664 Youre Scaring me (2/2)

Xin Suyin sneered, 'Cheap people like you don't deserve the luxury of love. If you wanted to be a small-time actress, you should have stuck with that. Who told you to go and seduce my daughter's life partner?'

'I don't know why you hate my mom but I promise you that I'm not trying to snatch anyone. That relationship ended for me already. Besides, I never seduced anyone.'

'Listen up, little girl! You better disappear or I promise you, I'll make you regret ever been born.'

Those were the last words she said to her. Who knew she would really end up regretting been born? And now seeing her again, affected her. Seeing Zhou Jinhai, Liu Nuan, Zhou Liqiu, none of them brought such resentment and helplessness. But this woman literally pushed her to death, how could she not get affected by her sight?

Darren held her shoulders and shook her body to get her attention. Xiu's eyes slowly focused on his face. She only realized that she had tears in her eyes when Darren's warm hands touched her face.

”Sweets, you're scaring me now.”

Xiu clenched her chest saying with difficulty, ”Regan, I can't breathe. Can we go out for a while?”

”Of course!” replied Darren without any hesitation as he rushed her out of the hall. He brought her to the garden and wanted to put her coat on her shoulders but she refused to take it. ”Your body is cold already. And don't forget you have to take care of another life now.”

That reminder made Xiu take the coat from him. She was breathing heavily. In cold winter, she was sweating as well. She turned around and looked up at Darren as she asked, ”Can you hug me? I need you.”

Darren frowned slightly but gladly embraced her. Even when he hugged her, he could feel how tense her body was. Seeing her like this really startled him. Especially because it reminded him of Gigi's warning, 'Your wife needs you, Mr. Salvay. Something is eating her inside and making her hollow. You're the only warmth that is filling that hollowness. You're the only one who can save her.'

Darren suddenly felt regret that he completely looked over Xiu's mental state when he heard about her pregnancy. He should have remembered, how difficult it was for her to take this new responsibility in her condition.

He wanted to ask her why she reacted this way but he didn't want to push her either. That's why he was silently hugging her while caressing her head.

”Xin Suyin.” She suddenly said out that woman's name.

”Huh?”

”I didn't think I'd see her here,” said Xiu.

”She is not only Liu Nuan's mother but she is also Uncle Zi's cousin sister.”

Xiu looked up at Darren as she snickered, ”Never thought that an angel like Ah-Xin would actually have a monster like her as a sister.”
