Chapter 1292
The Woman From Hell
Petra took me to the door of a bedroom. " This is the largest room in the villa and with the best lighting. Your dad prepared it many years ago for you
to stay in. Although he knew you'd feel sickened by the fact that Cindy once stayed here, he still wished that you'd accept it. But don't worry, your dad
renovated the room. As he was afraid that you wouldn't like the design. he even asked Theo about the interior styles you prefer. He took Munchkin to
Zenon to study the design of the house you had in Zenon as a point of reference.â
Petra took me into the bedroom after saying that.
The room was huge and looked to be a hundred square feet, equivalent to a suite of an ordinary family. It was plainly decorated, just the way that I
liked it.
I put Munchkin on the bed and covered him with a blanket.
Petra said with a smile, "Your dad and I picked the clothes in the closet. I notice that you tend to dress simpler, so I bought them according to your
preference. I'm not sure if you like them or not. It's okay if you don't. Your dad and I can buy new cnes for you. Your dad also bought the bags and
accessories when he went abroad. I know Theo is really nice to you and you might not fancy these things, but as parents, we wish to give you the
best.
"We've made plenty of mistakes over the years and wish to do everything we can to compensate for them. I know you can't completely forgive us yet,
and we won't force you to be close to us. As long as you promise to visit us when you're free, we'll be more than happy.â
Petra could not help but sob when she got to the end of the sentence.
I held her and said softly, "Stop crying. It won't be good for your health. We'll be fine."
I knew this whole time that everybody would be fine as long as I could let go.
Perhaps Cassey was right. There was no changing the things that had happened. They were my parents. No matter how much I resented them, I had
no way of cutting off ties with them
It was better to go along with it rather than make everyone suffer.
The hardest thing to cut off in this world was blood ties. Only blood ties could help us find our way back when we were lost. Although I had no feelings
for them, our blood ties remained. In the remaining years to come, I thought I should try and get along with them just like a family.
Petra looked at me, crying and smiling at the same time.
Some things did not need to be articulated clearly, or perhaps even spoken. A gesture or action would do.
I had already thought it through the night I nearly died in the morgue
Life was nothing but a few decades. It would be a waste of life if one did not cherish the moment.
Moreover, one might regret not doing certain things or saying certain words.
I was lucky to survive, so I would live every day for the rest of my life cherishing the people around me and the things I owned.
"It's getting late, You should go to
bed." Petra wiped her tears away.
"What doyou want to have for ~~
tomorrow? I'll make it for you. Si
unchkin happens to not have
schasl tomorrow. Let's stay at home
and-have a meal together asa
faPnily." . to
The smile on her face was bright. She was beyond happy at this moment
I smiled slightly and said, "Anything is fine. I'm not a picky eater."
Although I was not a big eater, I was not picky either and ate basically anything.
Petra smiled. $l make my
specialties tQmorrow and get your
dad to doa few of his too. He cooks
better than me. You tried it the tire
Theo gas hospitalized in South
Vasetine." "Both your cooking is
go5d. _ N
Petra did not say anything else and reminded me to cover myself with a blanket tonight. She was about to leave.
When she walked to the door, she
remembered something and turned
around to ask me with a face fulf of
concern, "You didn't come horne
with Theo. Did you have an &
argument?â
