A Slave To My Vengeful Lover

Chapter 214 - Uncle Rubeus



Marks POV:

When Anna asked me about who might be behind all the attacks...

I tried to explain to her, and I also told the fact about the fifth suspect...

Because If I didn't tell her about the 5th suspect, she might take it in the wrong way...

So I explained her clearly, and she understands what I mean and didn't misappropriate me, particularly when I told about her father...

When she lay her head on my shoulder, I feel relieved that she is ok with my discussion…

And at any cost, I don't want to disturb her sleep. So, I drive smoothly and slowly to reach home.

But when I am unbuckling her seat belt, she crushed her eyes and lips a bit...

I understand that she is acting her sleep, even though she is acting I don't want to disturb her and carried her in bridal style and teased her in the middle...

When I am carrying her in the hallway, a well-known voice interrupted me, and I looked at him...

It's my uncle Rubeus...

I am happy when I first looked at him...

It's been a very long time to look at him...

But the moment I realized that he is not my older, caring uncle...

I got angry, and I immediately lead to Anna's room to drop her, and when Anna is trying to ask me about him I didn't answer to her and skip the topic and left her room and lead to my room...

I immediately fall on my bed with mixed emotions that I feel about my uncle...

More than uncle he is a very dearest friend to me in my life and I used to share everything to him from my childhood...

But suddenly, he changed...

I don't know what exactly the reason is...

But as far as I know, he is one of our business partners, and he sells his shares suddenly and starts his new business just a few months before our parents died...

And he came to my parent's rituals like a formal relative as her own sister i.e, my mother died...

He didn't react much and just attend the rituals and left us on the same day...

Ria and I really take a hard time to get over from our parent's tragedy...

We need some guidance and support, particularly from my beloved uncle...

But he didn't come to us after the rituals and didn't care how we are doing...

I requested him to come to my home to take care of Ria and me...

But he rejected, and after a few days, he didn't attend my calls too...

I didn't tell about my uncle's ignorance to Ria because she feels more depressed...

Later I try to cope up my mind that he is busy in his life and I should not interrupt me...

And he really didn't visit again in these two years after my parent's death...

I tried to digest the situation that he is not there to help me in my hard times, and with all my efforts, I established my dad's business kingdom again and make it live with huge profits…

He didn't compliment me...

He didn't console me...

He didn't encourage me...

He didn't there in my hard times...

And most importantly, he ignored me...

But why he came all of a sudden and wished me casually as nothing happened...

Maybe he got the news about Ria...

So he may come to look at me...

Actually, I didn't inform to him about Ria's death...

He might get to know through his sources.

But it's no use now if he really cares on us he would have come to us immediately after my parent's death..

But now it's no use...

The moment I looked at him, I wish I should hold his collar and make him to get out of my house, but the memories and respect towards him stop me from doing such things...

If I stay quiet with him, he will leave me again like before, but I am sure this time he leaves me permanently...

And it's better to keep away to him, or else I may again fall for his fake emotions towards me...

But realizing that his love towards me is just fake, especially the memories with him during my childhood, makes my eyes wet...

I should stay strong this time…

I came out of my thoughts and fresh up and changed my clothes and lead to Anna's room to check her...

She may skip her dinner for the tiredness of the journey...

But I didn't find her in her room, maybe she went for dinner...

I lead to the dining hall to check on her, when I am getting down the steps, I looked at Anna and my uncle at the dining table...

Both of them sit opposite to each other and Anna's face looks worried...

I silently went to them and sat beside next to Anna and ignored my uncle's glare...

Mark: "When did you come for dinner?"

Anna: "Just before your arrival..."

(she said quietly and still looking into her plate...

Something happened...

Why she is dull..?)

Mark: "Everything ok?"

(She nods her head as Yes...

But why she looks worried and dull?)

Mark: "Did anyone hurt you..?"

(I asked her directly and loudly that my uncle should listen to me because he may lose his words on Anna, and he also looked at us how close I am with her, but Anna responded by striking her head as no.)

Mark: "Why you look dull, Anna?"

Anna: "I am tired, Mark...

I will be ok if I take some rest..."

(And she continued to take her food without looking at me...)

Uncle: "You can have your food, my son, she will be ok by tomorrow..."

(The moment I listened to him, I can't control my anger on him...

I threw my plate away and left the dining table and went to my room...)
