Chapter 532


    Because of the marriage between Tracey and Adam, Aydan and Johan tried to y Chinese chess


    together.


    They got along with each other much better than before, though they would throw some sarcasm at


    each other. The dinner was not ready, and Tracey brought some drinks.


    "Uncle, your coffee; Grandpa, your tea." Tracey put the drinks on the coasters next to them


    thoughtfully.


    "Tracey, you still call me Uncle?" Aydan looked at Tracey. They met for the first time at a dinner


    party. Aydan mistook Tracey for a loose woman and was rude to her.


    But Tracey didn''t have a grudge against Aydan. After what happened in the Sheng''sst time,


    Aydan invited Tracey to dinner as an apology. However, Tracey was too busy to attend the dinner


    and made it clear to Aydan that she was fine.


    After a longtime observation, Aydan concluded that Adam could discern greatness from mediocrity,


    as Tracey was independent and broad-minded, while Rachel was nothingpared to Tracey.


    Whenever Tracey stood next to Adam, even in silence, there was a sweet aura circting around


    them.


    A good match was more important than whatever backgrounds, ages, or social statuses.


    The question from Aydan surprised Tracey. In fact, Aydan had taken Tracey as his daughter-in-w


    when he gave both shares and bracelets to herst time.


    "Dad..." Tracey whispered. Aydan had yearned for family affection all his life.


    "Good girl."


    Adam found tears in the corner of Aydan''s eyes. Because of what Aydan did to Emery, Adam hated


    Aydan and seldom called him Dad. However, his hatred towards Aydan died away as time passed.


    "Let''s leave them alone." Adam led Tracey away by her hand. In fact, Tracey noticed, but kept silent


    about Adam''s awkwardness.


    Right then, Ben was back home. Adam greeted him immediately, "Uncle Ben."


    Ben wasposed and nodded as a response. The three of them sat on the sofa, and Ben


    checked himself several times before speaking his mind.


    "Dad, please speak your mind." Tracey felt that Ben had nced at her more than ten times, and he


    swallowed back his words every time Tracey was ready to respond.


    "Well, nothing. It''s just a long time no see." Ben didn''t look fine.


    After a second thought, Tracey prated Ben''s mind, "Dad, do you have questions about Mom?"


    "Well, did you ever meet her during your stay in the US?" Ben lowered his head. He worried about


    Tina. Ben once tried to get close to Tina through their cooperation project, but Neymar was the


    project leader now, rather than Tina.


    "Dad, I met Mom, but she still refused to ept me. Dad, I would like to know how you two met?"


    Tracey asked Ben with a little expectation.


    "Your Mom was still young, in her teens, when I found her in rags in a street corner. Then I took her


    home."


    "She lost all her memories for some blows. She called herself Venus, and I had searched for her


    family for a long time."


    "I thought she might forget her home address, so I let this homeless girl stay in the Xia''s."


    "Love came in time, and I fell for her. Later you were born. She was 18 years when pregnant, and


    not at the age of marriage yet." "Back then, we didn''t care about this trifle, as we were sincere to our


    future. Since she had no home, I was d to provide one for her."


    "I thought that we would be happy forever. I loved her very much, and she was thest person I


    would hurt in the world. However, I did hurt her badlyter."


    Ben closed his eyes. He recalled in his mind that poor girl standing by the bin at a street corner. She


    opened her eyes, and a pair of beautiful eyes looked straight at him.


    He was bewitched to lead this girl home. Ben still felt that thrill about the first sight of that girl who


    came out of the bathroom after washing up.


    "That... is there still some dirt on my face?" The young girl touched her face diffidently for the hard


    stare from Ben.


    Ben had graduated from college for two years. And he was 24 years and in charge of the family


    business.


    Thanks to his background, Ben had met all kinds of beauties, but none of those women was so


    good-looking as this little girl before his eyes.


    She still had baby fat on the face with a pair of intelligent eyes. She was tall and had an excellent


    body line.


    She, in a white chiffon dress, looked like a sacred angle, and Ben had a major crush on her


    instantly.


    "No," Ben averted his gaze from Venus immediately.


    Perhaps he had fallen in love with her at that moment, "What''s your name? Where is your home? I''ll


    take you home. Your family should be worried about your disappearance."


    The girl shook her head repeatedly, "I... don''t know."


    "Don''t you remember? Did you get hurt?" Her miserable appearance at the street corner came


    across his mind, and it seemed that she had suffered a blow.


    "I don''t remember." The girl grabbed the hem of her dress timidly, "I don''t remember anything.


    Please don''t drive me away, okay? I''m hungry and cold..."


    Ben wasn''t so merciless to drive this girl away.


    From that day on, that girl stayed in the Xia''s. She called Ben Brother and herself Venus. Ben tried


    to find her family, but there were more than one thousand people named Venus.


    His careful investigation failed to bring Venus back to her family. It was possible that Venus made a


    mistake about her name. Whatever, she was still his Venus.


    She should be at college at this age. Ben advised sending her to college, but Venus refused and


    would like to stay at home.


    Ben became eager to go home after work. Whenever he pushed the door open, a bright smile


    greeted him, "Brother, you''re back."


    "Yes."


    "Brother, I made fried eggs today. Why not have a try?" Venus came out with a te of ck fried


    eggs. Obviously, this girl had no gift for cooking.


    To encourage Venus, Ben nodded and ate up the dishes she cooked.


    Ben tried to take Venus as his little sister. But that night, he was drunk, and Venus looked after him.


    Ben pushed Venus on the bed, "Venus, I love you."


    Ben didn''t remember how Venus answered. What he remembered was that Venus didn''t resist.


    The next day, Ben med himself for hurting Venus, ''How little is she!'' However, Venus looked at


    Ben with a smile.

    "Brother, will you marry me?"


    "Yes." Ben answered without hesitation.
