Chapter 568


    I didn''t speak, nor did I have any strength left to speak. I didn''t even want to say anything to these


    people.


    Hendrix looked at them with frighteningly deep eyes, but he still didn''t say anything. A long silence


    ensued.


    In the next few days, Hendrix kepting to the hospital, and so did Valerie and Pedro. However, as if


    everyone had already nned it together, they chose to be collectively silent.


    It wasn''t some serious illness, so three dayster, I was discharged from the hospital.


    Hendrix picked me up and brought me back to the vi.


    I seemed to have gotten used to the silence. Looking at all the familiar things in the bedroom, I


    suddenly felt that one-third of my life had been a joke.


    In fact, there was nothing for me to bring with me when I left. Since moving into the Roberts family''s


    vi, all my belongings were bought by Hendrix. With the exception of my ID card and diploma


    certificate, I almost brought nothing with me when I came here.


    "It''s veryte. It''s not safe for you to go out now. Just get some rest today," Hendrix said, reaching to


    hold my hand as I was packing my luggage.


    I pulled my hand away heartlessly and stared at him harshly. "No need. Thanks for the thought, Mr.


    Roberts."


    He frowned. The gloominess on his face grew even heavier, "Arianna, must we take things this far? We


    shouldn''t be like this."


    Iughed, "Yes, we shouldn''t be like this. But how did we reach this point in the first ce?"


    He pursed his lips. His face seemed to be a mix of grimness and pain when he uttered, I''m sorry!"


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    "If my baby and Monique cane back alive, I would dly ept this apology," I pointed out. After


    harming others, he still thought that all his wrongdoings could be erased with an apology. How


    ridiculous.


    Februaries were all drizzles and coldness. I pulled my suitcase out from his grasp..


    I walked out of the bedroom and stood at the entrance of the vi. I heaved a sigh of relief. Finally,


    everything was over.


    Ian had driven his car over. His hair had been cut short and he was energetic as usual. He helped me


    carry my suitcase to the car.


    He peered at me, "Let''s go!"


    After I got into the car, Hendrix simply stood at the door and stared nkly into the distance.


    This parting was a long farewell.


    As the car pulled away, he was still standing there motionless like a statue. His tall and slender body


    became increasingly blurred in the cold drizzle.


    "Perhaps things aren''t as bad as you think. You didn''t have to leave!" Ian told me in a gentle voice.


    Could I really let everything go?


    I was not petty, and could ept pretty much everything. As long as he treated me well and cared


    about me, these didn''t matter to me.


    However, I never thought that everything only happened because he knew of the truth. He knew that


    Valerie and Pedro were my parents, but I didn''t me him for not telling me nor did I me him for


    swapping my DNA with Andrea''s.


    The one thing I couldn''t let go of was that he knew all along that Valerie was my mother but he still


    ruthlessly witnessed her hurt me and cruelly watched as my hatred towards her grew.
