There was a lot of speculation and how it was done but no one can really bring out concrete proof. One thing's for certain and that is she moved from the spa resort after she watched it burn down to the ground to the Middle Eastern continent.
From there she had resorted to stealing anything from food, jewelry, clothing, anything she could get her hands on and no one would ever suspect her. She always had a scapegoat waiting to be blamed for her wrongdoings and they would have their hands chopped off instead of hers
Day after day, night after night she would stalk the best clubs trying to catch any big fish that would provide her funds and information. She knew there was no other man in this world that was like Avery Steel but she needed to find someone to manipulate to take her back home.
One night as she was working the bars she overheard two men talking about a new business man who had struck it rich. That this Emroy Masama had spent a good eight years of his life trying to find a legendary mine with the most captivating diamonds in the world. His luck had finally turned around and he was scrambling to get this in place.
She walked over to the men that were gossiping, sat down and turned on her charm. She needed Emroy's information so she played them like fiddles. The moment she got what she wanted she slipped them a little something into their drinks and walked away. Like flies, the men dropped to the ground dead.
Her plan was set in motion, she played a damsel in distress as human traffickers tried to kidnap her in the market. Needless to say Emroy Masama stepped in and bought her freedom. She told him she could never repay the amount of money he had given the men for her freedom and offered her body to him.
Emroy took her offer and used her as a private assistant. The days turned into weeks, the weeks into months then finally after a year of them working so closely together Emroy confessed his feelings. By then he had already established a mini empire in the Middle Eastern continent and was ready to expand his business.
Under a moon lit dinner Agni responded to his confession with her own. That she did have feelings for him but her heart would always belong to her long-lost lover and ran away from dinner with tears streaming down her face. Emroy was not willing to give up what he believed was true love.
He chased after Agni and ask her what he needed to do to have her open up her heart to him. She said that her love was only meant for one and that one is already long gone so her heart refused to love ever again.
After much coercing Emroy convinced Agni to give him a chance. That he was willing to go under the knife for her and transform his face into her long-lost lover so that he could mend her heart. That his face was just something superficial and he was willing to change himself to be with her. He lightened his skin, bleached his hair, even cut and styled his hair the same way. The only thing he could not or would not change was his amber colored eyes.
Emroy wanted her to see her lost lovers face but look into his eyes, to see him and not her lost love so that they could go down the path of unity.
Agni's mental capacity stabilized after she agreed and accepted Emroy's conditions. It was hard at first, Agni assumed the role of boss as Emroy recovered and soon enough she was able to open up shop on the main continent. After what seemed a life time, they started a happy life together and eventually married.
It was a small wedding as Emroy had no family on the main continent an Agni was supposedly an orphan. So it was just the two of them, the minister and a standby witness.
Once Emroy was finally in top shape and assumed his position as big boss, Agni had already secretly opened an account. She used her funds to track down Avery Steel and report on his life. Once a week she would read the reports about Avery the most exciting for her was how he entered Steel Enterprises. He went in as a lowly grunt worker but she knew he was aiming for something higher.
She believed that no one knew Avery better than she did and to prove it she strived to match him. She convinced her husband to let go of the business that they had established as dealers and to start getting into the trading business. They had built enough capital back in the Middle Eastern continent and so it was nothing for them to try something new.
Agni went to formal events, spoke to socialites, mingled with the celebrities and left her husband to do all the finer details of the business. After 2 years of hard labor, scheming, backstabbing, blood, sweat and tears, they finally establish themselves as diamond traders. Money was rolling in through the door but it wasn't enough.
Now that Agni how to establish a fountain of wealth in her bank account she was able to put her plan into motion. She was able to hire a dispensable, homeless person to do her dirty work. She educated him, burned off his fingerprints, gave him an identity and bought him a crappy car.
She already knew that Grace and Avery had married long before she moved back into the continent. She had someone keep a close eye on Grace to find out her routine and personal habits. She chose a day that Grace needed to stay late, there was a week left to opening night and she knew how dedicated she was to her performance.
Agni found out that Avery was going home late with a bottle of champagne for him and Grace to celebrate him winning the board of directors over and becoming the new CEO of Steel Enterprises.
She had the homeless man sitting at the end of the road with his headlights turned off, waiting, watching and excited. The moment that Grace stepped out of the building, he turned on his car, shift his gears and watched her as she took her first steps onto the sidewalk. Within moments all anyone had heard was the revving of an engine and the blood curdling scream of Grace Steel.
Agni was delighted her plan of a hit-and-run was successful. She paid off the police to half a** the case. Grace never found out who ran her over and left her for dead, all Avery could do was track down was the crappy car that belong to someone else who had conveniently sold it to an anonymous person months prior. Agni decided to keep the homeless person as he was incredibly loyal to her while Carl never regretted his decision or looked back.
From then on every report that she received from Carl about Avery and Grace arguing made her feel like she was on ecstasy. Every time her husband came home from work she would drag him off to the bed. They would spend countless hours rocking each other's world's. Depending on where she was when she received the report, their love making couldn't wait for the bedroom.
Emroy thought his wife was becoming more spontaneous while she hide the truth to their embrace. When she finally had enough of the fake Avery, she decided it was time to walk back Avery's life and en his suffering by have him return to his rightful place.
When she heard that he was sitting alone on a bench near the park she decided it was time to appear as the angel he needed. She drove herself to a side street close to where he was, she took a couple of calming breathes and stepped out of the car. She couldn't contain her excitement, she was practically running towards him but the moment her eyes caught a glimpse of his face she stopped dead in her tracks.
Avery's golden brown hair was now a dull chestnut brown, his face aged horribly, his eyes looked sunken and bloodshot while the rest of him just sagged on the bench like a used puppet. She couldn't believe it, she didn't want to believe it! The Avery before her was not even a fraction of what he used to be in his youth. Five years, it had only been five years but he had become a shell of his former glory.
She turned around and dragged herself back towards the car. She drove herself home in a daze and walked in. She sat on her bed, curled up into a fetal position and started talking to herself. "That Avery is a fake! No Avery is Avery and you have always loved Avery! But that Avery was not the man you fell in love with... is he broken.... no, no, no Avery is... Emroy... Emroy is the one from my memories. Avery is Emroy, Emroy is Avery, Emroy is the one I love, the one .... for me, he is the true Avery!"
Another year flew by and Angi was excited to be expecting. In her mind Emroy was the one and only true Avery in the world and she was too happy to able to bring his child into the world. As the months flew by, Emroy was ecstatic to find out that they were going to have twin girls. To Agni's disappointment they were having girls, she wished with all her heart to have a mini Avery in her arms but she washed that thought away when she saw her husband's beaming face.
He was happy so she was happy.
After the twins were born, Agni was actually a very attentive mother. She was always involved in everything. She treated them as her little angels and personally watched their development. She wanted them to be as brilliant, loving and outstanding as their father however she realized one undeniable truth.
The girls looked nothing like her Avery. They had golden hair, amber eyes, fair complexion and looked more like a mini her then anything. Friends told her that 4 year olds are always changing and shouldn't feel concerned about them grow into their looks.
Agni couldn't wait she needed to find her husband now. She needed another baby and "No" was not an answer. After almost a year of trying, the couple were heartbroken. They couldn't understand how they couldn't conceive when they were successful before.
To Agni's horror the birth control she had been using for the past few years caused a side effect, it made her infertile. Her world crumbled around her the moment she heard the news. Nothing really seemed to matter anymore. Emroy tried his best to cheer her up but it was useless.
That is until he got her invited to an art auction for a charity event. She was very unwilling to go at first but the moment she came back her usual bright aura was shinning everywhere. Emroy was delighted with himself that his suggestion brought back his old wife and was able to get back to work without regret.
Agni got to work, researching and scheming. Her social life became very busy that she started to neglected her children. That is until they started to get sick. Emroy tried to inquire about their sudden illness but Agni just brushed him off saying "Poor things were making themselves sick to get my attention."
Emroy shrugged and thought nothing of it. That is until Laila became hospitalized and Loreley came out with the truth. It seemed that the girls would have special tea parties with Agni and were always made to drink a funny looking flower tea. They told her they always felt sick after they drank it but she didn't listen.
Emroy flew in the best doctor to check for poisoning and found that in fact Agni was giving them a tea made from a flower back home known for it's nightshade abilities when brewed. Emroy was furious and swore the moment Laila recovered he would take them away from her and file for divorce.
After Agni happily came back from a socialite tea party she found her husband packing his bags. She was shocked that she didn't have to do any of the dirty work to make him leave but the moment he said he was going to expose her wrong doings to the world and shame her it crossed a line. She begged for his forgiveness and asked for another chance.
Emroy couldn't look at his wife the same way. When he walked away and went into his children's room to pack he received a phone call. There was an emergency with the mining and they needed him there right away. With a heavy heart he kissed his girls good bye and went off to extinguish the fire. Unfortunately for him he never made it.
After searching for his plane and body they only found the black box with the last screams of the people on the private plane. Emroy's death was officially announced. Agni soaked up the attention and told everyone she and the girls would take sometime to grieve back in Emroy's country.
Almost a year passed and Agni came back with the girls more powerful then ever. She found more mines, became well connected with the powers of the Middle Eastern continent, became a well established trader and decided she would be establishing her own jewelry shops.
Nothing was going to stop her from her goals especially when Carl reported Grace Steel's passing. She was delighted it finally happened but she knew she needed to wait she didn't need to see a broken Avery again. When she saw his transformation at the art auction she was in awe. He had become more mature, more mystery, more captivating it was intoxicating.
She needed him to recover from his grief and look for her. So in the mean time she need to invest in her dowry to him and wait until he was ready to have a wife once more.
