Chapter 42: he&##x27;ll help

Daniel

"And when the right time arrived with the help of Julia, I ran from there with Esha, I took the flight of Us
to collect all the documents of me being an Indian so I can come here. I was in my Us home and was
about to leave from there as well when I received a voice message from Marcello on my landline no.
He threatened me that he will kill Esha and Me both as he has already, " She paused, inhaling a breath,
and then continued, " He has already killed Julia for helping me escape, knowing this I can't go back to
my home city Mumbai, I would be alone and he can easily find me there so I tried to find Karan's
contact no. "

"But instead you found mine and asked me to inform this, Karan, because he lives in Jodhpur and can
help you and Esha get through this, " I finished for her.

She nodded, adding, "I was wrong he will never help me, I am sure, he will never even wanna see my
face, and Marcello will kill us, he is the main reason behind these scars, " She points at her neck and
shoulder, allowing me to see red dry wounds on them.

I shook my head, sitting beside her, "If I know my best friend well, then don't worry, he won't help you
but surely he will help his daughter and come on, we are in fucking India that too in Jodhpur, Karan is
the prince of this city, most people hear his orders and rules so does the government itself. Doesn't
matter how big gangsta that bastard Marcello is, he can't touch you while you are here," I stated,
confidently, giving her some strong hopes.

"But for that, we need to talk to Karan, and he's not here with you is enough to confirm that he ain't
gonna help any time soon, " She said, gulping the lump in her throat, trying not to burst out in tears.

I put my hand on her shoulder, " Because he is not aware that he has been blessed with a little angel,
and I know Karan can do anything to save what's his."



She looks up at me with hopes, "Then do something, Danny, I don't want Esha to have the same faith
as mine, I want to give her the best life possible, "

"Right. I am going to Karan's house right now to visit his mother, I will try to talk to him there once
again, " Even knowing, after this second talk he is either gonna break our fucking 11 years of friendship
or he will do anything to protect them.

"Thanks, Danny, I don't know how to thank you enough, " she says, hugging me as I wrapped my
hands around her.

"A brother can at least do this for his sister, "

She glanced at me, nodding.

Karan

We come back home as I slowly helped Mom to relax on the bed to take a rest, ordering Adah to bring
some soup and juice for Mom.

"Karan, how many times should I tell you that I am okay now, I don't want too much rest, " She retorted,
exhausted.

I shook my head, "No, Maa, your health says everything, if you have taken rest and meds at the proper
time, I wouldn't have been forcing you now,"

She sighed in surrender, "No use to taunt me, Son, it's too late already, "

I felt my heart thumped the moment she let out those words, " It's never too late, Mother, we still have
hope left, " I said, she instantly shoot me a look.



"What is it?"

"A surgery, I talked to your doctor he said the special surgeon Dr. Patel is going to visit India soon so I
told him to make an appointment with him for you, " I finished and she was about to deny my idea when
I stopped her, "Please, Maa, do it for us, I can't afford to lose you, you are my life, "

"You are blackmailing me, Karan, " She says, sadly.

"C'mon, Maa, you are Thakurain aka the Queen and you're super strong and the surgery will help you
to fight this battle, " I tried to make her understand, she thought for a few minutes before speaking.

"If that's what your wish, " My eyes flicker in the hope that she is almost convinced, "I am ready for this,
"

I smiled, taking her in the embrace, "Thanks for understanding, Maa, "

We broke the hug when we heard someone coming, "I am sorry, I better not intervene in Mother-Son
love." Adah said and was about to go when we stopped her.

"Adah, we are done, come inside, dear, " Mom told her, she nodded placing the tray on the small table
near the bed.

"Here's your soup, " She says, handing her the bowl.

"Am I allowed?"

My jaw clutched and my body stiffened on her voice.

"Yes, Yes, Rhea, you don't need to ask my permission, " Mom allowed her, she smiled at her, walking
towards her while tapping her heels on the floor.



I felt Adah's hand on my shoulder, calming me, I sighed deeply, trying to control my emotions.

"I think I do need your permission because I am everything except for your daughter, " She says as
Mom meets her gazes in puzzlement.

"What do you mean?" Mom asked.

"You didn't invite me to Karan's wedding, it's fine, I had no idea about his reception before Adah invited
me, it's fine too, but this is not okay, your health is getting worse and no one care to tell me?!" Mom's
expressions fall In pure guilt, "Thank God, I called Sunny, he told me everything or otherwise I would
have never known. Why everyone is treating me like an outsider?!"

Someone, please give her a Filmfare award for her acting and perfect dialogue delivery timing, in a
matter of seconds she trapped Mom in her fake drama and already made her feel guilty for the mistake
she has never committed.

"I am so sorry for that, Rhea, everything happened so hastily that we got no time to inform you, " Mom
says, sadly.

She fakes the sadness, saying, "Alright, But please make sure to tell me too, "

Mom gave her a weak smile.

And a knock on the door, interrupt us again, "A foreigner guy is waiting in the living room for Kunwar
sa, " A maid told us, taking my attention.

Foreigner…..

"What's his name?" I questioned, immediately getting up from my sit.

"Umm, he said Daniel something, " what the heck he is doing here?!
