Chapter 178 The One Mom Cared About Most Was Daniel
Cassie said, covering her face and weeping.
Whenever she was with Ken, she always wore a smile on her face. They seldom quarreled with each other because of anger, let alone cry so sadly like now.
Her heart was as painful as being cut by a knife.
"Cassie..."
Before Ken could say anything, Cassie suddenly raised her head, put her arms around his neck and kissed him on the lips.
Ken was stunned and didn't know what to do.
Although Cassie was married, he could not forget her. At night, their sweet scenes would always appear in his mind.
However, no matter how much he missed her or how angry he was, he didn't want to do anything behind Shawn's back.
Because he knew that no matter what request he made, Cassie would accept him.
After all, it was true that she was having a hard time now.
But he dared not to do so. He also didn't want to do that.
If others knew it, Cassie would suffer the most. Gossip was a fearful thing. At that time, her life would be worse than death.
He knew that Cassie had a very painful and suffering time, but he did not expect her to be so bold and so active.
When a woman threw herself on a man, any man would be slightly touched, let alone a woman whom he loved to the core.
They had been together for so long, but they had never done anything crossing the line. Now Cassie was so open to him and it seemed that she couldn't wait to do it. As a normal and abstinent man, how could he restrain himself?
That night, they were so excited, so passionate and fully devoted.
They had thought that they would not have any contact after they had that beautiful night. But what they didn't expect was that Cassie got pregnant after that night. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
The memory slowly came back to him. After wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Ken said in a hoarse voice, "That was because we wanted to give Irene a healthy and safe life, so we didn't dare to tell her. Luckily, Irene looked like Cassie. She was beautiful and considerate. If it wasn't Darren, she wouldn't have left the Xiao family." Or she wouldn't have died like that.
The biggest regret in his life was that Ken was unable to claim his family connection with Irene, nor heard her call him father.
He didn't hate Darren before, he just thought that he couldn't give her daughter a stable and happy life. However, it was her own choice, he couldn't blame anyone.
However, Darren had brought back Ivy and Ellie. They not only hurt his daughter, but also his granddaughter. How could he sit by and watch an outsider hurt his family?
After hearing Ken say so much, even Jessie could see the helplessness and sorrow in his heart.
Many things had been out of his control. It was resentment that drove him to where he was today.
If it weren't for the fact that Shawn took Cassie away, then this matter wouldn't have happened.
Anyway, where there's a will, there was a way. If he didn't have the devil in his heart and if he didn't want to do it himself, nobody could force him.
Maybe others were responsible for it, but he had to be responsible for it himself.
"Grandpa, it has been so many years, it's very tired for you to keep it in mind all the time. Why don't you learn to give up?" Jessie persuaded. Hating someone was tired. That's only a punishment for oneself. That's not a wise way for life. Moreover, he had hated others for more than a decade. What he did was just torturing himself!
However, the one he hated didn't even know it at all.
It was said that the living people were the most painful.
Shawn was dead, and Cassie was dead. Even if he had killed all the people who once hurt him, he was still the only one who felt most painful in the end.
However, it's very simple to say.
Ken wanted to forget her, but he just couldn't.
He had been in love with Cassie for decades. But it was because of love that he had hatred inside.
That kind of hatred, had already spread all over his body and was infiltrated into his bone marrow. It merged with his body and mind. As long as he was alive, no matter where he was, this kind of hatred would follow him all his life, like a magic spell.
"Grandpa, do you know what mom cared most when she was alive?" She gazed at Ken and cautiously said, "My mother told me to be a good sister before Daniel was born. She wanted me to take good care of him and protect him. In particular, when we found out that my younger brother was cerebral palsy, I
saw my mother hold Daniel tightly as if she was afraid that someone would take him away from her. I would never forget how desperate and sad she was all my life. So, I swore at that time that I would make more money and become stronger, so that I could protect him and love him as my mother did. But I lost him."
Crystal tears filled her eyes. Jessie didn't cry, just sobbing silently.
Looking at the little girl in her early twenties, the softness in Ken's heart ached.
He held her petite body gently and took her in his arms.
Jessie begged with a sobbing voice, "Grandpa, can you help me find Daniel? He was the apple of my mother's eye. Daniel was the one she cared most. I know. Mom didn't want to die. She said that she would take Daniel back from abroad one day. Our family would never be apart. It's all my fault. I didn't protect him well and lost him. I didn't fulfill my mother's last wish. I didn't take care of him. It's all my fault..."
Each of Jessie's words was like a hammer hitting Ken's heart heavily. He felt so hurt that he almost suffocated.
"Jessie, that's not your fault."
"No, it's all my fault. I don't have the ability. Grandpa, please, please help me find Daniel for grandma and mom, okay?"
Faced with Jessie's pleading, Ken admitted that his heart was softened.
Although Jessie was twenty-one years old now, her voice of cordiality when she called him "Grandpa" had thoroughly disturbed his originally cold heart.
"Okay. I will help you find Daniel."
Hearing what Ken said, Jessie immediately smiled and happily put her arms around Ken's neck. She put her head on his shoulder and said, "Thank you, Grandpa."
Ken sighed, stretching out his hand to touch her black hair.
'Jessie, you were so clever!'
