The Tunisiany state has returned to its tranquility three months after the laying of rest and interment of their first military president.

He squinted his eyebrows and stepped out of the room.

He was leaving the country by next week to England but before that he has to make sure that her mum was okay.

He knew that he can't leave her in that condition. He sat down on the wooden embroidery chair.

After the death of his father, the same people who eradicated his father had been after him.

He took a deep breath and stood up and glanced at the closed door before scrolling out of the place.

" Baby , my hands are tied ." She said wiping her tears

" But don't worry, I must bring you back.."

" You dare not woman! " A deep masculine voice said behind them .

Sungal stepped into the place together with the young major general and two other young men.

Flosa looked at her husband and sigh. She knew he was wicked but she can't believe that he was giving her daughter up for adoption.

" Must you do these , we can still find other way out." flosa said in a painful tone

" There is no way out apart from these. Now hand her over to me."

She left the country before him....

"Sir, we have arrived." the chauffeur announced bringing him out of his thought.

Before his arrival to England , his name and identity were changed in the sense that he can't be traced. His father's best friend more of a mentor helped in the processing of it.

His beautiful and happy family were destroyed because of greed and jealousy of people. He took a deep breath and sighed. He wasn't even aware when his great grandfather will wake up.

The door was opened by a soldier and he stepped out of the car.

He tightly held his windbreaker around his body to protect him from the cold.

"Let's go boy." he looked up to see his adopted father.

The only ones that will know his true identity were the Queen and the soldiers around here.

He nodded and followed him inside led by a soldier. As they worked along the beautiful long corridor. He was astonished on how beautiful the place were.

"Good morning Her Majesty." He raised his eyebrows and was surprised with what beheld him.

He was busy admiring the place that he wasn't aware, when they stepped into the throne room.
