"I will make her life a living hell!!"

It has been a few weeks after Aliya was discharged from the hospital but all she thought about was her sister.

All she got from Rukiya were threatening messages saying she killed Alina.

But the road to her recovery was long and hard especially when Aliya needed physical therapy for her leg. Nanny Lea knew that Aliya's state of mind would never be the same as before the accident.

Aliya couldn't sleep without getting nightmares of the accident. Aryan suggested to her to see someone for that but Aliya knew that she deserved what happened to her especially after Rukiya kept calling her a murderer each time she saw her at the house.

"Nanny, I promise that I am fine. And alhamdulilah I am at the house now with you and let's not forget that Red and Zayn are always visiting me," Aliya tried to assure her but deep inside Nanny knew that she was lying to keep a fake facade.

Nanny Lea nodded and left her in the room but in her heart, she knew that staying at the house would be a bad thing for Aliya's mental health.

Meanwhile, Rukiya got news that Hamza has taken over his family's company and that's when her plan was set in motion.

She drove to the company hoping to get through to him and make him the pawn in her game.

"I am here to see Hamza. He knows who I am," she arrogantly said to the receptionist.

Rukiya then said her name and waited for the receptionist to call Hamza.

"You can go in...But you will need a visitor's pass," the receptionist said handing Rukiya a card.

She grabbed the card and did not even thank her and walked towards the elevator.

Let's put on a show, shall we? Farha, I need your daughter to leave and never come back. And then I will be the only one who will inherit Zayd's money. Not even my mother-in-law will get into the plan I have for Aliya.

As the elevator opened Rukiya put in a few eye drops resulting in her eyes tearing.

The office door opened revealing Hamza smiling but as soon as he saw the fake tears in Rukiya's eyes. He started to get angry at Aliya.

"Come inside my office, Aunt."

Rukiya walked inside smirking inwardly knowing that Aliya would be in trouble and thats what she wanted.

"Take a seat and I will get you some water..."

"No, I came here to talk to you about what you are planning on what to do about that girl. I don't want her to sent to jail. I want her to suffer..."

"I understand that Aunt. You are always thinking about her and her Nanny. But what do you want me to do?" Hamza asked as he took a sit beside Rukiya.

"I want you to make her life a living hell. I want you to hurt her in the way she will always think of what she had done to my daughter," Rukiya explained to Hamza the plan, she wanted him to follow. "Maybe she will leave us alone once and for all," she added.

"I understand that Aunt. I know what to do. Dont worry about that. You can keep your mind at ease," Hamza said.

Rukiya thanked him and walked out of the office with a smirk, the first phase of the plan had begun but for the second part, she would need to do something drastic to Aliya.

I am not sorry for what I am doing. I need to secure my future because I know that Zayd will do everything to get that DNA test I always told him not to. I should have been an actress playing Hamza and Aliya.

Hamza knew what to do about Aliya and that it would hurt more than ever because every time he saw her. She will always remind him of Alina.

He had his secretary contact Aliya and asked her to come to see him tomorrow.

Aliya was shocked to receive a call from Hamza's secretary and that he wanted to see her. She was curious as to why he would ask her to meet her after the accusation he threw at her while she was at the hospital.

"What's wrong Aliya?" Nanny Lea asked.

"I got an unexpected phone call from Hamza. His secretary asked me to come and see him tomorrow," Aliya explained. "But I am scared of what he want from me, especially after the accusation he made when I was at the hospital", she added.

Nanny knew that Aliya was scared of what would happen if she went to see Hamza but she would be more worried if he was planning something bad to harm her.

"Maybe he just wants to talk..."

"Nanny, let's be real. He thinks that I killed the love of his life. And I doubt that he will thank me for being alive. My guess is that he wants something and I won't have a choice but to accept his demands if that happens," Aliya said.

Nanny Lea knew what she was saying was true. No one will believe Aliya if there's no proof or anything about the accident or even the body of Alina.

Rukiya didn't even let her father see Alina's body before saying she should be buried immediately.

And this is why Aryan needs to investigate before anything bad happens to our Aliya. And I will have to make sure that she is safe from Rukiya and whatever she had planned for her.

"Okay, Aliya. Then I suggest you go there with an open mind. Remember what Uncle Aryan said; "Be prepared for anything that might happen during this time."

Nanny reminded her.

Aliya nodded.

The next morning, Aliya woke up earlier than usual and prepared for whatever outcome would come to her meeting Hamza in his office.

She prayed Fajr and made a Dua that everything would be fine.

In shaa Allah.

When it was time to leave, Nanny Lea called Red to ask her to drop off Aliya at Hamza's office.

"Take care of her Muskaan. I know that Hamza isn't in a state of calm mind because of what Rukiya might have told him," Nanny warned Red.

"I know that Nanny. And dont worry, Zayn and I won't let anything bad happen to Aliya," she said, hugging Nanny. "I will keep you posted," she added when Aliya walked out of the house.

"Shall we go now?"

"Yes, we can."

Aliya faced her Nanny and hugged her.

"It will be fine Nanny. Believe in Allah. And believe that He will make everything right," Aliya said.

Nanny watched as the two girls drove away. Her heart felt heavy whenever Aliya would encounter people who accused her of killing Alina.

In the car, Muskaan looked at her friend and wanted to ask her a question but she couldn't bring herself to do it.

"I know that you have a question, Red. Ask best friend."

"Is Hamza stupid enough to believe people he met for two years before you? We met him, his sister plus cousins when we were kids but one rumoru that Alina started because of her jealousy and he left you to be with someone who hated you and wants to hurt you just because of something that happened in the past between your mothers," Red said, making Alina smile.

"Red, you can make people be with you when they are too blind to see what is in front of them. Just like Hamza, if he believed Alina before and now he will also believe her mother. Muskaan, you should know that a childhood friendship is more important than the rumours people will try to spread about your friends," Aliya explained. "I dont want to think of the past or of the feelings I had for him. He doesnt deserve any feelings I have for him," she added, sliently wiping her tears.

Red knew what Aliya said was right. They arrived at the building office of Hamza but Aliya told her that she would call her if she needed a ride back.

Aliya calmly limped inside the building and saw someone was waiting for her.

"Are you Aliya Ahmed?" The woman asked.

"Yes, I am."

The woman nodded and asked Aliya to follow her. She led Aliya to the elevator and asked her to get in.

Hamza was waiting for her in his office. She walked in after the woman told him that she had arrived.

"Let her in and dont let anyone disturb us. You may go."

Aliya walked nervously inside the office to find Hamza staring at her.

"Sit down."

Aliya didn't question him, especially with the tone he used.

"Why did you do it, Aliya?" Hamza yells at her. He was more than angry at her, but she didn't know what she had done to deserve his anger.

"I... I did nothing. I don't even know how..."

Aliya couldn't even finish what she was trying to tell Hamza whatever he was accused of wasn't true, but who would be on her side?

"Yes, you do because you are the one who killed her, and now I won't let you go until you pay for what you have done to her; either you work for me or go to jail," Hamza yells at Aliya, who knew that he would do anything for her even if she were at fault.

But no one knew the actual truth apart from her family and herself. Unfortunately, she is dead, and Hamza thinks it's Aliya's fault.

"For how long?" Aliya asks him, trying to keep her tears inside her.

"As long as I want to make you suffer or until I am satisfied with my revenge," he explains to her.

Aliya had to agree with him so that he could get whatever he wanted from her if that would make up for whatever he was feeling.

"Okay, and when do I start?" she asks him without looking at his face.

"Right now, you will be my personal assistant, and I will need you day and night, no matter what time it is, and remember, I own you now," Hamza tells her with hatred.

Aliya didn't deserve the hatred she received, but he didn't know that.

All of this is because of you. All my life, I have had to pay for your mistakes, ever since my mother died because of your mother. You did whatever you wanted, and I became your and your mother's scapegoat. Until when will I be the one suffering from the decisions you made in your life?

After agreeing to work for him even though Aliya knew that this wasn't what he needed from her, Hamza wanted her to suffer for what happened to her stepsister, Alina.

Alina has always been perfect in her stepmother's and father's eyes. She would harm no one, so blaming Aliya for something that she did was a piece of cake.

In the coming days, Hamza will give her the worst tasks that any assistant would be given by their boss. But fortunately for her, she knew how to do them in less time than he wanted them done.

Hamza grew angrier at her because he saw her every time. He remembers Alina fighting for her life in the hospital before she died.

"Aliya, do this again, and this time do it correctly; I don't want any type of mistake!" Hamza yelled at her.

Aliya didn't even correct him when he told her to do the papers correctly, as they had already been corrected twice by her.

"Okay, sir, I will get right to it," she says, taking the file and then walking out of the office, leaving Hamza dumbfounded because he thought that she would talk back to him.

Hamza took out a picture of Alina from his drawer and caressed it.

"I will do anything to punish her for what she did to you. I need you, Habibty, more than ever," he says to the photographer.

I wish I could have done more to help you, but Allah knows why you were in the car with her. And I want her to be punished by me. I would send her to jail, but why would I do that when it wouldn't bring you back?
