My Alleged Husband

Chapter 658: Chapter 636: Adding Fuel to the Fire

”Child, have you truly never considered that you ought to empathize with your parents? They might have made such a decision because they had no other choice. Why must you bury this matter deep in your heart over and over and never forget it? Don’t you know that living this way will be exhausting and you will never be able to forget the fact that your parents abandoned you? How can you start a new life and live happily with your family and your wife if you keep these thoughts in the deepest corner of your heart because you fear recalling the scars deeply hidden there?”

”Grandpa, haven’t I thought about it?” I soothed myself over and over in my heart, regardless of the reasons my parents had for abandoning me. I should choose to forgive them because they gave me life. If not for them, how would I have ended up like this today? But I really don’t know what attitude I should adopt to face them when they keep hurting me, rejecting their own son, which only adds to my pain. I also wish for a stable life and want my parents to stay by my side, but I’ve never received their love. What do they really think of me?

I clearly understand that perhaps I will never be able to have my parents’ love like other families do, nor can I have a complete family. However, I still hope—wish to see my hopes realized. My heart longs for heaven to be a bit fairer to me, to not let me continuously suffer the harm brought by my parents. No matter how others hurt me, it doesn’t ache inside. But when it’s my parents causing the pain, it feels like my heart is being cut with knives. They are my parents, after all! Why are they so unwilling to see things from my perspective, to consider how deeply hurt I am by their unilateral, stubborn decisions? Why won’t they ever think about their own son’s happiness or how his life should go on?

Remembering the things they said and did when I wasn’t married yet, I’m still scared. I can’t understand why they would have such thoughts to ruin the relationship between me and my wife. Do they regard my wife as unworthy just because she comes from a common family? But isn’t everyone in this world born common? No one is born wealthy. People from all walks of life work their way up with their own hands. Why then should there be any need to trouble those from humble backgrounds repeatedly?

Actually, you know too. You saw all these happen, and you know why my parents acted so ruthlessly. I never expected that they would disregard the deep feelings of their own son, letting me feel profound misery. I only wish my parents would love their own son a little bit more. Even the tiniest bit of affection would suffice—I’d trade my life for it. But they never gave me the slightest understanding. What on earth do they think of me, their own son, deep in their hearts?

Ah!

Child, how should your grandpa explain to you so that you can understand every word he says to you? This world is not just filled with hatred, but also love. You have your own son, your wife, you have every capital to live a happy life now, why do you still want to have conflict with your parents? Whatever they’ve sacrificed or abandoned, one day they will understand what they have truly lost, and isn’t that the best torture for them? Yet now, by keeping these matters deep within your heart and recalling them over and over, you are merely torturing yourself. No one else will feel sorry for you—your heart is filled with scars—does anyone care? Others only care about money and benefits. In their eyes, you don’t count for anything. Why then are you so foolish as to keep hurting yourself? Don’t you know this causes worry for your wife, your son, and your grandpa? We are your family, and no matter what changes might occur in this life, that fact will never change.”]
