Mary and Christopher Lim (3)

Later that day, Mary was discharged from the hospital, she was still in shock, she has not eaten or slept for the next few days that passed. Christopher was already worried about his granddaughter, now he is also worried about his daughter who was already having a nervous breakdown.

A month already passed and they still could not find Margaret, and Mary's health has been deteriorating more and more, she has not eaten properly and has not slept soundly for such a long time, the doctor even warned that she might die due to the deterioration of her body. One day Mary called him "Father, promise me that you will never give Margaret to her father, he is the devil. Protect Margaret always, even when I am no longer here, you have to find her Father, you have to find her. I know deep in my heart that she is alive." then all of a sudden Mary stopped talking again and looked blankly in space.

Three months had passed, it was time to contact Mary, Lord Chen thought, but he never knew that she was already unstable due to the impact of all the things she had been through in his hands and losing her daughter too. So he made a call one night to the Lim family residence, "Mary, it's me. I have our daughter, if you still wish to see her, then you know where you need to go." then he hangs up the phone, leaving the trembling Mary on the other line.

She did not believe that Margaret was in his possession so she did not mind the call, she wanted to forget everything about him, all she wanted is to find her daughter and finally reunite with her. Lord Chen was maddened due to the stubbornness of the girl who still refused to cooperate, he only had one thing left to do, and that is to kill her child and send her the dead body, then he will see if she will not believe her still. His nanny knew about his plan, so she ran away with the child, she took the child and some of her earnings with her never to return again to her Master, she needs to protect the child no matter what the cost, she already knew what her Master did to this child's mother but she will not allow this child to suffer.

"Aaaaaaahhhhh!" find my nanny, get my child from her, or kill them both. If he is not going to have Mary, then no one will, so he sent a bloody cloth to the Lim residence with a tag "Look what you did to our child!", this was the message Mary got when she opened the box with a bloody cloth inside. She recognized the cloth, it was the one she had before she disappeared, Mary cried hysterically and this time she blamed herself for losing her baby. "My precious Margaret, wait for Mama, we will see each other again, then she downed all the sleeping pills inside the bottle."

"Mr. Lim, something happened to Miss Mary, please hurry and go home." he was already nervous the moment he received the phone call, he felt his heart being squeezed, he feared the worst to happen with his daughter, even if they had not found his granddaughter yet, he still have Mary. The moment he arrived at the Lim residence, he was stopped by the police, "Sir, it's best that you don't see the crime scene. We will take care of the body from here." the police calmly said. "What body, whose body, what are you talking about?! Where is Mary?!" the moment he called her name, a stretcher carrying a dead body, her hand fell down from the stretcher and from there he saw the heirloom ring that was passed from generation to generation from the Lim family, then everything went dark.

--at present--

He stopped himself from staring at the girl next to him, Mary, your daughter, I finally found her, she is as beautiful as you. "Doctor Son, Missus Son, thank you for accepting my invitation in joining me for breakfast." he then smiles sweetly to the couple. "Mr. Lim, please call me Stephen and call my is Margaret. Sweetheart, this gentleman is Mr. Christopher Lim." the moment he said the gentleman's full name, he just noticed that his wife and this man has the same last name, could this be a coincidence, he can't help but eye the man with doubt and concern for his wife.
