Semua Bab THE ANDERSON'S LOST SISTER : Bab 51 - Bab 60

Aaron stood still for several long seconds after Tiffani’s last words. He did not know where he was going to start explaining from because she had already cooked a story in her head that was going to look difficult to erase.The heavy silence inside the room felt unbearable, and yet they decided not to talk to each other.This wasn't because they did not want to talk but it was because the tension was gradually going to something else that he could not understand. Rain continued pouring heavily outside while thunder echoed across the night sky.The worst part of it is that Aaron did not even expect that he was going to see tears in her eyes. It was unlike her and it was completely strange to him.“Could you please stop crying before someone else walks in on us,” he muttered and his voice was gradually rising to an extent that he didn't even want but somehow, he was finding himself to control it. Tiffani wiped her tears angrily with the back of her hand and turned away from him compl

Marylin stood near the window of the large office, just staring at it and it was raining heavily outside. There was a heavy lightning flashing across the sky but it wasn't even late. Her expression was cold and serious, but deep inside, her emotions were in complete chaos.She waited until everyone was completely gone because she didn't want anyone to see her talking to someone in the pack.Before her brother, Kelvin left the company, he saw Marilyn focusing on her laptop but he didn't know what she was up to.Marilyn noticed her brother coming towards her and without any further delay, she quickly closed the laptop.“What are you doing now?” He asked. “Nothing at all… I was just checking some documents,” Marilyn replied immediately. But Kelvin was eager and curious to check it himself but she didn't just allow him to check anything and that was how everything died. “I will be on my way home and don't forget to tell me when you leave,” Kelvin muttered and stood up immediately to l

Her face became serious again. She was probably thinking if it was going to be the right thing to talk, or maybe it was better that she let it be because she doesn't even know how to start talking.After a short while, she decided to say something but her voice was a bit low and calm.“We’ve been investigating small pieces one by one,” she explained. “But that’s no longer enough.”Greg frowned slightly. What was she talking about? Was there something else that they had all been involved in and no one cared to talk to her about it? He didn't really understand what she was talking about, especially with the look on her eyes like she was talking out of a place of pain and emotion neglecting the fact that they have to face reality.“What are you saying?” he asked again, trying to be sure if he wasn't the one who probably heard something else.Marylin placed the folders down heavily. “I want everything investigated and you can send it to me, or Mr. Seers, because I am not going to start e

Aaron stared at her for a moment but he didn't say anything. She just folded her arms across each other.The look on her face told him she wasn’t asking.She was demanding and it's going to make everything a little bit worse than it should be that morning.Finally, he sighed. “You really don’t know how to let things go.”“Neither do you.”Aaron shook his head. Without another word, he took the phone and unlocked it before handing it back.“There… do whatever you want with it.” He muttered.Tiffani immediately began looking through the notification. Her eyes scanned the but it didn't take long before her expression changed.“Oh.” she gasped, staring at him.Aaron watched her carefully. “What?”“This isn’t what I expected,” she replied immediately. Aaron raised an eyebrow although he didn't trust anything that was coming from her. “What exactly were you expecting?”Tiffani ignored him. She continued reading.The invitation was for a business gala. A very large one by the looks of it.S

Marilyn sat at the head of the long conference table. The room felt colder than usual with the terrible AC that maintained the temperature of the room. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the city lights glowed against the dark evening sky. Inside, however, the atmosphere was tense.Her two brothers sat across from her. The others were supposed to join but they had a different meeting to attend. The two brothers had rushed over as soon as she called and said there was something important they needed to discuss.At first, they thought she had finally found the people hiding inside the company.Instead, they were about to hear something that would leave them shocked.Marilyn folded her hands together on the table. “I’ve made a decision.”Her brother, Kelvin, leaned back in his chair. “What kind of decision?”Marilyn took a deep breath. “I’m shutting down company operations but it’s only for a period of time.”For a moment, they simply stared at her. As if they had heard something im
