Chapter 598 - Your father might be alive...
"There are high chances that your father might be alive" Maria completed Jean’s sentence.
"Council people met me some days back. I regret so much for suspecting my twin sister and my fiancé. They were just like closest friends since they met and remained same till their death." She started to cry again. That is the reason she is little awkward with Jasper. She suspected the only people whom she loved most. That made her guilty and that is the exact reason she uses to escape from staying back in her parents’ home.
"They faked their marriage to protect you guys...we thought things will be solved in few months and after that we can go back to normal. I and Sophia decided to switch our places after everything finishes.... I will be his wife and Sophia could return back to her normal life. But in meanwhile we must also ensure your security and that is why we decided to fake their marriage. As, me and Sophia look alike and I use to disguise myself back then, we thought no one can suspect her if she acts as Jonathan’s wife because me and him were in relationship for more than two years at that time. So, she mirrored my disguise I use to use back then and entered Grey family as Jonathan’s wife....as someone from normal family background. But we didn’t expect that few months would extend to years and that this mess would never end." Maria sighed.
Jean and Jeff sat beside her and leaned their heads on either of her shoulders. "You are truly great mom" this time even jean called him mom rather than calling her aunt. At that time, she was not aware why Maria use to act too weird with her. As she found out now, she will never ever misunderstand he aunt.
Maria’s lips curved into bright smile as she heard jean calling her mother. "I have always thought of you as my own daughter Jean. You might not be Jonathan’s blood daughter but he loved you more than a true father can love his daughter. He and Sophia were actually very close friends and that is how I met him. Later, your mother hooked us up. We owe her so much Jean...so much that it will take more than this lifetime to fulfil it. She is great not me" Maria smiled.
"You are really very good" Jean teared up.
Jeff hugged them and the trio stayed like that for sometime before Maria broke the silence.
"I think there will be some photos of your mother and father as well. After Jasper was born, they would have surely spent some time together, because in that six months Jonathan stayed with me" Maria said. That was the last time they met before he died. He uses to tell her that everything will be finished soon and they could be together forever.
But he left her forever and went....
Meanwhile Jean giggled as she remembered something. That six months she had stayed with her aunt Elena and her cousin Daniel. So, her parents were busy with their own spouses back then...
"Jean, you have to f*cking look at this." Jeff showed them the photo in which their mother is holding baby jasper. A man was hugging both of them from behind as his lips are pressing kiss on Sophia’s head. They looked happy.... very happy in fact.
She never saw her mother that happy...Never....
"Julian" Maria hissed.
"He is my mentor..." Jean said totally in shock.
"He is the same person who taught you and Jasper how to hack right." Jeff asked. In fact, he is the same person who use to stay in this home and he is also Jean’s favorite mentor ever.
"But he vanished" Jean cried.
Her favorite mentor who is also just like her father figure is actually her real father.
"He didn’t vanish Jean. Jasper said that he is in coma now.... he might get consciousness anytime soon." Jeff said,
......
Meanwhile in Johann and Edward side....
"How? I mean.... what are you doing here in council? You are the son of second young master of Braxton. You are supposed to be hating council..." Johann almost shouted in shock.
"Give me at least one reason why I should hate council and why you are hating council" Edward asked.
"One reason.... you want one reason. In fact, I had many why we both should hate council. But.... you, you betrayer...." Johann’s voice shook with anger.
"Betrayer? You are the one who betrayed.... not me" Edward said. He didn’t lose his cool self because he has been anticipating this day since long. And the timing is so perfect that Jean find out about the biggest secret they are hiding from her. Council wanted her to know all this by herself because it is the best way to convey those sensitive things.
"Of course, you are the betrayer because you forgot the important fact that council killed your first uncle whom you loved more than your father. You are the betrayer because council is the reason your mother died while she is pregnant. Council is the main reason didn’t have a perfect family....and you, how can you even side up with them" Johann scoffed angrily.
"Your father is trying very hard to take a revenge for both your uncle and your mother.... but here you are.... acting as a double spy for the council. You are just like your aunt (Enrick’s mother). She sided up with council once and you are siding up with council now. You disgust me Edward.... you are really a fool" Johann emotionally said as he looked at Edward with hate and disgust.
However, Edward couldn’t help but laugh out load. "If these were the reasons you hate council. Then let me tell you some facts you are so blind to follow up" the Edward said as he sat down on the sofa.
