Malik was at school, still upset about what had happened. Since he wasn't in a good mood, he gave his students a surprise exam, and all of them failed. This made him even angrier, so he assigned them homework, they had to solve ten equations at home. Anyone who didn’t complete the assignment would lose ten marks the next day.

If his students hadn’t been considerate of his mood and the current circumstances, they would’ve been upset with him, they would have pulled a prank on him, or complained to the dean for the tenth time that semester.

As they were leaving, one of his students, Mahmoud, said to him, "Don’t be upset, Professor, about the electronic flies. We’re all on the Knight's side and know it’s all just rumors and lies."

Malik told him he wasn’t upset or even thinking about it because he didn’t have social media accounts and he didn't check what people were saying online. Mahmoud replied, "That means the account sending friend requests to students and posting under the na

    The first thing Ali woke up to was his mother asking him about Haneen and whether he had liked the girl. He told her that she was a nice and smart girl, Mashallah. His mother's face light up, she said with a happy grin, "Excellent! Then just give me a date when you're not busy and we can go again with your father and your uncles to formally ask for her hand." Ali was shocked by his mother’s eagerness , "Wait a minute, why the sudden rush? Are you really going to marry me off to her just like that?" His mother raises an eyebrow, "That’s how our traditions are. I was younger than you when I married your father—I barely saw him once or twice before we got married." Ali protested "That doesn’t work for me. We need to get to know each other properly first." She responded, "No problem, you’ll get to know each other during the engagement. We’ll let you have a proper engagement period—you’ll exchange rings, go out, and spend time together. If you don’t click, then you can call it off.

  • Chapter 207, Dabab's sworn vengeance.

    When they were young, Haneen's older brother, Hatem, always walked her home from school. At fourteen, he was protective of his ten-year-old sister, holding her hand when the path grew rough, carrying her backpack when it grew heavy, and sometimes when she really pouted—giving her a piggyback ride. Their home lay two kilometers away from the school, nestled in a rural stretch of land where the winding trail cut through valleys, farmland, and sprawling olive groves. Sometimes, to save time, they'd take shortcuts through the fields.One afternoon, the sun burned mercilessly overhead as they trudged home. Haneen, sweat trickling down her temples, dragged her feet and whined, "Hatem, my legs hurt. Carry me!"He smirked, ruffling her hair. "You're too big for that now. Come on, keep up!""But it's hot!" she groaned, pouting."Then we'll run. The last one home will do the dishes." With a laugh, he took off ahead, kicking up dust as he sprinted down the path.Haneen huffed, stomping after him

    Ali was wearing a grey suit and had a bouquet of colorful flowers with him as he walked with his mother to her friend's house. When they arrived, Umm Hatem welcomed them warmly at the door."Come in, come in!" Umm Hatem said, ushering them inside. "It's been too long since we've seen each other."Umm Hatem and Ali's mother settled into comfortable chairs and began catching up. "How have you been?" Ali's mother asked. "Life has been keeping us so busy I hardly have time to visit anymore.""Alhamdulillah, we're doing well," Umm Hatem replied. "But you're right - we need to make more time for these visits."After about fifteen minutes of conversation, Umm Hatem suddenly remembered her daughter. "Oh! Where are my manners? Let me call Haneen to join us." She called out, "Haneen, habibti, come meet our guests!"Haneen entered the room, clearly shy and embarrassed. She quietly served them juice before sitting down. "This is my daughter Haneen," Umm Hatem said proudly.At first, Haneen avoide

  • Chapter 205, Perfect Match.

    Ali sat hunched over his laptop, frustration tightening his grip on the mouse as he scrolled through the dark web. He had spent days contacting hackers, but each one demanded unreasonably high fees upfront, refusing to share any useful information without payment. Sighing, he leaned back and rubbed his tired eyes. This wasn’t working. After several fruitless days, he went to the Knights’ headquarters and found Hazim. The older man looked up from his desk as Ali entered. "You look exhausted," Hazim remarked, studying Ali’s weary expression. "I’ve been studying alone for days," Ali admitted, dropping into a chair. "I couldn’t find anyone to help me." Hazim frowned. "No luck with the hackers?" Ali shook his head. "They all want money first. I don’t trust any of them." He hesitated before continuing. "There’s a method I’ve been thinking of trying, but I need to run a simulation first before attempting it on the airport system. The problem is, building a simulation program requir

    Ghassan called Harith and told him to come to his house, then immediately hang up. When Harith arrived at Ghassan's house, he found Ghassan alone. Ghassan explained that his wife and daughters weren't home, so he took the opportunity since he didn’t want anyone, not even his family, to know what they were doing. Harith sat down and asked what happened. Ghassan told him, "I tried to get into the control room to check the camera feeds, but every room is covered—there’s not a single angle without cameras. Unfortunately, there’s no way I can help you. Keep the money you gave me; I can’t do this." Harith didn't seem bothered and replied, "I already knew I couldn’t rely on you. No problem, I’ll just ask someone else and pay them more than I paid you." Ghassan stopped him and said, "What you’re doing is reckless and insane!" Harith responds, "Thanks for your concern. Please forget everything that happened between us and everything we discussed." He left Ghassan and went to Hazi

    Harith pushed open the front door of his house, as soon as he entered he noticed his wife. She stood in the hallway, arms crossed, her expression tight with frustration. "You’ve been coming home so late lately," she said, her voice sharp. "I thought once you retired, you’d finally stay home with your family and help me raise the kids. But instead, you found some 'Knights' group to volunteer with, and now you’re gone all day. I don’t even know where you go!" Harith exhaled, irritation flickering in his eyes. "Mashallah, as soon as your husband steps into the house, you start nagging and complaining, then act surprised when he doesn’t want to come home." His wife’s face flushed with anger. "Nagging? Is that what you call it when I ask you to be a father to your children?" Their voices rose, sharp words flying back and forth until, in a final burst of fury, she shoved him toward the door. "Get out!" Harith stumbled onto the doorstep, the door slamming shut behind him. With nowh
