Chapter 315
Nelissa didn’t know that Qi Jiying used to live and grow up in Bekki. When she was very young, Nelissa knew that she didn’t have a father. She used to feel wronged, but now she became a single mother and understood the bitterness in it. She didn’t blame Qi Jiying for never mentioning the past.
Nelissa was full of curiosity about her mother’s hometown. When she mentioned going to Bekki to recuperate, there was obviously a great emotional fluctuation on his face.
She was happy.
Qi Jiying had not gone back to Bekki for many years. After giving birth to Nelissa, she did not dare to go back. At that time, she promised that she would leave Nelissa to the Su family, and then she would leave. She would never reconcile with her child for the rest of her life, but she was really reluctant. The feeling of having a child for ten months was indeed there. She could not be separated and finally ran away secretly.
She owed a granddaughter of the Su family and felt sorry for her parents in Ming City.
Qi Ziying’s heart ached. He looked at Nelissa and asked, “Who asked me to go to Bekki to recuperate?”
Nelissa wanted to say that it was Edward, but considering that Sonya didn’t know about it, she thought carefully and said, “Yes… Mr. Su. I heard from Mr. Su that you knew each other before, but you didn’t tell me that you grew up in Bekki.”
After a long silence, he said softly, “So that’s what he told you. Is there anything else he wants to say?”
Nelissa thought for a while and shook her head.
Qi Chuying let out a sigh of relief and asked hesitantly, “Then will he take care of you?”
Nelissa smiled and said sincerely, “I’m very good at taking care of her.” If she took too much care of her, even Charles would take good care of her. Was it a very enthusiastic family?
Qi Ziying nodded and sighed with emotion, “That’s good, that’s good.” The decades of sins piled up in his heart seemed to be relieved, but he was much more relaxed. His eyes were shining. He turned to look at the sky outside the window and said to Nelissa, “Which month is it now? Can I get better in the early snow?”
When Su Yuecheng passed away, it was Chuxue.
Qi Chuying still remembered that Bekki was particularly cold that year. She thought that the world had been frozen, but the cruel thing was that she had been walking when she was dead. The child in her belly grew up and killed her. It was painful and happy.
Nelissa knew that he was very anxious and wanted to take care of himself as soon as possible. She quickly comforted him in a soft voice, “There is still time. You will definitely get better. I will accompany you to see the snow.”
Qi Ziying smiled. With his daughter around, he didn’t seem to be so worried anymore. “Nelissa, I want to go to Bekki as soon as possible.”
Nelissa nodded. “Okay, I’ll arrange it quickly.”
But his last words shocked Nelissa. She didn’t know what to do. He said, “I haven’t told you. Your father and I met each other in Bekki. There are your grandfather, grandmother, aunt, and uncle there. They have been worried about you all these years. I want you to see them this time when we go back to Bekki. Then we can live here. Let Zayden and Susan come over too. That’s your home.”
Nelissa couldn’t digest anything and was very confused. She only heard something and said, “… won’t come back to Haleston City?”
Qi Guoying shook his head and said sadly, “Your family and my family are all there.”
Nelissa was completely panicked. What about her and Edward? Who was her grandfather and grandmother? And who was her father?
***
Edward didn’t leave his mother’s old house until the afternoon. He had just finished talking with Old Mr. Hales. It was very difficult to persuade an old man who only wanted to hold a grandson. Therefore, Edward was beaten a lot. This time, Old Mr. Hales was really angry and hit him very hard.
The driver who was waiting at the door opened the door for Edward. Old Mr. Hales, who was following behind, immediately snorted and said, “Don’t worry about him. Just let him go back. Get out of the way!” Old Mr. Hales held up the cane in his hand and almost hit Edward. Fortunately, he dodged quickly. He had been punished a lot in the study just now, so he knew how powerful he was.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Old Mr. Hales’s walking stick was made for him by Edward before. There was even a dragon head engraved in the shape of Old Mr. Hales’s hand at the top wood and the armrest. The quality of the metal was extremely hard.
“Don’t block my way in the future. I will knock you every time I see you.” Although Old Mr. Hales had been persuaded by Edward, he was still angry and had other thoughts in his heart.
Edward straightened his back, curved his lips, and said with a smile, “You haven’t cooled down yet? The crutch was almost broken by you just now.”
“Don’t make fun of me!” Old Mr. Hales went over with his cane. This time, Edward didn’t dodge and was hit hard again. The driver next to him was so scared that his heart was in his mouth.
Old Mr. Hales was not used to it at all. It was true that he spoiled Edward, but he had been beaten up a lot when he was young. He was not blindly spoiled and educated. “I’m serious. I don’t have the energy to care about your other private affairs, but I have to get my two great-grandsons back. Otherwise, don’t come back to see me in the future. If you want to see me, I will bring the two children here.”
After that, Old Mr. Hales got in the car. Edward bent down and blocked the door in time. He was not afraid of Old Mr. Hales’s glare at all. “Where are you going?”
The old man remained silent.
Edward was afraid that the old man couldn’t wait to see her for Nathan, so he reminded her, “Don’t be in a hurry to find Nelissa and scare her. I’ve got a wife, and your great-grandson is indispensable…”
Before he could finish his words, Old Mr. Hales slammed the door shut. Fortunately, Edward reacted well and withdrew his hand in time, so he was not caught.
“Drive!” Old Master called the driver in the car. He did not care about Edward.
The driver didn’t dare to say more. He looked at Edward, braced himself to get in the car and drove away. Watching the handsome man in the rearview mirror getting farther and farther away, the driver whispered to the old man sitting behind him, “Mr. Hales, do you really not care about Young Mr. Hales?”
There was no car in the old villa halfway up the mountain.
Old Mr. Hales did not speak, but he was still angry in his heart. By right, Nelissa was the daughter-in-law of the Hales family. Although she had not been officially married, she had at least gotten the marriage certificate. Now, because she was the granddaughter of the Su family, they probably did not want the two of them to be together. If he wanted to recognize the two great-grandsons, he had to consider whether the Su family would compete with him. At present, they could not fall out with each other. Otherwise, if they fought for the right to raise the two children, their mother would have a great advantage. The Hales family might not be able to win the Su family.
Old Mr. Hales was very upset. How could the Su family show dissatisfaction with such an excellent man? Only then did he feel that their granddaughter was not worthy of his grandson!
When the car stopped near the kindergarten, it was the end of school. Old Mr. Hales soon saw Nelissa coming out with two beautiful children. He had seen Nelissa in the hospital before, and he remembered that she was a very young woman. Now with the two children, she looked more like a brother and a sister.
