Married to my nemesi Chapter 33: The truth

Chapter 33: The truth

"What are you talking about? There’s nothing I have that relates with that man."

"Then at least could you tell

the connection father had with the Lane Marvel family?"Enim tried to insinuate but then from Ana’s gaze, it seed she was disturbed by the na of theirs.

Enim triggered that imdiately, she was right after all, there was sothing that bastard that calls himself Enim’s father had with her family.

But for so reason, she couldn’t recall where she had seen him in her house while she was still Prudence.

"Enim I heard Vixen tried to—" Ana tried to divert the topic but then Enim was adamant on the truth.

"Mum I don’t want to hear what has to do with Vixen. I want you to tell

the truth, what happened?"

Ana couldn’t help but heave a deep breath after all she had no other choice.

"When your father was young he was one of the capos of the Lane Marvel family. We got married but I never knew about that. Eventually, it didn’t take too long for

to find out the truth, I found out the ans he derived money from and I was scared about the situation. It was like he used my knowledge as a punishnt since I discovered what had happened, he made life worse for . He made

wait for him all day, I would cook food but he would co back later than usual. As of that ti you were still a small kid, I don’t think you would rember. In those tis you would wait along with

for your father’s arrival but you ended up sleeping. The situation eventually beca worse when I decided to question him about his whereabouts which made him co so late. We got into a heated argunt and then since that ti, he ca back a drunkard. All of a sudden he made this choice, he forcefully made us all leave where we were and asked us to live in our present house. I rember that I tried convincing him but then it ca the first ti that your father laid a hand on , I was severely hurt. I beca imnsely disheartened but I had to go whether I loved it or not, I couldn’t help but think of you every ti I thought of deciding to leave your father. "

" We relocated? "

" I told you Enim, you wouldn’t be able to rember it because you were still a kid. "

"Why did we relocate?"

"I discovered that he was afraid his boss was after his life, he did sothing so terrible when I tried asking him what it was he wouldn’t tell . The day we relocated he bought fancy things and drank to his heart was content and stupor. Since that day the number of bottles he took increased, I knew he must have probably stolen money from his boss that’s why he had so much money to spend but he wouldn’t tell."

"And then he would brutally beat you?"

Ana timidly had a sad smile on.

Enim heaved a deep breath, the money, what was the money for?

Enim knew sothing must have been up that was why her father wouldn’t say a word.

But maybe he did it out of his greediness.

"Let’s change the topic, I don’t want to rember those days," Ana said confronted by those mories.

"Okay," Enim said with a small smile, she raised her hand so she could massage her hand.

"My dear, could you give

a hug?" Ana desired as Enim sat up on the stool and then she reached for Ana comfortably pattering her as she placed her head on her shoulder.

How she loved the feeling.

"I just want you to know sothing Mum, Father is dead, you won’t see him anymore, and there wouldn’t be any need to recall those mories of that cruel man," she whispered in her ear.

Phoebe sat on the end of the long table as she had her pen played around her fingers, her eyes hooked on the presentation of her employee like a hawk.

As the remaining set their eyes on the presentation they couldn’t help but make the corner of their eyes target at the ice queen.

Her eyes bored like it was sothing unworthy of her ti.

They inwardly prayed to gain that good review after doing the particular project about a thousand tis, she was a triggering soul that made the souls of her employees pray to finally gain those good words from her.

As the presentation was done, the employees clapped in command but then they noticed she didn’t even raise a hand to clap.

Did they make the wrong move?

The employee gulped, they crossed their fingers behind their back as they turned to hear the judgnt from her.

After a while of a defeating silent deanor, she opened her mouth to speak.

As she was about to articulate, the hearts of her employees pondered.

"Is okay, I see potential in this one," she calmly stated as they all released the breath they’d held with thankful praises inwardly.

"eting adjourned," she stood up from her seat as she walked away from the conference room.

While she was out her secretary was about to head after her but she had to attend to one of the mbers.

Phoebe walked away while her secretary spoke to a man for a while since she had to elaborate on so details but inwardly she counted her ti to leave so she could catch up to Phoebe.

When she was done with the conversation, she turned to see the room absent of Phoebe who had already left the conference room.

She walked out of the room to inform Phoebe of sothing ergent but she wasn’t in the hall, she took her phone and then sent a ssage to the office’s line so she could tell Phoebe before she arrived at her office.

In the anwhile, Phoebe reached for the knob of the door about to open it but then her attention was averted towards the ringtone that ca from her phone.

She raised it to see it was a ssage notification, her finger touched the screen about to see the ssage but then she was once again distracted since she heard a noise coming from her office.

A frown ford on her face, she expected it to be empty.

She turned the knob of the door and then walked into the room.

She furrowed her eyebrows noticing the chair of hers was turned behind, she hastened her steps curious about who was there.

When she got closer, she reached for the head of the chair and then turned it around, when her eyes caught the individual an angry but awe expression dazzled on her face surprised by who was seated.

The familiar was eating nuggets on her chair!!

"You?! What are you doing here?" She exclaid seeing the sa man who had drunk from her bottle.

"Sis?" Another person spoke as she turned behind to see who it was, it was Max.

She was agape.

"Max?" She called out to him as he rushed towards her and then he hugged her.

She smiled as she released herself a bit so she could take a look at him.

"When did you arrive? I thought you would be coming tomorrow?"

"Umm, I know but what’s the use of coming without it being a surprise? That’s why I told neither you nor Mom about my arrival. "

"You silly boy," she said nudging him on the shoulder, and then she released herself.

"And him?" She indicated as she pointed to the man with a bowl of nugget al.

"Oh yeah, that is my close friend, Zayn but it seems you two know each other. How do you—"

"The one who drank out of my bottle," Phoebe said with a straight face, her voice with utmost disgust as she folded her arm.

Zayn scratched his head guilty as her gaze was shot at him.

She scared him out like she was going to get him killed instantly for that silly mistake.

"Oh my dude, you got to take from water her bottle? How did it taste? I’m sure she had a bad mouth taste, right?"

Max teasingly said out in awe intentionally agitating Phoebe.

She knew he was doing it purposefully since nobody in the house had the opportunity to share water from the one Phoebe had already drunk.

She looked at him and then the next second, she attacked him.

"I’ll kill you," she said in anger as Max ran scared for his life with Phoebe after him.

Zayn couldn’t help but laugh in reaction, Max ca by him turning the chair around so Phoebe wouldn’t catch him.

As Phoebe was after him, she missed a step and then fell.

But while she fell, she held Zayn’s hand bringing him along with her fall as she ended up on top of him while they lay on the ground.

They stared into each other eyes, a centiter apart as her hair covered their faces.

Zayn held her waist, her hands gripped to his shoulder.

"What are you doing? Kissing?" Max interrupted in jest as Phoebe stood along with Zayn.

She looked at the both of them in a timid mood, her eyes were confined by the events that happened because of those two.

"You both are unwelco here, both of you, move out of my office!!" Phoebe said in frustration as she took their hands and then she singlehandedly pulled them out of the office, she slamd the door on them.

Thrown like lifeless goods they stared at her closed door wondering her temperantal attitude, one mont she was happy and another, she beca angry.

She was strange.

"Dude, I think your sister doesn’t like

one bit at the mont," Zayn spoke guiltily as he turned to Max licking the manageable crumbs of nuggets on his hand like a glutton.

Max chuckled.

"You’re right, but that’s how she is," he stated as he patted Zayn on his shoulder and then they headed for their next direction.
