"Excuse me." Samantha said with a cracked voice and went towards Restroom.
"Sam, Are you okay?" Alexi asked.
"Ye... Yes." Samantha replied and went to the washroom.
"Wow... Is that My SIL who just talked?" Martin asked.
"Yes." Noah answered with a chuckle.
"She looks really ruthless in business." Martin said.
"Martin, you didn't see your SIL's ruthlessness yet." Noah replied.
"Is Julie's Cafe, SIL's?" Martin asked.
"Yes, It's the first cafe Sam started and that cafe made Sam come until here and it's close to her heart. She made Julie's cafe bigger because she wants to make her dream resort around the cafe." Alexi answered.
"Wow... I heard a lot about Julie's cafe but I really didn't expect that Julie's cafe is SIL's." Martin replied.
"Well, Samantha took Caffeine name from Julie's cafe name and Kept the name for Amaxi is Caffeine by Amaxi Hotels and Resorts." Alexi said proudly.
"What Amaxi mean then?" Martin asked.
"Ama was taken from Samantha's middle three letters and the last two letters of Xi was taken from my name of the last two letters." Alexi answered.
"Wow." Martin replied and just then, Samantha came out of the restroom and walked over towards the and sat on the couch.
"You here Martin?" Samantha asked.
"I came for Anna, SIL." Martin answered.
"Liar. You said you wanted to say Hii to your SIL." Quency said and Martin winked.
"Well, Now Anna. She became close to everyone in less time." Martin said and Samantha smiled.
"Anna is not a girl who gets close to people but she got really close to you guys in very little time. Ahh! Last night she just blabbered about you guys." Noah said.
"She was near you last night?" Martin asked Noah.
"Yeah, she spent last night with me and my mom. Anna is close to my family and Andrew's family too. Especially, Anna is mine and Andrew's mother's favorite." Noah said and Martin nodded with a smile.
"Anna is so lucky to have loved ones around her." Martin said with a smile.
"Thats true." Alexi said.
"Sam, you really separated Julie's and Amaxi?" Noah asked.
"No, I didn't." Samantha answered.
"But that papers we just saw?" Noah asked.
"Fake documents and forgery signatures." Samantha answered.
"Thank god!" Noah said releasing a relief breath.
"I am not a fool, Noah. I know how much loss Amaxi will get if Julie is separated from Amaxi." Samantha replied with a smile.
"Yeah, Julie gives huge profits for Amaxi. I was shocked when you showed those documents and Samantha smiled.
"Then, Julie's cafe documents?" Noah asked.
"Those are true. I don't want to trust Xavier again and get fooled. There is something going on with him. I am sure, he will change again and do something." Samantha said.
"How can you be so sure?" Noah asked.
"Xavier asked me to join the hotel business with illegal business." Samantha answered making everyone's eyes widened.
"What?" Everyone asked and Samantha chuckled.
"Yes, he asked me this 1 year ago. I was shocked too that how Xavier changed. But, then. It all costed was a slap on his cheek. I couldn't take it when he suggested that and slapped him. So, from then, he started behaving like this." Samantha replied.
"Is he insane? Why would he suggest that?" Quency asked and Samantha shrugged.
"Let's leave this topic." Samantha said and Noah sighed.
"What the hell?" Alexi shouted as she got up from the couch.
"You... Why did you shout?" Martin asked.
"Shut up, Johnson look at this." Alexi said and gave her mobile to Johnson and he and Alexi started laughing looking at the phone.
"What it is?" Martin asked as he took the phone from Johnson and looked into the phone and his eyes widened.
"What the fuck?" Martin cursed.
"What happened?" Noah asked as he took the phone from him and laughed and Samantha frowned.
"What happened?" Samantha asked.
"Paparazzi took mine and Johnson pictures last night when we went to dinner and wrote that we are that secret couple and Martin punched Zac in the party because he touched his sister-in-law." Alexi said and laughed.
"Don't laugh. It's not a joke. SIL, tell them to stop laughing." Martin said and Samantha looked up at him.
"Me?" Samantha asked.
"Yeah, you. They are writing that your fiance is some others." Martin answered.
"Huh?" Samantha asked and Martin rolled his eyes.
"Martin, you know about paparazzi. Just leave them. The rumors will fade away themselves soon." Samantha said and Martin sighed.
"Whatever!" Martin replied.
"Let's go to the penthouse. Let's have lunch together." Samantha said with a smile.
"Will you cook?" Alexi asked Samantha and Samantha nodded with a smile.
"Yayyy..." Alexi said.
"Noah, bring Chitra to the penthouse with you." Samantha said and Noah nodded.
"Yeah, I will." Noah replied.
"Quency, let's go." Samantha said.
"Yeah, I will but I have a little work to do. I will wrap it up soon and will come." Quency replied and Samantha nodded and they all got up from the couch and Martin, Alexi, Johnson, and Samantha walked inside the Elevator and went to the penthouse.
"Johnnsoon, Martiin." Anna said excitedly as soon as she saw the coming inside the penthouse and ran towards Johnson.
"Anna, slow." Samantha said and Johnson got down on his knees and opened his arms wide with a smile and Anna cane running towards him and hugged him tightly.
"I mishhhed you." Anna said and Johnson chuckled.
"I miss you too, Sweetie." Johnson replied as he kissed her hair.
"Oh, I'm hurt. You aren't hugging me." Martin said and Anna released herself from Johnson and went to Martin and signaled him with her small hand to get on to her level and he did.
Anna kept her both hands-on Martin cheek and kisses his both cheek and wrapped her little arms around Martin's neck and hugged him tightly and Martin laughed and took Anna in his arms.
"How is my cute little baby?" Martin asked as he walked inside with Anna to the living room.
"You can take an off now. Thank you for looking after her." Samantha said to maid.
"Your welcome, Ms. Samantha." The maid said politely and walked away.
"Make yourself comfortable." Samantha said and Johnson nodded and she walked inside the kitchen.
Johnson was about to follow Samantha when Alexi grabbed his arm.
"I'm sorry." Alexi said to Johnson and He raised his eyebrows.
"Why?" Johnson asked.
"Because I didn't tell you about Sam's past last night." Alexi answered and Johnson turned towards her.
"It's okay, Alexi. I just wanted to know her past because I saw it's bothering her so much. Maybe, I thought if I know her past then it will be easy for me what she is going through. Maybe, I thought knowing her past will help me in knowing her more. So, I can help her in getting her out of it as soon as possible." Johnson replied.
"I know. I know, you are getting confused a lot about her past and all but trust me, I can't say it to you. Even though I'm the one who is included in it too but I don't have any right to say it to you." Alexi said.
"I understand! But, I don't know if she is ready to take a step ahead with me or not? I said, I love her but I still don't know if she wants to marry me with her whole heart or for your parent's happiness sake." Johnson replied.
"Johnson, you saw how Samantha introduced you to Xavier?" Alexi said and Johnson nodded.
"With this, you can understand that she is trying. She is trying to give a chance but her past is stopping her from doing anything. Yes, its been 5 whole year's and Samantha should forget about the past but it's not easy for her." Alexi replied and Johnson nodded.
"You came to the hospital the other day to we Sam then I guess, you also for what reason Samantha is in hospital." Alexi said and Johnson nodded.
"Yes, Uncle Damon told me." Johnson replied.
"Yes but it's not the first time." Alexi said and Johnson frowned.
"What do you mean?" Johnson asked.
"That is not the first time. She did the same thing before too." Alexi said and Johnson eyes widened.
"It's hard to trust men because she got hurt by a man before in her life. There were so dreams, which she dreamed but they all got scattered with the one person in her life." Alexi said and Johnson frowned.
"Just make her feel safe in your arms. She will eventually tell you everything but please don't break her trust in you." Alexi said and Johnson took a deep breath as his mind got into confusion.
"Okay, thank you for telling me all these." Johnson said and Alexi smiled.
"No worries! You can ask me anything about Samantha except her past." Alexi replied with a smile and Johnson nodded and Alexi went to the living room.
Johnson went to the kitchen and saw her chopping vegetables and a smile is playing on her lips.
Johnson looked at Samantha working in the kitchen and a smile spreads on his face looking at her working. He can't wait to make her his. But, Johnson is confused about her past. Will Samantha tells him if he asked her? No. Johnson felt it's not right to ask her directly but Johnson just wants to help her to come out of her past and just decided that he will listen to her when Samantha is ready to say her past to Johnson!
