Chapter 102: Meet me near the lake.
As if reading Anna's thoughts, Kath further said, "Anna, we can't do anything. It is his wish. Veronica belongs to a wealthy family. I heard it that there is some kind of deal between him and her family and the condition was to him to get married to Veronica." Kath explained with a sad face.
"So what? Just money is everything? No! I disagree with this marriage. I will stop this marriage and you will help me. You will get married to him!" Anna was persistent in making Kath as Sean's bride.
"Anna... Sit first." Kath made her sit and took her hands into hers.
"I know you are unhappy with everything happening. But how can I forget that I'm just a worker for him? My background is not known to anyone. How can I afford to love someone rich?" Kath said while hugging Goffy tight.
"Kath...."Anna wanted to say something but was interrupted by her mother's call from down.
"Children!! Come down, dinner is ready." Hearing this, Anna and Kath went down with Goofy. Mother Marrie gave Goofy dog food.
While having dinner, Kath was behaving normally. She was laughing with her mother Marrie but Anna can see in her eyes that she was hurt. Deeply hurt.
Right now, not even engagement happened and she was hurt so deep. What will happen when she sees them wed?
Anna can't even imagine about that time.
"I know about Sean's marriage." Marrie suddenly said.
Hearing this, Kath just lowered her head. What she can even say? Nothing.
"Sean is like my son. Seb and Sean were equal to me. I'm happy he is getting married. Kath, I know this is unfair, but I know him too well. He must be having some reasons."
"What reasons can he have a mother? He just wants Kath as his bed warmer?" But mother Marrie shot her glare to shut up.
Anna just lowered her mouth and started eating again.
Mother Marrie back to Kath and said, "I will talk with him, Kath. But I can't guarantee anything. If he doesn't agree then...."
"Aunt, you talking to him for me more than enough. I can't even ask for more." Kath's eyes were now moist. Someone was taking a step for her happiness, what else she needs?
"But Kath, if he doesn't agree, then what?" Everyone has to think for a second option also.
"Aunt, I will see him getting married in front of me. I will break my heart properly. I will resign from the organization and will start a new life with my broken heart. If this all happens, I believe there will be someone in this world who can also heal my broken heart. I won't be alone, Aunt." Kath wanted to be practical now.
Mother Marrie patted her head. "You are a strong girl. I hope you find your happiness, my child."
"I will aunt. But for now, I will break my heart fully." She wanted to witness Sean's marriage with her own eyes.
Anna was thinking if she was in her place, what would have she done? Let her love marry someone? She might have killed that guy! But there was a huge difference between Anna and Kath. Kath was older and mature but Anna was still young. Her thinking was still limited.
But no one knew what the future holds for all of them.
.....
Everyone finished their dinner. Kath offered to help Mother Marrie in washing dishes. Anna took this time as a chance to escape into her room with Goofy. She locked the door and called Sean.
"Hello?"
"You bastard!! Are you seeking death?!?!?! Whom are you marrying????" Anna can hear the other side sighing.
"I knew you will call me," Sean answered.
"If you knew this, then you also should know why I called you. You are such a bad person." Anna started to curse him. Of course, she will call him after knowing her favorite and close brother was marrying her enemy. For god's sake, he didn't love her!
"Before saying anything further, listen to my reason also," Sean said with a slightly sad tone.
"Okay, tell me." Anna didn't think much. She thought he will make useless excuses.
"Meet me near the lake."
