Chapter 130 - Revenge 129: Possible Fiance (1/2)
[At the Coleman Residence]
”Mary, where are the kids?” Marcus Coleman asked. It has been an hour since the exact time Anna and Aaron usually come home but no matter how much he waited the kids are still not home.
”Have you forgotten?” Mary said as she sat down next to her father in law. ”Aaron has basketball practice today.”
After hearing that, Marcus suddenly remembered that Aaron did tell him about his basketball practice and going to be home late. ”Ah, I remember. Very understandable but where is Anna? She doesn't have any after-school activities doesn't she?” Marcus wondered why would Anna not be here; for Aaron's case, Aaron has an excuse why he couldn't be home right now, but Anna? What kind of excuse does she have?
”As far as I know she does not have any after-school activities. Maybe she's waiting for her brother.” Mary said. ”It's nice to see that the twins are closer now.” Ever since the day of Marcus' birthday the twins were closer than ever. There was no line between them like in the past; Mary is happy that her twins are closer now.
In the past whenever she sees her twins together she always noticed that there is an invisible line between them, but now it's different. She's happy about that; Mary would not know what to do if her twins continue that act of theirs until they grow up, it would be really hard for her to get them close.
Marcus did not hear the last sentence Mary uttered, he only heard the first ones before that so he said, ”If Anna doesn't have any after-school activities then she's going to have a good scolding from me for not coming home early. She knows that we have a visitor today and I want at least one of the twins to greet our visitor.” Marcus said in a disappointed tone. He has been looking forward to this day for a long time now; to make the twins and his visitor to know each other.
Mary shrugged and asked, ”Who is our visitor anyway?” Her father in law has been talking about this certain visitor for quite a while now but she has no idea who is this visitor is. Seeing how excited Marcus is, this only made Mary curious who that visitor is.
”A possible fiance for our only princess.” Mary was sipping her tea as she listened to Marcus but hearing those words from him Mary was coughing really hard. She looked at him full of shock written on her face.

”So, why are you waiting for me?” Aaron asked his sister who is wiping his sweat around on his neck and on the forehead. The practice game was only fours hours but he is betting that his sister was really bored waiting for him.
”Because I don't really feel like meeting the person grandpa wants us to meet, so I waited for you,” Anna said truthfully. Ever since she woke up this morning she has been feeling anger rising up inside her.
In her past life, this is the same day where her nightmare started; since the moment she met him she taught that her days were the sweetest ones but when that dreadful day came she has come into a realization that it was all just an illusion.
