"Anna, he is Luke Steve, my real brother. And that is my youngest real brother, Scott Steve."

THUD!THUD!

Was one shock not enough for her that another came with another blow. T-They all are brothers!?

Anna almost was going to faint if not for the tight grip of Chris's on her waist. She did not know what to say anymore. It was too much, and maybe it can never be described what she was feeling right now.

Betrayal might be the correct word to use, she was betrayed not once but again in her life. The person she loved turned out to be someone else. Her love was true to him. Her feelings, her emotions were all honest. Then why she is ditched like this again!??! Why he kept her in dark about everything from the start!?

Why he let her fall in love with him?! They kissed each other when she is going to be his brother's fiance soon!

But Alex told her that he has a younger brother. Here the situation is fully different. If seen carefully, Alex is the middle child and Scott the youngest, making Chris the eldest child.

But they all were Steves!? Klara and David had three sons!?

"Y-You all are related? You all are real brothers?" Anna again asked, hoping for a negative answer but her luck was bad this time again.

Scott spoke, "No elder sister. We all are brothers." Anna did not know how to digest this news in herself. It did not pain her at all that they were brothers, maybe even a little only.

But what she thought was the pain of hiding the truth from her was the biggest thing she faced. Once again love made fool out of her. Once again

"Alex, be respectful at least. Greet Anna first, the way you should." Chris said while inhaling Anna's hair's scent.

But Alex's hand was already formed into a fist which might break all the teeth of Chris. Instead of her eyes, his gaze was fixed on the hand of Chris, which was wrapped around Anna's body.

It was sore for his eyes! He dared not to look in her eyes in which he can see, tears were formed. He knew that this might be painful for her. She might ignore this fact for long but he had no option. Her crowning ceremony left him with no option other than to disclose himself.

Greet Anna they way he should!? Was not this a way of showing his superiority!?

His veins were coming out in anger but he had to control it. He can't explode at Chris at this moment.

"Nice to meet you, sister in law."

While Anna's eyes were fixed on him. What did he say!? Sister in law? Seriously!?

Her first kiss was him! And here now he is calling her sister in law?

Anna's nails were almost dipping into her hands. This was done so that she can be brought back to reality because this was not less than any dream for her anymore. The dream of thinking that she is too much away from Alex.

She had convinced herself by saying ti her heart that Alex is a simple person and she can not afford to ruin a simple life in her complicated world. But who knew that Alex was already a part of her world and that too, so much close to her complications.

'And this was the reason you are still alive, Alex.' This was can be the only reason Anna can figure out.

"Excuse me. I need to use the ladies' room." Anna removed Chris's hand as his grip loosened on its own and she walked fastly to the ladies' room, without turning back. She can not afford to turn around now.

All just stared at her leaving but no one stopped her.

"Alex, we need to talk." David turned to his middle son but all he received as an answer was, "At your home." Alex said while his eyes glued to Anna's leaving figure.

Amidst the crowd, and instead of going to the lady's room, Anna went back to her room. She needed some space before her crowning is done.

But to her surprise, Marrie came and stopped her midway in her room. "What happened Anna!? Where are you going? Crowning us going to be done now. Everyone is waiting." Marrie had seen Anna stood with Chris while talking to someone but what happened to her suddenly!? She was okay just a moment ago.

But she was too much occupied in her thoughts that whatever Marrie said just slipped out of her brain. All she knew was to go back to her room and clear her thoughts first.

"Anna!?" mother Marrie shook her shoulder and brought her back from the daze.

Anna looked at her mother with her wide eyes whereas there was a confusional look on Marrie's face. She did not know how to define what happened just now. Everything was just played in fast motion. and maybe this feeling can't be defined too. Not at all.

"Mum, can we just postpone the ceremony for one hour please?" But Anna received a negative answer because it was already late for everyone. She has to do this. Face everyone while her mind was just occupied with Alex's thoughts and his presence here.

"Anna, you can take a break from everything once the crowning is done. Just come down for now." Saying this, Mother Marrie assured her and took her back into the hall with her.

But Anna's eyes were just searching for that particular person. But her gaze did not catch him at all. 'Where is he?' As he is already here, Anna wants him to be by her side when she is crowned.

Crowning was a one-time event in life history. She knew even after all those things, Anna can never deny her feelings which were growing more and more for Alex.

"Anna, let us get you crowned now." Grandfather Walker said.
