43 Drifting away (1/2)

After going back, the trio told everything to Noah who was angry after knowing that Meera was lying to him all this while. She came back after 30 minutes as she had to walk all the way from the headquarters to the palace which was outside the city. She had no money to take a cab as she left in a hurry earlier. Her feet started hurting because of walking so long.

She entered the palace and Noah was sitting on the sofa in the front.

”I'm sorry it so long.” She said as she knew he would be a little angry.

”Don't worry after all you need time to plan against us.” He said with a serious face.

”I…I'm not.” She said and was shocked that he would believe in the rumor so easily.

”STOP LYING!” He shouted and she flinched at his sudden reaction. ”If you do anything to harm my family I won't forgive you.” He warned her. She closed her fists tightly as his tone was similar to Sam's. He left after this.

”This exactly how you should be treated.” Someone said from behind. She started shaking as soon as he heard this voice. It was from Sam.

”I'm back my 'Dear Daughter'.” He said in her ear and she backed away.

”Why are you afraid of me? Too sad I came here just for you.” He said and stepped towards her. She stepped back, tears started running down her eyes. He was getting close.

”Uncle?” Noah said from behind and Sam turned towards him. Meera wiped away her tears immediately.

”You were coming tomorrow right?” Noah asked.

”I wanted to surprise you.” He replied and hugged him.

”Who is she by the way?” He asked.

”She's just a bodyguard,” Noah replied and took him to meet everyone.
