So, he started dating Victoria, despite the age difference. Alex is also successful, as he holds a 50% share of the ‘Melissa’ group at present.

After suffering betrayal, Alex’s father suffered a heart attack and died. Although, he left an enormous fortune for Alex, Alex’s mother, and Alex’s siblings. Currently, Alex runs their family business and is an entrepreneur.

Despite showing, no feelings for Victoria, Alex started to resume his normal life. However, somewhere he felt he was missing something. He started dating a few girls of his age, but he didn't find any emotional connection with them. Alex started missing the connection he had when he was with Victoria.

Later, Alex visited with Victoria at her house to see her father, who was about to breathe his last. Victoria reveals that he has fallen in love with Alex and wants to marry him. She also reveals the identity of Alex to her father. Victoria's father apologized to Alex for his past and asked him to keep his daughter happy. After that, Victoria’s father died.

Later, Victoria and Alex discover that Victoria’s father is not the main mastermind who betrayed Alex’s father. A few of Victoria’s father’s business partners were also associated with the deception. The couple used their intelligence and disclosed the truth of the corrupt business partner’s identity to the public. People boycotted their products and their business down to zero. Later, police arrested them for their illegal and harmful products.
