Chapter 86 - I Am Really Ashamed Of Myself

Nina Anderson reached near the park of their colony. She could see a lady sitting over there.

"Who is she?"She mumbled and forwarded towards the bench on which the lady was sitting.

"Mrs. Thomson! Why are you here?"Nina Anderson's mouth was agape in amazement to see the lady in front of her. She could never think that Mrs. Catherine Thomson would come to her place.

"Oh!My dear daughter - in - law! How are you? I am here to see you."Mrs. Catherine Thomson said in a happy tone.

"I am fine. I just could not believe that you have come all the way here to meet me! How did you find my address?"

"I have my own ways to find. Although I am helpless in front of my father- in - law,but I am good at these things.He he." Mrs. Catherine Thomnosn laughed.

"But why are you sitting here? You could have asked the security to call me.I would have come home earlier." Nina Anderson said in a worried tone.

"It's ok dear. I like this place . I did not want to inform you as you must be doing work."

"Ok. Now let us go in. You must be tired."Nina Anderson said and got up.

"Ok, Let's go. I want to see where do you live."Mrs. Catherine Thomson said and followed Nina Anderson.

Both of them entered the apartment together.

"Mrs. Thomson, Please have a seat. Here you might be uncomfortable, as my furnitures are not much com ...."Nina Anderson wanted to speak something but Mrs. Catherine stopped her.

"Nina, don't worry. I am fine. I think we should have a cup of coffee. Isn't it? I was sitting there for a long time. So, I need one cup of coffee now."Mrs. Catherine said with a smile.

"Oh. Sorry. Please wait here. I am going to make coffee for you."Nina Anderson said and left the drawing- room hurriedly. Mrs. Catherine Thomson smiled and dialed a number.

"Hello, Madam, when will we return to city T?"The driver asked through the phone.

"We are not returning today. You go and book a hotel room for yourself. I am going to stay with my relative here."Mrs. Catherine Thomson replied.

"But, the boss would be angry, if you not return today."

"Don't worry. I will do something. Now you leave the colony . Come here tomorrow morning."Mrs. Catherine Thomson said and hang up the call.

'I should send a text message to Harris.'She thought and sent a text message.

'I found her. Tonight I am staying here. Please control the situation there.'

"Mrs. Thomson, here I have brought some cookies for you. Please have these." Nina Anderson entered the dining room with a tray.

"Thank you, dear. These are my favorite. Thank you."Nina Anderson smiled to hear her.

"Come here sit with me. Let us have a talk ."Nina Anderson nodded and sat near the lady.

"Mrs. Thomson, it is already late. It will take more than three hours to reach home. I think you should not stay here for a long time."Nina Anderson said in a low voice.

"So, are you trying to throw me out?"

"No, no. I did not mean that. How can I throw you out? But I am worried for you. Everyone in Thomson Manor would be worried for you."

"Don't worry. I already managed that. I am going to spend the night with you."Mrs. Catherine Thomson said with a happy smile.

"What? B....but I don't think you would be comfortable here. And I have only one bed here. That is also not as comfortable as the bed you use to sleep in. You would not be able to sleep here comfortably."Nina Anderson said worriedly. She did not want Mrs. Catherine to stay here with her. She only wanted to make some distance with the Thomson's.

"Don't worry. I can sleep with you in the same bed. And I am going to talk to you the whole night, so don't worry about me.He he."Mrs. Catherine said with a laugh.

"But....."Nina Anderson tried to speak something but stopped by Mrs. Catherine.

"Nina, I am not going to leave today. So, don't ask me to leave. Someone is here. You should open the door. "Mrs. Catherine said and pulled a magazine to read. Nina Anderson sighed and opened the door. It was Miss Tirana.

"What were you doing? I am waiting at your door for all the ages."Miss Tirana said and entered the room before Nina Anderson could stop her

"Here I have made a list of some articles about the project. It will help you to know the project well.Nina, do you know, today I have seen a profile of a super handsome boy. I think I have already fallen for him. Come here why are you standing there like a statue? I have brought.N.....N.....Nina, do you have a guest? Why ...why you did not say me e.....earlier?"Miss Tirana stopped to see Mrs. Catherine Thomson and said nervously. Mrs. Catherine was smiling to see the nervous girl in front of her.

"Come here, pretty lady.Are you my daughter - in law's friend? You must be. You are also as beautiful as her. My Liam would be happy to meet you."Mrs. Catherine Thomson said with a laugh.

"I....I am sorry. I did not know that you are here. I sprouted some non- sense earlier. Please don't mind."Miss Tirana uttered somehow and stared at her friend, who just reached near them.

"I don't mind those things. Come have a seat here. Let me introduce myself. I am Catherine Thomson. I am her mother- in - law."Mrs. Catherine Thomson said with a smile.

"M.......mother - in - law?Y....you mean you are Mr. James Thomson's mother?"Now Miss Tiran was shocked. She could never think that she would meet James Thomsoson's mother - in - law here. Nina Anderson looked at the two women in front of her helplessly. 

"Tirana, would you like to have a cup of coffee?"She asked.

"Y...yes.Let me help you."Miss Tirana said and pulled Nina Anderson towards the kitchen.

"Nina, what is this? Why is she here?"Miss Tirana asked curiously.

"I think she is here to meet me."Nina Anderson replied.

"But I think she is here to pursue you to go back to them. She is calling herself your mother- in law. I am happy for you."Miss Tirana said happily.

"It is not that simple as you think. And I am not interested to return there. That place is not for a poor girl like me. I don't want to enter their world again. My world is much different from theirs."Anderson said in a serious tone.

"But should not you give them a chance again? She is here to bring back her daughter - in - law after all."

"I think you have forgotten that we are no longer married. I signed the divorce papers long ago. She is here as she might not be aware of all these. I tried to send her back. But she insisted to stay here for the night. So, I am helpless now."Nina Anderson replied and handed her a cup of coffee. Miss Tirana accepted and have her coffee.

"Ok. I understand. I think you should speak to her properly. I will leave all the documents here. You can check those tomorrow also. Will you leave early morning?"

"Yes. It will take five hours by bus to reach there. So, I must leave early."Nina Anderson replied.

"Ok Then. Be careful . Let me know if there is any problem. My best wishes are with you."

"Thank you, my dear friend."Nina Anderson replied with a smile. Miss Tirana smiled and reached near Mrs. Catherine Thomson.

"Mrs. Thomson, I have to leave now. Please enjoy your night here. Good night." Miss Tirana greeted her with a smile and left. 

Nina Anderson and Mrs. Catherine Thomson went to bed early.

"Nina, why did you leave us without speaking a single word? Do you know how worried was I for you? Not only me, everyone in the Thomson manor searched for you for a long time. You even did not leave a single note for me. Were you that much angry with me?"

"Mrs. Thomson, I am sorry for causing trouble for you all. I did not want to disturb you all more. That's why I did not leave anything behind."Nina Anderson said with a smile.

"Nina, what are you speaking of? You are the daughter - in - law of Thomson's. How can you leave everything behind like that? No, Nina. You should not have left us like that."

"Mrs. Thomson, I am sorry. But I have no relationship with the Thomson's now.Although I had a lot of flaws, everyone in Thomson Manor accepted me as a family member. But I deceived everyone. I am really ashamed of myself. "Nina Anderson said in a low voice.
