D-CITY AKA CITY OF DESIRE.

D-City is one of the only two biggest cities in the whole of Country M.

Always burstling with life, its inhabitants are also the busiest. Every day is a new day to begin something new. Indeed, D-City is worth the name City of Desire. D-City was a city that could boast of all the latest technology as it had become one of the fastest growing cities in the world. It was a city that made people feel that as long as they are there, their dreams will be fulfilled.

D-City took a major turn in their electronic industry when the new president of Saint Group took over. Saint Group could not be distinguished without the mentioning of the family behind it and off course the man who controlled its stocks and management.

Aaron Saint returned to D-City when the company was facing internal struggles and single handedly, he exposed all the dirty deeds done by the shareholders, bought all the shares and made it his.

Aaron Saint was feared by many people because he was known to be ruthless in his business dealings and paid back everyone who did something to him; good or bad in five folds.

Rumour had it that he was a mysterious man whom only a few knew. This exceptionally handsome heir to the Saint Group Aaron Saint kept a very rather low profile so much such that people thought he was an ugly fat man. He only accepted interviews with a handful of reporters and his picture could not be circulated without his consent.

The few people that knew him wanted to pair him with their daughters but, he never showed interest which made people wonder if he had a different preference in relationships. He had associated with only a few people.

Kash Family Hospital

Kash Family Hospital was one of the best hospitals in the whole of Country M. Equipped with all the latest technological equipment, it served a wide range of patients. The Kash family and the Saint family were known to be on good terms. Even the younger generation of both families had a good friendship.

Seated in Kash Family Hospital ward room 003 was this man, Aaron Saint reading a story book to an unconscious girl lying in bed. Aaron Saint held the story book casually as he got lost in starring at the girl's face, he reminisced on their first meeting. Was it coincidence or pre destined for them to meet? Only the girl in front of him had the answers to the questions he had. It was so late at night, and she possessed a gun with her.

He had just returned to the country in a haste to celebrate his fiancée's birthday and surprise her with a marriage proposal. He had planned everything and got to her apartment only to find her in the arms of another man.

Aaron Saint had gotten shocked by the scene so much that he ran out of the apartment and went to a bar to drink himself to death. His friends used to call him a hopeless romantic whenever he fell in love because he would give his heart completely to the woman who was able to catch his attention. They had warned him against treating Liyah Myers more than she deserved but he didn't care about such things. He had believed in his heart that Liyah Myers was the one for him and had planned to spend the rest of his life with her until that day she betrayed him by getting together with the one man he hated the most in his life, his cousin Josh Saint.

After getting wasted at the bar, he didn't bother to call for a designated driver and got into the car himself to drive. Paying no attention to traffic and other cars on the road, he sped through like a crazed lion on a wide chase. Only when the car hit someone on the road that he sobered up immediately and got out only to see a girl lying in her own pool of blood. The scene shook him out of his drunken state and he immediately called his best friend and sent the girl to the hospital. The girl had been pronounced comatose after the surgery and is been five years since them.

A buzz in his pocket brought his mind which had wondered off back. Removing the phone, he got up from his seat and walked to the door side to receive the call.

''Hello, okay, I will be there in five minutes''.

Aaron Saint hung up and walked closer to the bed and spoke.

''August, I have a meeting. I will be back to finish the story later, okay?'' Aaron Saint smiled and covered the girl with the quilt and went out.

Aaron Saint draped his oversized coat on as he walked past the out-patient department.

The nurses at the OPD gushed at the man as he walked out of the hospital in a charismatic manner. The nurses could not help but be jealous of the girl in room 003 because she had the privilege to be with this man every four hours in a day.

He had never for once missed coming to spend time with the girl ever since he brought her in covered in blood five years ago. That time, he had looked so crazy and screamed at everyone to give way so that the girl could be saved. Alas, their hospital director performed the surgery of the girl himself and she went into coma afterwards. Even though there was nothing wrong with the surgery, no one could explain since some of these incidents happened every day at the hospital.

The girl in room 003 had lost a lot of blood at that time due to the impact of the accident and had to be infused more than 30 times. The man never left her side since then. No one knew the kind of relationship they had but, one thing was for sure, the relationship was not an ordinary one. One of the nurses picked up her equipment and spoke. ''Time to visit my patient''. She walked away towards the ward 003.

IN WARD 003.

The nurse smiled at the girl on the bed warmly and picked the story book from the table and spoke. ''You should wake up soon, Miss Maijune. Everyone is jealous of you but I find you quite pitiful so you just get up soon and live a good life''.

She took the girl's pulse and recorded it. The nurse smiled and spoke again ''Your pulse is good today, Miss. Your heartbeat is stable. I will be back later to change your clothes before your guardian comes back''.

The nurse took her equipment and went out. The girl's little fingers moved and her shut eyelids shivered after the nurse left the room.

SAINT GROUP.

FLOOR OF THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT.

Aaron Saint walked out of the elevator and was met by his assistant Morris. Morris handed a file to Aaron Saint and spoke as they went into the office.

''The auctioning starts tonight at 22:00PM, I just got the information now''

Aaron Saint looked at the file containing a picture of a necklace and spoke.

''Suddenly moving the time of the auctioning to such a late hour is suspicious. Have you booked plane tickets? This is quite interesting"

"Yes, boss. I already asked someone to find out why the time and date has been moved and he said a new investor offered to buy the necklace for five times its price''. Morris said making Aaron Saint to stop and turned to look at him.

With a smirk and cocked brows, Aaron Saint said ''Is this new buyer someone we know?''

''Yes, is your cousin, Josh Saint''. Aaron Saint smirked ''he really tries so hard''

''Boss, I got someone to check his arrival and I found out that he is attending the auction with Miss Myers''.

Aaron Saint gripped the file angrily with a complicated gaze but quickly masked it and spoke.

"Really? They are really a pair made in heaven. Go and get the car ready''.

''Yes, boss''. Morris looked at Aaron Saint worriedly and went out.

Aaron Saint sat on his desk and murmured to himself ''after five years, you are now appearing in front of me, Liyah Myers. You have such guts''.

Aaron Saint met Liyah Myers during his second year in Yale University. They were the two top students in their department with having skipped a couple of grades to get to the University because of her good grades. They used to study together. Liyah Myers was the first to confess her feelings to Aaron Saint and he accepted her and they began a relationship.
