Chapter 23 - CHP 21:FORGIVENESS

Inside the study room of Marco

The atmosphere inside the study room was a very suffocating.

Marco was sitting in his sit while Dominic and Sara were sitting in the sofa and adjacent to that was Elle who had stretched his legs and sat in the comfy sofa, his headache had subsidized a little.

Freya who was standing near the transparent window with her hands were folded behind looking outside the glass.

She didn't want to be here today but her grandpa insisted her so she had no other choice. She continued zoning out in order to block whatever her grandpa was saying.

Marco who looked at the people in front him, he didn't know how to start. He first looked at the 3 people and then Freya who looked like she didn't care.

He knew that he forced her to come yet he had no other choice.

Marco cleared his throat in order for the people to notice him, he stared at Lan who was also knew what they were thinking.

"Dominic and Sara im getting old now I want to live the rest of my life with everyone and I hope this

last wish could be fulfilled."

Dominic and Sara knew that they cannot anymore this matter.

"I agree dad we will listen to whatever you want to say"

Dom looked towards the direction of Freya who was showing their back to them.

Elle and Sara nodded their head thinking that they were positive about this opinion

Only Freya who was not saying anything.

Silence enveloped the whole room.

Marco looked at his granddaughter waiting for her decision it made him nervous of what will be her decision, he had told her that he will not force his decisions upon her but he couldn't help but gain some pity so that she can change her mind.

Just than the ringing of phone was heard everybody looked at the person whose phone was ringing

Yup it was none other than Freya

Freya who was dazed suddenly became alert due to the ringing of phone. she pulled out her phone and saw the id her face darkened

'private number'

She looked up from the screen and saw the people looking at her, she rejected the call and looked towards her grandpa and said

"Grandpa I told you before this and im telling you now that im not interested in being a part of Coleman, I want to continue my life like now I hope you can understand my words and please grandpa don't even think that I will change my mind"

Marco and everybody had heard Freya speaking. Her words were cold but soft to her grandpa who she respected a lot as for the other people she didn't even glance at them.

When the trio heard her words, they were blanked their expression didn't show any anxiousness but inside they were nervous

At that time Dominic said

"Freya im sorry I know what we did...."

Before Dominic could finish saying he was stopped by Freya

"you don't have the right to talk to me and I made myself clear 7 years ago that I have no relationship to you'll except for blood and nothing"

When Freya said those words, his heart was petrified

"Freya that's your father you are talking to don't you know how to respect your elders"

Sara said she knew Freya was angry at them but she couldn't disrespect her father. And more of all

he did because of her so felt that it was wrong to be angry at her father

"Freya this all happened because of me so don't be angry with you dad and brother they wanted to be there for you but because of me…."

Sara said crying her eyes when Dom saw this, he quickly pulled Sara in his embrace

Elle who was quiet and listening to the words of his parents and sister

"Freya that was not mistake your ,you had to see from our point of view to you should know that what kind of life we spent when you were kidnapped. Mums health declined because we were not able to find you; Freya just forgive it was hard for us too. At least talk to us for the sake of the same blood flowing through us"

"or a parent who gave birth to you"

Dominic said "I know you resent us for not finding you when you were kidnapped it was all my fault you suffered, just don't be angry at your mom please Freya that's your mom she has not been in a good health. And you also suffered im sorry please forgive me"

Freya who listened to the words said by her father and brother

"suffered you say..." than she looked at them and told her grandpa

"hahaha I kind of feel that I made you'll suffer because of me than again after 7 years I have to say sorry like every time even though I didn't do anything

"than Mr. and Mrs Coleman im truly sorry "

"but keep the one thing in mind I don't have a dad who left me when I needed him the most and a brother who never ever tried talking to me after I returned"

"when I kidnapped, I thought everyday yes! Today someone will rescue me but what I got in return was nothing. A parent who treated their own biological daughter inferior to others. the thing happened to me I never wanted to return to Coleman but I still had that tiny hope at least I will be able to see my family"

"family ... was something I longed for; I wanted the warmth but what did I get

. schemed by my adopted sister, as for my parents my dad was busy looking after my mother and business that he forgot he still had a daughter"

Freya looked at her mother who was crying in her father's arms "mother I don't know what to say to her. when she looks at me, she reacts as if seen a monster …"

With that Freya turned towards her grandpa and said

"grandpa about the thing you said before I don't want to and had said this before too, I don't need a family who don't trust me and I had severed my relationship with them a long back. If after the kidnapping I had not thought of coming then today for Freya Coleman had been died a long back ,its just that my wishful thinking that I had due to my naivety that my family will treat me the same when I return back after so many years ,,,, its just hard for me grandpa and you know how terrible will be for me as you are the only person I have and who raised me I cannot comply to your wish this time .im sorry"

Freya looked at her grandpa and apologized she knew he will be hurt by this but she cannot or couldn't do it.family was the scar she had which will remain forever with her ,it just that she doesn't want to forgive them but it took them a long time to think that this that they still had a daughter and she already given up on this idea.

Marco knew a long back that Freya had no emotions for her parents and brother. She sighed closed his eyes and remained silent

Seeing his father is not saying anything Dominic looked at his daughter who was stubborn as him and said

"Freya just us a chance but please listen to our explanation Freya I know what I dd to you was wrong but still I hope one day you can forgive us; I had no choice back than"

Freya didn't say anything she pulled out her cap wore it and walked towards the door to exit

"it's just that I don't want to give a chance of having a family but sorry you'll are too late"

Just than Marco stopped Freya and said

"Freya, I know you don't like to hear this but I want you to be present tomorrow evening in the banquet and it's my order ''

Order means Freya has to obey

Initially she didn't want to attend any of the banquets as she liked to be free and silence it was the thing, she loved the most 'SILENCE'

"but grandpa you know my condition well and I hope you will still follow it bye and I'll be there don't

disturb me more"

Without waiting for a reply Freya turned and walked out and Elle following her
