Ryan's POV

" Mom?" I shouted and she was surprised. " Mom, what's going on? Why are you hugging this person who has destroyed our family. He is the cause of my dad's death. He is the person who killed my dad." I shouted.

" Ryan!!!!" My mom shouted. "Stop at once or.."

" Or what mom? You forgot what he did to us? And this lady who is acting to be your best friend are fake mom. They are fake." I said my mom was about to slap me but Mr. Christos hold her hand to prevent her doing this.

" Nice to meet you, Ryan. I didn't think we will meet like this." He said calmly. " Do you know who I am? " he said. I looked at Ashley who was looking at me then her parents then mom and again me. Trying to understand what was happening. I saw all her family was there.

" The person who killed my dad." I said.

" Your dad is alive. " he said and I got shocked.

" What?!!" I shouted.

" I said your dad is alive." He said.

" Where is he? Tell me where is my dad?" I said taking a step towards him.

" I don't know. Your Uncle Finnick knows that where your dad is. I don't know " he said.

" What do you mean?" I bursted angrily.

" Finnick has captured your dad to get your mom. She didn't do what he said and he didn't let your dad go." He said and I was more than angry what?!!

" Don't hide your fault by accusing others. My uncle is not like this." I said. Is he crazy?!

" Your uncle, huh?!" He said.

" Yes and who you are calling him a criminal? " I asked.

" I am your Uncle Jason Christos who is the brother of Jaclyn Christos Axton." He said looking at my mom.

" He is my brother, Ryan. He is your Uncle Jason. He is telling the truth." she cried I got frozen. "You know all that time I said someone helping us everywhere it was him, my brother. He took the responsibilities of us when we got the news that your dad is dead. He helped you when you started your business. He was the friend of mine I was talking every time." She said I looked at them then looked at Ashley I was broken inside. Is that true?!

" Listen to me carefully. My father Gregor Christos made the Christos empire. We had a lot of enemy there. So, my dad sent me and Jaclyn in the UK. We started our higher education there. I met Cynthia there and I found one day that your dad Eric Axton who is Cynthia's cousin loves my sister Jaclyn. I informed my dad everything and he never said no to Jaclyn for anything. My dad loved her like I love my Ashley. But there was one problem that Finnick your Uncle was behind Jaclyn. She never liked him. She only loved your dad. My dad got arrested him for this kind of things. When I got graduated then I married Cynthia but Christopher killed her family for it. I took her with me to Greece. Then your mom and dad got married. When you born your Uncle released from jail and he got married then he killed his wife after his children born. He was still behind your mom. He kidnapped your dad. We didn't know that but a few days ago our detectives found out by trapping his phone calls that your dad is alive. But we don't know it."

" Yeah, Ryan it's truth. Your dad is alive. He isn't dead. I would definitely take you to me. But I was in Coma for 16 years. I didn't know anything. Your mom and I was always best friends." Mrs. Christos said. Mrs. Christos? She is my aunt I looked at her. She meant what she said.

" You have one more thing to hear. " mom said. What is this?!

Eva is not here ,she is with Adriana. Seeing the kid and quarreling with Eon I saw as mom checked it.

" Eva is not your sister, she is not my daughter. I saw Finnick kidnapped her and I stole her from him. I don't know her parents. We need to find that out"

I just broke down and knelt on my knees and I was broken. I felt extrem anger toward myself. I hurt my own family and helped the kidnapper?! I hands went on fists. I will kill him. Then I felt two hands wrapping me from behind and comforting me. I looked behind it was my wife and I instantly calm down. She weakly smiled at me.

" And you know who is Christopher? " she asked and I shook my head.

" He was the one who killed my mother. " what?! He is her father?! I saw her eyes wet I immediately pulled her in a hug and she cried out loud.

" He is not your father, princess I am." Uncle said when I broke the hug. She stood up and ran to her dad and hugged her.

" How can I .." Uncle cut me.

" A hug can erase everything you know? " he stated and I was statue for a moment. Then he pulled me on his hug. I hugged him back. I felt like home. I saw my cousins are smiling.

Now, the girls squealed and jumped on me. I hugged them back. Adriana and Eva was there too. I hugged them tightly and saw that Ashley was smiling. Then I hugged my brothers. I got my family.

But there is a problem. I didn't tell them that we are married.
I then started to saying that.

" Actually, there is a problem... Umm...it's... Well..." I couldn't finish it.

" You two are married, right?" Aunty said calmly pointing me and Ashley. We both stared at each other and all laughed at us.
