"How did you know that they would listen to you and increase the amount of ransom" asked Moosa while driving and looking at the rare view mirror to find that Shehryaar's search teams have joined them on the national highway."When we were taken into the warehouse I was not completely knocked out like you. I overheard one of the terrorist saying that they must keep us alive for Osmani. And I knew about the origins of Talibans. These men worked for D. Order 1 initially but due to internal politics and intrusion from porous borders the order got divided in two prominent barrel of monkeys . One acquired physical control over the headquarters and others dispersed with heavy but less armaments. The ones who attacked belonged to the second as the relied on Khurram osmani for their revival. This gave me their rein. Remember the first lesson of manipulation that money, love and patriotism can change anyone's character. That's what I did' said Irtaza looking outside the window.Irtaza had quest

Business and mafia was now managed by Shehryaar as he was not in a situation to look after anything. His mind a pure chaos. Unable to see through anything.Another unholy night fell, Irtaza had another bottle of alcohol in his hand, slow poison as he called it. He stood infront of Zahra's room and was thinking hard whether to step inside or not, whether he would be able to handle it or not.Slowly, turning the door knob he dragged his feet in. He could see clearly all corners, her memories were everywhere but again just like other days those memories came running into his mind when he had manhandled her, all those scenes as if flashing in front of his eyes."I am sorry Zahra so so sorry" Irtaza drawled and that's when tears flowed down his ashamed face."For everything. When you rejected me in front of everyone that day, I got so mad. I had to claim you by any means. And when you betrayed me it was like as if you were pulling it in my face that I couldn't have you. I controlled your l

"Who is it?" Shehryaar groaned, as he got a call from someone which broke his deep slumber."Boss""Yes?""Irtaza sir... he has gone out somewhere at this hour of night. He looked in a hurry""Ok" he simply replied and cut the call. And then he called Moosa informing him of the situation and then went to pick up Moosa. As they both met, Moosa had already opened up his laptop, locating Irtaza's location by his tracker. The day Irtaza came back, Shehryaar had asked him to get a tracker which he did."Left from the first turn. He is going towards The Ravi" Moosa told and Shehryaar increased the speed of his car. There men were alreadly following them in parados.The night was dark but something about it made it look more darker to Shehryaar. He just hoped Irtaza would be fine. The day he had gotten the news about Zahra's abduction, he was so vulnerable. Irtaza was expressive but at times and those were the rarest of times. It was not easy to bring out what he feels inside him so easily.

"Wh..at?" she suddenly ran out of words. The reality dawning on her. "Yes, Zahra" "So that means they were your men who forced us to leave our home?" Zahra asked. "Yes , but they did not have slightest idea about Mujtaba uncle" said Irtaza, "I never knew that they are harassing my uncle too. My second and third in command usually ensured the paying back of loan." "I-" she was confused. Utterly confused. "And Zahra, you are pregnant. I received your medical reports" Zahra's reflexes as if paralysed. It was thunderclap over a thunderclap. She couldn't come up with anything. "But ..but the pills?" she whispered. "Were expired" replied Irtaza. "I don't know what to say...I need time." she couldn't complete her sentences as she didn't know how. She was super stunned. Irtaza demanded to be discharged by evening to which the staff quitely complied , it was obvious that hospital was funded by Syed group. A weight had been lifted off Zahra's chest but a new worry loaded on her should

At the university, on insistence of her friend she went out for shopping that too without security and she couldn't inform him as her phone's battery was dead and her friend's phone had ran out of balance. She didn't want to go without informing him but her friend was insisting too much. "Hmn?" he slightly raised his brows when she didn't answer. "Out with my friend... to a restaurant," she answered. "And did you inform me?" "I was about to... but my phone ran out of battery" she mumbled the last part. "Then why didn't you tell by using someone else' phone?" he interrogated She couldn't find any answer to that. Her friend was persisting too much and she wasn't able to think straight so she just go with the flow. "And you didn't even take the security along with you?" he asked again, the slight anger was evident in his voice which made her heart skip a beat. "She felt awkward in my guard's presence," she replied, looking down. She knew she was at fault. He walked towards her
