Chapter 385 - Regretting her actions from the past. (2/2)

These words were enough to strike Rebecca hard. She has always thought her decision to be right. But now coming across the other face of the coin, she came to understand that her thoughts were not as right as she had thought it to be.

Crouching down she almost felt that she has lost all her life aims and merits in one go. Like now there has been nothing left in her life that could give her the contentment she needed.

Deming casted one last glance at the scene and then too left to look after Lifen. Though she has said that she was fine, he still knew that soon she would need someone to share her heartfelt words. The actual feeling that she was feeling inside.

Xue Ping Ruo, who has witnessed everything, felt a little bad for her aunt. Looking at her crouching down on the floor, she came forward to support her so that they could leave. She thought that Rebecca was only pretending to be sad at this moment as she has known how tough she has wanted to take revenge on Lifen, so there was no way all her emotions can be true.

But the old man knew the reality. This time the woman who had fallen down was not the one who has come forward to take revenge but was a fallen mother, who was regretting her past actions heavily. Looking at her in such a pity state, he said ”That's for what I have warned you in the past and even when you have come again. I have said that you will regret it and here you are regretting it. Now I can only say that leave the revengeful path for which you are aiming at. Hope that now you can see the best in the picture and lead a good life”

He said and then turned and left. There can't be anything he can do. In the past he never wanted to bring this secret out thinking that it would be painful for Lifen, But now he understood how strong her granddaughter was!

”Aunt! It's okay, don't be disheartened. We can think of something different”, Xue Ping Ruo said as she helped Rebecca up.

”RuoRuo, let's leave first. I want to go home. I don't want to be here now. I want to go back and take some rest”, Rebecca said impatiently. She was feeling a suffocation inside. It was like if she did not leave this place then she would die.

Her niece nodded and then quickly took her away. While leaving, her eyes went to look up in the direction where both Deming and Lifen had left earlier. There was an evil intent in those eyes as if it was pledging inside something malicious.

Back in Lifen's room,

When Deming came in, he could not find Lifen anywhere around. ”Little Cat! Little Cat!” he called but there was no response. He turned to look in the washroom but she was not there. He then turned to look in the balcony and again she was not there.

Getting slightly worried, he was about to go out and check in the other rooms when suddenly he heard a soft sobbing voice coming out from the closet.

Instantly he knew what would have happened. Refilling a glass with water, he instantly turned to walk into the closet. Getting in, as he has thought Lifen was there sitting at the corner; sobbing looking at some picture frame.

Looking at her in such a vulnerable condition his heart ached. ”Little cat!” he called out softly as he walked to her and then extended her glass of water. ”Here take this. Don't think too much about it. Everything will be fine soon”

Saying this he caressed her hair to soothe her inner pain. ”Deming, how can she … how can she say she abandoned me because of just a misunderstanding. Am I that …”

”Shhh … don't blame yourself. Everything will be fine soon”
