Chapter 98
You never know what you have until you lose it, and once you lost it, you can never get it back ----Inspirationalboost.com
James went to Chen Residence as soon as he finishes his breakfast, he needs to talk to him about Sofia, his plans with his relationship to her. He is ready to give everything in his life now just to make things right. Maybe this is the atonement for all of his sins for his ex-wife and daughter whom he lost because of his infidelity and because he was been blinded by someone else. ??
When he arrives at the Chen Residence, he rushes to where Louie is, he didn''t ask the servants to announce his presence for he was afraid that Louie might kick him out. Louie and his friends are in deep conversation when he steps foot in the garden; they talk about Sofia and Luna, and Sofia''s wrongdoings. He heard everything…everything that Sofia has done to her life, about the abortions and other schemes she has plotted against Luna. He was also involved in some of the schemes that Sofia has done to his daughter, he knew about it especially the drowning incident at the annual party.
Kim looks up and saw James, "Louie, James is here" he informed Louie; as Louie looks where James is, he just smiled and bows his head as he was greeting him. "What brings you here James?" Louie asks him, he doesn''t call him father after what happened during the annual party of the Chen Company. Even his parents didn''t even call nor visits them, he knows that what Sofia has done made them feel disgusted over his daughter.
James: "Louie, can we talk? I need to discuss to you about Sofia? Your plans for your marriage."
Louie: "Come, seat down here….everything that you want to discuss with me can be brought up in front of them, as they are my witness."
James looks at the other persons who are present in the garden, "Bro, I think whatever you and your father in law need to talk about should be settled as a family" Ethan informed him. "No, Ethan…..I need witnesses to this. I don''t know what schemes they are planning for me right now" Louie replied and James chuckled as he shook his head. "I am not planning of something Louie, I know that you don''t trust me anymore because of what my daughter Sofia has done to you" James blurted out.
James: "Okay, if this what you want Louie. I just want to ask you, what are your plans for your marriage to my daughter?"
Louie: "I want a divorce James, I will give her the alimony that is right for her but I can''t stay married to her after what I have learned about the schemes she has done to me."
James: "You know that she can''t live without you, Louie….You are her life, she will hurt herself if you leave her."
Louie: ''That''s not my problem anymore James, I might be cruel and ruthless this time but knowing that she fooled me even before I got married to Luna, all the abortion thing….. I don''t think I can stay with her anymore."
James: "Did you know that the Vallini and the Vendari''s offered me they help me and gave me a huge sum of money. To help me with the Su Company, but their condition is.....for Sofia not to divorce you."
Louie and his friends were stunned for what they''ve just heard. They didn''t know that the Vallini and Vendari will do such things like that, "What will happen if Sofia will sign the divorce papers with Louie?" Ethan asks James; "I will pay 3 billion to the Vallini''s if Sofia divorces Louie. They invested 1 billion, but if Sofia divorces you we have to pay triple. It is the agreement that I, Suzy and Sofia have signed. I''m so desperate that time and didn''t hesitate to sign all doc.u.ments that they have presented" James explains to them.
Louie: "The total alimony that I am going to give you 4 billion alimony James so that you can pay the Vallini''s and Vendari''s for the 1 billion that they have invested in your company."
Kim: "Why did they help you and the condition is absurd?"
James: "Ms. Belikov said that they….the Vallini''s and Vendari''s saw how much Sofia loves Louie. That they might feel that Louie is Sofia''s life."
They are all silent for a moment, then the servant announces the arrival of Atty. Alberts and Harry Si''s secretary. Harry get the envelope that contains Sofia''s medical records, Harry even asks his secretary if he can do some research about Luna Su''s medical records at their hospital, his secretary nods his head and immediately leaves. Atty. Alberts was surprised to see James Su at the Villa of Louie, he seems not alarmed for the marriage situation of his daughter and Louie.
Harry handed the envelope to Atty. Alberts who gave him a perplexed look opened it and one by one read the report. "Louie do you know about this?" she asks her boss.
Louie: "I just got to know it today, do you think that I can be a grounds for divorce?"
Atty. Alberts: "Yes….. It can be but Louie I think you have to talk to Sofia first about this….. It seems that... she needs to voice out her side to you."
"I don''t want to talk to her, I don''t even want to see her," Louie said to Atty. Alberts but his eyes went to see James. He wants to see James'' reaction to his statement regarding his daughter. James sighs deeply, he can''t think properly for a moment; he knew that this will shock Sofia, he can''t do anything to defend her daughter….to justify all the things that she has done.
"I can''t blame Louie if this is the things he wants for Sofia. Let''s just settle everything, my mind is already drained to think on how to atone all my sins to Luna and my ex-wife. I am also tired of the demands of Suzy and Sofia" James informed them.
"Do you regret everything? I mean….. Mr. Su is not a good father to Luna….do you have regrets right now? And for you, Louie, do you have regrets for not opening your heart to Luna?" Rebecca Alberts asks both men. "Everything you do to Luna and her mother... comes back to you now but differently," she added.
"Louie, remember this; before you let these decisions that are in your mind; make sure it''s a choice that you won''t regret….again. Because not all decisions can be undone" Yuan told his friend. Louie nods his head, "Maybe I am just afraid to accept the fact that I love Luna that I''ve fallen in love with her. Now I just realize that; if you love someone, we must tell them how we feel, we must forget the rules or the fears that we may have. The fear of how ridiculous we maybe because what truly peculiar thing we can do is passing up on an opportunity to tell them…..to tell someone that your heart belongs and invested to them" Louie said while he is looking from nowhere.
James can see the depressing look of Louie, he was very devastated for giving up Luna, for letting her go.
Harry is just silently listening to his friends'' revelation, "In the end, he only regret the chances he didn''t take, the relationship he was afraid to have with Luna, and the decision that he didn''t make" he said and only Ethan and Kim heard it.
James: "Louie, son….never make decisions out of anger, I know you are angry with Sofia….. I know you despise her right now…..but if you want to finish your marriage with her….. I will help you but promise me one thing. Promise me, that if you found out anything about Luna, about the Moon…..please inform me."
Louie chuckled but he nods his head as for what James said to him. "Rebecca, please do write the divorce paper. Finish it today for I will give it to James. James, please help me with Sofia. Let her sign the paper…. I will help you with the money to the Vallini''s and Vendari''s."
Rebecca sigh as she started to scribble the divorce paper "again", James looks at Louie and chuckled, "He wants to get rid of Sofia. But if this is what he wants, and if this is the only way for them to see Luna again; he will help him, this is James'' thoughts as he watches Louie giving instructions to Rebecca Alberts.
While Louie is giving instructions to Rebecca, Yuan got a message from a certain M&Z; the same name who sends Louie the videos and other information about Luna and his children.
Dear Ex-Husband Louie,
I want you to see me, I want you to recognize me and to remember what I am to you. I want you to regret what you''ve lost, and realize what you''ve never got back again.
Ex-wife,
Luna
Yuan knew the identities of M&Z, he also knew that the twins'' are torturing again the mind of their father who is his friend but still he can''t tell Louie about them. He promises Luna and the twins'' about it; he promises his newfound family that he will protect them. Louie saw Yuan''s face turned pale as he read the message through his phone, Yuan holds Louie''s phone every time he is talking to his lawyer.
Louie stretches his hand as he gestured Yuan to give him his phone back, Yuan didn''t want to hide it to Louie. He gave Louie''s phone to him and he lets Louie see the message. Louie just smiled, "Whoever sent this message, I''ll prove to them that I can win Luna''s heart again. I will fight for my rights of being Luna''s husband" he said and enough for everyone to hear it.
