【Redemption and Sanity】Ch.9┌The truth┘

[Chapter 9] 

''No Beth. You are my daughter, the daughter of the woman I was in love with for so many years gave me. I sincerely love you and want to get to know you too. I want you to take over the leadership of my underground territory. I can only trust you.'',

''You have other children too, Mister Bai.'',

''Yes, but the twins are able only to work with business. I tried training them but it just doesn't work.'',

''You have another daughter, which is also older than me.'',

''She is like her mother. Cunning, sly she will destroy everything I have made in an instant. I can only trust you because I know you are a good person. Just like your mother.'',

''Don't talk about my mother. Where were you when she needed you? When she gave birth to a child while you were enjoying your money with that fake wife of yours?'',

''I- I didn't know she was pregnant, she left me a note and just disappeared. I searched for you for so many years.'',

''You think I believe that?'',

''Here, have a look.''

he gave me photos of his investigation over the years, he really did search for us everywhere, I was touched by that, but couldn't say a thing.

''Let's assume what you are saying is true. Why did my mother leave you then? There must be a reason.'',

''At that time, my family had forced me to marry Lorene, but I hadn't agreed, your mother assumed I did and she just left me. If she hadn't, things would be different now.'',

he said with sincerity.

The realization of the action I took, was the same as my mother's hit me.

Was it our fate to end alone and scared to be sought out?

No, I did not believe that one bit. I had to fight against it.

''Okay, I believe you. But what exactly do you want from me? To be your assistant while doing your dirty business? You want your bastard to take over the underground so your legal kids and wife were safe? Is that it?.'',
