Chapter 373 - Isnt My Wife (1/2)

Elizabeth gazed at the unfamiliar scenery outside. She has traveled the world yet she has not clue of her current whereabouts. The building design looked historical western style but with a hint of modernity. They were main in shade of brown, cream, biage with red rooftop.

'Am I in Europe or the West? The house style looked as if I'm in Spain but why does the street look as if I'm in Mexico. Where is Yun Shen taking me? I thought we were heading back to China. Could this be the mainland of the island were stayed?'

”Li Zi, is something wrong?” Yun Shen turned to face the girl when he notices his brow knit slightly together.

”Where are we? You said your taking me back to my family?” Elizabeth responded ignoring Yun Shen's concern and question.

Yun Shen's heart was breaking into more piece when he felt the coldness in the girl's manners towards him. He let it be for now for at the end of the day, once he finds Petrovich, she'll be running back into his arms. ”I have something to show you first and I hope you'll be patient about it.”

”Shen, you promise to let me see my family?” Elizabeth repeated her question once again and continue to give the same cold treatment.

”Don't worry, you'll soon she them. I'm sure you already notice your father's men following us.”

She didn't need to answer for it was written in her face that she was aware about the men following them. She was not in the mood to act kind of the situation she was in a rush to meet her family and find a way away from all of them. Her biggest concern at the moment was also to find Professor Petrovich.

After a few hours drive, Elizabeth was taken aback when she saw the beautiful field filled with various winter flowers. In the middle of the field stood a humongous tree still covered with its bright green leaves. The tree was situated perfectly and a path was paved right through it.

”Shen, where are we?” She curiously asked puzzled by everything.

”I want you to meet someone important.” Yun Shen responded as he grab hold of the girl's hand and escorted her out of the car whilst the driver opened the door for them.

”Who?” Elizabeth spoke with a surprise look on his face.

”You'll soon see.” Yun Shen responded.

They both came out of the car as they walked down the path heading towards the tree. Walking down the path felt like one was walking down the aisle and the tree was the altar. Elizabeth's heart was beating at such a rapid pace that she could hear it's beating.

”Are you alright?” Yun Shen asked when he noticed the girl seems to be out of herself.

Elizabeth turned slowly still dumbfounded of everything, ”Shen, who are we meeting?”

”The reason why I exist and why Little Yan is here.”

Her face blanked when she heard Yun Shen response. It was not hard for one to understand what he meant by his riddle like words. To put it directly, they'll be meeting Little Yan's mother. But, what could he possibly mean by: the reason why I exist?

As they come closer to the tree, Elizabeth notice a tombstone and fresh flowers were placed around it. Her eyes widen when she saw the tomb and realize who the person it but found it hard to speak her mind. ”She-Shen, Little Yan's, her mother, she…”

”Yes, she passed away 5 years ago and Little Yan have no memory of her.” Yun Shen answered without any secrets.
