Chapter 182 - A childs pain (1/2)
”Today, I finally found out why my mother hates me. Honestly I don't know if I should hate her for blaming me for something I have no control over or I should understand her pain. Her pain of giving birth to me.”
Liam frowned in confusion. ”What are you talking about?” He asked with concern evident in his voice.
”I broke down today because I got into an argument with my mother. I asked her why she hates me. And she did….” Ying Sheng trailed off.
She swallowed the bile that was forming at the back of her throat.
”I'm a product of r.a.p.e….”
Ying Sheng paused and Liam felt the air suck out of his throat. It was like someone was twisting his intestines interrupting blood circulation in his body. His head felt light as he gasped in his shock.
Product of r.a.p.e.
Meaning…..her father is a rapist. Wait so Mr. Ying isn't her father?
Liam had lots of questions but he knew he had to be patient and wait for her to tell him the whole story.
”My dad and mom were once best friends but my dad r.a.p.ed her one night. And I was the product of the r.a.p.e. A stain in her perfect life. How can a stain like me ask to be loved. Giving birth to me was already a punishment for her. So how can I—”
Liam pulled her into his arms as she began to break down into sobs. She grabbed his shirt tightly as let out all her grievances.
”It's okay. It's not your fault. Don't blame yourself.”
Liam said softly into her hair, as he coaxed her. He wished he had a magic power to stop her tears. She didn't deserve it, no one deserves to be blamed for something they had no control over.
He thought she was just a bad girl with family drama but this…..this is awful. How can someone go through all of this? Liam saw Ying Sheng Ina new different light. He no longer saw the strong infamous Miss Ying who didn't care about others's opinions. No, he saw a child who just wanted to be loved but from a young age she was forced to hate herself. Blame herself for something she has no control over.
”You're strong Ying Sheng.” Liam said as he hugged her tighter as if he wanted to engulf her body into his.
How can someone endure so much from such a young age. Since she trusted him with such a big secret, Liam made a decision to never let go of her.
He would make sure that she is always happy. No he wouldn't allow her to go through this again.
”You're not alone anymore Ying Sheng. And yes, that girl committing suicide wasn't your fault. It was never your fault. You were young back then.”
Liam pulled away as he held her shoulders.
”We will get through this together okay?”
Ying Sheng gazed into Liam's eyes and nodded.
”Okay.”
The sound of the door bell ringing snapped them out of their moment. Liam frowned, ”Go freshen up, I will check who is at the door.”
Ying Sheng nodded and Liam smiled softly at her as he walked towards the door.
He looked through the peephole and frowned at the person standing there. He contemplated for a moment before he walked back to the living room.
