For the first time lily felt shivers. She was confused on what to do. He dragged her by the side and pushed her down holding her hands tightly. He brought her face closer to kiss her buy she retracted struggling to get out of his grip. She bit his lip as she ran away from him. He Chased after her trying to nurse his bleeding lip. Lily got to a cross road she took the left and saw a car pass by she crossed and got hit and fell unconscious.
Charles saw a man get out of the car and he went back. Linax stepped out he carried lily in and drove her to a nearby hospital for fear of loosing her. She got admitted immediately. He breathed a sigh of relief. He watched her closely, and turned to leave. He got home and met Dilan waiting for him. They both looked at each other as if talking to themselves telepathically.
"How's he?"
"doing well" He stepped into the car and they drove off.
"Have you found out who she is?"
"No" Dilan replied
"Don't you want to know her first?"
"No need"
"Hmm why?"
"She's there for a matter of time"
Linax fell silent. He knew that Dilan wasn't one whose decision could be changed he was serious about the contract marriage and would surely keep to it. He also knew falling in love was another impossible journey for Dilan that was why his father didn't care about his love life just for a child.
He couldn't blame him, no one could he was only acting like a concerned father who knew the consequence of Dilan's inability to get married.
At least he agreed to get married to the 'unknown girl' . He did hope the girl might at least change Dilan the same way Betty seems to change nix
"But they are way too different!" he thought
He looked at Dilan who was so engrossed in his work. Soon after they had reached the airport and boarded a flight back to the country.
All through the night Dilan was awake and busy on his laptop. Linax became worried
"Dilan you should get some rest for the meeting tomorrow"
"...." Dilan sighed and closed his laptop as he laid back closing his eyes. Linax felt alot Better as he succumbed to deep sleep.
After long hours in the air the plane finally landed. Dilan and Linax got of the plane. Dilan had already informed Seq to pick them up. He drove them home. Dilan went over to his room to shower he, soon he was done and got dressed for the big conference he had today.
He took a glance at the mirror while putting on his tie in a jiffy he was done and ready. He went down stairs where Linax was waiting for him. They sped off to his office. As he walked in the ladies gathered together admiring him. No one dared to make a sound. They watched him walk elegantly to his office
