Chapter 262 - Are they planning to kill me?

When Ron and Evie saw Mia talking to father Evans, they looked at each other and sighed. Only Evie had the patience and special overbearing techniques to pull out a healthy conversation with their father unlike them. 

Pushing her brother in the fronts Evie murmured, "You said you would help."

"Yes I said but not now. You know I am still having a thing with him regarding that matter and-"

Interrupting him, Evie snapper, "You are such a useless brother."

Ron frowned and murmured, "Hey, don't say that okay? I never said that I won't help you but at least don't expect me to try and butter dad up all of a sudden. You know how we don't talk for days when we have an angrument."

" Dad, why don't you think about it again? I mean I know that Edward is- anyway but the conclusion is that he loves Evie and Evie loves him. Who better than you knows about the strong feelings that Evie has for him? And even if you forcefully separate them, what about their future? Will Evie ever be happy in her life?" Mia tried very hard to state the facts and convince father Evans to give Edward and their relationship a chance. 

When Father Evans did not say anything, Mia was about to spill more wise words when suddenly Father Evans smiled and patted her head, "Child, why don't you knock some sense inside that stupid fiancé of yours too?"

Sticking her tongue out, Mia chuckled, "I am trying."

Seeing father Evans and Mia laughing and happily talking to each other, Edward frowned, "Are they planning to kill me?"

" What? Why will they plan to kill you? Don't they have anything else to do?" Ron snapped.

" I bet they are making fun of Ron." Evie murmured.

" Hey you-"

" Oh they are coming here." Edward exclaimed anxiously.

Stopping right in front of Evie and Edward, Father Evans kept on staring at them for quite some time.

"Dad-"

"Back then your father came looking for me." 

Edward fronwed and asked, "What?"

Grabbing Evie's hand, Father Evans tried to separate them but when Evie refused to let go Edwards hand, father Evans took a deep breath, "I see you have made up your mind to stay together but let me tell you one thing, it isn't like I am okay with this relationship but I am not against it as well. For my kid's happiness, I can sacrifice and deal with anything even if it is being in-laws with the Collins but will your father ever compromise?"

Edward frowned and asked, "I don't understand, I don't remember my father telling me anything about Evie, in fact we never even talked about it." Yes, though father Collins knew about his relationship with Evie but he never interfered or talked about it apart from mentioning it from time to time. 

"Five years ago, it was your father who came looking for me and told me about your relationship with Evie. He suggested that I should ask Evie to leave you otherwise he would get someone to her killed. Not that he can touch my daughter until I am alive but I didn't want to take chances. Anyway, my daughter is beautiful and young so I thought she would definitely find another man but-" father Evans sighed and continued, "Your father wanted Evie to leave you because he knew that you would never do it. Since it's your father who is silently creating a ruckus, I want you to look for him and solve this problem. After that you can come and look for my daughter."

Edwards expression darkened after hearing everything. He felt bad and disgusted with the fact that it was something related to him that they had to suffer for so many years and it wasn't Evies fault. 

" You are a smart boy so I don't think so I have to tell you what to do and how to make things right." After explaining himself, Father Evans turned towards his son, "And you, do not think that your situation is similar to that of Evies. What you are doing is very dangerous and you have to understand that. Either you detest Janet Brown and protect Silvia properly or you leave Silvia to die and keep being friends with Janet Brown. Remember one thing Ron, if Silvia Green dies during the competition, you have to kill yourself right there too." 

Patting Ron's shoulder, Father Evans sighed, "Don't forget that you've a responsibility towards Mia too. You can't stake your life or Silvia's life for unreasonable things." 

"I don't think so Janet will do anything like that. I met her today and she seemed nice." Mia tried to defend Janet because she knew how important Janet and Silvia were for Ron. 

" Even Sabrina Green and Matilda Brown were best friends but what happened? Things turned out to be super ugly. Don't let history repeat itself and stop it while you can. Silvia needs training and you have to take her away from here. There isn't much time left Ron, you have to understand."

Father Evans helplessly shook his head when Ron did not say anything. He knew how stubborn his son was but as a father, he had to stop him from doing something stupid which would harm him in the future. 

"I know what I am doing." Ron said in a very calm and firm voice leaving no room for negotiation or suggestions. No matter what father Evans says, he was not going to change his mind. 

" I'll take my leave then."

Tightening her grip around his hand, Evie pursed her lips and enquired.

Kissing her forehead, Edwards said with full determination, "I'll go and come back soon okay? And this time, no one will be able to separate us, I promise."

Letting go of his arm, Evie nodded her head, "I'll wait for you."

Giving father Evans a polite nod, Edward left.

….

Silvia and Kevin's apartment.

Placing her head on his right chest, Silvia was caressing the tattoo of her name also blowing it from time to time.

Seeing her like that, Kevin chuckled, "Will you stop worrying? It's not hurting at all."

"Stop lying, it's swollen and red."
