Esther is gasping for breath, ber nose is bleeding. Zain didn't knew what to do!
"Aunt Evelyn, come fast !" he called out. Aunt Evelyn rushed i and saw Esther in such a situation. She suddenly opened the bedside drawer and took out an inhaler. She made Esther inhale the medicine. Esther gradually calmed down. Zain took a tissue paper and wiped the blood from her face. Esther slowly drowned into sleep.
"What happened?" Aunt Evelyn asked.
"A lady who is around 50 came and accused her for killing someone..."
"Must be Sir William's sister!"
"Who is that?"
"Her aunt!"
"Her aunt but…"
"Why are they all doing this to my poor child?" Aunt Evelyn said crying.
"Aunty , dont cry! She is alright now!"
"They never see how much she is suffering!"
*************
(1 am)
(Zain's POV)
Evelyn and wouldn't stop crying until a little earlier and atlast went to sleep. When I went to check on Esther I found out that she is having a high fever. I didn't wanted to disturb Aunt Evelyn's sleep so I decided to take care of her.
I made her take medicine and put wet towel on her forehead. Now her fever is gone. I was about to go back but she held my hand and said
"Oli don't go!" I tried to free my hand but she held on to it more tightly.

(Next morning)
Esther woke up and saw Zain sleeping. He was sitting on the floor and his head rested on the bed. Then she noticed that she is holding his hand. She suddenly released her hand and Zain woke up.
"You are up! How is your fever?" saying that he touched her forehead to check the temperature.
"Its all gone now!" he said happily.
" I had a fever?"
"Yeah! A very high one!" he said getting up. He stretched his back and walked out of the room.
Esther came out with great difficulty( her leg is injured) after freshening up.
"Have breakfast with us!" Esther said to Zain who was about to leave.
"No need to be so formal with me. I am your friend remember!"
"You are the one who is formal! Can't I ask my friend to have breakfast with me?" she asked taking the newspaper.
"Ok" he said sitting down beside her. Aunt Evelyn served the breakfast and sat down with them to have breakfast. She told them interesting stories and made them laugh.
"I am here!" Emily announced. She sat down beside Esther and took a sandwich for herself. Esther resently found out that Emily works at her company as an advertiser. So she promoted Emily as her special assistant. Now Emily will come to her house everyday and help her with work.
"So, Mily what is the situation there?"
"As expected Felix tried to make a move when you were injured."
"Not surprising! So what did he do?"
"He created rumours that you are in Coma and arranged a special shareholders meeting to expel you from your position."
"Oh! He did that much!"
"Yeah! But as you know now, most of them opposed."
"Who all supported?"
"Felix Brown, Salena Brown, Henry Brown, Bella Brown and George Wilson."
"As expected!"
"So what is condition of our company now?"
"Many business partners are trying to take over our company and are trying to buy shares and some are to cancel the orders they placed and terminate the agreements they signed."
"So what do you think is the best solution for all this?"
"First step is to clear the rumour that you are in Coma!"
"Arrange an press conference!"
"Ok"
"Laptop!"
