259 Ch. 259 Anxiaâs Frustration
Anxia always held Elliot on her lap and let her son cry so much that the boy wet her clothes. Anxia patted her son on the back and kept showering gentle kisses on the childâs head.
Elliotâs crying subsided not long after, and now the atmosphere returned to silence. Anxia thought her son had fallen asleep as there was no reaction after Elliot stopped crying.
When Anxia lowered her head and tilted her face to look at her sonâs face, she could see that his black eyes were still exposed. Anxia still hugged her son and started interrogating Mei Yin about what had happened.
âWho is it? Why did he make my son cry?â
âItâs just like he said. He was your motherâs right-hand man, and also⦠that man was your motherâs lover.â
Anxiaâs brow furrowed; she didnât like hearing this. Getting the news that Loraine Shu was her biological mother was already a heavy blow for her, and now she heard that her mother had a lover while her husband was still alive. Furthermore... if that man was Loraineâs secret lover, then...
âMei Yin, why didnât you tell me from the start?â
âHa?â
If she had known that the person she had just met was the one who had threatened Elliot, Anxia would have killed that man first!
.....
âNo matter what, donât let that person see Elliot again!â Anxia hissed, barely able to control her emotions like a fire devoured ten acres of forest.
Even Mei Yin, who was not afraid of Song Leiâs threatening aura, shuddered at the sight of Anxiaâs blazing sharp eyes.
âI would not mess around with an angry mother,â Mei Yin thought silently. âThat⦠is a bit difficult.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âDid you forget you agreed to sneak into Regnzâs house? Your mother told me to accompany you.â
Anxiaâs jaw tightened upon hearing this. If she and Mei Yin got out of this place and left Elliot in the snake nest alone⦠Anxia doubted she would be able to meet Elliot the next day, and she couldnât count on Jamie to protect Elliot because the poor woman didnât have the power or air of confidence like Mei Yin.
What should she do? She had to ask Loraine to let Mei Yin stay here.
Anxia decides to see her mother and entrusts Elliotâs safety to Mei Yin.
As she expected, her mother refused to hear about it and insisted on sending Mei Yin to join her team.
âI can do it myself. Mei Yin doesnât need to accompany me.â
âI know you donât need anyone elseâs help, but I canât believe you wouldnât do something to trick me.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âXiao Xia, youâve been acting cold towards me lately and trying to go against my plans. I know you love your husband very much and are not willing to disturb your husbandâs brotherâs private life. I canât believe youâre going to do this mission right. You even tried to take my grandson from me.â
âHe is my son!â Anxia growled, looking at her mother angrily. âYouâre the first to take my son away from me!!â No matter how Anxia roared at her mother, Loraine Shu remained indifferent, as if her words were insignificant.
Anxia groaned in frustration but managed to calm herself down. âIf you donât want to be separated from your grandson, you can come with me to London. You donât even want to accept my offer but accuse me of taking your grandson. Then how about you? You took the child I gave birth to from my hands and deceived me these five years, making me think I only gave birth to one child. You canât believe me? I canât even trust you.â
Anxiaâs gaze toward her mother was the fiercest gaze she had ever shown before. When she was still Master Yuâs assassin, Anxia never showed any expression when she killed her target. She only gave a satisfied grin when she heard her victim scream and beg her for mercy.
She was even sure she didnât hate Richard now as much as she had hated Richard two years ago. At that time, she had repeatedly tried to harm Richard, and that man often frustrated her, and she despised him even more. But Richard wasnât her mother.
Initially, the man was just a tool for her revenge plan before she fell in love. Thatâs why Anxia could forget her hatred once she opened her heart to that man.
But another story if that person was her mother. The biological mother who gave birth to her and took care of her before her father was dishonorably discharged. This woman had the heart to separate her from her son, and Anxia was sure this woman knew what Song Lei had done to hurt her grandson.
Whatâs more, what makes her hate her mother even more is...
Anxia took a piece of paper she had brought from the Russian doctorâs house and placed it roughly on her motherâs reading table.
âAre you really my mother? I wish I didnât have a mother like you.â
Loraine glanced at the slightly crumpled paper in surprise. âWhatâs this?â
âTell me. Were you the one who ordered my obstetrician to destroy my uterus?â
Loraineâs eyes widened at that. âHow did you...â a pair of lips that had been open immediately closed tightly as soon as they realized the merciless ferocious gaze from her daughterâs direction.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWHY? WHY DID YOU DO IT?!â
If this place were her home in Kensington, Anxia probably wouldnât be able to hold back her tears. She was too angry, heartbroken, and disappointed in her mother.
She might be able to forgive her mother by tricking her and hiding Elliotâs whereabouts from her. She understood her motherâs reason for worrying that Anxia could not protect and care for two children simultaneously.
Anxia had even prepared herself to accept her mother as she was when she heard from a Russian doctor that Loraine Shu was her birth mother.
But⦠she couldnât accept that her mother had bribed her obstetrician to incise a scar on her uterus!
Because of the wound, now she can no longer have children. Because she couldnât conceive, she cried all night with her husband to grieve and had to see the cloudy look on their daughter.
Anxia and Richard had accepted this fact and had agreed not to get caught up in their grief. Richard didnât blame her, but Anxia blamed herself for thinking all this was karma from her past.
But who would have thought... it turns out her mother was the mastermind behind the damage to her uterus.
No one knew how much effort Anxia had not gotten out of control and attacked the woman directly. If Loraine Shu had not been her birth mother⦠there was no doubt this woman would have lay lifeless the second Anxia returned here.
