Chapter 42: "So wanna hit him?",

Wendy's apartment.

A sudden sound made her come out of the thoughts...She heard the door opening sound as she quickly kept the pen inside the box and into the cupboard then ran towards the washroom.

She entered the washroom as her knees left all their strength.

"Mama...Mama...are you home?", Sunny's voice entered her ears which made her cry even more. She wiped her tears and opened the tap, the water started to flow.

"Darling...I'm in the washroom, I'll be out after a bath.", She tried her best to act calm.

"Okay Mama.", He spoke as he walked out of the room and entered the study as he shut it with sound.

He opened his laptop and started to open a file that contained a mysterious app. As his hands started to type on the keyboard.

Jane walked into the study as he saw the little kid doing something seriously. She walked towards him and saw the screen which made her eyes widen.

"You...How can you? How...How can you code this fast at your age?", She was scared out of her wits.

"Grandma...Aunt Aditi was the one who raised me. You are the one who raised her, Don't tell me you are not sure of her coding speed.", He spoke as he concentrated back on the code.

"No wonder...but what are you decoding?", She questioned...She was not surprised rather was impressed by this brat's speed, after Aditi she didn't see anyone code this quickly at this age.

"My mom is crying...I wanna check her schedule today, I tracked her phone and now I'm seeing the locations she been to.", He said calmly but only he knows how angry he is feeling on that someone who made her cry.

"It isn't the first time...she locked herself this time, that means something huge must have happened.", He analyzed yet his typing didn't stop.

"Got it. FOR YOU.", He spoke out. Aunt Jane's face turned pale hearing that name.

"Aunt Jane...Can I ask you to give her the lotion that is on the top shelf after she walks out of the washroom?", He asked as his eyes darkened and fists tightened.

"Why? Where are you going?", She asked.

"Nowhere...Every time she locks herself, she rubs her body until she feels the reddish marks...If I was to go in and stop her, she locks herself in the room for the other 2 days without eating or speaking with anyone. So, I'll stay here in the study and pretend to do homework...you go and give her the lotion I mentioned.", His eyes carried the helplessness, words carried unknown pain.

"Does it happen often?", She questioned.

"No...this happen twice and this is the third time.", He spoke as he walked towards the table.

Jane saw him, she realized this kid had similar characteristics as Aditi.

'Is it because he's her real nephew?' She wondered tears filled her eyes as she walked out.

She entered her room and quickly dialed a number. The call went through.

"Boss...young Madam is hurt beyond we think...She...[she said everything she learned from Aarav.]... Boss did we do a mistake sending Young master Karan to Ms.Wendy?", She questioned.

Her eyes carried guilt and pain for Wendy.

"Karan was drugged...and do you think other than the friend Anvi choose herself, any other girl would be a perfect fit to marry him?", The Old man's voice came through.

"I know...but if not for the reason he was drugged, Do you really think I would use this method towards a girl. I'm sorry for her too...But I don't regret it because only the girl Anvi choose can carry Karan's child. Only she has the right to be the mother of my Great grandchild.", He spoke.

"But Boss...your daughter Ms.Henna still doesn't know you are alive and Mr. Anan seem to have a guess who you are...What are you planning to do?", She spoke in a low voice.

"Boss...Don't you miss your Daughter, Son, Grandchildren, and your Great grandchild?", She continued.

"For Vastav's, Mishra's, and Ajay's family to be safe...Anvi, I and my Wife have to remain dead...If that person knows that we are still alive...Consequences will be worst than we expect.", He spoke.

"I get it, How is Elder Madam?", She asked.

"Same...still lying on the bed, doctors said her health is detouring.", The Old man spoke.

"Take care Boss...leave the matters here to me.", She reluctantly hung up the call.

'God...Must you hurt these families like these?', She thought as she walked towards Wendy's room.

Meanwhile.

Just like Aarav described she was standing under cold water and she started to wipe herself until her skin turned red. After wiping her tears she waited for few minutes in the washroom as she walked out.

Jane's face appeared in front of her.

"Must you really hurt yourself like this?", Jane's question carried her pain for her.

Wendy broke into tears again as she hugged her.

"I feel filthy all over...my body doesn't feel like mine after what happened that night...My heart hurts every time I remember my pleading for him to stop harassing me...", She chocked herself.

"Dear...I know, Stop crying...please...", Her heart ached so much for Wendy...if not for them.

"Aunt Jane...I...I saw him...but he doesn't seem to remember me.", She spoke as her hug tightened around Jane.

"Hmm...Did you hit him?", She asked.

"No...", She replied.

"So wanna hit him?", She questioned again.

"I...I don't wanna...", her broken voice came through.

"So...you wanna avoid him again?", Jane's voice startled Wendy. Jane extended her hand as she caressed Wendy's cheek.

"Dear listen...fight for yourself, When he doesn't know it's you, what are you afraid of? When you are ready, give him a good beating and ask him why did he do that to you...", She paused as she stared at Wendy who's in deep thought.

'Good...it's working.', she thought.

"Sunny already didn't have a father for a few years now...don't you think he also wants to know about his father? I know that he was a rogue...but did you give him a chance to explain himself? Hmm? Listen to me and try for The First and Last time...for Sunny, if that person is really a rogue then leave him...but if he's also innocent and had a reason, then try to give him a chance.", She spoke.

Wendy fell into deeper thought...She was young and fearful back then, She didn't dare to stay there a minute after he left the room that night...but now that she thought, Sunny must have had a tough time dealing with society and the trolls.

She wiped her tears...

"Aunt Jane...I'll try, but keep it a secret from Aditi and Sunny. I wanna confront him myself.", She spoke.

"Okay...don't forget, I'll always be here.", She spoke as she passed the lotion.

'Young Master Karan...I've done my job, please don't disappoint Ms.Wendy and pour all my efforts into the lake.', Jane spoke to herself and walked out of the room.
