One Wild Night

Chapter 412: Cousins?

There was absolutely no way all of this could be a coincident, was there? If it happened that Sara was indeed her aunty, then what did that make her and Harry? Cousins? Unbelievable!          

    

From the looks of things, she was now more involved in this than she had planned to. What was she going to do?      

After everything she had just learned about Sara, if there was one thing she didn't buy, it was the fact that she had lost the baby at birth and had buried the baby before Aaron got there. Something didn't add up to her, especially after hearing that Sara had gone to a different hospital to have their child in his absence.      

She suspected a foul play. What she needed to do right now was to find out why Jade had wanted that picture of Harry's mother, and who Jade had been telling Aaron about.     

"Do you mind if I take a picture of this?" She asked, and Aaron looked at her with a slight frown.     

"Why?"     

"I can't tell you why, Aaron. Not yet. And I don't want to lie to you either. However, I can promise that I won't cause any troubles for you. I just want to confirm something," she said, and Aaron looked at her for a moment before giving her a nod.     

Immediately, Lucy took out her phone and captured it, "Thank you," she said as she returned the photo frame to him.      

She was going to send the picture to Jade and find a way to get more information from Jade without revealing what she already knew. The less the number of people that knew about this, the better for Aaron and Harry.

"So, when are you going to tell Harry about it?" She asked, and Aaron's heart skipped a beat.     

"I have to do it soon, don't I?" Aaron asked, and Lucy gave him a nod.      

"You realize that I'm going to have to tell Tom about this, right?" She asked, and Aaron gave her a nod.      

"For what it's worth, I don't think you did anything wrong. You did your best to protect your son from the harsh reality of life. You hid your pain from him and bore it all on your own for so long. Harry should be proud of you, and grateful to you," Lucy said, and Aaron smiled.      

"Promise me that you and Tom would stand by him if things become very difficult for him and he asks me to leave," Aaron said, and Lucy shook her head.      

"Harry won't ask you to leave. And even if for any reason you leave, I will take your side and try my best to make Harry see reason," Lucy promised.     

"Can you give me until Monday? I'd like to at least spend this weekend with him normally," Aaron pleaded, and Lucy gave him a nod.     

"If that is what you want, then you can do so. You don't have to worry about me. Harry won't hear it from either me or Tom. It's not in our place to tell him. I just want you to tell him before things get out of hand and Sara approaches him first. Then it will be your word against hers," Lucy said, and Aaron gave her a nod.     

"I think I should meet with Sara and find out what she wants from him before telling Harry about her. I know Sara, she is a very selfish person and I'm sure she came back because she wants something. What do you think?" Aaron asked, and Lucy pursed her lips for a moment as she gave it some thought.     

"Is she in Ludus at the moment?"      

"I don't know. I was going to give her a call to find out when we can meet," Aaron said, and Lucy contemplated it for a moment.     

"Let's do so now. I will come with you," she said, and Aaron gave her a nod.     

"Alright. Can I use your phone? I sort of damaged mine yesterday and haven't found time to fix it," he said, and Lucy handed her phone to him.      

"You know her number offhand?" She asked when Aaron started dialing it on her phone.     

"She called so much in the last couple of weeks that it stuck," he said, and Lucy watched him as he raised the phone to his ear.     

Away from there, Sara who had just gotten off the plane and was in a car, headed for I-Global, glanced at her assistant when her phone started ringing, "It's a strange number," the assistant informed her.     

"Take the call," she ordered and watched as her assistant received the call.          

    

She received the call, "Good morning, This is Sara Walker's line, Emma speaking, how may I help you?"      

"Put Sara on the line. Tell her it's Aaron," Aaron said, and immediately Sara's assistant passed the phone to her.

"It's Aaron," she said, knowing he was an important person but not exactly knowing his relationship with Sara.     

Sara smirked as she raised the phone to her ear, "I thought you were avoiding my calls. I was just on my way to Harry's office to meet with him," she said, and Aaron's heart skipped a beat as he turned to Lucy who was watching him curiously.     

"What is she saying?" Lucy mouthed to him, and he placed the call on speaker so she could hear what Sara was saying.      

"Let's meet," Aaron offered, trying not to sound as panicked as he actually felt.     

"I don't have the time to meet with you when it's Harry I'm here to see," Sara said smugly.     

"Do you honestly think that Harry is going to grant you audience or listen to whatever you have to say when he believes his mother is dead? No matter what you believe you're going to need me. Meet with me and let's talk about the right way to go about this or you can forget about it," Aaron said, and Sara pursed her lips as she glanced at her wristwatch.     

"I don't have much time to waste here. My assistant will text you the location to meet me. You have until thirty minutes to get there else I'm going to go to Harry myself and you will have no choice than to tell him who I am," She threatened before hanging up.      

"Find somewhere convenient for a formal meeting and text him the address," she ordered told her assistant.      

Aaron on the other hand glanced at Lucy as he returned the phone to her and rose from his seat, "I need to shower and get dressed," he said, but Lucy only sighed as she watched him walk away.      

It wasn't difficult to see that Sara was a self-centered bitch. She felt sorry for her mother who had shared a womb with someone like that, and she felt even more sorry for Harry who was unfortunate enough to have someone like that birth to him.      

She needed to get some answers for Aaron and Harry before Aaron would tell Harry about his mother. She was going to first give her mom a call to find out her sister's name and show her Sara's picture for confirmation. Once she was certain that Sara was her aunty, she would have to ask Tom to find out what truly happened to Sara's baby girl.      

Although, she would hate to adopt the Hank family approach in finding out the truth, but that would be the only way to go about if truly Sara was her aunty.      

Aaron deserved to know the truth about what had happened to his daughter and have closure. And maybe the truth about what happened would also help Aaron fight against Sara if she tried to play dirty. Lucy reasoned with a sigh as she dialed Janet's line.
