Chapter 149 : The Secret Revealed

…

After some time…

Ana felt a terrible headache, her eyes slowly opened and her body felt extremely weak.

“Uh, what happened? Where am I?” Elena groaned, blinking several times to clear her vision.

At that moment, Ana remembered that earlier she had tried to help a little child find his mother, but when the child ran into a small alley, someone suddenly covered her mouth until she lost consciousness.

It turned out the lost child had only been bait to trap Ana.

“Huh?” When Ana’s eyes fully opened, she frowned. Her hands were tied, and she could immediately feel a strong wind behind her. She was sitting at the edge of a cruise ship that was now sailing in the middle of the ocean.

“HUH?”
“WHAT IS THIS?”
“I…”

Ana panicked, her breathing became very heavy and her body trembled from the cold sea wind. But before she could do anything…

“She’s awake, Sir…” Someone came to report that Ana had regained consciousness. Hearing that, an old man with a gentle and humble face stepped toward the place where Ana was being held.

He walked closer and saw that Ana was indeed awake, looking extremely terrified, because if she moved too much, she could fall off the ship.

Yes, Ana had been deliberately placed at the very edge of the ship, where if someone pushed her, she would fall immediately.

Of course there was a barrier there, but it had gaps large enough that Ana really could fall at any moment.

“Huh? You’re the old man I met at the library, right?”
"Why are you here? Wait…”
“Are you the one who kidnapped me? But why?” Ana panicked, her hazel eyes widened and with a pale face she tried to find a way to survive this horror.

At that moment Morgan Regis was already sitting in front of Ana. His subordinates had prepared the chair because he could not stand too long due to his age.

He then smiled, a smile that looked very kind, but of course his attitude was the complete opposite of that gentle face.

“You really look like your mother. Who would have thought you were still alive…”
“What a troublesome matter,” Morgan muttered calmly, looking at the moon illuminating the ocean surface, which looked magnificent and beautiful.

He smiled faintly, reminiscing about the past.

“What do you mean? My mother? How do you know my mother? Who are you really and why are you doing this to me?” Elena shouted, eyes wide, body trembling and chest feeling tight.

“Of course I know your mother, Camelia Anastasya… a very beautiful woman with eyes exactly like yours. Because of that beauty, I lost my mind…”

“Heh, remembering the past makes me nostalgic!”

“It’s such a pity your mother went crazy because she was pregnant with you. I didn’t like that she kept screaming, so I just let her die on that fire.”

Morgan spoke very casually, as if human life meant nothing to him.

“Huh? Camelia Anastasya…”

“That’s not my mother’s name, my mother’s name is…”
“Wait…” Anastasya fell silent, her face turning pale. She remembered the diary she had read, the life of a girl named Anastasya who wrote that she had been defiled by a disgusting man.

That the girl named Anastasya, the owner of the diary, hated the child in her womb because she didn’t want it.

That the child in her womb was a bringer of misfortune in her life.

Ana also remembered the last message in that diary,

“After seeing my daughter’s tiny hands, my heart felt broken and melted. I hated how she was born healthy, but her innocent eyes threw me into an abyss… Is this a mother’s love? I love her so much even though all this time I always wanted to destroy her while she was in my womb…”

“I am not worthy of being her mother. Please give her the name Anastasya, a name of fortune that might light her life in the future.”

“Please take care of Anastasya for me.”

The last message at the end of the diary, with her photo as a baby, the paper worn as if tears had soaked it before.

All of that made Ana’s head hurt. “No! This is just my imagination. Mom and Dad are my biological parents, it’s impossible I’m the child of that poor girl… Impossible…” Ana tried to calm herself.

But as if the truth had to be revealed, Morgan continued speaking…

“Unfortunately, you are my flesh and blood. The DNA test came out long ago, and you are truly my biological daughter…”

“What a pity, at this family reunion you must die soon!” Morgan Regis said casually. He had to eliminate Ana so his past mistakes could be buried completely.

“HUH?!”

“DON’T JOKE! THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE…”

“YOU ARE NOT MY FATHER…”
"NO!”

Ana panicked, she screamed but the sea wind drowned out her voice. Then Morgan said something that made Ana’s heart feel like it would explode.

“But not yet. You have to live for a while longer. The man who is with you must come here…”

“I didn’t expect luck to always be on my side. The first time we met at the library I was already sure you looked very much like Camelia…”

“After I investigated, you really are her daughter. And who would have thought you have connections with the Harold family, and because of our coincidental meeting I found a very interesting fact…”

“The man by your side has unfinished business with me. Not only his father, but his son also wants to disturb me…”

“So I might as well eliminate both of you here! You are just parts of my past that must die!”

Morgan Regis whispered with a smile, feeling that the goddess of fortune was always on his side.

Who would have thought that by coincidence he discovered that the son of the friend he once betrayed and killed was still alive and would become a threat to him.

Because he already knew all of this, he would use Ana as bait to eliminate Alex De Graham, also known by his real name Alexander Kingston.

THUMP

Hearing that, Elena’s breath stopped, her heart felt like it would explode, her eyes widened and she remembered Camila’s words that she was too weak to be Alexander’s partner, and sooner or later she would become his greatest weakness.

“No! No!”

“Don’t! Please don’t…”

“I beg you, I don’t want to be a bringer of misfortune to him…”

“Please don’t drag Alexander here. You can kill me but don’t drag him here…”

“Please!”
"Don’t…” Ana cried pleadingly. She didn’t want to be a curse to Alexander, she didn’t want to bring danger to him.

If that happened, she wouldn’t be able to live, then she truly would be a curse to everyone.

“Heh!”
“My daughter seems to love him very much, wow… That means I will have entertainment tonight…”

“HAHAHA!” Morgan Regis immediately walked into the ship’s interior, leaving Ana battered by the strong sea wind at the edge of the ship, where she could fall at any moment.

After Morgan left, Ana felt like she could faint because her chest felt crushed. She didn’t want Alexander to come here and put himself in danger.

“I beg you, I will do anything but please don’t put him in danger because of me…”
"I beg you…” Elena, her hands handcuffed, cried bitterly, looking at the starry sky as if praying.

…

Meanwhile at the same time…

Alexander’s anger had reached its peak. As soon as he arrived at headquarters he received a message from an unknown sender, a photo of Ana at the edge of a ship in handcuffs.

Alexander knew it was a trap but he could not lose Ana.

He had already lost too much. If he lost Ana, he would not be able to live anymore.
