Chapter 883 Comforting Rory


    Rory has already be tearful. It''s a lot for her to take in, and she can''t help having mixed feelings.


    "Rory, listen to me." The director steps forward, wanting to exin to Rory, but thetter takes a step


    back with a sullen look.


    "You don''t need to exin anything. Since you''re a liar, I am unwilling to hear anything from you." Rory


    feels she was like a fool for the past decade. It turns out that the director who has been taking care of


    her is her mother. The truth is like a thunderbolt from the blue, which stabs into her internal organs and


    shatters them into pieces.


    Driven by fury, Rory directly rushes out. Her intention ofing here is to inform the director about


    Miya''s condition. However, it''s out of her expectation that she happens to know such a shocking truth.


    She panics after realizing that her mother has always been deceiving her.


    When the director walks forward to hold her hand, Rory angrily shakes her hand away. "Don''t touch


    me. You aren''t qualified to do this!" She feels hard to ept the fact that the director she has respected


    for over ten years is her biological mother.


    Anyone who encounters such an absurd thing will be unable to ept reality.


    "If you don''t let go of me, I will nevere back again, and I am leaving right now." Rory suddenly


    starts to hate this ce. The director has no choice but to let go of her hand. John also realizes that


    something is wrong, so he chases after Rory.


    He knows that whenever Rory is unhappy, she wille to the small hillside behind the orphanage and


    spend some time on her own. It should be no exception this time. Rory is indeed here right now. With a


    grim look, she keeps fiddling with the leaves in her hands. She is already overwhelmed with sadness


    and distress.


    Following her, John also rushes over.


    "Why do you sit here alone in a trance?"


    "Because I can''t ept such a ridiculous thing." Rory is depressed, but she can do nothing to change


    reality.

    "I know you''re feeling upset now, but you should think about the whole thing from a different angle.


    Actually, the director did all this to protect you," John says with good intentions. He feels it''s necessary


    for him tofort Rory and help her forgive the director.


    "Protect me from what? Could it be that my biological father will send someone to kill me?" Rory only


    feels that what the director says to her is nonsense. "She didn''t want to recognize me as her daughter,


    so she adopted me and never allowed me to call her mother. Actually, she hates me."


    After saying that, she cries even louder. At the thought of her unknown future, she bes more


    unsettling. She is at a loss as to what to do if she leaves this orphanage.


    John reaches out and holds her hand.


    "You will be the happiest person in the world. I''ve always by your side to take good care of you, and


    you will be happy forever."


    Rory looks at John with expectation and wipes the tears off her face. "Then will you stay by my side


    forever?"


    Taking a nce at Rory, John begins to hesitate.


    When Rory asks John this question seriously, she is scared that John will suddenly leave her one day,


    especially after Miya appears. In the past, she always felt that John was docile like a cute rabbit.


    However, things are different now, for he has be more strong-minded. She even feels that John


    has found his true self, and it''s Miya who helps to quicken this process.


    Should she feel gratified or should she continue to worry about their rtionship?


    Hearing Rory''s question, John wants to blurt out a positive answer. However, the word catches in his


    throat and he remains silent for a long while.


    He doesn''t know why he has be like this. When he is about to give Rory an answer, Miya''s face


    suddenly appears in his mind. He immediately takes a step back in fear. Why does he think of that


    woman again?


    His reaction frightens Rory even more. "Is there anything wrong with you? I just asked you this


    question casually, for I know that you will never leave me." Then she throws herself into his embrace,


    with her arms around his waist. She holds him so tightly, as if he will disappear as soon as she lets him


    go.


    "I know you are the nicest person I''ve ever met. Promise me that you won''t leave me no matter what


    happens, because I can''t live without you." After saying this, Rory lies in his arms and closes her eyes,


    pretending to be asleep.


    Recently, she has never had time to take a good rest, for Miya''s stuff upies most of her time.


    However, at the thought that she can lie in John''s arms at ease, she immediately feels happy and


    satisfied.


    Hearing Rory''s words, John gradually calms down. He shouldn''t have thought so much about Miya.


    Instead, he should put all of his attention on Rory, because she is the one who has always been with


    him. After Miya recovers, he will make himself clear with her so that Rory won''t be hurt again.


    After all, the fact that the director is her biological mother is a terrible shock to Rory. She won''t be able


    to take another blow if he chooses to leave her.


    "Then what are you going to do with your mother?" Knowing that Rory is not asleep, John asks her.


    "I don''t want to discuss this matter now." She has always been longing to see her biological mother, but


    it never urs to her that the director is her mum. This is so astonishing that she fears to face the


    director now.


    "Actually, I think this is not a bad thing. We used to think that we were orphans, and we depended on


    each other. But the situation is different now. You have your own rtive, and she did all this to protect


    you. I suggest you try to understand her more."


    John tries his best tofort Rory again.


    "Why are you putting in a good word for her? It doesn''t match your character." Rory widens her eyes


    and looks at him with curiosity.


    "I''m just being fair." To tell the truth, he isn''t in favor of the director or the things done by her. John then


    continues, "She is your mother after all, and this fact can never be changed. It''s better for you two to be


    honest with each other instead of being at odds all the time. Don''t hold grudges against your mother.


    You also know that she has always been nice to you."


    "Well, that depends. Since even you plead for mercy for her, I will stop ming her, but..."


    An important thing suddenly urs to John, and he stands up in a hurry. How is Miya now? The


    director always intends to kill her, and now the situation has be even worse.


    "Let''s hurry back now." Realizing the severity of this matter, John immediately pulls up Rory and is


    about to rush to the ward.


    "Why did you be so anxious all of a sudden?" Rory still wants to spend more time with John.


    However, John considers Miya''s safety as the top priority now.


    "To protect you, your mother hates Miya''s guts, so we can''t leave her in the ward alone." Although this


    is an emergency. John still tries to look calmer, for he doesn''t want Rory to continue thinking nonsense.


    Rory suddenly thinks of this and immediately follows him away.
