As she tried to recall what just happened, she was startled by a familiar male voice from behind her
"Hello Madam Arya, how are you?" he greeted . Arya's lips pursed when she turned around and saw it was Chen . So the man upstairs was really Ryu, the CEO who was claiming her beach resort .
"What is going on?" she asked wearily .
Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, "I believe Attorney Stark discussed everything clearly . The owner of this resort is CEO Ryu Ken and he said that if you want to negotiate, you can discuss it with him directly in his room tomorrow at 7:00 AM sharp . If you are not present by then, we will immediately proceed with the necessary arrangements for the possession of the resort . "
And quickly added, "Please don't ask me anymore and talk to our CEO directly if you have further questions . "
Then he bid goodbye and strode back to his room .
Arya was left in awe . Her brain cells didn't seem to work and able to process all that happened tonight with her .

On the other side of the room, in a corner, Shawn hissed on his phone, "Check what happened! I don't care how you do it . I want a complete report in one hour!"
After hanging up the phone, he looked at Arya full of concern and walked towards her . He was at the restaurant for dinner when he heard the commotion and came to know of things through the staffs .
"Hey," he said as he waved his palm on Arya's face .
"Are you alright? Want togo out to catch some air?" Shawn asked smiling .
Arya sighed and just nodded . Yes, she indeed needed some air right now as she felt suffocated from sudden play of events .
Arya had a lot of things to work out right now . The resort was just one thing but the biggest problem was Ryu had found her from hiding . There were three months left as per the contract and here came another confusing matter .
She was contemplating if she should call Rita and inform about this situation .
She must think wisely before making this crucial decision .
Her mind was in chaos and she felt like her head will burst with pressure .
But her heart was happy, definitely rejoicing the moment when she saw Ryu not in her mobile, magazines or television but in actual, standing in front of her, touching her .
'Yes… I missed him badly . . . ' she thought while walking .

"Elder Master Ken, I'm just curious . How could you act calm as if there's nothing going on although you know everything already?" Butler Omni asked .
"Check mate, focus on the game you dummy old maid! Don't get distracted!" Elder Master Ken hissed .
Butler Omni scratched his head and still added, "I just don't understand why you are prolonging the confused situation . "
Elder Master Ken looked at the Butler directly and said, "I am not prolonging it . I want to see how my grandson will handle everything on his own . It's a tough situation and Ryu's link with the culprit is something inevitable . Let Ryu complete that scattered puzzle . "
"So you plan to just watch Ryu and do nothing?" Butler Omni asked unbelievably .
'What if things take a drastic turn?' Butler Omni wanted to voice out as he looked at the Elder Master quietly .
The Elder Master grinned, "You worry too much . I believe in my grandson . He is a Ken and my blood runs through his vein . "
'So what if your blood runs through him? Will that give him supernatural power?' He thought while he stared at Elder Master Ken .
"I will not interfere as long as no one gets hurt . " Elder Master said plainly .
The Elder Master laughed again and said .
"Are we communicating through telepathy now old maid? Why don't you just say it out loud to me? No wonder you'll stay single forever . " Elder Master grunted and gestured him for another round of chess .
Butler Omni sighed and shook his head . "How come you can read me so easily Elder Master? And why don't you stop calling me old maid or old hag . You're always teasing me for being single . " he said helplessly with a complaining tone .
"You grew up with us so you are also like a child to me Omni . I can read you in and out . Okay, I will just call you Old Mule from now on and that will not change unless you get yourself a partner . For goodness sake, get a life and don't just focus on us . " Elder Master Ken exclaimed .
Butler Omni just scratched his head .
