Love and The Theater Of Revenge
Chapter 9

I frowned in confusion as I continued to watch Mom open a small box in her hand.

"Mother and Davina couldn't have stayed here, your father was deceived and now he's gone... It's impossible for Davina to fight the cunning Marvin to take the company they took forcibly"

"I mean Mom?" in my heart I wondered what I wanted to say.

"Here" Mother put some photos on the table and a necklace with a purple pendant.

"Actually...

Mom suddenly hung up her words, looking hesitant to continue.

"Before I apologize to you, this might hurt you"

Hearing that certainly makes me more confused and wondering.

"Let's just say ma'am, Vania's ready" I assured her.

"Actually, your real mother died 25 years ago"

Damn....

My body is sculpting, "mom I mean? L'm... I'm not Mom's real daughter?!"

"Vania Bu's Wadab"

"I'm sorry Vania's mother and father couldn't tell you from the beginning... Actually we intend to hide this until we are both gone, but I think it's wrong" he said with a tearful description.

I didn't even realize my tears had fallen from earlier, my heart was denying everything he had just said.

My hand slowly grabbed the photo, a picture of a woman holding a baby with a very happy expression.

"Now that you're married and have a family of your own, you don't have to worry about Mom and Davina.. We're moving to Canada and living with your grandmother"

"But it's not the marriage that Mom imagined" I said in my heart without being able to pronounce it.

"Mom would like to tell you Vania, never bring up the matter of your accident or about your real mother, try to be indifferent to the surroundings and live quietly with your husband"

"Mother please remember that" she said again, clasping my hands tightly.

I could only nod, and he took me into his warm embrace, the hug he had been giving me for the past 25 years.

"This house will be sold to pay off your father's debt at the Bank, if one day you want to see Mom and Davina, you can go to Grandma's house, Mom will always be there"

"Can I come with you" I cried in a loud voice from crying.

"No dear, you already have your own household and it's your responsibility"

Almost 26 years, this woman has never raised her voice at all to me, a woman who is so meek and sometimes firm if I am wrong.

"Thank you very much Ma'am, for raising me without discriminating between me and Davina"

He hugged me tighter and tighter with tears flowing.

...****************...

I had just entered, Mother-in-law was already standing near the stairs waiting for my arrival.

"It's late at night like you just got home? go clean up and prepare food for Vino" he said, leaving without listening to my answer.

"You don't want to look for trouble here, Vania, just hold it and follow what she says, after all it'll be over after two years"

"......"

"Actually I'm very bad at this, I hope you like it" I murmured

Vania serves a plate of fried rice on the dining table, along with cold water.

While playing the phone, he waited for the man to come home.

"Curtain, family? I don't even have her number"

While talking to himself, suddenly the sound of a car.

Right, he's coming.

"You waiting for me?"

"Who?"

"Who else are you?"

"Ah, I'm just following your mother's orders"

"You made it?"

"Have you eaten?"

"I've eaten after work, but I'll appreciate your efforts" he said.

"You drinking?"

"A little" he said while scooping the food that was still quite warm.

Uhukkk...

"It's food or salt, why it's so salty"

"Well, right... What I said, I can't cook so I won't be offended by what he said this time" I said in my heart.

"Drink first" I said, giving her a glass of water.

But somehow, I smell a familiar scent... The smell of women's perfume.

"You're from the bar?"

"It's none of your business, just throw this away I want to clean up" he said who immediately went to the room.

Forced to choose indifferently, I immediately cleaned the dining table where it turned out that from aunty Anna was in the kitchen, maybe she heard our conversation earlier.

I just smiled awkwardly and left as if nothing had happened.

...****************...

"Can't, Mom! Davina disagreed... Why should we go?"

"If we stay here, where do we live? All assets are sold"

Davina put the glass so rough that it broke in her hand.

"But Brother Vino is the grandson of the owner of HF Bu, the place to stay is easy for him"

"Mom doesn't want to make your sister difficult, now she has a family of her own"

Without listening to her mother, Davina reached for her phone to call her sister but Madam Mellia had already held her back.

"Vania already knows, and I've told you everything that we're going to Canada today, let's have Davina on a flight in a minute.. We need to get to the airport right now"

"But Ma'am"

"No buts, Come on"

Inevitably Davina had to come with the mother because it was impossible for her to ride in her brother's husband's house.

"......"

"Don't disobey Mom, I'll catch up with you after I finish everything" I said to the little sister who was big with me

"meaning?"

"Don't think, just follow the will of the mother and become a dutiful child, you understand"

"Yeah,"

"I will miss you sister" he said as he hugged me, as well as Mother who embraced me.

"Don't think Mom left you, be a good wife and daughter-in-law.. You understand"

I could only nod, then Mom turned to the man standing behind me.

"Mom hope you're a good man and can make Vania happy, may your marriage go well"

"Thank you Ma'am" said Vino politely

"I will cut your future if I dare to betray my sister as well" Davina recalled before she and her mother left.

"......"

Arghhh....

Holding my head, a flash of memory appeared, a man dressed in black and a black hat driving a truck drove towards me.

"You're fine"

"Sorry sir" said Vino because I accidentally nudged the person next to me.

The man just nodded then left, but my gaze kept on pointing at him.

"Sit"

"Are you going to the hospital?" bargained, but I just shook my head and asked to go home.

"Because there's a meeting, I'll book you a taxi"

After waiting for a while, he helped me to stand up while walking towards the exit.

After making sure I got into the taxi, the man immediately got into his car to go to the office.

"....."

Arriving home, I had to be confronted with the mother-in-law and relatives of the Vino family.

"Is he a son-in-law?"

Mrs. Zeline threw away her face and nodded forcefully.

I just smiled kindly, then stepped away up the stairs.

"How could Vino choose such a wife, even her origin is not clear, especially she let go of Rachel" said Mrs Riana.

"You're right, why can a nephew do that, even though Father-in-law really wants HF Motors to unite with Ersy Group" continued Mrs Karin

Vania refrained herself from looking back and continued her steps up the stairs.

"How Brother, Father-in-Law will definitely give his seat to Brother Jimy's son" said Mrs. Carin

"True, Vino eliminated his opportunity to occupy the leadership seat, Fredrich must be difficult to manage a company of that size, especially he is still young" he exclaimed. Riana felt this was a victory for her son.

Two of them are the wives of Mr. Fernan's younger brother, that is the reason why Vino needed time to inherit the chair plus his two uncles did not support the father's decision to leave the parent company to Vino

If the company was built by his own father, maybe he didn't need to marry Rachel to be able to sit on the throne.

Mrs. Zeline could only forcefully smile at Mrs. Riana and Miss. Carin

As she spoke, Aunt Anna ran down the stairs to get to her employer.

"Sorry Madam, but Miss Vania passed out in front of her room"
