Chapter Seven: Find Her

As Ashley entered the expensive apartment that Arthur gave her, she angrily threw her handbag on the sofa and started screaming.

"Why is it not me? Why does another girl keep coming between us? First Anastasia now that bitch again? Why can't Arthur see me?

Why does he keep getting attracted to another girl instead of loving me? I will never let him be with another girl. No matter what, I have to get that bitch off the way," Ashley said angrily, gritting her teeth.

She took out her phone from her bag and called her Father. Her Father answered the phone and said, "I thought you were busy with Arthur right now, that's why I didn't call you. I never thought Arthur would be so infatuated with you that he would wait at the airport to receive you. He must be bewitched. You got him totally. I am so proud of you my dear"

Hearing her Father's words, Ashley clenched her fists in anger and said, "Dad, a bitch is trying to come between me and Arthur. She's using her body to get Arthur's attention like a whore. Either way, that bitch has to be removed from the street, or she will remove me from Arthur's life. At first sight, she cast such a black spell on Arthur that he ordered his detectives to find out that girl's identity. I want you to find out the identity of that girl for me before Arthur finds out. I want to remove that bitch from the world before Arthur reaches her. Dad, you must do this," Ashley said in a desperate voice.

"Doesn't that girl know you? How dare she reach out to your man? Everyone knows Arthur George is your man. She must have forgotten her place. Don't worry, I will find her before he finds her and give you all her information," Hunter assured his daughter.

"Dad, hurry up, I don't have much time. For five years, I have been waiting for a golden opportunity to use it to become Mrs. George. I will not let that bitch take this opportunity from me." Ashley's body started shaking in nervousness.

"Don't worry about it anymore. That girl will never be able to take your man away from you. She accidentally touched the wrong person and she will have to suffer severe punishment for touching the wrong person. I will send people to find her right now," Hunter said and Ashley hung up the call.

"Whomever you are, you made a terrible mistake. You should not come in my way. You mess with the wrong person" Ashley muttered in anger.

At William Mansion

When Anastasia came down after resting for 2 hours, she saw Sara talking to a girl downstairs. Seeing Anastasia coming down, Sara looked at her and said, "Miss William, this is Veera. She came here on Mr. William's orders. She worked here 20 years ago."

Hearing Sara's words, Anastasia looked at Veera and said, "Thank you for coming here."

Veera said with a smiling face, "20 years ago, I worked here as a cook for the William family. I never thought that I would be back here after twenty years. When Mr. William told me about your coming here, I couldn't believe it at first. As soon as he said that, we set off to come here. My husband used to work here as a security guard, he also came with me and is standing outside to guard the house.

Two more people who used to work here as security guards also came and the gardener came with them. As soon as they heard Mr. William's order, everyone returned to work. Hearing Veera's words, Anastasia was very surprised and said, "You must have been busy with other work, but after hearing my Grandfather's order, you left everything and came here. I am very grateful for that."

"We weren't busy with other work. We didn't work for others in those twenty years. We were waiting for your Grandfather's order for 20 years. Your Grandfather left here 20 years ago. He has been paying our salaries for these 20 years. For these twenty years, we have not worked for anyone else. We were just waiting for your grandfather to come here so that we could serve him again.

You have fulfilled our dream by coming here. I have prepared dinner for you. I don't know what kind of food you like to eat. If you give me the list of food, then I will prepare the food as per your choice from tomorrow."

Hearing Veera's words, Anastasia smiled a little and said, "Thank you, of course. I will give you the list, and I will also help you with cooking. My son and daughter like to eat food from my hand, so I want to prepare food for them."

"For a child, the best food is the cooking of his mother's hands. My children also like my cooking the most. Where are your sons and daughters? I am restless to see them?" Veera asked her.

"They are very tired after the long journey. They are still sleeping. I thought I would cook dinner and then wake them up. Since they are very tired after the long journey, I wanted to cook their favorite food. If you don't mind, we will eat the food you have prepared. But I want to cook for my children. I hope you don't mind."

Hearing Anastasia's innocent voice and caring side for her children Veera started laughing. "What is there to mind here? A Mother wants to cook for her child. There is nothing wrong with this. Why should I be upset? After 20 years, I have returned to my own responsibilities. I could not control myself and started cooking. You wanted to eat that cooking. That is a lot for me." Anastasia smiled at her words and was happy in her heart because she understood that Veera was a very sincere and good girl.

After talking to Veera, Anastasia entered the kitchen and prepared the food for the children as they liked.

After some time, Anastasia was feeding Alina, as she was sitting on her Mother's lap. Ethan and Evan were sitting on the chairs next to her and eating. "I want to tell you something. When she said this, Ethan and Evan looked at their Mother.

"What is it, Mommy?" Evan asked while Ethan wiped his mouth and looked at his Mother. Ethan is a clean freak, yet he never hesitates to touch mud for his sister.

"Since I am not sure how long we have to stay here. I thought it would be a good idea to enroll you both in a school here. What is your opinion on this? If you want to enroll in school. I will enroll you in school. And if you don't want to and enjoy those days, then I won't force you," Anastasia said at the dining table.

"Good idea, Mommy. We were also thinking something like that. There is a nursery five minutes from here, and we want to enroll there," Ethan said.

"Nursery! Are you sure you want to enroll in nursery? Considering your talent, the teachers at your previous school suggested you both could skip nursery and you also said that you don't want to study in nursery because children in nursery are noisy. You also said that you don't like being around small children in a nursery. They are very noisy," Anastasia said in a surprised voice.

"Actually, we will be staying here for a few days, so I thought we should see what the nursery is like. And Mommy, you told us that we should start our studies from nursery school. So we thought that we would study in nursery as long as we are here," Evan said.

Hearing this, Anastasia smiled softly and said, "Okay, then I will get you admitted to that nursery as you both wish. We will go there tomorrow."

Ethan and Evan smiled softly upon hearing Anastasia's words. "Mommy, won't I be admitted to school with my brothers?" Alina said in an innocent voice.

Hearing Alina's words, Anastasia held back tears and bit her tongue. She also wanted her daughter to go to school like other children, but because she was paralyzed, other children always teased Alina and made many bad comments about her.

Ethan and Evan often got into fights with other children about this. Ethan and Evan once punched a child in a fight and broke his tooth.

After this incident, the school's headmaster suggested that Alina be enrolled in a special school for children with disabilities, which had many children like Alina. After hearing this, Anastasia took them out of that school and enrolled them in another school.

When Anastasia didn't answer, Alina looked at Ethan and Evan and asked, "Aren't you going to take me to school with you, brother? I will study hard and not disturb you." Hearing Alina's words, Anastasia's eyes filled with tears. Looking at her daughter's innocent face, her hatred for Arthur increased even more. If Arthur had not done that thing that day, her little child would not have had to endure so much pain and she could now live a normal life like any other child.

Anastasia was about to say no to her, suppressing her pain, but before that, Ethan said, "Of course. You will go to school with us and we will study together. We will never leave our princess behind"

Hearing Ethan's words, Alina's eyes sparkled with happiness. Her heart was filled with happiness and she said, "Thank you, brother. Mom, I have finished eating. I want to play doll house now."

Hearing Alina's words, Sara picked Alina up and said, "Then we will play doll house now. Ma'am, I finished eating and I am going to play doll house with Alina." Anastasia nodded and Sara took Alina and left from there.

This time, Anastasia could not hold back her tears, a lonely tear rolled down her cheek. She looked at Ethan and said, "Why did you give her false hope, dear? You know what will happen if you take her to school with you? After hearing the taunts of other children, Alina may go into depression again, which can be very harmful to her health. The doctor has already told us not to let her go into those situations.

We can't take such a big risk, dear. I can't give permission for Alina to go to school with you under any circumstances. Her health is our top priority now"

Hearing her Mother's words, Ethan said, "No one can make bad comments and taunts on her as long as we stand with her. We will look into this matter. If we get admitted to school and you join the company, Alina will be left alone at home, which can be even more harmful for her. We can not let her stay alone, Mom. If we did, then she would think that because of her health, we didn't take her. She will take this matter to heart, and it could make her depressed.

So we want to take Alina to school with us. I admit that the teachers at that past school were bad, still, it would not be right to even think in advance that the teachers at this new school would be bad. If we go to school tomorrow and see that everything is fine, then we will get admitted there. We can discuss Alina's matter with the teachers in advance. If they don't object, then we will take Alina to school, and if they object, then we will not get admitted to this school," Ethan said directly, leaving no place for argument.

"Evan is right, Mommy. Why are you so worried? We will be with our princess. No harm can touch her" Evan spoke up seriously.

Hearing Ethan's words, she understood that now, no matter what she wanted to say, Ethan and Evan would not listen to her. Anastasia felt very bad to accept this face, but it was true that Ethan and Evan's character and way of speaking were exactly like Arthur's.

They were also bad-tempered and stubborn like Arthur. "Okay, then I will discuss Alina's matter with the teachers at the school first. If they don't object, then I will give Alina permission to go to school with you, and if the teacher objects, you will not be able to say anything else about it," Anastasia said to them.

"Okay. If the teachers object, we won't talk about this anymore," Evan said. Hearing Evan's words, Anastasia smiled softly and started eating. Ethan and Evan looked at each other and smiled.
