Chapter 1744 Illegal Detention (Part Five)


    "What the hell? Tiana is her own flesh and blood, that she carried in her own body for nine freaking


    months! She gave birth to her! Why is she so keen on marrying her off like that, sacrificing her


    daughter''s happiness like that? I just can''t believe it! What a monster that mother is!" Annie just couldn''t


    believe it. She thought that this kind of thing only happened in the old days. She had no idea that


    parents would still do this to their children in these modern times. Annie''s opinion of Sheena had sunk


    low and deep. How could these kinds of people still exist in this harmonious and supposedly civilized


    society?


    "Yeah, I am also confused. It is hard to figure out what is going on in that crazy woman''s head," Rain


    said in a tired voice. Just thinking of Tiana''s plight was indeed very exhausting. He reached out to pull


    Annie in his arms. He just wanted thefort of his dear wife''s embrace. He could only handle so


    much and could not save the whole world. He must make peace with it.


    "I understand. But you said that you didn''t want anything to do with the Ke family, didn''t you? So don''t


    worry about it too much." Annie held Rain tightly in her arms. She was aware of how pressured and


    tired he must be. She wished that she could help him, but what could she do? She let out a silent sigh,


    feeling a bit helpless. She gently patted his back, trying to give him thefort he deserved. Maybe in


    everyone else''s eyes, Rain was a tough man who was not afraid of anything and could achieve


    anything. But Annie knew better. Even the toughest man had his weak moments. And she should be


    there for him whenever he needed her.


    "Yeah. That''s what I think too." Rain closed his eyes, slowly falling asleep in her arms.


    As the wedding date approached and got closer, Rain started getting busier. He wanted to finish all his


    tasks in advance so he could focus on his wedding and finally and legitimately be with the woman of


    his dreams.


    While Rain was busy working his ass off, Tiana was not that lucky. Her family found where she had run

    off to and forced her to go back home with them. The Ke family wouldn''t let her out of her own room


    because they were afraid that she would run away again. They were really dead set on marrying her off


    to the CEO of the CM Company. It was almost like a cross between kidnapping and illegal detention.


    Rain knew about it but just couldn''t do anything about it. He had researched for information about the


    CEO whom they wanted Tiana to marry. Yes, he was indeed wealthy, but he was not known to be a


    nice person. He was famous for sleeping around with different women and he looked down on people


    below him, treating them like trash. As expected, he was much too old for Tiana. Marrying him would


    certainly be a nightmare for her. Rain just couldn''t let this happen.


    "Let me out, mom! Cyrus, do you want me to marry someone who is much older than you? My brother,


    please open the door!" Tiana shouted helplessly in her room which was at the top floor of the Ke


    family''s big house. But her cries and pleas fell on deaf ears. There was hardly anyone who came near


    her door.


    "Hannah, you are a woman too! You should understand! Do you really want to see me live a miserable


    life?" Tiana knew that she couldn''t run away forever. But she just didn''t think that her family would be


    this merciless and vicious. They made every effort to search everywhere for her and when they finally


    found her they brought her back and locked her in her room. It pained her when she realized that they


    had no second thoughts doing such a vile thing to her. She couldn''t recognize her family anymore as


    they had be ruthless strangers who were only after the benefits that they''d get. They were really


    willing to sacrifice her happiness so that they could continue to live infort.


    "Vance, Eugenia, what have I ever done to you to deserve this? I have always been very nice to you!


    Why are you two treating me like this?" Tiana kept shouting in frustration calling out to her brothers and


    sisters. But no one answered. They all pretended to not hear anything at all. They didn''t care what she


    said as long as she could not run away again.


    "Mom, do you really think that it''s a good idea to marry Tiana off to that man? Wouldn''t that make dad


    furious when he finds out?" Eugenia asked her mother-inw in a worried tone. At least for her, she


    couldn''t deny that Tiana was a good girl and treated her really nicely. And she felt pity for her too. But


    they just needed the money so badly. That was why they had no choice but to agree with their mother


    and sacrifice Tiana.


    "If hees back. You said it yourself. We don''t know when he is going toe back, or if he is


    mad. He can get as angry as he wants but by that time Tiana would have already been married,"


    Sheena answered in a cold tone, a smug smirk on her face. She talked as if the girl who was being


    locked up in her room was not her own daughter. She talked about Tiana like she was just an object


    that she could sell whenever she wanted to.


    "Yeah, mom is right. I don''t understand what you are afraid of," Hannah interrupted, rolling her eyes at


    Eugenia. In fact, she was the one who thought of that idea to marry off Tiana and told her mother-inw


    about it. It was just a careless whim. But to her surprise, Sheena took it seriously and really thought


    that it was indeed a very good idea.


    "I am not afraid. I just feel sorry for her. That''s all. Just pity." Like Tiana said, she was really nice to


    Eugenia all the time. That was why Eugenia couldn''t help but feel a bit guilty about what they were


    doing, ganging up on the poor innocent girl. They might have really gone too far this time, but there


    was no turning back now.


    "Pity? That''s funny. When she gets married to the CEO, she will be the wife of a CEO. She will


    live a wealthy and happy life. I really don''t know what you are thinking right now, Eugenia. What, you


    don''t want your share of the money anymore?" Hannah didn''t care whom Tiana was going to marry, for


    she was not her real sister anyway. As long as her marriage was good for this family and benefited


    them, then she would agree to anything.


    "Of course I want my share of money! Don''t you dare think of keeping all the money to yourself!" When


    it came to money, Eugenia immediately forgot that Tiana, who had been really good to her, was


    suffering right now. She wanted money too, and she was going to get it. Nobody could stand between


    her and that money.


    "I am not nning to. Don''t worry," hummed Hannah in a mock tone. She thought that Eugenia was


    really fake sometimes. She even said that she pitied Tiana. How ridiculous was that? What a hypocrite!


    If she really pitied her, she wouldn''t have helped them bring Tiana back at all. Eugenia was just as


    guilty as every single one of them.
