High School: Way to Forever

Chapter 276: Way to truth (1)

..

The day of engagement finally arrived. The preparations were all done. Floors and walls were decorated with flowers in white, with a combination of light pink.

Everything was set, the candles, the balloons, and the dresses for everyone. While, Anna sat inside her room, staring at her reflection in the mirror.

The day she was waiting for so long is finally here but she wasn't ready at all. There was no smile on her face as the emotionless expressions of her were quite similar to any grave.

Anna was getting her makeup done, as the makeup artist was specially selected by Klara because she wanted her daughter in law to look magnificent in between all the guests as she was the star of today's event. But no one asked Anna if she wanted to get ready or not.

Her down spirits were making the makeup artist believe that this bride was absolutely not interested in getting engaged to their boss.

But none of them even dared to open their mouth because they were too afraid of the aura that she was omitting at this time, which might make others believe that when Anna opens her mouth, they might all be dead!

"M...Ma'am, shall I apply eyeliner as well as eyelashes?" The makeup artist's head asked while being a little nervous.

Anna looked at him with her cold eyes and then slowly nodded her head. After getting permission to do so, he gently applied a little eyeliner on her eyes, and after the makeup of fifteen minutes, Anna was perfectly ready to be presented.

"Ma'am, you can try on your dress now. We all shall leave and wait outside. We will do the touch up afterward." Amna lightly nodded her head as they closed the door behind them, leaving her alone in the room with absolute silence.

'It looks like this day will be the dullest day of my life.' As a girl herself, Anna has dreamt that she will be super happy on the day of her engagement but nothing is like that.

Instead of looking happy, she was sad and missing Alex too much. She looked around to find her phone lying on the bed. Walking up, Anna took her phone and tried calling Alex, but to her dismay, his number was switched off at this crucial time.

"What the hell is he doing!?!" Anna was getting frustrated with each passing second. Alex hadn't contacted her for so long and she was eagerly waiting for him to appear somehow.

But then, her revenge for her brother came inside her mind. Instead of calling Alex once again, she opened one picture of hers and Alex in the gallery of her mobile phone.

It was a picture that they both took when he had taken her for the campaign on the mountains. Many memories were associated with it. Their first kiss, the heart to heart confessions as well as their win in the competition.

'I wish Alex, I could stop the time here and just come to you and give you a tight hug.' Anna's heart was breaking because she knew, if her detective doesn't call her on time, then she will have to proceed with the engagement and get engaged to Chris In front of everyone which she is reluctant to do.

Taking a deep breath, Anna looked at the dress besides the phone, lying on her bed.it was a long, white color dress which was quite tight skinned. Taking it in her hand, Anna stared at it for a few minutes with a complicated look but later on, went inside her bathroom to change it.

After two minutes, Anna came outside to find herself staring at her body and the dress gifted by Chris, which showed her all curves of the body which Anna tried to hide forever.

The door opened as Anna turned around to find grandmother walker and Marrie standing there and looking at Anna with new.

'My princess, you look beautiful." Grandmother Walker complimented as she came a little closer to Anna and gave her a kiss on her cheeks. While Married felt a little conflicted while Seeing Anna in such a dress.

"Anna You do look beautiful but let me remind you, I'm not happy with this engagement even for a second. I think you should run from here!" Marrie once again warned her because, as her mother, she felt that this was nothing but a cage for their dear daughter.

Anna smiled at her mother and hugged her tightly, "Don't worry mom. I'm doing something for my brother. Tomorrow is my brother's death anniversary. I swear that everything will be alright and brother's killer will get what he deserved!" Anna assured her mother as she whispered this softly in her mother's ears.

Marrie slightly patted her daughter's back and spoke, "Did you and your father get to know who was behind it?"

"No. But I will soon find it out. All I'm requesting you is to act normally and don't try to gain any suspicion from Steve's. Especially from Chris or David."

Anna knew how their eyes are, as sharp as an eagle. A simple action of theirs will get them alerted as soon as possible and her plan will drastically fail because they all were living on their land and their powers are still limited when compared in the south of Zuak land.

"Anna, you aren't only Anna walker but also, Walker's family's heir. I'm sure that you will keep everything in your mind and then take all the important decisions." grandmother spoke from the other side which made Anna nod her head once again.

"I know who I'm. I wish dad had made all the preparations that I have asked him to do. If everything goes according to our plan then today, there will be two deaths. One of my brother's killers and the other will be Chris!"

The determination was reflected in her eyes as she spoke these words to her grandmother who looked proud to see this side of her granddaughter after so long.

While Sierra was fierce, Anna was calm and composed. She makes all her moves from the brain, not from the heart. Every move of hers is planned beforehand which is why Anna is a better option to take her revenge than anyone else.

"I hope you succeed in everything that you have planned Anna. This will be long enough to test your patience and emotions but don't let your emotions take control over you!" Grandmother advised her granddaughter while Married was still concerned for her daughter's safety but did not raise her voice anymore.

Instead, Liam came inside from behind and looked at the two ladies inside already. But, he simply gave Ana a meaningful glare, which made Anna turn around and speak to the ladies present in her room.

"Ummm I have something to discuss with dad in person.."

"Sure. we will be waiting downstairs for you. Do tell me when you both are done." grandmother Walker said and pulled Marrie along with herself downstairs.

Liam looked at Anna from head to toe and was surprised to see that she was wearing something so tight, which he was aware wasn't of her taste at all.

"'You don't wear such clothes at all."

"Of course I don't. It's that I don't want any suspicion here at this time when our plan is almost on the verge of getting fulfilled." Anna sarcastically and practically replied which made Liam frown a little bit.

"As you have asked me, I have asked my mentor to be present outside Steve's mansion. Just one call and they all will be ready to attack inside and capture everyone you want. What are our further plans?" Liam asked while he noticed Anna's cold nature.

She was not aching like herself for the past two days since she agreed to get engaged to Chris. But he hasn't asked her anything because he was aware that she hurt very badly. As her father, he can easily get to know this but minted, he never entered in her matters.

Anna took a deep breath and replied, "I'm waiting for someone's call. I just want that person to call me and give me all the details that I want. My next move will depend on the details and information that I received now.." Anna replied which made Liam wonder if his daughter will be able to manage everything on her own or not.

"Are you sure that you will be able to take revenge on your own, Anna? It is a difficult road, to begin with, and I don't want you to be hurt like before." Although Liam maintained his cold exposure outside, from the inside, he was hurt as well.

All the things which should have been done by him as Seb's father were being done by Seb's sister, who herself is a child.

Anna chuckled after hearing his words because she felt her father was obviously joking at this crucial time...

"You should have thought about this before because this is the action time. No stepping back is allowed, even if I get hurt or die in this order!"
