Chapter 304 : The Truth
Chapter 304 : The Truth
“Your beloved father helped me to set you up! Hahaha! How’s that for a heads up?” With all emphasis
on every word, Trishia smiled like she already won the fight.
Hearing Trishia, Arabella’s memory brought her to that tragic night.
“Do you think Bill would love you? Ha!Ha!Ha!” Trishia laughed seeing Arabella was lost in her deep
thinking. “He will kill you, Arabella Jones. Bill Sky will kill you if he will know that your beloved father
killed his father. Hahaha!” Trishia laughed madly.
Pissed of Trishia and the information, Arabella threw the knife away and got the scissors on the floor.
She stormed to Trishia grabbed her hair and started to cut it.
“What are you doing. Bitch? Let go of me!” Trishia struggled hard until she escaped from Arabella's
grip. “Shit! What have you done to my hair? You! You… Bitch!” Trishia roared wildly. Arabella
successfully cut her long hair. Holding it, she purposely showed it to Trishia with a triumphant smile on
her face. “I warned you but you didn’t listen,” Arabella uttered. “Come here so I can make you bald!”
She taunted Trishia.
“You are insane! Grrrr!” Giggling with intense anger, Trishia hissed. “I will come back for you Arabella
Jones! You will see!” She added indignantly and quickly ran off.
Arabella heaved a heavy sigh of relief. Finally, Trishia was gone like a lightning bolt. She looked at
Trishia’s hair then she smirked. Her eyes wandered around her apartment. It was like a huge tornado
came inside her apartment and scrambled all her things. She was devastated by the scene, the hair
she was holding especially the owner of the hair. Full of grudges, she threw Trishia’s hair in the bin then
she plunged herself into the sofa with full of her curtain’s fabrics cut into pieces.
'Your dad...'
'Your beloved dad...'
'Your dad framed you...'
Trishia's words were like a boomerang in her head.
"Dad! I just hope Trishia was lying..." She heaved a deep sigh then she closed her eyes trying to regain
her calm for a while.
After, she stood up and started fixing her place.
At night, Arabella tossed on her bed. She felt tired of cleaning the whole day but she could not put
herself to sleep. Her mind was still occupied with Trishia’s revelations. She refused to believe Trishia’s
words but they kept on bugging her mind. She felt a scorching flame of anger in her heart thinking of
her father helping Trishia to ruin her. How could her father have done it to her? She had to know the
truth because if it was true, she could never forgive him. First, he chose Alice Meyer over her, and still,
she was trying to save him from Sen. Meyer’s hands. She put her life in danger again just to save her
dad. Now, if Trishia was true, how could she be able to handle it? It was too absurd! Is her dad still
worth saving for? She had to know the whole truth.
After a while, she got her phone. She heaved a deep sigh first before she called someone.
“Oh dear, I think this is my lucky night.” Sen. Meyer answered excitedly.
Arabella smirked mockingly on the other line. She never wanted to call this old man but he got her dad
and he was the only one who knew where her dad is.
“I want to see my dad.” Arabella’s tone did not glow. She was tired the whole day. She felt more tiring
debating with Trishia rather than cleaning her house. Now, it was Trishia’s stepdad’s turn. Arabella just
wished to get rid of this family in her life as she heaved a very exhausted sigh.
“Oh, your dad… Actually, I was about to call you regarding your next mission in saving your pathetic
dad. What an instinct you’ve got there, Arabella. You called me first!” Sen. Meyer said in a friendly tone
more if he was talking to his close friend.
“Cut the crap, Senator!” Arabella hissed. She never wanted to have a long chit-chat with the old vicious
senator. It just irritated her so much. “Let me see my dad and you will know my answer to that mission
you are mentioning.” She ordered firmly.
Sen. Meyer was quiet for a while on the other line. She waited. Arabella knew this old man was so
cunning and would never give her anything without something in exchange.
"Okay..." Sen. Meyer finally answered. "Tomorrow...will send you the address." He added and then cut
the call without waiting for Arabella's response.
For Arabella, it was so unlikely. She knew the Senator had something up his sleeves. Somehow, she
felt a little satisfaction. Finally, she could confront her father. She had to know the truth or her mind
would explode.
The next morning, Arabella showed up early in an old building located 1hr. away from Capital Z.
"What are you doing here!?" Arabella's dad growled seeing Arabella outside his cage. His expression
was displeased and his eyes were polling."Did I not tell you not to come here anymore? I told you to
run away from here! Stop seeing me, baby... Stop seeing me!" He added with a frustrated tone. He
seemed determined to oust her.
"Why dad? Why you don't want to see me, dad? Is it because of your other daughter?" Disheartened,
Arabella blurted out. She felt the sadness in her heart and at the same time the anger too of being
chased away.
After hearing Arabella's words, her father halted. He was shocked and his facial expression couldn't
hide her surging emotions. "What, dad? Are you shocked that I knew I have a sister?"Arabella strode
closer to her dad's cell.
Her dad's expression was stunned and displeased. He seemed not to expect that Arabella would find
out about his other daughter.
"What...How did you know?" His tone had no glow.
"Trishia! Trishia Meyer... Is it true that she's my sister?" Arabella uttered with eagerness in her tone and
expression.
Her dad George Foster, looked at her. She met his eyes. Then eventually, he glanced down and
nodded.
"Yes." He responded.
Arabella was expecting this but still, she felt something indifferent inside her. She could not decipher if
it was jealousy or it was anger inside her.
"Huh!" She could just utter it unbelievably. "Hahaha..." Then she couldn't help but laugh bitterly.
"Dad... What have you become?" She asked with great disappointment in her tone. George Foster
remained his head low but she was sure that he heard her completely. The truth made her lose her
calm. She was bugged with something that she was about to explode. Arabella heaved a deep sigh
trying to keep her sanity intact in the situation.
"I'm...I'm sorry, baby..." Her dad said with deep regrets.
After hearing him, her stubborn tears skipped from the corners of her eyes. She hated to cry in front of
her father but she could not help it. Her tears were flowing like they were stuck for too long and
suddenly were expelled.
"I have been wanting to tell you this but your mom stopped me." George Foster explained. "But please,
don't get mad with your mother. She just wanted to protect you. She wanted to spare you from the
pain." He added with pleading eyes as he looked at Arabella then lowered his head again.
"I never hated mom." She strongly reacted. "The person I hated the most is you!" She roared angrily.
"You, dad... How could you help your other daughter to set me up?" She cried out blaming him. George
Foster looked at her again. His expression was stunned and his eyes were full of regrets. He seemed
out of words. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
"I'm very sorry... I'm very sorry, baby." He uttered again full of regrets. "It's all my fault. Blame
everything on me!" Arabella saw her dad's expression was awful. His eyes were teary like he was
trying to hold his emotions. It just made Arabella feel annoyed. His words were not acceptable to her. It
was very obvious that her father was covering Trishia Meyer. Arabella felt she was abandoned again by
her father. The pain was just too much for her to handle. "You know dad..."Along with her words were
her tears flowing rapidly. She walked closer to his cell and held the bars. Great disappointments were
shown in her eyes as she looked at her dad with a broken spirit. " ...you were my hero once. You are
the person I trusted the most. You were my best friend. The person who I wanted to become someday
when I was your baby girl. At that time, you were my best of the best dad in the world..." She muttered
like she was the only one talking to herself. "Ha!ha!ha!" Then after, she laughed. Not a joyful laugh but
the most bitter one. Obviously, she found all her memories were just a joke.
"I'm very sorry, baby." George Foster quickly appeased her. He was full of guilt in his expression. "I am
not a good father. I'm very sorry." He struggled to get up and walked toward her. He tried to touch her
but Arabella moved her hands away disgustingly from his cell.
"Stop apologizing, dad. You are not sorry... because if you do... you will not protect your other daughter.
You can even hurt me repeatedly for your other family. You are a hopeless man. I hate you!" She
roared angrily.
"That's right baby... Hate me! Hate me all you want. Get away as far as you can and don't come back
here again! Do you understand?" Her father strongly responded.
"You can't even act to like me even a bit. You can't even pretend to be a good father even for a minute
for me..." Arabella sobbed disheartened. "Don't worry dad, you will not see me again." Finally, she
announced firmly. With her heart shattered into pieces, she quickly turned around leaving her dad
alone. With the intense pain, she swore not to come back for him. For her, it was the right thing for her
to do. It was enough trying hard to be accepted by someone, especially her father. She felt tired tying.
Very tired. As she strode to the exit, her tears kept on flowing. She cried out trying to let go of all the
pain she felt when someone blocked her way.
"Don't cry over a spilled milk, dear." Even without lifting her head, she already deciphered the owner of
the voice. No other than, Sen. Meyer.
Her furious eyes met his teasing eyes as she quickly wiped away her tears.
"Oh, don't look at me like that, dear... I am not your enemy here." With a cunning expression, Sen.
Meyer murmured. Arabella never felt good with the senator as her glance never left him.
"Come on, would you care for some coffee?" The Senator invited her with a friendly tone.
"No! I don't have time for you." She quickly refuted then she proceeded walking avoiding the Senator
but the old man grabbed her arm. She stopped. "Let go of me!" She strongly snatched her arm away
from him but when she was about to leave, Sen. Meyer's men arrived by one snapped of his fingers.
Arabella stopped again. She gritted her teeth looking at the three men blocking her way. "Arabella...
Arabella Jones... what are you thinking? Do you really think that you can get away from me?"
