Chapter 249: The Real Culprit
Ch-248
Eleanor kept the back of her hand on her mouth as she swallowed back her sob. Her mother experienced many things that any woman wouldn’t experience. Yet she was there cursing her and hating her.
She left her two children feeling guilty. Eleanor felt that her mother was stupid. If she had said the truth to her husband she wouldn’t have to go through this much suffering. They would have been a family of four. There wouldn’t have been any Anthony Thorne Hallard in their lives. If she thought about the things rationally, her mother was the root cause of their suffering knowingly or unknowingly.
Didn’t they say her mother was a smart woman? But why did she behave this stupidly? She wondered.
When she heard about losing the child and her health condition, she felt her pain. The thought of losing her child itself made Eleanor go crazy. But her mother lost her baby after carrying it for nine months. And the child was someone who could bring back her lost smiles and can clear her guilt. But she lost him.
She could feel her pain. Eleanor tried not to cry but the tears never stopped from her eyes. Her mother suffered too much. Maybe Eleanor’s curses were the reason for her suffering. Eleanor blamed herself for her mother’s suffering.
And for some reason, she was glad that it wasn’t Anthony who tried to kill Martin. Money can come and go but not life. But again, if it wasn’t Anthony then who was it that tried to kill Martin? Does that mean there was another enemy who tried to kill him? Apart from him who was the other enemy they had?
Before she could think further she heard her brother’s voice.
"Then who was the one who killed me?" Martin asked.
This was the question that was bugging him. Even though Martin knew Anthony tried to kill him and all the pieces of evidence pointed to him, he didn’t believe him. Because on the day of his accident he saw a man along with the driver through his blurry eyes. The moment he saw Anthony he realized he was being played.
