Homepage/Married to a Jinn/
80
Ava stared at Mr. Donald as he sauntered over to Dyrus's room, he turned to him with hesitant movements at first. Then he went away. His brow furrowed as he lunged at her from behind. He pushed open the doorknob to Dyru's room and walked into the room, slamming the door behind him.
"I think the Dark Djinn has already figured it out, I'll find Derek," Dana said, the three-eyed monster nodding to signal agreement with her statement.
Lisa didn't say a word, she believes the Dark Djinn has already overheard everything and he will go through with his plan before anyone finds Derek, she will only find his body. Lisa grinned and sipped cautiously on another campaign celebrating the win. She longs to see Ava cry.
"Okay, darling. I will join you. Two heads are better than one, we'll be able to find Derek in time before something bad happens to him.” Ava let out more than a whimper and faked a big smile.
"No! no!” gasped Sage.
They all looked at Sage and became suspicious.
"I... I meant if Ava leaves the villa, Djinn will be so sure something is fishy. To avoid that, Ava has to stay with me because I'm acting like her stupid son Derek.” Sage uttered, which sounded great to her. That's right! They fight against the Dark Djinn to find out the whereabouts of the real Derek. Allowing Ava to leave the mansion would be a huge mistake for her.
Ava thought about it, and she later agreed to Sage's suggestion. Dana left Donald's mansion looking for clues to find Derek.

"Do you know how much the glass door costs? It'll cost more than your life.” the brothel lady spat, trying to embarrass Derek.
Derek didn't want to get angry about a stupid thing, he didn't want everyone to realize he wasn't a normal human like others, he didn't want to use his magic to fix or create a glass door, so he dropped all that money, which he had stolen from his so-called father Don.
He dropped the money and left the brothel, running after the black sedan Lia had gotten into minutes earlier, her wrist chain falling into his hands as he grabbed her wrist and asked her name. He longs to return it to the original owner.
Unfortunately, the limousine didn't halt at a stop soon and Derek got tired of running. He wanted to fly, but seeing people around him prevented him from showing his powers to the world lest he is referred to as a monster. He cares more about his social life.
Derek jumped up and kept his hands tight on the back of the limousine. Climbing and on top of the limousine trying to go forward so the driver can notice him and stop the limousine at a stop, but it wasn't easy for him to climb onto a moving limousine.
Derek looked at the chain. It looked so expensive, it's a real diamond. His mind tells him to give up and sell the bracelet chain for a few dollars, but he rejects the advice, saying he wants to give it back to Lia.
Soon the limousine pulled up to a stop in front of an extremely well-constructed tall building. Derek threw himself aside and watched the tall golden building. It's unique. This is the first time Derek has seen a gold building, it was real gold.
The bodyguards helped Lia out of the limousine. "Is my husband back yet?" asked Lisa.
"Yes ma'am. He's been waiting for your arrival.” The bodyguard said, bowing his head. Lisa was shaking, "Oh god, I hope he didn't notice," she said to herself as she kicked the limousine.
"Hi, Love." Her husband walked towards her, holding a gold walking stick to aid his movements. He grinned at her. His gray beard is turning white, but he still looked good and handsome. He's somewhere in his 50's and looks like he's in his 30's, he's Ava's peer while his wife Lia is still in her 20's. This man is none other than Zach, who wore a black suit with a gold cane.
"Hi," Lia replied with a fake smile, her heart pounding. The bodyguard walks away as Zach signals them.
"You ungrateful! You went out again, didn't you?” Zach said, tugging at Lia's golden hair as she flinched.
It's not that she is unable to retaliate, but there is a reason she has endured this abuse ever since she rose from her dead state. Zach gave up something of himself, something very special to him, to revive Lia. Lia couldn't leave her helper in a terrible state as nobody can marry an impotent man, she had to marry him to make him happy, but she is not happy in her marriage.
Her body was not reanimated but her soul did in another body because her body was reduced to ashes due to what happened years ago. Oh yes, Lia. She is the three-eyed monster child, his long-dead princess. She's back, but it's disheartening that she doesn't remember anything about her parents. She only knew Zach as her family thanks to Zach's evil plan to make her all his.
Because of Zach's help and sacrifice. Lia came back to life. Zach offered something of himself to help Lia.
"No, my husband. It's not what you think I just went out on business.” Lia cried out and tried to break Zach's grip on her golden hair.
"Kiss those little boys around? Does that sound like business to you? Do you think I'm a fool? Do you think I didn't know how that boy touched you? How dare he touch my property? How dare you allow him to do that!” Zach yelled, pulling her hair tight.
Lia's jaw dropped, she was shocked when he found out what happened today. She went to the brothel with her boss for business reasons. She got angry and left the brothel when she realized her boss just wanted to sexually harass her and that's when she ran into Derek who was playing with the stolen money.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It was a mistake. I won't do it again," Lia admitted her mistake as she tried to calm Zach down, but he got even angrier. He let her hair go losing a few strands of gold in his hand.
"No, you're not sorry, but you will soon be."
He raised his hand to smack her in the face but his handheld, he glanced down at his held hand only to see Dyrus holding his hand, stopping him from hitting Lia.Download Novelah App
