Chapter 25 - Old Acquaintance

Lisa hurriedly came to her room only to see Ruhan pacing inside impatiently.

When he saw her he immediately lashed out to her, "You damn girl..don't you dare to come to my room. You have already snatched away half of my properties. There is no way I will let you snatch my room." He was fuming with anger.

Lisa didn't bother to argue with him. She directly threw him out of the room and shut the door.

The sounds of Ruhan's curses and banging on the door were heard by Lisa but she was too tensed to care for them.

She hurriedly took out her alternative phone and started to call the person who called her earlier.

"Hello," a hoarse voice came from the other side.

Lisa couldn't care less for the formalities and directly scolded him, "Are you crazy? Why did you call me earlier on that number?"

The man chucked. "Dear, is this how you greet your old acquaintance? How could you betray me like this and marry that bastard? Why wouldn't you receive my calls? Do you know how hurt I am?" he spoke as if he was a pitiful wife abandoned by her husband.

Then his tone became sharp, "Or do you think that now that you belong to Ahmed family, it is degrading to you to communicate with is?" Although he was trying to be sarcastic, he couldn't hide the anger in his voice.

"Have you gotten married?" Lisa asked him coldly.

"No. Why? Are you interested in me?"

"Then don't talk about not receiving your call. The wearer knows best where the shoe pinches." Lisa was really angry. She had to go through tortures after tortures for the last few days. How would be have the mind or energy to bother with this man?

"Anyway, if you don't have a death wish, don't call me on that number." Lisa warned him.

"The person who would die first is you. And you deserve it. This is the price you will get for crossing us. Do you really think that by avoiding her and marrying into Ahmed family, you can escape us?"

Lisa gritted her teeth as she tried to suppress her anger.

However, she couldn't express her dissatisfaction. Because she did betray him. Although she had planned it all along to betray him, she could not afford to make enemy out of him completely...Not now....she still needed him.

"This is not appropriate to converse on phone. Let's meet" Lisa said. She had to face him sooner or later.

"Really? Wouldn't your husband mind if you contact other men like this?" the man was addicted to teasing Lisa.

Lisa scoffed, "What qualification does he have to expect loyalty and purity from his partner? He should take a good look at himself first."

To Lisa, only a pure man deserves a pure wife. A promiscuous man would marry a pure and loyal girl, where he would fool around everytime he can- this type of discrimination is hated by Lisa.

This was also the reason where she could not accept Ruhan as her husband even if he was rich and handsome and didn't lack in any other aspect.

"You are really cruel" the man seemed dissatisfied with her remark.

Lisa didn't argue with him anymore. "Same time tomorrow, same place."

She hung up the phone and sighed. She was really tired.

'Tomorrow is going to be exhausting' she thought to herself and began to plan for the future.

Mr. Ahmed's challenge had disrupted her plan. It was not something she expected.

Well, a battle is always unpredictable and full of surprises.
