Chapter 83 - Broken Trust

Everyone's at the hospital, while Flora was taken to the police station. She is not allowed to meet his son until she confesses everything.

Sarah is sitting on a bench beside Cally and Lisa, in front of an operation theatre waiting for Jeremy's to come out and inform them about his health. Here Emma is roaming around the whole corridor as she is worried. Both Drake can Jeremy she can't afford to lose anyone of them. One is her brother and the other is her best friend.

In the silent atmosphere, someone comes running,

"Sarah!" Anna exclaims as she approaches her behind him is Ray.

Anna hugs Sarah wipes out her tears.

"I heard whatever happened, how's it going right now?" Her concern can be seen on her face.

Ray stood behind Anna his eyes wandering, searching for Lisa. When Sam else came there too.

As soon as he came Lisa stood up,

"Lisa!" Sam exclaimed and she hugged him tightly.

"Are you alright? Is Sarah alright? What happened outside the court?" He continuously kept asking questions.

Lisa sobbed as she managed to tell him the whole situation.

"Are...they both alright?" Sam asked.

Lisa nodded and said, "The doctor is still operating, Drake had a lot more wounds than we imagined. And Jeremy...he went unconscious even before arriving here."

"Wheres Niall?" Sam asked as he risks his eyes through the whole corridor.

"He is with Flora, he was coming with us but then...he decided to talk to her for a moment."

Sam went towards Emma as he made Lisa sit,

"Hey, Emma..." He slightly whispered and kept is hand on her shoulder. Emma hugged him.

Her silent sobs could tell how painful she was inside right now. Sam rubbed her back slightly,

"It'll alright, nothing's gonna happen to both of them. They will survive through this, don't you worry."

Hannah on the other hand tried to calm Merylin who hasn't uttered a single word since she came to the hospital...

******

It's been almost twenty minutes since Niall has been staring at his mother, Flora, while she has been looking down at her interlocked fingers lying in her lap.

He sighed and she looked up through her lashes,

"I...don't know from where should I ask. It just seems a nightmare and I wish I could wake up as soon as possible." He scoffed slightly.

"Niall I-"

"You...were the one I trusted the most, more than my father, my own brother." He said and Flora looked up at him.

"Yeah, you know when it was the first time I started hating him?"

"When we were quite young he once said, that you kicked my mother out and that he hates you for that."

"I hated him since then, cause in my eyes you were an angel. An angel who came to look after me and dad after my mom left me. Neither did that little Niall knew how much you hate him, nor he ever tried to think about what Drake said."

He looked down and once again at Flora,

"I don't know why you started hating me, you started holding grudges against me but- one thing I know is I always loved you, always trusted you with my whole heart."

"So for once and for all, please answer me honestly whatever I'm going to ask you. Will you?"

Flora slightly nodded as her eyes weren't able to look up and meet with those eyes who were still adoring him with his pure love.

"Were you...the reason why my mother left the house? Did you really drag her out?" He questioned.

Being a bit hesitant Flora still did what she had promised and so, she nodded slightly. Niall's eyes started to do flood gradually.

"Was it you who tried to kill Sarah two years ago?" He questioned in a low voice but this time she remained silent.

"She told me... that after the car crashed someone came to her, wearing heels. Sarah said as she called that person out for help but instead her head was smashed with a huge stone. Was that-" He gulped.

"That person you?"

After debating a while she nodded slightly. Tears again started to go there way down on Niall's cheek.

"Why did you hate me, mom? What I had done to make you hate me so much?"

"What did you wanted?"

"What made you harm...Sarah?!" He yelled as he stood up.

"The company for my son..." She looked up at him.

"I wanted to give him a secured future." Her eyes showed confidence which made Niall's heartache.

"Only if you had asked me for it once, I would've given everything for you. I would've never let you be a murderer, only if once...I would've sacrificed myself." He said and Flora's eyes got filled with the sudden realisation of guilt.

She lowered her eyes as she didn't know how to face this.

"You tried to make me a psychopath in front of the world? Only if...you'd asked me I would've had made myself go insane for you without hesitation. Cause...I trusted you, mom."

Before he could say anything anymore, the officer opened the door,

"Sir your time is up we need to interrogate her too."

Niall nodded as he kept looking at his mother,

"I hope your son, Drake becomes the CEO of the company once he recovers. Cause I...can't take it anymore." He stood up.

And before going out he turned toward her and she looks up back at him, "You were first...and last I ever trusted person. And now even if I want to trust anyone the way you've broken my trust will never let me. I can't trust anyone, I can't."

Flora wailed and Niall left her sitting there. Though his heart wanted to comfort her, his mind resisted. Her strong wails echoed in the whole interrogation room.

Niall walked towards John who stood up as he saw his son coming.

"You're alright son? What happened?" John asked as he saw Niall walking toward him while his eyes were red and wet.

"Let's go, dad, mom and Sarah are waiting..." He said and walked out of the police station.
