Chapter 174

Tears streamed down Nurse Grey's eyes, and she remembered all the events that happened in the past. Memories that she had forgotten long ago.

She remembered Mrs. Emily Williams. She knew it was her best friend even though she couldn't recognise her.

She remembers Sarah, and she knew that she was the same age as the girl she had given birth to, but she knew Sarah wasn't hers.

She wondered where her daughter, whom she had named Elena, was now. Was she happy growing up with Emily and Williams? Is she safe right now? Did she ever think who her mother was?

She looked down at her old hands, wrinkled from so many years of serving. Hands that carried multiple newborns but barely held hers.

She remembered the day she gave Elena up. Even though she never wanted to, that was the odd choice she has left because Williams mother had been following her and threatening to kill Elena since she disobeyed her orders.

She cried even more because she didn't want to reveal her identity, but she wished she could set her eyes on her daughter once more. Now fate had brought them back together.

Nurse Grey sobbed continuously. Her body shook, and her eyes were puffy. She wished she could see Elena’s face. She wondered what Elena looked like right now.

She knew she wouldn't be accepted by her daughter because she abandoned her when she was a little child, but she just wanted the best for her. She wanted her daughter to have everything in the world and never lack.

She sat in the closet for a while and thought about all that had happened. She wiped her tears, and then her name was announced. She hurriedly walked out into the hallway.

Emily Williams was also walking in the hallways holding two cups of coffee when Anna bumped into her.

Emily had a disgusting look. “Hey, watch it,” she spoke.

“I'm so sorry,” she spoke and walked away. She walked into Doctor Thompson’s office.

“I was asked to be here, Dr. Thompson,” she said.

“Yes, Mrs. Grey, I need you to check Mr. Williams's vitals. We need to prepare him and run some extra tests. Things don't look so good,” he said.

Anna’s heart skipped a beat; she didn't want to go in there anymore since Williams had recognised her. She didn't want things to get awkward. She stood there, lost in thought.

“Mrs Grey?” Dr. Thompson called,

Anna snapped back to reality, “Yes, doctor. I will do that right away,” she said and walked out of the room. She walked to the hallways, heading for Mr. Williams's ward, and it felt as if the ground should open up and swallow her.

She slowly swung the door. Mr. . Williams was lying on the bed, and there was nobody in the room. His facial expression softened when he set his eyes on Anna.

He watched her as she checked the monitor and the drip. He was becoming emotional, and he didn't know what to say to her anymore.

After checking the drip, Anna slowly pulled away when Williams held her hand. "Anna,” he called.

She gazed at him for a few minutes, and there was silence in the room. She tried to pull away from his grip, but he held her firm.

“Anna, please. Can I have a word with you?” he asked.

“What do you want from me?” she asked.

His eyes landed on her name tag again when he read out the name. “Mrs. Grey, Anna, did you get married?” he asked.

Immediately, the door was swung open, and Emily walked into the room. She was stunned to see Williams holding the nurse’s hands, and Anna pulled away immediately.

Penelope returned to the mansion after her short life. She had visited the countryside to be with her family. She also visited Marina’s family, and they were all right.

She says in her bed as she thinks about everything. She thought about the beautiful mansion Marina had bought for her family before her disappearance, which always made her wonder what exactly was going on.

Her eyes darted around the room. She remembered the last night she set her eyes on Marina. How Marina was in a haste to run away and how she gave Penelope some stuff to keep for her.

Penelope reached for her room door and turned the lock. She walked back to her closet and searched for the little box.

She kept it on the tables, and she unlocked it. She was shocked to see a bundle of dollars, some photos of Sarah, and some recording tapes.

Her eyes widened when she went through the picture. It was Sarah with some me dressed in black and also Sarah with a gun.

Her mouth opened widely as she used her hand to cover her mouth. “What are these?” she asked, narrowing her eyes.

She closed her window curtains and connected the radio. She listened to all of the voice notes, and her mouth wouldn't close.

She was so surprised that Marina had such good information on Sarah.

“These were evidence that Sarah had been behind all of the misfortunes of Miss Elena. I never knew I had something dangerous with me. Why hasn't Marina returned in 5 years? Did she start a new life?

Marina thought to herself. She wondered what to do with such heavy evidence because she knew that she would be risking her life.

“I think I need to show this to Mr. Nicklaus. He is brave and wouldn't mention to anyone that I was the person who gave him this. He needs to know who he got married to after Elena,”
