Mommy, Where's Daddy? The Forsaken Daughter's Return
Chapter 75: Make You Suffer!

Winfield sensed his world crumbled after hearing Blake's words.

The woman he married as his second wife was apparently responsible for Sarah's disappearance!

At that point, all he could think about was hate. He hated himself and the woman who destroyed his family. Deep inside, he wondered, 'How could I ever tell Sarah?'

His emotions were conflicted, unable to find the right words to explain himself. For now, all he could do was to ease her pain. He remained to embrace his wife against his chest as she let out all her tears. Right after settling Sarah's emotions, he weakly said, "Sarah, I am sorry. I should I should have seen through this. This is my fault."

Sarah did not answer.

After all the crying she did that morning, her heart suddenly turned numb. She could also say the same about her husband. After all, she had long expressed how she did not like how Catherine was clearly attracted to Winfield.

However, right now, what was on her mind was her daughter. She wanted to see Samantha.

For seconds, she looked down at the floor before turning to Winfield. With a frail voice, she pleaded, "I want to see Sami. I want to see my daughter."

Winfield nodded and said, "We will get there... in two days. We just need to make a stop in the nearest military camp."

"Sarah, I need to take care of something and clear the passage before getting you out of here," said Winfield. "Stay with Hank for the meantime."

Referring to his most trusted lieutenant, Winfield ordered, "Hank, stay with my wife."

"Yes, Sir. Roger that," answered Hank.

Winfield grabbed Blake from the floor and placed cuffs on his wrists. Only then did he rush outside the door, letting Blake walk forward before him.

When more of his men came up to the second level, they reported, "The surrounding area has been secured, General."

"Good, take this prisoner and secure him. I have two people I need to find," said Winfield before handing Blake over.

To another soldier, he instructed, "Please take my wife to the chopper and wait for me until I come back."

"Yes, sir!"

One soldier followed him around as he scanned all the rooms on the second floor. After only finding maids, hiding in some rooms, he proceeded to the third-floor area.

Winfield kicked open each door as he walked past it, expecting to find the main culprit.

Distance away, he noticed one door open and someone was peeping right through it.

Catherine came out of the room, teary-eyed. She started walking towards Winfield and acted, "Winfield - you - you are here to save us?"

"Blake, he - he took us in this mansion and it was here that I met Sarah! She's alive, Winfield, it's terrible - Ahhh!" Before she could resume her thoughts, a loud slap went across her face. It made Annie also come out of the room and said, "Dad?"

Ignoring Annie, Winfield went straight to Catherine's neck, attempting to cut her air with his bare hands.

With eyes fuming in anger, Winfield told, "You! I could not believe you are such a witch! You had planned for Sarah to die! You did all this and broke my family apart!"

"Dad, no! No, please!" Annie cried, pleading to Winfield and trying to grab on his arms.

It granted for Winfield to glare at Annie and scream, "I am not your father! I never was!" S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

A loud gurgling sound could already be heard coming from Catherine. Her face was turning red from Winfield's hold as she was slowly laying down on the floor.

Her eyes were quivering, and her tongue was practically sticking out of her mouth!

Catherine would have died in Winfield's hands right then and there if not for the soldier behind the general, reminding him, "Sir, let her go, General! She best goes to prison than die!"

"Sir, let her go!" The soldier finally reached for Winfield's arms, allowing him to loosen his hold.

Catherine coughed as she gasped for air. She maintained to cry while turning away to face her daughter. The next thing she heard was Winfield's words, "You will be put behind bars and your schemes will be exposed to the entire country. Your daughter will suffer the same consequences as you, having silenced herself with your crimes!"

"No! No, Winfield! Please, Annie has nothing to do with this!" Catherine tried to reason.

"Dad, please! I am still your daughter! It was all mother! I can't be in prison - "

"But you must have known all along, and I will go through lengths to prove that!" Winfield countered, his hands were clenched into a fist, looking at the mother and daughter.

A clear disgust became painted on the general's face as he added, "Both of you represent the scars in my family's life that I wish to erase! And with every power in my hand, I will make it happen!"

Pointing his fingers at Annie and Catherine, Winfield screamed with his loudest voice, "Mark my word! I will make you suffer! I will make you experience hell as you rot behind bars!"

***

Ethan arrived home late in the evening of that same day. He went straight to the master bedroom, finding his wife pretending to sleep and facing the other side of the room.

He sighed as he sat next to her and asked, "Sam, are you still mad at me?"

Samantha expressed her dismay two days back, after learning he was aware of her father's secret operation. She had been giving Ethan the cold shoulders since.

Ethan caressed her cheek and said, "Honey, I am sorry. I did not mean to keep things from you, but trust me when I say, your father and I have reasons for not telling you upfront."

Samantha remained to stay silent, and while she acted to sleep, Ethan knew she was still awake. After all, as he and Edgar were still pulling up the driveway of the mansion, he received a message from Kenzie, asking him where he was.

Yes, Kenzie told on her Mommy. Her innocent self suggested to Ethan that Samantha was looking for him.

"But I have good news for you." Ethan leaned over and pecked on her cheek to say, "Your father is safe and he called earlier to inform me that he will be arriving tomorrow... and he has a surprise for you." "It's a very nice surprise. You'll need to prepare several boxes of tissue," Ethan revealed.

Only after his words did Samantha finally flickered her eyes open and she asked, "Why would Dad not call me to tell me this?"

Ethan sighed and answered, "Because, it's supposed to be a surprise."

As Samantha turned to face her husband, Ethan smirked and added, "I helped your father get this surprise for you, by the way."

A scoff left Samantha's lips. She said, "Really? So you were partly the reason why Dad left?"

It made Ethan frown. He took a deep breath and told, "You will understand later on and you will like this surprise."

Sitting up on the bed, Samantha probed, "Why would I like it if I need to bring two boxes of tissue?"

Ethan pushed back a strand of her hair behind her ear. He smiled and said, "Yes, you will cry, but trust me, you will like the surprise." Samantha's eyes narrowed. She asked, "You sure are confident I won't be upset anymore."

A hiss left Ethan's lips, and he announced, "Oh... you will love me more."

"Hah!" Samantha said in sarcasm. She raised, "You better be right, Mr. Wright, or you are sleeping alone on Christmas Eve!"

"On the contrary, I think you'll want to make love to me every night after learning of your surprise," Ethan answered confidently with a grin on his face.
