Chapter 225: Mom, Why?

"That’s why I don’t need you to lie to me," Angela said with a firm voice. "I could have handled this my own way, but I chose to tell you."

"Okay, so what do you all think?" Hiro asked, his eyes moving from one to another. "Here’s what I think. Marcus is planning to kidnap her. The black van and the men she saw must be his crew."

"That’s a heavy one. We can’t afford to have an enemy like that come after us," Taros muttered, rubbing his forehead in frustration. He shifted in his seat. "Marcus is Angela’s father. We can’t set father and daughter against each other. We should try to stop this and bring them together."

"True," Renn said with a sharp edge in his tone. "But don’t forget Grace and her brother. They treated Angela like trash. Are they not family too? And did that stop them from hurting her? They will do it again because they are wicked. We shouldn’t try to unite with people like that. Marcus may look sane, but he is worse. We can’t risk our mate’s safety for him."

"No one is forcing anything. If Angela doesn’t want to have anything to do with Marcus or his family, then she won’t. Not until she decides otherwise," Kaito said firmly.

"I prefer it that way," Hiro added quietly, taking a sip from his drink. He leaned against the wall, his mind racing with other possibilities.

"What about Hailey?" Alex asked suddenly. "I never liked her."

"Hell no. She won’t do that," Renn snapped, quick to defend his aunt. "Try another name."

"I agree with him," Taros nodded.

"I was thinking about Mr. Slade, also known as Dr. Dylan," Stales said slowly.

"Mr. Slade and Dr. Dylan are two different people," Kaito said as he rose from the bed. His words stunned them, and he could see the questions in their eyes. "It can’t be Mr. Slade. He’s under my custody."
