The pair went to the lounge beside the ICU, and Lin Wanwan watched Lu Zhanbei finish his food .
“Mr . Lu…”
She dragged her words as she prepared to fire away . However, Lu Zhanbei was always one step ahead . “Madam Yu is actually your mother . Sorry for telling you so late . ”
Damn!
Lin Wanwan glared at him . It felt like she punched the pillow .
He apologized and told her the truth before she could even ask a thing . There was no way left to scold him for it .
This man was way too sly!
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
Lu Zhanbei sighed against her fierce questioning . “I’m afraid that it would put you in a tough spot . ”
“You thought that I would have a hard time deciding between you and her?”
“That’s right . ”
Lin Wanwan came to the realization that Lu Zhanbei was over-thinking a lot .
The more one cares, the more one fears losing out .
“There is no decision to make because she doesn’t compare to you . Let me ask you, when did she and Lu Zhengyu get together?”
“When you were five . ”
Lin Wanwan froze for a moment, seemingly lost in thoughts . “Which means… she didn’t go missing but got together with your father?”
“That’s right . ”
Lin Wanwan mocked . “I guess she deserved to be sorry . ”
Leaving her young daughter for another man, not visiting for a whole decade .
What a heartless woman .
Lu Zhanbei wasn’t a fan of her furious expression . “She loved her daughter . ”
Lin Wanwan laughed out of anger . “Don’t treat me like an innocent child . ”
At this point, Lu Zhanbei decided to tell her everything he knew .
“You were always curious about why I helped you when Tao Xinyue sent you to Tang Chen . The answer is that your mother asked for my help . ”
Lin Wanwan’s expression changed a little .
“Madam Yu helped me out when I was starting my business, and that’s why I decided to return the favor when she asked me to take care of you . I found it burdensome in the past, but come to think of it, I should thank her for sending my future wife to my side . ”
Lin Wanwan felt her emotions changing . It was a complicated feeling .
“Also, the dress you received on your eighteenth birthday was made by her . ”
Lin Wanwan felt that the knot in her heart had been untied, but it was still a confusing matter .
“But… why?”
Lu Zhanbei understood her despite her senseless question .
“She didn’t mean to abandon you . I don’t know the details, and I didn’t bother to check on it . All I know is that the old man liked your mom and kept her hostage . ”
It was a twisted and wicked way of forcing his love .
Lin Wanwan tightened her fist as she continued, “Does she like your dad?”
Lu Zhanbei shook his head .
“No matter how sincere he was, your mother had no feelings for him . When your mother just got there, she tried to escape several times but was always caught . Maybe it was his desire to conquer, the old man paid even more attention to her and denied her of any possibility of escape . ”
Lin Wanwan’s laugh was bitter . “I can finally see why your father hated me so much . ”
Her presence constantly reminded Lu Zhengyu that the woman he loved had tangoed with another man, and she was the fruit of that past .
Lu Zhanbei patted Lin Wanwan’s stiff shoulder . He knew that she had to get through this herself .
