Patrick asked in disarray, "Who is Emily?"

Alan glanced at his bodyguard. He took just a few moments to tape Patrick's mouth forcefully. Terrence grounded his teeth, but he wasn't at the stage to do anything.

​​

He began to unfold what had happened when Emily was born.

--- Past ---

Terrence was just seven years old when his mother gave birth to twins. He was undoubtedly possessive when all were giving importance to the unborn children ignoring him. Hence, when all were sleeping, he had dropped a baby in the garden near the hospital.

He returned to pick up another baby to leave it elsewhere, but all were awakened and were searching for the twin baby. He was frightened imagining what they would do if they got to know he placed the baby in the park. He again went to the garden to bring the baby, but it wasn't there.

When he came back, he promptly said as he broke down, "I am not finding the baby." But all assumed he was weeping because the baby was lost and didn't ask him further and calmed him down.

Then the baby that was in the crib started wailing, missing its twin. It affected that baby psychologically, so the elder's attention again went to the baby girl and they ignored Terrence. They lodged a complaint and searched but didn't find the second baby while he felt all alone, but he never dared to harm the baby again in the scare.

Melissa Morse was brilliant but prone to diseases, so she was constantly looked after by her parents, which always irked Terrance. Because of all that, his mind switched to boozing, fooling around from a young age as fifteen.

He completed his education on the fifth trial and wished to look after the business but Melissa was remarkably smart for her age and she was learning in the home and attending the exams so by the age of nineteen she completed her graduation. The siblings were at the stage to enter the company.

Terrence was teased and bullied by his own friends, saying he was just useless and nobody cares about him. His father gave chance to both mentioning the one who was efficient will take his position so Melissa started working, sometimes from home and rarely in the Morse Industries.

He was plotting how to hold Melissa from taking over the CEO position but she met with an accident hurting her spinal cord permanently landing her in the wheelchair.

Delighted by the news, Terrence assumed he could have the company. However, as soon as Melissa accepted her disability to walk, their father appointed her as the CEO whereas Terrence was just a manager of the Human resource department.

He aimed to kill Melissa many times, but she always won life. Both got married, he had a son and Melissa had a daughter after 7 years of her marriage, but her husband lost his life in the military mission.

Then their parents passed away and the family advocate read the will which clearly says, everything equally belongs to their grandchildren. Terrence thought if he has more children, he can control Morse Industries and become CEO so despite him and his wife being forty plus, his wife conceived but during birth, he lost both wife and the child.

Since Melissa wasn't going to marry again, he was targeting Erica but he met Oliver Cooper at the business party. While talking he had seen Melissa's picture in his phone and he asked without filters to his mouth, "Do you know my sister?"

Oliver turned down, "No, I am meeting her tomorrow on a business deal."

Terrence thought he might be wrongly interrupted and overlooked the topic until Oliver saw Melissa the next day. Just the expression on Oliver's face rose a doubt in Terrence's mind. Without letting them talk he purposefully fainted and clutched Oliver's hand purposefully.

Having no choice, Oliver went to the hospital. Terrence woke up in the hospital and spoke to Oliver who was curious how Melissa Morse looked like his late wife Emily parker.

While talking, Terrence spoke about Melissa and Oliver spoke, "President Morse and my wife look more than ninety percent the same. I am not understanding how Parker and Morse can have the same looks."

Without explanation, Terrence knew the real identity of Emily. He sent Oliver and lied to Melissa saying Skyline president tried to use underhand methods with him and they shouldn't have any projects with them so that permanently avoided Oliver from visiting Melissa.

Terrence later got to know Emily died a long back but she has a daughter. He tried to kill her but got caught by Oliver who soon realized Emily was Morse and Aria has the right over Morse.

While Oliver was busy with Terrence, he noticed Saira Hayek trying to get Oliver so he helped her with a DNA certificate and kept Oliver busy with Calvin.

When his plan was failing to kill Aria, he decided to kill Oliver first so that everything would be charged on Saira or Calvin. He was successful but the security around Aria increased when she went to Morgan Mansion. He was gathering information from Saira and attacking Aria.

He also instigated Jasper Madison against Aria but she was safe then she disappeared without a trace. As soon as he got to know she returned and planned to marry Alan Morgan, he decided to manipulate the proofs he had gathered and presumed he was successful until he got to know Aria and Alan were married for three years and played back until he got caught.

Alan rose to his feet and swung his balled fist with all his might right on Terrence's face.

"Ahh..." Terrence fell by the single punch and the pain tensed every muscle in his body.

Alan couldn't believe Terrence did all those just for the petty shares and assets. He couldn't believe he played everyone around Aria just to kill her or take her under his control. He was glad he returned to her life on time and she is safe.

Alan couldn't control himself thinking what Aria went through all these years and raised his hand but the rows of cops entered inside and stopped him.

Terrence held his jaw and spit a tooth out and incoherently spoke, "Arrest him, he drugged my son with poison and knocked me."

Deputy police chief bowed his head at Alan and said, "President Morgan, we will take care from here." They had seen everything live which was relayed through the secret camera.

They took Terrence who started screaming to let him go. Patrick was shaking his head crawling back thinking they were going to beat him but Alan's bodyguard forcefully removed the tape to hear him wincing in pain.

"Antidote Antidote... Give me..." He almost held Alan's leg but the latter kicked his hand away saying, "It was a glucose capsule."

Then Patrick discerned whatever he felt was his imagination due to fright.
