Mark's Pov:

I wish Daniel should not say who is that person because it is a kind of test to him about the confidentiality he maintain so we can trust him further and let him know any confidential matters related to Ria, whatever I tried and requested him in all the possible ways to know the person where my uncle cautioned him in my engagement party…

Mark: Daniel, please tell me who is he, if you shut your mouth it's very tough to sort out the case and we can't find who poisoned Rubeus uncle…

So please try to understand and tell me, who is he…

Daniel: Sorry, boss…

I should have shut my mouth, but out of curiosity, I spell out, please try to understand boss. I can't tell you anything, and I can't break the Rubeus sir rules, so please try to understand…

Mark: Your Rubeus sir is my close uncle, you can trust me…

Daniel: No, boss, it's not about how close you are to Rubeus sir, it's about how I followed his rules and maintain the confidentiality. I know I made a mistake, I should not have told you about my views that I observed in the party. I made a mistake by letting you know the part of the information and not saying the remaining information. I am so sorry…

Mark: Daniel, you didn't do anything wrong, you can trust me and can tell me who it is…

Daniel: I will tell you after I take the acceptance from Rubeus sir, because we agreed on everything to be secret, so please try to understand boss…

Mark: Yes, I am confident that my uncle will give acceptance to you to say whatever I ask, but at present his health condition is very crucial and if I take permission from him, he might have got more stress.

(He didn't respond to me and stay quiet, I understand it's impossible to know that person without my uncle's permission. Okay, I understand his genuinity and he maintains the confidentiality, but now the matter to know who is that person is very important, and knowing that person is more important because we have no clue that who might attack my Rubeus uncle and knowing it as early as possible is more important and it's better I should confirm to Mona whether I can ask Rubeus uncle about it or not.

So I immediately take my phone and about to call to Mona, but in return I got a call from Mona, I immediately responded to her call

Mona: Hey, Mark, are you busy?

(I understand Mona is nervous a bit I immediately stopped the car to know what is the reason behind her call.)

Mark: No, Mona, I am on the way to my home…

Mona: Okay, we dropped Anna at home…

(I understand this is not the thing she needs to say…)

Mark: What happened, Mona?

Everything okay?

Mona: Yes Mark, I just want to tell you something…

Mark: Okay, about?

Mona: about Rubeus uncle…

Mark: What happened, Mona?

What happened to Rubeus uncle?

Is he okay?

Mona: Rubeus uncle is safe Mark, nothing happened to him…

Mark: Okay…

Mona: I just got his reports…

Mark: reports?

Mona: Yes, Mark, I got the reports of the food sample extract from Rubeus uncle, do you remember after Rubeus uncles incident I told that I send the samples to lab…

Mark: Yeah, Yeah…

What is the result of the report, Mona?

Mona: The report says its just a mild food poision…

Mark: What?

Food poision?

Do you think Rubeus uncle got serious just because of mild food poison?

His health condition is still serious and how can it be a mild food poison, Mona. Check the reports once again or send the samples once again I am sure the report is wrong.

Mona: Yes, Mark, you are right; the reports are wrong that's the reason I send the samples to two different laborateries…

Mark: Mona, I can't understand what you are saying, can you tell me clearly?,

Mona: Mark, on that night I send the samples to the regular laboratory where all the samples of my hospital will send but I got doubt about the accuracy of our regular laboratory and I think it's better to take a second opinion so I send the sample to 2nd laboratory too…

Mark: Okay…

Mona: and today I got the two reports from two laboratories, and the report of my regular laboratory says it's just a mild food poision and nothing is dangerous.

Mark: What is the second laboratory report says?

Mona: The second laboratory report says the food is poisoned with a cynide and some other dangerous chemicals...

Mark: What?Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #..._51208991807693408 for visiting.

Mona: Yes Mark, as we already guessed that someone might mixed the poison in the food and that what second report says...

And Rubeus uncle just take a sip of wine so we can easily save him through medication. But if he drink the entire glass of wine, I no need to say it clearly what would happen next...

It's all our luck, Mark...

Luckly he is alive now…

(After listening to Mona my mind was blank for a few seconds, and yes we predict that someone might mix the poision but deep down of my heart I have a hope that it's just a mild food poision but not its proved that someone really tried to kill my uncle through mixing the poision in the food he is taking...)

Mona: Hey Mark..!

Mark..!

Mark: Yeah..!

Mona: Mark, please stay calm and go to Home...

Mark: okay, did you say anything to Anna?

Mona: No Mark, I didn't yet say anything to Anna, we can discuss about it later...

Mark: okay...

Mona: be careful Mark...

Mark: okay, you too, stay safe...

Mona: tomorrow is your business trip, right?

Mark: yeah...

Mona: is it necessary to go to business trip?

Mark: that's okay Mona, no one knows about the trip and you guys hang to me this Daniel. So no need to worry about it...

Mona: Okk, How is he?

Is he okay to carry with you?

Mark: a little headache but ok, if not you people appoint an escot team, so its better I should carry this little headache…

Mark: ok then, bye...

(After I hang the call I started driving to home and thinking who might be the person who poisioned Rubeus uncle. Is he intentionally poisoned Rubeus uncle or Rubeus uncle accidentally picked the poisioned wine glass?

No...

Daniel said and even I saw in the CCTV footage that Nanny exclusively served the drink to Rubeus uncle.

So Nanny involved in this mystery case?

No...

No...

Their might be a chance that someone portrays Nanny and they might plan that we should think Nanny is behind all these...

Whatever we should not get into conclusion until we find a clue to solve it...

Daniel: What happened, boss?

Mark: Nothing…

(I said and started the car and driving to home.)

Daniel: anything serious?

Mark: Why should I say to you?

Daniel: come on boss...

Mark: No... No...

If you are good at maintaining your promises, I am good at maintaining my friends promise so I don't let you know...

Daniel: Okay boss, I will take Rubeus sir permission and let you know everything. I am so sorry that I didn't help you right now, I hope you will excuse me...

Mark: that's okay...

(Actually I want to call to Mona to take my uncle's permission but after listening to the fact about the report, I don't want him to take more stress. So after his health condition is stabilized I will ask him. Inbetween my thoughts I again visualise the CCTV footage of what I saw...

After Rubeus uncle spoke to Daniel, Joseph uncle came close to Daniel and spoke something. So it's better I should ask him about it.)

Mark: Okay, at my engagement party after Rubeus uncle gave warning to you about some person, Joseph uncle came to you and speak something to you, am I right?

Daniel: Yes boss, I don't know his name is Joseph, but he came close to me and asked me who am I,

Mark: Okay, what did you said to him?

Daniel: I said I am your close childhood friend, and by looking at his expressions I can understand he didn't trust me, but I acted casual...

Mark: So, you already lied that you are my friend...

Daniel: Yes boss, but that old man is so intelligent I guess, he knows everyone in the party and he directly came to me to inquire who I am...

Mark: yeah, he is our companies ex personal assistant and he knows almost all the guests, so he might ask you to know who you are and one more thing he is Genie's father…

Daniel: What?

Is that true boss?

Mark: Yes, he is Genie's father...

Daniel: Wow, that's great, I spoke to my father in law...

(I smile by looking at him and he is so anxious, in between our chit chat we reached our home. I asked him to stay in the hallway and ordered NAnny to arrange a room for him and I also said that he is my childhood friend, Nanny looked at me confused because she knows all of my childhood friends but I acted casual and lead to my room.)
