Chapter 278: The Truth
Maria stood up from her seat, and walked up to Amrita, she stopped in front of her, and observed her slowly.
"Sister already said all that can be said, I just want to give you all the life times you used on us, training us in school, and everything."
"Maria..."
Maria raised her hand, stopping her from saying anything, she turned her head to the Boss, and with a look. The man quickly walked up to them.
"How many life times to set her free? She won't be doing this anymore."
The man was taken aback, Amrita is one of his best worker, letting her go will place a bummer in his work, but he wasn't ready to offend anyone related to The Conquerors, so he took a deep breath and called his price:
"10 Million years Life times."
"What the hell?! Isn't that going overboard?!" The Mayor yelled in rage, hearing the amount.
"It's nothing." Maria nodded at the man. "You ID."
The man was stunned, but quickly gave his name to Maria, who in present of everyone, transferred a total of 10 Million to the man."
"Thank You, Miss Maria! Thank You, Miss Maria!" The man kept on bowing none stop.
'10 Million just like that, I'm rich, If I had known, I would have said 100 Million.' He thought.
"You can go."
The man nodded at her, and walked away, he gestured for the other women to follow behind him.
Everyone watched as the man and his dancers walked out from the hall, Leaving Amrita behind.
"Maria..."
Beep!
< Non-player Amrita, player White-Death gifted you with 1 Billion years of Life times.>
"Goodbye, We don't want to see you anywhere close to our lives again... You are dead to us."
With that said, she walked past Amrita, heading to the exit, Mira quickly followed behind.
"Maria."
She stopped.
Amrita turned around and walked up to her, tears in her eyes. "I won't ask for your forgiveness because what I did is beyond forgiveness... But you know I love both of you every much, I should have tried to convince or stop him, but because of Life times, we... I... Did such a bad thing... I just want to say, ever since then, I have regretted that decision...
I let your..." She paused, and continued:
"I let that Man, Believe me, I looked for you two... I searched everywhere..." She wiped the tears off her cheeks.
"I won't hold you anymore, I'm just happy my girls are happy, and living their lives as I hope they would... I'll respect you two wishes, I won't disturb any of you girls."
Maria sniffed the tears back, nodded, and walked away, not looking at Amrita... She wiped the tears off her face and exited the hotel with Mira.
Jennifer sighed, she walked up to Amrita and placed her hand on her shoulder, Amrita shivered feeling Jennifer's hand on her body.
"I would have killed you, but you saved yourself by saying the truth." Jennifer removed her hand, and looked at Nemesis, Sunny, and Niki, who stood at the table, staring at them.
"The party is good we enjoyed ourselves, But we'll take our leave now." She said to the Mayor, who quickly nodded.
"I understand, Miss Jennifer... And thank you for coming." The Mayor said with a smile.
Jennifer nodded, and walked outside, followed by the three.
Amrita thought for a while, then left the place.

[Outside the Hotel.]
"Hey, they're coming out." The security guard said to his friend, who quickly dusted his suit.
Before he could take a step, he froze, seeing Maria was crying. "What happened?" He asked his friend in a whisper.
"How would I know that?" The guy asked with a slight frown.
The two girls walked past them towards their BMW, the two got in, and then Maria burst into tears.
"It's ok, Maria. You did the right thing." Mira consoled, stroking Maria's back.
The guards looked at each other in utter confusion, They turned their heads to the door, seeing Jennifer, Nemesis, Niki and Sunny walking outside.
The group also walked past them, Jennifer got in the BMW, while Nemesis and the other two got inside the SUV.
In the BMW, Maria raised her head to Jennifer who sat on the driver's seat.
"Was she telling the truth? That she searched for us?"
Jennifer nodded slowly, looking at the two from the rearview mirror, her hands on the steering wheel.
Maria nodded again: "Let's get out from here."
Jennifer nodded, started the car, and drove away, the SUV quickly followed behind.
Amrita stared at the cars as they drove away... The two guards walked up to her.
"Madam, What happened inside?" The guy who planned on being a kept guy, asked.
Amrita looked at the 1 Billion in her bracelet, and asked the two. "Which City is the farthest from Amerisa?"
"Uh?"
The two looked at themselves in confusion, and the one at the right Answered;
"The 10th City is the farthest, it's across the sea... Why are you asking?"
She smiled at them, and walked away, not saying anything... She'll honor her girls' wish, and stay far away from them, Live her life in loneliness still her time comes.

Above the Hotel, two figures stood on it, staring at Amrita as she walked down the street, called a cab, entered and drove away.
"I'm still surprised you held back, the Erika I knew would have killed her on the spot."
Erika turned her head to Michael, and sighed softly;
"When we were kids, she loved us more than her life, when that fool brought the topic of Life times and the way to solve the issue, she refused... I don't know what he told her, which made her accept his decision--"
"--I think I know the reason."
"Really?" Erika looked up at him in surprise. "How?"
"When you called me, I activated my skill, and read her brain... Your father threatened if she doesn't accept, he'll take you and Maria's life times, then sell you two off... I think that's the reason."
Erika thought for a moment, and turned her gaze to the cab, which was now distance away.
"Don't worry, Love." Michael wrapped his hands around her shoulder.
"I used a Special Card on her, AI will be giving me notification about her whereabouts and health, every week... We can always know where she is."
Erika sighed, and rested her head on his chest. "Thank You."
Michael smiled; "She's family, It's my job."
