Chapter 331 - Kindness (1/2)
”What happened to that granny?” Anya asked.
Aiden's face looked colder when talking about the old woman that Anya was trying to help. ”She received money from someone. She's told to take you to a secluded and dark place in the underground parking lot of the hospital,”
Anya was silent to hear that. She did not think that such an old woman could commit a crime.
”Anya, have you ever thought what would have happened had I not arrived on time?” Aiden's eyes filled with anger as he stared at his wife.
Anya could only lower her head, not daring to look at her husband.
”You were just left on the side of the road because those people found out that I found your location from CCTV on the highway. They're afraid I'll find them if they keep taking you. In the end, they decided to leave you and run away. If I couldn't find you, you might have been taken to another hospital. Once your and Deny's kidney compatibility test is successful, he will perform surgery on you right away. Do you think you can still survive?”
”Those compatibility tests, whether successful or not, they will never let you come back alive. Are you aware of that?” Aiden asked.
Even if the compatibility test failed, these people would not want to take the risk of being reported by Anya. They would immediately kill Anya to eliminate the victim as well as the witness…
”I… I'm sorry. I didn't think about it carefully. I only intended to help the grandmother because she is old,” Anya said in a low voice.
When she heard Aiden's explanation, Anya felt really scared. If Aiden didn't pick her up today, she would still die regardless of the compatibility test's result.
Aiden sat on the edge of the bed and reached out his hand to gently caress Anya's face. ”I know you mean well. But I only ask you to be more careful and not easily trust others,”
Anya could only be silent. She closed her lips tightly and finally said in a low voice, ”Why don't other people live by just doing good? Why should they commit crimes?”
Aiden was silent for a moment. This little wife was thinking about why other people couldn't do good and decided to do bad things…
Didn't Anya know that everyone in this world was basically born evil?
There was not a single person in this world who had a pure heart. They were more concerned with their own interests and themselves…
”Anya, I hope you are not just a good person. I also want you to grow up, be more responsible and be careful. Like when you forgive Raisa or maybe the grandmother that you just helped, it's not kindness but stupidity. Ignorance is also bad. You have to understand what is good and bad,” Aiden said calmly.
Anya felt a little disappointed and she asked Aiden, ”What does real kindness look like then?”
”If you can't help other people, at least you don't make things difficult for them. It's like seeing a robber, although you can't help fighting them, you can call the police from the side. Isn't that also kindness? You don't have to cry when you see other people sad, but you shouldn't laugh at them either…”
Aiden paused for a moment and used himself as an example. ”Just look at me. As the CEO of a large company, at least I will still pay their salaries on time even if I can't give them a raise. I don't have to always help other people, but I won't make it difficult for them either,”
Anya blinked her eyes. ”As simple as that?”
”As simple as that. If you want to be a good person, do whatever you can. But you also have to remember that you shouldn't put yourself in risk and harm when doing good for others,” Aiden said.
”I understand,” Anya nodded her head obediently.
”Really?” Aiden looked at her intently.
Anya immediately smiled at her husband. ”Thank you for teaching me, Teacher. I'm glad I learned from you,”
”Who do you want to be called a teacher... Call me husband,” Aiden pinched Anya's nose with exasperation.
”My husband, my husband, my husband...” Anya called him three times in a row. At the last call, Anya deliberately extended her call, causing Aiden to melt.
”Geez,” Aiden lifted Anya's chin gently and kissed her lips.
