Chapter 20 - A Mothers Love (1/2)

Madam Li was overwhelmed by all the news that she felt light-hearted. She had no luck trying to look for her son. Feeling tired, she left the party early and decided to wait for him at home instead.

Kris was notified that her mother left the party early but he continued to stay. He was one of the biggest donators and it would look bad to leave early. He never liked these types of occasions, but it was part of his responsibility.

When he got home, he did not expect her to be still awake when he got home.

”So, you are finally home huh?” She looked up to see him walking to her.

Kris felt like something was off about the atmosphere. His mother was sitting on the sofa, patiently waiting for him.

”What are you waiting for? Sit down. I need to talk to you.”

Kris took off his outer suit, set it on the side of the sofa as he sat across from her.

”Why are you still awake? Are you not feeling well?” He asked.

”Of course I am not well. I am getting older each day and you are still not bringing home any grandchildren.”

”Mom…” Kris softened his voice.

Madam Li stood up to sat next to Kris. With solemn eyes, she stared at her son.

She got into an accident when Kris was just 5 years old. It was a drunk driver who crashed into her car when she was coming back home from a trip.

The driver died at the scene and she was put into a coma for 8 years. The doctors said that she will most likely never wake up, but the Li family was rich so they continue her treatment and hope that one day she would wake up.

After 8 years, she finally woke up. Many things had happened by then. But most of all, her sweet little son was no longer a child but a grown man. She was happy to see her son strong and handsome like her husband.

However, she later found out about the condition of Kris. And that was that he would rage and be very aggressive whenever a touched by a woman.

It hurt her that she cannot hug her son and give him the love of a real mother that he missed for 8 years. She had pressured her husband and his family to tell her what happened to her son. However, they kept it very secretive from her. She knew that it was the probably the Li family that did something to her sweet child.

She pushed hard for Kris to go into therapy and he had made progress as he continued to grow up. But even so, till today, Kris still despise the touch of a woman, she included. She hoped that if Kris felt the attraction of a woman, he will start not despising the touch of a woman.

When her husband died 3 years ago, Kris took full control of the Li conglomerate. It was another traumatic moment for both of them. Madam Li did not want Kris to take over such a business since he was still going through his own trauma, but she knew that it was partly her fault. She only gave birth to one child, and she loved him dearly.
