Few But True Kelly's POV

The anonymous message got me thinking hard about the sender of the message. Even before all this mess started, there was only one person who really helped me during the critical moments in my life. She made me realize what was wrong. She silently cared. She secretly helped. I can only think of one person who would send me such a message.

While unpacking, I ordered some food for lunch. I waited for only 15 minutes before someone rang the doorbell. The man, wearing a delivery uniform and carrying the food I ordered, shocked me. I didn't know. I'd see him again and I can see that he's also shocked after recognizing me.

"M-Miss Kelly..."

I looked outside to check if someone saw him. When saw no one, I grabbed his arm and immediately locked the door behind him.

"Luke!"

He blinked as he stared at my face.

"Mommy, hungry!" Snow came running to me hugging her doll.

Luke turned to her and his eyes widened in shock.

"Is this the food I ordered?" I asked, pointing at the paper bag he's carrying.

"Y-Yes, miss."

I nodded and grabbed the paper bag from him, "Wait here, I need to talk to you."

I carried Snow and brought her to the kitchen. I prepared her lunch and cupped her cheeks.

"Eat here, baby. I'll just pay for our food, okay?"

When I went back to the living area, Luke was roaming his eyes around. When our eyes met, he immediately looked down.

.ou're not working for the Andersons anymore?" I asked and sat on the couch.

He nodded and sat across from me. "I resigned four years ago, miss."

"Are you still in contact with them?"

He shook his head, still not looking at my face. "No, miss."

I took a deep sigh and rested my back on the couch. "Im hiding behind a fake identity, Luke. If you're still on my side, you won't tell anyone you saw here."

He lifted his face and finally looked into my eyes. "I swore my loyalty to you a long time ago, Miss Kelly. Even if someone threatens me with a knife against my heck, I would never betray you."
