Chapter 255 - Revenge 256: Try And Try Until You Do (1/2)
”What? Mary, is there something wrong with your brain? You should be glad that she did not saw us or else we're busted!” Layla said in an exaggerated tone. She would rather not be caught by Anna because she knows that Anna will most likely not tell Kyle.
”You're right, but I trained my daughter to be able to notice suspicious people.”
When Layla heard that, she looks at Mary as if Mary is a weird alien. ”Mary, are you implying that we are suspicious people?” From Layla's understanding, Mary is somehow implying that they are being suspicious. She doesn't like it when she is being called suspicious because she is not being suspicious, she is only observing how her son makes his move towards a girl.
Is it wrong of her to do that?
”I'm not saying that we're one of those suspicious people, but still...” Mary was not able to finish her words since she does not know how to verbally say what she is thinking.
As the one who taught her daughter most of the things that are needed to survive in the underworld, she wanted her daughter to at least be more observant of her surroundings.
Observe if there is a person who has been keeping an eye on you for a long time, those are the things she has been telling her daughter.
”Mary, you are expecting too much from your young daughter.” Claire started. ”You are an expert at hiding, blending with others. From what I see, your daughter had just started. It would be very impossible for her to notice her expert mother spying on her.”
Sometimes, Claire can't understand why Mary acts like her husband. Although they are clearly not blood-related, they are in total sync if they set their minds to it. The only reason she could come up with is that Mary and her husband had been together for a long time, and it understandable if they are alike.
”Stop with this! We need to follow them, Mary!” Layla asked as she pulls Mary by her side. Before they could take another step, Layla turns around and say, ”Auntie, it is so nice to see you again, but we have to go now. Next time, I will visit you again.”
Not giving Mary a chance to say her words towards Claire, Layla pulled her out and went on their way to follow Kyle and Anna.
~~~
After minutes of driving, Kyle and Anna finally arrived at their destination, the Coleman mansion.
They are currently in front of the gates, and Anna was about to get off when Kyle held her hand, stopping her from getting off his car.
With a confused look on her face, Anna faces Kyle. ”Is there something else?” Before wanting to get off the car, Anna already bid her thanks to Kyle and she thinks that there is nothing else for her to say and do.
Kyle stayed silent, thinking that if he should say what he wanted to say for a long time now. He is tired of waiting. He had done what he needs to get Marcus Coleman's permission. Isn't time for him to make his move?
Like what his sister said to him not too long ago: if he waits longer than what is needed, Anna will be taken away from someone. If he does not want that to happen, he has to make his move
As he is holding Anna's hand tightly, Kyle looks at her eyes with clear sincerity. ”Anna.” He called out her name.
