After Xia Ruya left, Old Mrs. Wen returned to her room angrily while Wen Haowen left.

A deafening silence filled the air in the living room.

Old Mr. Wen sat on the couch with deepened wrinkles which were much more obvious than usual. He was utterly dejected and seemed to be deep in thought.

Wen Xinya sat beside him quietly, filled with a mix of emotions.

She glanced at the majestic Wen Family mansion and found that the chandelier added to the emptiness of the room, casting sharp rays into every corner of the living room, giving off a cold and intimidating vibe.

This was a day that she had been looking forward to and was part of her plan.

Ning Shuqian would soon be chased out of the Wen Family and she would no longer pose a threat to Wen Xinya. Xia Ruya had also lost the favor of the Wen Family and she could no longer harm Wen Xinya using the twelve years of kinship that she had with the Wen Family.

She could not explain how she felt about the intertwining of the previous and present lifetime. She simply found everything to be cold and cruel.

Old Mr. Wen said, “Ruya may not be the biological child of the Wen Family, but I still treated her as my granddaughter. I didn’t expect that she would resent me this much.”

Her melancholic and shrilling voice of agony and her words of accusation seemed like daggers piercing through his heart.

Wen Xinya listened quietly without answering. At this moment, all Old Mr. Wen needed was someone to listen to him, not give him a solution.

Old Mr. Wen sounded rather forlorn and melancholic. “Xinya, was I really wrong?”

He thought that finding Xia Ruya’s family would be the best compensation to her. Yet, Xia Ruya was clearly telling him that he had been wrong right from the start. He did not expect that Xia Ruya would be so upset with him and blame him for doing so. As if he was the one who had caused her to commit those mistakes.

Wen Xinya raised her head slowly and stared at the elderly man in front of her whose eyes had already become glassed over. “Grandpa, you’re not wrong. The hypocrisy of the human heart is to blame.”

In some aspects, Xia Ruya indeed deserved sympathy and her predicament was indeed pitiful. Furthermore, Old Mr. Wen had indeed taken matters into his own hands and decided Xia Ruya’s life for her, causing it to be jeopardized. Hence, she was in no place to make any comments.

In her previous lifetime, Wen Xinya had also resented Old Mr. Wen and blamed Heaven for her fate.

Having been through a rebirth, Wen Xinya was well aware that the Wen Family used to pamper Xia Ruya and dote on her. However, the fact that she had become the illegitimate daughter of the Xia Family was just a change in her lifestyle and did not have a direct impact on her life.

However, Xia Ruya shouldn’t have been greedy or manipulated others to get what she wanted.

Old Mrs. Wen’s love for Xia Ruya had become a tool for her to use in order to gain sympathy from Old Mr. Wen. It had become her trump card, and there was no one whom she could blame for the predicament that she had landed herself in.
