Edwin reached his office in ten minutes. Running upstairs to his office, he reached there breathing heavily. He banged the door loudly as it was opened, revealing Noah. He bowed after seeing Edwin.

"Lucifer Sir, welcome back to the office", he said as he got to a side, letting him inside. Coming in, Lucifer saw his main hacker and two computers with paused video footage.

"Now, tell me all about it", he commanded as he took a seat in front of the computers.

Noah played the footage in front of him, and said, "Sir, we were working on a different case, when we looked through a random flight's passengers list. When I looked through it, I found Helena Ma'am and Daxton Sir's full names written there. I checked the date and it was the same date they both went missing. I found this weird, so I checked the further details. Turns out, they both were present on the flight that day. The flight was to Toronto, Canada. I checked this footage here, but I did not find anyone with the same looks. I think that they disguised themselves with masks and hats. Furthermore, checking the list of Swedish tourists entering Canada this year, I could not find their names anywhere. They might have changed their original names as well. I am sorry to say Sir, but this looks like a well-implemented plan. They faked their death here."

Edwin was numb.

"So, she knew it. She knew my true identity. She did well enough to fool me", he said realizing everything.

'The prank was a part of her plan to be sure whether I am Lucifer or not. She played it all extremely well ', he thought.

"Noah, I want you to make another gaming company by a different name. Open it with the name, John Scott. And find out more about both of them. I will be coming to work every day from now.

"Found you, Princess! Well played indeed." He laughed maniacally while clapping his hands.

"I'll let you live for now. Live as freely as you want to, cuz you will soon lose this freedom. You will be coming back here to Sweden, Doll."

*Present Time*

The day after tomorrow was their first wedding anniversary. Although Lia had moved on, she still sometimes thought about her past. How beautiful those moments were when she did not know his real identity. How difficult it was for her to again believe in happy endings. She remembered those romantic moments, his pampering and caring nature. She wanted to be alone that day, so she wrote a leave application. Going to her director's office, she knocked on the door.

"Come in", said Mrs. Jackson as Lia went inside.

"Yeah, Sir. I will manage everything", Mrs. Jackson said as she hung up the call. "Miss Clarke, I was about to call you. Anyways, what brings you here?"

"Ma'am, I need to take a leave on the upcoming Thursday. I have got the leave application", she said as she was taking it out of her folder.

"I'm afraid I cannot allow that to you. I just got a call from the director of SGamex Company. They have a case on the ownership of their recently launched game. Since this is a high-profile case, he especially asked for you to take the case. They will arrive in Calgary on Thursday morning. The meeting for the case is scheduled for Thursday evening", she said.

"Ma'am, it is very important for me to take leave. Can't they schedule the meeting for Friday morning?"

"No, they can't. I know that it is your first leave since you came here, but I am very sorry for this. They just want you to lead the case. Don't worry, I will let take two days off after this case", said Mrs. Jackson.

"Okay, ma'am. I will come", she said. Lia went home after that. Ringing the doorbell, Liam opened the door with a smile.

"Hi Helena", he said as he got her a glass of water.

"Hi, Daxton. I got an urgent case on Thursday, so I think I will have to go", she said.

"Will you be able to manage? Let me talk to the director", Daxton said as he sat beside her.

"I already requested her, but she is saying that the company wants only me to lead the case. It feels strange", she said while Daxton chuckled.

"This is not the first time Helena. Many companies want you to lead their cases because you are literally the best", he said.

"What did you make for dinner", she asked changing the topic.

"Umm, I made you fried chicken", he said as she squealed in happiness.

"Oh my, are you serious!"

"Hmm, freshen up and come down. Then we'll eat together", he said. They happily ate chicken. Lia adored her cats.

Thursday came and Lia went to the law firm. She looked simpler and paler than usual. She tied her hair in a bun and did her makeup. Driving to the law firm, her moments with Edwin flashed in her mind. His cute smile, His laugh, his voice, his warmth, she missed all of those. But then the memory of that day flashed. His red eyes, clenched jaw, balled fists, and the anger on his face. It was the last thing she wanted to see. His dominating tone was a red flag for her. She considered dominance to be the worst quality in males, ignorant of the fact that Edwin had that quality deep inside him.

Thinking of these thoughts, she did not realize that she had already reached the law firm. After parking the car in the basement, she went in a lift. Reaching her floor, she worked on some small cases in her cabin. It was 5:30 pm. A knock was heard by her.

"Come in", she said.

"Ma'am the clients have arrived", said a worker.

"Okay, I am coming", she said. Taking a notepad and a pen with her, she started to go towards the meeting room. Surprisingly, the whole firm was empty.

"Why is there no one present", she asked.

"Director ma'am gave a half-day to everybody. I am going too after escorting you", he said.

Lia sensed that something was not right.

'Mrs. Jackson never gives holidays. A half-day too when it is a full working day, is somewhat shady. I can't take any risks', Lia thought. She turned to the worker.

"You can leave too, I know the way and I left some important files in my cabin. I will go on my own", she said.

"Ma'am I am told to lock the meeting door after you enter there", he said.

"What", she asked surprised.

"That is what I was told. I find that weird too", he said.

"Just tell them that I will be there in 10 minutes. And come back here", Lia said. She was panic-stricken but she had to be wise to be saved. The worker left and Lia took out her phone and called Daxton quickly. He picked it up after a few rings.

"Hi Lia", he said.

"Liam, my house seems to have leaking gas. It might explode soon", she said.

This was a code they made for danger.

"How much gas has been leaked till now", he asked further.

"It might be enough to burn everything", she said.

This meant an emergency.

"I am checking it out", he said.

"Yeah, see you soon. Take care of my kitties", she said.

The worker came and knocked again.

"Yes", she said as she let him in.

"Ma'am I have told them that you are working on a small case right now, so you will take some time", he said.

"Good. Now, tell me, did the meeting room have any computer screen showing the surveillance cameras", she asked.

"No ma'am. There were just a few bodyguards and a man", he said.

"Okay, now take me to the changing room. Get me a sweeper's outfit there and we will both go out of the building", she said.

"Okay ma'am", he said as he let her out of the cabin quietly. he gave her an outfit with a mask and gloves. She wore spectacles and darkened her makeup. Once she was done, she looked at the time. She had two minutes left. She took a broom and wore the sweeper hat. They both went towards the exit gate of the firm.

"Go inside for some time. These people are here for me. Don't show them that you are scared. Go back to the meeting room and tell them that I am not feeling well so I have gone to the washroom and I will be back soon. This will buy me more time", she said.

"Yes ma'am. I will try my best", he said.

"Thank you so much", she said as she went towards the emergency stairs. Going through the lift or the main stairs would have been unsafe. She went down the stairs, casually. Luckily, there was no one. She went to the parking and after looking here and there, found nobody suspicious. She unlocked the car, found no one inside, and sat inside. Locking the car instantly, she started it and moved out of the building as soon as possible. She took her secret phone out and called Liam's secret phone.

"Lia, are you safe", he asked.

"Liam, I am okay but I need you to get out of the house right now. Switch off the other phone, and destroy the SIM right now. Get Cuddles and Milo with you. Meet me at the amusement Harrison", she said as she cut the call and drove to the Harrison.

Parking her car a kilometer from the amusement Harrison in a secluded area, she removed the uniform. She took out her makeup kit. She did makeup to disguise her look. She wore her oversized clothes again and wore a bucket hat. After making sure she looked different, she left the car and walked to the park. She carried her secret phone with her. Fortunately, there was a big crowd there.
