Come With Me

Chapter 59 The Third Party

I was still not used to the enthusiasm of strangers, so I followed her into the room just out of politeness.

The dinner was ready and aunt took me to the table.

At that time, many ideas flashed through my mind. I even remembered the scene in novels and TV series that I was used by Vann to disguise as his girlfriend and lie to his parents.

I looked at Vann with inquiry and wanted to know why the present scene happened. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Auntie must have sensed my doubts. She sat next to me and looked at me kindly.

She kept holding my hand.

"It's normal that you don't know me. But I have already known you since a long time ago."

I stared at her and studied her carefully. Time had left traces on her face. Her age was exposed to the wrinkles around her eyes, and there were a few gray hairs on her hair, but she was still in a good shape. The smile on her face was sincere.

But no matter how hard I tried to recall, I still couldn't remember that I've met this woman before.

"Do you remember how old you were when your father left you?"

My father again. I took a deep breath and said, "it should be when I was ten."

She gave a sigh, "It's been twelve years in a twinkling of an eye. It's such a long time, but the scene in that year is still vivid in my mind. I have seen you in pictures, and your father often took them out to see. He often praised you for being clever and sensible."

"You know Xeon?"

She nodded slowly, "My name is Lully Qin. I wonder if you have heard of this name before."

I shook my head, "No."

"Your mother only told you that your father eloped with someone else. Didn't she tell you who he was with?"

"It doesn't matter who the woman is. Nothing can change the fact that he betrayed us."

Lully lowered her head and squeezed my hand.

"Let me tell you, who did he elope with? This woman is in front of you. Her name is Lully."

I opened my eyes wide and couldn't believe what I just heard. I tried to pull my hand out of Lully's hand.

"Is that really you?"

Lully nodded her head seriously and said, "Yes, I am the one whom your father eloped with."

I stood up and took a deep breath, trying to calm down.

"Why are you here? Where is Xeon? Did he abandon you and throw himself into another woman's arms? "

In my eyes, Lully isn't a gentle elder anymore. She is just a mistress who took away all my happiness in my childhood. I hate her even more.

"Elopement is just a lie we made together to confuse everyone else, including our own family, and there is something hidden."

"What's the fact you wish to hide? The fact is that he abandoned us. He abandoned his responsibility. Why do you come back to say that there is the fact you wish to hide?"

I just can't control my anger. My resentment accumulated over the years are now wanting to vent to this woman who ruined all my happiness.

"In fact, it was a top secret till now, but it was unfair to you, and it was also unfair to your father's personal image. After Vann investigated your situation in the past few years, I want to explain to you that you don't want your father's image to be left with only sin in your heart."

I bit my lips hard and said, "I'm used to it these years. I don't need you to explain for him. If you really want to be forgiven, never appear in my life ever again."

I turned around and wanted to leave, but Lully stopped me, "Wait, little Star."

I froze where I was, tears streaming down uncontrollably with the grievances and sadness over the years.

Lully's voice choked with emotion. "Do you remember this name? When you were a child, your father liked to call you like this. He said that you were the brightest star in his life. "

I covered my ears and shook my head, "stop. I don't want to hear it. Stop talking about that man."

Lully walked to me, took off my hands from my ears, and hugged me behind. "My child, please give me some time. I'll tell you a story. After that, no matter how you react, I'll not stop you."

Vann stood in front of me and said, "Jasmine, please let my mother finish her words. She has been looking for you these years."

Lully didn't let go of my hand and put her face on my back.

"That year, after your father graduated from the police school, in order to meet the need, he did not join the police team formally, but chose to hide his identity and be a thread breaker. Even your mother doesn't know who he really is. "

I slowly turned my head to look at Lully behind me. I want to know if the story is true.

Although I was a little kid at that time, I still remembered that my father was a person who liked to hang out with some disreputable people.

And I don't remember what serious work Xeon has to do.

"Twelve years ago, there was a big case in our city. Your father was ordered to set him up in any case. These gangsters are very popular, so your father must leave home."

"In order to make it safe and not to let anyone find out the background of him, we must keep his identity a secret. So we have to lie that we elope to get away with you temporarily without a deadline."

And I, at that time, had to take care of each other and left my husband and my child with the same reason. "

Lully said, looking apologetically at Vann.

"But the task was more than a year. It went well and now. But because of my mistakes, the crime is suspicious."

Lully raised her hand, and the missing finger made people's heart ache.

"My fingers were cut off by them then."

Speaking of this, Lully closed her eyes tightly. She looked as if she could still feel the fear and pain then.

"I thought I would die and never come back. But your father risked his life to save me out regardless of his own safety."

I finally couldn't help but ask, "You've been back for so many years. What about him? Where is Xeon?"

Tears trickled down Lully's face and she shook her head. "He never came back. He never came back. There was no news about him..."

"Dead..." Tears streamed down my face. I blamed him for abandoning me, but I never wanted him to die.

I couldn't help but feel sad.
