In the unknown address of the mastermind, Martha was looking through some files with her bodyguard. It was information regarding Wish lennon.
" So, a new girl is trying to ruin her wedding with William Brent." she read on the files. " A mute girl and on top of that.....supposedly dead? Thats interesting." she rubbed her chin. " How did she come back?"
" Maam, i am still investigating. Their information is super private." the bodyguard replied.
" What must it be to be that....private...."
A knock came from the door of the hall. " Open it. Looks like our dear client has arrived."
As she had said, Wish stood by the door waiting to come in.
" Good afternoon Ms.Lennon."
" Good afternoon Martha."
They took a seat like the first day at the edges of the long table. Her bodyguard left the two alone now. Wish hadnt got much sleep yesterday night thinking about today. A lot of things were going inside her head.
" I have been preparing some plans according to your interest. " Martha pushed her glasses up, " you have a pretty complex goal."
That made Wish a little nervous. Infact it really was complex. destroying her own father's company and on top of that, he was also a client so he knew some of the plan structure. It would be difficult to carry on the plan without him noticing. And obviously, her father might have suspected she would target his company.
" But dont worry Ms.lennon." Martha spoke up seeing her worried face, " As you know, all of my clients have been successful....100%."
Wish nodded feeling a little relieved. She was a client of an excellent mastermind, who could possibly not make any mistakes. " So, what have you came up till now?"
" To be honest, we are half way done."
" Already??" Wish asked shocked. Didnt she just say it was complex? Masterminds really were different breeds.
Martha chuckled a little but also expecting her reaction. She pulled a board by her side and started writing on it. " We work really hard. That is why we ask you to trust us fully. Do you understand, Ms.lennon?"
She clasped her hands watching Martha write something on the board. " Yes, i know. I was just....a little shocked."
" For now, the most basic thing is making connections." she wrote on the board, " You already have an upper hand for it Ms.lennon."
Wish gave a confused stare.
" Your fiance, William Brent."
She realised that her relation with William alone was very strong. He was the heir of a top company anyways.
" Just keep a good relation with your fiance and there wont be much problem with this step." Martha continued, " Make sure nothing ruins it. And DONT let anybody come in between."
Suddenly, the thought of Julie popped in her head. She was definitely trying to ruin their marriage. As soon as she came back, her motives were pretty clear. Like she wanted the world to know that William belonged to her. Would William turn his back on Wish?
" I know what you are thinking, Ms.lennon." Martha stepped closer.
" Wh-what do you mean?"
" You have something worrying you, right?" she talked like she was reading Wish's mind. " Julia Wilson."
Wish quickly raised her head, " How did you know?"
" A mute girl. 24 years old and a childhood friend of William who came back one week before. Also everybody thought she was dead."
"I said how did you know?"
" Ms.lennon," Martha leaned on the table hands folded, " It is our duty to keep the clients free of any dangers or interventions when carrying out the plan. And i was just making sure that Julia Wilson wouldnt interfere with your relation with William. Because you need the support of your fiance."
Wish was speechless by her words. So they actually did research on her personal lives too? Just for the sake of this plan? No matter how you looked at it, it seemed fishy to her. "How much more do you know? Are you.....following me too??"
" Maam, lets not go beyond that."
" Beyond that? So are you really doing it or not?"
" I have been telling you to trust us and the process. Please-"
" No! this is too much." Wish stood up and stormed to the door, " I dont want to do this..."
When she opened the door, the bodyguards were still there, blocking her path. " Move." the men didnt react at her orders.
" You have already chosen to work together with us, Ms.lennon." Martha said still in the same position. " Once, i have chosen my client....they cannot leave unless the plan has succeeded."
Wish slowly turned back with wide eyes, " Are you really.....doing this?"
Martha stood up properly with a serious look. Her eyes looked sharp making her more intimidating, " How much do i know?..... want me to tell you?"

" Oh!...." Lucas stopped infront of Lisa, " you are here early."
Lisa gave a brief glance at him, walking ahead. He tilted his head in confusion. " Want to visit a cafe?"
She shook her head, " I want to go to that park."
He was surprised that she wanted to go to a park. He thought they were having lunch together. After a silent walk to the park, he finally spoke up, " Are you feeling okay?"
Lisa stopped walking, looking down. After the night of golden party, her father had told her the secret plan. She was utterly shocked and disgusted with him and mother. How could they come up with a such a plan? But her father had threatened if she ever told this to anyone, not her but the person who listened would be going through the punishment.
For the last few days, this was the only thing going in her mind and she couldnt even speak to anyone. Why did she have to go through this torture. " I think i know something, i dont deserve to know. I cannot even speak about it." her voice broke all of a sudden. It really was getting difficult for her to shut up.
Lucas snapped his head to her. 'know something?' was it related with the hotel? " What is it, Lisa? know something about what?"
She covered her mouth, tears welling in her eyes, " I cannot tell it anyone. Especially you!" if her father knew about Lucas, he would do horrible things to him.
" Especially me?.....Lisa, dont worry about it." Lucas tried to calm her down. He was actually getting impatient to know. This could help Wish with her revenge. " Tell me."
" No!" she quickly wiped her tears, taking a deep breath, " I was just stressed..."
Lucas didnt believe her. She surely knew something and he wasnt going to wait, " Lisa....is it about Mary hotels?"
This made Lisa freeze on her spot, her throat going dry. Did Lucas know something about the hotel? And why was he....relating it now? " What do you mean?....."
" You know....something about Mary hotels, dont you?" Lucas tried not to look obvious that he was suspecting the hotels. The way she reacted kind of confirmed it was related with the hotel.
" Lucas...." she gulped, holding his hands, " Dont ever talk about Mary hotel."
He scrunched his brows with her sudden words.
" I am serious....dont ever get related with that hotel, understand?" she had worry all over her face. Just what did she mean by that? " please....you will get hurt."
" Hey, Lisa...." he grabbed her arms, " What do you mean? You are just making me more curious." he said with frustration. Her dense words which didnt make sense to him was only making him irritated.
" JUST DONT!!" she shouted with teary eyes. And with that stormed out of the park, leaving Lucas alone while he clenched his fist.
It was obvious that Lisa definitely knew more about Mary hotels. " I dont care if im hurt..."
