Chapter 49 THE TRUTH UNTOLD

The morning soon came calling. Invading the room with it's soft and gentle rays. Mart groaned with the touch of the sun, the scene of the previous night invaded his thoughts like a bad dream~ it's just a nightmare. That's what he thought but then the truth soon hit him like cold ice as his gaze caught glance of the messed room.
The scattered clothes on the floor and the knocked down books washed his face in terror “ What have I done?” The words escaped his lips as he scanned to the bed. And there he found Lilia, fast asleep. He gasped. “ Lilia?” 
He immediately tapped her awake, hoping to find reasonable answers to what had just happened but she just knocked his hand off at the glance of him.
“ What the hell is the meaning of this Lili?"
“ what?” She cried as she buried herself back in bed. “ Can I have a little more rest?~ you really exhausted me last night.” She sounded nonchalant.
He was dumbfounded, he couldn't believe what he had done. He was still mourning Aimscious but then had an affair with her best friend? That was unacceptable and rude. On a second thought, he was actually guilty for her death.
“No, no, no...we can't be doing this.” He shot to his feet as he tried to get her to listen. “ Let's get some contraceptives...we can't risk anything. This is just a mere mistake and you know I've no feelings for you. ”
“ A mistake, you said?” Lilia glared with burning fury. She was ready to devour him whole at any point in time. “ You can beat yourself up for all I care, I'm not doing anything.”
With that, she wrapped herself up with the sheets and stormed off to the bathroom.
                                      THREE YEARS 
Days turned to months and months  to years after Aimscious departure to the states. Everyone soon seem to have forgotten about her, returning to daily endeavor except for the Scott family who kept close watch for her return.
DENMARK
THE SCOTT'S BANGALORE
Attending to a few documents over his desk, a familiar feminine voice called his attention. “ Good morning,dad...what are you up to this early?” His face immediately lit with a smile at the sight of his lovely daughter who approached from the stairs.
Her hair pulled into a messy ponytail tail, exposing her charming oval face and seductive eyes ~fitted over a more gorgeous yet casual flora dress.
“ Working over a few documents... what's the occasion?” He asked after a kiss came brushing over his cheeks. 
“well, nothing special...I'm to chair this morning's general meeting of our companies across the globe and also meet our new partners before heading off to lectures~ have you forgotten?” She asked with a broad smile.
Mr Scott nodded with a proud look in his eyes. “ Not at all, your honor ...our only incoming lawyer.” He teased and they both laughed.
“ Catch you later, dad” She headed out right after. 
“ Oh, right...” He called after her. “ I forgot something really important.” He explained right after their gaze met. 
“ What's it about?” 
“ Prince and Jasmine will be arriving from Dreamland today...be sure to return early.”
“ That's great news.” She shook with excitement. “ I'll be here right after lectures~see you soon.”  Aims sped off with great joy as Scott watched with giggles.
After Aims' recovery, her parents agreed to enroll her in one of the most popular universities in Denmark so to get her away from the scandal back home. And finally, she was at her final year. Hoping to become the world's top expert and inevitable lawyer.
Due to her excellence in crime studies, she won a recognition to become the head of BNI department after studies~both internationally and locally.
DREAMLAND
After Nina had seen to their breakfast, Jasmine and Prince headed off to the airport. They were to catch the early morning flight headed over to Denmark which they couldn't afford to miss in anyway.
Jasmine was beside herself with great joy and enthusiasm. It's been ages since she last saw Aimscious and she couldn't wait to meet her again.
Their check-ins were finally done after a long wait and they both headed in to their seat as they waited for the plane to take off.
DENMARK UNIVERSITY
The meeting ended earlier than she had expected and quickly, she rolled off after seeing to the needs of their new partners. Aimscious arrived right on time before the lectures begun.
At every second, she crossed checked her watch. She felt restless, just waiting for the time it was all gonna end.
After hours of endless talk, the lecturer finally called it a close. It was 2: 30pm when she glanced at the time on her phone. “ Shoot, I'm gonna be late with this whole damn traffic.” She cried. 
Quickly packing up her stuff, she hurried off. It was a rush hour across the streets, she noticed as she drove through the traffic~hoping to arrive early.
THE SCOTTS BANGALORE 
Twelve hours felt longer than expected, Jasmine observed as she gazed out at the compound through the door. She finally felt exhausted and turned back to the hall. Right then, the door slammed open.
“ Jasmine!!” Aimscious called out from the doorpost which brought both of them slamming into each other in an endless hug. Prince and Mr Scott giggled at the sight of the two.
“ For how long are you gonna remain stuck up like that?" Prince called.
“ Prince!!!” She finally noticed him, bounding him up in a hug. “ It's been a while, how have you guys been...” She ranted out after breaking off. “ Oh, and mum too.”
They all laughed. “ Which one should I answer first?” Prince asked amidst to chuckles. “ One at a time, pls.”
“ Don't mind me, I'm just over excited right now.” She explained.
After a few more pleasantries, they all joined the table for dinner. Which soon ended within a few minutes.
Aimscious was in her room with Jasmine when Prince later joined them. “ Hope you don't mind?” He asked the two ladies who quickly tilted their heads with a no.
She immediately noticed the file in his hands as he settled down beside her. Her gaze enveloped with curiosity. “ Is that mine?” 
“ well...yeah.” He affirmed. Jasmine knew what is was about but decided to let Prince do the talking. It was one of the main reasons they both came to meet her since she would be returning to Dreamland soon.
“ I guess you should take a look at it yourself.” He said after a minute of deliberation. With confusion and curiosity, she scanned through the file and pictures.
“ What's the meaning of this, Prince?” Her eyes glittered with unshed tears. “ Who gave this to you?”
