When Ciara reached her room, she disorganized everything to vent out her anger and just then, her room door opened and Vikram came in. She ran to him and hit his chest as she pushed him ," You did it purposely! You lied to me! It's you who told them. Now you ruined everything." He got hold of her wrists and said," You planned on aborting my child without letting me know about it. We both did things behind each other's back. We are now even." "You're a jerk, bastard. There's no wedding. I'm not getting married to you," she said and he smiled before saying," We shall see about that. I came to ask you to take care of yourself at least for our baby." After that, he left her alone.

Ethan leaned his back against his seat when Alex told him that Bella wasn't in Elfraine either. "But we won't give up. We are still searching for her everywhere," he said and after a while, Ethan said," Don't look for her anymore. She is purposely hiding, meaning she doesn't want to be bothered. Let her be."
"You're sure about this Ethan?" "Yes, that's what they are all good at. Making promises only to break them the next minute." Alex didn't miss to catch on the coldness in his voice similar to how it was when Alicia had just disappointed him, or even more. "Okay then. You need anything else?" he asked. "To be alone," he stated and Alex left him hoping he will be fine.

At night, Luna was standing at their bedroom balcony with her hands clutching the metallic railings thinking about Bella. She must have been hurt when she found out. Was she perhaps angry at her for not telling her and that's why she left without saying anything to her? Was she alright where she was? She felt hands that circled around her waist and after came the farmiliar warmth mixed with the intoxicating scent before a smile bloomed on her face. She noticed that ever since Graham regained his memory, he had become sweeter and more caring. It's not that he wasn't before but it increased when he regained his lost memories. "Still thinking about your friend?" he asked and she nodded. "My people are doing their best. You shouldn't worry because they will find her," he assured her. "But what if she is in danger when some bad guys landed on her and it's why neither you or Alex are able to locate her?" "We have to be positive. And we can't be sure about anything unless we find her," he said and she nodded once again. She just hopped she was okay wherever she were. "By the way, Vikram is getting married this weekend," he told her and she couldn't believe it. She turned around to look at him. She had never seen Vikram with a woman before. "Really? That's.... good but surprising," she could only say. "Yes. He's marrying Ciara," he stated. "Ciara? The one I know? Ciara Roberts?" she asked and when he nodded, she was shocked. "Are you serious?" he nodded once again and she continued," How? When?" "She's pregnant with his child. They decided it with her parents." "Pregnant? Have they been together or something? I thought she was after you?" she couldn't help but say. "Since the first time Vikram saw her when we were teenagers, he loved her that instant but Ciara was hell-bent on getting me yet I didn't do love back then. He has always been there for her, loving her and waiting for an opportunity so when it presented itself, he utilized it," explained Graham. She thought Vikram had been really patient. She remembered that Ciara had puked when they were at the hospital. They were symptoms showing up. It was still so hard to believe, at least for her. "So where's the wedding?" she asked. "It's going to be registered at the Magistrates office. It's what she decided. Only his and her parents will be present but I'm happy for him. It's what he wanted for so long." Luna remembered how Ciara struggled to catch the bouquet and true to that, her wedding is this weekend. How surprising. "But I don't think she's happy with it," said Luna. "She has no option. Okay, enough talking about other people. Let's go and do something productive," he whispered the last sentence on the shell of her ear and she blushed hard knowing what he meant.
Back to Vikram, he shifted from his Villa and got a more luxurious and bigger one. He decided to shift because he considered the previous one unclean reason being that he had taken different women in it for sex. He wanted to start everything afresh since he was going to become a married man and a father. He was happy. He vowed to make Ciara fall in love with him at all cost and he exactly knew how he was going to do that. He couldn't contain the excitement he felt of meeting his first child and that from the woman he loved.
