She can't do without having her father around her if only he agrees to stay with her in the state,but he won't..he would rather ask his wife to go with her instead..

"Where is my mom ?" Kiaraa asked looking at the house help standing a bit close to her.

" Dear Madam drove out earlier " he said.

"You don't know where she went to" she asked.

"Did you find it" she asked in a cold voice

"No ,I was interrupted " he stammered as the words came out from his lips

"What do you mean ?" She yelled at him..

Her eyes travelled down his hands..what did he killed him?

Before she could ask him .." Mrs Alexander was there " he said .. her heart skipped.

" How ? " She asked surprised.

"Did you kill anyone? " She shivered in fear.

" No Micheal wasn't but Alex was there instead ..I guess he knew someone would attack Michael ."

" No I didn't ask you to harm anyone I just need the file ...and don't think of harming Micheal he would be my son in-law soon" he raise his head and stare at her in surprise.

I thought she wanted him gone.

"What about Alex ? Was he .."

"He got injured on his left palm" he said.

She clenched her fist in anger..she felt like slapping him so hard for hunting him.

"Leave my sight " she yelled at him closing her eyes..
