Chapter 25 - CHAPTER 25: RIGHTFUL OWNER

"Do what is right hassana before you get into more trouble! Return the badge to the rightful owner and mind you, don't let this type of reckless act happen again! I'm I understood?"

It was so hard for hassana to face her uncle ever since the badge episode at the octagon. She have escaped the topic so many times that she began to get tired and decided to just face him with an incredible explanation.

The badge did fall at the accident scene and she took it quite alright but she kept forgetting to return it to the field marshal. She lied about not seeing the badge because of what the uncle told her about the field marshal which scared her. Beside, she have been changing bags and have forgotten about it in the bag she put the badge earlier.

Instead of the explanation to calm him down, it riled him up and he bombarded her instantly. He scolded her and asked her to return the badge to the rightful owner.

"But I can't just return it by myself. That would be suicide uncle."

"Why don't I just return it since I'm the one that carried it. Why did you have to be so forgetful!"

"I didn't mean for it to stay too long uncle." She lied.

Zakari would not have a breathing space if by some mistake the field marshal knew he is aware of the whereabouts of his badge and kept silent.

Why don't the field marshal just expose the thief and put everyone's heart at rest. Khalid was even contemplating whether the girl took it or not. His friend might be mistaken that the girl took it because she will not risk everything by keeping the badge right? Why will she even keep it?

The badge of the general of the army is too great to be tackled with. Khalid thought even if she found it at the accident field, she will definitely....the next scene took him to a shocking silent world.

If not for the video, who would've thought that the badge was actually with her! Shamsuddeen thought hard about how his badge got lost all of a sudden after accidentally dropping it in front of the lady. He asked his chief security to get the CCTV at plain road. He even forgot about it he could've done that earlier.

The video showed how the field marshal tactically maneuver around the lady missing hitting her legs. There were so many spectators but the video was clear. As he missed hitting her legs, something fell off from his hand unknowingly and he just drove off.

Shamsuddeen was in his security room at the golden mansion when khalid joined him, watching the CCTV that got him surprised. It shows the field marshal sped up leaving the lady in great panic. She bent down and picked up her crushed phone, looking at the road the field marshal drove off to.

Just when khalid believed that she wouldn't see the badge and keep it to herself, he saw her looking at the ground then she bent down and picked up something small. It's the badge! So she has it with her and she completely lied about seeing it at all! What a bold act. Isn't she afraid of offending the field marshal?!

All eyes went to shamsuddeen who was sitting on a chair, one leg on top of his knee, his hand rubbing his chin, his sharp eyes focused on the screen. He literally told the lady that if the badge was caught in her possession, she will be imprisoned and the girl dared him like that. What was she playing at?

Is she foolish or did she think he was bluffing?!! Good. He will like to see how she will deliver the badge to him after lying. A sinister smile form on his face and he picked up his phone from the table and began swiping.

He mobilize hadi, from the hidden gold. He only work with this man when he want a certain person to be stalked. The hidden gold is a team of seven men which were trained to be the field marshal's security guards, hadi is their head. Immediately after he received the assignment, he head out.

After been robbed of her sea weed and was forced to go back the second time and get not even one quarter of what the general took away, hassana was heading back to the physician's quarters full of thoughts in her head. Did the general knows she has the token with her? If so, she have to get rid of it as soon as possible.

How to do so then? Suddenly she was stopped on the road. Lifting her head up, who was it she saw? Mamuda, the thug. Why is he here and why is he blocking her way?" Oh wait. Was she not the one that told her brother to tell this fool to meet her here? Ohhhh she have forgotten. Now she have to find a way to dismiss him which wouldn't be easy because he is too persisting.

"Beauty at its peak. Let me help you with your load."

"Are you saying am lazy!" she took offense deliberately.

"No...but no one can't resist help."

"Because I'm helpless!!?"

This fool even dressed well to meet her. At a time of war, why are other people immersed in something irrelevant? Love and it's rubbish can wait. Come to think of it, this thug have been fighting his whole life so this war wouldn't have much effect on him as it does on her but even so, this is a war between one kingdom and many, shouldn't he be concern about that?

"Do you like the way I dress, my lady....."

"Even the madman by the taj river dresses better than you."

Silent ensued.

"Your brother said you told me to meet you here....."

"To tell you that am getting married to the general of the golden army."

Getting married to the general of the golden army! She is too wishful isn't she? Hassana has no idea why she involved this man in trying to reject this thug. Well, if not the general who else can make this thug shiver within. He immediately went into shock, staring at her in disbelief.

"You are bluffing...."

"Wait for the general to meet you here, then you can explain to him why you stop his wife to be in the middle of the road!"

"My wife to be! Who stopped her?"
