Chapter 147 I despise you

"I can explain. A lot of things happened between us and we haven't yet gotten the opportunity. But I'm planning something, I need you to trust me," he said and Lucas somehow calmed down. After making a few phone calls, Grandma asked, "Where's Elena right now?" "I don't know yet but I'm sure that she's still in Blue City. But don't worry, I have a trap laid up for her," he said. As they were still talking, they were interrupted by a ringing phone and on looking at the screen, Cynthia said," Speaking of the devil." She picked it up immediately. "Mom, how are you?" asked Elena. "What do you want?" she asked. Elena sensed indifference in her tone but nonetheless continued, "Mom I just received a notification that my bank accounts have been frozen, don't know why. Uhm... I was asking for some money, I'm out of cash. I'm coming back home next week." Cynthia didn't know what answer to give to her. She could feel the mockery in her tone.

It hurt so much to be betrayed by someone you trusted. Not being able to take it anymore, she lashed out," You thought we wouldn't find out about your evil deeds or you think we are fools? After what your mother did to us and all that we did for you, Elena! Lying to us and going as far as harming our daughter? Have you no conscience? I despise you Elena - "

Before she could say all she wanted, Elena hung up without saying anything.

"You shouldn't have done that. You would have pretended as if we haven't discovered anything so that we could trap her," Lucas said. "I can't pretend with her," she said and she looked at Graham before asking," When I'm I getting the chance to meet my daughter?" "We are going to leave together for Blue City tomorrow. You will meet her at the party," he told her once again. "But won't she get mad? What does she talk about us?" she asked expectantly. "She rarely talks about you. But the few times she does, she only wonders where you might be," he said and she nodded. That was better than her hating them. "If by any chance you land on Elena, don't take her away before I talk to her," said Cynthia.

Back to Blue City, Elena was dumbstruck. Just how did they find out? She was now all alone in this world because of that bitch. Her bank accounts were frozen. Her mother also spoke to her with hatred evident in her voice s

because of her. How she hates her! Gritting her teeth, she decided to wait until the day after tomorrow.

The next day as agreed, Graham and the Howells landed in Blue City. This time, Luis was also with them who was beyond shocked when they narrated everything to him. He was more than shocked when he heard of what Elena had done but for some reason, he never fully trusted her. He was now more than excited to meet his only elder sister. The Howells went to a hotel since they had decided not to show themselves to Luna before the party. They did so because they didn't know what her reaction would be if she saw them and in case it was not positive, they didn't want to spoil her son's birthday. So they could just be patient.

On reaching home, Graham found her on the balcony and the moment she saw him, she hurriedly came and embraced him in a tight hug. After, they headed inside as he asked," You thought I wouldn't come back?" "I knew you would but I was scared that you may come back tomorrow instead," she said.

"I told you I'm done with the lies," he smirked.

Rolling her eyes, she said," Our clothes have been delivered."

The party being tomorrow, Luna couldn't sleep. She didn't know if it was because finally she was going to be introduced to the whole world as Graham's woman or something else she couldn't comprehend. Twisting and turning, she later heard Graham's voice who asked," Not able to sleep?" She nodded before saying," I don't know why I'm suddenly nervous." "It's normal. Tomorrow, I have a gift for you," he said. "What gift is that?" she asked with a bit of excitement in her voice. "It's a surprise."

"Okay. Just give me a hint," she said. "I will have spoiled the surprise then. Tomorrow isn't far," he said and she could only nod.

Early in the morning, the three made way to the Cullen mansion where the party was going to be. Reaching the back yard, Luna was surprised at the beautiful decorations and it seemed like they were not yet done. Just then, she received a call from Bella informing her of her arrival. Picking her up, she took her to one of the guestrooms. "Isn't Ethan coming?" she asked when they reached. "He's still dealing with some matters but he'll come. Where's the birthday boy?" she asked. "Mrs Cullen took him the moment we arrived." Just then, the door opened and Abigail peeked before coming in.
