The Apple of My Eye

"I'm warning you. You'd better leave now. If you don't, I will call the police and make sure that you end up behind bars." Mike pushed her away. Never in his wildest imagination did he think that Becky would do something so horrible to Joanna, a kind soul who already treated her as part of the family.

"Grandpa, grandma. I know that I made a terrible mistake. I am begging for your forgiveness, " Becky pleaded. She was doing her best, but she knew that it was too late for them to forgive her. She could only hope and pray that Joanna could see her sincerity and trust her again. "Grandma, I really like Aron. As for that accident of that day... I was out of my mind. I never really meant to hurt you, " she explained.

"Enough with your lies! Stop acting like an innocent lamb. Keep it in that evil brain of yours, we will never, ever trust you or want to see you ever again, " Mike ignored her pleas. "Leave here now. You are no longer welcome here."

"Grandma, grandma..." Becky cried. "Please give me a chance. Please! Listen to me. I can explain everything."

"There is no need for that. You heard my grandfather." Aron said, walking towards Joanna. He even didn't give Becky a glance as he walked past her. "Don't waste your time here. If I were you, I wouldn't even have the face to come here. In case it isn't clear to you yet, the wedding is off. As for the engagement gifts... You can keep them. After all, you have taken care of my grandparents for four years. What you did was attempted murder. You tried to kill my grandmother! But now that she has regained consciousness, we will not press charges. You are now dead to us. If you ever come near my grandparents again, I won't be as kind and I will come at you."

'Whether it was for show or not, Becky have indeed looked after my grandparents well. Even so, I can't force myself to forgive her now.' Aron thought to himself.

"Aron, I..." Becky was at a loss, as if her world had collapsed. "Grandma, please help me. I really can't live without Aron. I am nothing without him." Becky turned to Joanna.

Joanna looked away saying nothing. Desperate, Becky went down on her knees before her. Joanna was the only one who could help her change Aron's mind. Aron must marry her.
