Music For My Unspoken Words…. Chase Me For Your Second Chance - Chapter 384
“People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that’s what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.” —- Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love
“Louie, you need to tell us everything, as in everything! You have to say to us from the top, I need to know what your plan is about your situation! Your grandfather and I need to know everything! We got messages and video clips about Luna, your children, you and Luna dancing, are you two a couple already? We also received five paintings, portraits of you and Luna as a couple and as a family. We need to know if the three of you went to City Wise. And where the hell is Yuan?!” Clara once again shouted for she can’t control her anger and anxiety anymore.
“Grandma, if I tell you everything from the beginning I need you to listen, don’t interrupt or whatsoever in between my or our story. I will tell you everything that we have experienced and encountered in the past few months,” says Louie as he looks at his grandmother straight in her eyes.
Clara and Rafael both nod their heads and they listened very intently as Louie and his friends recalled everything that happened from the moment they met Luna as Autumn Vallini. They even told them the things that happened at the Chen Corporation, the annual party, and every event that pertains to Luna. All details were revealed. Even the revelation about Sofia’s dirty tricks from the start and the other secrets behind Lily Cheung’s so-called kidnapping – elope – demise, the involvement of Mia his mother, and most of all the reunion of his father with Lily and Allen. Ethan and Kim also told them the date of birth of the twins and how does Luna become a Vallini to Vendari. All of the information’s that they have got and informed of them by the HADES people, they said to the Chen Elders.
Ethan also told them about Yuan getting married to one of Luna’s friends and a member of the royal family, and Harry gets engaged to one of the finest and renowned doctors at City Wise, the only thing that they can’t tell them is about the HADES organization because they are afraid for their lives. Kim on the other hand also recalled the things that happened while they spent their New Year’s Celebration in the City Wise, the things that they do with the twins. He also boasts to the elders about how intelligent the kids of Louie and Luna are.
Rafael and Clara were both silent as their mind tries to process the information’s that they had just heard. The things that just had happened are quite unbelievable, “So the main reason why the company owned by the Vallini’s and Vendari’s wants to have a collaboration and invested in our company is because of Luna? Do they seek revenge for everything that you and Sofia had done to her?” Clara asks.
“Yes grandmother, they also want to seize the Su Corporation. I understand why Luna and her new family want revenge, I had done so many awful things to her and I will gladly accept her punishment. I also understood why my kids are angry with me, Luna didn’t hide anything and everything from the kids. ” Louie replied.
“Grandma, Grandpa, I know it is my fault and I regret it now. If only I listened to the inner voice of my heart, I shouldn’t leave Luna or have our marriage got ruined by Sofia. I shouldn’t listen to her, to her mom, and Mom’s words. I should have been open-minded and I should have believed her more. I know that you know the things I have done during my marriage with her, but you didn’t bat an eyelid towards me, you always wished that I will soon love her. I fell in love with her more when I touched her for the first time, I am so happy that I was her first, first in everything but I am also her worst nightmare. My kids hate me because of that, and they also feel disgusted and they despise me for marrying Sofia. Grandpa, I love Luna so much, I can’t live without her. The day after our divorce, I realize that I lost her, totally lost her, especially when she decided to leave on Christmas Day. I had plans that year, I planned to let her live in one of my ċȯndȯminiums, and I will always visit her every time I like. You can call me selfish, but even I marry Sofia, I planned to let Luna be my lover, she is mine, my soulmate. For me, Luna is the only woman for me, she is all mine, but I messed up” Louie’s voice was heard once more and his tears start to flow like a stream of water.
Rafael Chen felt flabbergasted by his words, he was very ashamed of everything that his grandson had just stated. Rafael could also see from his peripheral vision his wife’s reaction as she glared at Louie. “WHAT!?! Do you want to make Luna become a mistress after you marry Sofia? Are you out of your Mind Louie?! You degrade Luna if that happens and I thank God that it never happened since I myself, will beat you unto death if done that. You are not just a selfish person, but you are also a coward and sick. Your mind is sick to make your ex-wife be your mistress!” Clara shouted out of anger. Clara’s ċhėst huff as she speaks and glared daggers at her grandson. Ethan and Kim already felt the tension between the three, but the plans of Louie that he just said were not taboo for the two of them. They knew about those plans, Louie already had a place for Luna and even a job for her in case of emergency if Sofia finds out about their relationship.
Rafael inhaled deeply and releases it out loud. “Louie, my Grandson, I know you are very regretful for what happened and so we are. You see, when you love someone, you love them every day, and there are no choices or excuses on your part. You will love them on their good or bad days, and love them a little more extra on their worst days. You will love everything about them – the way they blush almost immediately when you compliment them or the way their voice almost cracks when they laugh too hard or even with just a simple smile every time you compliment them or remember a simple event in your lives. You will love and appreciate how they pay attention to even the little details and never shy away from asking questions. You will love them unconditionally, even their flaws, too. Sometimes, they bottle up everything inside and don’t tell you what’s wrong and it makes you doubt everything, they tend to mask everything so that you will not worry, maybe because of trust. And they tend to ask the questions can I trust you enough?”
“Louie, Luna is a very special kind of a woman, that’s why we choose her for you. There are days when you are so occupied with work that you don’t make time for her, but she secretly sees and contacted some investors in our company. She manages to close some deals with some companies that we have collaborative works, she uses her mother’s connection so that our company survives and she told those companies that whatever happens to her relationship with, they should not pull out their investments or get the collaboration void. She also manages to draw some designs for our jewelry, and we know that you believe Sofia when that bitch told you that she was the one who did it,” says Clara, and the three men were shocked upon hearing it as their faces turned pale and they look up and see Grandma Clara’s eyes.
“Louie, you didn’t appreciate Luna’s efforts to you, even during those close and sure deal contract that she was the one who manage to do it you never gave her even a simple dinner date. Louie, when you love someone, you never cancel your plans at the last minute and don’t even get time to make up for it. The woman you love may think that and makes them question if they don’t matter to you anymore. The misunderstandings may lead to small fights and not talking to each other and will lead to silence, a deafening silence where you are alone with thousands of questions plaguing your mind” Clara added.
“Grandson, as easy it is to fall in love, but, it takes an effort to keep that love alive. That doesn’t mean you go on dates every weekend or shower them with gifts, but instead, you give them space whenever needed while still being there for them, you are their rock when things got bumpy. And when things get tough, you remind each other what made you both fall in love or why you love that person. You don’t leave when they ask you to because you know that they are hurting, and you will always console them, you will always listen to them even though it may look like a never-ending story. You listen to their silence and hug them until they feel and get better. You will love them because you don’t give up on the people you love, you don’t just walk away when things get tough and rough for them, you sit beside them and play their favorite song, you stay with them through thick and thin, in good and bad, in success and failure, in sickness and in health, because you love them and that’s all that matters to make you not give up and stay. And despite everything, you will never give up on your built relationship, because when trust is broken, it is very hard to repair” Rafael stated in a very sad voice.
