Viola smoothly separated herself and now is looking into my face. There is a small smile on her lips and a sorrowful expression on her face. Viola is feeling worry for something but for what? I know Viola always worries for me a lot and there is no surprise if she is worrying too much for me then.

"Viola, you are worrying for something, tell me what it is?" still looking into her eyes I asked her. Both of us are in each other's hold then.

"No I am not worrying for anything" she is still smiling simply so.

"Oh, Viola you are. You are struggling for something and cannot express that to me."

"Never, Dazzle. I never struggle for anything while you are with me." She hugged me strongly while pressing her right cheek to my left cheek.

I am feeling surprise finding wetness on her cheek. Undoubtedly tears are flowing down on her cheeks.

"We all shall be here by the time Smaran comes." My aunt is saying. "We take that Doctor Nickerson also here. I am thinking that he also should be here. He is so intimate with our family."

"You are absolutely right. May I too come with you? I think you are all going to Church first." Looking at them I said.

"No Dazzle you must be here. If Smaran has come before we return it is quite better that you would be here to welcome him." Viola said.

I nodded my head. I don't know why but suddenly I am feeling quite uneasy.

"Don't worry Dazzle. We shall be here just in half an hour or so." Viola is saying. "Just be relaxed and happy. Happy times are going to be start for you from now on."

Then she suddenly came to me, hugged me strongly and kissed on my both cheeks. There is the same sorrowful expression on her face and the small smile on her lips which I saw yesterday. Now she is looking straight into my face.

"Viola....why you are like this suddenly?" I am feeling lot of surprise.

"Bye Dazzle." Saying so Viola turned back. I am looking at Viola with surprise. The unknown uneasy feeling is continuing in me.

I just want to go into home then but I see George is coming. "Hello, Dazzle." He said.

"Welcome George. Please come in." giving room to him to come inside I said. I am following him deep into the house. Once we are inside, George and I slumped ourselves in one of the sofas there.

"Hello." I am seeing Menaka coming there with a smile on her lips.

"Hello Menaka, how do you do?" George asked her.

"Fine of course. My uncle just phoned to me. He would be here at any moment with all the evidence that is necessary."

"With all the evidence that is necessary." George is saying with a smile. "Anyhow Dazzle, where all the other people are?" looking into my eyes he asked.

"They went to Church. They said they do pick up Doctor Nickerson also with them while returning."

"It would be even more nice then.................." George is about to say something more but stopped seeing Smaran coming there.

"Welcome Mr.Smaran. We are waiting so eagerly for you." I got off from the sofa and said.

Smaran came with a smiling face and slumped himself in the opposite sofa there. "I know you are all waiting for me so eagerly. I think I am not too late to come here."

"You are exactly on time Mr.Smaran." I am feeling too eager and curious. When Viola, my aunt and Williams would return along with Dr.Nickerson?

There is some silence ensued which broken by Smaran himself. "Now I am going to fulfill my promise Miss Dazzle. I am going to let you know what was that your father so desperately wanted to tell you, who was behind that Chuck Watson programming you like that, who was behind for Nova's late husband talk like that with you and who was behind the accident of detective Salmon. I am going to clear all the doubts for you now itself."

"Mr.Smaran first make one thing quite clear to me. You have said something about Nova's late husband. What is that?"

"Nova's late husband never talked with her Miss Dazzle. She just acted like that. In fact she was planted in your organization by the same people who were behind all the other mysteries." Smaran is saying. "She was bribed with huge amounts. Once she came to know through the people who put her there that I am trying to unravel all the mysteries, she knew that her name also would come out. So she decided to go out like that. Those people also decided to let her go. It would be safer in such a way and there is no use of her to them now."

"Are they group of people Mr.Smaran? Not a single person?" I am feeling my heart beating with speed.

"Yes they are group of persons." With the same firmness Smaran said.

"Who are they Mr.Smaran? Please don't maintain suspense. I just cannot bear any of this." I am feeling terribly impatient.

"You must be patient. You have suffered all these days. Just wait some more time."

"Alright." I nodded my head and saying again. "What's the next step Mr.Smaran?"

"I asked you to do something. To make a list. Did you make any list?"

"Yes, I made a mini list."

"Will you please give it to me?"

I looked into the face of Menaka there who sat in a chair nearby to me. "There is a blue color note book in my bedroom. Will you please get it for me?"

"Sure." Menaka said and got off from the chair and started going towards my bedroom upstairs. Breathing deeply I reclined in the sofa. Time is passing by very heavily. "Here is your book Dazzle." Hearing Menaka's voice I opened my eyes. "Thank you" I said and took the book from Menaka's hands. I am flipping through the pages to the pages where I made the list.

"Here. See these." I proffered the notebook towards Smaran keeping my index finger at the pages where I have made the list. Smaran took the book from my hands keeping his index finger at the divided section to see not the papers mixed. The he opened the book wide and started reading the list I made so far. There is no expression on his face. Just in seconds he completed reading the list and handed over the book back to me hissing out heavily.

"Miss Dazzle" Smaran is saying in a measured tone. "That thing is like that it does not even enter into your mind. It is something that you do not think so even by chance. That is why your father wrote in the diary like that it is very difficult to convince you about that."

"What is that Smaran? What is that? I just cannot understand anything." I am feeling like that I am becoming mad.

"Dazzle" George suddenly intervened and came near to me and put his hand around my shoulders. "Now you are going to witness such things you never expected in your life. These things make you to lose your belief and trust totally on human relations and totally on human kind. There is no surprise that you do lose trust and confidence on me also."

"Why George, why you are saying all this to me? You also have decided to torture me like this?" I am now feeling intensive fear rather than irritation.

"It is necessary Dazzle. It is must." George is saying. "Before Mr.Smaran unravels those mysteries to you, you have to give me your word Dazzle. The word that whatever effect the things you are going to hear may have on you that you don't lose your confidence and trust on me. The word that our love will be like this forever. Even you do lose your confidence and trust on whole human relations you don't lose trust on my love. Give me that word first to me Dazzle. Give me that word first."

"Why it is so George? I cannot understand. Everything is so confusing to me."

"Everything shall be so clear to you. First make that promise to me Dazzle. Make that promise to me." It is surprising to me that George is asking that so vehemently.

"Alright." I breathed heavily, hissed out and am saying with a firm voice. "Whatever may happen, whatever may be the effect of the things I am going to hear from Mr.Smaran, my love on you never does change. Because it is I who chose you. It is I who started loving you first. My love on you remains the same all the time."

"Thank you, thank you very much." George suddenly hugged me strongly and kissed on my right cheek. Then he left me and adjusted himself on the sofa beside me and said to Smaran. "Mr.Smaran you may please continue."

"Mr.Smaran. Just a moment." I intervened hastily and am saying. "Why don't you wait few more minutes? My aunt, brother and friend along with Dr.Nickerson may come at any moment."

"No Miss Dazzle. I am not going to wait for anyone. This must not be stopped anymore."

The firmness in his voice is troubling to me. "Then as you wish Mr.Smaran. Please continue."

Smaran got off from the sofa opposite to our sofa and went some far and turned back. He is looking straight into my eyes. Now he is talking.

"Miss Dazzle. Tell me one thing. If your father said to you that your aunt Catherine, brother Williams, friend Viola and Doctor Nickerson plotted against you and they are trying to do harm to you would you believe it? If your father said to you that your aunt Catherine, brother Williams, friend Viola and Doctor Nickerson were conspired together and ready even to kill you for your properties, would you believe it?

***

I am dumbfounded, shocked, flabbergasted. Smaran said with such a clear voice they sunk perfectly into my mind but it is becoming difficult to me to digest what Smaran has said.

"What, what you are talking?" my voice is terribly shivering while talking. I am feeling surprise that I am still talking. After hearing that my mind has become numb.

"Yes Miss Dazzle. That is what exactly happened. They employed that Chuck Watson in USA to introduce himself to you and then systematically got you programmed by him to madness. It is these people make Nova Harrison to apply for the job of secretary. If she has not been selected as secretary they might have followed some other way. Luckily for them you people have selected her as your secretary. Your father has got doubt on these people and appointed detective Salmon to investigate. But it took time to Salmon to know about the truth. But even before that Salmon reported something, your father came to know the truth. He wanted to tell you only about these people."

I got off from the sofa immediately. "You liar...liar...how dare you are talking about my family like this?" I am hysterically screaming now. I fall on him and took the collar of his shirt into my hand. "I did a big mistake by agreeing to your investigation."

"Dazzle, cool, cool yourself. He has come here with full evidence. Just think. Use your head. What that you don't believe even your father said that to you?"

Slowly and slowly I am digesting. I am seeing the meaning of it. "But why....why...why...my dad always said that he would give half of the property to my aunt's family. We never want to keep all that with us."

"But your aunt's family want full of it not the half. What your aunt's family thinking indeed is with the money of your aunt's husband, that means the brother of your father, your father started the business. In their opinion he became rich only with their money. So they want it in full. They planned to make you systematically mad and kill yourself. They want to be careful that no one can show a finger towards them."

"But....but....why Williams stopped me on that day? If he left me on that day so I would have jumped over the parapet wall."

"No Dazzle. It was not so on that day. You have come upto the parapet wall but was not trying to jump over it. You were just anxious then to find out the weeping woman's voice but not under the control of it that much as recently it happened. Williams was just there on the back of you to see if you may jump. As you did not jump at all like that he came near to you and gave a show like that he saved you. Your mind was not at all in a proper condition to understand anything in a better way.
