Anna's mother was not willing to accept this cripple as her son-in-law. At any cost!
"Mom!" Anna was embarrassed about her mother's attitude. "You are exaggerating."
Anna was worried, what should sir and his family will think about her? Sir was already sad after Isabella and her family's betrayal. Now her mother also said these hard to bear things about him. Anna felt that she had no face to stay here anymore.
"I'm saying all this for your good." Anna's mother looked at her and said, "I'm glad that I'm here today. If I didn't come, you'll live a life with such a person. Anna are you blind?"
Jack Smith heard the quarrel and came inside. He tried to convince Daniel Taylor to not meet Anna's mother, but Daniel Taylor insisted. Now he had heard her mother's words, her each and every sentence was aimed at Mr. Taylor.
Jack Smith was about to die of anger.
And Anna was going to die with depression.
The food was served on the table but no one ate.
After listening to Anna's mother's cruel words Daniel and Daniel's parents had no appetite. And Anna's parents also didn't want to eat this meal.
As for Anna, she was even more depressed than anyone of them.
Anna's mother stood up and pulled Anna's arm, "you are going back with me."
Anna ran away from home. Her mother wasn't willing to let her go. Now she got the opportunity to take her back. Instead of letting her continue to tangle with the old and poor men here she decided to take her back.
Anna didn't want to go back, but there were many people around them. She knew her mother's nature very well. She knew that her mother could speak more bad words and can do much more bad.
She just wanted her mother to leave so as not to let her say more harmful words. And there was no other choice than to go with her.
"I am going to drop my parents," she stood up and whispered.
But there was despair in her heart. She didn't know if she can come back again or not? Maybe she won't come back here and will never go to university. Maybe she will be forced to live a life as her mother wanted her to live!
