Alex was in his office. His elbow was on the table and his chin was placed on his hand. He was in deep thought.

He was thinking deeply about what happened in the morning. He still couldn't believe that his father could come to such a low level to take Avery out of his life. But even after 28 years, his father still does not fully know him. For his father, he was an arrogant billionaire who opposed his father's every decision.

His father did not know that his son was not only the chairman of the ELIZA group of the industry but also the famous King of the underworld whose identity was known to very few people but everyone knew his existence.

Everyone knows about the Underworld King.

He was thinking when someone knocked on his office door and Alex let that person in.

The door to his office was opened and Yolanda entered the office.

Alex was surprised to see Yolanda suddenly in the office but he didn't show it on his face. He gave her a light smile and asked her to sit down. Seeing the lack of expression on Alexander's face, All of Yolanda's excitement vanished into thin air. She didn't think Alex would still be as cold and poker as before. She had expected little change in him. But ignoring that thought, she sat down on the chair and started talking.

The conversation between the two lasted for about half an hour but the conversation was full of professionalism. Alex asked Yolanda more questions about her professional life than her personal life. From Alex's behaviour, she felt that Alex had made no difference after seeing her face to face after so many years.

Alex already knew about the movie cast so it was not a surprise to see her there but he didn't think she would meet him personally so he was a bit surprised to see her in the office.

Yolanda was tired of his professional talk and finally, she asked him on her own. "We've met after a long time so let's go out for dinner today."

"Sorry, but I can't come today. I have another plan. So I am sorry." He said simply.

"I can guess what your plan is." Alex raised his eyebrows at her sentence and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Hey C'mon Alex. Today's weather is very good .....Probably today will be the time to go on a long drive with your sweetheart. Your girlfriend....Hmm.... What is her name... Ha....Yes...Clara. If I'm not wrong, you plan to go on a date with Clara."

As soon as he heard Clara's name, he clenched his jaw and tightened his grip on the pen in his hand.

Yolanda had heard about Alex and Clara's affair and had seen photos of them in newspapers many times. She also knew that Alex always took her to business gatherings. So today Yolanda wanted to know what is the importance of Clara in Alex's life. And that's why she brought up the topic purposely.

He wanted to tell Yolanda that there was no connection between Clara and me and I am a married man but he couldn't open up to Yolanda so soon. Even though Yolanda was his friend 'Probably Group Friend', he could not trust her so much for his personal life. He had a trust issue.

After talking with Alex for a while, she came out of his office. She was happy to meet Alex after so many days but she was a little upset because of one thing. And that Alex was still as cold as before.

Yolanda, Alex, Max and Lucas were all in the same school and college. Although Yolanda was their junior, she was their group member.

Talking to Lucas and Max was not a difficult task for the other students but not all of them dared to approach Alex. Alex was like a tough stone in his academic year. In college, he was awarded the title of Cold Stone Man. Yolanda had never seen him talk to any girl in her academic life. Although Lucas and Max were not hard people, they were not very involved in another student's group.

Lucas had the title of playboy where Max was a normal guy with his green eyes.

Yolanda still had no idea how many girls Lucas had dated at that time. He walked around with the identity of a playboy in college until she came into his life. By the time she arrived, playboy Lucas had become a complete gentleman.

But at the same speed that she came in Lucas's life, she also went back with that speed. But she had changed Lucas forever. Lucas was not the same as before. Lucas and Alex's friendship was not the same as before. He has not dated any girl since then. He had focused his full attention on his career and today he has become a successful person.

With all this in mind, she crossed a long corridor and reached were her bodyguards were standing.

Seeing their madam, they all took protective poses around Yolanda and went to the shooting site.

Yolanda was at the peak of her career these days. She was the most costly model in the country along with businesswomen who had a line to sign several projects...

He was typing on the keypad of the laptop at a very super fast speed. He had been doing this for the last three minutes. The information he had gathered at the risk of his life was not in the chip.

"Fuck..." He cursed, "How can this chip be empty?" He slapped his fist hard on the bed and angrily threw the very expensive laptop which hit the ground with a loud sound and the screen exploded.

He picked up his mobile phone on the side table and dialled Max's number. Max received his call within three rings.

Without greeting Max, he simply asked, "Max, anyone had touched my clothes." At first, Max had no idea what Noah was talking about.

" What do you mean. What with your clothes."

"My torn clothes which were kept in a safe box and from which I had removed the information chip," Noah told Max gritting his teeth.

"No one," Max answered him immediately. But hearing Noah's next sentence, he was as shocked as Noah was when he saw the chip empty. "Someone had touched my clothes because this chip is empty."

While talking on the phone, Noah did not notice that Emily was standing in the doorway and listening to his conversation. When Emily came, Noah was so busy with his work that her presence did not make him aware. She was about to give him a voice to gain his attention but she was frightened to see the changed expression on his face and seeing him throwing the laptop, she jumped in her place.

When he found out from Max that he knew nothing about it and would investigate the matter when he arrived at the hospital, he cut off the call and waved both hands through his hair in frustration. This information was very important to him. With the help of this information, a way to get closer to him would have been found.

He closed his eyes and opened them. He normally rolled his eyes from the room and saw Emily standing in the doorway. Fear and anxiety were evident on her face. He saw that she was looking in the same direction. And when his eyes followed her gaze, his eyes rested on the broken laptop. He Signed and looked at her again.

"When did you come?" It was important for him to know when she came. Because he didn't want her to be a witness to everything he had done a while ago.

"Five minutes before you blow up the laptop." But from her mouth he heard only what he feared.

Her gaze still hadn't moved from the laptop.

Don't look at that broken laptop in such a way like it is one of the wonders in the world. She broke her gaze because of him and looked at him. Taking the first step, she came into the room and went near his bed.

She placed the food basket in her hand on the table and pulled out the lunch box. She was doing her work but Noah's words were still running through her head.

Her brain was repeatedly asking her what information was in that chip. Noah's eyes were fixed on Emily's lost state. with his right hand, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him in a swift move which caused her body hit to his chest.

"Noah, What are you doing. Leave me. You have not yet recovered and this may reopen your wounds."

"shu shy...." He put his finger to her lips. "You have started talking a lot these days. There was a time when I was tired of hearing anything from your mouth."
