The Undefined Love - Chapter 383

Li Liaoyuan was just in time when the show began. He has witnessed how the woman was trying to manipulate the things around with the help of her so-called niece around.

He may not know what she was planning but he was still the experienced one in the stream. One thing he has learned from his life was, ‘It is better to keep your enemies in the front of your eyes, to know their tricks in better terms’. That would make you all prepared to counter their tricks before they hurt you fatally.

Seeing them leaving there would be no way he would be letting them leave. Even if he has to take the worst step to stop them, he would eagerly oblige. So interrupting the scene he had decided to reveal the truth.

“Rebecca, don’t you feel regret in your life? Are you still planning to go away, abandoning you daughter behind”, he asked in an accusing tone leaving everyone in a death shock.

Rebecca has never thought that this old man will ever dare to reveal this truth so suddenly. She was sure that he would be taking it to his grave, but now seeing him reveal it so suddenly she has no idea what was actually going in his head.

Xue Ping Ruo was also shocked, not knowing how to make good changes in the plan since they have not thought something like this will happen.

Lifen was also taken aback by her grandfather’s words. She looked at the woman with a confused look and then turned to ask her grandfather. “Grandpa, what do you mean? Why are you accusing Aunt Rebecca like this? Who is her daughter? Why would she abandon her?”

She worded out all the questions she had in her head, not caring how desperate she was sounding with those questions. She was feeling really anxious, not knowing why her heart was getting clenched at those words?

Her body started getting shrouded with the chilled airs of nervousness. Her legs started feeling slight shivers, when suddenly a warm arm got wrapped around her shoulders giving her the warm which she needed the most at this moment.

Tilting her head to the side, she found the only man who has the ability to prover her with such warmth. Deming has come down after is shower, dressed all perfectly in his office attire. His eyes held concern for her but at the same time also had an assurance of making everything go right.

It was the same assurance and security she wanted at this moment.

Li Lioaoyuan turned to look at her precious granddaughter. He has never planned to reveal this to her, knowing well that this will only give her the pain of ignorance. But now since he has no way left, he could only stake this to prevent her from the worst.

He can see the anxiety in her eyes and can also feel the shiver of nervousness she was feeling all over. Looking at her face, that has slightly gone pale, decided to focus on his words rather on her miserable state.

“This woman … the one whom you are taking as your savior is actually a heartless one in the world …” he paused as his eyes went to look back at the woman who was gritting her teeth inside. When his eyes met with her, he could feel the fierceness in it but that fierceness did not scare him even a bit. He looked at her and challenged her to try and beat his trick now.

Then reverting his gaze back to Lifen, he said “This woman is a true heartless person here. She is no savior here” When he said those words, his voice held a firmness in it, a deep calmness in it. A calmness that was building up a strong storm inside Lifen’s heart. She waited to hear the next coming words but before the old man could say anything Rebecca jumped in between.

“Mr. Li, why are you trying to say? Didn’t you say before that I am just a stranger here and you won’t involve yourself with me then why are you going back on your words?” her words were clearly making the suspense grow more.

Lifen did not pay heed to her words, rather tugged the sleeves of her grandfather lightly, to make him focus on her. “Grandpa, tell me what is it? I am feeling like you are hiding something from me. Tell me what is it?”

The old man looked at her and then said, “Yes, there is a secret here. At first I did not want to reveal it to you but now seeing you getting close to this woman, I can’t keep it more with me. The righteousness I had always preserved in my life is not letting me hide it anymore. Seeing you with this woman again, I could not control myself from letting you know that the woman who you are considering to be a stranger is actually no stranger to you rather your own birth mother”

“…”, those words were enough to freeze her at her place. She did not know how to react anymore.

The lady who she was considering a stranger … The woman who has continuously given her the sense of familiarity … was actually her mother! Her birth mother!

Her legs suddenly got weak and she lost her footing. She would have definitely fallen and slumped off the floor if Deming was not there beside her, holding her all tight with support.

She again thought of her grandfather’s words and then looked at the woman. Somehow she could not believe his words. How can that be possible? Though she knew that she had lost her parents at a very young of seven but still her memory was not that bad to not remember her own parent’s faces.

Looking at her she could easily tell that this woman was definitely not her mother with whom she has grown till the age of seven. She was definitely not her mother. How can she be her when the woman she remembered in her memories was someone else?

Not understanding the memory’s linkage with her grandfather’s words, she asked “Grandpa! How can this be possible? I clearly remembered Mumma from my childhood memories. Aunt Rebecca can’t be her. And even I was there when my mother took her last breath. Your words are just not possible. She just can’t be my mother”

The old man looked at the woman and then turned again to face her granddaughter. Then looking at Deming, he said. “Xiao LiLi, you are right. She is not your mother, who has looked after you for seven years. But she is that heartless woman, who has left the newborn you behind just because she had some baseless suspicions on your father.:”

“…”, she was being left behind by her own mother? She was a child that was being abandoned by her own mother!

She could not control her tears from rolling down. The pain of being abandoned by the one whom she should have been the closest was making her condition worse. She looked dejectedly at the woman who had become her savior a few weeks before but now she was coming to know that she was not only her savior but also her mother who had abandoned her just after she was born.

“Why? Why did you do that? What did I do to get such a treatment?” she asked not knowing what else she should do at this moment?

Deming looked at her in such condition and tried to calm her. Rubbing her back lightly, he tried his best. “Lifen, Get a hold of yourself. You can’t be like this” But he knew that his words would not make any good changes to her.

Though he has never felt such pain in his life but looking at her like this he can guess how painful she was feeling in her heart. Not able to look at her like this, his blazing fiery eyes turned to look at the woman.

And at that instant, for the first time Rebecca could feel the dangerous aura that she has always heard. Though she has not believed it before but looking at him now she could understand what those descriptive words about him actually meant.

“Lifen you are getting things wrong. You don’t have to blame yourself like this. That time I had no idea about what I was doing. I was suffering from an emotional breakdown, not getting how I should take my life further. Please don’t blame yourself like this” Rebecca tried again to take the reins of the drama back in her hand. As she said those words, big drops of tears rolled down her eyes making its best try to make people believe.

Lifen looked at her and said, “Emotional breakdown? Was I the reason for that?” Rebecca shook her head in denial as she said his words internally, ‘No you were the cause but the reason that pain itself’

“Then what did I do to deserve such punishment?” she asked again.
