Zand's heart beat fast as he caught sight of Mona inside his room. However, her next words panged his heart like an arrow.
"Who are you?" Mona asked as she maintained an apprehensive look over him. As he was about to take a step forward, she took a defensive stance.
"Ca-Can't you recognize me?" He asked as his voice shook, and Mona was surprised to see tears in the man's eyes. It was so unlike Zand.
"Don't play around and tell me what you want!" She asserted, her eyes glaring at him. Zand remains unfazed by her outburst.
"Do you recall your son?" His sudden question caught her off guard, and her expression changed into a worried one.
"He used to be so weak… everyone used to bully him, beat him." Zand continued as Mona's eyes stilled at him, trying to gauge him.
"Wh-Who are you? How do you even know that?" Mona exclaimed as he kept looking at her, the intensity in those eyes scared her because they resembled so well with her first husband.
