Chapter 7: My Mother's Return.
Bella in shock: Mom? Catherine: Yes, that's me. Were you surprised? Bella happily: Mom, I
missed you. You don't know what happened to us. Catherine: Yes, I know. Bella: Mom, what
should we do? I really don't know what to do? Bella ran to hug her mother, but Catherine
slapped her hard until she fell to the ground from the force of the slap. Catherine angrily: How
could you work as a maid for her? Don't you have any dignity? Bella in shock: How did you know
this? Catherine: I told you that I know everything, and this is thanks to the video that your
mistress sent me. Look at the video. You are being congratulated and beaten, and your dignity is
on the ground. How could you do this? Bella crying: Believe me, I was forced to do this, mom. Do
you really believe that your daughter would do this for no reason? Catherine: After everything
I've seen? Are you kidding? Okay, let's assume you have a reason, what is it? What makes you
destroy your life and humiliate your dignity and yourself? 9 Bella fearfully: Mom I can't tell you
this is dangerous please understand me Catherine very angrily: Okay then you have to take
responsibility for your silence and you must leave work from tomorrow. Bella: No I will never
leave work and I have my own reasons. Catherine: How dare you object to me Catherine raised
her hand to hit Bella again to stop her Talia and said: Mom please stop what are you doing?
Catherine: Let go of my hand you also have to re-educate you all again. Talia: Mom she says she
has her own reasons and if Bella said this then it means it's true. Catherine: Do you know who
she works for? Or how she is treated? Or even what will happen to her? I tried to protect you
from her all this time just to make my efforts go to waste so easily? Talia crying: Please forgive
us but Bella is my only sister and I trust her I know that you do all this for us but Bella does the
same thing and she will tell us at the right time shouldn't we think of a solution instead of
fighting? Catherine, stepping back: You know nothing at all and you don't know what awaits
you. I... Catherine entered the room and locked the door behind herself while Bella burst into
tears on the floor and Talia was crying and trying to comfort her sister at the same time. Bella:
I'm sorry, I'm sorry I have to do all this and I can't tell you why because you are in danger. Talia: I
understand you, I trust you but my mother is afraid for us and is trying to protect us and the
past that she sacrificed everything she had to protect us from has come back now and is
destroying everything in our lives. Bella: I know that but what can I do tell me? We have nothing
and we are in great danger and after all this you expect me to resign? Talia: Okay don't worry
everything will be fine. Bella: I wish my mother would tell me this now. Talia: Oh okay sad
princess it's time to sleep. Bella, faking a smile: Yes, it's really late.
