Chapter 190
“Mom!!” He heard Lisa called out and he stared at them surprised. He wasn’t that surprised though, Lisa looked so much like her but he never thought they would be related.
“Lisa my sweetheart ” Mrs Rebecca called out with tears in her eyes.
“Oh my goodness!! Mommy you remember me,” Lisa asked to be sure her mom had really regained her memories.
“Yes sweetheart. I’m so sorry” Mrs Rebecca said as she and Lisa both hugged each other so tight like their life depended on it.
Tears slipped down their closed eyes. Lisa was so happy her mom had regained her memories. It was like a dream come true.
Daniel sighed softly as he watched Lisa. He was happy for her, he wouldn’t wish for anything more than Lisa to be happy. Just then he heard his phone ring.
He walked out of the ward and answered the phone call.
“Daniel” he heard his mom call over the phone in a teary tone.
“Mommy, what’s wrong? Are you alright?” Daniel asked worriedly.
“Son, can you please come home?” Mrs Bella said as more tears slipped down her cheeks.
“Of Course mom, I’m on my way home now. You should stop crying. I’ll be home in a jiffy” Daniel said and quickly ended the call.
He didn’t spend any more time in the hospital as he ran inside his car, ignited the engine and zoomed off.

Lisa pulled away from the hug as she stared at her mom.
“I missed you so much mommy” Lisa said as she wiped the tears in her mom’s eyes while her mom did the same.
She stared at her daughter who was all grown up and then she remembered the quadruplets, her daughter was now a mother and she’s a grandma.
It’s been so long and she knows a lot of things had happened to her after that day she was taken away. It was all her fault, her husband had told her once Lisa was eighteen he should take her to a far away place but she didn’t. He blamed herself for anything that had happened to her in the past.
She knows she must be suffering from the thoughts that she couldn’t remember her.
“Lisa, I’m so sorry…….”
“No mommy, you shouldn’t be sorry for anything. It’s all in the past now. I’m glad you’ve regained your memories now” Lisa said as she smiled. She looked so happy.
Just then Mrs Rebecca caught a glimpse of Daisy who was standing at the corner of the room staring at them.
“Daisy sweetheart, come over here honey” Mrs Rebecca said to Daisy who did nothing but stared at her and suddenly she ran out of the ward with tears in her eyes.
“Daisy, Daisy” Mrs Rebecca called and made to go after her but Lisa held her.
“You should rest mom, you are still recovering. She’s going to be fine” Lisa said as she hugged her mom who nodded in response.

Meanwhile, Mrs Bella is seen pacing to and fro inside her room looking so nervous. Her palm and forehead were sweating so bad.
She never thought she would see her again after all these years. She heard rumors years back that she was dead and now he’s seen her in her house, in her son’s party , alive and healthy and worst of all, Daniel knows her.
She’s never felt this scared all her entire life. What if the evil she did in the past wants to come haunting her. She needed to tell Daniel the truth before he finds out else he will never forgive her.
Just then she heard Daniel’s car screeching to a halt in front of the mansion. She rushed to her window and watched him hop out of the car in a rush and ran inside the house.
“Mom” she heard him call her name. The house was as quiet as usual making it easier for her to hear his voice from downstairs. The party she was to hold for her son had been canceled because of what happened.
She wouldn’t want to tell him the truth but right now she has no option. If he finds out himself he will never forgive her but him telling him the truth might make him forging her.
Tears slipped down her cheeks at the thought of her losing her son for good. She loves Daniel so much and heaven bears her witness. She never thought this day would come where she would start confessing about what she had done.
Just then the door to her room burst open revealing Daniel.
“Mom” Daniel called as he walked inside the room looking as worried as ever.
“Daniel” his mom called out as she hugged him so tight with tears in her eyes. Daniel was surprised to see her mom crying. She’s never seen her this sad except the day he had lost his father.
“Mom what happened?” Daniel asked worriedly.
“I’m sorry son, I’m so sorry” Mrs Bella cried on Daniel’s shoulder.
“What’s wrong mommy? You getting me scared” Daniel said and Mrs Bella pulled away from the hug.
“Daniel, you know how much I love you right? You know I love you with everything in me, you know I love you to the extent I’ll be able to do anything for you” Mrs Bella pursed as she cried.
“Mom, what’s wrong? I know you love me and I love you too. Can you please stop crying already” Daniel said and Mrs Bella nodded and sniffed as she wiped her tears but more tears kept sliding down her cheeks.
She just couldn’t stop herself from crying.
“Daniel, no matter what I do, you’ll forgive me right?” Mrs Bella said, shivering in fear.
“Mom, no matter what I can never get angry at you. I’ll forgive you. You are my mom and I love you so much” Daniel said
“I love you too son but mommy has done something terrible and you’ll never be able to forgive her if she tells you” Mrs Bella said as she almost fell to the ground but Daniel quickly held her and hugged her.
“No matter what mommy, even though you make a big mistake, you will always be my mom and I’ll forgive you no matter what” Daniel said as she pulled away from the hug. Mrs Bella stared at his sweet and loving boy.
Oh Daniel, if you had known what I have done. I have lied to you and made you live your life in lies all these years, Mrs Bella thought as she wiped her tears and then she finally muttered the courage to tell Daniel the truth.
“I am not your mother” Mrs Bella said and Daniel laughed.
“This must be one of your jokes. Common mommy, you should stop joking with me” Daniel said as he smiled .
“Daniel, it’s no prank, it’s no joke. I am not your birth mom” Mrs Bella said and Daniel raised his head and stared at her. He could see she was so serious.
“What do you mean? You’ve been the very one with me since I was a child , the photos are in the sitting room. What are you saying?” Daniel asked, looking so confused.
“It’s the truth son. I didn’t give birth to you. I had taken you away from your mother the day you were born” Mrs Bella said and Daniel moved back a bit.
“The Day you were born, a nurse I paid for took you away from your mom and gave you to me.
I had taken you away from your mom and separated you from your twin. I’m so sorry” Mrs Bella said
“If you are not my mom then who is?” Daniel asked.
“Mrs Rebecca is your real mother”
