At the mention of that period in their lives, Callum and Cade fell silent. There were too many incidents like that in their memories.

When they were born, Anna’s position in the Yard Family was still insecure and many were out to kill the three of them.

“How did you make your choice, Mom?” Cade asked.

She smiled bitterly.

“They wanted me to choose one and they were going to kill the other. Even if I saved one of you, I would have spent the rest of my life in grief and self-blame for the death of the other! They wanted to torment me and make me feel like I was better off dead!”

That kind and gentle gaze suddenly turned icy. “My choice… Tsk. I didn’t make a choice. Your father and I teamed up and shot the person who was going to kill you guys! Who were they to kill my child and make me suffer from the guilt afterward? They were the ones who deserved to die! Even if they were torn to pieces, they deserved it!”

Cade and Callum were shocked.

Anna glowered at the view before her. Hidden beneath that image of an honorable and delicate noble lady was a raging tyrannical soul.

Over the years, they killed countless relatives and children out of wedlock to secure the Yard Family for themselves. Their resolute mindset brought them to where they were today.

Standing on her thin diamond high heels, she slowly started to walk away. Before she left, she said, “I like that girl.”

 

Callum and Cade looked at each other as Anna walked off.

What did that mean?

 

Was she going to let the child go?
