Chapter 100  Kim\'s Thoughts And Emotions

"How did you..? How were you able to get their identities so fast? Is this related to what I said about having a very bad feeling about things in the office? Who is their employer? And why did you allow them to walk free?" Kim shot a barrages of questions at Silas.

Silas smiled at Kim\'s questions and decided to answer them one after the other.

"Your first question, if I\'m correct, is how did I know? To answer that, I would say I had my means, and this is also the answer to your second question. The answer to the third question is yes. For the fourth question, I\'m sorry but I would like to keep it a secret. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

And for your last question, if you really think about it properly, did I actually let them walk free? Technically, they are workers, but in reality, they are nothing more than slaves," Silas said, as he answered Kim\'s questions.

Kim saw how Silas answered her questions in a seemingly perfunctory manner. The answers he gave her weren\'t really the answers she was expecting, but what could she do about it?

She knew that he didn\'t want to reveal anything to her, and this got her a little bit worried.

One of the things she hated was being kept in the dark, and that was something Silas was doing, but she didn\'t know how to confront him.

She wanted to know why he was doing what he was doing. Was he doing it to protect her and Alex? How was he able to get their information in such a short amount of time? When did he leave the house the previous night without her knowledge? For how long was he gone?

These and more questions she wanted answers to, but she knew too well that Silas answered to no one but himself.

Kim looked at Silas for a moment and sighed.

"Silas, it\'s okay if you don\'t want to tell me, but please think of Alex before you take any decision."

Silas heard Kim\'s words and nodded. He understood her thoughts and fears as they were things he felt to be normal.

"I will make sure no harm comes to you or Alex," Silas said with an assuring smile. Words he intended to keep with all his heart and strength.

As it stood now, with the absence of his father, Silas was the man of the house and he intended to take up that role diligently and responsibly.

Speaking about his family\'s safety, Silas decided to let Kim know of his decision to get a new house for them.

"Kim, I feel the house is getting old and small, and I want to get us a new place."

Kim was surprised when she heard Silas talking about getting a new house.

What was he talking about? The house getting older and smaller? What does he mean by that?

It\'s to be known that the house they were living in was a standard three-bedroom building with three bathrooms. It was a house that would still fetch more than $700,000 in its current condition if placed on the market.

Old? She might agree to that. A little renovation would fix it, but small? Completely impossible. She felt that there was more to it.

"Silas... Did something happen?" Kim couldn\'t help but ask.

Silas heard Kim\'s question and looked at her intently for a moment. He knew that there was no way that Kim would readily agree to what he said. Considering the fact that she knew that Silas was hiding a lot of things from her, he knew that she would definitely be suspicious of something.

\'I guess I will have to tell her the truth then,\' Silas thought as he came to a decision.

"Yes. Lucas sent some people to the house," Silas answered.

Kim\'s eyes narrowed immediately when she heard this. She knew that she was right and her hunch was correct, but what was this about Lucas?

"Lucas sent some people to the house? When was this? Was it before or after his arrest? What was the reason?" She decided to ask Silas.

Seeing how curious Kim was, Silas decided to explain everything to her. He started with his history between him and Daniel. While omitting some "minor" details, he told her of their two encounters and what happened.

He summarized everything at the end and explained to her why Lucas sent some uninvited guests to the house.

Kim heard everything and was left shocked for a moment. She found it ridiculously funny and unbelievable how fated the two families were.

Putting aside the fated situation of the families, Kim\'s mind spun when she thought of what Silas had said.

With her knowledge and understanding of Lucas\' personality, Kim knew that him raising a son who was as shitty as him was unavoidable, and what his reaction would be after he heard what happened to his son was very predictable.

This is why she believed what Silas said. She also knew that it would be very advisable for them to move to a new place as soon as possible because considering the predictable nature of the Andersons, she knew that it was highly possible that Daniel was going to be a pain in the ass in the future.

Even though she knew this, she found it hard to agree to move due to one reason: Chris\'s absence.

It had been more than two days since Chris walked out of the house that night, and she hadn\'t heard from him since then.

She would have called him, but the idiot had left his phone behind, leaving her with no means to contact him.

"Silas, we can move, but we have a problem we need to solve before that," Kim said.

Silas was surprised and equally confused when he heard this.

"A problem?" he asked in curiosity, as his brain gears spun at maximum capacity, trying to think of what the problem could possibly be.

"Yes," Kim said with a nod.

"What is this problem?" Silas decided to ask when he couldn\'t find the answer himself.

"It\'s been more than two days since your father left home, and I haven\'t heard from him. Neither can I contact him because he left his phone behind, and there\'s no other means to contact him," Kim said, looking at Silas\' face, and she saw an expressionless look on his face, which made her sigh.

"Silas, I know that he wasn\'t the best dad a child could ask for. Heck, he was as shitty as he could get, but... I can\'t rest easy without knowing about his whereabouts or his well-being.

I know you hate him with all your heart. I know that it took all the self-control you had in you not to punch him in the face that night. Something that I would definitely had done, but no matter how bad he was, he\'s still your father.

I know that you don\'t need him in your life, but please think about Alex. He\'s still too young and he needs a father figure in his life, and he deserves to have what every other child has: a complete family. I know that you\'re ready to be a father figure to him, but can you truly replace your father?

I\'m also saying this because of how much I love him and I won\'t hide it from you. You might also be wondering why I fell for someone like your father when there are a lot of men out there, better men.

Honestly, even I don\'t know the reason. Matters of the heart aren\'t something we can decide, neither do we have a chance to choose. It\'s something that just happens," Kim said with a solemn voice.

Her face painted with different complicated expressions, her eyes moist, and her lips and body quivering slightly.

Her love for Chris was something she also found confusing. Though she didn\'t have the beauty and figure of a model, she was equally beautiful in her own right. This was evident from the significant number of suitors she had in the past and even presently.

Why did she fall for a man like Chris? She completely has no idea. Was this her karma? Same answer: no idea.

Before the incident with Lucas at the office, she became aware of her feelings and had tried multiple times to kill the feelings she had for him before it could develop into something else, but each time, she failed successfully.

Instead of the feelings dying, they came back even stronger. For a very long time, she hid her feelings for him in the deepest part of her heart, but the incident with Lucas made her to lose the control she had over her feelings. This made them rise to the surface, making it impossible for her to hide them anymore.

She decided to embrace her feelings after that incident. Did she regret falling for Chris? No!

But there was something she regretted; she regretted not being able to change Chris\' current character.

Silas saw the emotions in Kim\'s eyes and the complicated expressions on her face, and sighed.

\'That father of mine, how did he do it? How does he enthrall these women? Kim makes it three now,\' Silas thought to himself silently as he closed his eyes briefly.

Silas\' thoughts and emotions towards his father were very complicated. Just as Kim said, his father be damned, but what about Alex and Kim?

His previous thought also matched that of Kim: could he truly replace his father in Alex\'s life? He wasn\'t very confident.

\'Do I really have to forgive that man? Tsk,\' Silas thought of this and clicked his tongue, with his different thoughts flying around in his head as he tried to come to a decision.
