The Contract Wife of the Cruel Master
Chapter 35
Anna spilled all her tears on Lyssa, her mother-in-law. After the incident while on the beach, Anna decides to go to see Lyssa without Leon's knowledge, let Leon look for her because he doesn't care about her at all.
“Anna doesn't know Leon is Al, Ma.” Anna hugged Lyssa tightly.
Lyssa warmly stroked Anna's back, seeing Anna's sadness made her feel guilty about her condition. Actually Lyssa already knows about Leon and Anna's past, Lyssa deliberately hid it for some reason. Lyssa doesn't want Anna to recall her traumatic past, but the syndrome is deadly enough to recur in Anna.
“Sorry Mama darling. Actually Mama already know about your past, Mama deliberately hid everything for your good. Mama has a strong reason, only in this way do they not suspect you.” Lyssa took off Anna's embrace slowly.
Her blue, teary eyes stared plainly at Lyssa's eyes. Anna did not expect that her mother-in-law was hiding the secret she had been waiting for, if she knew like that maybe Anna would reject their arranged marriage plan from the beginning.
“Why are they so cruel Ma? They had the heart to seize Anna's happiness, what was the reason they had to slaughter the entire Anna family? Do they have a grudge against Papa?” anna's heart had to be made sick given the harsh reality for her. Again because of him, again because of him his happiness must be hampered as well.
“You're ready to listen to all the explanations, dear Mama? Are you also ready to hear the reason why Leon didn't come back to you?”
“I'm ready! I want to know everything until not a single word makes me doubt.”
Lyssa let out a rude sigh, Anna Sangar's attitude was similar to her mother's, she was so stubborn and unafraid of threats. “The father of your friend was obsessed with your mother before your mother married your Father.”
Anna looked at Lyssa in surprise, her expression as if she was so shocked by this new reality. “Lio?”
“So, Mara was also a victim of that man?” ask Anna.
“Not just a victim but a target in every bait he uses. The man was a jerk more than anyone, with no morals he peeked at your mother while bathing in the office, even he made a photo of your mother as the object of his lust. That's when Rexton's obesei grew up when he saw your mother marry Alden, your father. Their marriage almost failed because of a fire at the Altar, it was the man.”
“The blue triangle project went well and almost succeeded. Rexton and his allies tried to sabotage the project by bribing some workers there, but it did not work. Rexton is further frustrated when she realizes that your mother Shyna is pregnant with her first child-”
“First child? So, I have a brother?” asked Anna curiously.
“Yes, you have a brother but he's already died from the encouragement of Rexton. Rexton accidentally pushes Shyna until she miscarries, which is when Alden begins to tighten Shyna's guard until she recovers. The breakout for the blue triangle is getting harder, Alden tightened guard after finding out there was someone who betrayed his team, Rexton. Alden also learns of Rexton's decay regarding Shyna, secretly Alden reports Rexton to the police for his sexual acts.”
“Before the detonation, your mother Shyna was held captive for two days in her arsenal. He was tortured to avenge his frustration, and at that very moment your father came to your mother's rescue by massacring Rexton's entire guard. Rexton intends to have Shyna and will create a fake divorce letter to fool Alden, knowing Alden's imminent plan to detonate it lets Shyna go take you to Italy with Hamara. Alden would sacrifice himself by replacing your mother Shyna, but that intention was not accomplished, Alden was arrested by police on charges of murdering his wife Rexton Ashala-”
Anna raised one eyebrow. “Wife?”
“She bought Ashala from the black market, then she made a wife to make her pregnant because she needed offspring. Ashala is tortured to launch her plan to trap Alden, until Rexton kills Ashala and then disposes of her in the forest where Shyna is held. The fingerprints found in Ashala's body were on Alden, so the police concluded that Alden was the perpetrator of the murder, even Alden was accused of having arrested Ashala and tortured him because the evidence shows some bruises and traces of lashes on Ashala.”
“So, she's Lio's mother?”
