Well Done, Dad
Sarah and Charles were shocked to see Aaron there. Lavanya and Eden were also surprised. Aaron went near Eden. “They were behind your parent’s accident.”
Eden furrowed his eyebrows. “How do you know about this? What was your relationship with my parents?”
Aaron smiled, placing his hand on Eden’s shoulder. “I am your maternal uncle, Eden. Your mom used to tie a bracelet called Rakhi on my wrist. It’s alright if you don’t remember me.”
“Yo…you are m…my uncle.” Eden wasn’t able to believe it. Lavanya smiled a little.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Aaron caressed his hair. “Yes, my son and I came to get you as soon as I got to know about your parent’s accident, but it was too late because Charles had already adopted you.” He looked at Charles with a piercing gaze.
“How do you know that they’re behind my parent’s accident?” Eden asked.
“The police stopped investigating this case thinking it was really an accident, but I knew it wasn’t an accident. I started my own investigation with the help of my detective friend, and somehow I found that Charles and Sarah were behind that accident. I went to report that to the police but they ignored it, and I wasn’t able to do anything at that time.” Aaron felt his throat becoming dry. He looked at Eden. “Then I thought, I should wait for you to grow up. You will bring justice to your parents.”
Eden held his head as it was a lot for him to take in. Lavanya held his shoulders to calm him. Eden assured her that he was fine and turned to Aaron. “Why didn’t you tell me about all this when we first met?”
“It’s because you shouldn’t have believed me at that time as they both took care of you after your parent’s accident.” Aaron took a deep breath. “I made a plan to take revenge by destroying their business which you gave them. I gave Charles the offer to partner with me in order to destroy his business later, but I needed a valid reason to break our partnership to make him think that I didn’t do it intentionally.”
Sarah and Charles were looking at him in anger now. Aaron looked at Lavanya, and then back at Eden. “Just then I got to know that you’re in a relationship and your girlfriend is studying in the same college as Gavin, so I told Gavin to harm Lavanya. I knew you wouldn’t stay silent after this and that was the reason I asked Gavin to attend your Annual Ball, and try to get close to Lavanya there which will anger you, and my plan worked because you punched him at the party.”
Aaron smiled a little. “I got the reason I was looking for. I broke the partnership with Charles, which led him to lose millions as other companies also terminated their contracts with him. I thought it was over there, but I got to know from someone that he has gone crazy after that and is trying to kill Lavanya because he thinks everything happened because of her.”
Aaron held Eden’s hand. Jaime had tears in her eyes. She wasn’t able to believe that her parents could do something like this. She went in front of Charles. “Dad, please tell me that this all is a lie. You didn’t do this. You can’t do this.”
Eden wasn’t able to see Jaime like this. He hugged her tightly while looking straight into Charles’ eyes. Aaron walked near Charles and Sarah. “Both of you, don’t dare to deny anything.”
Charles had already got to know that he will not be able to hide his crimes anymore as Eden knows everything. He started speaking. “I did it. I planned your parents’ accident Eden, because Sarah asked me for this. She wanted your father to marry her best friend, but your father was head over heels in love with your mother. Sarah wasn’t able to see them together. She convinced me to kill your mother, but it was an unlucky day because your father accompanied your mother that day which was unexpected by us.”
Eden took a deep breath, closing his eyes. “This is the reason for my parents’ accident. What reason you’ve for Lavanya’s attempt to kidnap and plan to kill her?” He hardly let out these words as it was hard for him to even think about it.
Sarah spoke this time. “I wanted you to marry Emily, but you were not interested in her. I let it go, but we suffered a huge loss in business because of Lavanya. That made us angry, and we started believing that she would make us lose everything, so we planned to kill her.”
Lavanya had tears in her eyes. Jaime released herself from Eden’s hold and started laughing, clapping her hands. “Well done, Dad. I always used to tell my friends that you’re my hero, but you don’t deserve this title.” She looked at Eden. “Brother, You can do whatever you want with them. Get them arrested or leave them.”
Jaime started leaving the room as it felt suffocating to her, but Sarah stopped her. “Jaime, we are your parents, and you’re our daughter. How can you leave us alone like this?”
“The people whom you killed were also someone’s parents, and the girl whom you tried to kidnap and planned to kill is also someone’s daughter.” Jaime left, without looking back at her parents. Ray ran after her.
Eden stood in front of them. “I won’t get you both arrested, but I am taking everything back I gave to you. That everything was a part of my dad’s hard work which I shared with you for Jaime, but now after knowing what you’ve done with my parents, I believe you don’t deserve to have a part of it. Leave my house.”
Charles and Sarah left the house feeling ashamed. Eden was really disturbed with everything that just happened. Lavanya hugged him. “You’ve to stay strong for us. Our babies and I need you the most.”
Aaron stood near them. Lavanya looked at him and smiled, breaking the hug. He placed his hand on her cheek. “I am sorry Lavanya. I did wrong with you when I asked Gavin to harm you. Trust me, I never intended to do that but I couldn’t think of any other way. I am sorry.”
“It’s Okay, uncle. You did it all with good intentions and most important, you did it for Eden and his parents. I am not angry.” She held Eden’s arm.
“I am sorry, sister-in-law.” Gavin held both his ears in front of Lavanya. She chuckled. “It’s alright.”
Gavin moved forward to hug Lavanya, but Eden stepped between them. “It looks like you’ve forgotten the punch you got at the party.”
“Woah brother, relax. It’s just a hug.” Gavin made an innocent face.
Eden smiled a little. “But she is my wife.” He caressed Lavanya’s cheek. “I will go and check on Jaime.”
She nodded, and he left the room. She asked Aaron and Gavin to sit.
Inside the room, Jaime was crying and Ray was trying to calm her. Eden went inside the room. He held her hands, sitting in front of her. He wiped her tears. “I want to tell you something.”
