One last time - Chapter 352

Looking at the entrance, Janet frowned, “You—”

“How did you get here?” Matthew gritted his teeth.

“I brought him here,” Herpi stated before stepping inside.

“Dad—” Silvia muttered before rushing towards him.

Gently patting her back, Herpi tried to encourage her. “You got this honey, you just need to be patient.”

“But Kevin—”

“He is gonna be okay.”

“We had to involve uncle Herpi, we needed some help from him. No one other than him knows about it,” Janet explained. Looking at George who was still standing near the door, she asked, “What is he doing here?”

“He came with me, he wants to help us.” Without waiting for anyone’s reply, Herpi further explained, “He will distract Sabrina.”

Raising his brows, Henry chuckled, “Now this is interesting, why would you want to deceive Sabrina out of all the people?”

“Because that is the right thing to do.” Looking at Silvia, George stated, “I have done many bad things knowingly and unknowingly alongside Sabrina. I have already allowed us to sacrifice our daughter once, I cannot let her do it again.”

Pausing for a while, he added, “I was never a good father and I can never make up for it but I at least want to do something which will help my daughters in some way.”

“Why should we trust you? What if this is some kind of a new trick you and Sabrina are trying to pull on us?” After whatever had happened in the past, it was hard to trust George and his intentions and he understood everyone’s concern.

“I know it’s hard for everyone to trust me but this time, I have no other intention,” George troe to explain himself.

“What about Sabrina? She—”

Cutting Ron off, he answered, “She doesn’t know I am here, in fact, she doesn’t know anything. She is busy making plans to travel to Malgories for the competition.” Looking at Janet he added, “She has planned something with your father and someone from the organization is helping them too. If we don’t do something about Sabrina, things might go wrong.”

“Uncle Herpi, can I have a word with you?” When he nodded his head, Matthew walked towards a corner.

Looking at George, Matthew shared his concern. “I don’t know if it’s safe to trust him.”

“I don’t know but this time, this guy seems genuine. From what I have heard, he never does anything without telling Sabrina but this time, Sabrina has no idea what he is up to,” Herpi remarked. “And it’s not like we have any other choice. There is no way any of us can distract that lady so that she falls into our trap. No matter how much we hesitate, we need this guy more than he needs us.”

Though everyone was skeptical of George, they had no other choice. They needed time to come up with a plan to deal with Sabrina and time was the only thing they did not have at the moment. In the current situation, if George really wanted to help them then he was no less than an angel for them.

While everyone was busy discussing what they had to do next, Silvia approached George.

“Why are you doing this? Why after all these years?” she curiously inquired. The man in front of him was her biological father who had abandoned her. Though she had no feelings for him, she was still curious about his actions.

“I just want to do one thing right in my life. I ruined your life once and I have never stopped feeling guilty. Now I want to do something that will help you live a peaceful and happy life forever.”

George had no other intentions, he just wanted to do something right and fair. He was tired of entertaining Sabrina’s lies. He always wanted to be a supportive husband and he was one but he failed to differentiate between the right and wrong thing and ended up supporting Sabrina blindly.

Along with Sabrina, George was also equally responsible for whatever had happened and he would never forgive himself for that.

After discussing everything properly, everyone agreed on letting George be a part of their plan.

At the end, they were able to execute their plan smoothly. They successfully managed to convince everyone about Silvia’s death.

After the whole incident, Silvia went into hiding along with Ron, while Janet stayed in the limelight to execute the second half of their plan—Abolishment of SPIRIT.

….

PRESENT

Placing her hand on Janet’s shoulder, Silvia stated, “Rocky also needs to know.”

“He doesn’t even wanna see my face.”

“Because we made him believe something that is not the truth. I am sure once everything is clear, he will understand,” Silvia remarked.

Janet sighed and placed her head on her shoulder. “We are almost done, Sil, just hold on a little longer.”

“You should take more rest, you look exhausted. You need to think about your and the baby’s health too.”

“Shouldn’t I tell you the same things as well,” Janet chuckled.

After two months of hiding, Silvia found out that she was pregnant. After losing her first baby, this was big news for her and Kevin. She wanted to share it with him but she couldn’t. There were times when she wanted to call him and tell him everything but that would risk not only hers and Kevin’s life but also their baby’s. She had already lost their first child because of her carelessness, she did not want to risk their second baby’s life too.

For the past three months, she always convinced herself to hold on a little longer and she would be with Kevin very soon. But at times, it was hard to hold on. It was hard controlling herself from doing something outrageous.

Though people around her took good care of her, she always felt empty and she knew exactly what it was.

She missed Kevin, she missed his touch, his love, his care. She missed everything about him.

….

When she learned about his condition, Silvia was heartbroken. The fact that he was suffering because of her made her feel awful and miserable. But again, she was helpless. She knew he had lost all hope, he had given up but she didn’t want him to take himself down. This is why she decided to give him a tiny hope.

Little did Silvia know that she did manage to give her husband the push he needed.
