Auntie Saira, thanks to your attacks and plans, it really encouraged me to learn some self-defense. Your poor attack is a piece of cake."

Then Aria slammed her on the ground hurting her back severely.

Saira howled in pain but nobody dared to enter between Aria and her.

Alan couldn't understand why Aria couldn't see others beating anybody but when somebody attacks her or him, she will be more brutal than the other person.

Aria turned to Abel who initially was furious now frightened seeing how Aria flipped Saira on the ground over her shoulder. "Uncle Abel, I need to check your bedroom."

Abel nodded profusely to give his consent. Alan called his men in who went to the room Aria pointed.

Ignoring the groans, Aria spoke, "Saira Hayek always diverted our teams to suspect Uncle Abel, Brother Calvin, and Sister Kite. You three have straight nature, if you don't like it, you don't act so until she disclosed this lie, we suspected everyone but not her."

Aria pulled Saira to sit and calmly asked, "Will you reveal the complete truth? Or shall I help you?"

All thought Saira was soft-natured but she smirked at Aria, "You will not live peacefully even if you kill me."

Elder Parker pointed his cane at her in furry, "Haven't we looked after you well enough? How can you play with my grandchildren's life?"

Soon Alan's men returned holding electronic devices, "President Morgan, It's a satellite phone. Password protected."

Saira started laughing, "You can't reach them."

Alan ignored her and ordered, "Get our laptops."

Aria asked Saira, "You are trying to protect that man. Do you think he will protect you if I send you to jail?"

Saira's expression changed.

Aria continued, "If he really wanted you, why would he have left you here instead of keeping you with him."

Saira avoided Aria's eyes telling herself, 'She is just provoking me to hear about him.'

Abel asked, "Who is helping her?"

Aria went to Alan, "Unsure." She looked at the caretaker who was standing away, "Please take grandfather to his room."

"Arrie..."

Aria spoke, "I'm sorry, grandfather. Saira Hayek will be detained today. I am done with this hide and seek. I can't put Rian's life in danger if she targets him again."

Before Elder Parker, Saira spoke in irritation, "Rian Rian Rian, who the freak is he? Am I an idiot to target nobody?"

Aria and Alan looked at each other. They initially knew three were there. Jasper Madison and the other two.

When Saira Hayek's name popped, they had completely dissolved the third man thinking it was completely Saira Hayek. They had thought Saira fooled Lucas with Skyline's name.

Aria and Alan said in unison, "The one who helped Lucas Cooper."

Aria sat down thinking they hadn't completed even half of the messy puzzle.

Calvin asked, "What's wrong?"

Aria responded, "There is one more who tried to pull Morgan's support from me even before Alan and I were together. When I lost Dad and Alan became My legal guardian."

Elder Parker asked, "So these are the reasons why you two hid about your marriage."

Aria nodded and he continued, "I'm sorry Alan. I misunderstood you."

Alan took the laptop as he respectfully replied, "It wasn't your mistake. I purposefully portrayed it."

They sent Elder Parker to rest. Alan started to hack the satellite phone. He calibrated the antenna to point it towards the satellite for the best reception. Since they didn't know the exact location of the satellite, it took time to which Saira continued laughing at them.

Calvin and Rachel watched Alan's slender fingers dancing on the keyboard. Alan spoke after ten minutes, "143 degrees east."

Aria's fingers swiftly moved and spoke, "Communication and Broadcasting satellite, MBC. Morse Broadcast and communication from country A of Morse Hitech."

Saira paled hearing Aria. The latter asked, "Shall we call the police? Or hear the story?"

Abel spoke, "I want to know the truth. I had thought she loved me all these while."

Aria nodded and sat in front of Saira, "I will help you speak."

Aria held Saira's soft hand and started twisting her finger with a faint smile on her face. Except for Alan, nobody could say what exactly she was doing.

Saira yowled out in pain, "Ah..."

Aria left her finger and spoke. "I had only Dad. Do you have any idea how it feels to have nobody? You grew up with parents, you have such a good family but that didn't fill your stomach."

Aria snapped her finger when Saira lowered her cry. "Ahhh... Let... me... go..."

Aria didn't care about her incoherent words, "What had I done to you? I had treated you so well. How did you repay me and my Dad? By taking his life."

Aria snapped another finger to hear her cry in pain and spoke, "I will tell... I will tell..."

Alan took Aria away whose eyes were bloodshot, clenching her teeth to stop feeling the pain of the past. He didn't know Vince had taught her torture methods too. Her execution was perfect.

Aria huddled next to Alan and all heard Saira speak as she sobbed holding her palm.

"When Emily and I went on my first arranged date..."
