Chapter 93: Chapter 93 Few But True

Kelly’s POV

The anonymous message got me thinking hard about the sender of the message. Even before all this mess started, there was only one person who really helped me during the critical moments in my life. She made me realize what was wrong. She silently cared. She secretly helped. I can only think of one person who would send me such a message.

While unpacking, I ordered some food for lunch. I waited for only 15 minutes before someone rang the doorbell. The man, wearing a delivery uniform and carrying the food I ordered, shocked me. I didn’t know I’d see him again and I can see that he’s also shocked after recognizing me.

“M-Miss Kelly...”

I looked outside to check if someone saw him. When I saw no one, I grabbed his arm and immediately locked the door behind him.

“Luke!”

He blinked as he stared at my face.

“Mommy, hungry!” Snow came running to me hugging her doll.

Luke turned to her and his eyes widened in shock.

“Is this the food I ordered?” I asked, pointing at the paper bag he’s carrying.

“Y-Yes, miss.”

I nodded and grabbed the paper bag from him. “Wait here, I need to talk to you.”

I carried Snow and brought her to the kitchen. I prepared her lunch and cupped her cheeks.

“Eat here, baby. I’ll just pay for our food, okay?”

When I went back to the living area, Luke was roaming his eyes around. When our eyes met, he immediately looked down.

“You’re not working for the Andersons anymore?” I asked and sat on the couch.

He nodded and sat across from me. “I resigned four years ago, miss.”

“Are you still in contact with them?”

He shook his head, still not looking at my face. “No, miss.”

I took a deep sigh and rested my back on the couch. “I’m hiding behind a fake identity, Luke. If you’re still on my side, you won’t tell anyone you saw here.”

He lifted his face and finally looked into my eyes. “I swore my loyalty to you a long time ago, Miss Kelly. Even if someone threatens me with a knife against my neck, I would never betray you.”

I smiled and slowly nodded. “Thank you, Luke.”

He bowed his head and slowly, but simply turned to the kitchen where I brought Snow. He’s curious. He must’ve remembered the time I asked him to drive me to the hospital.

I took a deep sigh. “She’s my daughter.”

He looked at me with parted lips. “She’s...”

I nodded. “Pierce’s daughter.”

He cleared his throat and nodded. “She...looks exactly like you, miss Kelly.”

Luke was lying on the carpet and Snow was sitting on his stomach. She was laughing so hard as Luke kept moving his stomach like a wave.

Snow is a bubbly girl who would play with everyone I introduced to her as a friend. She’s easy to talk to. She’s fun to be with and definitely a smart kid. Honestly, her attitude mirrors her dad’s. Pierce looked like a cold person at first impression, but when you get to know him, you’d see how soft he is inside. That’s exactly what Snow is.

“Captain Yuki, there’s a big wave coming. What should we do?”

I pressed my lips together, stopping my laugh after I heard Luke say those words. I’m so used to seeing him so serious. So looking at him now, it looks awkward.

My phone vibrated continuously, indicating an incoming call. When I looked at the screen, I immediately went to the kitchen and answered the call. “Hello?” ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

[Miss Monroe, the papers you asked for are ready. I will email it to you right away but I need to confirm something.]

I chewed my bottom lip and nodded. “Yes, attorney. What is it?”

[You already know the current situation of your father’s assets, right? I’m curious about what you’re planning to do. To think that you disappeared without a trace and now you’re back, I’m worried rage is taking the best of you. Although this is the right thing to do, I can’t help but to worry. I’ve been your father’s lawyer and I treat you like my own daughter. I don’t want you to end up like your father.]

I pressed my palms on the kitchen counter and looked down. Taking a deep sigh, I slowly lifted my face again with my eyes sharp and cold.

“I’m enraged, but I know what I’m doing, attorney. It’s time for me to take everything back. I don’t care if dad’s assets have dropped to cents. All I want is to make them taste their own medicine.”

I heard him sigh. There was relief in it. [Okay. I’ll email the documents to you. Just please, Kelly, win this battle. I kept my mouth shut for a long time, but my conscience couldn’t take it anymore. I don’t care what you would do to your stepmother and stepbrother. All I want is justice for a dear friend of mine.]

I looked at Luke and Snow still playing in the living area after I ended the call.

A few years ago, I thought I was alone. I thought after losing Pierce, I’m all alone. But I was wrong. There are people who are still on my side. They’re only a few but I know they are true.
