Chapter 400
Chapter 400
As Bethany listened to Eden's words, she suddenly remembered something from the past.
She recalled the past carefully and realized that she had never treated Eden well.
The moment Eden woke up and opened her eyes after she was taken back by Bethany, she was forced to wash clothes and sweep the floor!
She was very sensible even though she was young!
She had lost her memories and could not remember who she was after being run over by Bethany.
Eden insisted on having the name Cyan when Bethany brought her to obtain a domicile.
Bethany had originally given her a random name and had never cared about it since Eden was taken off from the street.
Bethany was overwhelmed by the loan sharks at that time and she hit and scolded Eden every day. However, Eden was strong!
Bethany eventually found that Eden was very flexible. She could wash clothes, cook, sweep and even go to the mountain to collect firewood.
They lived in the old forest on the mountain at that time. Since they didn't have gas, they could only use firewood to cook! © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Eden had to do a lot of things when she got up in the morning. She had to do that for the whole year and Bethany gradually got used to her obedience.
She treated Eden like a maid after that.
She only needed to give Eden a meal and responded to her when she called her mother.
Eden would happily help her do many things after that!
Bethany looked at Eden at the moment and thought of the happy look Eden had when she was a child. Eden was innocent and romantic. She would be happy for a few days if Bethany responded to her.
Bethany suddenly realized that she had trampled on a heart that loved her.
Eden had always been more considerate when compared to Myra.
Eden would stay up with Bethany all night when she was sick. Myra had never done such a thing before.
Myra had always liked to bully Eden but Bethany always turned a blind eye to it.
Bethany was also aware that Antony who was in his puberty period had nasty thoughts towards Eden.
However, she could not tolerate imperfection at that
time.
Eden was a time bomb in her life. She was afraid that Eden would get back her memory one day and she would be doomed when that happened.
She had always treated Eden badly because of this knot in her heart!
She raised her eyes slightly, looked at Eden who was crying and felt a trace of guilt in her heart.
She smiled bitterly and said, "Eden, go back! Don't ever come back again. I believe you don’t want to see me again in your life!"
"I won't apologize to you! Even if I apologize to you a hundred times, the past has already happened and it can't be fixed!"
Eden looked at Bethany with red eyes. There were complicated emotions in her eyes. She smiled and said, "Mom, I was the one who released information about your matters. Don't you hate me?" Eden would not apologize to Bethany too!
Things had turned out to be a little different from what she had expected.
She thought that her heart would be cold when she confronted with matters relating to the Gienger family.
However, she had overestimated herself and she was unable to be ruthless.
Therefore, she didn't tell anyone that she had been knocked down and was taken away by Bethany that year!
Bethany shook her head slightly and said indifferently, "Eden, this matter will come to light sooner or later. I won't blame you for doing that!
Thank you for calling me Mom even at this time!"
Bethany would still have hope on Brody if he hadn't betrayed her but now...
Eden smiled slightly and choked up, "Mom, you're right. You have raised me!"
Bethany nodded slightly. "You are a filial daughter but you are not my biological daughter after all. You can also understand my feelings by standing in my shoes."
Eden did not agree with the statement. She said in a choked voice, "Mom, I met my current mother seven years ago after I left the Gienger family. She is different from you. We are still not related by
blood but she treats me better than her own!"
Eden looked at Bethany with a smile as she spoke. After that, she got up, pushed the stool and headed out.
Bethany looked at her thin back and called out to her suddenly.
"Eden, haven't you always wanted to know where I
ran over you?"
Eden stopped and looked back without turning her head.
Bethany closed her eyes slightly and said, "I know you didn't reveal that I had run over you that year."
Eden stood at the same spot quietly.
Bethany opened her eyes slowly, looked at Eden and said apologetically, "It was raining heavily the night I ran over you. I drove around the city to avoid the loan sharks at that time.
I don't know the name of the place where I ran over you.
However, you were wearing nice clothes at that time, therefore I believe you came from a decent family.
Your parents had probably tried to find you back then. I believe you would be able to find your biological parents if you reveal the matter to the public!
I burnt your clothes and your beautiful crystal hair clip in order to destroy the evidence back then.
You had a strawberry-flavored lollipop in your hand but you refused to let it go!
I have nothing that could prove your identity. You can only reveal the incident that day in order to find your biological parents!"
Bethany recalled that she was very anxious that night. She panicked even more when she ran over Eden.
The area was inhabited by rich people and there were many separated villas under the spotlights. Eden should be a child from a rich family!
Eden closed her eyes painfully and eased her emotions before saying, "That's not necessary. I won't tell anyone about what had happened that night.
After all, I had called you mother for more than ten years. I truly regarded you as my mother all those years!
As for my identity, I believe I will meet my parents one day if we are destined to meet."
Eden walked out with tears streaming down her face.
Bethany was slightly stunned and sorrow welled up in her heart when she heard that.
She seemed to realize something suddenly and shouted, "Eden, Eden..."
Bethany looked at Eden's thin back and called out agitatedly, tears welling up in her eyes.
However, Eden had hurried out.
When Bethany saw that, she cried agitatedly, "Eden, I was the one who had let you down. I'm sorry. I'm
really sorry..."
Eden paused for a moment when she heard Bethany' s cries and apologies before she ran out!
All the hatred in her heart seemed to disappear the moment she heard Bethany’s apologies.
The anger that had been constantly developing seemed to have vanished at that moment.
She had suffered the pain for seven years. She suddenly discovered that the seven years of pain was not as painful as it was at the moment!
If Bethany had no desire to gain profit and she had no desire for a home, she would be able to leave the Gienger family without hesitation at that time.
