Anna looked at her mother and grandmother, who looked stern in having all the answers to their questions. 'Of course, they won't entertain any lies.'
The fact that they were almost a lie-detecting machine made her stomach twist as she thought of the consequences which she could face if they aren't satisfied with what she replies back.
Taking a deep breath, Anna spoke, "I...I had my reasons. I Plan to finish everything. This ga began since Chris asked for my hand in marriage but in the end, he will die from these hands only."
"Do you plan to kill Chris soon?" Grandmother Walker asked first as she looked at the killer intent in Anna's eyes.
"Yes! My plan is already the way and you might also rember our motive to co here. The school wills that really soon and I don't want to leave this work for so other ti." But hearing this, Marrie frowned.
She had no idea what they both were talking about because she was kept in dark about everything. She looked at Elder madam Walker with her confusional eyes and in return, she passed her a warm smile
This made her feel a little bit weird but she then again asked her.
"What are you both hiding from ? Please don't do sothing which is risky! I don't plan to risk Anna's life again just like last ti." As a mother, she had a deep trauma of losing her young son.
How can she afford to lose another precious child just like that? No!
Marrie can't help but think it like this.
She can't let revenge take Anna away from her, no matter what it costs. In the most prominent ti, she would rather go away from everyone, far away, and will just cut off contact with everyone if required
But Grandmother Walker understood how her daughter in law felt as she patted her back warmly and replied, "Anna is also our princess and our granddaughter. Don't worry, we won't let anything bad happen to Anna. trust ."
But it looked like she wasn't satisfied with whatever they both were planning. Seeing a frown settled on her face, Anna ca near her and hugged her shoulders as a little child would do.
"Mom, I agree that... I have committed any mistake in the past. But this ti, I'm well prepared. It would be his brother's fifth death anniversary and let this be special."
"Special? in what way do you an special?" Mother Marrie asked with a surprise.
She knew that Anna has planned sothing really big for her brother's revenge but Anna's confidence was making her feel a little bit nervous at the sa ti.
"Mom, I will make sure that the person who killed my brother is found out and killed on the sa day, when I lost my brother and you lost your son." with each passing word, her voice turns colder.
The mont she realized the fact that her detective will tell her about a key lead soon, she took an oath of completing this story the day her brother died.
"Does that an you are close enough to catch the culprit?"
"Yeah. I'm very close to a big lead. Don't worry, I won't harm how?" Marrie could only conclude this because there wasn't any way she would speak with such confidence in it and will obviously make sure that Chris suffers the most he can! This engagent.. will be the horror of his life!"
She had planned each thing with her own mind and hand. Her plan was already put into action, the day when she accepted Chris's offer of engagent and fought with Alex.
But on the other hand, it looked like the Grandmother was proud of whatever her granddaughter was doing. She had no objection and was happily supporting her in her decision, just like grandfather Walker.
But Marrie was still confused because she felt that her daughter would end up being hurt the sa way, she was five years ago!
Seeing that Marrie wants to talk to Anna alone, Grandmother Walker took the leave and gave the mother-daughter a little bit of personal space.
Marrie smiled seeing that her mother-in-law was so understanding and passed her a gentle smile as she closed the door behind her.
Then again, Marrie took Anna's hands into hers as she stared at her daughter's face concernedly.
"Anna, you do know that you're putting yourself into imnse danger?"
"I know that very well and I'm even prepared for it because this is.. what I have chosen myself." Anna held her chin high as always.
"So? What about your friend Alex and who is the brother of Chris?" Hearing his na from her mother's mouth, her smile vanished. This indication was enough for Marrie to understand that sothing was off between them.
When Marrie did not get any reply from Anna's side, she once again put forward her question, "Was Alex hiding sothing important from you? is that why you left him?"
"Mom, can we just not talk about him? I'm not interested in speaking about him anymore and We haven't talked for a long ti." Anna requested her mother which made Marrie understand that sothing happened.
"Anna.. you do know that you can share everything with ? Tell , was Alex hiding sothing from you? Is that big?"
"No..I an yes he is hiding sothing from but.. he isn't ready to disclose it anyti soon. I asked him to tell .. but he.. wasn't ready and just that... it's not important." Her voice was breaking with each passing second.
The strong Anna was no longer seen as she was now replaced with a broken-hearted teen, who felt heartbroken by the truth and not being beside her lover!
It was eating her from inside the fact that she was getting married to soone else except Chris, although the garnt won't happen.
It was all just a drama but he.. simply asked her to call him whenever she is ready to be with him instead of painting such tricks.
Tears were on the verge of falling as Anna laid her head in Mother Marrie's lap while Marrie massaged her scalp with her gentle hands.
"M...Mom, I... I just wanted to be with him but he.. is being stubborn! All I'm asking him is to help with this plan and I will be with him but he is being ignorant!" Anna cried in the laps of her mother.
Marrie understood the situation in which Anna was put. She loved soone else but was getting engaged to soone else. But at the sa ti, without being partial, she felt that sad for Alex too.
'He is a good child but God is testing their both bond and love for each other. Oh God, how many hardships they will have to undergo?' Marrie prayed in her heart that this situation ends as soon as possible.
Because for her, Anna's happiness is all that matters.
After a while, Anna fell asleep in Marrie's lap as she adjusted and made her body lay on the bed. Covering her with blankets, she switched off the light and closed the curtains.
Going outside of the room, she saw Liam standing beside the door outside, in the hallway, trying to build up courage for sothing.
"What happened? Why do you look so nervous?" Marrie asked as she looked at her husband.
Liam, who wasn't aware of Marrie's presence, turned around and saw her standing with her expressionless face. "Is Anna alright?"
"Yeah, she is. She was a little bit exhausted so I made her sleep so that she could be a fresh head. But you did not answer my questions." Marrie replied.
"Umm... I thought about talking with Anna once. This whole situation is really ssed up and I thought that as her father I should.."
"Father? Were you a father when you just gave her to soone else at the age of ten? I almost begged you but you did not listen to ever! I regret that I even married you and gave birth to such wonderful kids! Your career has made their life hell! Damn your underworld!" Marrie blasted at Liam who just lowered his face in sha
He had an idea that everything was happening because of his reckless decisions.
"Liam, why don't you go and return to your girlfriend or mistress? I won't mind you being absent from here, just go and leave us alone and let us live in peace!" This ti, mother Marrie left no space for Liam to answer back.
Her words were right and it was sticking to his heart as he kept quiet and let her say whatever she was trying to say.
Marrie gave him a glare and passed by his side to go back into her room to rest for a little bit while Liam just stared at his wife's back.
'I wish I could turn back the ti, Marrie. But this ti, I will help Anna in every way I can. This ti, she wouldn't be alone in fighting this battle!'
