Her Mysterious Life – In love with her secret savior - Chapter 189
“Sometimes, our loved ones are happier away from us. Though I would have liked it if she grew up with us here in the town, she became successful and happier only because she didn’t grow up here.”
“As someone who wishes for her happiness, I am glad she left this place and found her own family.” Mia said.
Anthony looked at the woman beside him and he couldn’t help but think about the argument he had with his sister earlier.
If she is really happy with Oliver and wants to spend the rest of her life with him, maybe he should let her do as she wished.
Asking her to stay forever in London for him and others is selfishness.
“She is happy with him.” Anthony said.
“Dr. Miller?” Mia asked.
“Yes.” Anthony answered.
“My friends have told me that Dr. Miller was very good to her when they saw them together.”
“He seems to be a good person.” Mia said.
Anthony nodded his head and after a few minutes of conversation, Mia left. She was here for a walk and saw him sitting in Kyra’s favourite spot and eating her favourite snacks.
She remembered that Kyra’s brother would be coming today so, it didn’t take her much time to piece these both together.
For a long time, Anthony sat in that spot thinking about nothing in particular.
He thought about his sister and what she has to do if she wants to settle in this country.
This thought led him to think about Jennifer and himself. He is currently living in London but he often goes to Australia as he is expanding his law firm.
Would Jennifer be willing to shift to London leaving her family here? Would their relationship be as strong as Oliver and Kyra’s?
“What are you thinking?” Jennifer asked as she sat down beside him.
“Nothing in particular.” Anthony answered.
“About Kyra?” she asked and he nodded his head.
“You shouldn’t have an argument with her. She is upset.” Jennifer said.
“I know. I will apologize to her this evening.” Anthony said.
“You better not upset her again.” Jennifer said, pecking his cheeks.
“I will remember that, Ms. Girlfriend.” Anthony said and kissed her forehead.
He doesn’t know why but ever since he met Jennifer, he was happy and most importantly he had something to look forward to at the end of the day.
She is special.
He had many girlfriends before. But he was never serious about them. At least not serious enough to think about his future with them.
Jennifer is different. Although it haven’t been long they got into a relationship, he is already serious about her.

Meanwhile…
After having lunch, Kyra returned to her work. Jennifer went to meet her boyfriend and Oliver was busy in phone as soon as they are done with lunch.
‘Everyone is too busy to think of me.’ Kyra thought and sat down before asking the attender there to send the next person.
But the person who entered next made her freeze in shock.
It’s her step mother.
While Kyra was in shock, so was her step mother who assumed her dead. When Kyra’s biological mother came for rescue, she also faked Kyra’s death by throwing a different body into river.
As it decomposed, they couldn’t recognise her. Kyra, who was depressed and have already made continuous attempts of suicide, was again suspected of taking her own life.
Kyra’s biological mother paid the hospital people the hefty amount to give the fake results of the post mortem.
So, for Kyra’s step mother and her family, Kyra was dead for more than ten years.
Yesterday, one of her friends from the town told her that his son reunited with his childhood friend.
She didn’t take it seriously untill a girl came and told her that this childhood friend was none other than Alexandria ( Kyra Alexandria Collins ).
At first she didn’t believe it. How can a girl who died resurructed and brought back to life?
But, when she recalled about her step daughter’s suspicious death, she started to think of a possibility.
A possibility where her step daughter is still alive and her death was faked by someone.
As that thought started to haunt her, she decided to see this girl by herself.
And, yes!
She is sure that it is her step daughter.
The features of her face resembles her paternal grandparents. So, it was obvious.
The reason why Kyra’s biological mother and her family couldn’t recognise her us because she was in disguise most of the time.
However, she decided to drop this disguising act before she came on this trip. So, recognising her now is not that hard.
“You are alive.” Kyra heard her step mother mutter.
Kyra held the facade of indifference but her eyes gave it away. The emotions that are flaring in her eyes are too obvious to ignore or miss.
“I don’t know what you are talking about ma’am. If you are not a patient, please leave.” Kyra said, trying to be normal and bussiness like.
“Your grandmother left something important for you. Something about your rescuer.” her step mother said.
“What?” Kyra asked and she instantly regretted it. How careless of her!!
Her cunning step mother used the two most weak spots to toy with her. Her grandmother. Her rescuer from a decade ago.
“So, it’s you!” Her step mother exclaimed and started to laugh hysterically.
“You bitch. You are really alive!” her step mother spatted as she looked at Kyra with murderous look.
“Now, you are here to loot us away!!’ she shouted again. It attracted the people around them.
“Loot you away? How would I be able to loot you away when I got nothing to do with you.” Kyra said.
Loot them away?
Their total worth won’t even be one percent of her wealth. Moreover, she would not do anything that might tie her up with this family here.
“You must be aware that your paternal grandparents left the hotel, house and the land on your name! You are here to take it away aren’t you? You daughter of a bitch!” her step mother angrily yelled.
“When we found out about that, we just wanted to erase you from our away. So, we didn’t give you the medicines you were actually prescribed.”
“It made you more depressed and just as we hoped, you took your life. Atleast that is what we thought.” that step mother gritted.
She kept her voice low so that Kyra would be the only person who could listen to her.
And, when Kyra heard that, her eyes became red and started to turn moist.
So, she was not only tried to be murdered by her biological mother and her family but also her step mother and her family as well.
Why?
Money. Wealth. Power.
“You are such a shameless slut to return and try to take back what me and my kids built all these years in your absence.”
“We got a contract from Miller’s Corps to turn our hotel into a resort. We got a oppurtunity to sell our land to a MNC based London. We are about to get rich!” that step mother yelled in anger.
If Kyra makes a official claim that she is Alexandra, the rightful owner of everything her paternal grandparents left for her, everything must be returned to her.
Their efforts will be drained.
“A contract from Miller’s Corps to turn the hotel into a resort?” a voice came from behind making Kyra and her step mother shift their focus on to that voice.
It is Oliver.
There are few onlookers but they were suddenly ushered out. Probably Oliver’s work
“Yes. And, who are you to interfere?” the step mother demaded, clueless that Oliver is the owner of the Miller corps which has sent a contract to turn the hotel into a resort
“Who am I to interfere? Well, I am not someone special. I am just worried that you will offend the soon to be Mrs. Miller, the boss of the boss of the Millers corps
When Kyra’s step mother heard it she started to laugh making Oliver angry.
“Her? Mrs. Millers?” she asked, laughing.
“Well, don’t you believe?” Oliver asked.
“Why should I? Even I can go and say that I am president’s wife.” her step mother mocked.
Oliver wrinkled his nose in disgust. How did his girlfriend tolerate a lady like this for years??
No wonder she was very depressed back then.
Anger rushed into him when he started to imagine how this arrogant, stupid woman would have tortured Kyra.
“Well, I can prove it.” Oliver said.
“In a few seconds you will be getting a call from the manager.” Oliver said and just as he finished, Kyra’s step mother’s phone started to ring.
When she saw who the caller is, her eyes filled with fear. It is the manager who came to make a offer representing Miller Corps.
And, the contents of the call made her legs tremble.
“Did you like the gift for offending your lady boss here?” Oliver asked
