Chapter 49

Anna looked at Daniel and nodded her head. If his Dad was really maltreating his mum, what could be the cause? She has followed them for a long time and has seen the way he treats her like his precious diamond that nothing must happen to. So why would he start beating her now? She faced Daniel and saw him lost in his thoughts. He could feel her eyes on him as he turned to face her.

"I don't think my father would be the one to beat her like this. He loves her more than this." Daniel said.

"I agree with you on that." Anna said absentmindedly.

Daniel looked at her in shock.

"Hiwdid you know that?" he asked her.

"Knowbwhat?" Anna replied absentmindedly again.

"That my father cannot be the one to do her like this." Daniel asked.

"Ive seen the way he cares for her. And I'm pretty sure he can't lay a fin.."anna said.

She did not finish her sentence as her eyes went to Daniel's.
