It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1744

"What the hell? Tiana is her own flesh and blood, that she carried in her own body for nine freaking months! She gave birth to her! Why is she so keen on marrying her off like that, sacrificing her daughter's happiness like that? I just can't believe it! What a monster that mother is!" Annie just couldn't believe it. She thought that this kind of thing only happened in the old days. She had no idea that parents would still do this to their children in these modern times. Annie's opinion of Sheena had sunk low and deep. How could these kinds of people still exist in this harmonious and supposedly civilized society?

"Yeah, I am also confused. It is hard to figure out what is going on in that crazy woman's head," Rain said in a tired voice. Just thinking of Tiana's plight was indeed very exhausting. He reached out to pull Annie in his arms. He just wanted the comfort of his dear wife's embrace. He could only handle so much and could not save the whole world. He must make peace with it.

"I understand. But you said that you didn't want anything to do with the Ke family, didn't you? So don't worry about it too much." Annie held Rain tightly in her arms. She was aware of how pressured and tired he must be. She wished that she could help him, but what could she do? She let out a silent sigh, feeling a bit helpless. She gently patted his back, trying to give him the comfort he deserved. Maybe in everyone else's eyes, Rain was a tough man who was not afraid of anything and could achieve anything. But Annie knew better. Even the toughest man had his weak moments. And she should be there for him whenever he needed her.

"Yeah. That's what I think too." Rain closed his eyes, slowly falling asleep in her arms.

As the wedding date approached and got closer, Rain started getting busier. He wanted to finish all his tasks in advance so he could focus on his wedding and finally and legitimately be with the woman of his dreams.

While Rain was busy working his ass off, Tiana was not that lucky. Her family found where she had run off to and forced her to go back home with them. The Ke family wouldn't let her out of her own room because they were afraid that she would run away again. They were really dead set on marrying her off to the CEO of the CM Company. It was almost like a cross between kidnapping and illegal detention. Rain knew about it but just couldn't do anything about it. He had researched for information about the CEO whom they wanted Tiana to marry. Yes, he was indeed wealthy, but he was not known to be a nice person. He was famous for sleeping around with different women and he looked down on people below him, treating them like trash. As expected, he was much too old for Tiana. Marrying him would certainly be a nightmare for her. Rain just couldn't let this happen.

"Let me out, mom! Cyrus, do you want me to marry someone who is much older than you? My brother, please open the door!" Tiana shouted helplessly in her room which was at the top floor of the Ke family's big house. But her cries and pleas fell on deaf ears. There was hardly anyone who came near her door.

"Hannah, you are a woman too! You should understand! Do you really want to see me live a miserable life?" Tiana knew that she couldn't run away forever. But she just didn't think that her family would be this merciless and vicious. They made every effort to search everywhere for her and when they finally found her they brought her back and locked her in her room. It pained her when she realized that they had no second thoughts doing such a vile thing to her. She couldn't recognize her family anymore as they had become ruthless strangers who were only after the benefits that they'd get. They were really willing to sacrifice her happiness so that they could continue to live in comfort.
