Mark Of The Destiny - Chapter 265

Lan, “Honey bro, try this Sushi. It’s really yummy.”

Yuyu, “Last time you said it’s the best you ever had, so we got it made for you. Say Aaaa…..”

Honey pushed away the chopstick Yuyu was holding to his mouth and looked away. Sprawled ahead was the spread of dishes the two girls had specifically brought for their brother, knowing he had barely eaten anything since Suyin left. However, Honey didn’t look; neither at food nor at his precious sisters.

Though he pretended not to be bothered by Suyin, his silence was worth a thousand words. His mood ricocheting lower and lower.

To not let Wang Shi worried for him, he even forced himself to eat only to vomit it every time. The melancholy was like the forbidden cloak he can’t let fall to the floor, and though he holds it, the familiar warmth and love was missing, yet he clings to it. In silence.

“I’m also hungry, bro. Can we please eat lunch together?” Lan cried. Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%!d(string=16552540406472305)/mummy_%!d(string=51478156602829047) for visiting.

“Honey bro, you are scaring us. Please talk to us.” Little Yuyu sniffed, noticing Wang Shi walking in. “Uncle Shishi, Honey bro is bullying us.”

Wang Shi placed a gentle hand at Yuyu’s head and took her in his lap. Lan sat down beside Honey. “Pretty sister is very bad. Look what she did. I hate her.”

“No, she’s not bad.” Wang Shi said. “Let me tell you a story…..” Wang Shi’s gaze drifted to Honey only to see his stoic expression. From behind Dr. He Jeff patted Wang Shi’s shoulder as if hinting him something.

Whatever progress Honey had made was already going down the drain. Turning worse. Honey was at the initial stage of cooping into his shell, closing his heart. It’s best to intervene on time and let him know the truth before things slip out of hand.

“It’s the story of a king, his little prince, and an angel. Many many years ago, there lived a king who was loved and praised by his people. He had everything in his life, but love. He was the lonely king. One day God blessed him with a little prince and princess.

The king was overjoyed with happiness, he was no more lonely after all. He had no other wish left in this world. But his happiness was short-lived when he found out his kids were born sick and needed two golden hearts to heal.

Poor king searched the entire kingdom for the golden hearts but none had it. One night the little princess’s health turned worse, and she fell sick. She needed the golden heart urgently otherwise God would punish the King by taking back his princess.

Panicked king asked his ministers and people to bring the golden heart, but everyone returned empty-handed. The king failed. As a result, the God snatched his princess because the king failed to take care of her. The king was rendered useless in God’s eyes.”

Lan, “Poor king,”

Yuyu, “That’s not fair. God should have given him another chance. The king really tried searching for the golden heart. Uncle, what happened to the prince?”

Lan touched Honey’s cheek to get his attention, “Honey bro, do you think the king managed to get a golden heart for the prince?”

Honey’s silence was a disappointment for Lan. She bring her gaze back to Wang Shi who ran a comforting hand on her head, “Let’s continue…..”

“The king was desperate to get the golden heart for his prince and prevent the God from snatching him as well. It was then that the king announced in his kingdom that whoever brings him a golden heart will get half his kingdom. He tried to get the golden heart by taking advantage of people’s greed for his own gain.

And that’s exactly what happened. The King’s announcement fell on the ears of an evil woodcutter living in the forest. He knew where the golden heart was and wanted to use it to gain the king’s wealth.

An angel used to live near the river with her son. The golden heart was inside’s the angel’s son. So the woodcutter tricked the angel and cut off her son’s heart with her ax and brings it to the king.

The little prince was saved and the woodcutter got himself the half kingdom as promised by the king. But then God punished the angel for losing the golden heart and snatched her son from her. The angel begged, cried, but God didn’t listen to her pleas…..”

“Uncle Shishi, what happened? Why are you crying?” it was not until Yuyu touched Wang Shi’s cheek he knew he was crying.

“Stupid, he must be feeling bad for the angel. She got dragged for no reason.” Lan added. Wang Shi noticed Honey was looking at him. Of course, his son would never ignore his tears.

Yuyu, “But why are you telling us a story now? It’s not bedtime yet.”

“Do you think Angel was evil?” Yuyu and Lan both shook their heads. “Exactly. She was not evil but wronged by the king and the woodcutter both. The king used greed as a way to get the golden heart. The angel of this story is your Pretty sister and I’m the king.”

“Huh?”

“Years after the incident, the king, little prince, and the angel met each other again.” Instead of answering, Wang Shi continued, “Angel couldn’t resist loving the little prince as he was a part of her son, and so as the prince couldn’t stop falling for the angel to get her motherly love. The king realized he too loves the angel and wants her to be his family.

Everything was going perfectly between them. But one day Angel came to know that her son’s golden heart was inside the prince. It was because of the king’s order the woodcutter stole the heart from her and bring it to the king to get his kingdom.

In rage, she demanded the king to give her the little prince as the golden heart once given can’t be taken back. To her, the little prince was her son, her own flesh and blood.

“Oh my God, “Yuyu jumped, “You said Angel is a pretty sister and you are the king. This means Honey bro has the golden heart.”

“That’s why pretty sister was asking for Honey?” Lan concluded, “Pretty sister is not bad, but woodcutter is bad. He must be punished, and the angel should live happily with the king and the prince.”

“I agree with you, Lan,”

The two girls talked amongst each other, ignoring the silent communication between Wang Shi and Honey.

Honey, “Yuyu, Lan, I’m hungry. But this food has turned cold. Can you go to the cafeteria with Daiyu and bring something to eat?” The two jumped in their shoes and flew like fairies before Honey could change his mind.

“It’s the truth, ” Understanding Honey’s mind, Wang Shi didn’t delay another second, “The heart inside you is of Suyin’s son Zhao Fai. After your sister’s death, I offered a huge price to whoever gets me a heart to save you. By doing so, I did manage to save my own son, but Suyin lost hers.”

He cupped Honey’s face, “She’s not the one who hurt us or cheated our love, but it’s ME… YOUR FATHER, who did everything bad to her. No one can love you as much as your Ducky does. It is her natural motherly instincts that comes for you,” He places his hand at Honey’s heart, “For the one that’s still beating in here.”

The words washed away the inner clutter of Honey’s heart, giving him a clear view. He wept, hot tears glistened his cheeks, “T-That’s why she cried calling me Fai again and again and called me her baby? That’s why she was angry at you? That’s why I used to feel different for her? S-She is my mummy?” To his every question Wang Shi nodded.

“Dad, she is my mummy?”

Wang Shi nodded, “She is. You are our son.”

Fat tears dropped and Honey hugged Wang Shi, “She’s the mummy! She’s Honey’s real mummy! She’s my mummy!” holding his emotional state was impossible for Honey when he finally knew the ducky was not evil, but really an angel of his life. “Why didn’t you tell me this before? Ducky is my mummy, and she loves me the most. More than anyone in this world.”

Happiness comes for Honey upon a white horse, bringing the love in abundance. He was blessed with a new life. The life where he, Wang Shi, and Suyin would live happily with each other.

He broke the hug, “Take me to her. Now. Take me, take me…. She must be very angry, I was so rude to her….. take me to her…. We will live as a happy family from now on.”A beautiful smile bloomed on his withered face. It was a new hope. “Don’t sit. Let’s go.”

“Honey–”

Hastily Honey jumped his way to the office and rummaged through the drawer where Wang Shi keeps his car keys. He was on cloud nine. He picked his father’s coat from the chair, “Don’t keep sitting. We have to bring Ducky back. C’mon. I will talk to her, she can’t stay angry with me for long. Leave this to me. Just take me–”

“I-I don’t know where she is.” Wang Shi blurted out, “Her whereabouts are unknown since she left the hospital. We are looking for her.”
