Raol quickly stood up from his seat and smiled widely. "I think I have a really bad stomach. If you would please excuse me for ten minutes, I need to use the rest room urgently." Raol rubbed his stomach trying to act uncomfortable. Natalia frowned looking at her husband acting all weird while everybody else smiled empathatically looking at Raol. He then quickly sprinted away as if in a great hurry. He was side by side,once again looking at his phone in a great shock. "How the hell, such a strong and secure network got hacked!? I hope boss is ok!"
Rose gulped looking at Raol, who was still looking nervousely towards his phone while running away. Now even she could sense that something was terribly wrong with Rhehan.
She quickly took out her phone from her clutch and was about to call Rhehan when she realised her phone had lost all the signals. "What the hell is wrong with my phone?" Rose frowned and was about to talk to Kareem who was sitting besides him when the guy suddenly stood up elegantly, closing the button of his coat. He held up the glass placed on the table which was half filled with white wine and raised a toast. "To my dearest mom and now I can proudly say 'my dad." Everybody cheered in happiness raising their glasses too and looking at the happy couple, who were sitting embracing each other in their arms.
"I am so happy that my mom has finally married the man of her dreams and master, you have always been a constant support and guide for me and each person sitting here. It has already been so many years that I have considered you as my father with the same amount of love and respect that should be given to a father. Thank you for never leaving our side in every difficulty." Kareem smiled happily looking at the two a.d.u.l.ts.
Elizabeth gave a flying kiss to the boy and Lee raised his glass happily looking at the boy. Their wa surely a a major change in Kareem which the three a.d.u.l.ts could not help but notice. Rather than acting strange and aloof like before, the boy was acting all mushy and happy.
"Also....." Kareem smiled putting much emphasis on the word. "There is something special that I have to tell you all. Since all my important family members are present here, I want to tell it right here right now." He then turned to look at Sheryl, who was sitting right opposite to him holding her own glass of wine. The girl still looked upset and was in a doubt if Kareem could actually tell his family about their relation or not.
"I have found the love of my life in none other than this beautiful lady Sheryl, sitting right opposite me." Sheyl gaped at Kareem in surprise ansd was about to literally drop down her glass of wine in shock.
A surprised squeel came from several members of the family present their, while Lillian and Elizabeth turned to look at each other in confusion and surprise. They were looking at each other with questioning eyes. Was he not in love with Rose? Is this another game plan of his? But he looks pretty much genuine! Has he had sudden change of heart?
"I really like you Sheryl and it would not be wrong to say that I have fallen in love with you from the very moment I saw you ." Kareem smiled loking at the girl who was now blushing to the core looking down at the table with her lips pursed. "And I promise, I shall never ever break your heart. I will always live upto your expectations and will never ever make you sad or unhappy. I will be a good husband and a wonderful father to our beautiful kids."
Sheryl looked in Kareem eyes with much love, though she was also feeling extremely shy. The man had made her doubts vanish away in just a a matter of seconds, making her feel extremely special. They both looked at each with love filled eyes while the entire family cheered for the two happily.
"Oh Sheryl sweetheart. You are such a lovely girl. welcome to this crazy family of ours. I am so glad Kareem chose such a sweet girl like you." Elizabeth smiled looking lovingly at Sheryl.
Sheryl who was taken aback with the amount of love she was getting, became a little overwhelmed. "Thank you so much for the love and honour." Sheryl smiled lovingly looking at Elizabeth.
"The boy sure has a very good taste. How did she even say yes to a stupid man like Kareem?" Stephen spoke up teasingly, looking notoriously at Kareem.
"Well my good luck you can say!" Kareem shrugged his shoulders notoriously and sat on his seat happily, noticing a happy and satisfied look on Sheryl's face. He was glad that they were now clear from this confusion and the girl would now believe him that he never had any commitment issues concerning her.
Lillian and Elizabeth still could not believe what exactly was happening with Kareem. They could not help but notice how the man was not even bothered to look at Rose who was sitting just besides him but he was constantly looking at Sheryl like a love struck teenager. It was pretty clear to the two ladies that the boy was not faking it but was actually in love with Sheryl. This was now making them re-think their thoughts about Kareem already and just then Vicky stood up from her seat holding her glass of wine raising a toast to the couple of the day.
The girl was about to speak up happily, when everybody noticed a man sprinting towards them at the speed of lightening. He had a gigantic and heavy looking tree branch in his hand and was running towards the table, in the direction where Xio Lee was sitting. They all turned to look carefully at the man and saw the man was non other than Raol. Just then from the other far away direction a man and a woman were also running towards the table, holding each other's hand, though they were running very slowly. They too seemed like they had something important to tell.
"What is happening!?" Lillian stood up immediately feeling disturbed, looking around her in nervouseness.
"Master! Master! It has started. They have spotted us and they are here on the island now." Raol came sprinting and immediately halted looking at Xio Lee, trying to catch his breath. Xio Lee immediately rose up from his seat hearing Raol's words, his face changing into a dark and dangerous form.
