Chapter 100 It felt much better to know where Anthony was, just like how it was always better to know where the monster was when one was lost in a forest.
She did not know when he would appear or attack, so she needed time to prepare herself, instead of waiting passively for him to jump her, otherwise she would be dead before she knew it. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Even so, it was still extremely challenging for her to escape Luton.
She could not obtain her passport and after failing to escape the first time, Anthony had been more cautious with her. Aside from that, knowing where Anthony was did not mean everything, because he still had a team of capable bodyguards.
Still, her situation had improved slightly.
Considering what had happened, Anne decided that she needed to speak to her aunt and made a phone call to her. “Anne, why are you calling me during this time of the day? Aren‘t you busy at work?” Sarah asked gently. “Auntie, what happened yesterday?” Anne asked, “I was worried sick when you called my mom over. I thought something bad had happened to her.” “What are you trying to say?”
Anne knew that no matter how close she was with her aunt, her aunt was still no her mother and while she might be allowed to get angry at her mother, she could not confront her aunt. They were not directly connected by blood, so she had no right to accuse Sarah of anything without thinking of the consequences.
“Auntie, I don‘t mean to accuse you of anything. It‘s just that...my mom is finally back and I treasure our time together. I know you do everything out of concern for me, but can we all just forget about the past? My mom was never happy in her marriage, so I don‘t blame her for what she did. I really don‘t! I hope that you can accept her.”
Upset, Sarah responded in frustration, “Not only did she abandon you, she even killed your dad. You might be able to forget about that, but I can‘t. If only Anthony didn‘t stand in my way, I would have wanted her dead.”
“Auntie...” Anne did not know what to do, because she understood how Sarah felt. “Can you please just let go for my sake? If you can‘t get along with her, just ignore her, okay? My mom won‘t appear before you ever again.”
Sarah remained quiet for a while, before asking, “Let me ask you something, Anne. If your mom and I fall into a river at the same time and you can only save one of us, who will you help?
“Huh?” Anne had not expected her to ask such a question and was not sure of what to say. “Are you going to save her and let me die?” “Of course, not!” Anne cared equally for her mother and her aunt. “Answer me, then.”
“Can‘t I save you both?” Anne asked.
“I get it. I won‘t push you anymore. Goodbye.” Anne stared at her phone helplessly, not knowing how she could resolve the differences between her aunt and her mother.
After hanging up, Sarah struggled to regain her composure.
‘Save us both, huh?‘ She thought, ‘It‘s a shame but only one of us gets to live! No one can find out about my secret, otherwise Ron will never forgive me! if he divorces me, all the wealth I‘ve worked so hard to obtain will turn to dust! I won‘t let that happen!‘
