CHAPTER 422: CHAPTER 421: AN JIAYOU’S BACKGROUND

In the end, they agreed on the terms, Dad’s first wife and child continued to stay in the house. Originally, Dad’s first wife was the only granddaughter of his father’s old comrade, who had grown up with Dad. After Dad divorced that wife, Dad did not agree for her to continue staying at home. But this time, Dad’s father used the issue of Dad and Mom as leverage, and left Dad’s first wife at home. None of us could imagine Mom’s feelings at that time.

Later, Dad and Mom truly became husband and wife. The following decade became the most stifling time of Mom’s life, yet she endured it just for me and Dad.

This life of happiness and unhappiness passed by for over a decade. When I was sixteen, Dad suddenly passed away. I rushed back from the United States, finally, with Mom’s help, stepped out of the shadow but forgot that someone needed to soothe Mom’s heartbreak. Shortly after, Mom left home without saying goodbye.

The reason was simple, she was forced to leave home by Dad’s father and Dad’s first wife. What I never understood was why Mom left home without ever trying to find me.

A year later, what I saw in the hospital was the last of Mom. I also learned the reason behind it. It turned out to still be Dad’s father and Dad’s first wife interfering.

After Mom left, her only last wish was to be with Dad forever, but Dad’s father and Dad’s first wife refused to agree. Helplessly, I had to take Mom away, found a place closest to Dad, and put her temporarily there. Unexpectedly, I left her there for so many years.

Lin Mubai heard this and choked up, "Wife, don’t say anymore, don’t say anymore."

An Nan just continued to shake her head, "Later I left and started wandering around the world. Then, I received a call from home, Brother unexpectedly passed away, I hurried back and saw Little Jia You.

You might find it strange, Brother passed away, according to common reasoning, Jiayou should have been showered with love, so why were Dad’s father and Dad’s first wife unwilling to want him.

This indeed had been Lin Mubai’s constant question, so he nodded.

An Nan continued to explain, "Because Jiayou was not Brother’s child at all, Jiayou was the child left behind by Brother’s first love who was violated, and the ones who caused all this were the two people closest to Grandpa. That girl later couldn’t take it and killed herself, Brother threatened with his own life to bring the child home.

But as soon as he left, this child again became the subject of their disdain."

"So later, did you take Jiayou and leave that home?" Lin Mubai asked softly.

"Yes, I left, because Mom left a will stating that I could only inherit everything at the age of twenty-eight. At that time, I couldn’t stay another day in that home, so I took Jiayou and left. They quickly cut off my living expenses, but I had the money Mom gave me. Yet I didn’t dare to sit idly and squander it, so for the first time in my life, I started using my clever mind to find ways to make money. It seemed my luck wasn’t bad, and afterward, life improved quite a bit."

Behind these facts, An Nan hid part of the truth.
