If he could have heard these words earlier or come to his senses earlier, he would have realized his feelings for Carolien and not made all the mistakes he did!
He clenched his fists. Elijah understood why his dad would sigh mournfully when he spoke of him and his mother. He regretted his internal struggles, his inability to cut off his previous relationship and his soft heartedness, eventually being tricked into making mistakes. He regretted not communicating with his wide and in the end, losing the chance to talk to her. Yes, what he understood of his father was so deeply ingrained in his mind. Although his mother did not speak ill of him, he was not a fool. He could sense what was happening and believed only what he heard and saw, never knowing that there was another truth to that.
As he looked at the butler and his uncle, before looking at his mother, he felt sad. Just how many people were affected by the arranged marriage and crisis all those years ago?
It was a life-and-death situation!
But now, looking back, at that time, wasn't it a simple matter if it was solved by an arranged marriage?
In this life, there were choices to be made. Some were right and some were wrong. No matter what, it was more important to stay alive even though it was hard!
Before he could come to his senses, he heard clattering sounds. When he looked up, he saw that Doreen had rushed to the safe, pushing the books to ground. As the books clattered to the ground, the recording pen also fell to the ground.
"Lies! Lies!"
"It's all a lie! I don't believe it! You're all lying to me! Where's my treasure? Where's my assets worth billions?"
"He said that he would take care of me for the rest of my life! Even if he's gone..."
"It's mine! It's mine! Everything he has is mine. The empire he gained by sacrificing our love... It should belong to me! He left me a lot of money. What I can see is mine, what I can't see should also be mine!"
"It's mine!"
"Yes! There must be something! It's just not found yet! There must be more to this!"
"Bring it out! Give it to me! I did it. So it's mine!"
"Impossible!"
"You tricked me! You worked together to cheat me! You must have tricked me for my money. My money, my stock! You even tricked the dead. I am the heir of all this. Give it back to me!"
......
After smashing the safe, Doreen targeted the desk crazily, trying to find documents. Her hand trembled as she held a pile of white paper that was scattered on the ground. She picked it up and looked through them one by one, and then crumpling them up. She was like a madman, wandering around in the room. For a moment, everyone was shocked. They took a step back as she moved in their direction, watching her making a mess of the room.
Kim Mi-chi chased behind her, crying and looking at the scene with confusion. She didn't know what was going on at all. "Mom, don't be like this, Mom—"
She reached out and tried to stop her, but every time she touched her, she flung her hand away. "Get out of my way!"
