He had both hands placed on her arms whilest he shook her. "Did I not tell you to never call or visit me when I'm at work? You want to embarass me?"

The last thing Yasmin reminisced was waking up in hospital phasing in and out of consciousness every now and then. Despite the fact that she had no idea how she ended up there, she remembered being struck by this horrendous feeling of terror, and a sharp pain across her chest every time she regained consciousness. Her blurry vision would spot the doctors and nurses rushing around in sheer panic then relief after resuscitating her. One time she overhead the doctor confiding in one of the nurses, telling her her case was hopeless and how she was not going to make it. Yasmin’s heart sank when she heard those dreadful words that she bitterly wept when everyone left. On the days that followed, the young woman started drowning in sadness and she was slowly sinking to the bottom of an ocean of desolation that she started to believe she was going to perish along with her forgotten dreams, but deep within her was a flame, a flicker of hope that sought to triumph over her despair,

Please visit me on this address for any help you might need,' then an address and name followed printed in capital letters but in black ink."He's quite a nice man you know," the doctor a short man in his mid fifties, balding head with a few strands of white hair and a long beard said, wearing a faint looking smile while glaring at her in pity." It's not everyday anybody decides to do this much just for a stranger. Especially for him! Do you know who saved your life miss? " He asked with a looked of exhilaration on his face."He's the twenty-year-old son of the wealthiest man in the city, a billionaire who runs one of the largest oil companies in the gulf.

Yasmin followed up on the address to thank the man but almost turned back when she arrived at the gate. The unfathomable site before her had made her too ashamed that she almost gave up on her endeavour. She felt inadequate as she stood before neatly dressed guards carrying rifles. Standing behind a gigantic metal gate, in the distance; about two hundred meters stood a set of three large villas, one was painted in white, one in cream and yellow and the other one seemed like a glassy building. A pond with a fountain stood in the middle of the gate and villas about one hundred meters from the gate and the gravelled road split into three after the fountain. In the front of the first two story villa there were six cars parked, one a pink porch, two Toyotas one black, one white, the kind that sheiks rode in the desert, one a red Ferrari, one a Mitsubishi, and the last a silver-ish- black- ish Lamborghini. Not that she knew the names of these cars, all she saw was a bunch of expensive car

"Thank you, very much young Master," She replied with innocence in her eyes, " but I am already content with the amount you pay me." "Chati!" He replied feigning more annoyance, this time with a smile on his face. "Just accept it because you've worked really hard this month." "Thank you, sir, she retorted with gratefulness in her voice then took a slight bow and left. Ali then later narrated Chati's ordeal and harsh previous life to Yasmin.

Yasmin didnt enjoy her job as young Master Amir' s servant, she was forced to abide by his orders even the most ludicrous ones. The days always ended with the young Master sitting on his couch drunk, smiling while making some ridiculous sexual offer to her then he'd pass out. She would take off his shoes, and jacket and help him to bed. Ali seemed to distance himself more and more from her after the slumber party night's incident. She also figured it was due to his grandma umi passing a few months after Jasmine started working there. Now the middle grand villa was empty. Despite that though, the man was doing successful. He was in his fourth year at a local university. He also worked in for his father during holidays. He had been given a good position in his father oil company due to his cleverness.

Yasmin!’ A happy Nadia smiled as she opened the door for her. “You're back!” They hugged like they hadn't seen each other in decades. "What took you so long? I called you here weeks ago.” Her fathers husky voice could be heard from behind the door as he drew nearer popping up behind Nadia. His tone was harsh as usual, no hello Yasmin, nothing… just a straight up bold question. He seemed to have gotten more wrinkles on his face despite the fact that he always had a scowling look on.
