Chapter 29) Bitter TRUTH

"Well actually" .... ,, Maria had no idea from where to start . She was shocked and happy to see her brother standing healthy Infront of her
Samuel , Her brother looked at Chase with observing eyes , who was happily giggling and babbling in his own world
"My Son . . His name is Chase" .... ,, Maria said and her voice was low
Maria came to the Church , for Prayer because she was feeling restless from long time and need some mental peace and there She bumped with her Younger brother who was also shocked to see his sister after two years of long time
"He is near to celebrate his first birthday" ... ,, Her eyes were red and just stood infront of her brother who showed neutral expression to her
"I'm Sorry Sister" .... ,, Samuel said and his eyes were gloomy
"What do you mean Samuel ?" ... ,, Maria was confused by his sudden words and didn't Understood why he was apologing to her and that too suddenly without any reason
"Mom and Dad love you so much" ... ,, He spoke while looking directly at Chase
"Tell me clearly Samuel" ... ,, She shivered by the mentioned of her parents
"I won't narrate the past to you . It's so bitter but just know that there are more for you to know and please meet Mom and Dad atleast once . It's hard to see them in pain, Sister" .... ,, Samuel said and sadness were dripping down from his words
"Samuel?" ... ,, She took a step forward and he moved back from her
"Ask your Husband" ... ,, His eyes were hard and Maria was shocked
"What ?".... ,, His words took away what color was left in her body
"Yes . . And I'm apologizing to you for my mistake which I did Unknowingly" .... ,, Samuel said and Maria just stared at his retreating figure . Her Younger brother was now fully adult . He left her in messy brain .
Her husband . . Daniel Miller what did you do that after my parents now my brother is , even , hating you .... ,, She could feel blood evaporating from her body .
She realised it would be unnecessary to fight with him because she knew how her husband was . If he said something then she had to obey because without him She was nothing but the sad look she saw at the face of her brother were something else and she needed to know everything . .
She ordered the Driver to move and after an hours of looking outside of the window and familiar street . She finally arrived at her parents house but she didn't had any courage to move forward and meet her parents . The Bodyguards Opened the door of the car . She came outside with shaky legs and stared longingly at the house . Tears were falling deeply in her heart . Remembering the past and how it felt hard to think about it .
"Let's go back to the Castle" .... ,, She said and cried in the car and bolted Inside the Castle

At The MILLERs Castle:-
Maria entered into the Living room and found him on a conference call . His demeanor were too hard and cold but when he heard mumbling sounds . He roamed his eyes and soon landed on his beautiful wife and cute Son . His eyes automatically softened by their appearance .
Chase babbled "Da Da" forwarded his arms towards Danny . Danny stood up from his seat and took him in his arms and His small stubbles poke in to his chubby cheeks that made him to giggle loudly and Danny laughed with him
She was stunned at how quickly this man turned from a Demanding Alpha Male to an urban business and now a soft Hearted father who was playing with his son
"We need to talk, Dan" ... ,, Maria shook her head and thought this was not the right time to admire her husband .
Danny sat down on the couch with Chase and started drinking his coffe and simply rose his brows in manner her to continue whatever she wanted to say to him
"I met my brother, Samuel in the Church" .... ,, Her words made him to Choked on the coffee he was sipping a d in between the Cough he managed to say one word "What?"
"What did you do Dan? Now even My brother does not like you" ... ,, Her straight-forwardness always amused him but this time , no he wasn't liking her attitude and he knew how to manage her anger
"Carlos "... ,, Danny called him and he came immediately and stood infront of his Master
"Yes ! Master" .... ,, He said and felt the thickness of tension which was filling the room
"Take Chasey with you" .... ,, He handed over the Chase to Carlos who happily went into his arms . Carlos took him and left them alone in the living room for clearing their heart and mind
"What were you saying ?" ... ,, Danny asked and never wanted to let her know about the past incidents
She didn't reply to him and his anger rose. "Fire" ... ,, he said loudly and she looked at him with fear and hammering heart
She knew how Danny didn't like her family anywhere near her but they were her family and something was there , not visible to her and she needed to know
"Your Parents don't like me and if your brother isn't liking me so what should I do or you want me to go plead them to like me, .... ,, Harshness and only harshness were showing from his personality .
She shook her head negatively and knew it was waste to talk to him but his eyes were intense and seething in anger
"Oh okay then" ... ,, She just lowered her head and Started counting numbers in her head just to avoid him and his Demonic eyes which were making her nervous .
"Out of sight meant out of mind" ... ,, She was chanting this spell in her mind but she was nervous and she was angry also and the worst of all that He was the prime reason of her anger and Nervousness
Few minutes later , They were sitting in the living room , opposite to each other . The only barrier between them was their silence and Intense eyes . There were so many things she wanted to clear with him and He was mentally praying for her to forgot about her family
They were alone and there was a pin drop silence . This silence was making her all more nervous and disturbing her system . She finally Decided to break the ice though she wasn't really sure if a conversation was a good idea especially at this time .
She cleared her throat and spoke "I want to meet my Parents"
