“Who the heck is this intruder””Maxwell spat out as Ivan eyes turn bloodshot as he rushed to Maxwell angrily….”

Before Maxwell could got up, he grabbed him by the collar and landed a punch on his mouth as his mouth bleed with blood ouzing out.

“Hey, who are you to fight me,”Maxwell yelled and made to hit him but Ivan dodged it and grabbed the flower vase beside and smashed it on his head and Maxwell fell on the ground.

And Ivan came on top of him releasing blows and punches to him.

“You are suppose to be her uncle and you are forcing yourself on her. How could you be so cruel and heartless, for how long has you been sleeping with her bastard,”Ivan yelled with anger written all over his face punching him all over his face as it was unrecognizable.””

Izzy seeing that Ivan could ki|| Maxwell rushed to him and hugged him but Ivan pushed her away and she crashed on the ground with tears rolling down her face.

After beating to him to his satisfaction, he stood up and by then Maxwell was already weak groaning on the ground in pains all over his body.

“You deserve to jail monster, I will make sure you pay dearly for it,”Ivan yelled and put a call across to the cops “”

Not long after, the cops arrived and entered the house and they put the handcuffs around Maxwell’s wrist.

“Mr. Maxwell You are under arrest for the molestation and segzual harassment of Miss Izzy and anything you say will be used against you in the court of law,”the cop said as they dragged him away from the house putting him inside their van and they drove off.””

“Ivan,”Izzy called out in tears as she stood up and made to touch him but he yanked off her head”

“Don’t you freaking touch me, I h@?? you so much,”Ivan yelled as the words pierced deeply into her heart.””

“Please, I’m sorry. It’s not what you are thinking of,”Izzy cried already heartbroken”

“Then, what is it. If I haven’t rush back to give you the gift I bought for you, would I have seen the truth now,”Ivan fired back at her.””

“Ivan I’m sorry, it all’s started when he picked up on the road because I was an orphan. Ever since I grew up, I don’t know who my parents is, I was abandoned and helpless till he took me in and turned me into his s*x slave. That’s the reason why I turned cold-hearted until you came into my life. I really care for you Ivan, I love you so much,”Izzy said as Ivan dropped the nylon on the couch and glared at her h@??fully.””

“This will be the last time we will ever set eyes on each other, today marks the end of our friendship,”ivan said and left the house as Izzy bursted into tears.”

The look on his face shows that he actually h@??s her. Tears rolled down her face as she cover her face with her palm.

On the second thought, she was happy that she’s Ivan saved her and she’s free at last.

“I hope you can forgive me Ivan. I love you so much,”she muttered””

(FLASHBACK)

“What’s going on here?”Xander heard a loud growl and turned to see John standing at the door with anger written all over his face and he stood up.

“What are you doing here?”he asked standing on his feet as Xander stopped on his tracks.”

“I’m here to Lyla. Hope she’s alright,”Xander said as a slap landed on his face.””

“How can you show your face here after denied everything about her. You took her virginity and she’s pregnant for you. You denied ever taking responsible for the baby and now you are here to check up on her. You are happy right,”John yelled with fire blazing in his eyes””

(STILL ON THE FLASHBACK)

John was pacing around the house waiting for his private investigator to call him about the ki||er of his brother.

A knock was heard at the door and he hurried to the door and opened it but he saw no one. He saw a box there and grabbed it closing the door.

He dropped the box on the table and opened the box only to meet a horrible scene in the box. The private investigator he hired was being ki||ed and his head was inside the box.

“OMG,” he gasped in shock and saw a letter attached to it. He picked it and starts to read it which says:

“”NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY, YOUR BROTHER AND HIS WIFE IS GONE. DON’T TRY TO COME AFTER ME LEONARD CALLAGHAN ELSE YOU WILL PAY IT DEARLY WITH YOUR LIFE””

He fell on the couch weakly as his hands were shaking.

“I didn’t expect this from Leonard Callaghan, they might forget what happened today but I must revenge against them in the future,”John gritted his teeth in anger.”

(THREE YEARS LATER)

Everything have changed all through the years as a lifeless pretty girl was lying unconscious on the bed.

Uncle John stared at Lyla as he was visit her from time to time all through the years.

“You need to wake up Lyla, you need to make Xander and his family pay dearly for it,”John muttered as then her hand moved and John was surprised.””

Just then, Lyla’s eyes flew open as John gasped in shock. Lyla sat up as John pulled her into a hug.

“Thank God for being awake, I miss you so much,”John said and pulled out of the hug as Lyla stared at her blankly”

“Who are you,”she asked as John was confused””

The doctor entered the ward and checked her with the setoscope as John watched keenly.

“She lost her memories,”the doctor said as John was speechless. “”

Then an idea came into his mind as he nodded his head.

“It’s a good thing she lost her memories because it will make the plan of seducing Xander and ki||ing him works so easy”he thought””

“Okay, excuse us for a while doctor,”the doctor excused himself and left the ward.””

“Who are you and what am I doing here,”Lyla asked confusedly””

John explained everything to him without leaving any details as Lyla was filled with hatred towards Xander.

“From now, your name is Karina Marshall and not Lyla Marshal. You must deal with Xander Callaghan at all means,”John said as Lyla smirked inwardly””

(END OF THE FLASHBACK)

“That’s why I send you on the mission to seduce and ki|| the son of the man that I thought ki||ed your parents”uncle John stated as Karina felt a bang on her head “”

“Arrgghh,”she screamed loudly holding her head as uncle John rushed to her.””

“Are you okay,”he asked as Karina closed her eyes, memories of the past flooding into her head as she remembers all of them.””

Tear slipped out of her eyes as she blurted out the shocking word.

“My memories are back”
