Mark's POV:

So until Anna knows about her father reality, Lucus should be alive and he deserves a good face slap from my girl for the drama he did.

Tom: Okay then, shall I shift him into your hospital, Mona?

"No..."

(Both me and Mona shouted at a time.)

Mona: I am not interested to give treatment to him, Tom, and if you insist on me to give treatment to him I will kill him instead of giving treatment, which is not good for Mark's love relationship so better admit him to another hospital...

(Mona said with her furious tone and yes I can understand her angry because he is one of the culprits in Ria's case and now he tried to take Anna's life, So there is nothing wrong with Mona's angry, Tom looking at her with his narrowed eyes and I understand he will convince Mona to give treatment to Lucas, So I immediately interrupted him with my point of view.)

Mark: No, Tom, giving treatment to Lucas in Mona's hospital is not safe at all...

Tom: Why?

Mark: Anna's mother is getting treatment in the same hospital and she is still under treatment so it's not safe for her mom if we treat Lucas in the same hospital. So better take him into another hospital for the treatment.

Mona: Yes, Tom, Mark has a valid point, it's not at all safe for Anna's mother, let Lucas treatment done in another hospital.

(Tom nodded his head as Ok and he immediately gave some orders to his subordinates and busy in arranging an ambulance to take Lucas to the hospital.)

Mona: Healing from wounds, it may take 20 to 25 days, Mark...

Mark: So till then our interrogation proceeding are adjourned?

Mona: No, Mark, within 2 days we can start our proceedings because the wounds are on his hands so we no need to wait for so long, soon he will get into consciousness so we can start our proceedings.

(I nodded my head as ok and again looked at my girl, Anna's face looks so relieved than before and I still hugged her close to my c.h.e.s.t very c.a.r.e.s.singly and when I am looking at her face, I observed a little bruise on her neck and I understand it is got from the attack of Lucus, I immediately looked at Mona for the treatment, she is observing me and understand what I mean.)

Mona: Don't worry, Mark, I will take care of it...

Let's go to my house...

Mark: Your house?

Mona: Yes Mark, Anna doesn't need hospital treatment and she just needs some rest and it's better if Anna stays this night under my supervision.

(I immediately nodded my head as ok and agreed with what Mona said because Anna's health is more important to me than anything else and I am sure she will heal soon under Mona's supervision.)

(I nodded my head as ok and looked at my Anna her face is covered with her hair so I slowly placed her hair strings near to her ear and looked at her.)

Mona: Tom, do you know about this?

(Mona asked Tom in an angry note about the Lucas incident because she is more scared for Anna's safety and she got doubt on Tom that he might know about this attack in prior when I told her about the fingerprints and the pistol, and she thinks Tom might know something like this will happen.)

Tom: About what?

Mona: About the incident happened now...

(Mona asked Tom with her stressed angry note and Tom did not answer to her, and both Mona and I understand that he did on purpose but Tom never takes the risk on an innocent life but I didn't understand why did he take a daring step by threatening Anna's life.)

Mona: Say, Tom, silence is not an answer to my question...

Tom: I will tell you in detail after we reached the home, Mona...

Mona: Ok but right now I just want to know if you know about this attack in prior or not...

Tom: I just predict if Locus is the real culprit in Ria's case he will definitely try to escape and here it goes he tried to escape and proves that he is guilty in Ria's case and I will tell both of you in detail once I reached home.

Mona: Why don't you tell me about the fingerprints?

Tom: I just looked at the fingerprint just before Mark's arrival and I don't have time to discuss about this with you and I plotted this plan in just a fraction of seconds and particularly I got the flash of this idea when Anna asked us to meet her dad, that's it, please trust me and I will tell you in detail after we reached home...

(In between Tom looked at me.)

Tom: Mark, take care of Anna and Mona, I will come soon...

(I nodded my head as ok and carried my Anna in a bridal style and lead her towards my car. I gave the car keys to Mona to drive the car and I get into the back seats along with my Anna. Mona started driving to her home and I still hold my Anna very c.a.r.e.s.singly by pulling her more close to my c.h.e.s.t.

there are many unanswered questions in my mind, Why Tom is in dilemma about Lucas, why he got doubt on Lucas even after the fingerprints got tallied?
