Chapter 827


    Valerie watched as | only took a few bites and ced it down. Her heart ached as she said, "You have to eat more. Otherwise,


    how will you have the energy to take care of him?"This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .


    Thinking about it, | agreed too and forced myself to take a few more mouthfuls until | couldn''t eat anymore and ced down the


    lunch box.


    She tidied up and looked at me, still looking quite distressed. She reminded me, "You must take good care of yourself.”


    | was busy staring at her and | felt a dullness in my heart. | couldn''t help but ask as | looked at her, "What were you thinking of


    back then when you abandoned me?"


    It was somewhat an abrupt topic to bring up. All those years, | had been telling everyone every day that it was okay to not have


    my own birth parents with me as | didn''t need them.


    However, every time | saw someone walking hand-in-hand with their parents and being doted upon, | was envious. | was afraid


    that others would see through my envy, so | dared not look at them.


    Valerie shed tears, and her body trembled a little. | knew that she was upset.


    Not waiting for her to answer, | spoke on my own, "When | was young, | wrote an essay which got an award. It was sometime


    during Year 3. The title of my essay was ‘My Mother’. Grandma was overjoyed. She said that she wanted to take a look at my


    essay, but | didn''t show it to her, not even to Monique who had gone to schoo! with me. | had initially wanted to burn that essay,


    but couldn''t bring myself to do so in the end."


    Seeing her wiping her tears, | sighed as | continued, "Honestly, you''re different from the mother | had in mind. Back then, | used


    to imagine what my mother would be like. Due to the fact that | had never seen you before, | thought that you would be like


    Monique''s mom who constantly liked to nag. Every time Monique didn''t get up in the morning, she would stand at Monique''s


    bedside and nag at her, all the way until Monique lost her mind. Or, maybe my mother would be like Sandy''s mother, who would


    always buy lots of pretty dresses and beautiful things for Sandy. | had imagined a lot of times what you would look like, but | had


    never thought of someone like you. You don''t look like what | imagined. There''s no bliss or warmth like | had expected. Your


    presence didn''t bring me any joy or happiness, only pain."


    She sobbed, possibly out of distress. She couldn''t catch her breath for some time.


    She said, "Arianna, I''m sorry, | was wrong. Give me another chance, I''ll work hard. I''ll definitely be the mother you


    imagined."


    | was a little sad. She was the person whom | had thought about day in, day out when | was younger, yet after growing up, |


    discovered that some people were only suited to stay in our memories.


    | pulled a tissue out for her to wipe away her tears. | said to her, "| can''t possibly understand what your feelings were when you


    abandoned me, but | can understand your love towards your own child. Grandma said that no matter how dark our paths may


    be, light must remain in our hearts. However, | couldn''t constantly face the light. None of you were actually at fault as the only


    fault lies with fate. | had initially med you, but | don''t anymore."


    No one in the world was perfect. Valerie and Pedro weren''t bad people, but neither were they good. Although they had their ws


    as parents, they weren''tpletely bad people either.


    | was probably considered a lucky


    person, to have Hendrix''s un


    devotion, a nd to baveparents who


    Waer eiSoictey ruthless or


    emotionless. That in itself was a


    blessing. Please read the original

    Anyone who met Eugene''s so-called mother would probably be filled with disgust.


    Rowane''s fate was bleak enough. She was abandoned when she was young. She was currently sessful, but she was pushed


    to the edge by her own birth parents.


    As | thought about it closely, how


    could anyone live a perfect li


    Whose lif agnitfullt horns and


    ast |, we had to press on


    forward and be brave throughout life.
