The Law of Attraction

Chapter 665: Heartache

At Cha Mansion

Everyone was surprised by? Daryl and Kenzie's early arrival at Cha's mansion.

"Oh, you didn't inform us but nevertheless I'm glad about this surprise," Marcus commented as he welcomed the two to join them for breakfast.

"Won't it be a convenience? I mean for your father… Usually, they won't allow their daughters to leave the house, especially when she is an heiress…" Karen commented, trying to sound casual but Kenzie knew where she was coming from.

"He is the one who actually told me to live here and take care of my father-in-law and Daryl. He is very understanding so I'm grateful. Besides, I really want to spend more time with Daryl's family," Kenzie said with a bright smile.

The breakfast went well and as usual Harry and his mother left early for work. Marcus walked Daryl and Kenzie to their room and there Daryl talked to his father.

"You're being poisoned slowly, Father, and no matter what you say now nothing will stop me from doing what is needed. Right now, I will replace every personnel in this mansion and just retain those I intentionally put inside to spy and look after you," Daryl added.

His father's face was pale and Daryl knew he was too shocked by the information that Daryl had just imparted. He was aware how much his father loved Karen almost to the point that he had chosen Karen over Daryl and his mother. It was very painful but he was still his father and Daryl would not let him die at the hands of a poisonous woman who in all these years was only deceiving him for money and power.

"Don't you dare say that she is a good person and loves you because what she loves is not you but your name, power, and money. I have enough evidence to prove her guilty. I'm not just telling? you all of this to ask for your permission or whatever but to simply inform you of this matter before I proceed further." Daryl pointed out.

Kenzie silently sighed as she listened to the conversation between father and son. She could tell how hurt Daryl's father was and she signaled Daryl to leave and that she would handle the situation and atmosphere in the room.

Daryl did as she asked and Kenzie sat down beside her father-in-law and grabbed his hand.

She heaved a sigh before she expressed her own opinion on the matter. She spoke in a low tone, "Daryl has left Father. Please don't mind me and let your feelings out. I do understand how hard it must be for you to hear the truth but please trust Daryl in this matter because he only wants what is good for you. He will not let you get harmed in any way.

If he didn't care, wouldn't it be easy for him to stay quiet and just live how he used to, by himself? You know he does not need your company because he has his own career and he is successful on his own. Not to mention that as his wife, I can always back him up. He can always choose not to return here Father."

"I know dear and I feel really ashamed as a father towards him. But still, I can't believe Karen will do this to me. It hurts," Daryl's father whispered as he finally burst into tears.

Kenzie felt bad and lent her father-in-law her shoulder to cry on. She gently stroked his back, hoping it somehow could help to ease the pain. Karen was a devil in disguise. How could the woman, whom Daryl's father genuinely gave his heart to, be this cruel to the old man, especially when Daryl's father had showered her with love and trust all these years?

She was burning in anger but she was also at peace now, knowing that Karen would now face her doom without seeing it coming towards her. She and Daryl were not sure though if Harry was involved since they had no evidence against him just yet. But they were sure that Harry would not stand idle and just watch her mother go to prison.

"Tell Daryl that I will stay silent and will not do anything to protect Karen. I will listen to the two of you," Marcus said after a moment and soon his turbulent emotions calmed down. It was a very painful truth but he had to stay strong.

"Heaven is probably punishing me now. I deserve all this pain after what I've done to Daryl's mother and my own son." Marcus whispered. This was all his karma and he deserved it.

"Hmm, God just wants you to open your eyes Father. We all make mistakes but it's not too late to rectify the wrong and learn from the mistakes that will make us stronger and give us wisdom about how to handle things in the future," Kenzie commented.

Marcus managed a smile on his face and said, "My son is indeed a lucky man to have a wife like you by his side. He deserves to be a happy man and to have a happy family. Thank you Kenzie for being there for him and supporting him."

"I love him, Father and I am committed to Daryl. I will stick with him up to the end of our lives whether in good or bad times," Kenzie commented. She was still ecstatic and in bliss since last night when Daryl told her for the first time vocally expressing 'I love you very much'.

It was the best night of her life, hearing those words she had longed for and finally, he had told her last night.

She heard her father-in-law heave a long sigh and with a contented smile once again thanked her. Kenzie felt bad and really sad for him because his eyes were in despair and both she and Daryl could not do anything about his heartache. She only hoped for her father-in-law to heal in that heartache soon.
