Chapter 205 - Shocking

Anne\'s cold hand gently touched Aaron\'s hand which was on his cheek. She lowered Aaron\'s hand from his face and gripped it tightly.

"What I said yesterday wasn\'t a lie, Aaron. I was not lying or making up a false excuse to reject you. I got married when I was very young, my marriage only lasted one year because my ex-husband had an affair with a woman I saved from the street. They did not only have an affair behind my back, but they openly showed their affection in front of me. Even all the servants in my ex-husband\'s house thought of me as another woman, not as the Madam they should respect.

It happened because my ex-husband only thought of me as a gold digger who only married him for his money. I\'m sorry I didn\'t tell you any of this and revealed everything only when we\'ve known each other for so long, Aaron. To be honest, I don\'t want to talk about this because I\'ve tried to forget everything in the past since the day I separated from my ex-husband. But since you said those things yesterday, I can\'t help but tell you everything, I don\'t want to keep any secrets from you.

That way, you will know who I am and you won\'t regret it if you want to be in a relationship with me. I\'m not lying, Aaron. I\'m being honest with you right now. And about the report you got at the civil registry office in Berlin, I also don\'t understand why my status is still single. But I believe this is my ex-husband\'s doing who didn\'t want our marital status to be published to the public. That\'s probably why he had kept my status as \'single\' at the civil registry office. That way, no one will know that we were ever married," Anne spoke at length honestly, her eyes looking straight at Aaron.

Aaron\'s face turned pale at the words that came out of Anne\'s mouth. Daniel, who was standing not far from both of them, did the same. He didn\'t even let out a single word when Anne explained everything like that. He never thought that Anne had been married before.

Anne let go of Aaron\'s hand which she was previously holding. "I never try to deceive anyone. I\'m so sorry, Aaron. I also can\'t force you not to hate widows anymore, especially after I heard your story. Everyone has the right to dislike other people\'s status, but I want to tell you one thing, Aaron. Not all widows are the same as the widow who had destroyed your family. You should not blame their status. You should blame the person, the individual who did that to you and your family.

You can\'t treat all widows as if they are all bad people. I\'m not trying to defend myself or make you stop hating widows anymore since I\'m also one of them. But please use your logic, Aaron. Even though there is one wild fish in the ocean, it doesn\'t mean that all fish are wild fish. You can\'t generalize everything like that, sorry if I\'ve been talking all this time. I didn\'t mean to teach you a lesson, Aaron," Anne spoke again at length, adding to her previous words.

Aaron, who didn\'t expect to hear all these words from Anne, looked very shocked. Even when he was so happy to find the information he got from the civil registry office in Berlin regarding Anne\'s status. Because he believed that such a large government agency could not possibly manipulate any data, let alone data about a person\'s status. If that happened, then the credibility of the public facilities office would be tarnished.

"Why didn\'t you tell me everything from the beginning, Anne?" Aaron asked quietly.

"It\'s not like I\'m trying to keep it to myself all this time, Aaron. I did not want to say anything before. After all, I was thinking of burying this story because I don\'t want to remember any of this. But since you came into my room the other day, I didn\'t have any choice other than to tell you everything. I don\'t want to start a relationship by keeping a secret. I\'d rather tell you the truth from the beginning than let you know from other people and make you think I\'m a liar for not telling you anything," Anne replied quietly, trying to explain why she only told all of these things now.

All of Aaron\'s hopes were instantly crushed when he heard Anne\'s confession. His intention to take Anne to his parents\' graves was to tell her why he hated widows so much and to make Anne end her joke claiming to be a widow. Because all this time, Aaron believed that Anne was only joking and wasn\'t serious about her words.

But after Anne started revealing all the stories from the beginning, Aaron couldn\'t help but believe her. Even though he was currently emotional and very disappointed, his common sense was still functioning well. Aaron knew that no one would want to claim to be a widow if she wasn\'t a widow. The reality was the opposite, many people who already got married would lie about it and tell people they were still single. With that in mind, Aaron was now convinced that Anne had been telling him the truth all this time.

Aaron, who seemed to be very disappointed, suddenly stepped into the path behind Anne. Slowly but surely he walked away from his parents\' grave. Seeing Aaron walk away without a sound made Daniel confused, he didn\'t know who to follow. Because he knew that Anne was afraid of being left alone in the cemetery. There was no way he would leave her alone. Meanwhile, Aaron was both his friend and boss.

When Daniel was confused like that, Anne suddenly spoke. "Follow him, Daniel. Go walk behind your Master," she said quietly.

"But Miss, what about you?" Daniel asked curtly.

"Of course I\'ll also go," Anne answered slowly, trying to be strong.

"Aren\'t you scared of..."

"I\'m fine Daniel, go after Aaron. I don\'t want you to get in trouble because of me," Anne cut Daniel\'s words quickly, even though Anne was very afraid of the cemetery but she didn\'t want Daniel to get in trouble because of her. Therefore, Anne asked Daniel to go after Aaron.

With guilt and confusion filling his heart, Daniel finally chose to go after Aaron. He patted Anne on the shoulder twice to ask Anne to leave the cemetery immediately. After Anne nodded her head slowly and said that she was going to leave the grave before Daniel left, she walked quickly after Aaron who was nowhere to be seen.

After Daniel left, the air in the tomb felt even more tense for Anne, but she tried to remain calm and not panic. She believed that there was still a God who would protect her. When she was about to walk away from the graves of Aaron\'s parents, Anne suddenly canceled her intention. She then stood up with a perfect figure and put her hands together on her chest while closing her eyes. Anne prayed for Aaron\'s parents to find peace by God\'s side. After finishing praying for Aaron\'s parents who she didn\'t even know, Anne then left the well-maintained area towards the exit where she had to pass through a row of damaged tombs.

"Please, protect me, Lord. Protect Your weak servant. Protect me Lord, please protect me," Anne muttered under her breath praying to God to the exit.

After fifteen minutes, Anne was finally able to get out of the cemetery area. Even when it was snowing, she was sweating profusely. Anne could not hide her fear at all, because she did not want to stay longer in the cemetery, she stepped back towards the highway which was quite far away. When Anne was walking alone on the bus stop, a black car stopped right in front of Anne.

Anne\'s pale lips curved into a relieved smile when she saw a very familiar figure getting out of the car. "Jackkk..."
