Chapter 616 - Someone He Knew
Mheera could feel that Hannah's heart was filled with hatred. The last time they talked, Hannah was still hesitating to hurt Zhen-Zhen and her baby. She didn't wish for anyone to die.
But now, everything has changed. Hannah was requesting her to kill Zhen-Zhen. Mheera had no reason to kill her unless she was the other person she was looking for.
"No, I can't do that," Mheera refused Hannah right away.
"But why? You already gave me a potion that killed her baby. So why can't you kill her now? Do they have any difference?" Hannah asked her exasperatedly.
"Hannah… What happened to you? You didn't sound like the Hannah I knew."
"I… I hated them. They ruined me. I lost everything because of them. I have… I have to do it." Hannah began to sob.
Mheera could only sigh helplessly.
"Hannah, where are you? I'm coming to you!"
"I'm at my place…"
"Okay. Calm down first. Wait for me. I'll go there."
Mheera hung up the phone as she got ready to meet Hannah in her house.
Unknown to them, Liam was listening to their conversation. Now, he really confirmed that someone was helping Hannah.
He waited outside the house, waiting for that person to come. He heard it. She was coming to see Hannah. He wondered whom Hannah was talking to from the other line.
"Hannah is beyond redemption now. How can she ask someone to kill Zhen-Zhen?! She didn't even feel a tiny bit of remorse for what she had done to her. She killed Zhen-Zhen's baby," Liam said through his gritted teeth.
He knew that it was wrong but Liam couldn't help but regret saving Hannah's life. She didn't want to stop. She was still plotting to hurt and kill Zhen-Zhen.
"I have to stop her. I need to know the person who is helping her. I will protect Zhen-Zhen."
Liam waited for the right time to come. He would confront the person who was helping Hannah. He would not allow someone to hurt Zhen-Zhen.
*****
After ten minutes, Mheera appeared inside Hannah's house. She could hear Hannah's whimpers and cries. She was in her room so Mheera had decided to enter the bedroom without knocking.
She saw Hannah sitting on her bed, hugging her knees while she was crying. She walked towards the bed and joined her.
Hannah looked up as she felt her presence. She immediately pounced on Mheera, hugging her.
Hannah told her everything that happened in the Davis Family Mansion including the reason why she did it.
Mheera could feel Hannah's pain. But there was a question in her mind right now.
Was it really Zhen-Zhen's fault that Hannah's life got ruined?
Hannah made her own choices. It was not entirely Zhen-Zhen's fault. But she was stubborn enough to put the blame on Zhen-Zhen for what was happening in her life right now.
If she hadn't confessed to Tristan, her relationship with Andrew would never get ruined. If she felt content with what she already had, she wouldn't try getting Tristan's love.
She became greedy. She made wrong choices. She took Andrew for granted. And now, she lost everything… the man who loved her unconditionally before… and her best friend. She lost Andrew and Tristan.
"Please… can you help me? I want to get revenge," Hannah begged her after telling Mheera everything.
"Hannah… I'm sorry. I can't do that. My answer is still the same."
"But she tried to kill me. She will come to me. She will kill me because her baby died. We need to kill her before she kills me. She might target you as well since you were the one who gave me the potion."
"I will protect you, Hannah. But killing her… I will not do that. If she targets me, I will fight her. But I can't kill her without valid reason. I hope you understand," Mheera tried to explain her side to Hannah.
"You need to rest now, Hannah. Sleep. I will watch over you. Forget about getting revenge. Losing her baby should be enough as part of your revenge," Mheera said, convincing Hannah to forget about getting her revenge.
Hannah fell silent, just clenching her fists. Mheera was her only hope but she refused to help her. In the end, she just lay down on her bed, turning her back on Mheera.
She was upset with her. She didn't want to help her.
Mheera could only shake her head. Hannah was asking her too much. She might be her friend now, but she would not kill for her.
'But I am wondering who that girl is. She was able to break the mind control spell. I guess she is really powerful. And who was the strong guy who saved Hannah?'
Mheera left Hannah's room for a while. She needed to think of a way how she could protect Hannah if ever she was not around.
Hannah had a point. If the baby died, the mother would come at her to get her revenge.
Mheera was still lost in her thoughts when someone grabbed her at the back. The lights were off in the living area so she didn't notice that someone was there.
She could feel a strong aura emanating from the person who was holding her right now. She wondered if this person was the witch Hannah was referring to.
'Did she come to kill Hannah?'
Mheera was preparing to cast a binding spell to restrict the person who was grabbing her shoulders when suddenly the person spoke up.
"Who are you? You were the one who gave those potions to Hannah, aren't you?" Liam had finally spoken.
Mheera froze on her spot the moment she heard that very familiar voice. She couldn't believe it. She was hearing his voice right now.
She was about to turn around when a circle of lights glowed on the floor where they were standing.
Liam used a dimension-hopping spell to teleport themselves. He needed to talk to this person far away from Hannah.
When they reached a secluded area, that was the time Liam turned her around to see her face. He was shocked the moment he recognized her.
"Mheera…?"
