CHAPTER THIRTY TWO~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Ryan, be good. Open your mouth." Georgina held the warm glass of milk to him but he made no move to accept it. He kept staring at her wide-eyed, Georgina had the thought if she had turned into an alien. Trying to feed him was the last thing to do, but she supposed she could do this much to earn Tremont's gratitude. "Not hungwy...I wa--nt Miss Aw--ra!" His childish words spread an ugly frown across Georgina's features. She didn't need to hear the name of that witch this morning. "I'm done arguing with you! Have your milk now, or I might have to hit you! " She spoke in a firm tone that seemed to successfully frighten the child. Just as Ryan took the glass from her, his hand slipped and the cup fell to the ground, spilling milk, half of it splashed against Georgina's feet and some parts of her dress."What did you do! Your stupid self can't even hold a glass properly! " She hissed in a venomous m

CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aurora struggled to keep up with his furious strides. "Where are you taking me?" She managed to ask against the heavy beat of her heart, he kept his expression unreadable and she suddenly had the thought if he was still extremely upset with her because he had seen his mother with her. "I was locked inside, she was the one who searched for me." She tried to explain. When she got no response, she continued in a soft whisper. "I know that you don't trust me but I'm not that kind of a person to take advantage of her because of her current state." Aurora still remembered the pain-staking look on Tremont's face moments ago when Linnet had mistaken him for her late husband. She thought how he must be suffering inside and even though he was currently holding her in death's grip, her heart sympathized with him. Even though she didn't know how the mother and son related in the past but she knew how painf

CHAPTER THIRTY-SIX~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Aurora had been walking in a dazed state after Tremont had ordered her to return to the room when she heard a noise. She rushed towards the direction of the sound but was brought up short by the horrific sight. It was Linnet! A cry of alarm left her mouth as she ran towards the woman who was lying in a pool of blood. "Please wake up!" She tapped Linnet's chin then screamed in a louder voice. "Help! Somebody! Help!"Linnet was so still in her arms that Aurora's heart pounded with fright. The blood was too much! Aurora was grateful when she heard footsteps hurrying down the staircase, she looked upward to see Georgina who wore a look of fright. "Call 911! Hurry please!" Aurora yelled at the top of her lungs while holding an unconscious Linnet tightly. Georgina marched towards her in furious strides and shoved her so hard th

CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Tremont pushed aside the documents, breathing out his frustration. It had been a week already, but he still found it difficult to concentrate on anything. It was her. Aurora, who kept haunting his mind. He could still remember the hopelessness in her eyes as she uttered those last words. ' You never listen to me simply because you already hated me, you think that I'm a very horrible person, I can't say if I'm a good person, but I've never had any bad intention towards you or your family!' She even troubled his dream, he found it hard to sleep at night, he should know better than to believe a gold-digger like her, but that didn't make him feel any better.He drank a sip of his tea only to spit out the soured taste, he was going to be sick. The doctors still weren't clear on his mother's condition, they had advised him to prepare himself for the worst. Even if his mother somehow manage

CHAPTER FORTY~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Tremont stepped out of the doctor's office, his face schooled in a hard mask. It would only require a glance for the people around to tell that something was amiss. "Tremont, what's wrong? What did the doctor say, is she going to get better soon?" Georgina spoke softly, as opposed to the panic and resentment in her heart. She couldn't believe that the old witch had survived the fall! She thought that she had successfully gotten rid of her for good. For the past few days, she had lacked the ability to sleep or think about anything, she wondered if Linnet would miraculously get better and would expose the truth to Tremont. Tremont inhaled sharply, the doctor's words from a few minutes ago echoing in his mind. "Tremont, please speak to me, I'm getting worried." She urged. Tremont stared from her to John and then to Ryan. He decided to speak, concluding that his son would be too young to understand the s
