Chapter 677 - Confession

"Mother, this is Anya. What has happened to you...?" Anya bursted into tears as she looked at her mother from outside the glass window. She couldn't get close, she could only look at her from afar.

Anya banged on the glass, as if trying to wake her mother.

"Anya, your mother will be sad if you are like this," Indah approached her and hugged her to calm her down.

Anya was crying uncontrollably. She did not expect to see her mother in this condition again. She felt that her mother's life had been very hard and thought that she could finally live happily until the end of her life.

But reality said otherwise. Diana was lying back in this cold hospital bed.

"Forgive me. This is all my fault. I couldn't take good care of her..." Aiden said, blaming himself.

"What really happened? Mother was fine yesterday. Why is she like this now?" Anya's eyes turned red, not from tears, but from anger.

She hit Aiden hard repeatedly on the chest, annoyed that the man tried to hide Diana's condition from her.

She was her daughter! She had the right to know when something happened to her mother!

"Last night, someone broke into Aunt Diana's house and intended to kidnap her. While fighting those people, she fell from the second floor. She had broken bones in several places and hit her head," Raka immediately explained what had happened to Anya.

Anya cried again hearing that. "I shouldn't have let her live alone. I should have forced her to stay with me. This is all my fault. I was too focused on my children that I forgot about my mother," she said as she covered her face with her hands.

The more she thought about it, the more she blamed herself. She felt that she could not be a filial child to her mother. All this time, Diana had been struggling to raise her, but Anya couldn't even protect her.

She really was a useless child.

Aiden arranged two bodyguards to guard Diana's house. They took turns to guard at night. But no one thought that someone had such an evil intention and wanted to kidnap Diana.

Diana's house was surrounded by gardens and parks. The area was quite large and there were many trees and flowers, so it was quite difficult to watch over it.

Aiden also blamed himself for being too negligent in looking after Diana. He should have put more people there. But he prioritized his bodyguards to look after Anya and their children, not expecting anything to happen to Diana.

"Anya and your children are not in town so they cannot attack you. In the end, they chose to attack those closest to them. Yesterday, someone also followed us," said Galih.

Anya raised her head in surprise and went straight to them. "Are you okay?"

"We're okay. Our driver immediately knew someone was following us and ordered our bodyguard to take care of that person. I already reminded Diana to stay at your house for a while. But your mother doesn't want to because she wants to take care of the garden. Unexpectedly, something bad really happened," Indah felt sorry that she could not force Diana harder. If only she could make Diana move into Aiden's house…

"Who did it? Who hates me so much like this?" Anya bursted into tears.

Galih looked at Aiden and asked, "Aiden, this is not like you. Why did you take so long to find out who did all this?"

Aiden didn't answer. He was silent while looking at Indah.

It wasn't that he didn't know who did it, but he couldn't tell Galih and Indah. After all, the Srijaya Family was still Indah's family. Aiden cared for Indah because Indah was Anya's biological mother.

Indah realized the meaning of that look and immediately felt very angry, "Who did it? Is it my brother? Is it his wife? Jonathan couldn't possibly do this. Fany must have done it! I will see her right now!"

Galih immediately tried to calm down his wife. "Indah, calm down!"

"How can I be calm? Diana is lying in the hospital and it's all my fault. Fany repeatedly wanted to see me, but I always refused. She must be the one who wanted to harm Anya, and it must be that woman who hurt Diana like this!" Although gentle, Indah was a very sensitive woman. She was smart enough to understand the way people around her thought, especially her family whom she had known for a long time.

She knew well what Fany wanted.

"Is it true that Fany Srijaya hurt my mother?" Anya looked at Aiden, gripping Aiden's shirt tightly in her hand. "Tell me, is it true?"

"From the information I've gathered so far, she really did it," Aiden replied.

"Call the police. Get the police to arrest that woman right now! She hurt my mother!" Anya shouted hysterically.

Aiden held her hand and tried to calm her, worried that Anya would get hurt from being too emotional.

"Anya, let me take care of all this," Indah stroked Anya's back, trying to calm her down. "You stay here, don't leave your mother. Let me take care of this problem."

Anya shook her head weakly. "How can you take care of it? The culprit is your sister,"

"Anya, trust us. Even if your aunt did this herself, we won't just forgive her," Galih helped Indah to convince Anya. He did not want to lose her daughter's trust.

In this world, no one should hurt his daughter's heart. Not even their family members. Galih and Indah would definitely punish them!

Indah grasped Galih's hand and asked him to stop talking. She wanted to explain everything to Anya herself. 

"Anya, we also don't want something like this to happen to your mother. I am very grateful to her for raising you up to this point. To me, she is a savior for finding my lost daughter and raising her to be a good child. I owe your mother a lot. I will not be able to pay her back for it. I will never let anyone hurt Diana, and even if that person is my own family, I'll do what must be done. Trust in me, honey. I will take care of everything," Indah said, persuading her daughter gently.

Anya nodded and hugged her mother, sobbing. She really hoped that her father and mother could solve this problem with the Srijaya Family.

Aiden provided additional information to Galih as well as a video. The video contained the confession of a man.

Galih's face grew grim when he watched the video and learned about a hidden secret that had never been uncovered.

The man was one of the officers at the orphanage, where the kidnapped baby girls were kept. He admitted that he saw Fany Srijaya causing a fire to break out at the orphanage.

At that time, he hesitated between saving himself or helping the children. But his selfishness made him decide to run away.

The fire engulfed the entire orphanage quickly, killing all the baby girls there.

Over the years, he regretted his actions as a loser. He was truly sorry that he had fled from that place, doing nothing. If only he'd gotten inside, he could have saved at least a child or two.

At least, not all of those innocent children died.

He lived in regret for his foolishness and selfishness. Every time he returned to the orphanage, he saw a crazy woman looking for her daughter. The mad woman made him feel guilty and regretful of what he did.

The baby girls weren't the only victims of his selfishness, but also their parents.

A while ago, he found out that he didn't have much time left. His disease continued to eat away at his body and his life wouldn't last long. Finally, he decided to tell the truth about what happened, hoping that by admitting everything he could make his heart a little easier.

He hoped that after telling everything, he could die in peace.

Galih's hands trembled when he saw the video, unconsciously gripping the cell phone tightly. He was so angry. Very, very angry!

"At that time, my brother and his wife were never tired from trying to help me find Anya. I thought they really helped me sincerely so I could find my daughter. But look what they did! They even wanted to kill Anya!" Indah looked so furious after knowing what her own brother did to her.

Galih could only growl angrily. Not a single word could describe how angry he was at this moment.

Indah's eyes were flushed with anger, sadness and wrath. Over the years, she thought her family was helping her find her daughter. She knew that looking for her daughter required money and energy, so she felt grateful that her brother always helped her.

But she did not think that her brother was trying to find Anya because he wanted to kill her!

If Anya's grandmother hadn't found Anya at that time...

If Anya's grandmother wasn't selfish enough and decided to give Anya to the orphanage…

Maybe Anya wouldn't be able to live until now…

Indah gritted her teeth angrily and said, "I've had enough. It's time for them to pay for all their deeds. I'll settle everything. I will be right back."
