Chapter 51: Simply Evil Minded.

Aiden supported Maya's back and whispered to her, "I am so sorry, I am late."

Although Maya had blinked her tears back, it did not stop her nose from turning red. When she looked back at him, Aiden could tell that she wanted to cry, but still wanted to maintain her pride... There was nothing wrong with it.

She had almost lost everything that she treasured in just few words, her pride was something that she wanted to clutch onto and not depart with.

"Hey A-" Maya was shocked when she saw him behind herself. She had just opened her mouth to address him when Aiden put his index finger on her lips to quieten her. Maya's eyes widened and she pulled her face back from his hand, it formed a cute little double chin on her face.

"Pfft! She's so cute!" Aiden laughed in his head, and pointed towards the ward door.

Maya understood that he was telling her to keep quiet and listen to their conversation.

"When I did not know that truth about 'that' you know, I really wanted a happy relationship with her." That was the last thing she had heard from Lucas. Right now his father was speaking.

"But you could have ended things in an orderly manner, couldn't you, why did you have to do it thorough such undesirable means?" He could not understand his son, was it not better to end things on a good note, it also made a possibility for turning things positive in the future, but now, there was no other option than parting ways.

"What would I have got out of it?" Lucas looked at his parents as if they had just said a joke. "You have been in contact with her since so long but you guys still don't understand her, do you?"

He knew that his parents were very simple minded. They directly acted on things that they thought would be beneficial for them, and would not think of the process as long as they believed that they would get an outcome.

It was precisely because of this that they kept on acting so much in front of Maya, even after knowing that she had a powerful background.

His father may show that he did not want to take part in all this, but in reality, he was the person who anticipated Maya providing for their family the most.

Then Lucas continued, "Maya likes to make a clean break from all the things she does, why do you think that she can lead the life of a successful businesswoman? It is because she checks off all the points and doesn't leave anything behind. If we had broken up for any reason, she would have straight away left me, if it were not for father's 'treatment',she might have not even talked to me.", He looked at his phone and asked, "Where is she though? When did she go out?"

"Oh Maya? She had left around ten minutes ago, there was no hot water here, so I had sent her to bring some." Mrs. Martin replied to him.

"Oh anyways, Maya's mother never liked me since the beginning, I did not know the reason until so many years, but I got to know about it recently." Lucas paused a bit.

Maya and Aiden who were standing outside also held their breath.

Even Maya did not know the reason her mother was always so repulsive toward Lucas, now and thought about it, was it because maybe she had foreseen that Lucas was not a good man?

Meanwhile Aiden also wanted to know the reason of why Mrs. Parker did not like Lucas. Of course it was not because he was concerned about him but because he wanted to know Lucas's fault so that he himself never made it.

Although he knew that for Maya, her mother's opinion did not matter, Aiden didn't want to overlook any possibility that would hinder the ties between Maya and him.

In the mean time Lucas, the person who had gained a huge amount of interest from the people who were hating him few moments ago, didn't know of anything and continued talking to his parents, "I don't know if I had told you about this before but, previously, Maya's father had arranged a marriage for her. She was only nineteen years old that year, so the other party and her father decided that Maya and whoever the other guy was, could get to know each other first and eventually both the families could come together."

"Yeah, I remember it, I think it was this reason that Maya wanted to find a boyfriend right?" Mr. Martin had always been aware of this fact and was low key happy about it, because if Maya had not rejected the other guy from a rich family even before meeting him, and had a fight with her father, Lucas could never have the chance of entering the scene.

"Hmm... so apparently, Maya's mother really wanted to join ties with that family. She didn't want Maya to go out with a 'poor' person like me." Lucas said.

Outside, Maya did not know how to react whereas Aiden sighed in relief, he had a plus point, and at least his family was very rich.

"She had always been keeping an eye on me, specially in the recent times because Maya had come to visit you guys. So after a long time of keeping watch on me, she finally contacted me and said that if I left Maya for good, she would give me some money."

"So for some meagre amount of money, you left a goldmine!?!" Mrs. Martin shouted in shock. Even Lucas's father aggressively nodded at that.

Lucas smirked as he observed the reactions from his parents. Maya had done so much for them, only to receive this? It was simply evil- minded.

"I am sure that she would have definitely used other ways to make me leave Maya, and those would definitely not be good. So instead I opted for getting caught like this. The amount of money transferred was a lot after that person stepped in." Lucas said seriously.

"What!?" Both Mr. Martin and Mrs. Martin were shocked as they heard that even those people were interested in this matter. If they had intervened here, it meant that 'they' had planned something. And even if, as Lucas' parents tried to stop him, Lucas would definitely not listen to them and act according to those people's orders.


CREATORS' THOUGHTS
nanoree nanoree

I tagged this book, come and support me with a thumbs up! & Who do you this this 'they' are?? Let me know your thoughts!!♡♡

Chapter 52: You need to update your calendar!

Before Maya and Aiden could make some sense of what they were hearing, Lucas said, "I feel that something is wrong, it has been more than fifteen minutes since Maya had gone to fill water. Why has she not returned yet? Should I go and check out?"

"No, you stay here, I will go out and check. Even I was wondering the same, where is that girl? Has she decided to disrespect us now that you have no relationship with her?" Mrs. Martin said as she got up to come out.

Both Maya and Aiden panicked at this, Maya left the door handle as both of them rushed to move away from the door.

Maya quickly sat on the seats provided outside the ward whereas Aiden headed inside his father's ward. He wanted to take her inside as well, but Maya motioned him and declined his offer as she told him to hurry inside.

*clack*

The door opened, Mrs. Martin was too busy in scolding Maya inside her head to notice that the door was slightly open.

She was about to say her thoughts out loud when suddenly she noticed that someone was sitting outside the ward.

"Oh!" She shouted in shock, "Maya! err- Maya dear, what are you doing here?" She quickly changed her tone into a soft one and continued, "Have you brought the hot water? Where is it?"

Mrs.Martin looked at Maya who was just sitting there listlessly without answering her.

She looked around and was unable to find a thermos bottle anywhere and said to her, "Was the water not available!?" She bent a little and caught hold of Maya's elbow, "Get up Maya, we should file a complain! How could a hospital not provide us with water!? We should ask them for a good amount of compensation and if they do not give it to us, we should threaten them by telling them that we will report this to media! They would surely be scared of any bad news about them!"

Maya shook her hand away from Mrs. Martin's clutches and looked up at her, she could practically see dollar signs in her eyes. "Was money the only thing this family wanted from me?" Maya sadly thought.

Mrs. Martin was shocked when she saw that Maya shook her hand away. "!!!" She looked at her with shock as she thought, "Is this girl really showing disrespect towards me?!"

Maya understood this and quickly cleared it up, "No aunty! There is no need to ask the hospital to compensate... actually it's me. I was a bit absent minded, I think I left the bottle downstairs." Saying that Maya got up, "I will bring it back." She wanted to avoid this women at the moment as much as possible.

"Wait!" Suddenly she grasped Maya's hand again.

Maya saw that Aiden was about to come out.

She closed her eyes, "Do not blow up!" She kept on repeating in her mind as she took Mrs. Martin's hand and forcefully yet politely got out of her grip. "Yes aunty?"

After seeing that Maya was very vulnerable right now, Mrs. Martin audaciously thought that maybe she can use this weakness right now and try to convince Maya.

"We can get the water later on, but right now-" Mrs. Martin sat on the seat Maya was seated at previously, "now- I want to have a talk with you, come sit here." She patted on the seat beside her.

Maya reluctantly sat there, and looked at her with doubtful eyes, "What is she planning now...?" She thought.

"Yeah, so I understand that you might be very heartbroken right now, but let me make you understand one thing, that all these things are common, you have been with Lucas since so many years, I do not think that it will be nice to end things now."

"So aunty, you are telling me that it is okay for your son to cheat on me!? What!- how can you-" Maya asked her with shocked expression.

"Maya don't misunderstand me, you will be twenty four years old this year, and you have been in a relationship with my son for almost five years! I think that-"

"Are you trying to tell me that I would not be able to get in another relationship,and that too just because I have already been in one since many years! I am sorry but Mrs. Martin!! I really think you need to update your calendar, in which year do you think we are living in!?" Maya almost shouted as she stood up.

...

Aiden was standing inside, he had the thermos bottle, which Mrs. Martin was searching for before, with him. He had got it previously when it was about to fall from Maya's hand.

Ever since he had entered the ward room, he was almost sticking to the door while trying to make out what was going on outside. At first it was fine and it looked as if they were having some normal conversation. He wanted to go out, but stopped himself when he saw Maya eyeing him not to.

Now all of a sudden, it seemed as if something serious happened, Maya had stood up angrily and was saying something to other lady sitting there.

He was about to open the ward door and go out when he heard a weak voice calling him out. "Aiden?" His father was calling him out.

After making sure that the other lady was not getting in a physical fight with Maya, Aiden reluctantly left the door and went towards his father.

"You have woken up dad. How are you feeling?" Aiden asked with concern, "Do I need to call the doctor?"

"No need Aiden... tell me what were you doing right now?" Mr. Smith first looked at the thermos bottle in his hand and then towards the door. It seemed that he had been up for some while now.

"Umm... dad do you want some hot water?" Aiden said as he wanted to change the topic.

"....." Mr. Smith just kept on staring at him. He did not want to move on from this topic and was stuck on knowing what his son was doing at the door.

"How can you be so childish at your age!" Aiden said jokingly, "Well dad, she is the girl I like, and I want you to know, no matter how much you, or anyone else opposes this, I will not listen." As he reached this part of the sentence, Aiden grew serious.

Mr. Smith smiled at this, "Glad to know, if you got swayed by no matter what reason might be and left her alone, let me tell you, you won't be considered as man of the Smith family! hahaha!"
